Chapter 135: The Center of the Vortex

…

“What?” Little Divine Sword Dongfang Lan never expected that his own aunt would say such shameless words to him and do such a thing.

In that instant, Dongfang Lan was so frightened that he took a step back, his face flustered and pale.

“What are you afraid of?” Madame Zhen swayed her figure and arrived in front of him like a ghost. She grabbed his hand, pulled him into her embrace, and said with a charming and tender look in her eyes: “Do you think my figure is not good? Is my skin not white enough?”

Dongfang Lan had been obsessed with cultivation and swordsmanship since he was young and had never seen such a situation before. He felt both ashamed and annoyed. However, his wrist’s vital point had been pinched by Madame Zhen at some unknown time. Fighting Qi invaded his body and sealed his meridians. As he struggled, his limbs felt weak, and his Fighting Qi could not circulate smoothly.

“Dongfang Si, we are relatives, connected by blood. You, you, how could you do such a thing to me? How could you be so shameless?” Dongfang Lan scolded her in a mix of shame and anger.

“Relatives? Haha, connected by blood, hehe. I almost forgot to tell you.” Madame Zhen’s sexy and seductive lips gently touched his ear, and she whispered like an orchid: “Your dead, heartless father loved my body the most. As his son, haven’t you inherited your father’s blood? If I am shameless, then what do you call your father?”

For a moment, Dongfang Lan was struck as if by lightning and froze on the spot, murmuring in a low voice: “No, impossible, this is absolutely impossible. My father, my father couldn’t have.”

“Haha, impossible, how could it be impossible?” Madame Zhen laughed wildly again: “If it weren’t for him, how would I have ended up in this state today? His blood is cold, and his heart is made of iron. He knows I hate him, but he dares not come. Instead, he sent you. What is this called? A father’s debt is paid by his son. Lan’er, you look just like your father when he was young, simply carved from the same mold.”

“Madame Zhen, we don’t want the warhorses anymore. I want to leave.” Dongfang Lan was shocked and terrified. He considered himself an expert, but his aunt’s Fighting Qi cultivation was simply unfathomable. This was impossible, truly impossible.

“Leave? Hehe, Lan’er, don’t you like your aunt’s body?” The more terrified and afraid Madame Zhen saw him, the more excited she became: “At the start, your aunt was very excited. Seeing you is like seeing my brother. You look just as heroic and extraordinary as him, with exceptional bearing. Your father let you come just to compensate me. He knew I would definitely do something to you. You were sold by your father, and you don’t even know it? Just like me, I was also sold by your father, and I didn’t know either. Until a long, long time later, I realized that he never truly loved me. The one he loved was only Zhu Xiyu.”

“Dongfang Si, you are crazy.”

“Yes, I am crazy, and it’s all your father’s fault. He kept coaxing me, deceiving me. He told me that as long as I helped him ascend to the position of Clan Head, he would disregard everyone in the world’s opposition and marry me. But the result? He used me and gave me to someone else, to that weak and incompetent Zhen Wanjie. Hahaha~ Lan’er, brother…”

Just as Dongfang Lan was terrified to the extreme, suffering repeated mental shocks that shattered his young heart, and Madame Zhen was holding him to head toward the couch.

An old butler outside rushed in with hurried steps and a panicked look on his face: “Ma, Madame, big, big trouble.”

Although the old butler saw the scene before him, he pretended not to see it and knelt on the ground, trembling and shouting loudly.

“Presumptuous!” Madame Zhen was just about to tear open Dongfang Lan’s clothes and straddle him. She never expected that someone would dare to interrupt. In an instant, her lust turned into rage, and she slapped out: “What matter cannot wait until later to be discussed?”

The old butler was clearly not weak in Fighting Qi cultivation, but he dared not fight back. He took the hit hard and was sent flying. However, he still struggled to get up and said: “Madame, it cannot wait, it cannot wait. Young Master, Young Master has been taken hostage.”

“What?” Madame Zhen was truly shocked this time. All her lust disappeared in an instant. She raised her phoenix eyebrows and said with boundless rage: “Who, who ate the guts of a bear and a leopard? Dare to take my precious Mu’er hostage? Someone, kill him for me, chop him into hundreds of pieces and feed him to the dogs.”

“Madame, you cannot kill him, you cannot.” The old butler coughed up blood and said with a panicked face: “The Young Master is still being held hostage by him. He said if anyone dares to make the slightest move, he, he will cut, cut off the Young Master’s head.”

“Good, what audacity.” Madame Zhen was so angry that her sexy and seductive body trembled continuously: “I will personally go meet him and see which deity he is? As long as I save Mu’er, I will make him regret coming into this world as a human.”

…

Lei Qing had already drunk two pots of wine and was half-full from the delicious food. He sat there lazily drinking tea. He was very clear that this matter would definitely alarm that Poisonous Widow, Madame Zhen. The intelligence indicated that although the Poisonous Widow was extremely ruthless to others, she doted on her son and daughter. Especially this second-generation wastrel Zhen Jimu, she doted on him so much that she was afraid he would fall if she held him in her palm, or melt if she held him in her mouth.

