"Aren't you afraid?" she asked.

"What are you afraid of?"

"I'm afraid they'll find you and discover that I..." Her voice trailed off, her earlobes turning a deep, almost blood-red in the darkness.

Jiang Jiu chuckled softly: "Did you find out what you did to me?"

You're asking a question you already know the answer to.

She turned her head and lightly grazed his neck with her teeth, leaving a very faint mark.

Jiang Jiu's breathing became erratic. He put his arm around her waist, pulled her closer to him, and whispered, "Black Tower, you have to let me know how long I'm going to be locked up in this dark room."

"Keep them locked up until I can beat them."

Her fingers slowly traced the back of his neck, with an almost obsessive possessiveness: "I'll make you tell me, why is it that she's the one who ends up by your side?"

“You don’t need to beat them,” Jiang Jiu said. “Just be yourself.”

"That's not enough. I can't let you go anymore."

Jiang Jiu said helplessly, "You're just jealous of yourself."

"So what?" She raised her chin, her eyes filled with arrogance. Although her eyes were still red, her defiant spirit had completely taken hold. "I don't care who they are, or what you've been through. All I know is that right now, here, you are mine."

After saying that, she kissed him again.

This time, her kiss was filled with possessiveness, as if declaring his ownership.

Jiang Jiu did not resist. He let her do whatever she wanted, allowing her to conquer his lips in an almost domineering manner.

He even turned his head slightly when she occasionally stopped to catch her breath, and took the initiative to kiss her lower lip, which elicited a very soft sob from her.

Then she kissed him even more fiercely.

In the dark space, only their intertwined breathing could be heard.

After a long time, Black Tower finally stopped and rested on his shoulder, breathing softly.

Her forehead rested against his shoulder, the tip of her nose touched his neck, and her lips rubbed against the side of his neck intermittently.

"Ajiu......"

"Ah."

“If you dare tell them what happened today, I’ll lock you up again.”

Jiang Jiu laughed: "Even if you don't tell me and I don't tell me, she will find out."

"Then I'll make it a fait accompli before she comes looking for me."

Side Story - Black Tower Shura Field Route (Nine)

Inside the clock tower, Tower Three had already searched every possible location, but there was still no trace of Jiang Jiu. Her arms were tightly wrapped around her chest, and her complexion was far from pleasant.

Tower Four sat on the sofa, remaining relatively calm, and calmly searched for places that were inaccessible by ordinary means.

If she still can't find it, she might have to try calling for other star gods.

The face that exists, isn't that amazing?

Tower One watched the two of them bustling around, then leaned back on the sofa, contentedly enjoying the spectacle.

"So, gentlemen, can someone explain where our second lady took our guest?"

“Not a guest!” Towers Three and Four said simultaneously.

Then they looked at each other, and then simultaneously looked away.

Tower One: "..."

Looking at "myself" like this, it's really... quite amusing.

That's why it's fun and exciting, right? Aha had a brilliant idea and turned the usually quiet clock tower into a large-scale battleground that was rarely seen before.

...Of course, it would be great if she were just there to watch the show.

"Where could she take him?" Tower Three wondered. "This isn't her timeline. There's no experimental equipment here, and no special space."

After a two-second pause, Tower Four suddenly said, "She has that thing in her hand."

Their gazes instantly focused on Tower Number Four.

"what?"

“The Little Black Tower Doll.” Tower Number Four stood up, still relatively calm. “Jiang Jiu almost always carries the Little Black Tower Doll with her. When Number Two came, for some reason, the doll ended up in her hands.”

She clicked her tongue: "What a nuisance. I should have done it when she shoved the doll into his hands."

"You mean she took Jiang Jiu away using that thing?" Tower Three reacted extremely quickly. "The Little Black Tower doll has the ability to teleport?"

"No, but she is the Black Tower that created the Little Black Tower puppet. Generally speaking, the creator's authority over their creation is always higher than that of the user. Perhaps she can use the puppet to construct a temporary space, hack into the space station's network, and use the power of Existence Destiny to create an independent space and pull Jiang Jiu in. Judging from the traces of their disappearance just now, she did not use space jump; she used the power of Existence Destiny to directly overwrite the reality of that area."

"Where did she get the power of destiny?" Tower Three asked incredulously.

"Jiang Jiu's." Tower Four was already too lazy to explain, but Tower Three kept pressing her, so she finally voiced her thoughts.

