Chapter 801: Killing in One Move

The man’s tone was arrogant and his eyes filled with viciousness.

As the young master of one of the four clans, he possessed an innate grandeur. He looked at Chen Xiu with vicious eyes when he spoke in an indifferent voice.

Ming Xiu ridiculed him in his heart. Chen Xiu actually dared to fight for Ancient God Lakshmi.

Where exactly did his confidence come from?

Clearly, he was only a branch family’s descendant, but still extremely ambitious. If he could be used, Ming Xiu would naturally be extremely fond of his temperament. The man could become an able general in the future and one of his arms. However, since he couldn’t be used, he had to be killed.

“As the holy daughter of Pipa Clan, how can you believe this Chen Xiu’s words?”

Ming Xiu turned around and looked at Liu Bailing, who looked somewhat pure and tender, and his gaze grew bright. As someone from Asura City, he was extremely fond of beautiful women, to the point of damaging the country and causing suffering to people. Although he was accustomed to outstanding women, but at that moment, he was attracted by Liu Bailing’s petite face.

Anyone who saw her palm-sized small face, ruby-like mouth as well as her undeveloped body would want to protect her. But the most outstanding characteristic of hers was the red dot between her eyes which brought out her delicate and lovable temperament to the extreme.

Liu Bailing saw that Ming Xiu was staring at her, and her complexion sank.

“You lecher, I won’t believe in anyone from Asura City,” she said coldly.

Ming Xiu smiled and said, “Then I will tell you exactly why so many people of Asura City are here for the children shining with the five-colored light.

“Among them, there is one possessed by Ancient God Lakshmi’s soul. The four great clans of Asura City have received orders to return with it. Oh, that’s right, that also means that most of the soul of your esteemed Ancient God Lakshmi has already been devoured by our Ancient God Asura.”

Liu Bailing’s complexion instantly turned deathly pale. Sure enough, it was as she had thought. Something had happened to Ancient God Lakshmi. If it was not the case, then she would have summoned the twelve holy daughters to the divine palace after returning from the lost battle.

If Ancient God Lakshmi perished, then Lakshmi City would be devoured by the six ancient god sooner or later. From then on, they would be reduced to the position of slaves without any rights in Lanlou.

“Now that you told me this, it is even more impossible for me to hand over the children. As long as Ancient God Lakshmi doesn’t die, then sooner or later, she will find Ancient God Asura to settle the debt,” Liu Bailing said coldly.

The next moment, a dazzling light burst out of the red dot between her eyes. Her five slender fingers pressed on the jade pipa, and she looked at Ming Xiu with confidence on her face.

“Abandon your resistance, and I will protect your clan. I promise you here to take you as wife, and after you and I get married, your clan will also be my clan. But if you continue to resist, then after your Pipa Clan is destroyed, I will take you as my concubine,” Ming Xiu said with a gloomy smile on his face.

Liu Bailing could not escape, just fight till the end, which was not really an option. If she agreed to Ming Xiu’s conditions, however, then given her position as the holy daughter of Pipa Clan, she would definitely become a formal wife. But if she refused, he would force her to become a concubine without any power.

When all was said and done, a formal wife was on the same footing as a principal wife, while a concubine was tantamount to a servant.

Because of that, Ming Xiu felt that Liu Bailing should accept his offer.

Chen Xiu, who was ignored by his clan’s young master, looked at the silent Ming Xiu and Liu Bailing with gloominess. Inside, however, he was sneering at Ming Xiu for overestimating his capabilities. The position of the twelve music clans was equivalent to the four great clans of Asura City, and each of the twelve clans had a holy daughter.

Regardless of their strength, all the holy daughters could use an inherited treasure to forcefully raise their cultivation to the level of a god. Although this increase was temporary, the women were still half gods. Moreover, as long as the holy daughters survived, their cultivation would grow higher and higher, and together with an inherited treasure to raise their cultivation, they would become terrifying.

In the meantime, Ming Xiu was only a young master of one of the four great clans of Asura City. Whether or not he was able to climb to the position of a clan chief and successfully become a god was completely uncertain. The road to the throne was paved in bones.

The two of them were not on the same level.

The only reason Ming Xiu dared to raise such a condition in front of Liu Bailing was because Ancient God Lakshmi had almost died in war. It was what allowed him to be so arrogant.

Chen Xiu, of course, knew what Ming Xiu was scheming in his heart.

Although he was attracted by Liu Bailing’s beauty, he was even more attracted by her strength. If she really became his formal wife, then his plan to obtain the position of a clan chief would go smoothly.

A wife with the strength of a god would be a great assistance.

“Young master really knows how to jest! You surprisingly try to haggle with the holy daughter. Don’t tell me that you feel that a holy daughter would really agree?” Chen Xiu suddenly said without the slightest regard for Ming Xiu’s identity or his nine subordinates.

After all, Chen Xiu’s own nine subordinates possessed the strength of a god. If they clashed, then Chen Xiu was confident about winning.

So before Liu Bailing could reply, Chen Xiu’s taunting voice entered Ming Xiu’s ears, and his smile became stiff.

He knew that although Chen Xiu was a descendant of a branch family, his pride was higher than the heavens. But he hadn’t thought that Chen Xiu would be unbridled to such a degree and surprisingly dare to ridicule him, the young master of his clan.

“You really have great guts. I want to see what exactly is the basis of your courage! Let me think, is it the reward promised by Ancient God Asura? Or is it the subordinates you hired through the guild after spending a large amount of money? I thought that you were a member of my clan so I didn’t want to kill you, but you insist on inviting your death.”

After he finished speaking, Ming Xiu waved his hand.

From behind him, a woman with two faces, at the front and the back of her head, like Chen Xiu, and wearing a skintight dress walked out. She rushed toward Chen Xiu while brandishing two blades.

Chen Xiu looked at the woman, and his expression tightened.

“I didn’t expect that you would end up relying on the young master,” he said with some surprise. “I thought that given your pride, you would also fight over the soul of Ancient God Lakshmi like me. This is truly unexpected!”

The women curled her lips into a sneer and looked at Chen Xiu as if he was a retard.

“The one who is shocked is me,” she said with a smile. “Chen Xiu, your strength is at most at the upper mid level among the branch descendants, so how could you dare to fight with young master for contribution? You should know your position and act accordingly; otherwise, you will be invite disaster. Your life was in vain.”

Chen Xiu did not reply, but looked at the woman in regret. She was also a branch descendant like him, but her strength far higher than his own. Previously, the two of them had refused the offers by the young master, so he did not expect that a prideful person like her would compromise in the end.

Suddenly, a feeling of sympathy rose in his heart toward the woman.

“If you want to blame something, you can only blame your pride. You weren’t born in the right position, but you still wanted to compete, so you could only invite disaster onto yourself. I hope that you will have a good next life.”

After saying that, the woman turned into a blur and charged at Chen Xiu. A cold glint flashed in front of him.

Chen Xiu took note of the incoming attack, but didn’t show any reaction. Expressionless, he looked at the figure getting closer and closer to him.
