Huangfu Jue continued, âXiao Bai, you are a smart one, I think you know what I mean, donât you.â
There was a touch of threat in Huangfu Jueâs tone.
Xiao Bai nodded it head like crazy, it didnât want to ruffle Huangfu Jueâs feathers.
âMaster, please donât blame me, itâs not like Iâm not loyal to you or anything, itâs just you know Huangfu Jue, he is so scary.â
âPlus, we both know he is nice and friendly to you, he has saved you several times now, and technically, itâs not going to be like Iâm hiding something from you or lying to you because you are going to ask me about a kiss, I wonât mention it as long as you donât ask. Thatâs all.â
âWhatâs more, Huangfu Jue has already kissed you, Iâm sure itâs just a matter of time before he tells you his feelings about you, you will find out on your own.â
Xiao Bai tried its best to make itself feel better, it used all the excuses that it could come up with.
Huangfu Jue carried Murong Qingyan in his arms and rise to his feet, it was time to settle scores with the ones who had hurt her.
Huangfu Jue turned around and saw the serpent who was trying to break free the inhibition, Huangfu Jue clenched his fists, he wouldnât just let the serpent go, not after he had seen how Murong Qingyan was on the verge of death.
The serpent averted its gaze from Huangfu Jue, it could felt danger in the air, it knew Huangfu Jue would settle scores with it, big time.
The serpent had an unquenchable thirst for life, it kept banging its head and beat its body on the ground, trying to find a way out.
âYou low life!â Huangfu Jue cast a cold glimpse at the serpent and showed a cold smile, âYou have hurt her, I donât care who you are, what you are, you need to pay!â
With that Huangfu Jue lifted his hand and the next second the serpent who was still beating its body on the ground violently had become ashes in the air. Then a breeze blew the ashes away like the serpent had never existed in the world.
Chen Wenwen had turned mad jealous at this point, she had forgotten it was her who had taken refuge behind Murong Qingyan and pushed her out as a human shield.
Chen Wenwen couldnât think straight after she saw how Huangfu Jue looked at Murong Qingyan, how gentle Huangfu Jue was towards Murong Qingyan. She couldnât believe a man like Huangfu Jue would harbor romantic feelings for an ugly country girl like Murong Qingyan.
Chen Wenwen had been fawning on Huangfu Jue since she had joined them, to her great disappointment, Huangfu Jue hadnât even spared a look at her. But she just saw Huangfu Jue kissed that ugly face on her disgusting birthmark, she couldnât believe there was a man who chose that ugly face over her!
Chen Wenwen was boiling with rage.
âTime to settle scores with you, Miss Chen!â Huangfu Jueâs voice rang when Chen Wenwen was lost in jealousy.
âChilde⌠Childe HuangfuâŚâ, Chen Wenwen floundered, she raised her head with guilty.
What met Chen Wenwenâs eyes was a expressionless face, cold and solemn. The coldness inHuangfu Jueâs eyes sent a chill down her spine, she felt like it was her doom.
âHow would you like to die?â Huangfu Jue asked, âAs Iâve mentioned earlier, time to settle scores with the ones who have hurt her, the serpent has paid the price. Now itâs your turn.â
âChilde⌠Childe HuangfuâŚâ, Chen Wenwen knew Huangfu Jue meant business, he was really seeking revenge for Murong Qingyan.
Chen Wenwen shuddered as she recalled how the serpent turned into ashes in the air and all Huangfu Jue did was merely lifting a finger.
âPlease⌠please donâtâŚâ Chen Wenwen kept retreating, her eyes were filled with terror and she accidentally hit a rock and fell on the ground.
âHelp!â
Chen Xianbin, Si Huang and Butler Chen sped up as they heard Chen Wenwenâs voice, especially Chen Xianbin, he was so anxious that his countenance had turned livid.
They had no idea what was going on, but they knew something bad must have had happened to Murong Qingyan and Chen Wenwen based on Huangfu Jue and Xiao Baiâs reaction. Now they were more certain as they heard Chen Wenwen crying out for help.
However, they were somewhat rest assured because Huangfu Jue had already arrived, they had faith in Huangfu Jue.
To their surprise, Huangfu Jue now was the very reason that Chen Wenwen wasnât safe.
Huangfu Jue showed no emotion except coldness in his eyes, âI know you used her as a human shield, I figured the only fair way is to let you feel the same pain, the pain of something penetrating your body, donât you agree?â
âI⌠I didnât do that on purpose, I can explain.â Chen Wenwen crawled on the ground, âPlease listen to me⌠I just⌠I panicked⌠âŚâ
âLet me tell you what has happened, you were being your usual selfish self, you looked upon her life as if it was grass.â Huangfu Jue walked towards Chen Wenwen, âSo you listened to your instinct and pushed her out without hesitation, isnât that right?â
