Chapter 232
"This woman actually dared to follow."
Jiang Ye narrowed his eyes slightly, a flash of coldness crossing them.
After hearing Zheng Feng's description, this newly promoted True Transmission Jiang was really not an ordinary person.
Thick-skinned, poisonous-hearted, and ruthless in her methods—she had it all.
Zheng Feng looked up, instantly suppressing the previous sadness, and anger once again uncontrollably revealed itself in his reddened eyes.
He clenched his teeth, the aura around his body instantly becoming hot and dry, and that Fire-element true qi that had been suppressed for a long time rampaged through his meridians, as if it would break out of his body at any moment.
He turned to leave.
Just seeing this face, he was already on the verge of losing control.
"Zheng Feng!"
Jiang Chuxue walked unhurriedly behind him, a cold smile curling on that sharp, pretty face, her tone full of condescending mockery:
"The way you run away like a stray dog is really pathetic."
"Can't you let me look up to you for once!"
Zheng Feng's footsteps stopped abruptly, his body as if nailed to the spot by an invisible sword.
He turned his head back, staring red-eyed at this woman before him who was both familiar and strange, his voice hoarse and cold, every word squeezed out from between his teeth: "At this point, what more is there to say between you and me!"
A flash of resentment crossed Jiang Chuxue's eyes, and she said coldly:
"Do you know how much criticism Zheng Lin and I received because you ran away from Linzhou like a stray dog back then!"
Zheng Feng was almost laughed to anger, his laughter full of unbelievable absurdity: "Criticism? Isn't that all the truth!"
The Zheng family was one of the five great families in the giant city of Linzhou, and every move was under the spotlight.
That scandal back then of "the young master of the Zheng family forcibly snatching his cousin's fiancée" was sensational for a time, spreading through most of the giant city.
Zheng Feng was actually the biggest victim of this rumor.
But it just so happened that this rumor was the damn truth!
During that time, he didn't know how much humiliation he had suffered.
However, now...
In Jiang Chuxue's mouth, it was the adulterous couple, she and Zheng Lin, who had become the victims?!
It was clearly they who were shameless and did such a disgraceful, stupid thing, yet they turned around and blamed him for making them lose face.
"Jiang Chuxue... I have never seen anyone as thick-skinned and shameless as you!!!"
Zheng Feng's hoarse voice trembled violently due to excessive anger, his chest heaving, his fists clenched tight.
He still suffered from being too well-bred.
Even in his most angry state, he couldn't curse any dirty words.
Jiang Chuxue, however, didn't care about his anger at all, only smiling coldly:
"Thick-skinned and shameless? These are just the incompetent words of the weak toward the strong."
"If you had the ability, why didn't you stay and fight back then?"
"If you had the ability, why are you still in this pathetic state today?"
She took a bright red wedding invitation from her sleeve unhurriedly and handed it toward Zheng Feng, a composure unique to a winner appearing on that cold, sharp face:
"You came back at just the right time."
"Three months from now is the day of my grand wedding with Zheng Lin!"
"At that time, you must come."
Zheng Feng stared fixedly at this bright red, eye-piercing wedding invitation, and the anger in his body exploded like ignited gunpowder.
He stood motionless in place, the muscles on his cheeks twitching violently, his red eyes looking as if they would drip blood at any moment.
He was completely red-hot with rage.
A bitch and a dog are a match made in heaven.
He cursed over and over in his heart, feeling that if he stayed here for even one more breath, he would explode on the spot.
"Do you think I will go?!"
He roared this sentence and turned to leave.
How could he not know the vicious intentions of this woman, Jiang Chuxue.
She was unscrupulous in her actions, yet she cared extremely about her reputation.
Inviting him to attend the wedding was nothing more than wanting to stage a scene before many guests of "the former fiancé letting go of past grudges and coming to congratulate," so as to quell the criticism that had caused such a stir in the city back then.
How could he let her have her way!
Furthermore, attending the wedding of this adulterous couple was no different from sprinkling salt on his unhealed old scars.
Jiang Chuxue didn't chase; she just stood in place, a cold smile curling on that sharp, mean, pretty face, her tone unhurried:
"I am not asking for your opinion!"
"I am notifying you!"
"You have no qualifications to refuse!"
As she said this, she glanced at Jiang Ye, who had been silent beside him:
"As long as you obediently come to the wedding, I will let go of the matter of this ignorant old thing offending me in the Forging Hall just now."
"Also, your Tianqing Sect is lucky to have been able to enter the Upper Sect."
"I can't guarantee whether you can stay on Tianyun Peak!"
"However, it is very easy for me to make you unable to stay!"
"Understand?!"
Having said that, she threw the bright red wedding invitation in her hand in front of Zheng Feng; the bright red invitation flipped twice in mid-air and landed with a slap on the blue stone ground beside Zheng Feng's feet, like a loud slap in the face.
She didn't look at Zheng Feng again, turned and left without hesitation, her sharp footsteps echoing on the mountain path, each one exuding an arrogance that took things for granted.
Jiang Ye watched her figure as she twisted her round, perky buttocks and left, a look that was unclear whether it was playful or cold crossing his aged eyes.
It was his first time encountering a woman who was so thick-skinned and yet had such a temper.
"Metal-element body..."
He murmured softly, looked down at the eye-piercing wedding invitation on the ground, and then looked at Zheng Feng, who was trembling with anger beside him.
He sighed secretly in his heart.
No matter what, he had to help Zheng Feng vent this anger.
As for how to vent it.
Hmm.
Old Jiang already had a bold idea.
"This woman... bastard!!!"
Zheng Feng stared red-eyed at the bright red wedding invitation on the ground, the impulse in his body almost breaking through the dam of reason.
He wished he could stomp this wedding invitation into pieces.
But thinking of the dozens of fellow disciples on Tianyun Peak...
He clenched his teeth again.
Although this woman was vicious, she was indeed extraordinary.
At an age similar to his, she had already ascended to the rank of Upper Sect True Transmission, with a pivotal status.
If she really set her mind on targeting the Tianqing Sect, with her power today, she might really make their days on Tianyun Peak difficult.
He really couldn't risk everyone's future.
Just at this moment.
A thin, withered palm reached out from the side and picked up the wedding invitation on the ground unhurriedly.
Zheng Feng raised his head abruptly.
He saw Jiang Ye turning the bright red wedding invitation over to examine it, a faint smile hanging on his aged face:
"True Transmission Zheng, evil people will be punished by heaven."
"The wedding three months from now might just have a good show."
