Super Gene Ⅱ: Evolution

Lin Shen looked at Chi Tianai in front of him with a bizarre expression, as she clearly had no idea that she was the beauty in the center of a stratagem—an innocent person.

"There are no interesting people here, just me, a boring one." Lin Shen looked at Chi Tianai and asked, "What's your name, and where is your home?"

Chi Tianai, having no secrets to hide, candidly replied, "My name is Chi Tianai, and I live in the Tianyan Lake Star System."

"Tianyan Lake's Chi Family? What relation is General Chi Wuxin to you?" Lin Shen exclaimed in shock.

After all, he made his living among the Celestial Race and had some understanding of the elite families.

For a local lord like the Chi Family of Tianyan Lake, it was impossible for Lin Shen not to know them.

The former Celestial Master Institute had been the eyes and ears of the Heavenly Emperor, eavesdropping across all regions, especially places like the Chi Family at Tianyan Lake, where the institute had spies.

Even now, field agents from the Celestial Master Institute were still infiltrating the Chi Family at Tianyan Lake.

Lin Shen scrutinized Chi Tianai carefully, recalling that he had previously heard about a genius girl from Tianyan Lake's Chi Family, apparently named Chi Tianai. She was renowned for her quick wit and ability to master any skill instantly, and she was a natural Ascender.

Though not as famous as Di Esi, she had some notoriety within the Celestial Race.

Lin Shen had heard that Chi Tianai was sweet, attractive, and extremely gentle.

The main reason he knew of Chi Tianai was that many elite figures from Sky Pinnacle Star had proposed to the Chi Family, hoping to marry Chi Tianai, but all had been rejected by Chi Wuxin.

Thus, the rumor on Sky Pinnacle Star was that Chi Tianai of the Tianyan Lake Chi Family was likely favored by the Imperial Family, destined to be a prince's Princess Consort eventually.

There were even rumors that Emperor Tianshu, that old fox, was taken with Chi Tianai and wanted to take her as an Imperial Consort.

"That's our family's patriarch," Chi Tianai replied nonchalantly, seeing no need to conceal this.

Lin Shen's expression became even more complex as he thought to himself, "That old bastard Tian Jiuyou has actually brought Chi Tianai of the Tianyan Lake Chi Family here; trapping us both, he definitely is up to no good."

"A man and a woman trapped in this desolate Snow Valley with nothing around, the woman sweet and adorable, the man handsome and dashing—something is bound to happen if this continues. Even if I can control myself, facing me, an outstanding man, every day, Chi Tianai might find it difficult to maintain her composure. If I were to do something with Chi Tianai, wouldn't that spell trouble with the Imperial Family for me in the future among the Celestial Race? It's too sinister," Lin Shen frowned.

Lin Shen felt he had seen through Tian Jiuyou's malicious plot, yet he had little confidence in his own self-control.

"What's your name?" Chi Tianai asked as she looked at Lin Shen.

"Hmph, you don't need to know my name, just know that I am no friend but a foe of Tianyan Lake, our enmity as deep as the sea. Seeing you are but a young lady, I will spare you for now, but don't provoke me; if you upset me, I might kill you first to settle some interest," Lin Shen felt it necessary to keep his distance from Chi Tianai to avoid future regrets.

"From now on, you live in that room, and this side is where I live. Without my permission, do not come near," Lin Shen put on a fierce expression.

Chi Tianai stared blankly at Lin Shen for a long while before finally nodding, "I understand, do you have any other requirements?"

"That'll be all for now, don't bother me unless necessary," Lin Shen said as he prepared to return to his room.

"But... how should I address you in the future?" Chi Tianai asked softly.

"I've told you, don't bother me unless it's necessary, no need for formalities," Lin Shen turned and said fiercely.

"I know," Chi Tianai carefully asked again, "What grudge do you have against our family? Can you tell me?"

"You only need to know that my hatred for your family is as vast as the ocean, I hate that I can't flay and debone every single one of your family members to satisfy my hatred..." Lin Shen gritted his teeth, looking like he could devour someone.

Seeing Chi Tianai's slightly scared demeanor, Lin Shen snorted coldly, turned his head, and went back to the cabin.

"It seems I need to quickly find a way to escape. With Immortal Creatures rampant on Commerce Star, there are far too many. Finding another Temple to avoid them won't be easy," Lin Shen thought. He would have to start with the Ice Lotus.

If he could take care of the Ice Lotus, he could use the teleporter to leave this place and find someone to rescue them.

Chi Tianai, this little princess of the Chi Family from Tianyan Lake, must be driving the Chi Family of Tianyan Lake mad by now.

As long as he could send them a message, even if they did not care about his own safety, they would surely come to rescue Chi Tianai.

But dealing with the Ice Lotus was obviously not an easy task.

As an Immortal King-level creature, Lin Shen didn't even have the ability to harm it.

"It's a pity I can't comprehend the Ice Law; I will have to focus on other areas," Lin Shen decided to quickly master the Hidden Strength Technique.

Lin Shen practiced the Hidden Strength Technique in his room, hearing footsteps outside. It must be Chi Tianai, and judging by the direction of the footsteps, she was heading to his cabin.

Sure enough, after a while, Chi Tianai stood outside his cabin door, knocking and saying, "Mr. Enemy, are you resting?"

"I had already said, don't bother me unless it's necessary. Are you really not afraid of death?" Lin Shen said coldly as he pulled open the door, prepared to give Chi Tianai a good scare.

However, he saw Chi Tianai holding a bowl of hot porridge exuding a salty aroma, inside which he could also see some green vegetable bits and minced meat.

"Mr. Enemy, I made this porridge, and I brought a bowl for you," Chi Tianai said with a smile.

"Where did you get these ingredients?" Lin Shen asked, staring at the porridge, swallowing a mouthful of saliva involuntarily.

Although he no longer needed to eat, the eating habits he had developed over the past twenty years were not easily changed, especially when the porridge indeed smelled very appetizing.

"I brought them from outside. There's plenty more, I can't finish it all by myself, so I'll share some with you when I cook next time," Chi Tianai said.

"You're trying to find an opportunity to poison me?" Lin Shen said coldly.

"Why would I do such a thing?" Chi Tianai shook her head and said, "I just think Mr. Enemy, you must be very pitiful, living here all alone; it must be very painful, right?"

Chi Tianai believed Lin Shen's words, truly thinking that Lin Shen had a grudge with the Chi Family from Tianyan Lake, hence why Tian Jiuyou had confined him in Snow Valley.

Seeing his battered Battle Suit and helmet, she knew he must have suffered a lot and endured much hardship here.

From his tone, it must be that the Chi Family had done something very offensive to him and his relatives, so Chi Tianai felt she could, within her capabilities, try to resolve his hatred with the Chi Family. Explore hidden tales at My Virtual Library Empire

Chi Tianai was not worried about her own safety; although she appeared weak and delicate, her actual combat strength was terrifying.

Moreover, since Tian Jiuyou allowed her to come here, it showed that her strength was sufficient to protect herself, so Chi Tianai was not concerned about that issue.
