Chapter 473: Chapter 0473: Won’t Cry Until Seeing the Coffin
At that moment, the alluring and enchanting aura of Dongfang Shu vanished entirely, replaced by a sharp aggressiveness, like a lion that had been sleeping but suddenly awakened by a fright, instinctively ready to launch an attack!
Feeling the change in Dongfang Shu, Ye Xunhuan felt a slight surprise in his heart, but then he quickly came to terms with it.
How could a widow, hailed as the most beautiful and provocative in the entire Central Sea Province and whom no one dares to mess with, be so simple?
Moreover, being able to marry a big boss and then seize all his assets while completely taking control, if she had no real skills, let alone wielding power, she would probably have been devoured head to toe a long time ago.
The next moment, Dongfang Shu made her move, her arm as delicate as lotus root, slashing out towards Ye Xunhuan!
Her arm, like a whip, not only scattered the air in front of it as it struck out but also emitted a sizzling noise, as if carrying an electric charge!
A look of surprise slowly emerged on Ye Xunhuan’s face again!
Projecting inner strength, this woman had at least touched the threshold of the Innate Realm; otherwise, she couldn’t have achieved this.
But just with this strength, did she intend to be discourteous to him?
Just as Dongfang Shu’s whip-like arm was about to strike, Ye Xunhuan casually threw Meng Qi out of his hand as if discarding trash.
"Bang!"
Meng Qi’s body heavily slammed against the wall, the immense impact causing him to tremble violently as he hit the ground.
Meanwhile, as Dongfang Shu’s whip-hand attacked, Ye Xunhuan didn’t attempt to block it hard; he slightly misstepped and dodged it directly.
After missing the first strike, Dongfang Shu was not discouraged at all and immediately switched from a hand-slash to chopping down towards Ye Xunhuan.
"Swoosh!"
The hand-chop missed again, and Dongfang Shu swiftly changed from chopping to thrusting fiercely towards Ye Xunhuan.
With this thrust, Dongfang Shu gathered full momentum, tremendously powerful; Ye Xunhuan could even clearly see that the moment she switched from chopping to thrusting, a surge seemed to rise from her abdomen and was expelled from her tempting red lips, accompanying the hand-thrust as it attacked.
In superior martial arts, there is a saying that a punch is thrown from the mouth, which means that when punching, a breath is drawn up from the abdomen and released with the punch, regulating the muscles and organs of the whole body and unleashing astonishing power in an instant.
This maxim of replacing a punch with a hand or turning a chop into a thrust could also be fully applied here.
Confronted with Dongfang Shu’s vigorous thrust, Ye Xunhuan was not at all flustered; instead, he sidestepped again and reached out to flick lightly at Dongfang Shu’s elbow!
"Snap!"
A crisp sound was emitted, and Dongfang Shu’s arm trembled violently, as if electrified, and immediately a numbing sensation traveled all over her body.
Ye Xunhuan’s light flick seemed simple but was extremely nuanced; he targeted not just any spot but specifically the nerve on the elbow, which explained why Dongfang Shu felt that way.
This discovery caused Dongfang Shu’s complexion to change.
The next moment, without waiting for Dongfang Shu to strike again, Ye Xunhuan moved his feet in a Nine Palace pattern, spun around, and instantly appeared behind Dongfang Shu, his right hand directly locking onto her throat.
"Decent strength, but sorry, it’s still too weak for me!"
Dongfang Shu’s face turned pale drastically, he... he had actually grabbed her throat like this?
At that moment, Dongfang Shu felt as if she had plunged into an icy abyss, her whole body overwhelmed by a chilling sensation.
Upon seeing this scene, Meng Qi immediately roared, "Let go of the lady!"
"What can you do if I don’t let you go?" Ye Xunhuan said arrogantly, "Killing you is as easy as stepping on an ant!"
"You..."
"What, do you want to try?"
"Meng Qi, get out!" Dongfang Shu took a deep breath and shouted at Meng Qi.
"Miss..." n𝚘𝚟pub.𝚌o𝚖
"Get out!" Dongfang Shu said coldly, "Do not come in without my order!"
"But..."
"He doesn’t want to kill me, if he did, he wouldn’t talk so much, let alone let you go!" Dongfang Shu said emphatically. "Moreover, with his strength, killing both of us wouldn’t be difficult, even if we worked together!"
Ye Xunhuan kissed Dongfang Shu’s face somewhat appreciatively. "Very smart!"
Seeing Ye Xunhuan’s frivolous action, a flash of anger crossed Meng Qi’s face.
The next moment, Ye Xunhuan slowly let go of Dongfang Shu.
Although Dongfang Shu said that Ye Xunhuan wouldn’t kill them, her heart had been in her throat at that moment, and she was actually very afraid, so much so that when Ye Xunhuan let her go, she couldn’t help but let out a long breath, feeling as if she had walked a circle in hell, breaking out in a cold sweat.
She looked visibly shaken.
"Why haven’t you left yet?"
Meng Qi bit his teeth and finally left the teahouse.
After Meng Qi left, Ye Xunhuan sat down and poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip and said, "No wonder so many people are taken with you, yet no one dares make a move."
"Aren’t you daring enough?" Dongfang Shu smiled sweetly at Ye Xunhuan, sat directly next to him, took his arm and cuddled against him, looking every bit the clinging damsel.
It was as if she had completely forgotten the terrifying moment before.
Seeing Dongfang Shu daring to treat him this way, Ye Xunhuan showed a surprised expression: "Do you think I was joking with you earlier, not daring to do anything to you?"
"What do you think?" Dongfang Shu breathed warmly towards Ye Xunhuan.
At that moment, Dongfang Shu, not fearing Ye Xunhuan laying a hand on her, clung tightly to him, her seductive, peach blossom eyes fluttering ceaselessly as if sending electric shocks.
"You are too presumptuous!"
Saying this, Ye Xunhuan suddenly pulled Dongfang Shu, making her collapse into his arms, looked at her exquisite face, and said, "I’m really not a vegetarian!"
Saying this, Ye Xunhuan immediately started to make his moves on Dongfang Shu again.
"You..."
"Don’t you know your own charm?" Ye Xunhuan looked at Dongfang Shu with lustful eyes, "Don’t you know what kind of attraction you have for men?"
"You... don’t do this..." Dongfang Shu’s face showed panic again, "I really realize my mistake now..."
"You are the type who won’t shed tears until you see the coffin!" Ye Xunhuan said with a wicked smile on his face.
