One of them sneered, "What's wrong, kid? You dared to do it, but you're still afraid of others talking about it? You have such a beautiful wife, but you're still not satisfied. You want to snatch the bride from us. This time you've tasted the bitterness, haven't you? But your wife is really magnanimous. This is the first time we've seen someone bring a concubine to propose marriage. She's actually willing to push her husband to someone else? "" How do you know? Maybe she's angry but doesn't dare to say anything. "" That's true. If my wife dares to say 'no', I'll divorce her immediately. "
Shangguan Yaohua finally heard some clues from the quarrel. He said, "Miss Ping used the excuse of looking for a groom to gather all of you here and catch all of you in one fell swoop, right?"
The person closest to him snorted, "If Miss Ping said she was looking for a groom, then she was really looking for a groom. It's just that she's a noble and won't be easily betrothed. In the end, didn't the gold ingot fall from the sky and be picked up by the Wulin Alliance Leader? Although this is expected, every time we brothers bring it up, we can't accept it! "" That's right, other than his title, which part of the Wulin Alliance Leader is better than us? " "If Miss Ping sees me, I'll make her head spin. She'll have her dowry ready at once, and the next day she'll be mine." "With that flat square face of yours, you can keep dreaming while you're still young! Miss Ping clearly likes me! "" It's me! It's me! If you're not convinced, then let's use our fists to clear things up. " The opposite prison had been quiet for a long time. They hadn't seen a fight for many days. As soon as they heard the commotion, they all clapped their hands and stomped their feet, screaming and jeering.
Shangguan Yaohua ignored them and turned to look at Nangong Xue. Both of them saw deep worry in each other's eyes. Nangong Xue said softly, "Shixiong really did become Miss Ping's husband … That's not the most important thing. Ping Family Manor's move has already implicitly made an enemy of the entire Central Plains Wulin. What do they want? Don't tell me they're not afraid of anything just because they have the support of the Seven Demons? This so-called groom search is actually a hidden conspiracy … Those aristocratic disciples don't know and are still rushing to Jiangnan to walk right into the trap … How can we think of a way to spread the news? "
Shangguan Yaohua snorted and sat down with his back against the wall. . When we were on the brink of death, did the Central Plains Wulin the Central Plains? Now they're in danger, why should we blindly? When he heard that there was a beautiful woman looking for a husband, he didn't care about anything else and pounced on her. He was greedy and lustful, so he deserved to suffer! Humph, put away your unnecessary kindness. What does the life and death of others have to do with me!
................................ to..........................................
................................... ..........'t........................ Let's say you're a guest from afar and you're patrolling the manor. What's there to be dissatisfied with? "
Ping Ruoyu was already bored and kept yawning. When her father finally asked, she rolled her eyes and smiled playfully, saying, "From what I see, everything is perfect except for a bedroom." Manor Head Ping was startled and blurted out, "A bedroom?" Ping Ruoyu laughed, "Yes. Father, think about it. The Seven Evil Spirits came from afar and his disciple is just a six-year-old child. Why wouldn't he be in a hurry to rest? You're showing him this and that, how would he have the leisure to do that? "
Manor Master Ping laughed and said, "Little girl, you're the one who's smart. Alright, that's all for today. But you've reminded me. I'll have to prepare some children's toys to make his disciple happy. "
Ping Ruoyu pursed her lips and left Manor Head Ping behind her. She followed a small path behind the main hall and turned into a hidden room. The room was filled with bright red silk ribbons and flowers. However, amidst the joyous atmosphere, there was a hint of coldness that made it difficult for people to blend in. Li Yijie was sitting upright on a bright red bed. His belt was tied with a bright red bouquet and he was wearing a groom's uniform. His expression was extremely stiff. A few strands of hair hung down from his forehead, giving him a deep sense of desolation.
Ping Ruoyu quietly approached him from behind and put her hands around his waist. She smiled and said, "Husband, I haven't been here for so long. Did you miss me?"
