360. Chapter 360: Oh, beauty, why be like this?
Nangong Xuntian was furious when he heard this. Even though the Nangong Family had already declined, ever since arriving here, who hadn't been respectful to him? Even Sun Taohong, who occupied his own territory, would not be like this upon seeing him.
How dared this woman before him?
He scrambled to his feet, making a move as if to attack Yi Zhuyue.
"You certainly have a big mouth. This Head of the Family would like to see just how much ability a little thing like you has. I hope you won't regret your decision today!" Nangong Xuntian said angrily.
Yi Zhuyue patted Ano's head to comfort her, only then having the mood to turn her head to look at Nangong Xuntian.
As soon as Nangong Xuntian saw Yi Zhuyue's celestial beauty, a flash of amazement crossed his eyes, followed immediately by a look of greed as he sized her up from head to toe.
Yi Zhuyue frowned deeply. This Nangong Xuntian was truly driven by his lust; his leering gaze was so obvious, disgusting like a vermin.
"Unexpectedly, you are quite beautiful, and a little firecracker at that."
Nangong Xuntian rubbed his hands together, revealing an angle he thought was very handsome, but in reality, looked extremely lecherous as he watched Yi Zhuyue. "However, little firecrackers always have a bit of a temper. This Head of the Family understands."
"You're the little firecracker, your whole family is full of little firecrackers."
Yi Zhuyue looked disgusted. How could there be such a huge difference between men?
Su Chen was upright and never did such sordid things, while other men were all like they were driven by lust, which was shameful.
She had likely forgotten the circumstances of how she and Su Chen ended up together; it was just because she liked Su Chen now that she subconsciously beautified his actions—a confirmed case of double standards.
"Oh, beauty, why be like this? I am the Head of the Family of the Nangong Family. As long as you follow me, you can stay in the Nangong Family and enjoy endless glory and wealth!"
Nangong Xuntian spread his arms, a confident smile on his face, and began to describe their wonderful future—which, of course, was entirely imagined by himself.
"Noisy!"
Yi Zhuyue could bear it no longer and immediately swung her hand, striking out at Nangong Xuntian without mercy.
Nangong Xuntian initially didn't care about Yi Zhuyue's attack; he assumed he had been sent flying earlier only because he was caught off guard.
But now, although that attack looked calm, the closer it got, the more he could feel the terrifying pressure within it.
This... this was already beyond what an ordinary Quasi-Emperor Peak Realm could achieve!
Nangong Xuntian was secretly shocked, yet at the same time, his face carried an incomparable fanaticism.
One had to know that he had been trapped at the Quasi-Emperor Peak Realm for a long time; if he could engage in Dual Cultivation with the woman before him, stepping into the Great Emperor Realm would be just around the corner! Thinking of this, Nangong Xuntian dodged Yi Zhuyue's attack in a sorry state, his face filled with greed as he said with great patience.
"No matter how you found this place, if you follow me, the benefits will naturally be countless. Besides, it's so tiring to be out and about like this. Just be my woman, and you only need to stay in the back courtyard and look beautiful."
Nangong Xuntian's voice carried a bewitching tone, quite certain that the conditions he offered would make Yi Zhuyue very tempted.
Yi Zhuyue couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth. She didn't know where Nangong Xuntian got his confidence from. What he said sounded high-sounding on the surface, but in reality, it was just asking her to abandon her personality and become a canary that only knew how to wash her hands and make soup, confined to the back courtyard.
She didn't know how he could even say it.
Originally, Yi Zhuyue had wanted to capture him alive to pry for more information, but now, she couldn't help it. This man was too shameless; he was simply a degenerate!
Thinking of this, she curled her lips in mockery, her gaze subconsciously looking toward Su Chen, her eyes carrying a questioning meaning. Su Chen looked at her gaze and inexplicably understood.
Yi Zhuyue was clearly asking: Can I kill him right now? Seeing that the person in front of him was stupid beyond belief, Su Chen also felt that even if there were any important intelligence, he would definitely not tell it to him.
Plus, with him speaking to Yi Zhuyue like that, even the emotionally stable Su Chen couldn't wait to kill him on the spot.
Thinking of this, Su Chen nodded.
Having received the go-ahead, Yi Zhuyue immediately rushed toward Nangong Xuntian.
Seeing this, Nangong Xuntian was overjoyed, unable to help but feel smug in his heart that his charm was unrivaled. So what if she was a beauty with profound cultivation? She still couldn't resist the temptation to follow him.
But he was disappointed.
The first thing Yi Zhuyue did when she reached him was to take her sword and mercilessly chop off his left arm.
"Ahhh!"
Nangong Xuntian instantly let out a pig-like shriek, his whole body curling into a ball in pain, his eyes bloodshot as he looked at Yi Zhuyue with fury.
"You bitch! You refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit; this Head of the Family is going to kill you!"
Nangong Xuntian gritted his teeth hard, his scarlet eyes glaring at Yi Zhuyue, wishing he could tear her to pieces.
"I am standing right in front of you; what kind of strength do you have to kill me?"
Yi Zhuyue looked at Nangong Xuntian with a half-smile, standing tall and graceful, looking exceptionally noble. "Just a mere Quasi-Mirror Peak, yet you dare to covet me."
Nangong Xuntian's expression was ugly. Through this exchange, he clearly felt the gap between the two of them. Even if he exhausted all his Heavenly Treasures today, he might not be able to hurt a single finger of the person before him.
Thinking of this, he immediately let out a strange cry.
Yi Zhuyue was a bit confused—had this person been stimulated too much and mutated? But Ano and Sen, who had fought Nangong Xuntian many times, immediately heard that he was calling for reinforcements.
"Big Sister, be careful! Nangong Xuntian is planning to call for reinforcements."
Ano said hurriedly, her large, watery eyes full of worry, wishing she could go up and help right now.
Hearing this, Yi Zhuyue couldn't help but laugh. She picked up her sword and in a few moves tied Nangong Xuntian into a big knot, lifting his chin with her sword: "I thought you had some ability; I didn't expect you only have this trick of calling for reinforcements."
"Don't be too smug! This Head of the Family tells you, once they arrive, it will be your death day! So what if you have such a cultivation realm!? How many Quasi-Emperor Peaks can you face at once?"
Nangong Xuntian's eyes were bloodshot, as if he had already imagined Yi Zhuyue's end, and he couldn't help but laugh wildly.
His arm was severed on the ground, blood instantly soaking his robes, and with him being tied up, he looked exceptionally wretched and insane.
Yi Zhuyue, however, smiled indifferently and then said: "Oh? You mean that once they arrive, my death day will have come?"
Nangong Xuntian nodded immediately, a haughty expression on his face: "If you are sensible, release this Head of the Family early. This Head of the Family might still remember our old ties and let you be my concubine. Do not refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit!" (End of chapter)
