Chapter 289: Xi Xi (1/2)

”Who is that?! Show yourself!” The short-haired woman shouted. She knew that someone had interfered with her attack, leaving it ineffective.

After she said that, a man appeared from behind the tree. Since they were in a forest, large trees were everywhere and could be used as a hiding spot.

Of course, this was Jin Rou.

The moment Jin Rou showed himself, the three yellow-robed women couldn't help but crease their brows. They tried to gauge the strength of this young man, yet they couldn't. They concluded two things by this, it's either he was a mortal or his strength surpassed theirs.

The three women likely to more believe about the former.

”Why do you intervene with our matter?” Though they thought that he was a mere mortal, the fact remained that Jin Rou had easily deflected her attack, thus the short-haired woman was still cautious, ”Do we have a grudge against you?”

It was understandable that she reached this conclusion. After all, in this world, mostly, people wouldn't care about other's business unless it was an utmost importance. Not to mention, Misty Ocean Sect was a very powerful existence here in God's Realm.

”A grudge?” Jin Rou smiled and shook his head, ”No. I don't particularly have a grudge with your sect.”

”Then why are you sticking your nose where it doesn't belong to?” The short-haired woman's temper was getting shorter. This man had no business or whatsoever with them, yet he still being busybody here?

”I just don't like what you're doing.” Jin Rou looked at Xi Xi, who was kneeling and hugging her child, ”You are bullying one weak woman and a child. Aren't you ashamed of yourselves?”

”You don't know anything. And you have no say in this.” The short-haired woman clearly said. Her tone was filled with hostility.

”True, I don't know anything.” Jin Rou nodded, ”But I really don't want seeing anyone getting bullied, especially if the person didn't have the capability to fight back.”

Jin Rou walked to the front of the mother and child and said, ”Besides, you clearly want to kill an innocent child, who didn't even know what is what. Just that, it already warrantied my interference.”

As a Celestial King, Jin Rou had the responsibility to take care of his subjects. After all, if he couldn't even save those in need in front of his eyes, how could he be a good overlord? He knew himself that he was still lacking in many aspects, thus he was aiming for improvement. And this might be a step forward towards it.

”Hah. You think of yourself as a savior? How childish.” The short-haired woman sneered in disdain, ”Saviors are easily killed. Because kindness is a poison.”

”I won't dare to call myself a savior or whatnot.” Jin Rou chuckled, ”But my conscience couldn't take it if I watch someone die in my eyes.”

”Hmph. Stop trying to be a saint.” The short-haired woman snorted and threw her whip with a grand momentum without warning.

The whip became an arc that carried a heavy power and destruction, capable of annihilating all the nearby living things in the close vicinity.

This short-haired woman, along with the two, were Destinies. So their strength wasn't something to be underestimated!

Of course, this was only applicable for those people except Jin Rou.
