Chapter 1889: Jiang Luoli

~7 min read 1,317 words

Xiang Longao's tone was indifferent, as if she were speaking of some trivial matter.

Yet this single sentence could determine Jiang Luoli's life!

"If you truly dare to touch me, are you not afraid that my branch of the clan will fight you to the death?"

Jiang Luoli bit her lips until they turned deathly pale, staring fixedly at Xiang Longao.

She was not like Jiang Hao, who had his bones dug out.

Jiang Hao was a man, and his status within the Jiang Imperial Clan was never high to begin with.

Furthermore, his birth mother was merely an ordinary Elder with no great power, so Xiang Longao could naturally dispose of him as she pleased.

But she, Jiang Luoli, was at the very least the Second Young Lady of the Jiang Imperial Clan.

Behind her stood a massive branch of the clan, a force within the entire Jiang Imperial Clan that could not be ignored.

This was also the reason why Xiang Longao had never dealt with her before.

Although she had failed in her challenge this time.

She was still gambling that Xiang Longao would not dare to make a move against her.

"Oh, so you mean to say that I dare not?"

Xiang Longao tilted her head slightly; in those beautiful eyes, which resembled black gems, there seemed to be a heart-palpitating coldness.

The Qi within her body surged, accompanied by killing intent, sweeping outward!

*Puchi! *

Jiang Luoli was actually forced to her knees directly by this pressure!

"If you kill me, the clan branch behind me will not let this rest. By then, the entire Jiang Imperial Clan will fall into chaos."

"You have just become the Young Clan Leader; you wouldn't want the clan to fall directly into chaos, would you?"

Jiang Luoli knelt on the ground; although humiliated, at this moment, she still wanted to survive.

It must be said that she indeed possessed some cunning and depth; even at a time like this, she could still articulate the pros and cons.

Xiang Longao remained silent.

And just at this moment, a faint voice suddenly arrived.

"Miss Luoli, I think it would be better for you to submit. After all, Miss Longao will not be threatened by you."

Hearing this voice, Jiang Luoli's expression froze.

Jun Xiaoyao walked in casually, his expression peaceful as he looked at Jiang Luoli.

"Ah, it's Young Master Xiaoyao. What exactly is going on here?"

Beside Dongfang Aoyue, Dongfang Xinqing's small face revealed a look of astonishment and surprise.

She had previously been worried that Jiang Luoli's attempts to win over Jun Xiaoyao would have an adverse effect on Xiang Longao.

As a result, what was this all about now?

Jiang Xinyu's mind was a bit muddled.

Compared to the cunning of Xiang Longao and Jiang Luoli, Jiang Xinyu could be called a naive innocent.

"It really is you, Young Master Xiaoyao. Why did you deceive me?!"

Jiang Luoli's gaze was fixed on Jun Xiaoyao.

In those eyes, there was the anger of being betrayed, as well as grievance.

She was the Second Young Lady of the Jiang Imperial Clan; she had never fawned over any man.

Yet she had been willing to lower her status for Jun Xiaoyao, to fawn over him, to win him over.

She had even gone so far as to flaunt her own figure.

Although Jun Xiaoyao did not buy into that, she could indeed be said to care deeply about him.

She had even seriously considered Jun Xiaoyao as the most perfect partner.

She had wanted to be with him.

And now, Jun Xiaoyao had betrayed her.

"Miss Luoli, from the very beginning, it was you who took the initiative. I never said I would take responsibility."

Jun Xiaoyao smiled slightly, then said.

"Moreover, I have long been acquainted with Miss Longao."

Hearing this, Jiang Luoli's expression carried a trace of misery.

It was Xiang Longao again!

"Why? Where am I inferior to her?"

Jiang Luoli bit her red lips until strands of blood appeared.

"There is no reason. Perhaps it is simply because you are not her."

Jun Xiaoyao did not explain much further.

It was even less possible for him to say now what Xiang Longao meant to him.

"Heh, Xiang Longao, as expected, it has been like this since we were young. Everything of mine will be taken away by you!"

"Now, even the man I took a fancy to has been taken away by you!"

Jiang Luoli could not control her emotions and roared at Xiang Longao.

"Don't you always want to kill me? Come on then, let this branch of my clan fight you to the death!"

Jun Xiaoyao's betrayal caused Jiang Luoli's mental state to collapse completely.

She had also decided to throw caution to the wind.

Xiang Longao's beautiful eyes remained calm.

Even with Jiang Luoli acting so uncomposed, she did not have the slightest fluctuation.

"Sister Longao, Second Sister, she..." Jiang Xinyu hesitated to speak.

To be honest, although she disliked Jiang Luoli's scheming and jealousy.

No matter what, she was still her Second Sister.

At this time, Jun Xiaoyao continued: "Miss Luoli, I repeat, I advise you to yield."

"After all, the clan branch behind you has all practiced the techniques I bestowed upon them. In other words, the lives of most of them are also in my hands."

Jun Xiaoyao explained simply.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Luoli revealed a desolate smile.

She had lost.

She had lost completely.

Her final resort was the clan branch behind her.

Not to mention truly fighting Xiang Longao to the death, at the very least, she could have caused some negative impact.

And now, this final trump card no longer existed.

Under the calculations of Jun Xiaoyao and Xiang Longao, Jiang Luoli had lost completely and clearly.

She did not even have a shred of opportunity to resist.

However, this was also normal.

Xiang Longao was, by nature, a woman with powerful means.

Added to Jun Xiaoyao's methods.

Even if Jiang Luoli's schemes were deeper, she had to fall.

Xiang Longao rose from the throne and walked toward Jiang Luoli step by step.

Her high-heeled boots made crisp sounds, like the footsteps of the Grim Reaper!

"Sister Longao..."

Jiang Xinyu also clenched her fists.

Although she did not want to see Xiang Longao make a move against Jiang Luoli.

But if she truly did so, Jiang Xinyu could not stop her.

Xiang Longao stood still in front of Jiang Luoli.

At this moment, Jiang Luoli was still kneeling.

Xiang Longao extended her slender jade hand and slowly pinched Jiang Luoli's neck.

Jiang Luoli did not even have the ability to resist; at this moment, she was completely suppressed by Xiang Longao's Qi.

Only now did she realize that during the previous enthronement ceremony challenge, Xiang Longao had still been hiding her strength and had not revealed her full cultivation base.

"If you want to kill, then kill. This time, I will not beg you for mercy again!"

Jiang Luoli looked coldly at Xiang Longao.

Xiang Longao merely pinched Jiang Luoli's jade neck, her tone incomparably indifferent as she said.

"You said that from childhood to now, I have taken away everything that belonged to you."

"But now, I can tell you, I don't even disdain anything of yours!"

"And what I truly want, no one can give to me!"

Xiang Longao directly pinched Jiang Luoli's neck with one hand and lifted her up.

Jiang Luoli, like a chicken being pinched by the neck, turned bright red in the face.

Seeing this, Jun Xiaoyao was silent for a moment, then said: "How about sparing her life?"

Xiang Longao glanced at Jun Xiaoyao.

"Reluctant to let go?"

For some reason, to others, this originally indifferent sentence.

Felt as if there was a trace of sourness in it, although it was very faint. ===== CHAPTER 1890 =====
