Chapter 674
LeSe, under LeJi's training, aimed to find a wealthy and powerful man.
Thus, she periodically went to town to promote herself; thanks to her efforts, the young and beautiful LeSe finally succeeded, and the counterpart was none other than ZhuDi, son of the TownMayor of ShitouZhen.
The villagers of DaYuCun expressed envy.
In their view, the TownMayor's son, what a noble status, willing to take LeSe as a concubine, is LeSe's fortune!
LeJi naturally also rose with the chickens and dogs.
At present, Ye Qingran's party having offended LeSe is tantamount to offending ZhuDi, putting them in great danger!
"It's fine."
Ye Qingran simply didn't put ZhuDi in her eyes at all.
The conditions in DaYuCun were really a steal; there was simply no place for Ye Qingran and the others to settle, so they found an open spot and pitched a few tents.
In the afternoon, the sound of horse hooves came from outside the village, accompanied by laughter and shouting.
From far to near.
Outside the village, a plain-clothed girl carrying a bamboo basket ran frantically toward the village, occasionally glancing back, fear showing in her eyes.
Her clothes were torn in many places, dark red blood seeping out.
"You're asking for death? Shoot her, what the hell am I doing?"
The arrow veered and struck the girl's shin.
"Ah!" the girl cried out in pain and collapsed, unable to get up.
Several people galloped closer, pulled the reins, and surrounded the girl.
"A Se, please let them spare me!"
The girl looked pleadingly at LeSe seated on a tall horse; behind LeSe was a man wearing a jade cap and fine robes, handsome and slender.
The two rode the same horse.
The man's hand rested on LeSe's chest, kneading it, his face wearing a lecherous smile.
"Aqing, ZhuDi has taken a liking to you; it's your blessing. Submit to him, and we sisters will serve him together—what a fine affair!"
"Still, LeSe knows the ways!" ZhuDi bit LeSe's ear, making her tremble all over.
Aqing's eyes flashed with disgust.
Although Grandfather always said their lives were cheap, he also constantly urged her to learn self-love.
How could she possibly agree to LeSe's shameless demand?
"Come, strip this little beauty's clothes for me, Young Master!"
ZhuDi waved his hand, feeling nothing wrong with doing something so insane.
Despair rose in Aqing's eyes, her face turning deathly pale.
She made a decision: if they dared to strip her clothes, she would bite her tongue and kill herself!
Whoosh~
Suddenly, an arrow pierced the air and killed one of ZhuDi's attendants.
Blood spattered on Aqing's face, shocking her greatly.
A Diao's voice came from nearby: "Aqing sister!"
"Who's courting death? Dare to move against my people?"
ZhuDi instantly flew into a rage.
Upon closer look, he saw a red-clad beauty, and his eyes lit up.
His favorite thing is beauties; whether in Donghai Cheng or ShitouZhen, he has played with too many.
This beauty far surpasses the two beauties of DaYuCun!
Even Donghai Cheng doesn't have someone this pretty!
The one who shot ZhuDi's attendant was none other than Duan Yu.
She is usually aloof; now her face is like frost, a red robe enhancing her noble, extraordinary bearing, like a Female War God.
"If you dare say another word, I'll kill you too!" Duan Yu, having wandered the jianghu for years, cannot stand such bullying of men over women; whenever she encounters it, she meets violence with violence.
After ZhuDi's brief astonishment, he burst into wild laughter.
"Hahaha! Did you hear that? She said she'd kill me!"
The dozens of attendants behind him also burst into laughter, their eyes full of contempt.
On ShitouZhen's turf, who dares to move against ZhuDi?
"Little beauty, do you know who I am?"
"I don't care who you are!"
"Feisty, I like it!"
"I'm the son of the TownMayor of ShitouZhen, and the lord of Donghai Cheng is my uncle!" ZhuDi raised his chin and announced his lineage.
According to past experience, whoever hears his identity trembles.
After all, within Yunfu's jurisdiction, who would dare offend a YunSurname person?
But this time, he was disappointed.
Duan Yu's expression didn't change, even a hint of disdain flashed in her eyes.
A surname granted as a reward can make him so proud? Instructor Ye's mother is Yun Ling, the most stunningly talented woman of Yunfu for a thousand years, whose veins carry the purest Yun blood—what did she say?
ZhuDi's gaze darkened.
He wondered whether this woman was playing hard to get or truly had a background.
Although he is a spoiled playboy, that doesn't mean he lacks brains.
If the other party truly had an extraordinary background, he wouldn't dare offend them lightly.
However, he couldn't afford to think more; at this moment, Ye Qingran and her group appeared.
When he saw Ye Qingran, ZhuDi finally realized that all the women he had seen before were vulgar and common; even the most noble young lady of the Yunfu, Yun Lan, seemed inferior to this woman by three parts.
Moreover, besides that most beautiful woman, the others each had their own charm!
ZhuDi's heart surged with excitement.
These beauties would keep him entertained for a while!
LeSe saw ZhuDi's reaction and instantly hated him so much his teeth itched.
"My lord, it's them who beat me and my father! They clearly know I'm yours, yet they still laid hands on me, not putting you in their eyes at all! They even boasted, saying your maternal uncle in Donghai Cheng isn't worth mentioning!"
LeSe loudly accused.
She knew ZhuDi could not tolerate anyone provoking his authority.
"Exactly, that's right!" LeJi chimed in from the side.
However, ZhuDi was not angry.
"Beauty, as long as you submit to me, your Young Master, all that came before will be forgiven, how about that?"
Ye Qingran instantly grabbed Fu Hanxiu's hand.
If she didn't stop him, ZhuDi would be done for.
Wouldn't that be rather boring?
"You're ZhuDi?"
"Not bad, I am ZhuDi, the Young Master, and the lord of Donghai Cheng is my maternal uncle!" ZhuDi was immensely proud.
He obviously felt his status was supremely noble.
Ye Qingran nodded, then shifted her tone: "What if I say no?"
The onlooking villagers' hearts skipped a beat.
Who would dare refuse the TownMayor's son?
"Little beauty, do you think you have the right to refuse?"
ZhuDi pointed to the dozen or so attendants behind him.
Ye Qingran glanced over; the lowest among those attendants was at the Profound Venerable level, and there was even a Saint.
No wonder ZhuDi was so confident. Such an entourage would be considered luxurious even in this remote Donghai Cheng.