“The existence of destiny will not reject the Black Tower. This is something we have confirmed before. She does not need any additional bestowal of destiny. She only needs to touch Jiang Jiu to mobilize enough power to construct a closed space through the power of the existence of destiny within him.”

“So…” Tower Three’s expression became subtle.

"So the current situation is that Jiang Jiu is trapped in a small dark room created by the Black Tower by the power of his own destiny." Tower No. 4 chuckled. "Well done, instead of going against yourself, you chose to go against him."

"Can it be cracked?"

"We definitely can. What can possibly be difficult for us? But..."

"but?"

Tower Four isn't too worried about this; finding Jiang Jiu shouldn't be difficult, it's just a matter of time.

However, given his personality, once he succeeds, he will probably link that part of the spatial structure directly to himself to prevent Jiang Jiu from cracking it.

After all, Jiang Jiu wouldn't lay a hand on her.

This trick doesn't work on others, but it works very well on Jiang Jiu. Jiang Jiu won't touch her.

She paused for two seconds, a slight headache in her eyes: "If the price of breaking through space is that person gets injured, do you think Jiang Jiu will step in to solidify that space?"

Tower Three: "..."

Tower Three clenched his fist slightly.

She didn't refute it because she knew that Tower Four was right.

Just as Jiang Jiu would never attack himself, he would never attack the other Black Towers... In other words, it's not that Jiang Jiu doesn't want to come out, it's that Jiang Jiu simply can't come out.

If I threaten to kill him, he'll only go along with me.

Even though it was all her, she felt... a tiny bit of jealousy?

Why...?

I had finally found him after so much trouble, and I was the one who should have been by his side the most... I had just received a hug.

Tower Four has already explained the theory of space very clearly.

But right now, the most pressing question for Tower Three isn't where they are, but what they're doing.

The thought of this made Tower Three extremely agitated. She raised her hand to press her temples, trying to keep her voice from sounding too out of control: "Can you calculate the coordinates of that space? Or is there any way to interfere with it?"

"I said it takes time."

Tower Four's voice was steady, except that he enunciated each word a little more heavily than usual: "If you're really in a hurry, go find it yourself. I won't tolerate you."

"Besides, she won't hurt him."

Tower Three glanced at her, his expression complex: "Are you saying this to comfort me, or to comfort yourself?"

Tower No. 4 did not respond.

They all know themselves too well.

As members of the Black Tower, the more proud they are, the more obsessive they become when it comes to what they truly desire.

If they were in the position of Tower Two, holding such an opportunity to have Jiang Jiu all to themselves, none of them would easily let go. So what they should be most worried about now is not Jiang Jiu's safety, but how far they will go and what methods they will use to keep Jiang Jiu there, since they acted even earlier than them.

What will they do?

“…A fine scheme.” Tower Three’s voice turned cold. “As expected of myself.”

"Stop making sarcastic remarks." Tower Four stood up and walked towards the center of the living room. "I need to find an anchor point outside the space to replace her as the support for the space."

Tower Four traced a few lines in the air with his fingertips: "As long as she is removed from the spatial equations, space will lose its binding force on Jiang Jiu."

"What should we use to replace it?" Tower Three immediately stepped forward.

“Use me,” said Tower Four.

"Why you?" Tower Three was not satisfied at all.

Tower One leisurely fanned the flames: "Hmm? So... you're planning to cooperate?"

"How will we divide it after we find it?"

Tower One thought for a moment, then looked at Tower Four and spoke, its voice rising at the end: "Or, could you give me two days first? I'm quite curious about the things you like."

After Tower One finished speaking, there was a two-second silence in the living room.

Side Story - Black Tower Shura Field Route (10)

Tower Three was the first to react.

She slowly turned her head, her still slightly reddish purple eyes fixed on Tower Number One, a hint of annoyance flashing in them.

"What did you just say?" Her voice was a little hoarse. "Say it again."

Tower One remained seated on the sofa, relaxed, even having the leisure to unpack a bag of chocolates Tower Four had placed on the table. The taste was surprisingly good: "Hey, after you find him, could you give me two days first? I'm quite curious about the things you guys like."

She paused, her gaze sweeping meaningfully over Tower Three's taut jawline before settling on Tower Four's almost icy profile. "After all, he's the kind of man who can make three of us fall for him at the same time. I'd like to know what's so special about him."

What do you take him for?

Tower Three took a step toward her, his voice barely concealing his emotions: "An experimental subject you can dissect at any time? A toy to satisfy your curiosity? You don't even like him, so what gives you the right to say such things?"
