36: Chapter 36 Killing Intent

"Ah!!!"

A miserable scream rang out, and a dark figure fell from an empty spot as if appearing out of thin air.

"Bang!"

The sound of a heavy object hitting the ground had just rung out when the dark figure transformed into a stream of light and rapidly fled into the distance.

"Heh~"

You let out a soft chuckle, your figure slowly dissolving in place. When you reappeared, you were already less than three zhang behind the dark figure.

"Who are you? Why are you spying?"

Hearing your voice, the dark figure had no intention of answering at all; instead, the spiritual energy around its body grew even more violent, and its speed increased by another three parts.

"If you won't talk, then go die!"

With your current cultivation at the seventh layer of Qi Condensation, coupled with the execution of "Mirror Image Water Moon", your speed was so fast that few Qi Condensation cultivators could match you.

Feeling the strong wind coming from behind, the dark figure gritted its teeth and plummeted downward, hastily speaking:

"Spare my life, My Lord! This villain harbors no malicious intent."

"Hum~!"

Under its terrified gaze, three blood spirit shuttles steadily stopped less than an inch away from the center of its brow.

"Tell me, which faction do you come from?"

You walked up to it casually, a ball of extremely high-temperature flame rising in your palm.

"Gulp~"

Feeling that scorching temperature, the dark figure swallowed a mouthful of saliva, a trace of struggle flashing across the depths of its eyes. However, when it came into contact with your pair of icy cold eyes, all its psychological defenses completely collapsed.

"My Lord, this villain is a person from the Wang Family of Yunque City. Tracking you was the Second Young Master's task."

"The Wang Family?"

You tilted your head slightly, a figure flashing across your mind.

"Wang Hao?"

"Mn..."

Seeing your resolute expression, the dark figure closed its eyes as if resigning itself to fate.

It really was him?

He actually didn't go to participate in the Qingfeng Valley Mystic Realm, and instead ran all the way to Yunque City. Could he have chased after you specifically?

You were also deeply impressed in your heart; that brat really was persistent like a ghost.

Over the past four years, he had always fawned over you within the sect on ordinary days, but hindered by your identity as a personal disciple, he didn't dare to act rashly.

However, you didn't expect that he was actually the Second Young Master of the Wang Family, one of the four major families of Yunque City.

In this case, it wasn't impossible to make use of him.

"What did he have you follow me to do?"

You looked at the man in black whose face was as pale as paper from excessive blood loss, looking like he was about to die. Your brows furrowed slightly, and with a wave of your hand, you pulled back all the baleful Qi stained on his wounds by the blood spirit shuttle.

"Thank you, My Lord."

That person first expressed his gratitude, then immediately spoke:

"The Second Young Master harbors no malice; he only had this subordinate pay attention to your movements and report back in a timely manner."

"Have him go to Zhuixian Tower to wait for me tomorrow night. In addition..."

You cast a cold glance at him.

"Trust me, if you dare to utter a single word of what you saw today, I won't even need to make a move—Wang Hao will be more than happy to help me get rid of you!"

Having said that, you took back the blood spirit shuttle and leisurely walked toward the city gate.

As for whether this person would leak your secret or not, you actually didn't care. With the "Dust Transformation" trait, unless witnessed with one's own eyes, everything else was a trumped-up charge.

"Hoo~"

Seeing that you had finally walked far away, the man in black let out a long sigh. Coming back to his senses, he found that his back had already been soaked in cold sweat.

This time, since this young lady took the initiative to arrange a meeting with the Second Young Master, his mission shouldn't be considered a failure; there was even a possibility of turning misfortune into a blessing.

At the same time, he secretly swore in his heart to let everything he saw today rot in his stomach. This woman was simply too terrifying!

...

Zhuixian Tower, the most luxurious restaurant in Yunque City.

Even in a prime location like Central Que where every inch of land was worth gold, this building still covered a vast area, its pavilions towering into the clouds.

Outlined with gold paint and tiled with colored glaze, bright pearls were hung as lamps at night, their brilliant light illuminating half the city.

It was said that the building owner who founded this place back then followed an immortal maiden and left, hence it was renamed with the two characters "Zhuixian".

