"Curiosity? Humans are indeed very curious." Lilith nodded, seeming to agree with Gu Ran's point of view.
"But... being too curious isn't a good thing, right?"
Lilith said meaningfully.
Gu Ran raised his eyebrows slightly: "Is there any danger in it?"
Lilith's face was a little nervous: "There is no danger, but I won't satisfy your curiosity. The greater your curiosity, the stronger the feeling of dissatisfaction will be."
Gu Ran: “…”
Lilith's "curiosity killed the cat" expression made Gu Ran think that there was some big secret, but he didn't expect that she was just trying to play a trick on him.
I have to say that Lilith's movements and expressions are all charming in their own way. Sometimes she looks like a charming queen, and sometimes like a naughty girlfriend, as if she can satisfy multiple role-playing plays at the same time.
But Gu Ran knew that Lilith was different from Cheng Caimeng.
Although Cheng Caimeng sometimes has a bit of a bad taste, most of the time she is very reliable and will not do anything out of line.
And Lilith seemed to be simply bad-tempered and wanted to tease him.
Not to mention outrageous things, she can even do things that are excessive.
Her identity is a succubus.
The succubus of the abyss is one of the demon races with the most recorded information among humans.
There are both male and female succubi in the succubus clan, but most of the ones who take over the position of Demon General are female succubi.
These succubi who took over the positions of generals were different from other demons in the abyss who did not like to go to the human world. They were very happy to go to the human world. Even if there was no space rift connecting the two worlds, they would often take the initiative to find ways to come to the human world.
Most of them come to the human world for... uh... an unspeakable purpose.
—Find a top-level human being and “drain” him.
Succubi are good at disguising themselves, and they like to play various games that "torture" the strongest human men.
Especially their bad personalities, combined with their perfect looks and figures, form a dangerous yet seductive contradiction.
Succubi have received mixed reviews in various records, making many people love and hate them.
In the past, Gu Ran only knew about this race from various information, but he didn't expect to be able to face this race head-on now.
After several contacts with Lilith, Gu Ran found that what the information said was indeed correct.
The succubus race has a naturally bad character and likes to tease people.
This made him extremely cautious towards Lilith, and at the same time he was wary of another racial characteristic of the succubus.
"Okay, you didn't call me here just to tease me, did you? What do you want to do?"
Gu Ran decided to attack with a straight ball, his eyes fixed on Lilith like a hawk.
"I didn't expect that woman to be so charming..." Lilith smiled, with a hint of scrutiny and amusement in her eyes towards Gu Ran.
"It's very simple. Actually, I'm looking for you because... I want you to..."
Gu Ran remained unmoved and looked at her coldly.
Lilith couldn't help feeling a little regretful when she saw that her "heavy breathing" didn't surprise Gu Ran.
"I need you to do me a favor."
Lilith continued, "This favor is extremely difficult for you, so even if you refuse, I will do everything I can to make you agree."
Gu Ran was really surprised this time.
"What favor? So important? If you don't explain clearly, I have the right to refuse you."
Lilith crossed her arms and said, "Don't be so impatient. I will explain the reasons clearly. If you still refuse, we can talk about it later."
Gu Ran stopped talking and waited for Lilith's explanation.
The expression on Lilith's face immediately changed, becoming serious and earnest.
She looked into Gu Ran's eyes and said word by word: "I want you to help me open Pandora's Box!"
Concise but to the point.
In an instant, scenes of his previous conversation with Xue Yingsong about Pandora's Box flashed through Gu Ran's mind.
Finally, the last words that Lian Xueyingsong asked Lilith to convey contained content about Pandora's Box.
Gu Ran's pupils suddenly shrank: "Let me help you open the contents of Pandora's Box... So I am the 'key' you are looking for?"
Lilith nodded: "Yes, I wasn't sure if it was you before, but now I am 80% sure that it is you."
At this moment, Gu Ran finally understood that Lilith had chosen the wrong person when she approached Xue Xiling.
The person Lilith was really looking for turned out to be him? !
Gu Ran said calmly: "If the person you are looking for is me, then why did you think Xue Xiling was the 'key' you were looking for? On what basis did you look for me?"
"What factor... Maybe you don't believe it." Lilith patted her head gently, "Feeling!"
