Chapter 160 Jiang Wanxue Agrees
Yu Zian was horrified when he realized he couldn't dodge the attack. He had already distanced himself since he knew Jiang Wanxue and her protector could kill him.
But to think Jiang Wanxue would move this past and crush his armor while he was trying to teleport? Yu Zian understood that he fucked up.
Purple lightning flared as Yu Zian screamed in agony. Jiang Wanxue already felt her true qi was dissipating, Yet her determination to kill Yu Zian remained the same.
Using her utmost power, she killed him in a few breaths of time. Unfortunately, she and her team already absorbed the green toxic gas.
" Heh, You are truly admirable, Jian Wanxue." The assassin leader laughed viciously. " But this is Energy Disspitating Poison. I don't think you can escape now."
" Don't worry, me and my brothers shall enjoy your body thoroughly."
" KHEUKHH! Young Lady...Run!"
The old man's body glittered with pale armor as his blood qi soared. Evidently, he was overdrafting the energy from his body and blood.
Jiang Wanxue never thought there would be a traitor in her group. And since her true qi was leaving her body, she couldn't use her other powerful treasures.
" Hmph! Don't you think you have won?" Jiang Wanxue gritted her teeth as she took out a seal The seal erupted with a strange power as several threads of white light shot out from it.
Before the assassins could react, they diced into pieces as the ground washed with a pool of blood.
" Haah! Haa!"
Jiang Wanxie fell to her knees as her whole body was trembling. The old protector also took heavy injuries and used some healing pills. Yet, the poison on their bodies simply made the situation worse.
" Marvelous. To think you still had such a treasure. I guess I made the right choice to hold back a bit."
Jiang Wanxue's eyes narrowed when he saw two extra people pop out out of nowhere.
And their strength, both of them were at the Low stage of the Harmonization Realm. The old guard beside Jiang Wanxue became vigilant as he raised his sword and pointed at the assassins.
Yet, only could see his trembling body and exhausted eyes. He was clearly doing his best to fight against the poison.
" Tch, Who would have thought you are carrying a fragment of Ancient Lord Seal? It can activate without?any true qi after all."
" But I doubt you have more of that, right?"
One of the assassins pulled out his sword and a pale green aura flashed around it.
" Hmph, Even if I die, I will take down both of you." Jiang Wanxue could feel the weakness overwhelming her. Yet, Her eyes remained determined.
" Go and kill them all. We must not allow her to play any more tricks."
" Yes."
' Young Lady! Go!"
The old guard's eyes turned red as he slashed his sword. At this point, he was burning his life force to get strength from his body. However, the assassin who was in his prime condition, easily dodged the attack.
Jiang Wanxue didn't hesitate as she turned around. Pasting a dark colored talisman on her body, she rushed to leave. Only a few of her companions were alive now, and all of them were fleeing.
' Lady Jiang! You can't escape!"
The second assassin laughed loudly as he leisurely chased after her.
' I need to escape! I can't die here...' Jiang Wanxue felt her eyelids were turning heavy. But biting her lips, she persisted.
' It's really saddening to see you in such a condition, Young Lady Jiang.'
A voice startled Jiang Wanxue as she recognized him. She thought after killing the assassins blocking, Long Ming and the other two of Four Seasons Valley left.
' Help me! Save me and I will agree to any of your requests!'
Jiang Wanxue didn't waste any time as she spoke first. At this moment, she chose not to bargain and sought immediate effect.
Suddenly, the assassin's face twitched when he felt an overwhelming pressure falling on his body.
" Yo-You!!"
The assassin was shocked when he realized a young man wearing a mask swiftly appeared beside him without any notice. Quickly drawing his sword, the assassin twisted his body and attacked.
" Green Venom Three Slashes!"
The green aura seemed to erode the air itself as it attacked the masked young man. However, the image of a mystic mountain appeared around the young man as his arm shot out like an agile serpent.
*CRACKK!*
The speed of the young man was simply unparalleled. His arm was covered with silky threads of plum blossom colors as a refreshing fragrance spread out.
The arm easily charged within the gaps of Green Venom Three Slashes and landed on the dantian of the assassin. The assassin coughed a mouthful of blood as his eyes almost rolled inwardly.
The attack wasn't that flashy outwardly. However, the assassin howled in pain as the sword fell from his hands.
" My-My divine sea! MY DIVINE SEA! KHAUKK!"
Blood seeped out from all the orifices of the assassin as he rolled on the ground with pain.
" Hmm, Silkwave Demonic Yin Palm is worthy of being a Noble grade technique." Long Ming chuckled as he looked at Jiang Wanxue.
Although her face was covered with sweat, her expression was still calm. However, Long Ming could feel her lightly trembling body.
" Thank you for saving me, Young Master." Jiang Wanxue bowed as she looked at Long Ming. " In future, I shall...MNNNFFF!!~"
Before she could complete her sentence, Jiang Wanxue got pressed against the wall. With a gasp, she felt her lips getting sealed, as Long Ming kissed her fiercely. She struggled desperately, yet the young man before her was like a giant mountain whom she couldn't move at all.
