Chapter 886 887: Not Guilty of Death
"Cut it out, just looking at you once is enough to make anyone puke!"
"You filthy girls, don't go dirtying my true love!"
"..."
Not far away, the voices of the girls were incessant, as if they were going to swallow that young man whole. No wonder, the guy was insanely handsome, defying all logic.
"Boss... boss!" A young man with a sleazy look tugged on the other young man's sleeve and whispered, "Are these girls all attracted by my charm?"
So, I am this popular in the Immortal Realm among the girls? Why did I not know this before?
"You?" Xiao Tianyu turned his gaze, glanced at Xiao Jiu, and said, "Step back and see for yourself!"
"Back up?"
"Hm?" Xiao Tianyu nodded seriously, and Xiao Jiu actually believed him. He walked away a bit, but then he was stunned. The reason? The girls' eyes had never left Xiao Tianyu.
Damn, so these girls weren't captivated by me, but by the boss! This is a blow to my pride. How am I supposed to even date ladies when following the boss around?
My life is really tough, I tell ya.
Xiao Tianyu said calmly, "Still think you're the popular one?"
So full of himself, geez.
"Boss, you don't need to rub it in, alright?" Xiao Jiu's face sank in misery, as he wondered why his stunning looks couldn't draw the goddess's attention.
"Let's go!" Xiao Tianyu shot him a look.
"Where to?"
"Haotian Sect!"
Saying this, Xiao Tianyu lifted his step and walked away. Xiao Jiu followed behind eagerly. Though he had no idea what Haotian Sect was, being allowed a foothold in the Imperial Capital must mean it's a strong sect, right?
"Make way for me!"
At this moment, a girl's voice called out from the east side of the street. Upon closer inspection, the girl appeared quite poised, with an outstanding appearance. Her entire body was clad in various renowned Immortal Realm brands, clearly marking her as someone extraordinary.
Quite a few guards were chasing after her.
"Miss, please go back. Don't make it difficult for us servants, will you?" the leading middle-aged man yelled as he chased, looking rather helpless. They couldn't handle the bratty Princess when she threw a tantrum.
"Hmph, I won't marry that Chi Zhongtian guy, not a chance. Don't even think about it. Tell your master to forget about it!" The girl called out sassily, "That Chi Zhongtian guy is average in talent. What right does he have to match with me?"
"But he did achieve great merit!" The lead guard remarked, "This is something the Master had promised before. The Master always keeps his word. Miss, please forget about it!"
"No way!" Saying that, the girl sped up her pace. But preoccupied with speaking, she didn't watch where she was going, and then—bam!—she bumped into a firm chest. Seeing this made Xiao Jiu so envious it was palpable.
Geez, even standing around, the boss gets lucky. Is his luck with the ladies rigged or what? Why doesn't the girl crash into my arms?
"Who's the idiot blocking the way!" The girl shouted sharply, unreasonably, making Xiao Tianyu feel annoyed. Who's the idiot? Clearly, you bumped into me, right? Are all women in the Immortal Realm this rude?
Thinking about it made Xiao Tianyu feel stifled. He was a person who couldn't stomach injustice, so he grabbed the girl by the arm and snorted coldly, "Make it clear to me!"
"Say what clearly? Miss bumping into you is a blessing for you, let go quick!" As she spoke, the girl lifted her pretty eyes. When she saw Xiao Tianyu's distinct and chiseled face, she was momentarily stunned. Handsome, but not her type.
However, suddenly a bizarre thought sprouted in her mind—being a decoy might be nice. Besides, his aura seems to match well with mine. Using him to fool the group behind might just work...
"Don't get any funny ideas, apologize!" Xiao Tianyu's voice was cold.
"Do you even have gentlemanly manners? It was just a bump, you didn't lose an arm or anything!" Though saying this, the girl revealed a slight smile.
"Apologize or not?" Xiao Tianyu still held on.
"You're hurting me!" The girl seemed a bit aggrieved.
By this time, the group of guards had caught up. The lead middle-aged man stepped out, releasing his aura: "How dare you be rude to the miss, do you know who she is?"
"You shut up!" The girl's sharp shout made the middle-aged lead pause, and she continued, "He's my boyfriend. Tell your master to forget it!"
"What, sister-in-law? What's happening?" Beside them, Xiao Jiu was completely dumbstruck. Just arrived in the Immortal Realm, and the boss already snatched a side-girl? Isn't this pace a bit too fast?
The protagonist's aura truly is powerful.
Wait, so he's the future consort?
In that moment, several guards were left stunned too. What about Chi Zhongtian? He had achieved great merit for the Celestial Emperor, who had promised the Princess to him. Wouldn't this slap the Celestial Emperor's face?
This Princess is really willful.
Thus, the lead guard spoke, "Miss, don't be deceived by a pretty face. If you continue like this, we won't be able to explain upon returning!"
"Get lost!" The girl snorted coldly, her face enveloped in a hint of authority, making the guards' hearts shiver.
At this time, Xiao Tianyu coolly looked at the girl in his arms, "Using me as a decoy, is this fun for you?"
"I'll repay you!" The girl's tone had an element of command.
"Repay?" Xiao Tianyu sneered coldly, "Not interested!"
He, Xiao Tianyu, who commands the winds and rains, would care for a girl's repayment? How could that be? Moreover, Xiao Tianyu had just observed a faint arrogance in the girl's beautiful eyes, which he found very distasteful.
So Xiao Tianyu spoke to the guards, "Don't get the wrong idea, between her and me..."
"I'm Di Xin!" The girl interrupted Xiao Tianyu's words, momentarily stunning him. "Your surname is Di?"
"Of course!"
"Then you're from the royal family?"
"That's right!"
"The Princess?"
"Exactly!" Di Xin smirked slightly, and the pride in her eyes was unmistakable. Clearly, she was a person of vanity. Then, she continued, "Get rid of them for me, there will be rewards for you!"
"For your father's sake, I'll say nothing more!" Xiao Tianyu said lightly.
"That's enough!" Di Xin nodded. Her beautiful eyes turned to the group of guards as she said, "This man is indeed my boyfriend. Scram, and don't blame me for being harsh if you don't!"
"Miss, this makes it hard for us!" The leading guard was dumbfounded.
"Hard, is it?" Di Xin shook off Xiao Tianyu's arm and strolled over to the middle-aged guard, revealing a flicker of murderous intent in her beautiful eyes. "I said, I have a boyfriend and you still won't leave... then no need to leave!"
As she finished speaking, she suddenly struck towards the lead guard's Celestial Spirit acupoint with incredible force, leaving the lead guard thoroughly stunned. The other was a Princess; even if she killed him, it was his misfortune.
The lead guard thought he was about to be judged by the Princess, but a large hand caught Di Xin's wrist, leaving her puzzled, "Hey, why are you grabbing my hand?"
"They don't deserve death," Xiao Tianyu said coolly. The Princess's heartlessness is alarming, isn't it?
Merry Christmas Eve!
