257: We need to fight out.
However, as soon as she finished speaking, she realized something was wrong.
For a young maiden like herself to evaluate a man this way—if word got out, it wouldn't sound very good.
Especially seeing Lei Wujie's mischievous smirk, she knew instantly that this guy was doing it on purpose.
"Fine, you actually dare to mock me! See how I deal with you!" Sikong Qianluo picked up the long spear in her hand, about to strike.
"Stop! There are so many people watching. Be a lady, be a lady."
"If you're so fond of violence, no man will like you."
"My brother-in-law doesn't like violent women," Lei Wujie quickly advised.
"Oh? Really?" Sikong Qianluo frowned, looking at Lei Wujie skeptically.
"Of course! Which man doesn't like gentle women?" Lei Wujie spouted nonsense with a straight Face.
"Humph, you'd better not be lying to me, or else I'll make you regret it," Sikong Qianluo threatened.
"Pfft, your strength isn't even at the Grandmaster level. This young Master just can't be bothered to lower himself to your level," Lei Wujie curled his lip.
"What did you say?" Sikong Qianluo's pretty Face darkened as she glared at Lei Wujie.
Lei Wujie curled his lip and said nothing more.
Sikong Qianluo's Face flushed with embarrassment, but she didn't pursue the matter further.
Just as they sat down, a burst of music rang out, accompanied by waves of fragrant wind.
A stunning woman with a graceful figure, dressed in red, descended from the sky.
Seeing this beauty descending from the heavens, Tang Lian was completely stunned.
"So beautiful..."
When Lei Wujie saw her, he was merely amazed by her beauty.
However, the moment he thought of the purple-clad Moon Princess beside his brother-in-law, the surprise in his eyes faded significantly.
Compared to her, the woman before them was still somewhat lacking.
Yet, she exuded a sense of enchantment from head to toe, which was what truly attracted men.
In terms of looks alone, she wasn't as good as Moon Princess.
"Welcome to my Beauty Manor. It is rare to have so many Jianghu comrades here today. This humble one shall perform a dance to add to the festivities." Heavenly Maiden蕊's voice was crisp, and her posture was graceful.
Every movement stirred the heartbeats of the men present.
"Good... I've long wanted to see Lady Tianrui's dance. Today, my wish is finally granted. Good! She deserves a reward!"
As Heavenly Maiden蕊 finished speaking, the atmosphere of the entire venue instantly peaked.
Many people came here specifically for Heavenly Maiden蕊, but she rarely made an appearance.
Unexpectedly, she appeared today and was even going to dance for everyone.
This time, they would truly be in for a visual feast.
When Heavenly Maiden蕊 saw Tang Lian, a sharp glint flashed in her eyes.
Her target for coming here had appeared, but why was the golden coffin from the intelligence missing?
Could it be that the secret of the golden coffin had already been solved?
Or perhaps Tang Lian and the others had already opened the golden coffin?
But if they had opened the golden coffin, why would they still show up here?
While looking at Tang Lian, she also saw the people beside him and was surprised by the presence of a handsome young monk.
There was no information about this young monk in the intelligence. Could he be a companion they met on the road?
For a moment, Heavenly Maiden蕊's mind felt a bit overwhelmed.
Her intelligence was usually very accurate; how could something like this happen?
Unable to figure out what had gone wrong, it seemed she could only get the truth from Tang Lian.
"Enough! Stop f*cking dancing here."
"Tang Lian, hand over the golden coffin, or you won't leave this Beauty Manor today."
Before Heavenly Maiden蕊's performance could even end, someone had already lost patience.
A burly, coarse man stood up, shrouded in Evil Qi, his eyes glaring angrily in Tang Lian's direction.
He slammed the Large Ringed Blade in his hand onto the table, producing a dull thud.
This angry shout instantly silenced the entire venue.
All the men looked at the speaker with fury, their murderous gazes impossible to hide.
"Damn it, where did this bastard come from? Disturbing my fun?"
"Exactly! Daring to cause trouble in the Beauty Manor? Tired of living, are you?"
"Kid, if you don't want to watch, then get lost. You're not welcome here."
"Shit, a bunch of trash. Got a problem? Come taste my great blade."
As he spoke, the aura of the Xiantian Realm erupted from the man. Instantly, those who had just spoken dared not talk back.
There was no choice; he wasn't as strong as the other, and he didn't want to die yet.
Seeing no one speaking, the man looked smug.
"*Spit*... Trash, you're scared already?"
After speaking, the man looked at Tang Lian. Although Tang Lian hadn't brought the golden coffin when he entered, the man didn't think it had disappeared; rather, he thought Tang Lian had hidden it.
"Tang Lian, hand over the golden coffin, and I'll spare your life!" the man roared, pointing his ringed blade at Tang Lian.
Tang Lian's Face turned grim. He hadn't expected that even though they had reached the agreed-upon boundary of Snow Moon City, someone would still dare to cause trouble here.
What other secrets were inside this golden coffin? Could it be that Heartless wasn't the only one?
But they had seen the state of the golden coffin at the time; only Heartless was inside, with nothing else.
Tang Lian and Lei Wujie knew the other party came with ill intent, specifically for the golden coffin.
"Humph, if you want the golden coffin, you'll have to see if you have the strength," Tang Lian said, looking at the man with a dark expression.
Lei Wujie had no intention of moving; he had already discerned the other's strength.
Just the Xiantian Realm. Tang Lian was a Master of the Xiantian Realm; an ordinary Xiantian Realm cultivator was no match for him.
If he couldn't even handle this guy, he wouldn't have made it this far.
"Violence is forbidden in the Beauty Manor. Everyone, please give me some Face. If there's anything to resolve, do it outside," Heavenly Maiden蕊 said in a cold tone.
"Humph, just a mere performer. Why should I give you Face?"
"Today, I'm going to use force right here! What can you do to me?" The coarse man was incredibly arrogant, not even giving Heavenly Maiden蕊 any Face.
It was unclear if he truly didn't know who Heavenly Maiden蕊 was or if he was doing it on purpose.
"If you want to fight, then fight outside. Don't affect people's business here," Tang Lian said, looking at the man gloomily.
"Fight outside? I think you just want to run! Stop right there!" The coarse man roared, charging forward with his great blade.
Tang Lian knew very well that the other party was intentionally looking for trouble to muddy the waters.
However, since the other had already made a move, it was impossible for him not to fight back.
Instantly, the two clashed. At the same moment, several people who were with the coarse man quietly closed in.
Some of them circled behind Xiao Se and Heartless, preparing to strike.
In their eyes, Heartless and Xiao Se were just ordinary people, with not a single ripple of Internal Energy on them.
If they captured Xiao Se and Heartless first, victory would be within their grasp.
Then, they wouldn't have to worry about Tang Lian not surrendering.
Hearing the movement behind him, a smile appeared at the corners of Heartless's mouth.
He turned around abruptly, a red light flashing in his eyes.
Heart Demon Lure. The man hadn't expected Heartless to turn around at that moment and looked directly into his eyes.
