Chapter 439 (2/2)
General Ying was being rather silent; he was bummed out after losing the bet. Eventually, his vision landed on the opposite side of the room where Xue Ying was located alongside Jing Qiu. She was laughing and chatting alongside her husband.
Why is it that, no matter how I try to cultivate, it proves useless, yet he can cultivate for only 2,000 over years and become so powerful? He’ll even geto to become a World Deity with ease! Even his woman is so beautiful. General Ying’s eyes were filled with coldness.
“Haha… Brother Dong Bo,” General Ying suddenly mouthed.
Back in his seat on the opposite side, Xue Ying was initially startled. He then looked back and replied with a smile, “General Ying.”
“Brother Dong Bo, I’ve witnessed you act before, and I feel some affinity towards you. You may have this beauty.” General Ying waved his hand. The violet-robed woman was momentarily startled, yet he only glanced at her. “Your life will be in Brother Dong Bo’s hands in the future.”
As soon as she heard that, the mood of the violet-robed woman immediately brightened, and she turned happy. She had been afraid that General Ying would just sentence her to death.
Xue Ying couldn’t comprehend the situation. “General Ying, what is going on?”
“Are you perhaps looking down on me?” The silver-robed General Ying frowned.
“I would not dare,” Xue Ying replied.
“Haha, Brother Dong Bo, since seeing how Old Brother Ying is offering her to you, it would be best if you just accept her.”
“This is just him giving you a beauty. You best receive her.”
The other heirs from the rich clans took to encouraging him.
“I’ll have to thank General Ying, then.” Xue Ying sent a glance to his side. It was not difficult to discern how terrible the outcome would be for the violet-robed woman after her defeat. In that case, he found it fit to just accept her. As he did so, he transmitted over to his wife, “Jing Qiu, she’ll be yours to command in the future.” Jing Qiu smiled back.
At the sight of her smiling, General Ying could not help but squint his eyes.
She was beautiful beyond words.
And her temperament only served to make her beauty even more transcendental!
“Haha. Brother Dong Bo, seeing how I’ve given you a beauty, it would only be fair that you send one back to me, am I correct?” General Ying said. “I think it would be best if you give me the blue-robed woman by your side, alright?”
Xue Ying was stunned at first, but his expression rapidly turned ashen-gray.
At the same time, to his side, Jing Qiu was astonished for a moment, before a fury hard to conceal overtook her.
The atmosphere permeating the entire palace hall turned heavy, and the heirs from the rich clans started to sense that things were about to go awry.
“General Ying, have you perhaps drunk too much?” Xue Ying coldly retorted.
“What, you’re not even willing to hand over a single woman? Are you looking down on me?” A layer of frost was now visible in the eyes of the silver-robed General Ying.
“This woman is my wife.” Xue Ying unknowingly crushed the wine goblet he was holding into pieces. He sent the silver-robed teenager a cold glare, “General Ying, don’t you think you’re taking this too far?”
“Who cares that she’s your wife? Did you not hear me when I told you to hand her over?” General Ying replied with squinted eyes.
A trace of killing intent was now easy to discern in Xue Ying’s eyes.
It was at that precise moment that Luan Qi’s transmission reached Xue Ying’s ears, “Old Brother Dong Bo, Ying Er’s father might be a stage three World Deity, but he is merely an imperial bodyguard under His Majesty. However, his aunt is none other than the famous Venomous Ying World Deity of our Calm Sea Prefecture! He is his father’s sole child, and he’s just a Deity. He has only cultivated for 70 million years so far, but his personality is quite unique; without consuming any more treasures, he’ll find it unable to hold onto his true heart any longer. That is why he’ll go rather crazy every time he goes about conducting business. You’ll find no real worth in going against him head-to-head.”
“Old Brother Dong Bo,” another voice transmitted a different message to him, this one belonging to the second prince. “General Ying’s background is truly huge. He is rapidly nearing the time for his True Deity Heart to crumble, so he has turned rather mad. Even I can no longer handle him nowadays, so don’t go hard against him.”
The two of them transmitted messages over.
“Old Brother Ying, Old Brother Dong Bo took the top rank in the ranking battle, and his relationship with his wife is very deep. I suggest you take a step back this time,” the second prince said from his seat high above.
“Second prince, this matter is between me and Dong Bo. It’s best if you don’t barge in.” General Ying sent a savage glare in Xue Ying’s direction. “Now, are you deaf or what? Did you really not hear what I just said?”
Xue Ying’s right hand went loose, and the fragments of the wine goblet he had just crushed fell onto the table. He then looked at that silver-robed teenager with a grin.
Hua.
A blue-robed teenager had suddenly appeared right next to General Ying—it was none other than Xue Ying.
Pa pa pa pa pa pa pa! He immediately took to slapping General Ying’s face. The scene of him being slapped a dozen times in a row was like an illusion. In fact, he was slapped so hard that he was sent flying backwards. It was only after a gray-robed old man acted that he stopped in mid-air. The old man was livid, but he was, after all a stage one World Deity, and he did not think there would actually be someone in the palace who would be so daring as to act against his young master. The appearance of the Mirage body had truly been too sudden.
“You…you would dare hit me?” The slaps from before actually forced him to spit out some blood, and his teeth were all absent. Even his head felt dizzy. Even so, General Ying still turned back and to glare at Xue Ying on the other side of the room.
“Your mouth is too dirty!” Xue Ying sneered.
