Chapter 721: Wang Jianqiang Most Appreciates the Brave and Stubborn

~7 min read 1,382 words

After Wang Jianqiang finished speaking, without waiting for the two to react, he tightened his hands abruptly, and the Nascent Souls of the two were instantly severely damaged.

With a scream, they both fell into a coma simultaneously.

Afterwards, with a movement of his consciousness, Wang Jianqiang placed a Restriction on the two Nascent Souls and stored them inside his Space Ring.

He turned his head to look at the only one remaining, Kong Yu.

Facing Wang Jianqiang's gaze, Kong Yu's expression shifted, and she took two steps back.

At this moment, she was already injured to the extreme; merely resisting the heavy pressure of the Sea of Sand was already incredibly strenuous, and she had no energy left at all.

Otherwise, she would have fled long ago while that person was attacking Qin Chen and Xiao Che.

But why did the other party, who was clearly able to cover her within the attack range just now, let her go?

She stared cautiously at Wang Jianqiang, a flash of doubt crossing her beautiful eyes.

Noticing the doubt in Kong Yu's eyes, Wang Jianqiang smiled faintly, "Are you wondering why I didn't attack you earlier?"

Kong Yu's face was deathly pale; she stared fixedly at Wang Jianqiang without saying a word.

Wang Jianqiang smiled nonchalantly, "Because I have always cherished the fair sex, and I especially admire brave and stubborn women."

Kong Yu's gaze flickered.

Just then, Wang Jianqiang's voice sounded again, "Now, I will give you a chance."

"I happen to be missing a handmaiden by my side; if you are willing to be my handmaiden, I can spare your life."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Kong Yu's expression changed.

She was the heaven-favored daughter of the Jade Cauldron Sect.

Not only was she hailed as the number one beauty of the Jade Cauldron Sect, but her talent was second only to Xuan Che.

How noble was her status?

This lackey actually wanted to make her a handmaiden!

How could that be?

Moreover, the other party had just said that he admired brave and stubborn women...

Thinking of this.

She suddenly felt a sense of alarm in her heart.

Could this be a test from the other party?

A test to see if she was truly a brave person.

If she readily agreed, the other party would conclude that she was greedy for life and afraid of death; not only would she fail to gain a path to survival, but it would instead make the other party determined to kill her!

This person, what a despicable scheme!

Thinking of this.

A look of cold arrogance suddenly appeared on her face, "You want me, Kong Yu, to violate my principles and become your handmaiden? Dream on!"

"It is just death, what is there to fear?"

"A scholar can be killed but not humiliated; do as you please, whether you want to kill or carve me up!"

Kong Yu's words revealed stubbornness and resolution.

Even though she was currently facing a life-or-death crisis, her expression showed not the slightest sign of submission, filled instead with disdain and pride.

It was as if she had already looked past life and death, casting them aside.

Seeing this, Wang Jianqiang sighed, "Truly a remarkable woman with a fierce personality. Since you demand it, I can only strike to kill you."

As he spoke, Wang Jianqiang struck out with a palm toward Kong Yu.

At first.

Kong Yu thought the other party was just putting on an act to scare her.

But not until the other party's attack was almost upon her, and she sensed the pure killing intent on him.

Did Kong Yu finally realize.

The other party was not testing her, but truly wanted to kill her!

Thinking of this.

She could no longer hold it together.

No...

Didn't you cherish the fair sex? Didn't you admire stubborn and fierce women?

I am being stubborn and fierce, you damn well better admire it!

Why aren't you playing by the rules?

"Wait!"

A voice filled with deep panic and sharpness escaped her lips.

Wang Jianqiang's attack stopped instantly.

At this moment, Wang Jianqiang's palm was less than half an inch from Kong Yu's chest.

If Kong Yu's reaction had been even a tenth of a breath slower, she would not have escaped the fate of falling.

A lingering fear gripped her heart, and her pale face was instantly covered in cold sweat.

"What, do you have any last words?" Wang Jianqiang looked at Kong Yu indifferently.

Kong Yu's expression flickered.

"Since you have nothing to say, then Fairy, please pass away in peace."

The Golden Light on Wang Jianqiang's palm instantly became dazzling.

Seeing this scene, Kong Yu dared not hesitate any longer and hurriedly said, "I am willing to become your handmaiden!"

Hearing Kong Yu's words, the Golden Light on Wang Jianqiang's palm receded.

Looking at Kong Yu with a face full of astonishment, "What did you say, Fairy?"

Kong Yu's face was full of humiliation, and she said with difficulty, "I am willing to become your handmaiden."

Hearing Kong Yu confirm it once again.

Wang Jianqiang frowned, "How can this be? With a personality as proud and stubborn as yours, Fairy, you shouldn't have agreed to this condition."

"I understand, you must have some hidden reason, right?"

"Sigh, forget it, Wang never forces others."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, a new hope suddenly welled up in Kong Yu's heart.

Her eyes shone brightly, staring fixedly at Wang Jianqiang, anticipating his next words.

Seeing this, Wang Jianqiang smiled gently, "Wang admires a woman as brave and stubborn as you, Fairy. Since you have a hidden reason, Fairy, Wang will not force you."

Hearing this, a sense of excitement already welled up in Kong Yu's heart.

Could he be...

Preparing to let her go?

Immediately after.

Wang Jianqiang's voice came again.

"You should just go die."

Kong Yu's expression suddenly stiffened.

This bastard was actually toying with her again!

Being toyed with twice in a row made her almost explode with rage, yet she dared not show the slightest bit of it.

Seeing that after Wang Jianqiang's voice fell, the power on his palm condensed once more.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly spoke, "Daoist Friend, you have misunderstood; I have no hidden reasons."

"I simply admire your strength, Daoist Friend, and wish to become your handmaiden."

The Golden Light on Wang Jianqiang's palm dissipated once again.

Looking at Kong Yu with a face full of shock, "Is what you say true, Fairy?"

Kong Yu nodded hurriedly.

Wang Jianqiang sighed, "Wang knows that my personal charisma is astonishing and have already been deliberately restraining it, but I did not expect it would still cause you to fall for me like this, Fairy."

"Forget it, since you are pleading so earnestly, Fairy, then so be it."

"From this day forward, you shall be my first..."

"Ahem~ my fourth handmaiden."

Kong Yu:...

She was not curious about who this person's first three handmaidens were; after all, no matter who they were, it was absolutely impossible for them to be prettier or more talented than her.

She was simply astonished by the thickness of this person's skin.

Looking at Wang Jianqiang's face full of sentiment, Kong Yu sneered inwardly.

Although this person's strength was great, it was only great to a limited extent.

The reason he was able to slay Qin Chen and Xiao Che was because the two were careless and were caught off guard and heavily wounded.

Otherwise, if both sides had fought in peak condition, the outcome would still be unknown.

With such strength, if he were to encounter Brother Xuan Che, he would definitely be easily slain by Brother Xuan Che.

Her submission to this person was merely a delaying tactic.

She had once aspired to reach the end of the path of immortality and had made a pact with Brother Xuan Che to become Dao Companions under the gaze of the whole world.

Now that these two aspirations had yet to be fulfilled, how could she perish here?

As long as she could encounter Brother Xuan Che later, Brother Xuan Che would definitely be able to rescue her from this villain's hands.

When that time came, she would definitely make this bastard regret it!
