It's the beauty that brings disaster. I'm also desperate.

Instead, they have been using each other as tools...

There is only one fundamental reason.

——Not beautiful!

Of course, what she calls "not beautiful" is different from the general concept.

Because she often faces her own stunning beauty, over time, her requirements for appearance have become higher. For Xia Li, an above-average beauty like Hua Jiu is not beautiful!

She even dislikes Hua Jiu...

Just ask.

How could she bear Ning Yun's face being disfigured by the fierce fire?

She endured such humiliation and married him just for her own martial arts ambitions.

At the beginning, Ning Ze was the lord of a city, and the Ning family had many powerful masters. If she wanted the peerless elixir, she had to abide by the rules and barter with the other party.

But......

It’s different now!

——If I had known Sister Hua was so capable, I would never have married Shengsheng.

——Why don't we just take it away? We've done this kind of thing a lot. After taking it away, we don't have to live under someone else's roof and have to look at someone else's face. Isn't that great? Hahaha!

Thinking of this.

Xia Li was so excited and happy~.

There was a gleam in his eyes, even though they were obscured by the strange fog, they were still sparkling and watery, as if a star had fallen into the bottom of a lake, still unable to conceal its brilliance.

Yes, this world actually pays attention to surnames, given names, courtesy names, and pseudonyms.

Xia Li's name is "Chang Sheng".

Hua Jiu usually likes to call her Shengsheng. She got used to it after hearing it so many times and often calls herself that.

"Ah?!"

Just as she was thinking about how to instruct Sister Hua to snatch the peerless elixir from Ning Jun and give it to herself without anyone knowing, Xia Li suddenly felt a sharp gaze falling on her. She turned her head and found that Ning Jun was staring at her.

Through the gap in the green bamboo mask, she could only see the pair of eyes that were still as cold as ever.

And the sharp sight I just felt seemed like an illusion...

——Why do I suddenly feel a little scared when she looks at me like this?

Xia Li thought to himself.

Could it be that I was about to do something bad and therefore felt guilty?

But Xia Li suddenly found it ridiculous. If she was the kind of person who would feel guilty after doing bad things, the Xia family's assets would have been taken away by other families over the years, and there was no way they could have survived in Renwang City.

"Master Xun!"

"Oh my god, Master Xun actually lost!"

"Too strong..."

There were exclamations.

Xun Jia was defeated, and everyone in the Ning family felt a chill in their hearts. They were afraid that they would have to watch the other party take away Xia Li, whom they had married with three matchmakers and six engagements.

This is no longer just a slap in the face, it's a knife in the face!

After this incident, the Ning family will never be able to raise their heads in Xizhou again...

But actually.

It was helpless that no one could resist. The woman surnamed Hua was invincible. Even Xun Jia was defeated. Who else could resist? Even Ning Ze could only grit his teeth and stare at the other party, but he was powerless to stand up and stop her, let alone others.

The main hall of Ning Mansion was silent for a while...

Hua Jiu let out a sigh of relief. Fighting with Xun Jia was also a great burden for her, but she felt relieved when she thought that she could stop Sheng Sheng from getting married and take her back with her.

That little burden is nothing at all.

She walked towards the other person. Her steps seemed slow but were actually very fast. In three breaths, she was already in front of Xia Li.

The woman couldn't hide her joy when she saw the girl. She wanted to put down her airs and sneer at the girl. After all, she was so resolute last time... But as soon as she got closer, the ice on her face melted.

"Shengsheng, follow me..."

The woman's expression and tone were as gentle as spring rain, and there was no trace of the tyranny that she had just shown.

She stretched out her hand, wanting to hold tightly the treasure in her heart.

But at this moment, a red shadow flashed by, and someone grabbed her hand that was reaching out to Xia Li.

boom--!

The moment this scene appeared, everyone was shocked.

I could hardly believe what I was seeing and hearing!

Chapter 6: Weak, pitiful and helpless

--So fast!

Hua Jiu was shocked.

The red shadow was Ning Yun's sleeve, which caught her wrist in a flash. Although the opponent's attack was sudden, she could easily avoid it if it wasn't so fast.

——This Ning guy is probably not a simple person...

She soon realized this.

At the same time, Hua Jiu frowned deeply. Except for Xia Li, she didn't like to have physical contact with anyone, no matter if the other person was a man or a woman!

What's more, Ning Jun wants to marry Xia Li, so it's not an exaggeration to say that they are enemies.

As her mind was flowing, Hua Jiu secretly moved the Qi and blood in her body, and a strange force vibrated from her right wrist. It was somewhat similar to the shaking of a wild beast, only more urgent and faster...

This is her unique martial arts method, even if she is stabbed by a steel knife or an iron spear.

This shock.

It can also sweep away everything and be invulnerable to swords and guns.

However, even such a powerful defensive martial art was unable to shake off Ning Jun's hand.

——What a great force!

Hua Jiu secretly cried out in his heart...

In fact, she already took the other party seriously, otherwise she wouldn't have used martial arts just now. But she never expected that even one or two jolts wouldn't work... The other party's hand was pressed on her wrist, as heavy as a mountain.

