"What's so surprising about that?"
Xiao Yang listened blankly to Gu Xiyan's justified words, feeling utterly perplexed about the state of the world. How could it be?!
Such several beautiful women, not fighting or arguing at all, willing to follow the same man, and even seeming to get along so harmoniously!
Xiao Yang came back to his senses, and the look in his eyes towards Mu Jinyu was filled with envy!
Mu Jinyu shrugged his shoulders, feeling somewhat helpless.
If Xiao Yang knew that Gu Xiyan and the likes were his wives and he still had three more, he wondered if Xiao Yang would spit blood from anger…
However, he was not the type to show off women, and that's why he wouldn't tell Xiao Yang about his three other wives.
"Xiao Yang, what are you dilly-dallying here for?"
At this moment, a fairly attractive woman walked over and said impatiently, "My parents are calling you over."
Approaching closer, the woman saw Gu Xiyan and the others, her expression changing slightly several times, her eyes flitting with a touch of jealousy and inferiority. Then she twisted Xiao Yang's ear and scolded:
"Good for you, Xiao Yang, trying to flirt with other women while I'm not paying attention? If you have the guts, just divorce me; don't eat our Liu family's food on one hand and disgust me on the other!"
Xiao Yang's ear was twisted in pain, and he cried out with a grimace: "No, Qingqing, I was just telling them they are ordinary tourists and advising them to hurry down the mountain…"
"Ouch ouch ouch, Qingqing, let go…"
While Xiao Yang explained to Liu Qingqing, begging her to stop, he was still dragged back to his in-laws by the ear.
"You just stay here honestly and protect my parents. If any danger arises, you better sacrifice your life to shield them and save them at all costs, got it?!"
"I got it…"
Mu Jinyu and Gu Xiyan watched from afar as Liu Qingqing twisted Xiao Yang's ear and led him away, overhearing their conversation and exchanging glances with each other.
"That's one seriously henpecked husband."
Mu Jinyu murmured to himself.
Gu Xiyan and Wen Rou frowned as well, finding Liu Qingqing a bit excessive. What did she mean by 'sacrifice your life'? Was her husband's life so worthless?
Mu Jinyu snapped out of it and looked at Gu Xiyan and the others, feeling delighted inside, thinking that his wives were indeed wonderful, never saying anything about him risking his life to save his in-laws.
Damn it, wasn't his life a life too?
And the key issue was, with so many wives, deciding which father-in-law to save would be a big problem!
Mu Jinyu looked at Xiao Yang with sympathy, then averted his gaze and didn't look any further.
After all, it was someone else's family matter, and their own decision. They were mere strangers, and he had no place to stand up for Xiao Yang.
Besides, what if Xiao Yang actually enjoyed it? If he intervened, he might end up being mocked by Xiao Yang, which would be utterly repulsive.
"Hey, big sister, come over here to brother, it's very dangerous there. That sissy next to you definitely won't be able to protect you when the time comes, but brother can."
At this time, a rough voice suddenly erupted nearby.
Mu Jinyu, hearing the noise, turned his head and saw a scruffy-looking man with a beard, grinning oddly as he ogled at Gu Xiyan and the others.
Hmm?
Was that guy the one who just spoke?
And the 'sissy' he mentioned, could he be referring to himself?
The thought flashed through Mu Jinyu's mind, and he felt both annoyed and amused; this was the first time he had been called a sissy!
"Scram!"
Mei Yinxue saw the undisguised desire in the bearded man's eyes and had no intention of being polite. She coldly spat out a single word.
"Huh? Little wench, really too arrogant, do you actually think I'm someone easy to provoke?!"
The bearded man looked at Mei Yinxue as she disdainfully told him to scram, and his expression changed before he finally burst into an annoyed and embarrassed curse.
As he spoke, he reached out towards Mei Yinxue's snow-white arm, attempting to grab it!
At the same time, he said, "I am a Master of Energy Transformation, do you really think you're a warrior from the God Realm? Ridiculous!"
The bearded man's action and curse naturally caught the attention of some nearby people.
They had already noticed Gu Xiyan and her companions, who were all exceptionally beautiful, and had kept them in mind, planning to see if they should kidnap them after dealing with Tai Sui.
But they hadn't expected the bearded man to act so quickly and impatiently.
"Old Wang is really impatient this time, but then again, their beauty is indeed striking; I can barely hold myself back!"
"There are quite a few warriors from the God Realm here; we Masters of Energy Transformation may not be able to win Tai Sui, we're basically just onlookers. Maybe… we should also let loose like Old Wang?"
"..."
Mei Yinxue saw the bearded man reaching for her arm, and her pretty face turned ice-cold, brimming with a murderous intent.
Then, overhearing several similarly sleazy-looking men appraising her and Gu Xiyan, the killing intent in her eyes grew even stronger.
"Hmph!"
Without any hesitation, Mei Yinxue let out a cold snort and reached into her pocket, pulling out a dagger. She infused it with True Yuan and slashed directly toward the bearded man's arm, which was as thick as that of an orangutan!
"Slash!"
A barely audible sound rose, and the bearded man's entire arm suddenly fell from his shoulder.
Because the dagger was so sharp and the cut so swift, not a single drop of blood came out at first. It took a full three seconds before blood gushed out profusely!
The bearded man hadn't even realized that his arm was gone, and he hadn't felt the pain yet; his face turned deathly pale, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he stared at Mei Yinxue in shock, his eyes filled with terror!
To be able to sever the arm of a Master of Energy Transformation so easily, this woman must be a warrior from the God Realm!
They weren't joking just now!
My God, such a young warrior from the God Realm?!
While he was internally panicking, Mei Yinxue was about to finish him off with her dagger when Mu Jinyu stopped her.
"Why won't you let me kill him?" Mei Yinxue frowned, expressing her dissatisfaction.
Mu Jinyu replied indifferently, "Let me do it. He insulted me and spoke foul words towards you; if I don't take action, what kind of man am I!"
His tone was light, yet filled with endless killing intent!
Saying this, Mu Jinyu then reached out towards the bearded man's neck!
At this moment, the bearded man came back to his senses; his heart thumping wildly, he immediately thought of running away!
But then…
He discovered that his legs wouldn't obey his commands, unable to take a step to leave Jade Emperor Peak!!
"Crack!"
As the bearded man was frantically trying to lift his legs, Mu Jinyu's hand had already reached his neck and squeezed his throat, making a breaking sound!
The bearded man didn't even know what happened and just dropped dead.
Mu Jinyu grabbed his neck and, without looking at him, tossed him off Jade Emperor Peak like a rag doll.
Afterward, he looked up at those who had spewed vulgarities and thought to act along with the bearded man when he offended Mei Yinxue, before saying to the three ladies:
"Well, these few, I'll leave them for you to handle."
Upon hearing Mu Jinyu's words, the several men, whose complexions had already changed due to the bearded man's inexplicable and tragic death, were almost scared out of their wits!
