Chapter 468 “A Woman with a Dark Enough Heart and a Thick Enough Face (p1)“
Ling Yue’s planned this from the start. She wanted to make the man lose his guard before trying a sneak attack, and sure enough, it worked!
“Wu Chong, you lost, let’s see how you will keep mocking me after this.” Gleeful in her voice, the girl starts jumping up and down like a playful child.
“Was that the Soul Reaping Chain that you just used?” Wu Chong wasn’t surprised at all over the girl’s sudden sneak attack, he’s quite aware of her usual tactics. What did catch him off guard though was the fact that the girl could use a technique that originally came from him. What’s more, she even improvised and split the chain into nine parts like how she did with the needles she used to use often.
“You didn"t expect it right? I refined Zhan Gang’s Soul Reaping Chain and made it my own,” she proudly c.o.c.ks her head high like the man and starts gloating, “A bet is a bet, you promised me a martial technique if I win. Now hurry and hand it over.” Spreading forward her hands, Ling Yue awaits in antic.i.p.ation for the expected item.
“What do you want to learn then?” Wu Chong was starting to regret bandaging up the girl into a dumpling now – he really wants to see the sort of face she would make right now.
“The one you used last time, that very powerful swordsmans.h.i.+p at the Tai Yi School.” She didn’t even need to think and blurted this out.
One of his favorite part about Ye Ling Yue was her dark hearted nature and the fact that she could be extraordinarily thick-skinned to the point of being shameless.
Take the first encounter they had for example: she would dare steal his Red Yang Ginseng. To be clear, those who steal from the Ghost Emperor only has one outcome in their fate, and that was death!
“Even if I can’t learn it I can still sell it. The money alone would mean I never have to work again.” Grinning right up to her eyes, Ling Yue’s aura was sparkling with greed.
“It’s the same if you become my woman so why not consider that instead?”
“Pehhh, who is going to be your woman. If a man can be relied upon then even a pig can climb the tree.” Jerking to attention, Ling Yue’s ear was suspiciously red in light of what she’s saying.
Apparently the three days of intimate interaction did have an effect of changing her negative view of this man to a certain degree. Not like she’s willing to admit that though.
Within the underground cities, nothing could escape Wu Chong’s awareness, only things he didn’t want to know.
“Wu Chong, don’t get stingy with me. You are the Ghost Emperor, how can you teach me something that I used my own money to buy? I’m sure the Underground Palace would have plenty more to choose from!” Exploding like a skittish cat, Ling Yue won’t have it.
Making an extremely dangerous snort, the man refutes her demand, “Stupid woman, you dare compare a martial art that I have personally tweaked with the garbage in the exchange office. Are you learning or not?”
Tweaked?
Ling Yue’s face immediately went from gloom to all sunny after hearing it.
