"Sigh!"
Looking at Viscount Zhu Lanting's corpse, Shen Lang grinned.
Just looking at his appearance made him look like he was in agony.
His entire body was contorted, and his 1.8-meter-tall figure had curled up into a ball.
"Senior Sword Monarch, fate really makes fools of people in this world. Sometimes, man proposes, God disposes." Shen Lang said, "I was thinking of killing this person when I was free, but I didn't expect him to die so mysteriously."
Li Qianqiu didn't know how to reply.
He had originally thought that the Xuan Wu Mansion was in trouble and that it couldn't be avoided.
Now that he thought about it, perhaps he had worried too much.
Following that, Shen Lang began to move the corpse on the ground.
He wanted to create the illusion that the Lanshan Viscount Residence and the Autumn Wind Brothel had fought to the death.
"You won't be able to fool others like this," Li Qianqiu said.
Shen Lang said, "This is a huge case without a clue. You have to give someone an explanation. Having a fake answer is better than having no answer at all. Otherwise, the local officials will be put in a difficult position. "
It was like finding out that you couldn't answer a single question during an exam. Even if you scribbled, you had to fill up the exam paper.
If you didn't scribble a single word, you would be looking down on education and authority.
Following that, Shen Lang boarded the carriage, and Li Qianqiu turned into a weather-beaten coachman as they continued their journey north.
"Senior, all the previous Sword Monarchs had daughters. You …" Shen Lang hesitated for a moment before speaking.
Li Qianqiu said, "I had children, but … I couldn't keep them."
"I'm sorry," Shen Lang said. He was also feeling terrible.
Li Qianqiu said, "After 20 years of pain, I can bear it now."
Because of this topic, the two of them remained silent for more than two hours.
They passed by a lake.
Only after seeing this beautiful scenery did they feel more cheerful.
Shen Lang asked in a light tone, "Senior Sword Monarch, is the Pirate Demoness Qiu Yao 'er beautiful?"
Li Qianqiu hesitated for a moment before saying, "I don't know how to say it."
She shouldn't be beautiful, right? Otherwise, she wouldn't like women.
Shen Lang: "I heard that she likes women. Is that true?"
Li Qianqiu hesitated for a moment before saying, "I … still don't know what to say."
The Sword King really wasn't good at making irresponsible remarks.
However, Shen Lang was a gossipy person.
Therefore, along the way, Shen Lang spoke more and more, while the Sword King spoke less and less.
In the end, the Sword King could only meditate while driving the carriage.
Sigh!
No wonder I wanted Tang Yan to be my disciple. It's because he doesn't like to talk.
… …
Xue Yanran, no, Xue Li, the legitimate daughter of Wuan Count House, walked into Xuan Wu Mansion.
Usually, the women of these century-old aristocratic families would become more and more beautiful because their genes were constantly being optimized.
Of course, there are also some who are as ugly as the princess of our neighboring island country, but they are in the minority.
Naturally, Xue Li was also very beautiful.
Moreover, it was the kind of arrogant beauty that was filled with a sense of superiority, a beauty that was high and mighty.
To put it bluntly, she was so beautiful that it was annoying.
Xue Li looked at Xuan Wu Mansion with a natural sense of superiority.
It was true that the river flows east for a hundred years, and then west for a hundred years.
Back then, when the Xue family was attacked by pirates, they were almost wiped out. Almost all the members of the family were killed.
If it weren't for Jinzhou Count's rescue, the Xue family would have been wiped out.
Back then, the only child of the Xue family, Xue Fan, became Jinzhou Count's disciple and became a grandmaster at the age of forty.
Since then, the Xue family had been divided into two forces.
Wuan Count House and the South Sea Sword Sect.
The Xue family was really afraid of being killed. They felt that they could only feel safe if they had high-level martial arts.
More than a hundred years had passed. Wuan Count House and the South Sea Sword Sect had become giants.
