My Husband Is Not Someone You Can Humiliate!

Chapter 39: My Husband Isn't Someone You Can Insult!

Qi Yuan led Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying across several streets, enthusiastically explaining the main features of each street as they passed.

"This is the most prosperous commercial street in Nanli Capital City. Here, as long as you have money, you can buy anything."

"This street is also a commercial street. Although it's not as lively as the previous one, the goods are more affordable and the prices are lower."

"And this place, called Tianbao Street, sells Spiritual Artifacts and Magic Treasures, spirit herbs and elixirs, and some Monster Materials."

"If you're lucky, you might even find some Monster Pets occasionally!"

Because Luo Ruying possessed formidable cultivation, Qi Yuan specifically brought Luo Ruying and the others to tour Tianbao Street.

Within Nanli Capital City, there wasn't a cultivator who didn't know about Tianbao Street.

The street was filled with a dazzling array of all sorts of strange low-grade magic tools, but among them, quite a few were damaged or fake.

Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying merely glanced at them and lost all interest.

Calling these items trash would be praising them...

"Oh my, who do I see? It's the eldest daughter of the Qi Family~"

Just as Qi Yuan was leading Ning Yechen along the street, several figures approached from the front, blocking their path.

The man at the forefront was dressed in fine silks and adorned with various accessories and magical artifacts, looking every bit like a nouveau riche, with a condescending and arrogant expression.

Behind him followed dozens of retainers, creating quite a spectacle.

The stall owners around them all changed color upon seeing the man, hastily moving out of his way.

Wherever the man went, anything in his path or under his feet was directly kicked aside or trampled over by him, his demeanor utterly arrogant.

Yet, the surrounding people only dared to be angry but not speak.

Even many cultivators with extraordinary cultivation dared not say anything.

This was because the man before them was the eldest son of the Jiang Family, one of the two major merchant guilds in Nanli Capital City, Jiang Li!

The Jiang Family currently controlled nearly sixty percent of the commercial streets in Nanli Capital City, and countless cultivators sought to curry favor with them.

The Jiang Family had also hired many cultivators as guards to serve them, and it was rumored that there were even several experts at the Heavenly Spirit Realm or above!

It was said that their backing forces were unfathomable and unimaginably powerful.

No one in the entire Nanli Capital City dared to provoke the Jiang Family!

Jiang Li had noticed Qi Yuan's figure from afar. Seeing her appear on the street, his expression flickered with surprise and shock.

She had actually returned?!

Although it was somewhat unexpected, Jiang Li still gave a condescending smile, putting on a cheerful face as he walked up to Qi Yuan.

Upon seeing Jiang Li arrive, Qi Yuan's pretty face darkened, her expression turned cold, and she spoke directly without any reservation:

"Hmph, are you disappointed to see I've returned!"

"No~ Not disappointed at all."

"Rather, this makes things more interesting."

Jiang Li didn't hide anything either, boldly and indirectly admitting that the assassination was the Jiang Family's doing, acting as if there was nothing she could do about it.

Qi Yuan had initially thought Jiang Li would at least feign ignorance, but she never expected him to admit it so openly!

How arrogant!

Qi Yuan was so angry that she clenched her fists, wanting to make a move, but seeing the dozens of guards behind Jiang Li, she could only grit her teeth and reluctantly give up.

Jiang Li was certain that Qi Yuan couldn't do anything to him, and his expression became even more arrogant. He leaned close to her face and chuckled sinisterly, whispering:

"Soon, the Qi Family will disappear from Nanli Capital City~"

"Miss Qi, you should hurry and think about how to make a living from now on~"

"Huayue Tower is currently recruiting. I can introduce Miss Qi."

"I believe with Miss Qi's reputation, you'll surely become Huayue Tower's top courtesan~"

"You...!"

Qi Yuan's face turned pale with anger, and her hand rested on the hilt of the long sword at her waist.

The dozens of guards behind Jiang Li also immediately and uniformly gripped their swords.

"Miss Qi, making a move within the city is against the law and regulations~"

Jiang Li raised his hand, signaling his men to sheath their weapons, and looked at Qi Yuan with a playful expression, not taking her seriously at all.

After careful consideration, Qi Yuan finally released her hand, abandoning the thought of drawing her sword.

With her strength, she couldn't even defeat one of the guards behind Jiang Li, let alone kill him...

"That's more like it~"

Jiang Li smiled triumphantly, his gaze then shifting to Luo Ruying, who was holding Luo Hongye behind Qi Yuan.

As he walked over, he had already noticed Luo Ruying's peerlessly beautiful and captivating face.

A closer look only made him marvel even more:

"This woman is truly a national beauty!"

Jiang Li ignored Ning Yechen, who stood beside Luo Ruying, and walked directly in front of her. He put on a polite smile and asked:

"This young lady looks unfamiliar. I don't recall seeing you in Nanli?"

"May I know your name?"

"I am Jiang Li, son of the Jiang family in this Nanli Capital City."

"I am not talented, but I possess considerable wealth and status in Nanli Capital City. If I am honored, I would like to get to know you, young lady~"

Ning Yechen stood to the side, his brow furrowed.

He was barely suppressing the urge to slap Jiang Li to death!

Damn it!

He was trying to poach his woman right in front of him!

If it weren't for Luo Ruying being beside him, and his concern about her noticing, he would have already annihilated Jiang Li's soul!

"Scram!"

Luo Ruying coldly told Jiang Li, showing no politeness.

From the first glance, she had found this arrogant, lecherous, and spoiled young master extremely repulsive.

Jiang Li's complexion was sickly and weak, with dark circles under his eyes. His gaze was filled with lust, and it was unknown how many women had fallen victim to him!

If she hadn't wanted to live a quiet life in Nanli Capital City with her husband and children, and avoid unnecessary trouble, she would have almost been unable to resist killing him!

Being directly rebuffed by Luo Ruying in public, Jiang Li was stunned at first, then let out a disdainful chuckle.

He wasn't angry at all.

He had encountered women like Luo Ruying, who had arrogant auras, and even more fierce women.

However, those women, just like her, were new to Nanli Capital City and didn't know his methods or the power of the Jiang family.

After experiencing his methods, hadn't those women all obediently ended up in his bed, at his mercy!

Qi Yuan, standing beside them, saw Jiang Li lecherously hitting on Luo Ruying and knew this guy definitely had ill intentions. She immediately stepped in front of Luo Ruying and yelled at Jiang Li:

"Jiang Li! You dare try anything with Sister Luo!"

"Sister Luo already has a husband and children, so don't be delusional!"

"Get lost!"

"Husband and children...?"

Jiang Li's gaze fell upon Luo Hongye in Luo Ruying's arms, then he turned to look at Ning Yechen beside them, his expression still full of disdain.

"This pretty boy?"

Ning Yechen: "..."

Control yourself...

Control yourself...!

The hand Ning Yechen had clasped behind his back was already itching to swat this damned fly to death!

It had been a long time since even the Celestial Emperor dared to speak to him like this!

Luo Ruying's delicate brows furrowed, her pretty face turned cold. Holding Luo Hongye, she stepped in front of Ning Yechen and said in a cold voice:

"You are not allowed to insult my husband!"

With that, Luo Ruying unleashed a powerful aura that swept towards Jiang Li and his entourage!
