Chapter 944 - 718: Little Snake’s Transformation (Part 2)
But the man before her had repeatedly rejected her advances, leaving her furious and embarrassed.
Her face grew increasingly impatient as she sternly questioned, "Xiao, you must understand, I’ve already shown you great respect! You’re in such a state, why do you still insist on resisting? What makes you think you have the right to reject me? What exactly... do you find lacking in me?!"
Wu Wei spoke with a hint of unwillingness.
She had grown up surrounded by admiration, never lacking for anything she wanted, and yet this male was the only one to thwart her repeatedly.
Lu Xiao closed his eyes, refusing to answer.
Saying more was pointless; he was too exhausted to respond. Or perhaps the physical pain left him incapable of arguing further.
Seeing his demeanor, Wu Wei grew even more irate and suddenly said, "You haven’t forgotten that foreign female, have you? I heard from my father that you killed the second-in-command, Sok, for a female."
"What is your relationship with that female? Is she... your Female Master?"
Though Wu Wei maintained a questioning tone, she already had the answer in her heart.
As the Young City Lord of Sky City, she was top-notch in status, appearance, prowess, and talent. Countless males wanted to marry her, even vying for a fleeting romance.
Yet she was disdainful, but had her eyes set on the outsider, Xiao.
Xiao was indeed outstanding, but she was by no means lacking.
Wu Wei didn’t believe Xiao, a normal male, wouldn’t be moved by her.
But in reality, her advances had repeatedly failed, and Wu Wei had a nagging suspicion that Xiao may have had a female partner before.
It’s just that the female wasn’t with him, maybe separated by circumstances, or she might not be alive.
Like other females, Wu Wei cared about such things but if it was Xiao, as long as he agreed to marry her, she could overlook it.
But what she hadn’t anticipated was that the female was still alive and would return!
Otherwise, with Xiao’s character, he would never defend a stranger without reason!
That female must have a significant connection with him, likely his Female Master.
The moment Lu Xiao heard this, he abruptly opened his eyes, his sharp and profound gaze flashing threateningly at her, making Wu Wei feel a sliver of menace.
She involuntarily stepped back two paces, her face turning sour, simultaneously realizing her inner suspicions might indeed come true.
The female saved by Xiao was indeed his Female Master!
She unwaveringly stated, "Looks like your secret has been uncovered. That female is your partner!"
Lu Xiao paid her no mind, closing his eyes again to hide the emotions that briefly surfaced, struggling to suppress his emotional fluctuations.
But Wu Wei had already seen through it, no amount of disguise would help. "If that female is unrelated to you, then whether she lives or dies has nothing to do with you."
Lu Xiao’s expression changed immediately, coldly asking, "What are you up to?"
Wu Wei sneered, "Seems that female is truly important to you. Xiao, who always remains unemotional, is showing such a look for her."
She crossed her arms and leaned forward slightly, mocking him, "Since you can’t let her go, I’ll just kill her."
A Wind Blade suddenly sliced through the air.
Wu Wei was startled, hurriedly retreating and the smile on her face vanished.
She glared at him angrily, gritting her teeth, "Even after being tortured like this, you still have the strength to strike! I originally intended to help you, but it seems you don’t need it!"
Lu Xiao knew the matter had been exposed and didn’t bother pretending anymore.
He completely shed his previous gentleness and politeness, his voice now only cold and murderous, "Don’t touch her!"
Wu Wei deliberately provoked, "Xiao, the more you resist, the more I want to conquer you!"
The more elusive, the more she desired.
Lu Xiao’s face darkened, the murderous aura around him beyond control, but the ’Return Nest’ was acting up now, he could hardly stand, much less match Wu Wei.
Wu Wei looked at his restrained and painful expression, confident in her stance, "I’ll give you one last chance, if you marry me, I’ll spare her... otherwise, I’ll deliver her head as our wedding gift!"
