Douluo Amon: I am the Heavenly Venerable of the Dragon King.

Chapter 399 The Governor's Residence of Tianhai City

Five minutes later.

Nanali kept looking at the puddle on the ground, which reflected her own face.

Large eyes, a clean and beautiful face, and skin that seemed to glow. It was a face she saw often, but after what had just happened, Nanali found herself unable to tire of looking at it.

"Have you seen enough?" Just then, a female voice rang out, interrupting Nanali's self-admiration.

Nanali turned around and glanced at Fors. Her eyes immediately became unfocused. Even though she had just submitted to Fors, evil spirit masters were not normal people. Breaking promises was perfectly normal for them.

However, the fear of Fors having just plundered her life essence ultimately prevailed. Nanali barely suppressed her thoughts, walked to Fors's side, and asked, "What do you want me to do next?"

"Hmm?" Fors groaned, and a sharp pain surged through Nanali's heart again, causing her to scream involuntarily. However, having experienced this before, Nanali was somewhat experienced and only half-knelt on the ground, not falling directly to the ground.

"It seems you still haven't fully grasped your own position. Let me give you a wake-up call."

This excruciating pain was different from the previous ones; it lasted for a full half hour before gradually subsiding. Nanali collapsed to the ground, her body twitching involuntarily.

Even if she does have some resistance to pain, the kind of pain that feels like her soul is being torn apart is absolutely unbearable for ordinary people.

Fors looked at the drenched-in-sweat Nanali and said with a smile, "I think you know how to address me now, right?"

"Lord Fors, ah!!!" Before Nanali could finish speaking, she felt another wave of excruciating pain, which finally made her scream in agony.

"You got the name wrong. Don't forget, you're just my toy." Fors kindly reminded her, looking at the extremely distressed Nanali.

"I*￥××%#お."

Nanali's mind was filled with profanities, but she couldn't utter a single word because she was in unbearable pain. This soul-tearing agony was something she couldn't resist no matter how many times she tried; it was simply too painful.

Fortunately, the pain only lasted for ten minutes, otherwise Nanali wondered if she would have a mental breakdown because of it.

Fors didn't urge her, and just let Nanali lie quietly on the ground. With the help of the Time Worm's senses, she knew that Nanali was about to reach her limit.

Ten minutes later, after sensing that Nanali had calmed down considerably, Fors said quietly, "If you don't get up soon, I won't mind letting you sleep here forever."

Upon hearing this, Nanali immediately rolled over and got up from the ground. A hint of fear flashed in her eyes as she looked at Fors. This woman's thinking was completely beyond the comprehension of a normal person.

Everyone says that evil spirit masters are mentally unstable and have twisted personalities, but she felt that Fors's personality was even more twisted than hers. Just because of the way she addressed her, he would often have thoughts of killing her.

She could sense that Fors had genuinely intended to kill her, and if she continued to lie on the ground, this woman would definitely kill her.

And with that ability to devour the life essence of a Soul Master, she felt that Fors was more suitable to be an evil Soul Master than she was.

"Now do you know how to address me?"

"I know, Master." A hint of frustration flashed in Nanali's eyes, but she still answered honestly in the end.

"Good girl." Fors nodded. It seemed that the training had begun to bear fruit. Although Nanali was simply dominated by fear, it was effective.

With a flash of silver light, Fors and Nanali vanished and reappeared in Tianhai City, in the same spot they had left in.

"It's getting late. We'll be heading back to the Governor's residence in Skysea City soon. You lead the way," Fors said to Nanali, then, as if remembering something, patted Nanali's head.

"Speaking of which, I still don't know your name. The name Lina must be fake, right?"

"Nanali, my name is Nanali."

A hint of frustration flashed in Nanali's eyes, but she still obediently answered.

"I see." Fors nodded, then suddenly kicked Nanali in the stomach, the force sending Nanali flying.

"Ugh!" Nanali spat out a mouthful of bitterness. Fors's sudden kick was something she hadn't expected. She flew at least twenty meters away before crashing heavily to the ground.

Fortunately, there were few pedestrians on this path to begin with, and now that it was approaching dusk, there was even less people around. Otherwise, the commotion caused by Fors alone would probably have attracted a lot of attention.

"What are you doing!"

Nanali rolled to her feet, a flash of anger in her eyes. Fors's kick had been too sudden, so much so that she didn't have time to use her soul power to protect herself and took the blow squarely.

That kick wasn't fatal, but it hurt! Not to mention that Fors was aiming for her abdomen, but Nanali cared more about her face than her physical injuries.

Even if there was no one around, she was still a Super Douluo. Looking at the whole world, how many people could compare to her? Yet Fors, a Soul Saint, dared to show her no respect. How could this not infuriate her?

Facing the furious Nanali, Fors calmly said, "I hate being lied to the most. Consider this kick as the price you pay for lying to me with a fake name before."

"What!" Nanali's voice rose eight octaves involuntarily. How could she possibly accept such a reason? Was Fors toying with her?!

"What? Trying to rebel?" Fors glanced at Nanali. She'd said it before: Nanali was just a demonic spirit master, a toy; she wasn't going to give her any special treatment.

"I..." Nanali was about to say something, but when she saw Fors's eyes, she immediately deflated. At the same time, she began to feel pain all over her body again.

No, not only that, Nanali felt that her life force seemed to be draining away again, which made her start to panic.

Seeing the cold glint in Fors's eyes, Nanali lowered her head and said, "I was wrong, Master."

However, the loss of the body's vital essence has not decreased at all, and there is even a trend of it getting worse.