Not to mention, the poison in her body blocked the true qi, and she couldn't muster her strength at all, falling to the mercy of Long Ming.
" Mnnhh..."
Jiang Wanxue felt despite being forced, Long Ming's tongue was pretty gentle. With the pleasure of having the first kiss taken so forcefully, Jiang Wanxue felt a mix of emotions.
Their lips parted as Jiang Wanxue looked at Long Ming gaze filled with anger and hatred. Yet, she didn't utter a single word against Long Ming.
" There is still one assassin."
" Ah, You mean him?"
Long Ming held Jiang Wanxue as he returned to spot where another assassin and the old guard were fighting.
" Haah! Haa! Young Lady... You are alright?"
The old guard was lying against the wall as he tightly held his wounds. In front of him, the dead body of the assassin was lying.
" How...How did you kill him?"
Jiang Wanxue was utterly surprised. She was sure that the old guard would either perish or be unable to hold back that assassin for much longer.
" Haah... When I was fighting, an arrow hit the assassin at the crucial moment, giving me the chance to kill it." The old guard panted as he looked at Jiang Wanxue.
" I am sorry, Young Lady. I couldn't help you much in Azure Sun Secret Realm."
Jiang Wanxue took out a pill and fed the old guard. " This is Flesh Rejuvenation Pill. Although the effect is slow, it will heal your wound completely."
" For now, just hide somewhere and recover. I shall..."
Jiang Wanxue looked at Long Ming who stood wearing a mask with a grimace. " I shall go alone."
" But... The poison..." nove-Lb(1n
Jiang Wanxue took out another pill and ate it. " This is Thousand Detoxification Pill. With this, I will recover my true qi in a while."
" Then old servant is relieved." The old man stood up and bowed. Looking at Long Ming, he sighed. " Benefactor, I shall leave the young lady in your hands then."
Long Ming: "????"
What is this situation? Am I not the rouge hooligan who is supposed to take advantage of you? Why are you leaving her in my hands?
Long Ming looked at Jiang Wanxue as his tone became firm. " Miss Jiang, I hope you don't take this kindness for granted."
" I am aware, Young Master Long." Jiang Wanxue sat cross legged as she slowly detoxified herself. " I have already finished my mission of obtaining Thousand Year old Jade Honey. So, I guess I can return without any regret."
" But since you have saved me, Tell me, What do you want?"
" Be my bed warming maid." Long Ming spoke with a calm tone.
Jiang Wanxue paused abruptly as her facial expression twitched. " Saying such things while having such a dignified expression, I really misunderstood Young Master Long."
" Many people did." Long Ming chuckled as he squatted down before her. " So, Are you willing?"
" No."
Long Ming sighed. He already maxed out his charisma though? Why an ordinary boy could have bed warming maids on while but he, who has Desolate Immortal Aura can't make Jiang Wanxue agree?
[ Ding! Great Crow of Dark Mysteries is scolding Host! He is saying how can you use only sticks without giving carrots?]
' Ah! My bad.' Long Ming was enlightened. He forgot that he hadn't give Jiang Wanxue enough benefits yet.
" Well, I believe Young Lady is gathering enough manpower to form a faction." Long Ming whispered in her ear. " However, It's evident that you are clearly lacking in this regard..."
" Princess..."
Jiang Wanxue's eyes snapped open as she glared at Long Ming. Long Ming could feel a strange pressure, from her body, the feeling of getting stared at by an ancient qilin.
" I guess you know far too much, Young Master Long." Jiang Wanxue spoke in a cold voice. " I wonder if you are truly on my side."
" I only take the side as long as there is the benefit." Long Ming grinned. " Struggle of the throne isn't child's play. Since I am putting my support here, shouldn't you give me something in return?"
" Your demands are simply ridiculous."
" Don't deny, Princess Wanxue." Long Ming grinned. " Currently, You are vulnerable. If I were to accidentally wander off, some big villains might catch you. Tut tut, it will be a disaster."
" For your goals and ambition, won't you agree to this request of mine?" Long Ming whispered even more gently.
" Just say yes for formalities. I won't make things difficult for you, at least not without your permission."
Jiang Wanxue gritted her teeth as she looked at Long Ming. " I... I agree."
" Swear a heart oath."
" Long Ming, You are going too far!"
Long Ming closed his eyes. " I swear to my dao heart that I won't go any excessive things to Jiang Wanxue without her permission if she agrees to my demand."
Jiang Wanxue was stunned when Long Ming took the heart oath without any hesitation.
' Yo-You will regret it.' Jiang Wanxue bit her lips as she spoke.
' I agree to your demands. I... I shall be...Ugh." Jiang Wanxue's cheeks turned red with embarrassment.
" I shall be your bed warming maid"
[Ding! Task completed! Host gets Seven Yin Lock Talisman]
" Whew."
Long Ming really accepted the mission at the last moment, Thankfully, the verbal agreement was enough to complete the mission.
However, at that moment, the entire cave shook violently.
