Chapter 703 704: The Defeated Shall Die
The word "husband" turned Xiao Tianyu into the target of all. Xiao Tianyu was utterly speechless. What is this woman trying to do? He wasn't sure, but he was certain she was setting him up.
Knowing well that many young men had been coveting Lu Die'Er for a long time, and now she calls him "husband" at this critical moment, isn't she setting him up?
"Wow, is this guy really that charming?" Long Ling'Er's beautiful eyes flickered as she looked at Xiao Tianyu, revealing a meaningful smile, "Brother Xiao, you'd better wish yourself luck!"
"Are you gloating over my misfortune?"
"You figured it out, huh? Impressive, impressive!" Long Ling'Er laughed softly.
Xiao Tianyu was at a loss. Are women naturally experts at setting people up? This woman, I don't even know her, why is she doing this to me? How much hatred could there possibly be between us?
And just now, was it really just because I didn't take you out to eat? Was that necessary?
Da da da~
Soon, under everyone's gaze, Lu Die'Er gracefully stepped up to Xiao Tianyu, slid her delicate arm around his, her beautiful eyes full of affection.
This scene was enough to make many envious.
Xiao Tianyu was utterly depressed. He asked, "What do you mean by saying that?"
"You didn't take me with you, you deserved it!"
"Is that a reason?" Xiao Tianyu was exasperated. Why do beauties love to set me up?
"Of course, it's a reason!"
"..." Is it a woman's privilege to be unreasonable and her exclusive right to be wild? Xiao Tianyu had seen it before, more than once, but Lu Die'Er was more direct. Xiao Tianyu just wanted to ask, you're an ancient-style beauty, where's your ancient modesty? Is it really good to set people up like this?
"Oh no, there's another sister-in-law!" Long Ling'Er teased, completely gloating over Xiao Tianyu's trouble, "Xiao, does your wife know you're seducing women outside?"
"She's the one seducing me!"
"Same difference!" Long Ling'Er giggled, "Oh, by the way, it's your wife's birthday tonight. If I record this scene on my phone, Brother Xiao, you might have to sleep under the bed from now on!"
Long Ling'Er seemed to ignore those murderously glaring eyes around her. She ignored them, and naturally, Xiao Tianyu didn't care either.
Xiao Tianyu said with utmost sincerity, "Your sister-in-law says I'm too strong in some ways and encourages me to find a mistress, even suggesting I establish a Three Palaces and Six Courtyards set-up, with all the funding covered by her!"
"All right, you're unbeatable!" Long Ling'Er looked at Xiao Tianyu, speechless. To say something like that, how thick-skinned. And are you sure your wife said that?
It's one thing to disregard face, but to discard it entirely, what kind of person would that be?
Long Ling'Er would never believe that there would be a woman willing to support her husband financially to find Xiao Tianyu, and establish a Three Palaces and Six Courtyards, unless she was from a mental institution.
Xiao Tianyu glanced over at Lu Die'Er next to him and said, "What do you mean by this? Let go, you and I have nothing to do with each other. If you continue like this, don't blame me for being rude!"
As he spoke, a hint of coldness flashed in Xiao Tianyu's eyes, but Lu Die'Er completely ignored it, leaving Xiao Tianyu extremely frustrated. He couldn't possibly hit a woman, after all, it seemed there was no actual enmity between them.
"Rude?" Lu Die'Er chuckled lightly and pushed her chest forward, almost touching Xiao Tianyu's arm. She giggled, "How would you be rude?"
"..." Xiao Tianyu was lost for words.
But just at that moment, Long Ao couldn't help but speak up, "Sir, you are on brotherly terms with Ling'Er and have also won the favor of Lu Die'Er. You must be extraordinary. My Long Family happens to have a Holy War Platform. Sir, why don't you accompany me to take a look? It would also give us a chance to witness your talent!"
"Young Master Long is absolutely right. Sir, you must be very talented, and we would love to witness it!" A young man from the Long Family spoke with indifference, "This way, sir, you won't disgrace Lu Die'Er!"
Now, seeing Lu Die'Er so close to Xiao Tianyu, they naturally felt uncomfortable. That was one of the four beauties, Lu Die'Er. They absolutely cannot tolerate it, as long as Xiao Tianyu is trampled underfoot, would Lu Die'Er still like this loser?
At this moment, Long Ling'Er whispered in Xiao Tianyu's ear, "The Long Family's Holy War Platform gathers all the prodigies of the Long Family, and there's no shortage of those at the Earth Level Realm. Although they're inviting you, they clearly want to humiliate you this way!"
"Got it!" Xiao Tianyu nodded. The trouble with beauties was nothing new, and he then glanced at all the young men and said flatly, "Not interested!"
With that, Xiao Tianyu looked at Long Ling'Er and continued, "Ling'Er, let's go eat!"
"Alright!" Long Ling'Er nodded.
Hmm?
Hearing this, several Heaven Slayer Academy disciples, as well as those from the Long Family, showed a look of astonishment, and their gazes turned sharper. To refuse like this, he mustn't have any real talent.
So, a young man sarcastically said, "Looks like the only thing that won over Lu Die'Er's favor is that face. To be blunt, he's just an ornamental toy, it's laughable!"
"Long Jie, maybe he's just selling his looks!"
"I think so too!" Long Jie's eyes were filled with even more disdain.
This Long Jie held significant status in the Long Family. In his twenties, he was already at the Profound Level Realm Peak, one of the key individuals being groomed by the Long Family, known for his arrogance.
"Hmm?" Xiao Tianyu frowned, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes. He looked directly at Long Jie and said calmly, "Loser must die, how about that?"
The voice was calm, the gaze neutral. It seemed like Xiao Tianyu just said it casually, yet such a remark silenced the entire scene. Even Long Ao and those from Heaven Slayer Academy were momentarily stunned.
Long Jie mocked Xiao Tianyu for being all looks and no substance, and Xiao Tianyu responded, "Loser must die, how about that?"
Arrogant.
The statement was undeniably extremely arrogant.
At this moment, Long Jie's gaze froze. His face didn't look good, and his heart trembled. He stared into Xiao Tianyu's eyes and found they were as calm as ever.
Is this confidence or arrogance?
"Let's go eat!" Xiao Tianyu said softly to Long Ling'Er.
"Okay!" Long Ling'Er nodded.
"Hold on!" Long Jie couldn't hold back and spoke. He knew that not fighting would leave him without a shred of dignity, so he coldly said, "Fine, since you said it, loser must die!"
He, Long Jie, was one of the key individuals being groomed. He didn't believe that someone of similar age had any extraordinary abilities.
Tonight, for the sake of a beauty, is it worth risking one's life?
Seeing Long Jie agree, many people's hearts also trembled.
