Chapter 248: Dealing with Danger

"Kid, calm down. I think you must be very concerned about your boyfriend's safety, right?" He clapped his hands, and the doors in the large room opened. A mixed - race man carried Xia Lin out.

Immediately, Qi Shang's gaze fell on Xia Lin. He clenched his fists tightly. "Give him back to me!"

The anger in his tone seemed to launch a mental attack on the people opposite him under the effect of his speech - related supernatural ability. But they were all powerful people, especially the man in the middle, who had the ability of "deprivation" as well as defensive abilities.

"Kid, you're really making me angry. I'll give you one last chance! It's either your boyfriend's life or your supernatural ability. Choose one! I'll only give you one minute!"

Qi Shang lowered his head. The people opposite thought he was thinking, but actually, Qi Shang was accumulating strength.

After only about half a minute, the leader opposite became impatient. "Hey! Have you made up your mind yet? It seems I need to give you a sense of urgency!"

He turned around and gave an order to the man carrying Xia Lin. "Jack, cripple one of that cute boy's hands. Put some pressure on our speech - related supernatural ability user."

"Wait a minute!" Qi Shang immediately spoke up to stop him. He still needed time to accumulate strength, so he had to try the delaying tactic for now. "I know your supernatural ability can deprive others of their supernatural abilities and either make them your own or give them to others. My friend also found out that in previous cases, you easily deprived others of their supernatural abilities. Why do you have to threaten me with my boyfriend this time?"

Qi Shang's personality made him rarely say such a long speech to others. But at this moment, he was unexpectedly calm, only thinking about rescuing Xia Lin quickly. He couldn't be impulsive. The more critical this moment was, the more he had to stay rational. Qi Shang kept telling himself this in his heart.

The leader probably thought he had everything under control. He didn't know there was a very reasonable saying in China: villains die from talking too much.

He proudly explained, "Boy, dealing with them is, of course, different from dealing with you. You should feel honored because your speech - related ability is so powerful. It's the ability I most want to obtain and the one I'm not willing to give to others. Actually, devouring others' abilities will have an impact on my lifespan. So in the past, I always gave the stolen supernatural abilities to others to win over many subordinates. But your ability is just too wonderful. Even if I have to live ten or more years less, I still want to devour your ability!"

This leader was also a talkative person, which just suited Qi Shang's plan. After he felt he had accumulated enough energy, it was time to strike!

In an instant, Qi Shang snatched Xia Lin back from the mixed - race man. Just as he was about to run out, he found that the people opposite had firmly surrounded him.

The leader gritted his teeth, his face distorted. "Boy, you've angered me. Wait for me to forcibly deprive you of your supernatural ability, and then go to hell with your boyfriend in regret!"

Qi Shang felt his strength and smiled confidently. With Xia Lin on his back, he had more courage and conviction. "It should be you who go to hell!"

After saying that, Qi Shang used his supernatural ability. Fortunately, his ability was speech - related and had nothing to do with physical strength, so he could carry Xia Lin on his back and deal with these enemies!
