"Hit where it hurts. I've already sent the Flying Tiger General. Since Chi Luoying is so important to Jiang Chen, let's see if he's willing to exchange his jade tablet for her."
The Flying Tiger General!
Xiao Tai's heart trembled. That was the trump card of the Xiao family army, the Zodiac Death Warriors. There were 12 of them, all Star Level powerhouses. Rumor had it that they were the absolute death warriors his father had personally chosen over the past tens of thousands of years. Most of them came from the Horsemen of the Apocalypse and eventually became the Xiao family's fans. Each of them had 12 subordinates, all Star Level powerhouses. These 100 or so people were the absolute trump card of the Xiao family army, and only his father could mobilize them.
Rumor had it that the Zodiac Death Warriors swept through the universe. They were even more powerful than the Horsemen of the Apocalypse, and they carried out countless missions in secret. No one knew of their existence because they were like ghosts. They would only appear if Xiao Yueyan gave the word. They were as quiet as a virgin, as swift as a rabbit, and as unpredictable as a thunderbolt!
The Zodiac Death Warriors had never been defeated. Wherever they went, not even a blade of grass would grow!
This was exactly what Xiao Tai was worried about. He didn't care if Jiang Chen died or not, but Chi Luoying was his beloved wife, his true love.
"Father, what about Luoying?"
Xiao Tai asked in a low voice.
"Those who achieve great things don't bother with trifles. You still want to care about a mere woman? Hmph, how can she follow me to achieve hegemony? After that old geezer dies, do you think Chi Luoying will follow you wholeheartedly? In this world, nothing comes without sowing. Only the strong can stand tall. It's time for the Heaven Awakening Star Field to change its master. "
Xiao Yueyan said coldly, not looking at Xiao Tai again.
"Father's teachings are correct."
Xiao Tai clenched his teeth, his expression a bit depressed. Chi Luoying was the woman he had been pursuing all these years, and she was the love of his life. That was why he had been filled with hatred for Jiang Chen and wanted to kill him. He hadn't expected that she would die at his father's hands.
Xiao Tai knew that if he wanted to achieve hegemony, he would have to make sacrifices. In the future, when he reached the peak of the Heaven Awaken Star System, countless women would be willing to kneel before him. How could a mere Chi Luoying compare to them?
"Remember, if a man is trapped by his emotions, then he will become a puppet-like lower body animal. Women are just the vassals of this world. A man must be ruthless, only then can he not be bound by external things, only then can he become a true expert. A soft-hearted man who acts on his emotions will forever be a failure."
After he finished speaking, Xiao Yueyan stood up and left. Xiao Tai remained at the same spot, nodding heavily as he gazed into the distance. In life, one had to make a choice. Although he was deeply in love with Chi Luoying, she didn't have him in her heart. Even if he was deeply in love with her, it was nothing more than wishful thinking. In the end, it would be all for naught. It was better to end things as soon as possible.
"Luoying, blame it on the fact that you are his daughter. I hope that we will be fated to be together in our next lives," Xiao Tai muttered to himself.
Xiao Tai muttered to himself. His eyes were filled with determination. You had to give up something to gain something. For the sake of their grand ambitions, for the sake of dominating the entire Heaven Awakening Star Region, the Xiao Family had suffered for countless years. That muddle-headed old thing should have died long ago.
… …
In the small building at the center of the lake, Yuan Wen held Chi Luoying's hand, her eyes filled with reluctance. Although she didn't want her daughter to marry Xiao Yueyan's son, what was done could not be undone. As a woman, she simply didn't have any power to speak of.
"Some people are unable to decide their own fate from the moment they are born. Unless you are able to become a supreme expert and change your fate, only then will you be able to decide for yourself. Otherwise, everything will be futile. Your father has married you to Xiao Tai. You will have to think carefully about your future."
Yuan Wen spoke in a low voice, her eyes filled with helplessness.
"I know, mother. I know what to do."
Chi Luoying nodded, her eyes somewhat pale and hollow.
"Jiang Chen is a good person, and mother feels sorry for him. However, sometimes, we simply can't control our own fate."
Yuan Wen sighed.
"I know. If you want to blame something, blame it on the fact that we are not fated to be together."
Chi Luoying smiled bitterly.
"Madam, it's almost time. The City Lord has instructed us to bring the First Princess back to the mansion as soon as possible."
Outside the door, a low voice broke the silence between the two of them.
"I don't need you to remind me."
Yuan Wen's eyes turned cold as she spoke in a deep voice.
The people outside the door were all guards of the City Lord's mansion. Yuan Wen and Chi Luoying exchanged glances. The people of the City Lord's mansion had already come to pick her up, so she had no other choice.
"Uh …"
"Protect the Emperor …"
"Pfff …"
"Pfff! Pfff! Pfff! "
Figures fell in front of the small building at the center of the lake. Yuan Wen and Chi Luoying's eyes were filled with a trace of nervousness.
"Madam, First Princess, hurry up and leave! Hurry … "
The guard leader outside the door was a Star level expert, and the ten of them were all elite guards of the City Lord's mansion. How could they fall in less than ten breaths?
Before the guard leader's voice died away, he had already fallen. Chi Luoying's heart sank. Who would dare to cause trouble here at this time?
"Take them away!"
With a low roar, the tiger-headed young man, who was masked, moved his palm and directly pushed back Yuan Wen, who was about to rush over.
Yuan Wen was sent flying, her face extremely gloomy. The surrounding atmosphere was extremely tense. These ten people were all Star level experts, and they gave off a terrifying sense of oppression.
"Who the hell are you?"
"Kill!"
The tiger-headed young man looked straight ahead.
"Wait! If you want to kill her, kill me first! "
Chi Luoying's face was pale. She placed the dagger across her neck and stood in front of her mother. This group of people came in a menacing manner. Even the guards of the City Lord's mansion were no match for them. All of them fell in a pool of blood, and without exception, their throats were slit.
"Get lost!"
The tiger-headed young man forced Yuan Wen to retreat with a palm strike, knocking her unconscious on the ground. It didn't matter if she died or not, but at least Chi Luoying couldn't die now.
"Take her away!"
The tiger-headed young man turned around and walked out of the hut as if he was walking on flat ground.
Chi Luoying looked back at her mother, feeling extremely worried. However, she didn't know who these people in front of her were and why they were here. Her current identity was extraordinary. Who was targeting her?
Jiang Chen held the invitation in his hand and looked at the hut in the distance. What he didn't expect was that the top ten experts would instantly kill the guards of the City Lord's mansion outside and kidnap Luoying.
"What a strong momentum. These people only have killing intent in their eyes."
Jiang Chen Leng Leng looked at them, but he couldn't just stand by and watch. He originally just wanted to look from afar because there was only Feng 'er in his heart. At this time, Jiang Chen had completely thrown his romantic feelings to the back of his mind. He didn't want to be controlled by his feelings.
