Xu Jie's voice was very calm, and his expression was very indifferent, but what he said was extremely overbearing and arrogant!

"God Slaying" was spoken as if it were effortless!

It was as if, in Xu Jie's mouth, the Outer Regions' divine beings that had troubled Xia Country for years were nothing more than pigs and sheep ready for slaughter.

At this moment, Chu Mingyue felt as if she was seeing the young man before her anew, his ruthlessness tinged with a desire to pity all living beings.

Similarly, Chu Mingyue's heart pounded wildly at this moment. She stared intently at the slightly weakened Xu Jie, a strange light growing ever brighter in her beautiful eyes.

"Chu Mingyue, you'd best stay away from me from now on, or else..."

"Or else what?"

Chu Mingyue was a bit angry upon hearing this. She already had a very extreme personality.

With a rebellious impulse, she stood up, walked directly in front of Xu Jie, let out a cold snort, and sat down beside him.

At the same time, Chu Mingyue reached out her jade-like hand, proactively hugged Xu Jie's arm, and stared at him stubbornly.

"..."

Xu Jie frowned, realizing something was amiss. His previous words seemed to have triggered a hidden attribute in Chu Mingyue.

Especially after his combat power had soared to the point where he could kill a Martial Artist at the Pulse-Opening Peak Stage, Chu Mingyue showed signs of no longer suppressing her feelings.

"You..."

"Xu Jie, are you afraid of me?"

"..."

Xu Jie felt his arm sink into an incredibly soft mass of cotton, and he immediately struggled to maintain his composure.

"Xu Jie, I'm sticking with you! You can't escape!"

Seeing Xu Jie's strange expression, Chu Mingyue finally made up her mind. Her pretty face flushed slightly as she spoke her true feelings, which had been buried in her heart, to Xu Jie.

"Alas!"

Xu Jie couldn't help but sigh. He knew he probably couldn't get rid of Chu Mingyue.

To be precise, back in the village, when faced with the mercenary group's malice, Chu Mingyue had shown a conflicted expression, wanting to compromise with Qin Lie for his sake. That moment had already proven that Xu Jie wasn't entirely devoid of feelings for Chu Mingyue.

Last night, when he brutally slaughtered those mercenaries, was it purely to avenge the little loli's family and seek justice, or was it because those mercenaries were coveting Chu Mingyue?

Who knew?

A hint of relief spread across Xu Jie's lips as he smiled.

Since things had come to this, why dwell on it so much!

Xu Jie had always been someone who faced his inner self directly, without being overly hesitant.

He believed that only those who could acknowledge their inner emotions could live life to the fullest!

People were sometimes so contradictory!

Xu Jie was clearly a cold, ruthless, and brutal desperado, living day by day, yet he had unhesitatingly slaughtered the mercenary group and the Guard Army for the sake of a little loli's family, who had nothing to do with him.

If he had chosen to turn a blind eye, he could have avoided offending the military and escaped the assassination attempts by the Guard Army.

What relationship did that family have with him?

He didn't even know them!

But he still felt angry, still believed that the mercenary group deserved to die, and still felt that Zhao Du, who had caused the beast tide, deserved to die!

Therefore, he chose to act!

He had even developed the absurd thought of breaking the rules of this world!

Furthermore, after arriving in this world, Xu Jie clearly didn't want to get involved with any women. Yet, in the end, without realizing it, he had developed feelings for Chu Mingyue, who had always been helping and caring for him.

When Chu Mingyue was initially teased by the mercenary group, he had involuntarily become extremely angry!

And when the mercenary group coveted Chu Mingyue by his side, his rage had completely erupted!

It was as if Chu Mingyue had become his exclusive possession, only he hadn't realized it himself.

Thus, he had massacred those mercenaries in an extremely cruel and cathartic manner, which showed how furious he must have been at the time.

Finally, Xu Jie, who initially only wanted to rely on the system to continuously become stronger, selfishly cultivating martial arts without regard for the lives of others, had ultimately become entangled in the karmic grudges of martial arts families like the Xu family and the Jiang family.

Especially after hearing with his own ears that his cheap father had died from the torment inflicted by the Xu family, his killing intent towards the Xu family reached its peak!

It was also because the little black snake was a treasure left to him by his father that he chose to accept this demon he had obtained by chance.

Therefore, he made up his mind to avenge his father. Everyone involved in his father's death, no matter who they were.

He would make them pay a heavy price, even if that person was backed by the divine beings of Xia Country!

Recalling the experiences and scenes that had occurred over the past few days, Xu Jie realized that he had truly changed, and the changes were significant and rapid!

If he had changed, so be it!

People always change due to their environment!

Could the person I am today think the same as the person I was last year?

Xu Jie didn't dwell on meaningless matters.

He turned his head to glance at Chu Mingyue, whose beautiful eyes were full of anticipation and a hint of nervousness. He chuckled and said, "Alright, Chu Mingyue, you win!"

"!!!"

Xu Jie accepted?

It was that easy?

Chu Mingyue had thought it would be very difficult, requiring her to beg and humble herself.

She hadn't expected that Xu Jie, who had always refused her before, would so readily agree to accept now.

What a strange man!

Xu Jie decided to return to Jincheng City with Chu Mingyue, as the main culprit was still at large!

On the way, Chu Mingyue kept holding Xu Jie's arm, looking hesitant and as if she had something to say.

"What do you want to ask?"

"Xu Jie, why are we going back?"

"To kill someone!"

"Who?"

"Guard Officer Zhao Du!"

"..."

Chu Mingyue's grip on Xu Jie's arm tightened instantly, causing Xu Jie to gasp. The plant roots in his mouth fell out on the spot.

"Xu Jie, killing a Guard Officer is a serious crime. We can wait for an opportunity..."

"I don't want to wait!"

Xu Jie looked at Chu Mingyue beside him and said with a smile.

"If he doesn't die, I can't sleep!"

"But..."

"Chu Mingyue, you just need to stay put on the city wall and wait for me to come back, understand?"

Xu Jie's words were incredibly domineering and forceful, carrying a hint of command.

Chu Mingyue was stunned for a moment, then, as if possessed, she nodded and softly said obediently, "Okay... I'll wait for you to come back!"

Seeing Chu Mingyue being so obedient, Xu Jie's throat bobbed.

He looked at Chu Mingyue's full, sexy lips, couldn't help but pinch her chin, and lowered his head to ask domineeringly.

"Mmm..."

At first, Chu Mingyue, whose first kiss had just been stolen, was flustered and patted Xu Jie's chest in discomfort.

Gradually, Chu Mingyue stopped resisting. Instead, she wrapped her arms around Xu Jie's neck, stood on her tiptoes, and cooperated with him.

During this time, Xu Jie's large hands naturally became unrestrained and more aggressive, caressing Chu Mingyue's astonishingly alluring figure.

This woman... is truly heaven-defying!

Like a small branch bearing large fruit?