The entire Xue family was full of talents.
On the other hand, Xuan Wu Mansion had already lost many talents. It was actually the turn of a lowly son-in-law to stir up trouble.
How pitiful and sad!
The battle for Jinshan Island was won by the Kim family.
But the victory was even worse than the defeat.
Could that little son-in-law change the fate of the Kim family's destruction?
Of course not!
So how could Xue Li suppress the superiority in her heart?
My Xue family was like the sun in the sky, while your Kim family was on the verge of extinction.
The reason why Wuan Count House and the South Sea Sword Sect had what they had today was entirely due to the kindness of Jinzhou Count.
So was Xue Li grateful to Jinzhou Count?
Of course she was grateful!
But there was another saying, 'great kindness becomes enmity'.
How do you expect anyone to repay such a great favor? There was no way to repay it!
My Xue family had been drawing a clear line with you until now. It was already very noble and self-restrained.
On the contrary, your Kim family had no self-awareness. The marriage between the two families had been delayed for so many years. Didn't you see our intention? Did you still need us to make it clear?
Wasn't it better to leave some face?
Why did you have to shed all pretense of cordiality?
… …
Jin Zhuo Count's family of four all came to welcome Xue Li.
"Dear niece, what brings you here?" Jin Zhuo Count asked.
Xue Li said, "I'm here to break off the engagement!"
What?
So direct?
Nalan Yanran knew how to be more tactful.
Jin Zhuo Count's expression suddenly changed.
At least on the surface, nobles had to be courteous to each other.
If your Xue family wanted to break off the engagement? You had to do a lot of preparatory work.
For example, my Xue family's daughter, Xue Li, was seriously ill and was afraid of delaying your son, so she had no choice but to break off the engagement.
And Xue Li indeed had to pretend to be sick for at least a year.
Or my daughter, Xue Li, was addicted to Buddhism and had already decided to be a Buddhist and never marry, so she reluctantly broke off the engagement.
Then, Xue Li really had to study Buddhism for a year and a half.
In the future, when she wanted to marry, she could just say that she found that she had no fate with Buddhism, so she returned to secular life.
Even as a cruel official, Zhang Chong knew that if he didn't break off the engagement, he would only lose his wife.
Your Xue family was so fierce, directly breaking off the engagement in public. You were offending people to death.
Xue Li said, "My parents were worried about my marriage every day. They wanted to break off the engagement but couldn't find a reason, so it dragged on year after year. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I directly came to break off the engagement."
You really have a personality.
It was good to have a personality, but to build it on trampling on other people's dignity?
That was disgusting.
"I specially came from the capital for this matter. My parents still don't know." Xue Li said, "In order to not lose too much face for both families, I asked Xuanwu to take the initiative to break off the engagement with my family. That way, both families would be happy."
Xuanwu trembled all over, his face ashen.
On the other hand, Su Peipei was very calm, but her nails almost pierced her palms.
Jin Mucong's face was red and his eyes were bloodshot. This was an unprecedented humiliation for him.
Xue Li glanced at Jin Mucong.
You're just a useless pig, and you want to take me as your wife? Dream on. You're a toad lusting after swan meat.
I, Xue Li, am the adopted daughter of Imperial Concubine Zhong. Moreover, I am a talented noble daughter of a wealthy family.
Moreover, I already have a sweetheart. My Imperial Concubine Zhong is many times more handsome and outstanding than you. Not only is he the son of a marquis, but he is also a martial scholar. Any strand of his hair is more noble than Jin Mucong.
Zhong Clan.
They were the second oldest noble family in the State of Yue, second in the military, and a true warlord.
The Western Garrison Army that the State of Yue sent against the State of Chu was almost entirely from the Western Garrison Governor's Office. The Western Garrison Governor's Office was almost equivalent to the Western Garrison Marquis's Office.
With such a powerful family, the flames of the Monarch's new policies couldn't burn them at all.