Night was gradually falling. Standing outside this resplendent building, you were also filled with endless emotion.

Speaking of enjoyment, these immortal cultivators who mingled with mortals surpassed those ascetic cultivators ten thousand times over, including those so-called four major families.

But this envious emotion only appeared for a moment before being ruthlessly cut away by you.

In the past, a mere minor villain could force you to abandon your bottom line, and the group of so-called beggars outside the city yesterday had also clearly demonstrated the true colors of this world to you.

No matter how gorgeous a flower was, under the ravages of reality and the merciless wheel of time, it would also be ground into dust, nothing more than a fleeting moment of brilliance.

Only strength and longevity were the goals you should pursue!

"This fairy, is there anything I can help you with?"

The voice suddenly sounding beside you interrupted your thoughts.

You glanced sideways and saw a plump, bloated man squinting his eyes, his gaze tangling onto you like a sticky spiderweb.

Today, you wore a floor-length red dress with a slightly open collar, revealing a section of jade-like collarbone. A narrow belt was tied around your waist, outlining a graceful curve that could be grasped with a single hand.

The fabric was as thin as mist, and as you walked, your snow-white skin was faintly visible.

Covered by a translucent veil on the outside, it happened to firmly protect this alluring scenery beneath the fabric.

This hazy temptation, like a pipa half-hidden, caused many gazes to fall upon you, yet the aloof and noble temperament inherent to a beauty made many people shrink back in hesitation.

"It's that profligate son of the Liang Family!"

"Liang Kai is notoriously lecherous, and his actions are flamboyant and domineering. Sigh, this woman..."

The discussions constantly coming from around made you clear on the identity of the person in front of you. The Liang Family, one of the four major families?

You sneered inwardly, spiritual energy slowly gathering at your fingertips.

Kill him!

Even if the King of Heaven came, he couldn't stop it!

Killing intent suddenly surged in your heart, because what you hated most in this life was this kind of lecherous fat man!!!

"Hehe~ Fairy, would you care to chat with this humble one?"

Seeing that you didn't speak, Liang Kai stepped closer, his extremely disgusting greasy face piled full of lewd smiles.

"Senior Sister Lin!"

Just as you were about to make a move, a figure hurriedly walked out from inside the building and blocked in front of you.

"Wang Hao?"

Liang Kai's footwork paused slightly, his eyes narrowing slightly.

As fellow four major families of Yunque City, the influence of the Wang Family had already faintly surpassed the other three families, while the Liang Family was declining day by day.

He was a profligate son, not a fool.

Judging from Wang Hao's previous address and attitude, this woman's identity was probably not simple.

Fortunately, he hadn't made any overly outrageous actions or words earlier; otherwise, today would be hard to wrap up...

Thinking of this, a flattering smile was squeezed onto Liang Kai's face.

"I wonder who this fairy is?"

"Liang Kai? What are you doing here?"

Seeing that you had a cold face and no intention of greeting him, Wang Hao gave an awkward smile, then turned his gaze toward the fat man, his words rather impolite.

A cold glint flashed across the depths of Liang Kai's eyes, but it was deeply suppressed by him again.

Seeing that neither of them welcomed him, he casually cupped his fists and prepared to turn and leave.

"Hold on."

Your voice made the surrounding crowd instantly quiet down. Everyone wanted to see what this stunning fairy, who had successively caused two young masters of high status to suffer setbacks, actually wanted to do.

"What instructions does the fairy have?"

Seeing you staring at him with malicious intent, Liang Kai paused his steps, yet he also returned your gaze without the slightest fear.

"Wang Hao, I'll give you a chance."

You stepped forward a few steps, arriving at Wang Hao's side.

The faint fragrance emanating from the goddess's body refreshed his spirit. Hearing the opportunity you spoke of, Wang Hao stared fixedly at your face, which was close at hand yet still completely flawless.

"Whether we have any need to continue chatting tonight depends entirely on..."

Speaking up to here, your tone paused slightly, your slender phoenix eyes even carrying a trace of a smile, and your white, jade-like finger nonchalantly pointed toward Liang Kai, whose face had completely darkened.

"Whether you can slaughter him!"