With such a thing happening, someone would definitely go to notify her. He just needed to wait here. No one else could handle this matter except her.

In fact, deep down, Lei Qing was unwilling to deal with that rumored Poisonous Widow, Madame Zhen. Such a woman with a heart like a snake or scorpion made him shudder and get goosebumps just thinking about her.

But in this world, there are many things that will not stop coming to you just because you don’t want them to, nor will everything go according to your wishes. Just like this Zhen Jimu, originally he came to befriend and please him to help resolve his grievances.

But unexpectedly, the aftereffects of kidnapping Li Baobao kicked in. This Zhen Jimu actually wanted to stand up for Li Baobao’s fiancé and deal with him.

Truly, worldly affairs are hard to predict.

See, Lei Qing was drinking tea and waiting for the Poisonous Widow, Madame Zhen. But before Madame Zhen arrived, an unexpected person came out first.

“Who, who ate the guts of a bear and a leopard, dares to take my Big Brother hostage?” A pretty girl of about twenty in a green dress, leading a dozen or so fully armed female soldiers, pushed through the crowd and charged in aggressively. As soon as she entered, she started shouting. She had the bold and willful spirit typical of girls from the Northern Frontier.

What surprised Lei Qing was not this girl in the green dress, but the tall, outstandingly beautiful girl in a pale yellow dress behind her.

That girl stared straight at Lei Qing, who was drinking tea, her eyes going blank, staring foolishly at him, her body stiff and at a loss.

“Li Baobao?” Lei Qing also stared at her with a surprised face: “You, why are you here?”

“Baobao? You know this villain?” The girl in the green dress hurriedly grabbed Li Baobao’s hand and asked.

Li Baobao also suddenly sobered up, covered her mouth, and usually said with uncertainty: “Lei, Lei Qing. You, why are you here?”

“Lei Qing?” After hearing this name, the girl in the green dress was immediately stunned, and then she became annoyed and angry: “Okay, so you are that infamous bandit Lei Qing who dared to kidnap Baobao. I haven’t settled the score with you yet, and you, you, dare to come and kidnap my Big Brother?”

Saying that, the girl in the green dress prepared to rush over aggressively to save him. Gongsun Xu, who was confronting Lei Qing, hurriedly blocked her and said in a deep voice: “Miss, do not go over there. This man is fierce and powerful.” The implication was that she should not go over there and give the enemy another bargaining chip.

Li Baobao was also deeply afraid that her best friend would get into a conflict with Lei Qing. She knew Lei Qing’s character clearly. Whoever dared to provoke him, he wouldn’t even fear the King of Heaven. He even dared to offend the Ice Sword Saint, Fairy Leng, face to face. What wouldn’t he do?

She hurriedly grabbed the girl in the green dress and persuaded: “Huan’er, don’t be impulsive, don’t go over there.”

“Baobao, am I supposed to just watch my Big Brother get held hostage by this thief?” Zhen Huan’er stomped her foot in exasperation and said: “No matter how useless, how wastrel, shameless, bastard, or disgusting my Big Brother is, he is still my Big Brother.”

At this moment, Zhen Jimu, who was tied to the table with his mouth gagged, really wanted to burst into tears. Sister, speaking of Big Brother like this in front of so many people, Big Brother is truly touched.

Li Baobao was also speechless for a while, but she knew exactly what kind of person Zhen Jimu was.

“Kid, listen to me. If you know what’s good for you, let my Big Brother go quickly.” Zhen Huan’er was so angry that her pretty face turned pale. She pointed at Lei Qing from a distance and said: “I can still leave you a way to live and let you roll out of Northern Yan City. Otherwise, otherwise I will…”

Li Baobao had also been kidnapped because she threatened Lei Qing, so she had suffered a loss. She hurriedly covered her best friend’s mouth. She turned her head to Lei Qing and said: “Lei Qing, what is going on here? Are you short of money again? If you need money, tell me. How could you run off to kidnap Zhen Jimu? His mother is, is not easy to talk to.”

“Baobao.” Zhen Huan’er broke free and said angrily: “Who are you helping? How can you side with an outsider? What do you mean ask me for money? Are you addicted to being kidnapped by him? I think this mad thief should be hacked to death with random knives.”

Lei Qing was speechless and really couldn’t be bothered to talk to her. He pulled out the cloth strip from Zhen Jimu’s mouth.

“Smack!”

He directly slapped him in the face.

The hit made half of his face instantly red.

For a moment, the surroundings were silent.

Zhen Jimu was also a smart guy. With his life on the line, he also knew why Lei Qing hit him. Immediately, after letting out a wail, he shouted: “Big Brother Lei, you hit me right, you hit me wonderfully. My sister is just too arrogant and domineering. It’s my fault as a brother for not teaching her well. Later, I will definitely educate her properly.”