Imperial Concubine Zhong came from the Western Garrison Marquis's Office, and she was also the Third Prince's mother.
It was precisely because of the Zhong Clan's support that the Third Prince had the confidence to oppose the Crown Prince.
And because Xue Li had grown up with Zhong Shishi and was adopted by Imperial Concubine Zhong, she was used to the Zhong Clan's prestige and was naturally arrogant.
Feeling this intense humiliation, Kaneki Satoshi took a long time before he was able to speak with great difficulty.
"Xue Li, I hope you remember something," Jin Mucong said word by word.
Xue Li glanced at the ground and said, "What is it?"
"Life is full of ups and downs. Don't bully the young for being poor!" Jin Mucong gritted his teeth and said, "My … my brother-in-law won't let you off."
Then, the fat otaku burst into tears and immediately turned to run.
What a coward!
Xue Li looked at the fat otaku's running back and felt even more disdain in her heart.
"I've conveyed the message. Goodbye! I still have to rush back to the capital! "
Then, she immediately left.
Mulan was also trembling with anger. This was the second time she had seen such an uneducated noblewoman.
The first was Zhong Shishi, the legitimate daughter of the Zhong Clan.
Back then, she had injured Mulan's chest almost as soon as they met.
Although the wound had already healed, not long ago, her Husband had discovered that the tendons and veins in the area where she had been hit were slightly damaged and clotted.
Xue Li had followed Zhong Shishi for many years and had learned all of her arrogant and domineering habits.
Unfortunately, Xuanwu couldn't lower himself to the level of such a rude and arrogant woman.
It was a pity that Husband wasn't here. If not, he would definitely be able to teach this arrogant Xue Li a lesson.
Husband doted on this brother-in-law the most.
He could bully Jin Mucong, and it was fine for his family to bully the fat otaku.
But he couldn't be bullied.
… … …
At the pier of Raging Tide City.
In this world, there were only wrong names, not wrong nicknames.
This was not a lie at all.
Chou Yao 'er had many nicknames: She-Devil, Goddess of Slaughter, Pirate Queen.
But the most popular one was Xue Luosha.
Xu Qianqian had been in Raging Tide City for a few days and had heard so many rumors about Chou Yao 'er that calluses were forming in his ears.
But he still hadn't seen her.
Because Chou Yao 'er had gone out to fight again.
As long as she heard that there was a raid on the sea, she would definitely lead her fleet there.
Then, she would definitely win every battle.
All the warships would be captured, and all the captured pirates would be killed in a two-on-one battle.
Half would be taken in as subordinates, and the other half would be killed.
And this two-on-one battle was completely random.
That was the real scary part, alright?
Thus, everyone's attitude towards Chou Yao 'er was polarized.
The merchants were grateful to her, but also in awe. If not for her ruthlessly exterminating the pirates, the sea trade wouldn't be so prosperous.
And the pirates hated her to the bone.
Come on, Miss, you're a pirate too.
Your father is the Pirate King, but he just gave himself the title of Raging Tide City Lord. Do you really think of yourself as a soldier?
But it was useless to hate her to the bone.
This Xue Luosha's martial arts were too high, and the pirates under her were too ferocious.
Most importantly, in every battle, this Chou Yao 'er would always take the lead, charging onto the enemy's ship and killing them.
She wielded her twin blades.
When you hear about twin blades, don't you think they're very light and agile?
No!
They were twin blades, each 1.6 meters long, taller than some men.
Each blade weighed close to a hundred kilograms.
Normal people would find it hard to swing such heavy blades, but these two blades were as light and agile as a willow leaf in her hands.
The pair of blades danced wildly.
Instantly, she was unstoppable. No matter how skilled the pirates were, they would be killed in one move.
Under her blades, there was never a complete corpse.
The number of pirates that died under her blades numbered at least three thousand, if not five thousand.
