Chapter 304: A Man with a Story
The more this happened, the more panic settled in Skywalker's heart. The taste of awaiting death was not pleasant, even making them feel that the place where Shangguan Biyue stood had become a forbidden area of death; whoever went there, died.
"You go!" Skywalker ordered a blue-robed practitioner.
Immediately, a look of fear appeared on that blue-robed practitioner's face. The place where Shangguan Biyue stood was indeed a forbidden area of death. Going there was suicide, wasn't it?
With this thought, not only did the blue-robed practitioner refuse to go, but he also took two steps back.
"Do you dare to defy my orders?" Skywalker's expression was cold, causing the blue-robed practitioner's face to turn pale. He then spoke to the green-robed practitioner beside him, "We'll both go together!"
"..." Hearing this, the heart of the green-robed practitioner tightened. That bastard is going to his death, why does he have to drag me along? The green-robed practitioner shook his head; hell no, not even if he were beaten to death.
"Both of you, go together!" Skywalker's voice was beyond refusal.
Clang~
The green-robed practitioner almost fell to the ground in shock. Inside, he cursed the ancestors of the blue-robed practitioner, but what use was that? Skywalker's orders must be absolutely obeyed, or the result would also be death.
Thus, they could only brace themselves and rush towards Shangguan Biyue. Shangguan Biyue stood there unmoving, seemingly waiting for death, but she was very clear that she wouldn't die; that guy wouldn't let her die.
Having a capable boyfriend truly gave her a sense of security.
Sure enough, just as the two practitioners charged, the sound of something breaking through the air came from outside the window, cold lights flashing, causing the two practitioners to scream and attempt to flee.
Bang~
A crisp sound rang out as two coins embedded deeply into their skulls. The skull, being the hardest bone structure in the human body, showed just how powerful these two coins were.
Then, with an expression of terror, the two practitioners collapsed on the ground.
Twelve practitioners had already died six, and they still hadn't figured out what was happening. The remaining six practitioners were finally scared, including Skywalker.
At that moment, a handsome figure silently floated in from outside the window, landing like a phantom in front of Shangguan Biyue. Shangguan Biyue's beautiful eyes shimmered, tears flowing as she hurled herself into Xiao Tianyu's arms, "I thought I would never see you again, wuwuwu..."
The once calm Shangguan Biyue now appeared as a frightened little rabbit in front of Xiao Tianyu.
"Silly woman!" Xiao Tianyu gently stroked Shangguan Biyue's hair, softly saying, "I told you, your life belongs to me, and no one else can harm you a single bit!"
Though the words carried a sense of dominance, they were warm. Shangguan Biyue looked into Xiao Tianyu's eyes and nodded firmly, "Mhm!"
Just moments ago, Shangguan Biyue was truly afraid, not of dying, but of dying without ever seeing Xiao Tianyu again. Now, with Xiao Tianyu's appearance, her heart finally settled.
"Fortress Master of the Twelve Flying Peng Castles!" At this moment, Skywalker exclaimed in fear, causing the other practitioners' legs to almost buckle beneath them, nearly making them kneel. Skywalker continued, "Punishment for traitors by the Seven-Star Tower—are you Twelve Flying Peng Castles going to interfere too?"
Hearing this, Xiao Tianyu's deep gaze finally settled on Skywalker, faintly saying, "I only know she's my woman!"
The words brought a warm feeling to Shangguan Biyue's heart.
"You..."
"If you don't leave now, do you want to stay here forever?" Xiao Tianyu's voice carried a hint of killing intent, making the remaining six practitioners shiver in their hearts, not daring even to look Xiao Tianyu in the eye.
"Let's go!" Skywalker snorted coldly, just about to turn around, but a domineering voice came from behind: "Go back and tell Duan Xingnan, this is the second time he has provoked me. One more time, and the Seven-Star Tower will cease to exist. It would be best not to doubt my words!"
A mere Seven-Star Tower, Xiao Tianyu initially didn't intend to deal with. If they continued to challenge his dignity, he didn't mind destroying it with a wave of his hand.
"I will convey the message!" With that, Skywalker took the remaining five and floated out the window.
Shangguan Biyue's beautiful eyes lifted, scanning the living room, and said, "Tianyu, what should we do with these bodies? Should we call the community security to handle them? However, doing so will surely alert the police, which will bring trouble!"
"No need!" Xiao Tianyu shook his head. The next moment, with a wave of his hand, the bodies disappeared into thin air, causing Shangguan Biyue's beautiful eyes to widen. Is this... is this guy performing magic?
Thus, Shangguan Biyue couldn't help but ask, "Tianyu, where did you hide the bodies?"
"Burned them!"
"Burned them?" Shangguan Biyue rolled her eyes. I didn't see any flames; how did you burn them? She expressed disbelief, but it also made Shangguan Biyue feel more and more that Xiao Tianyu was mysterious.
This was a man she couldn't see through.
Xiao Tianyu changed the subject: "You rest for a while, I'll go make dinner!"
"Mhm!" Shangguan Biyue nodded.
Half an hour later, a variety of sumptuous dishes were laid out on the table. Although the dishes were ordinary, they were visually appealing and aromatic, causing Shangguan Biyue's stomach to growl uncontrollably.
Xiao Tianyu, wearing an apron, came into the living room and said to Shangguan Biyue, "Dinner's ready!"
"Coming!" Shangguan Biyue nodded, taking Xiao Tianyu's arm as she walked gracefully, smiling, "Tianyu, I think being the administrative director for Biyue International is really a waste of your talent!"
"What do you mean!"
"You should be a chef!"
"In the world, besides you, no one else can taste my cooking!" Xiao Tianyu said casually. Shangguan Biyue pouted, "Call you fat, and you start to puff, don't you?"
Shangguan Biyue seemed not to have her mood affected by the recent events at all.
"Believe it or not, it's up to you!" Xiao Tianyu responded indifferently.
Shangguan Biyue naturally didn't believe it and continued, "Hasn't your mom or dad ever eaten your cooking? By the way, you never talked about your family!"
"If you don't want to eat, you can throw it away!" Suddenly, Xiao Tianyu's expression turned cold, startling Shangguan Biyue a bit. Why is this guy suddenly like this...
Could it be?
Thus, Shangguan Biyue consoled, "Tianyu, I didn't mean it. I didn't know your family is no longer around. I promise in the future—"
"They are all alive and well!" Xiao Tianyu interrupted.
Baffled.
Shangguan Biyue felt a bit confused, but seeing Xiao Tianyu's cold face, she didn't ask further, but increasingly felt that Xiao Tianyu was a man with stories behind him.
His family was still in the world, yet it was forbidden to mention them; this was a big story already.
Soon they reached the dining room. Xiao Tianyu pulled out a chair in a gentlemanly manner, "Have a seat!"
"Mhm!" Shangguan Biyue nodded, picked up her chopsticks, and began to eat, without mentioning Xiao Tianyu's past anymore.