"Aren't you going to take Miss Ning's wife away? Why is Hua not moving? What exactly does she want to do?"

"It's not that she doesn't want to move, it's that she can't move. You'll understand if you come to my position."

"Oh my god! She has controlled Hua..."

The movements of Hua Jiu and Ning Jun stretching and pressing were not big, and many people present did not see it because of the angle. They were also wondering why the invincible woman in black suddenly stopped trying to snatch the bride.

Finally I changed my position and could see it clearly.

"Didn't they say that the fire that year caused Miss Ning's meridians to be broken and her face to be disfigured? How can this... this woman look like a woman with broken meridians and no strength at all?"

"Hiss! Could it be that the Ning family deliberately released false information in order to protect her?"

"It's possible. A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. Back then, Miss Ning was so talented that she was accepted as a disciple by that person. The Ning family is not without enemies."

"A genius, truly a peerless genius, at such a young age, he is actually..."

One warrior can restrain another warrior.

Regardless of how long the restraint lasts, it is enough to show that the gap between the two is actually not that big.

Hua Jiu is one step ahead of the elderly Xun Jia and has already reached the third realm of martial arts. This indirectly proves that Miss Ning, who has always been considered a useless person, has also reached this level!

The two girls in the Ning family are only three years apart in age. The younger girls Ning Xun and Xia Li are both fifteen years old.

Therefore.

All in all, Ning Jun is only eighteen years old this year.

He had reached the third realm of martial arts at the age of eighteen, which made everyone present, especially those martial artists who had only reached the first or second realm in their forties or fifties, feel ashamed. They felt that they had been practicing martial arts for nothing all their lives!

——Turtle.

——I didn’t expect that the man named Ning also had a trick up his sleeve. No wonder Xia Ye mentioned in his letter that there was something fishy about the rumors back then.

Not only did Ning Jun not have his martial arts destroyed by the murderous fire when he was twelve years old, but during the six years when the rumors spread, he quietly grew into a powerful warrior who could stand on his own!

As everyone knows, the Ning family's strongest man, City Lord Ning, only broke through to the third realm more than two months ago...

Think so.

Ning Yun is much faster than her father.

"call--."

Xia Li breathed a sigh of relief, and at this moment she praised herself for being cautious.

When Hua Jiu showed her invincible posture just now, she wanted to order the other party to force the Ning family to hand over the peerless elixir, but Xia Li, who always adhered to the principle of caution, finally decided to play it safe first.

really.

No one knows what kind of unexpected events will occur until the last moment.

He glanced at the two women who were in a stalemate. They were staring at each other. Although there was no obvious expression on their faces, they seemed very calm. But Xia Li could clearly feel a terrifying momentum of tit-for-tat accumulating and expanding rapidly around him, making the air oppressive...

——Oh no, I have to stay away from them!

As the saying goes, when the city catches fire, the fish in the pond suffer. As a weak, pitiful, helpless and innocent passerby, she should not stay near such a horrific confrontation.

If you are not careful, you can easily get hurt by mistake... Oops! Damn it!

Xia Li almost cursed.

Just when she was about to move away.

Hua Jiu snorted coldly, clenched his other free hand into a fist, and punched Ning Yun fiercely. This punch was accompanied by the sound of wind and thunder, and even ordinary people who were not familiar with martial arts could feel its ferocity.

Faced with such an attack, Ning Jun reacted quickly.

In a flash, Xia Li couldn't see clearly how she made the move, he only felt her red sleeves flash... The next moment, a loud "bang" was heard, the sound was deafening.

I don’t know what method Ning Jun used, but he actually pulled Hua Jiu’s fist to the side and downward.

The whistling wind and thunder's punch hit the ground directly.

Because of the wedding, the main hall was covered with soft mats, but underneath the soft mats were all solid stones... Hua Jiu smashed them to pieces with one punch, and the cracks spread like a spider web, almost reaching the door.

Such a huge impact caused rock chips to explode.

Some of them almost hit Xia Li, which scared her...

To know.

Compared to the sickly Ning Yun who pretended that her meridians were broken, she was the real weak woman who was powerless! If she was hit by that kind of stone chips, she would definitely be injured.

"Hua Jiu! Are you going to hit her or me?!"

"not me......"

Xia Li got angry and Hua Jiu was frightened and turned pale.

But the punch just now was indeed guided by Ning Jun. At that moment, she had a feeling that the other party did it on purpose but also used some means to control the explosion trajectory of the stone chips.

It feels like...it feels like it's meant to scare Xia Li.

——Why did she do that?

This question suddenly popped up in his mind, but it was not appropriate to think about it too deeply at the moment, so Hua Jiu quickly shook off the distracting thoughts.

"Bastard thing!"

"You actually want to hurt Shengsheng!"

Regardless of whether the other party did it intentionally or unintentionally, the move just now was very dangerous, and Hua Jiu herself was also very scared. She would not allow Xia Li to be hurt no matter what, as long as she thought of the other party's painful look after being injured.

She was so uncomfortable that she couldn't breathe...

——Master, I’m sorry.
