Chapter 633: Scumbag, Poo
What are you looking at me for? What, the consequence of your actions is too much for you to bear? Besides, I’m not the only one who thought the same thing, so why are you looking at just me?
Ye Qing was ranting non-stop on the inside, but of course he didn’t say his thoughts out loud. He would have to be suicidal and masochistic to do that. Instead, he let out a cough, stared straight into the girl’s eyes and declared with full seriousness, “You’re right. A cute and strong girl like you is always right.”
Ye Qing then looked at Xi Duoduo and scoffed with disdain, “Scumbag. You have no idea what’s good for you. Poo!”
Xi Duoduo: “...”
Everyone: “...”
This hall is in dire need of some shame right now!
“Hahaha... you’re a good lad! I like you.” The girl was happy to hear this though. She looked away from Ye Qing and stared menacingly at the rest of the guests. “What about you guys? Do you guys have something you wish to share with me?”
“Nope!”
“Absolutely not.”
“You’re always right.”
Everyone obeyed their instinct without any hesitation whatsoever. Then, as if they had practiced this a million times before, they turned to Xi Duoduo and declared disdainfully, “Scumbag. Pooh!”
“Scumbag!”
“Scumbag!”
Xi Duoduo: “...”
You’re all a reputable jianghu warrior in your own right. Can we have some backbone in this hall? Ah?
Even if I am a scumbag, what the fuck does it have to do with you? Do you need to grit your teeth like I dumped your wife or something?
Oh my heavens that fucker over there actually spat at me! I can actually feel his saliva on my face! I’m gonna—
“Hmph hmph!”
The girl huffed out with delight before turning back to Xi Duoduo. “You see this? Do you admit that you’re a scumbag now?”
“Yes, yes, I’m a scumbag.” Xi Duoduo immediately replied in the meekest tone he could muster. “I promise I won’t do it again, so please... leave me some face.”
“Hmph! If you apologized earlier, then I wouldn’t need to waste all those breaths, would I?” The girl declared like a victorious general after finally squeezing an apology out of Xi Duoduo.
“In fact, I do.”
Xi Duoduo turned to look at the crumpled heap of a man at the far wall and answered with a complicated expression, “Do you still remember that I said that a tomb raider was the one who gave us the hand as a collateral? If I’m not mistaken, that man is none other than that tomb raider.”
“What? Are you sure, Mr. Xi?” Someone exclaimed in shock.
“I’m sure. I remember the scar on his face very well,” Xi Duoduo confirmed. “I already thought that something was wrong with him when he gave me the hand at the beginning. He seemed out of it and was barely coherent most of the time. Perhaps he had already succumbed to the hand then.”
“If that is true, then why would he give the hand to you as a collateral? For over five years no less?” Ancestor Greenwood voiced his puzzlement.
Xi Duoduo shrugged. “That is a question only he can answer, but...”
He glanced at the man again and shook his head. “It looks like that’s a question that will forever remain a mystery.
His little mistress had not held back. She had never planned on leaving him alive.
That was fine though. He was a businessman, not an investigator. He had no interest in finding out the whole truth about something, so the man’s death did not bother him much.
Xi Duoduo snapped his fingers, and two men appeared from the back stage. He ordered, “Take him away and bury him somewhere.”
“As you command!” The two men responded before walking over the man and carrying him on his feet.
It was at this moment the dying man suddenly grabbed one of the servants’ head and bit him right on the nose.
“Aaaaaaaaaargh!”
A bloodcurdling scream resounded throughout the Hill of Services. No one had seen this coming. The man should be incapable of lifting even a finger, and yet he had somehow to assault the servant.
By the time they came to, the servant’s nose had already been ripped off his face.
After biting off the servant’s nose, the man charged toward Xi Duoduo—or more accurately, the hand in front of him—while his face was covered in gruesome blood.
“You bastard!”
Enraged, Xi Duoduo brought out his Flame In Stone and showered the man with a jet of flames. His whole body caught on fire like his skin was made of oil.
The man could not seem to feel it though. He managed to grab the hand and hold it tightly against his chest.
“No one will separate us. We will never be separated again!”
Despite being covered in flames, despite the fact that his flesh and blood was turning black by the second, the man didn’t appear to be afraid or in pain at all. There was only infatuation, madness and love on his face.
