Chapter 62: The Bride Is Actually Zhang Xiaocui

~7 min read 1,361 words

As soon as these words were spoken.

The hand Zhang Xiaocui used to hold the teapot trembled slightly: "Lu Tianyu, we are all people who value credibility; words are not child's play, so do not speak lightly."

"This is Diling City; the fact that the two of you risked your lives to come here shows your sincerity."

"But sometimes, sincerity only moves oneself, not others."

She felt that Lu Tianyu was making empty boasts.

The strength of the Nether Three Sects far exceeded that of the Bahuang Star Domain; even if Ancestor Changmei broke through to the Void-Piercing stage, it would be of no help.

The Bahuang Star Domain was destined to be slaughtered, and she and Lu Wenbin were destined to become a thing of the past.

Lu Tianyu smiled slightly: "So, you are refusing then!"

"Can I take it that your feelings for Lu Wenbin at the time were all fake?"

He said this for Lu Wenbin to hear, to let him understand Zhang Xiaocui's meaning and extinguish his hopes.

Lu Wenbin stood up abruptly, his voice trembling: "Xiao Cui, did you really have no feelings or thoughts for me back then?"

"If you didn't, I will leave now."

As he spoke, his breathing became somewhat rapid.

Xiao Cui had clearly been interested in him back then; the two had even spent two days alone, and Xiao Cui's words had revealed that intention.

But now, Zhang Xiaocui had clearly refused, her words cold, completely devoid of that intention.

Yet he was still unwilling to give up; he wanted to hear it from Zhang Xiaocui's own mouth.

Zhang Xiaocui sighed deeply: "Wenbin, I did indeed have those thoughts about you back then, and I was waiting for you to come to the Liuli Sect to propose marriage."

"But the situation is different now."

"You can barely protect yourself now, how can you still look after me?"

"However, for the sake of the past, I can let you stay here and protect you for one month."

"After one month, you must leave no matter what; you know the reason."

She felt she had done all she could by doing this.

Lu Wenbin breathed a sigh of relief: "So that means you did have those feelings for me, but gave them up because of the situation in Bahuang."

"Since you want to wait for me for a month, let's come back after a month."

"If the siege of Bahuang is lifted by then, I will go to the Liuli Sect to propose; if the siege of Bahuang is not lifted, I will give up."

He looked at Zhang Xiaocui expectantly.

As long as Zhang Xiaocui had feelings for him, he would not give up.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiaocui still shook her head: "There is one thing I haven't told you: tomorrow, I am to be married to Shen Zhuofeng, the son of the Diling City Lord."

"There is no chance for you and me anymore."

"You should just stay here peacefully for a month."

"If there is nothing else, I will go first; I have just brewed the tea for you both, so please drink slowly."

"I will keep this private room for you."

As she spoke, she turned and walked out.

Upon hearing this, Lu Wenbin immediately cried out in shock: "What? The bride for tomorrow's wedding is you?"

"You, how could you marry that lecher! His nickname is 'One Wedding a Day,' changing one every day; you, don't you know that!"

He rushed in front of Zhang Xiaocui and grabbed her arm: "You, you are not that kind of person; it must be the Liuli Sect forcing you to do this, right?"

"You, you definitely don't want to marry someone like that!"

"You, can you..."

Zhang Xiaocui shook off Lu Wenbin, her expression turning cold: "No!"

"Do you think that after all this, we still have a possibility?"

"Lu Wenbin, you are too naive!"

"Our cultivation world has no emotions, only interests; if you don't understand this, you have lived in vain!"

"Take care of yourself!"

She flicked her sleeves and walked out.

Lu Wenbin stood frozen in place, his lips trembling, staring at Zhang Xiaocui's back in a daze.

The beautiful image of their reunion in his imagination had completely collapsed.

Lu Tianyu patted his shoulder: "Let's go!"

But just at this moment.

Bang!

The door was kicked open from the outside!

A cold voice rang out: "You aren't going anywhere!"

Shen Zhuofeng walked in slowly with his hands behind his back, followed by two old men in black robes: "Lu Tianyu, you are the number one wanted criminal of the Nether Three Sects; Lu Wenbin, you dare to covet my woman, you deserve to die!"

Zhang Xiaocui screamed: "Ah!"

"Zhuofeng, you, why are you here!"

She grabbed Shen Zhuofeng's hand: "The Bahuang Star Domain is under siege, they are the only two seeds left, just let them go."

"I beg you!"

She shook Shen Zhuofeng's arm and pleaded.

Although she did not want to be with Lu Wenbin in her heart, she did not want...

Shen Zhuofeng snorted coldly: "They ruined our good time tonight, and you are still protecting them."

"But for Xiao Cui's sake, I will spare you!"

"As long as you kneel down and kowtow to me, cripple your own cultivation, castrate yourselves, and crawl out on your knees, I will let you go."

He pointed at the ground: "One hundred kowtows will do."

"You both know how to cripple your own cultivation, and if you don't know how to castrate yourselves, I can teach you; I have a special technique, hahaha!"

In the eyes of Shen Zhuofeng, Lu Tianyu and the other were just grasshoppers in his palm, unable to jump away no matter what.

Insulting Lu Wenbin and Lu Tianyu in front of Zhang Xiaocui was also equivalent to indirectly slapping Zhang Xiaocui in the face.

Who told this slut to deceive him, fail to read the situation, and now even protect these two wanted criminals.

Zhang Xiaocui's face turned pale in an instant: "Shen Zhuofeng, I beg you!"

She was on the verge of kneeling to the ground: "I shouldn't have hidden from you that I was meeting them; I will definitely serve you well in the future and will never have any disloyal thoughts."

Slap!

As soon as she finished speaking, she was knocked to the ground by a heavy slap from Shen Zhuofeng.

"I've already given you face by not killing them; do you think I treat you like a human being!"

Shen Zhuofeng snorted coldly through his nostrils: "Zhang Xiaocui, in my eyes, you are just a tool for venting lust; do you not understand what a tool is?"

"If you dare to say another word, I will cripple you too!"

Shen Zhuofeng stared at Lu Tianyu and said viciously: "Kid, you snatched my spot at Changheng Academy last time; it's fortunate you ran fast enough to save your life."

"Let's see where you can run today!"

Lu Tianyu shook his head slightly: "Why would I need to run? You are the one who should be running!"

"I originally intended to take your life at the wedding banquet tomorrow, but since you delivered yourself to my doorstep, there is no need for you to stay alive."

Whoosh!

He lunged forward in a flash to stand before Shen Zhuofeng and threw a punch directly.

"Hmm? You still dare to resist!"

Shen Zhuofeng did not expect Lu Tianyu to dare to take the initiative to attack, so he turned his five fingers into a palm and shouted: "Bone-Melting Cotton Palm, shatter for me!"

But the next second, he let out a miserable scream.

With a crisp crack!

His palm was directly shattered, and his entire forearm was smashed to pieces along with it!

A figure flashed before his eyes, and his throat was already being gripped.

Shen Zhuofeng's eyes widened: "You, you, how did you..."

"Let me go! This is Diling City, my father is the City Lord!"

In his eyes, Lu Tianyu had no cultivation at all, and he did not know that Ming Tianqi had been killed by Lu Tianyu.
