Chapter 1599

"You…." Hearing Ximen Wudi's words, Zhao Zirou was so angry that her delicate body trembled—this Ximen Wudi was simply far too arrogant.

"I don't care whether you surrender to me or not. If you want to surrender, then I'll let you off easy. Otherwise, you'll die a miserable death." Ximen Wudi said indifferently.

Ximen Wudi's words fell.

Zhao Zirou clenched her teeth and said, "I agree to surrender to you, but you must agree to one condition!"

Ximen Wudi said, "Let's hear it."

Zhao Zirou said, "I want to marry you!"

"What." Ximen Wudi couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"This is my only condition. Otherwise, I'd rather self-destruct!" Zhao Zirou said with a cold expression.

Ximen Wudi couldn't help but shake his head with a bitter smile.

1326 Ximen Wudi really found it hard to refuse

This Zhao Zirou was simply too extraordinary; Ximen Wudi really found it hard to refuse.

"Fine, you enter my storage ring first, and you'll know soon enough." Ximen Wudi said.

Zhao Zirou nodded, then dove into Ximen Wudi's storage ring.

She wasn't afraid Ximen Wudi would do anything to her—after all, she was a super powerhouse at the Heavenly Martial realm. If he really made a move on her, Zhao Zirou could completely dodge it.

Moreover, she wasn't particularly worried about Ximen Wudi either.

Ximen Wudi was merely at a minor Holy Teacher realm.

If he really made a move on her, she was confident she could take Ximen Wudi down with ease.

Whoosh.

Ximen Wudi took out a jade tablet, then channeled his divine sense into the jade tablet.

Very quickly.

Zhao Zirou's soul detached from the jade tablet and appeared outside.

"What a miraculous jade tablet. I couldn't activate it no matter what, yet you activated it so easily. Just how many secrets does your body hold?"

Zhao Zirou curiously sized up Ximen Wudi.

Ximen Wudi swept a casual glance at Zhao Zirou and said, "You guess."

Hearing this.

Zhao Zirou pouted, clearly not wanting to pay Ximen Wudi any attention. However, Zhao Zirou figured that if she really fell out with Ximen Wudi, there certainly wouldn't be any good outcome.

Zhao Zirou said, "If my guess is wrong, then your body must hold other secrets. Otherwise, how could you activate this jade tablet?"

"You guess!" Ximen Wudi continued.

"Hmph…." Zhao Zirou glared at Ximen Wudi discontentedly.

She truly hated this flippant tone and attitude.

……

Then Ximen Wudi said, "If I tell you, can you guarantee that if I say these things, you absolutely won't speak of today's matters to anyone?"

Zhao Zirou said, "Of course!"

Ximen Wudi said, "Since that's the case, I'll tell you these things."

Zhao Zirou nodded slightly.

She knew that if Ximen Wudi didn't tell her these things, she wouldn't speak of what just happened either.

"Here are three pills that can temporarily help you break through to the Half-Step Emperor realm. After taking them, you can rapidly raise your cultivation. See if you want to take them."

Ximen Wudi tossed a bottle of pills to Zhao Zirou.

Zhao Zirou opened the pills, and an incomparably rich fragrance instantly spread out. Zhao Zirou couldn't help but take a few breaths. She said, "This scent is truly nostalgic, this scent gives one a warm feeling of returning to a mother's embrace. Are you sure this is a pill, and not pill candy?"

Hearing this, Ximen Wudi rolled his eyes and said, "Of course it's a pill. This is a pill refined by a top-tier Alchemy Grandmaster of the Heavenly Martial Realm. It can help you raise your cultivation, and won't leave any aftereffects!"

Zhao Zirou nodded and said, "Since it's such a precious pill, I'll accept it. But this pill is worth a fortune—don't you think you're at a loss using such a precious pill as a betrothal gift?"

Although Zhao Zirou wanted to take advantage, she hadn't forgotten Ximen Wudi's worth.

She felt that Ximen Wudi producing such a precious betrothal gift did carry a sense of owing Ximen Wudi.

So Zhao Zirou wanted to persuade Ximen Wudi to take back this precious pill, and then compensate him in some way.

Ximen Wudi said, "This is a meeting gift I'm giving you!"

Saying this.

Ximen Wudi tossed three hundred thousand spirit stones to Zhao Zirou.

Seeing Ximen Wudi be so generous, Zhao Zirou couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

"You really are willing to marry me?" Zhao Zirou asked, somewhat in disbelief.

Ximen Wudi said, "If I wasn't willing to marry you, why would I give you such a pill? Didn't you say you wanted me to help you kill that guy named Li Hao? If I agree to you, this pill would be the dowry I give you. But now, I've compensated you with another one. Does this mean I can take it back?"

A half-smiling, half-not expression appeared on Ximen Wudi's face.

Hearing Ximen Wudi's words, Zhao Zirou couldn't help but be stunned.

She knew she had been played by Ximen Wudi.

But she had to admit, this guy Ximen Wudi was truly somewhat shameless.

However, Zhao Zirou wasn't the type of person who failed to appreciate kindness.

Ximen Wudi being willing to take out incomparably precious pills to give her as a dowry was already an extremely commendable thing.

Therefore.

Ximen Wudi being willing to compensate her, she felt, was also as it should be.

"Fine then! Since you don't want to marry me, then go kill him now. If you're willing to kill him, then this pill is yours. If you don't kill him, then this pill counts as my betrothal gift. How about it?" Ximen Wudi said with a smile.

Ximen Wudi felt this was a win-win deal.

If he did not kill Li Hao, Ximen Wudi would give Zhao Zirou this pill; if he did not kill Li Hao, then this pill would count as compensation to Zhao Zirou.

Such a deal was truly very advantageous.

So.

Zhao Zirou would naturally not refuse.

……

Zhao Zirou took a deep breath.

Then.

She slapped Li Hao with one palm.

Puff!

She slapped Li Hao's head clean off.

Li Hao's head instantly exploded into powder.

Then Zhao Zirou seized Li Hao's corpse.

"Let's go!" Zhao Zirou said.

Ximen Wudi said, "Wait!"

"What? Have you changed your mind?" Zhao Zirou asked.

Ximen Wudi said, "Take Li Hao's corpse away from here first."

"Mm." Zhao Zirou replied, then seized Li Hao's corpse and shot off into the distance.

Ximen Wudi turned and left.

He arrived atop a mountain peak.

At the summit of this mountain peak sat a young man clad in a black long robe.

The young man had a handsome face, the very image of a refined young noble.

"Young Master, have you ever heard of the Tianmo Sect?"

The young man turned to look at Ximen Wudi and asked.

Ximen Wudi said, "I've heard of it. Why does the elder ask me about the Tianmo Sect? Are you perhaps a member of the Tianmo Sect?"

The young man smiled slightly and said, "No, I am not acquainted with the Tianmo Sect. I merely heard, within the Tianmo Sect's sphere of influence, of a woman named Zhao Zirou who has been searching for something called the Tianmo Pill, so I came to see if I might happen to encounter Zhao Zirou."