"I searched for it through my own feelings. I met Xue Xiling once before, and I felt that strong feeling from her at that time."
"But I didn't expect that I would feel that wonderful feeling more and more strongly from you. Until you successfully killed Xue Yingsong, I finally confirmed that you were indeed the 'key' I was looking for to open Pandora's Box."
Gu Ran immediately asked, "What is inside Pandora's Box? Why are you so persistent in opening it? What will be the consequences after opening it?"
Gu Ran did not throw out all the questions at once, but asked the three most important questions in his mind first.
290. Confrontation with Lilith! Gu Ran reveals his past?! 4k
"What is it... I don't know either."
"I have my own reasons for wanting to open it."
"As for the consequences of opening Pandora's Box, it won't have any impact on you humans anyway, and it may even be beneficial to you humans, otherwise Xue Yingsong wouldn't have asked you to help me."
Gu Ran agreed with the last reason in his heart.
Xue Yingsong is a complicated person. Although he eventually embarked on the path of destroying Canglong City because his rescue plan itself was wrong, his starting point was also his love for Canglong City and his sense of responsibility towards humanity.
But there is another possibility, that is, cooperation with Lilith is still part of his adventurous plan.
Although this possibility is extremely small, it cannot be completely ruled out.
Before seeing the evidence, Gu Ran did not make any rash judgment, but remained vigilant in his heart.
Gu Ran nodded: "Okay, you release Xue Xiling first."
"Huh? You agreed so easily, is there any trick?" Lilith looked at Gu Ran suspiciously.
Then, she smiled: "Is it because of Xue Yingsong's daughter? She is really affectionate and righteous. It seems that my move was right. Then I can't return her to you easily."
"Otherwise, how can I threaten you?"
Although Lilith generally disdains to use her racial talents like her ancestors, because she is confident that her strength far exceeds that of her ancestors.
But Gu Ran is an exception.
Gu Ran was too strong, and she knew that she was far from being Gu Ran's opponent, so she didn't mind using a few tricks.
Of course, it’s not like using one’s body to “drain” the other person like our ancestors did, but like now, use a little of one’s charm to give the other person a little succubus shock.
It would be best if you could make the other person lose their mind and become obsessed with you.
In addition, with Xue Xiling as a threat, the possibility of controlling Gu Ran is higher with double guarantees.
But Lilith didn't see any fascination with her in Gu Ran's eyes, but instead saw coldness.
"Lilith, if you want us to have better cooperation, you'd better release Xue Xiling."
"You have to know that it is you who asks me for something, not me who asks you for something."
"You can indeed threaten me with Xue Xiling, but aren't you afraid that I will do something in the process of opening Pandora's Box?"
Feeling the coldness from Gu Ran, Lilith felt a chill in her heart.
Gu Ran actually completely ignored the charm she displayed when she used her racial talent, and even threatened her instead.
"Hmph, very good, it seems that you don't care about your fiancée." Lilith snorted coldly, "Your fiancée is in my hands. If something happens to me, she will be dead. The independent space props have a time limit."
"When the time is up, the space will collapse and your fiancée will die."
Gu Ran said calmly: "Breaking the space is just a small matter. Do you think I can't do it?"
"You can indeed break up space, but what about the spatial coordinates? Can you find them?"
"It's indeed a bit troublesome, but as long as we spend some time, we can still find it." Gu Ran looked at Lilith with eyes that suddenly became extremely sharp, "The space prop is on you. As long as I kill you and take away the space prop, I can lock the coordinates of that independent space."
Lilith was frightened by Gu Ran's murderous eyes. She actually felt a hint of fatal danger from Gu Ran.
It was as if she was just a sheep in a pen, and Gu Ran was the butcher holding the slaughter knife.
A feeling of helplessness, fear and terror came over her.
Although it was only a brief moment, it still made her extremely angry.
She, Lilith, was actually frightened by the look of a human
"If you dare to move, I will kill her now!" Lilith's voice was also cold. "You are indeed stronger than me. You can defeat me, but can you stop me? I can kill her with just the slightest movement of my fingers."
Although she needed Gu Ran's "key" to help her open Pandora's Box, she could not accept being threatened by Gu Ran, and she could not accept being afraid of Gu Ran.