Li Yijie impatiently pushed her hands away and said coldly, "I've already done what I promised you. What else do you want me to do? "Ping Ruoyu said," Yes, you're very obedient and you've done very well. But all women want a status. You can give me the Wulin Alliance Leader's command tablet, why can't you give me a child? Let me have some hope and I won't pester you all day long. "
Li Yijie's countenance changed abruptly. He said, "We've already made an agreement. I hope you can conduct yourself with dignity. Even if I marry you, I'm just following the rules and doing some things that conform to etiquette. But I don't have the slightest bit of feeling toward you, and I won't touch you even a little bit. "
Ping Ruoyu smiled and said, "Alright, alright. Why are you reacting so strongly? I'm just teasing you. Since I have the Wulin Alliance Leader's reputation, I don't want the empty title of Mrs. Alliance Leader. If you want to get rid of me a little bit earlier and leave this place as soon as possible, you'll have to promise me something else. Tell me, when will you be willing to issue a decree to summon the heroes of the world and publicly give me the Alliance Leader position? Although this is just a formality, if I don't do it, I won't be able to be the Alliance Leader. I don't know how many people will refuse to accept it. Unless you say it yourself, this transaction can only be considered a done deal. "
Li Yijie glanced at her from the corner of his eyes and said indifferently, "I've never wanted the Wulin Alliance Leader's position. If you want me to give it up, it's not impossible. But you're still unwilling to answer. What is your goal? You're not a little girl anymore. You can't be thinking that it's new and fun, so you want to join in the fun, right? If it's for the sake of cooperating with the Seven Evil Spirits, and you want my Wulin Alliance to cooperate with you, then you can't blame me, Li Yijie. I swear I won't do it! "
Ping Ruoyu didn't get angry. Instead, he laughed and said, "That's right. You have a backbone. Of course you can disregard your own life. But father has already given you an ultimatum. If you don't relent, we'll make an example out of your woman. Your former fiancée, Nangong Xue, is now in our hands. Don't tell me you don't care about her? "
Li Yijie turned pale with fright. Stunned, he said, "You … what did you say?" Then he jumped up and said, "How can you go back on your word like this? At first, we agreed to your unreasonable demands. The only condition was to ensure Xueer's safety and not to harm her … "
Ping Ruoyu said seriously, "You've wronged us. Father didn't harm her. He only invited her and His Highness Prince Cheng to the Mountain Villa as guests. He served them well and didn't dare to neglect them. But if you insist on being stubborn to the end, father said to use all available resources. Then you'll be the one who killed her. You can't blame anyone else. "
Li Yijie was furious. He said, "Ridiculous! You don't even know her. Why would you be so kind as to invite her to be a guest? You obviously want to use her as a bargaining chip to threaten me. You're so despicable! If anything happens to Xueer, I don't care if you're from the noble Four Great Clans. I … I'll risk being despised by the whole world. I'll wash this place with blood and seek justice for her! "
Ping Ruoyu said, "Aiyo, husband, calm down. From what I see, you're so agitated not because we're making things difficult for Miss Nangong, but because she's with Prince Cheng. That's not a big deal. Didn't you marry me? We're all the same. To tell you the truth, we have hundreds of ways to deal with you. But recently, father's old friend is coming to the Mountain Villa as a guest. He specifically asked for Nangong Xue. This is the reason why I went through so much trouble to lure her here. "
Li Yijie suppressed the anger in his heart. He said, "I originally thought that the Four Great Clans were all superior people who knew how to respect themselves. But it turns out that … you're willing to work with evil people. You want him to help you at the cost of harming the people! Manor Master Ping has personally ruined his own image. So what if he can bring you back? His hands are stained with blood and sin. He can only suffer endless shame and abuse! The Seven Demons have caused so much trouble. He kills people and sets fires. He drinks blood and drinks flesh as his pillow. Are you going to share his good fortune with him? When he's full of evil, are you going to share his misfortune with him? Ask your own conscience. It's not too late to regret now! "
Ping Ruoyu was furious. He shouted, "Little brat, how dare you be so rude!" He pulled out a long whip with barbs from his waist. He twirled it in his hand and it exploded with a 'sou' sound. His voice suddenly became gentle, but it made people's hair stand on end. He said in a tender voice, "Husband, I'm coming to serve you. You must enjoy it. "He twirled his wrist and the whip whooshed through the air. With a 'pa' sound, it landed heavily on Li Yijie's back.
The clothes on Li Yijie's back immediately split open, and a hideous bloodstain was faintly discernible. When Ping Ruoyu saw the blood, she was even more ecstatic. She swung her arm, and the long whip made a whooshing sound. She whipped Li Yijie's back again and again. Li Yijie sat silently in his original position, not moving at all. He endured the burning pain on his back. Finally, Ping Ruoyu was tired. He looked at the long whip in his hand and saw that it was stained with bloodstains. It was almost impossible to tell the original color of the whip. It was obvious how hard he had hit Li Yijie.
She had been impulsive and calmed down. Her heart immediately softened. She put the whip back on her waist and gently removed Li Yijie's clothes. There were a few places that were dripping with blood. His skin and flesh were stained together. She tore slightly and heard a 'chi' sound. Her fingertips could also feel a slight tremor. It was obvious how much pain Li Yijie was in. When she finally removed his clothes, she saw that Li Yijie's back was crisscrossed and covered with deep and crisscrossed bloodstains. It was already badly mutilated.
Ping Ruoyu gently stroked the whip marks and then put her lips close to his. She could still feel the burning heat from the scars. She was so distressed that tears were about to fall from her eyes. She went to a nearby drawer and took out some ointment to stop bleeding and remove blood stains. She used her fingernails to pick it up and carefully applied it on his back. "It might hurt a little. You … you have to endure it a little." As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Li Yijie suck in a breath of cold air. Although he tried his best to endure it, he still couldn't endure the piercing pain.
This ointment was indeed very effective. However, when the ointment entered his skin, it was as if ten thousand steel needles had pierced his skin at the same time. It made contact with his blood, as if a huge hole had been torn open in his wound.
Ping Ruoyu bit her lip and said, "You … why didn't you dodge? You didn't resist and you didn't beg for mercy … are you trying to show off your power to me? What do you want me to do? "
Li Yijie clenched his teeth and forced a smile. "No," he said, "I'm living under someone else's roof. How can I have the right … to show off my power to you? It's only because you and I have a mutual agreement. I gave you the Alliance Leader's command tablet … and authority. You won't hurt Xueer. You can keep your promise. I … am very grateful. In the past, I didn't know how many big and small injuries I suffered. It's not a big deal … only … only when my injuries are this serious can I justifiably … take off this wedding dress that doesn't belong to me. Then my injuries … can be considered worth it. "
Ping Ruoyu's eyes widened. "You … you'd rather injure yourself than marry me?" Li Yijie didn't reply. It was a tacit agreement.
