This Man Was Sinister and Vicious-He Could Not Be Allowed to Live (Please Follow for More)

Kou Ruozhi rose to his feet, bowing and scraping with an ingratiating smile on his face. "The current Heavenly Mother of the Tianmu Cult is sixteen years old, her beauty unmatched beneath the heavens. She is a peerless beauty, and she and Young Master Xu are truly a match made in heaven.

"Young Master Xu is the Great Sage Heavenly Duke, the husband of the Most Holy Heavenly Mother. Naturally, the Tianmu Cult belongs to Young Master Xu as well. There is no difference."

Xu Yan looked astonished. "The Tianmu Cult has a Heavenly Mother too? Is she very beautiful?"

Kou Ruozhi was overjoyed when he saw this. Xu Yan's divine might is unmatched, and he's handsome as well. The Heavenly Mother should be delighted too. With her beauty, how could Xu Yan not be moved?

"Yes, the current Heavenly Mother is sixteen years old, her beauty unmatched beneath the heavens, as beautiful as a celestial maiden. Young Master Xu, as long as you become the Great Sage Heavenly Duke, you can marry the Heavenly Mother.

"I'm not exaggerating. I, Kou Ruozhi, have traveled throughout Qi and Wu, and I have never seen anyone as beautiful as the Heavenly Mother."

Kou Ruozhi hurriedly began speaking.

He kept praising the current Heavenly Mother's beauty as peerless, intending to lure Xu Yan into joining the Tianmu Cult with her beauty.

"Is there truly such an extraordinarily beautiful woman?"

Xu Yan immediately became interested.

"I have absolutely no intention of deceiving Young Master Xu. The Heavenly Mother's beauty is beyond the power of words to describe. There are countless men beneath the heavens, but in my opinion, only Young Master Xu is worthy of her.

"Heavenly Duke and Heavenly Mother—would they not be a perfect match?

"Young Master Xu, join our cult and become our Great Sage Heavenly Duke. Together, we'll rebel and pull that old Qi Emperor down from his throne!"

Seeing that success was within reach, Kou Ruozhi continued to tempt him.

"There is actually such a beauty in this world?"

Xu Yan grew curious about the current Heavenly Mother of the Tianmu Cult.

Something was wrong!

He suddenly became alert. This man keeps describing the Heavenly Mother's beauty to me. He must be trying to seduce me with her beauty. Once I join the Tianmu Cult, become the Great Sage Heavenly Duke, and lose myself in the current Heavenly Mother's charms...

Would that not ruin my martial cultivation? Would I not spend my days and nights in pleasure, lose all interest in martial arts, and become hopelessly addicted to beauty?

Over time, excessive indulgence would drain my Vital Energy, wither my appearance, waste away my body, and sever my path in martial arts.

And if that Heavenly Mother possesses some method of harvesting yang to nourish yin, would my powerful Vital Energy not end up benefiting her?

The more Xu Yan imagined, the more deeply he thought, and the more horrified he became.

In his mind, an image had already appeared of himself with blackened eye sockets, sunken cheeks, a withered body, depleted Vital Energy, and a staggering, tottering frame.

At this thought, Xu Yan sucked in a cold breath. Even the way he looked at Kou Ruozhi changed, and terror rose in his heart. This man is actually so sinister and vicious. He wants to derail my martial heart. He cannot be allowed to live!

He immediately glared furiously and said coldly, "You sinister and vicious fiend! You actually wish to derail my martial heart. Do you think I, Xu Yan, would ever be swayed by feminine beauty? You cannot be allowed to live today!"

He suddenly raised his hand. The power of the Dragon Subduing Palm emerged, and a gigantic crimson dragon was about to roar out.

Plop!

"Wait, wait, Young Master Xu, wait!"

Kou Ruozhi had been watching Xu Yan's expression the whole time. Seeing that something was wrong, he hurriedly dropped to his knees with a plop.

"Young Master Xu's will is as firm as a rock, unmoved by feminine beauty. I, Kou, am utterly convinced. In this world, only Young Master Xu can become our cult's Great Sage Heavenly Duke.

