Zhao Yao smiled and said, “She won’t ever know.”
He was always prudent, so he would never let her know about Ziyan.
If it were not because Ziyan had begged him for a long time, he would not have brought her along.
“Aren’t you afraid that we will tell her?” Qing Shan squinted.
Zhao Yao laughed louder. “I will tell her in advance that because you guys failed to get the three-striped tiger from me, you guys are trying to drive a wedge between us. She will believe in me and never believe in you guys, anyway.”
He knew well that he owed all of his achievements to his wife.
Besides, his father-in-law was still alive and had only retreated to a quiet place to cultivate. So, he had pa.s.sed the Talon’s Gate to Zhao Yao.
Therefore, although he was already the Talon’s Gate Master, or had even reached Advanced Dark Warrior tier, he would not simply take a new concubine. Or else, the tigress at home would fight the concubine to death.
Everything was fine as his father-in-law did not breakthrough to another tier after all these years. However, if he advanced into another tier and returned from his cultivation, then Zhao Yao would be doomed!
Therefore, even if he liked Ziyan, he must still prioritize his wife!
“Hmph!” Qing Shan’s face was pale. “Today, I must get the three-striped tiger! n.o.body will get it from me!”
“Well, you may try!”
As soon as Zhao Yao finished speaking, he squinted, and suddenly, a violent gust of wind struck at Qing Shan.
Dang!
Two swords collided in the air as a ma.s.sive force exploded. The trees surrounding them were uprooted row by row in the pattern of the force’s ripple effect from the impact.
A Green Gate’s member had received Qing Shan’s command and stepped forward immediately. The long sword in the member’s hand was pointed at Ziyan who was standing not far away.
There was no way for Ziyan to fight against the people from the reclusive world, she could only helplessly watch the opponent’s long sword coming toward her, aimed at her eyes.
Zhao Yao really liked Ziyan, too. Just as he was about to save her from the Green Gate’s member trying to attack Ziyan, a figure suddenly came from not far away and stood in front of Ziyan…
Swoos.h.!.+
The long sword slashed the youth’s shoulder as blood continuously oozed out and stained his s.h.i.+rt red.
He s.h.i.+vered, almost collapsing.
“Why is it you?” Ziyan’s voice was sharp. “Why are you here?”
Zhao Yao had already stopped fighting and was in front of Ziyan. He frowned a little and glanced at Qing Yuan, fiercely. “You know this person?”
Ziyan clenched her fists tightly as her eyes were filled with hatred and resentment.
“Qing Yuan, don’t you ever think that I would appreciate and accept you for saving my life. You’re such a disgusting person. How dare you follow me! I have Master to protect me, and I don’t need you!”
She hated him!
She hated him of not standing up for her when they were facing Feng Ruqing!
She resented him too!
She resented him for obeying Feng Ruqing’s command in taking the poison.
If he had not taken the poison, he would still be an Advanced Dark Warrior. They would still live a carefree life even if they were not a member of Fengyun Manor.
It was Qing Yuan who had forced her to submit to an old man!
She would never appreciate him again, no matter how hard he tried to save her. All she felt for him were hatred and resentment!
“Master.” Ziyan gently laid her weak and boneless body on Zhao Yao’s body, and said softly, “I’ve nothing to do with him. He was pursuing me, but I have declined him. I never expected him to tail after me… Master, I’ve dedicated my whole life and my love to you, even if he had saved me, I still belong to Master.”
Zhao Yao finally smiled and touched Ziyan’s b.u.t.tocks.
