Chen Baixiang felt like she was about to cry. If Yang Qi hadn't been here today, she truly didn't know what would have beco of her. Now, he was her only hope.
To think I actually cursed at him before. I even called him a barbarian. Now I understand. You really can't judge a book by its cover. So people might only seem barbaric on the surface, while others are truly Demons in sheep's clothing!
"So what if I just want to have so fun?" Chuyun Xiong sneered, suddenly grabbing Chen Baixiang by the hair and yanking her toward him. "Heh, not only am I going to have my fun, I'm going to do it right in front of you! What are you going to do about it?"
"No, don't! Don't do this to !" Chen Baixiang was terrified.
A sheltered flower from a greenhouse, she truly lived in a fairy-tale world. She had thought a handso and wealthy man must be a knight in shining armor, little knowing he was more likely a Demon.
Yang Qi sat there without moving, rely letting out a soft sigh. "Chen Baixiang, I originally didn't want to interfere in your affairs, but I get along well with your grandfather. Plus, that shout of yours just now actually improved my impression of you slightly. Relax, don't be afraid. As long as I'm here, no one can hurt you."
As he spoke, he looked at Chuyun Xiong. "I'll give you one minute to think it over. Let her go. If you're a real man, let's settle this man-to-man. Don't take your frustrations out on a woman. Unless, of course, you aren't a man."
Chuyun Xiong roared with laughter. "I don't know how those two losers suddenly beca so useless, but do you really think you can scare ? We'll settle the score between us eventually; we have all the ti in the world. Since this bitch threw herself at , if I didn't take her up on the offer, wouldn't I be wasting her good intentions?"
"Chuyun Xiong, you're shaless!" Chen Baixiang cursed. "I thought you were a gentleman, but I never imagined you were such a filthy scoundrel. You're utter scum! The n from our Dragon Country are so much better."
She was filled with regret. She had made a terrible mistake, falling for such a piece of trash. The very thought made her feel like she had lost her mind.
"I advise you not to do anything reckless. Otherwise, I won't care who you are," Yang Qi said, his gaze turning cold. His patience was limited.
Chuyun Xiong laughed loudly. "Yang Qi, is it? Do you really think I'm easily frightened? I am the Young Master of the Hanfang Association, and I possess the royal blood of Kappa Country. If you dare to hurt , just wait to die without a proper burial! And didn't you see the n behind ? They are all experts from Kappa Country. Any one of them could easily take your miserable life. And you dare threaten ? You truly overestimate yourself!"
"Alas. You really brought people with you?" Yang Qi sighed, then suddenly flicked the tea from his cup into the air. With a light clap of his hands, the tea scattered into countless droplets and shot outwards.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
A series of thuds echoed through the room. By the ti Chuyun Xiong turned his head, his so-called experts had all collapsed to the ground.
"Impossible! They are all Great Grandmasters!" Chuyun Xiong was terrified. A dozen Samurai, all of them First Rank Great Grandmasters. He had thought that bringing such a force would allow him to do as he pleased in Dragon Country. He never expected them to be instantly defeated by an insignificant nobody.
Chen Baixiang was also stunned, amazed by Yang Qi's skill. But what surprised her more was his courage. Yang Qi had actually turned against Chuyun Xiong for her.
That is a man truly worthy of trust. I regret it so much. Why didn't I listen to my grandfather? Why did I insist on making an enemy of Yang Qi? Compared to those superficially refined gentlen, those sanctimonious beasts, Yang Qi is a real man!
She felt she was beginning to understand her grandfather's painstaking efforts.
Song Ruize hurriedly whispered into Chuyun Xiong's ear, "Young Master Chuyun, a wise man doesn't fight a losing battle! This Yang Qi is the man who defeated Wu Hongda, and Wu Hongda is a Fourth Rank Great Grandmaster. We can't afford to provoke him. Let's just drop it. The Elixir dicine Conference is what's important. Our plan is what's important!"
Chuyun Xiong's expression shifted several tis before he finally let Chen Baixiang go. "Hmph, do you really think I'd be interested in a woman who throws herself at
like this? What a joke! I was just amusing myself. If you want her, you can have her. A foolish, lowly woman like this, what right does she have to be with ? It's their honor to be played with by ."
With that, Chuyun Xiong and Song Ruize left. His injured subordinates scrambled away after them.
Chen Baixiang breathed a sigh of relief, but she couldn't stop the tears of humiliation from falling. It was so shaful. But as shaful as it was, she was lucky that nothing worse had happened. She had to thank Yang Qi. He had saved her.
She walked over and bowed deeply. "Mr. Yang, regardless of what I did before, I apologize. You are a true man. I was blind."
"It is a great virtue to admit one's mistakes and correct them. Go on, get so rest and try not to dwell on it. Your grandfather and I are good friends, after all. I won't hold a grudge," Yang Qi said with a wave of his hand.
"Thank you!" Chen Baixiang glanced at the two won beside Yang Qi, Lei Yingying and Zhu Benxiu, and felt a pang of envy.
I'll probably never have the chance to sit by his side now. I clearly had that opportunity once, but now I may have lost even the right to be his friend.
Sighing helplessly, Chen Baixiang turned and left. It was ti for this girl to wake up from her fairy tale.
After leaving, Chuyun Xiong was absolutely furious. He imdiately called the Hanfang Association and demanded they send two Fifth Rank Great Grandmasters to protect him.
"Young Master Chuyun, the final is about to start. Are you confident you can beat that Yang Qi?" Song Ruize asked, a hint of worry in his voice. After all, Yang Qi had successfully created the Energy Pill, sothing he himself couldn't possibly refine.
"Are you doubting ?" Chuyun Xiong snorted, and a ball of blue fla suddenly ignited in his palm.
"Water Elent Spirit Fire!" Song Ruize's eyes lit up with excitent. "It seems the legends are true! You really do possess Innate Spiritual Fire!"
"Of course. Rest assured, when it cos to alchemy, I guarantee no one can defeat . I just don't want that Yang Qi to live!" Chuyun Xiong said viciously.
"Understood!" Song Ruize grit his teeth and imdiately summoned his subordinates. "Pass the order to kidnap Yang Qi's sister, Ye Qianqian! For one, it will appease Young Master Chuyun. For another, if he really does turn out to be stronger than the Young Master, this hostage will prove useful!"
If Song Ruize had known what had previously happened to Ye Qianqian, he likely would not have had such an idea. Ye Qianqian had been kidnapped once before, so Yang Qi had significantly strengthened her protection. Currently shadowing her was the Fourth Rank Great Grandmaster, Iron Heart. In the entire Jingnan Prefecture, very few could defeat him.
