Chapter 29: Money Speaks! 20
She was instantly terrified to the core, she couldn't be seen with someone who was rumored to be associated with the devil... Not to mention there are also rumors about 'them' being together,
Ling Fei's reputation in the sect is rock bottom and has an execution lingering around his neck.
At most, Ling Fei is supposed to be in a sect dungeon, waiting for the audience with her father. ( sect master regarding his case )
" Oh! Saintess Ling'r is still here, it seems you don't wanna leave my company. " Bai Lung uttered while his black robe shimmered menacingly.
Bai Lung's cold eyes went towards Ling Fei, " Well! Well! Who do we have here? Ahh! The 'Bum' with an immoral and vulgar tongue, probably due to lack of parents, "
His cold soul-provoking words were laced with a venomous chilly aura which was enough to make Ling Fei feel enraged.
How could he hear himself being called parentless and vulgar from the tongue of someone, who he despises the most?
It's unacceptable.
" Y-You... Courting Death!!! " Ling Fei roared in anger, his eyes almost popping out of sockets.
His veins on his forehead popped up, while he looked at Bai Lung, maintaining a strong eye contact.
There was an unspeakable aura surrounding them, a sparkle for a battle that might happen anytime.
The air was thick with tension while the chilly wind flowed vigorously.
Swoosh~
---
"it may be overstepping my boundaries a little bit, but I cannot help but wonder why would the saintess and the devil of the sect are together in late evening... I presume the words Saintess mentioned about herself and him having no connection to be fake, or perhaps my eyes must be seeing something...," Bai Lung turned his attention towards Ling'r.
" Ah-um! No! You got it wrong... After you left, he came to me, I really have nothing to do with him... It's just the situation is a little non-favorable toward me," She hurriedly explained with a frustrated tone and built.
"He was the one who reached out to me and advised me to run away with him, you have to trust me, I had no such intention if it wasn't for the debt that I owe him for saving my life, I would have personally brought himself in front of everyone," She added while she looked at Ling Fei and clenched her fist.
She was really in a tough position now,
The fear she hoped not to happen, really happened... She really should have made a move after the ten breaths of time.
Her moral values hold her back from attacking Ling Fei, which ultimately went against her.
Meanwhile, Ling Fei who saw this in front of his eyes frowned, his brows were tightened while his jaw dropped. Why was the goddess he favored so much acting like this?
This isn't the Saintess he knows, the Saintess he knows is a powerful and cold woman, untouched by the dust and above the mere reach of Lust.
No! This isn't right, he has to make a move, quickly... Such a graceful woman as herself shouldn't be trapped into the web of an evil spider such as Bai Lung.
A dirty pig shouldn't get a swan like her.
Tho, his goals remained big, but Ling Fei failed to realize if Bai Lung is a pig, then he can only be the fly that flies around the 'Digested waste material'.
"Y-You... Why talk to women, talk with me, a man, you coward. Yes, it was me who came to talk to her, and we love each other, I will give you ten breaths of time, cripple your cultivation base, and roll, or else, don't blame me for being ruthless,"
Ling'r: "..." ( is this for real? Why is my life full of burden, I am doomed, I am really doomed... )
Bai Lung: "..." ( is this guy being real? )
System: "..." ( nah! The junior has booked an appointment with King Yama )
Immortal Master: "..." ( Sigh! I can't... This brat only creates a mess, wherever he goes, )
Muttering such half fetched dialogue with such confidence, only a protagonist is capable of such a feat. Bai Lung has to give it to him, there is a certain level of shamelessness and Ling Fei has broken boundaries beyond boundaries when it comes to being shameless.
For Ling Fei, his confidence was a show, an act to impress Saintess and show her that he cares for her, he is there for her needs.
He wanted to make sure she trusted him, he wanted to present himself as a reliable person.
But when you are dancing blindly in the palm of someone else, your perception doesn't necessarily match the reality.
The same thing happened with Ling Fei.
Instead of trusting him and seeing him as an ally, she saw him as an enemy, a trouble maker.
In her eyes, Ling Fei was a narcissist, hypocrite, and shameless person who was dragging her into the depths of the abyss together with him.
Her face instantly turned cold while her eyes glinted with a deep red aura as she channeled her Qi into her fingers.
"You don't utter nonsense, I don't love you... As a matter of fact, I hate you... " She said angrily while she was ready to launch an attack at him.
"S-Saintess what are you doing? This man isn't as strong as you think he is, let's kill him and run away, " Ling Fei said while he looked at the dazzling golden aura in her index and middle finger.
" Ling Fei, hurry up and run away... Or else, you will meet your demise," The immortal master shouted from the ring as he realized Ling Fei had made the matter worse.
Things have already reached out of hand, the more Ling Fei barks here, the closer his doom gets.
