361. Chapter 361: We Truly Have a Meeting of Minds

Yi Zhuyue let out a snort and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

This Nangong Xuntian was truly as stupid as a pig.

"The reinforcements you spoke of, why haven't they arrived yet? Hmm?"

Yi Zhuyue looked at Nangong Xuntian with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, "You fool, I am now the butcher and you are the fish; I suspect you still haven't grasped the situation."

Reminded by her, Nangong Xuntian's complexion turned ugly.

He suddenly realized that his several Protectors should have appeared long ago, but now, let alone appearing, there wasn't even the slightest movement.

He finally felt terror, looked at Yi Zhuyue with a panicked face, and couldn't help but ask: "What have you done?"

"I didn't do much, just sent people to take care of the others while you were busy dragging Ano and the others back."

Yi Zhuyue looked at him nonchalantly, her gaze carrying a hint of laziness, yet the words she spoke were astonishing.

One had to know that his estate had several Protectors at the Peak Quasi-Emperor Realm, yet now she spoke of them so lightly, as if they were all gone!? One had to know those were Peak Quasi-Emperor experts, only one step away from ascending to Great Emperor and leaving the Tianxuan Continent; they weren't just common cabbages!

Yet in this woman's mouth, it was so sparse and ordinary, not even worth her taking action personally...

Who exactly was this woman before him? So terrifying... she was simply on par with that Ziwei Xianzi in the Ziwei Pavilion!

Nangong Xuntian's expression was horrified, his lips trembling for a long time, unable to utter a complete sentence.

The figure of the woman before him gradually became blurred, as if she had turned into a soul-reaping ghost, ready to tear him into pieces at any moment.

"You... who exactly are you!?"

Nangong Xuntian finally realized the danger of the situation and couldn't help but ask in terror.

"Me? Naturally, I am the one sent by the heavens to collect you."

Yi Zhuyue laughed softly, and the cold-glinting sword swept across Nangong Xuntian's neck.

The force wasn't great, but it left a shallow bloodstain on his neck.

Nangong Xuntian couldn't control his trembling, his tone carrying a hint of a sob: "I beg you, spare my life! I will be your beast of burden, I will do anything, as long as you let me keep my little life."

Ano looked at Yi Zhuyue with admiration; if she could be as strong as her sister, would she be able to protect her clansmen? Sen gripped Ano's hand tightly, his eyes filled with determination; he too would become strong, to protect his clansmen, to protect... Ano.

Yi Zhuyue let out a cold snort, channeled her Spiritual Power to lift Nangong Xuntian up, and threw him in front of Ano and Sen.

"This piece of trash is left to you to take your revenge."

Yi Zhuyue said to Ano and Sen with a gentle expression.

Turning around, when facing Nangong Xuntian, she changed her expression again.

"To treat others as they treat you; Nangong Xuntian, this Venerable naturally won't let you die so easily."

Such humiliation was even harder to bear than killing Nangong Xuntian; it was simply trampling his dignity firmly underfoot.

Ano couldn't help but step forward two paces and said to Yi Zhuyue: "Thank you, Sister, we are fine, you shouldn't be affected by us."

"It's fine, this is what this piece of trash deserves."

Yi Zhuyue let out a cold snort, her gaze carrying a hint of chill as she looked at Nangong Xuntian: "If you want to live, then beg them?"

Making Nangong Xuntian beg his former prisoners was even harder to bear than killing him.

But seeing that Yi Zhuyue's expression was not feigned, Nangong Xuntian understood that if he didn't beg, he probably really wouldn't survive.

Thinking of this, Nangong Xuntian's eyes were about to split, he gritted his teeth hard, and then said: "I beg... you, let me go."

"Is that the attitude you have when begging for something!"

Su Chen also walked out slowly from the shadows at this moment. He pulled Yi Zhuyue into his arms with a gentle face, looking at Nangong Xuntian with a smile that wasn't quite a smile.

Yi Zhuyue, who had been like a little hedgehog just a moment ago, now suddenly became tender and soft, nestling against Su Chen like a bird.

Nangong Xuntian gritted his teeth so hard he felt like he would crush them.

He could sense that the man before him only had the cultivation of the Great Saint Realm, yet he had Yi Zhuyue so infatuated.

Why!?

He was the Head of the Family of the Nangong Family, a Peak Quasi-Emperor, a genius only one step away from ascending!

How was he inferior to this brat?

Perhaps his gaze was too malicious, Sen couldn't help but step forward two paces and fiercely slapped Nangong Xuntian across the face.

"This slap is because you were disrespectful to him, you deserve to take it."

Sen said coldly, his eyes filled with intense hatred.

Nangong Xuntian was stunned by the blow; although Sen only had Great Saint Realm cultivation, he now had no power to fight back, and this blow was solid, making him gasp in pain.

Sen subconsciously looked at Su Chen, and Su Chen nodded encouragingly, as if telling him to take whatever revenge he wanted.

Encouraged, Sen took a deep breath, and with two more "slap, slap" sounds, he hit Nangong Xuntian until his nose was bruised, his face swollen, and he saw stars.

"You low-level trash! How dare you..."

Before the words were finished, Ano stepped forward, used all her strength, and slapped him across the face.

The words Nangong Xuntian hadn't finished speaking were stuck hard in his throat.

"These two slaps, one is because you humiliated Ano, and the second is because you treated life like grass and killed my Leiyin Clan members," Sen said slowly.

"That's right, you devil, you killed so many of my clansmen, today you must pay blood for blood!"

Ano's eyes were red; thinking of those clansmen who died to escort him out, she felt that killing Nangong Xuntian wouldn't be enough to atone for his crimes.

Nangong Xuntian was stunned by the successive slaps, and he was truly seeing stars.

"Don't get too cocky, if my master finds out, he definitely won't spare you!"

Nangong Xuntian said weakly.

"That will have to wait until you have the chance to live until then."

Su Chen was not intimidated by his threat at all, and even revealed a mocking smile.

"I'll go see how the others are doing. Zhuyue, you stay here and guard, make sure Nangong Xuntian has completely breathed his last before leaving, okay?"

After Su Chen finished speaking and received a response, he took two steps, then turned his head back and said slowly, "Don't let him die too quickly."

Ignoring the wailing and howling sounds from the people behind him, Su Chen found Xiaoxian first.

Xiaoxian was truly worthy of being from the Dragon Race; the Dragon Race's love for treasures was indeed no empty talk, as she had immediately found quite a few treasures.

Seeing Su Chen arrive, Xiaoxian went over excitedly and said to Su Chen, "Master, you've finally come. Those fellows were very troublesome; it was not easy, but we managed to defeat them one by one, and now they are searching for treasures separately."

"We really do have a meeting of minds."

Su Chen could not help but laugh.

When it came to plundering wealth, they truly had perfect tacit understanding. (End of chapter)