Now, Nanali finally started to panic. Looking at Fors, who remained unmoved, she gritted her teeth. She had already lost face once, so it wouldn't make a difference if she did it again.

So Nanali knelt down in Fors's direction and said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have lied to you, Master."

"Very good. I hope you recognize your place. If there's a next time, it won't be so easily let go." Fors nodded, and the life force draining from Nanali's body began to stop.

But this time, the life force that had been lost did not return to Nanali's body.

In just a few seconds, Nanali lost three years of her lifespan. This caused her heart to bleed uncontrollably. Even though she was a Super Douluo and still very young, how could she not feel heartbroken at losing three years of her life for no reason?

"Serving a ruler is like serving a tiger."

For some reason, this sentence popped into Nanali's mind.

No, that madwoman Fors is even worse than that; she's always trying to take people's lives. It's the behavior of a demonic spirit master, and yet her life is in her hands.

Nunnally could already foresee her bleak future. Vicious, domineering, and ruthless in her methods—that was all Nunnally remembered about Fors.

"Come on, or I'll rip your soul out and burn it like a sky lantern."

Fors's eerie voice made Nanali tremble. She didn't know what lighting a sky lantern meant, but she understood the idea of ​​extracting the soul.

"This woman's personality is truly awful."

Despite a silent curse in her heart, Nanali obediently followed, based on her current understanding of Fors. There was no doubt that this woman was capable of such a thing.

"Who exactly is the evil spirit master?!"

……

The governor's residence in Tianhai City is located in the city center. After all, it is a place for officials to work, so it can't be too far from the city.

Considering he might be living here permanently in the future, Nan Fusheng had taken over quite a few people in the city center, at least those around his house. After all, Xu Xiaoyan would also be living here, and he didn't want to cause any trouble.

Because it was getting late, Fors took Nanali in a soul-guided taxi and headed directly to the city center of Tianhai.

After getting out of the car, paying the fare, and doing all that, Fors led Nanali directly to her governor's mansion. Although the mansion was located in the city center, there were no other residents around it, in order to prevent anyone from infiltrating through the neighboring houses.

From the outside, the mansion's architectural style is simple yet grand, with smooth lines and a modern feel. The gray stone and large areas of glass complement each other, showcasing both a dignified character and a fashionable vibe.

The mansion is surrounded by lush greenery, forming a natural green barrier that not only adds vitality but also brings tranquility and serenity to the residence.

As Fors stepped through the gate, a winding cobblestone path came into view, flanked by neatly trimmed low shrubs, their lush green leaves seemingly whispering tales of life and vitality. Following the path, one arrived at the heart of the courtyard.

Here is a uniquely designed fountain, where clear water gushes out from layers of sculptures, sparkling in the sunlight.

Several exquisite wrought iron benches are placed around the fountain, providing a pleasant place for people to rest. Sitting on the benches, listening to the tinkling of the spring water, and feeling the gentle breeze, one's mood is exceptionally pleasant.

Fors didn't look at those things; instead, she led Nanali towards the inner house. The spacious and bright entrance hall gave a sense of openness. The carefully designed lighting system illuminated the entire space.

The floor is paved with high-quality marble, each slab seemingly telling a story of quality and refinement. A unique art sculpture sits in the entryway, adding a touch of cultural depth to the entire space.

At this moment, Nan Fusheng and Xu Xiaoyan had been waiting for her in the living room for a long time.

Seeing her return, Xu Xiaoyan immediately stepped forward and said, "Weren't you supposed to be taking Lina to Tianhai Academy? You took so long to come back, Fusheng was so worried about you."

"Oh, Xiaoyan, haven't you been worried about Fors all this time? You've been talking about her a lot before." At this moment, Nan Fusheng's voice came leisurely.

"Shut up." Xu Xiaoyan turned around and glared at Nan Fusheng. She had kindly offered to help him, but how could this guy be so oblivious to her feelings?

"Okay, okay, I'll shut up." Nan Fusheng smiled and made a zipper-closing motion.

At this moment, Xu Xiaoyan turned her gaze to Nanali beside her and asked curiously, "Isn't this Lina, your junior? Didn't you send her to Tianhai Academy?"

Fors smiled and said, "Because when I was sending this junior to Tianhai Academy, I had a very pleasant conversation with her and learned about her background from that."

First, her name is Nanali, not Lina. Second, her parents passed away long ago, so she has limited financial resources and previously supported herself by working while attending school.

Fors patted Nanali on the shoulder and said kindly, "I couldn't bear to see what she was going through, so I wanted to help her. It just so happens that her future goal is to become a civil servant, so I had her come here for an interview."

This is meant to help her earn a living, and also to lay the foundation for her future civil service exam. Nanali will explain the details to you later.

"Go to hell with your civil servant status." Nanali couldn't help but curse inwardly, but after glancing at Fors beside her, she obediently admitted defeat and said timidly, "I'm sorry, Senior Sister Xiaoyan, Senior Brother Fusheng, I lied to you before."

Actually, my real name is Nanali, and Lina is my nickname. I'm just a little afraid to reveal my true identity because of something that happened when I was little. I didn't mean to lie to you. I hope you can forgive me.

As she spoke, Nanali bowed to Xu Xiaoyan, her timid appearance resembling that of a frightened little rabbit. If one didn't know her true nature, most people would probably be fooled by her.

"It's alright, it's alright. Fusheng, look..." Xu Xiaoyan didn't ask why Nanali, despite her financial difficulties, had time to stroll around Shrek City and even ride in the VIP seats of the Soul Guidance Train.

After all, every family has its own problems.

Since Fors brought Nanali back, she obviously trusted her, so she naturally wouldn't dwell on such a trivial matter.
