Chapter 759: Sweeping Victory (2)
Xiu vanished into thin air within an instant.
It was like Xiu was never there.
But the dead body of Ruan Yingzhe lying in the pool of blood was proof that the G.o.d-like man did exist.
Shen Duan felt cold throughout his body. His blood had almost frozen as he looked at the deceased Ruan Yingzhe.
He was vicious and malicious, but he feared the strong.
He could not understand where Shen Yanxiao found this G.o.dly helper. Within a second, the dream he was so close to achieving shattered in front of him.
Xiu left, but he did not take the fear he created in Shen Duan with him.
Shen Yue fell on the ground, turning ghastly pale. At the moment, he regretted his choice. Why did he decide to side with Shen Duan?
Great Swordsman of the second-cla.s.s promotion? Powerful?
No, Ruan Yingzhe was a joke! That mysterious man Shen Yanxiao had brought with her choked a Great Swordsman to death in a blink of an eye. The kill was clean and simple.
This fear he had would not be so deep-rooted if that man had exchanged some moves with Ruan Yingzhe.
The most terrifying part of the whole incident was that that man did not use any skills to achieve that feat. He just waved his hand, tightened his grip, and he broke the neck of that Great Swordsman.
Since not even Ruan Yingzhe could withstand a single blow, then Shen Yue and Shen Duan…
Shen Yue dared not to continue this thought!
“A Great Swordsman of the second cla.s.s promotion is just this much.” Shen Yanxiao looked at Ruan Yingzhe’s cold, dead body with a cold grin. When she turned her eyes to Shen Duan, the killing intent in her eyes became even more apparent.
“Shen Duan, the pillar you relied on so heavily crumpled like nothing. What do you think of that?”
Shen Duan gulped in fear, his mind in a blank. All the conspiracy he had planned and deceit he had caused became a laughing stock in front of absolute power.
That being said…
Shen Duan cherished his life!
“Shen Yanxiao, don’t get too c.o.c.ky. That man has killed Ruan Yingzhe; the Broken Star Palace will never forgive you for this! Do you think one man is enough to protect you against the might of the Broken Star Palace? You are so ignorant! He can protect you today, but he cannot protect you for the rest of your life! Even if he can protect you, do you think the Vermilion Bird Family will be out of harm’s way?! You short-sighted brat! How are you going to deal with the fury of the Broken Star Palace? Come, tell me!” Shen Duan cast the most vicious gaze at Shen Yanxiao. If it were not for her, his son would have already been appointed as the next Family Head of Vermilion Bird Family!
If it was not for her, he wouldn’t have to kill his blood brothers to accomplish his goals!
If it was not for her, he would have had complete control over the Vermilion Bird Family!
Why?
Why!
Why did this mentally-r.e.t.a.r.ded girl become a prodigy? Why did she deserve to be so talented? Why was that mysterious man sent to her!
“You are nothing but a b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Do you honestly believe you can defy the laws of nature! You are a loser that has no place in this world!” Shen Duan screamed. He could not accept this. This was not fair!
Shen Yanxiao sneered at Shen Duan, who was descending into craziness, and clenched her fists.
“Have you done barking? Don’t worry, I will not ask Xiu to kill you. Your life is mine. I will finish you with my own hands. I do not want your blood to dirty the hands of anyone else!”
“You!” Shen Duan laughed. In his mind, he believed she was no longer in a position of power anymore. The mysterious man, the only person that he was afraid of was gone. How stupid was Shen Yanxiao. Did she really think that he would roll over like a dead dog without Ruan Yingzhe’s help? Why did she let that mysterious man leave? That was so dumb of her!
“Shen Yanxiao, you will pay for your stupidity today. Things would be different if you asked that mysterious man to kill me. What makes you think that you can kill me by yourself? Let’s see if you can accomplish that today!”
