Chapter 0755: Zhao Yanzhi's Wild Heart
Li Luo's sudden words directly disrupted Zhao Yanzhi's rhythm.
This caused even the pragmatic Zhao Yanzhi to feel temporarily lost, and her brilliant and flawless face hardened.
However, she quickly recomposed herself and gave an innocent look. "Sub leader, what are you talking about? I'm merely reminding you objectively!" Her peach blossom-like eyes looked a little confused and her words seemed so sincere that Li Luo had even doubted himself for a moment. Had he overthought things?
In the end, he could only shake his head deep down. Zhao Yanzhi was like an alluring demonic spirit. It seemed that she would be the most difficult to handle in the trio.
The other two were direct with their dealings and were much easier to handle. This one had a softer approach and wished to enthrall him, capturing him in mind and body. She clearly had a much larger ambition than the other two.
It was a pity Sister Qing'e was not here. Otherwise, she would truly let this little demonic spirit understand what it would feel like to be tormented.
Still, letting this lady mess around was a troublesome prospect as well.
"Really?" As Li Luo thought about it, a hint of frivolity appeared in his eyes before he stared at Zhao Yanzhi's smooth and charming face. After which, his gaze lingered for a brief moment before trailing downwards to take in all of the curvaceous sights before him.ReadNovelFull.com
"It's a pity. I feel that you're truly a work of art." As Li Luo spoke, he raised his hand to lightly brush Zhao Yanzhi's face.
Li Luo's sudden change left Zhao Yanzhi on the back foot, and her delicate body tensed up as she peered at Li Luo's gradually approaching hand, her slender fingers forming a tight grip in response.
She could not fathom Li Luo's intentions, and despite the fact that she had the urge to chop off his outstretched hand with her blade, rationality still took over, forcing her to smile increasingly more coyly.
However, after Li Luo had lightly touched her face, he suddenly stopped.
Zhao Yanzhi seemed to have turned a little frantic. Just what was she up to?
She was usually the one teasing others till they went mad, but she had finally experienced what it was like to be toyed with.
"Sub leader, what are you trying to do?" Zhao Yanzhi resentfully asked as her willow-like eyebrows turned into a frown. It was a look that made one both pity and adore her at the same time.
Li Luo grinned as he retracted his hand. "You obviously dislike being touched by members of the opposite sex, yet you act so amorously. Are you not tired of putting on this show?"
The booklet of information provided by Li Rouyun was full of descriptive information and inferences. This included numerous dark secrets of all of the different individuals. There was one specific line that stood out for Zhao Yanzhi, and that was the fact that she was suspected to hate men.
This was something that left Li Luo feeling like he had been struck by a bolt from the blue.
From this intel, Zhao Yanzhi seemed to be an individual who knew how to best take advantage of her gifts. She was greedy and pragmatic, but also able to waltz between countless relationships with ease, attracting admiration from everyone.
She held a low societal position at birth, having been raised in a brothel. She had paid an unimaginable price every step of the way.
Additionally, what no one could have ever expected was that deep down within her heart, she held an intense disgust for the opposite gender.
Every elegant smile was coupled with a heart trembling with rage.
Li Luo's guess was perhaps due to seeing too many abhorrent sights during her childhood, thus casting a shadow upon her heart.
Zhao Yanzhi seemed a little dazed at Li Luo's response. She had never expected that her deepest, darkest secret would be revealed so openly by him.
Her usual, graceful smile gradually vanished, turning into a chilly ambivalence. Even her coquettish air had turned frigid.
"Third Young Master, your intel is mighty impressive," she said.
"Am I tired? As the Third Young Master, you can never comprehend the difficulties I have endured. Even though you were raised in an outer divine continent, you had outstanding parents, so you have no idea what it feels like to be born as a dreg of society. The inner divine continents might be blessed with cultivation resources which far surpass those of the outer divine continents. However, do you really think someone who was born in a brothel could receive anything significant? Perhaps, Third Young Master, you think that I had to seduce and toy with men in order for me to obtain these common resources," Zhao Yanzhi indifferently continued.
Li Luo was silent. He could feel the burdensome meaning behind her almost spiteful words. The world was simply unfair. She had suffered way too much to obtain what she had today.
"My intention was never to look down on you. On the contrary, I feel respect towards you," Li Luo sincerely replied.
Zhao Yanzhi's eyelids fluttered slightly. His expression was earnest, and after meeting so many people throughout her life, she could feel that his compliment was genuine. Her gaze naturally warmed up slightly as a result.
"I do have the intention of flirting with the sub leader. After all, if you end up being enthralled by me and listen to my every word, it would be greatly beneficial to me," she honestly said.
"Using your advantages to gain further benefits is expected after all." Li Luo nodded in approval.
"When dealing with me, the new sub leader, it is understandable that you would utilize such methods to increase your sense of security. However, I don't think that this is necessary. So long as you remain devoted and perform sincerely when I ask of you, as mentioned previously, I will not mistreat any of you. There is no need to do such hateful things. So long as you complete your tasks diligently, you will be one of my people and I will always protect you," Li Luo solemnly explained.
Zhao Yanzhi looked at Li Luo with a look of surprise. Could it be this simple? He was speaking such dignified words, but did his heart tell a different story?
Regardless, the youth before her seemed to speak from the depths of his heart and without any falsehoods. With his identity, it didn't seem as though he needed to lie to her either. ReadNovelFull.com
Thus, she felt increasingly confused. After all, almost all of the men she had come in contact with in the past were just singing any tune she wished, all to satisfy their own disgusting desires.
"So you're saying I now have an impressive backer?" Zhao Yanzhi cautiously asked.
He nodded.
Zhao Yanzhi didn't seem to believe him. "Do you not lust for my body?"
She turned to look at her own body with slight disbelief. How could any man not be moved by this?
Li Luo's face turned dark. "As I said, I'm already engaged and I'm uninterested in you."
"Sub leader, is your fiancee in the outer divine continent? How can she possibly be more comely than me?" Zhao Yanzhi asked with a dissatisfied tone. Li Luo not lusting for her allowed her to heave a sigh of relief. However, she felt that it was impossible for there to be a lady who could possibly be more beautiful than her, especially in the desolate reaches of the outer divine continent.
She was extremely confident in her personal charms.
Li Luo glanced at her momentarily before shaking his head. "How can the firefly compare to the luminous moon?"
Zhao Yanzhi was so ticked off by that rude reply that she forced a smile with gritted teeth. "Sub leader, you should not joke any longer. When will you invite your fiancee to the Dragon's Fang Lineage and allow me to understand how bright the moon can be?"
"There will come a day." Li Luo smiled as the image of an elegant goddess appeared in his mind.
"When that day comes, you will understand why I do not lust for you."
