Chapter 271: Who Do You Think You Are
"Qiu Zihe!"
With one hand gripping Qiu Zihe's neck, Mo Sanniang was preparing to crush it to vent the hatred she had accumulated over these years.
That so-called obsession now had very little influence on her, but it remained a hidden danger, so she still had to resolve this problem completely.
Kill Qiu Zihe, let this trace of obsession erupt; only after it erupts can it be severed.
"Urgh, urgh..." With his neck seized, Qiu Zihe struggled instinctively.
At this moment, there was no fear in his eyes; ever since he decided to stand out, he had been fearless of Life and Death. The only regret was that the Qiu Family might have to pay the price for this wrong decision of his.
However, it was death either way. Even if he did not resist, the Qiu Family would only face the path of destruction; it was merely a matter of sooner or later.
But just at this moment, her movements suddenly stalled. She looked toward the side with some curiosity, while a look of wariness flashed and vanished in her eyes, immediately followed by a glimmer of greed.
If anyone who knew Mo Sanniang saw such a look, they would surely retreat three times over; this was the look in Mo Sanniang's eyes when she saw prey.
And Mo Sanniang's prey had never escaped. No, there was one; the other party not only escaped but also turned around and tricked Mo Sanniang.
At this moment, a young man was standing beside her, appearing from who knows when, watching her quietly. This person appeared out of nowhere, as if he had arrived in a single thought.
"What a handsome young man, hiss, no, that's not right..."
Scanning Shen Yu up and down, Mo Sanniang then shook her head and said with some uncertainty, "The limit of this world should be Soul Suppression, yet you seem to have surpassed the limit!"
"Truly a heaven-sent talent; to think there is such a genius in this world, today I have truly opened my eyes!"
Licking her lips, her charming eyes were filled with allure, while the greed in her eyes grew increasingly intense.
The way she looked at Shen Yu was as if she were looking at a table full of jade platters and delicacies; this was a more delicious existence than any of her past prey, truly making one drool.
If she could devour the person before her, why would she need to care about these losers in the Qiu Family?
However, the more powerful the expert, the more dangerous they were to her at this time. She was very weak now, so weak that she could capsize at any moment when encountering an expert. Otherwise, why would she have hidden in the Qiu Family for these past few years?
Especially a figure like the one before her, who must be the world's top genius; such figures are the most dangerous.
Recalling the scenes of geniuses from various eras throwing caution to the wind and trading their lives for others, rushing toward them like madmen. Even those experts who were old monsters like her sometimes could only drink hatred and perish.
Therefore, never underestimate the top tier of people in an era; how can one who carries the destiny of an era be taken lightly? Even if you have the momentum to crush them, they might still turn the tables against the wind.
Even in her prime, she would have to be careful when meeting such an expert, let alone now.
Flashing a smile at Shen Yu, Mo Sanniang's beautiful face was flushed with a rosy glow, as if she had become a bit shy. The greed on her face had already vanished completely.
"What is the young man's name, and are you married?"
"My name is Shen Yu, and I have come today specifically to take your life!"
"Shen Yu?" Hearing this name, Qiu Zihe's whole body shook; his eyes suddenly gained some color and a bit of hope.
He had not expected that this person who suddenly appeared would be Shen Yu. He had naturally heard of the legend of Shen Yu; that was absolutely the ceiling of the martial arts world.
Although the woman before him was terrifying and could easily toy with them in the palm of her hand, she might not be a match for Shen Yu.
But then, Qiu Zihe's eyes dimmed. He suddenly remembered the actions of the Qiu Family over these years and recalled the various rumors about Shen Yu.
This was a person who hated evil with a passion, a person who had slaughtered countless villains.
Perhaps the reason Shen Yu came to the Qiu Family was because he heard about the scandals of their Qiu Family and came to kill.
Their Qiu Family was, after all, only a second-rate family; could they survive after encountering a figure like Shen Yu?
In the end, both sides were people who could take the life of the Qiu Family, so what was he hoping for? Two tigers fighting over meat—their Qiu Family was that meat!
"You are Shen Yu; the rumors are indeed true!"
Mo Sanniang had naturally heard of Shen Yu's name. The Qiu Family was a martial arts family, and news from the pugilistic world would always be passed on.
The rumors about Shen Yu were the hottest in recent years; for Mo Sanniang, who was in the Qiu Family, it would be hard not to have heard of him while listening to those people talk about him every day.
She knew he was a genius, but she hadn't expected him to be such a genius; he was truly a peerless piece of uncut jade!
"Shen Yu, Hero Shen, I know you; you hate evil most of all. These people in the Qiu Family are all flower-picking thieves, full of evil, having done every bad deed; they all deserve to die."
"Hero, although I am in the Qiu Family, I have never done any evil deeds; Hero Shen should be able to verify this."
"Hero, come to think of it, I am also a pitiful person forced into this; you must save me from this sea of bitterness!"
Throwing the Qiu Zihe in her hand to the side, Mo Sanniang then put on a weak and delicate appearance, as if she were the one being bullied.
Just a moment ago, she was fierce enough to kill everyone in one go, lifting a burly man like Qiu Zihe with one hand; that ruthless appearance would make anyone shudder.
Do you think I'm blind and can't see what you just did?
Yet, a moment later, an inexplicable sympathy welled up in Shen Yu's heart, and he couldn't help but want to believe her words.
Even in his heart, there was a desire to carefully hold this woman before him in his arms and cherish her with care.
Pink Skeleton Mo Sanniang, she truly lives up to her name; it is easy to fall for it if one is not careful.
A flash of Sword Intent vanished, shattering all desires, while his eyes stared fixedly at the opposite side.
"I just said, I am here to take your life. As for the people of the Qiu Family, I will naturally not let those who are evil go."
"Hero, I have committed no wrongs; I am just a weak woman ruthlessly bullied by them. You want to take my life—can you truly bear to?"
As she spoke, Mo Sanniang swayed her willow-like figure and walked slowly toward the opposite side, whispering, "Hero, if you save me from the sea of bitterness, this lowly concubine, with her humble beauty, will offer herself to you. Why don't you marry me, Hero?"
Looking at Shen Yu with deep affection, her eyes were truly like a pool of warm water that could melt any solid ice.
An invisible force field spread out; even the Qiu family members who were just about to fight her to the death were now looking at her with fanaticism. Their appearance was that of total sycophants.
"I have also heard of the great name of Pink Skeleton Mo Sanniang; seeing you today, you truly live up to your reputation!"
"Even if you are already this weak, Mo Sanniang is still Mo Sanniang!"
"You actually know me?" Raising an eyebrow, Mo Sanniang withdrew her weak and delicate demeanor.
In that moment just now, she had already used quite a few methods. If this were in the past, no matter who was in front of her, they would have long since knelt at her skirt, desperately trying to please her, just to have her look at them more, even for a glance.
Yet the person opposite her remained calm; even though it was because she was extremely weak and nowhere near her peak, one still had to praise the other party for their good composure.
"I have been to Jingshan!"
"Jingshan!" At the mention of this place, Mo Sanniang's expression changed; that was her eternal pain.
"At Jingshan, I met a swordsman and obtained a wooden comb from his embrace!"
As he spoke, Shen Yu pulled a wooden comb from somewhere, then handed the wooden comb in his hand to the other person, "This should be your item, right? Now it can be considered returned to its rightful owner!"