Every time she walked onto the streets of Raging Tide City, there would be no one within ten meters of her.
Her killing intent was too strong!
Even from ten meters away, she would be unable to breathe.
The first time Xu Qianqian saw her, Chou Yao 'er was standing on the deck, leading her army back in triumph.
Beneath her feet, there were hundreds of human heads.
This scene really gave Xu Qianqian an unparalleled impact.
The first thing she felt was not fear, but admiration!
Undefeatable general!
These four words surfaced in her mind instinctively.
Jin Mulan was very powerful, even her ex-fiancé was very powerful.
Of course, it was Zhang Jin.
Not her ex-fiancé, Shen Lang. He was a piece of trash that couldn't even beat her, Xu Qianqian.
Zhang Jin was a Martial Scholar. Once on the battlefield, he would be a fierce general.
But compared to Chou Yao 'er, the difference was obvious.
This Qiu Yao'er, just by looking at her, enemies would probably piss their pants in fear.
Her killing intent was too strong.
No wonder Sword King Li Qianqiu had such a high evaluation of her.
She was a woman, not even thirty years old. In a few years, she would be on the same level as a Grandmaster.
That was simply heaven-defying.
In that case, was this invincible and valiant general that kind of iron-blooded female warrior?
Was it the kind that was eight feet tall and had a waist circumference of eight feet?
No, not at all!
Xu Qianqian had never seen a woman's figure that could be so explosive.
That kind of curvaceous body could not be described with words.
It was filled with an absolute sense of beauty and strength.
She wasn't a muscular woman, but a slender and smooth body.
Jin Mulan's figure was the best that Xu Qianqian had ever seen. It was also the one that she was most jealous of.
Of course, it was still the case.
But this Chou Yao 'er's figure was even more powerful than Jin Mulan's. Her curves were even more astonishing.
But …
She was too tall!
She was half a head taller than Shen Lang.
In terms of Earth's measurement, she was almost 1.9 meters tall.
She was about the same height as Ye Li and Zhao Ruirui.
No wonder no man dared to like her.
Because even if she was curled up, she wouldn't be able to reach her.
Then what did her face look like?
In Xu Qianqian's eyes, she was extremely beautiful, super beautiful.
In Shen Lang's eyes, she was so beautiful that she could explode.
In modern Earth, she would definitely be the type that could kill all the cover girls.
Her skin was as smooth as satin, without a single flaw.
At least, Xu Qianqian felt that Chou Yao 'er's skin was better than hers. It was full of elasticity and health.
But in this world, the aesthetic standards of men could not accept a woman like Chou Yao 'er.
It was bad enough that she was too tall, but it was better when she was lying down. For a woman, the taller the better.
More importantly, her short hair was too lethal.
All the women in this world had long hair, and of course, the men had long hair too.
You're a woman, but you have short hair.
Then there was the color of your skin. Because she spent most of her time at sea, Chou Yao 'er's skin was the color of wheat.
In modern Earth, this was the most sexy skin color.
But in this world, whiteness was beauty, and whiteness covered all ugliness.
In modern Earth.
This Chou Yao 'er was definitely the type that could kill all the supermodels.
If Shen Lang saw her, he would definitely drool and gasp. What an exceptional beauty.
From a woman's perspective, Xu Qianqian felt that this Chou Yao 'er's appearance was not inferior to Jin Mulan's.
And Jin Mulan was the most beautiful woman she had ever seen.
But in the eyes of the men in this world, Chou Yao 'er was a terrifying blood demon.
Xu Qianqian didn't even need to think to know that once the scumbag Shen Lang saw Chou Yao 'er, he would definitely say something.
I'm screwed!
Now that she finally saw Chou Yao 'er, she was completely different from what she had imagined, and even more impactful.
Xu Qianqian couldn't help but think of a difficult problem.
Next, how should she sneak to Chou Yao 'er's side?
How could she become the most indispensable person to her?
