Chapter 154

To this.

Ximen Wudi was utterly unmoved.

His face was blank with indifference.

092 - Intimidating Huang Yaoshi, Huang Rong cried! (Subscribe, please!)

He took in the scene before him.

Huang Yaoshi's pupils contracted sharply.

He clicked his tongue inwardly.

Ruthless!

Both of them are ruthless!

One, at the slightest disagreement, orders a man to take his own life.

The other actually goes ahead and does it!

Does it have to be this sinister?!

I, Eastern Heretic Huang Yaoshi, hereby name you the most sinister of all!!!

Unlike his reaction.

Perhaps because she had only just entered the jianghu not long ago.

Added to the fact that she had always been well protected by Huang Yaoshi before.

Upon suddenly seeing this scene.

Huang Rong's pretty face went pale.

She instinctively covered her little mouth with a hand and turned her head away.

But, as luck would have it.

She happened to meet Ximen Wudi's gaze, one that regarded life with utter indifference.

She couldn't help but shiver.

A chill ran down her spine.

The whole girl was like a startled little rabbit.

She hurriedly lowered her little head, not daring to meet his eyes.

Seeing this, Ximen Wudi paused slightly.

Then, as if something had occurred to him.

He cast a teasing look at Huang Yaoshi.

And, amid the latter's wary expression, spoke slowly.

"Don't be nervous. Didn't you want me to lay down some terms?"

"Very simple — join my Qinglong Society!"

Although the man was already past forty or fifty.

And had only just barely stepped into the Earthly Immortal Realm.

He was not a fraction of Lord Chuan Ying.

But to him, talent was never measured by cultivation!

After all.

The Nine Provinces were simply too vast!

There were bound to be some prodigies held back.

Take Huang Yaoshi, for instance. Take Qiao Feng, for instance.

If from the very start they had been trained with the Qinglong Society's resources.

He believed.

That at this point.

Even compared with Lord Chuan Ying, they would be no worse!

Thus.

He naturally did not mind considering recruiting them into the Qinglong Society.

"I appreciate your kind offer, sir, but I must beg to decline!"

Without the slightest hesitation.

Huang Yaoshi shook his head and chose to refuse without a second thought.

"Is that so?"

"But when did I ever say this was a negotiation with you?"

Ximen Wudi chuckled lightly.

And countered unhurriedly.

At these words.

Huang Yaoshi's brows immediately knit tight.

"What do you mean, sir…?"

"Join the Qinglong Society, or you die, and she becomes my personal collection!"

Ximen Wudi said coldly.

As he spoke, he turned his gaze toward Huang Rong not far away.

His voice was soft.

Yet every word was steeped in a chilling, murderous cold.

If Huang Yaoshi agreed, then so be it.

If he didn't agree, he wouldn't mind adding another piece to his collection!

Anyway.

In his dictionary.

Since it couldn't be used by him.

Then why keep it around?

Waiting for the New Year?!

Suddenly hearing herself being mentioned.

Huang Rong was first stunned.

Then she felt a bit displeased.

In her lively eyes, a flash of dissatisfaction quickly darted past.

But very soon.

This dissatisfaction turned into worry.

Because she suddenly remembered.

The person before her was a 'high-ranking' member of the Qinglong Society.

The type who killed without batting an eye!

Coupled with the attitude earlier of Lord Chuan Ying and the former Grand Chanyu Dynasty's National Guardian Offerings.

And her own father's just-now backing down and apologizing.

All of these proved just how terrifying the other party was!

And hearing the current words, it seemed the matter couldn't end peacefully.

How could she not worry?!

Huang Yaoshi heard this.

His old face sank slightly.

A dangerous glint flickered in his icy eyes.

But when the corner of his eye caught the worried expression on his daughter's face.

His heart couldn't help but soften.

He snorted coldly through gritted teeth.

"Tragedy should not involve wife and children."

"For you to act this way is to challenge the rules — aren't you afraid of rousing public outrage?!"
