Chapter 1024 “Refinement Success (3)”
There’s irony in the demon princess eye as she spoke: “How stupid can you be? Attacking my sister-in-law while my brother is away, that’s how you ask for mercy? If I let you go now then the one to die next is me.”
If Brother finds out I let the one behind the attack leave unscathed then he will break my body! So, for my own life and to cover my own ass, I must make these people pay!
At the thought of covering her own hide, Di Xiao Wan promptly swung her face around with the sweetest smile: “Dear grandpas, everything is alright now, I’ve solved the main issue already. I bet you’re all still very scared so go ahead and rest, I will have the bunch here cleaned up with my men.”
Relaxing in his expression over that comment, Bai Chang Feng gives his own beard a comb before speaking in an appeased manner: “How come your brother didn’t come with you?”
“That… he went into the secret domain in search of Xiachen. Now I am in charge of watching over the Demon Realm and protecting Sister-in-law.”
Scanning her surrounding after that reply, the princess was quickly deflated after not finding the familiar figure in which she sought.
“Where’s my sister-in-law?”
“She…” Bai Chang Feng falters for a second, “she’s inside the miracle.”
That answer actually made the sack of meat on the floor look up right away. He Lu had his suspicion that someone has taken the miracle prior to their arrival, now it just confirms the idea and indicated their Spirit Realm no longer has a chance for the treasure.
Understanding that much, the once arrogant man hangs his head low again, not wanting to attract further attention from Di Xiao Wan or anyone for that matter.
“Then I’ll stay here and wait for her until she comes out again. I can’t risk having other idiots coming to make trouble for Sister-in-law while she’s inside.” Reminded by her own words, the demon princess promptly glared down at the sack of meat with menacing eyes: “Little Rice, Tsing Yi, shred this bastard into pieces for me, I don’t want to see him ever again!”
He Lu nearly peed himself as he shot his face upwards in horror. “No…”
But before the man could cry out his objection, a paw had already come swinging over and sent him flying out. Then before that spinning figure could make an impact from being thrown so far, a white blurry flash had come before his face and pierced into the chest where the Dantian (core) was located.
Clack~
With his core shattered, He Lu was no different from an average person at this point. It’s equivalent to a death sentence anyways if there are no others to protect him forward.
“Along the way I saw the aftermath of what these thugs from the Spirit Realm did. They slaughtered thousands, including children and woman. Although we managed solve the crisis and save many, but the dead and wounded won’t change. I bet they would love to tear into these criminals who committed the heinous crime of taking their loved ones away, far more than whatever we can do to them.” Little Rice suggests after his act of crippling the prey.
It’s not that the tiger had a heart of gold, rather he’s just not interested in anyone not of the Celestial Rank. The soul wasn’t going to help his growth and the flesh on this bastard wouldn’t taste good either.
“Okay,” Di Xiao Wan nods, “then watch over him carefully. I don’t want those from the Spirit Realm coming over to rescue him when we’re not noticing.”
“No problem, leave this matter to me.” Patting his furry chest, Little Rice proudly proclaims his assurance and bit down at the man’s leg. His treatment was rough and uncaring when dragging the bastard away.
It has to be said though, this He Lu sure has a strong level of endurance in that body of his. Even after losing so much blood he’s still alive…..
“Tsing Yi (dragoness), you go too.” All smiles, the princess pricks her brow like she’s thought of something sneaky: “I alone am enough while waiting for Sister-in-law.”
Truth was, the girl wants to be the first one to welcome Bai Yan when she comes out of the miracle. This way her image would rise another notch, and that meant more leverage when asking for help against that mean old brother of hers.