… …
Zhang Chunhua also finally saw this Chou Yao 'er.
The first thing she felt was … jealousy!
There was actually such a woman in this world, so beautiful and so domineering.
It had to be said that a woman's sense of beauty was different from a man's.
In this world, most men's sense of beauty could not catch up to Chou Yao 'er's looks and figure.
But Zhang Chunhua and Xu Qianqian could already accept this kind of beauty. They were even jealous, and even … a little attracted and worshipped her.
Zhang Chunhua even felt that Shen Lang should be a woman, and this Chou Yao 'er should be a man.
No, that wasn't right either.
Chou Yao 'er was already very feminine, filled with an incomparable femininity.
It was just that this kind of femininity was not something most men in this world could appreciate.
At the same time, Zhang Chunhua was also full of confidence in the goal of this trip.
This Chou Yao 'er killed so many people, so domineering. She was definitely an ambitious person.
As a tactician, the most terrifying thing was for someone to not have ambition.
How could that bewitch them?
Once you had ambition, there would be room for these tacticians to play.
Thus, Zhang Chunhua directly went to Chou Yao 'er's castle and asked to see her.
It was clearly written on the card that she was the daughter of Nujiang Governor Zhang Chong.
… …
Half an hour later!
Zhang Chunhua saw this Blood Rakshasa Chou Yao 'er.
Then, she was once again shocked by her aura.
Chou Yao 'er had just taken a bath and was wearing a white silk nightgown.
This nightgown would definitely be loose on other women.
But on Chou Yao 'er, some parts of it looked like it was about to burst open. It was absolutely shocking.
Zhang Chunhua used to be very proud of her figure and very confident.
But now, she instinctively looked down at her chest and felt a little inferior.
This Blood Rakshasa's aura was too oppressive.
Not just killing intent, but also her aura as a woman. It was too oppressive.
But I'm not competing with you in terms of figure, I just want to convince you.
Wisdom is my forte.
As Zhang Chong's daughter, she had inherited her father's strategy and wisdom.
Facing this Chou Yao 'er's shocking aura, Zhang Chunhua was even more confident.
"Miss Chou Yao 'er, do you want to defeat your brother Chou Xiao?
"Do you want to become the new Nu Tiao City Lord?
"I can help you. With my help, you can become the Nu Tiao City Lord within half a year!
"Within two years, you can become the Nu Tiao City Lord.
"Within three years, I can help you unify the Eastern Sea.
"Within five years, I can help you become a Marquis as a woman!"
As a tactician, the most important thing was to get straight to the point and not stop until they were shocked.
First suppress the other party and say what they wanted the most, then it would be easier to talk.
After saying that.
Zhang Chunhua elegantly sat down, waiting for Blood Rakshasa Chou Yao 'er's reaction.
"I don't want to, send the guest away!"
Chou Yao 'er said directly.
And then …
Zhang Chunhua was sent out by two female warriors.
Not out of the room, but out of the castle.
Zhang Chunhua looked at the closed door in a daze.
After a long while.
She muttered to herself: "What … What's going on?"
… … …
An hour later, Xu Qianqian appeared in front of Blood Rakshasa Chou Yao 'er.
If you want to be beautiful, you have to be filial.
She was dressed in white mourning clothes, looking especially delicate and beautiful, delicate and pitiful.
Qianqian's eyes were filled with tears as she knelt down towards Chou Yao 'er.
There was no need to mention how charming and moving she was.
Her voice was pitiful and charming as she cried: "I am Xu Guangyun's daughter. Shenlang destroyed my family business and my fiancé Zhang Jin killed my entire family. I am a weak girl and have nowhere to go. I am in a desperate situation, please save me General Chou! "
"When I saw the general, my spirit was filled with yearning and my body and mind fell."
"From today onwards, I am willing to make your bed for you and offer myself as your pillow!"
"I hope the general will take pity on me!"
… …