"When I mentioned the Heavenly Mother's beauty just now, it was only to witness Young Master Xu's rock-solid will and transcendent state of mind, untouched by beauty. I absolutely had no intention of disturbing Young Master Xu's martial heart!

"I can swear it to Heaven!"

Kou Ruozhi hurriedly raised his hand and swore.

Xu Yan's expression eased slightly, and he withdrew his palm force.

Kou Ruozhi was covered in cold sweat, secretly astonished. At the height of his vigor, he still isn't moved by the Heavenly Mother's peerless beauty? What young man could accomplish that?

Could it be that Xu Yan doesn't like women, but instead prefers men?!

At the thought of this possibility, Kou Ruozhi's mind stirred. His eyes rolled, and he came up with another idea.

"Actually, there are plenty of beautiful men among the followers of the Tianmu Cult. Whether you prefer delicate and refined or handsome and dashing, we have every sort of temperament. As long as Young Master Xu joins our cult and becomes the Great Sage Heavenly Duke, you may choose to your heart's content."

Xu Yan was young after all, and his heart was devoted entirely to martial arts. For a moment, he did not understand what Kou Ruozhi meant.

He asked in confusion, "Beautiful men? Choose to your heart's content?"

"Yes, yes! There are beautiful men in the cult, and Young Master Xu may choose to your heart's content!"

Kou Ruozhi wiped away a bead of cold sweat, rose to his feet, and spoke with an ingratiating smile.

Xu Yan blinked and was just about to ask what he would want beautiful men for when Madam Xu behind him suddenly grew anxious. In a trembling voice, she said, "Yan'er, don't frighten your mother. You prefer men?"

When Xu Yan heard this, realization dawned on him. He immediately flew into a rage. "You truly are sinister and vicious! When your beauty trap failed, you actually tried to ruin my reputation, disturb my state of mind, and shake my martial heart. You cannot be allowed to live!"

Plop!

Kou Ruozhi's soul nearly left his body, and he dropped to his knees again.

"Wait, wait, Young Master Xu, please wait! It's a misunderstanding! That isn't what I meant!"

Feeling the terrifying pressure contained in Xu Yan's palm, Kou Ruozhi was drenched in cold sweat and his face paled. His thoughts raced as he hurriedly said, "What I meant was for Young Master Xu to choose beautiful men and send them to that old Qi Emperor!

"That's right! Send them to that old Qi Emperor. Rumor has it that the fatuous Qi Emperor likes men. We can send him beautiful men, destabilize his harem, make him lose interest in governing, and throw himself into chaos.

"When the time comes, we can raise the banner that the Qi Emperor is without virtue, yin and yang have been inverted, and the moral order has been thrown into disorder. The people will surely rally to our side, allowing us to capture Jin'an in one stroke and seize the fatuous Qi Emperor alive!"

Kou Ruozhi was covered in cold sweat. He had no choice but to dump a basin of filth over the Qi Emperor's head.

The twelve supreme experts of the Tianmu Cult watched their cult's strategist, Military Advisor Kou, and could not help admiring him.

As expected of their cult's strategist! His ability to read expressions and adapt to circumstances was truly unmatched. If any one of them had been in his place, they would probably have died horribly on the spot by now.

Kou Ruozhi was close to breaking down inside. What is wrong with this Xu Yan? He doesn't like women? He doesn't like men either? Why does he think I'm trying to derail his martial heart?

I'm innocent! Did he misunderstand what I said?!

Xu Yan furrowed his brows as he looked at Kou Ruozhi and said coldly, "Whether I, Xu Yan, rebel or not has nothing to do with your Tianmu Cult. I have even less need for such despicable methods. What does that old Qi Emperor amount to? I could go straight to the Capital City and pluck off his head with ease."

"Yes, yes!"

Kou Ruozhi rose to his feet, covered in cold sweat.

That had been close!

He had narrowly escaped with his life!

His eyes shifted toward Xu Junhe, and he said with an ingratiating smile, "Master Xu, how about we have a talk?"

Xu Junhe glanced to the side at the pale-faced, furious Prefect of Donghe Commandery, then said calmly, "Kou Ruozhi, if you want to negotiate, show me that you have the qualifications to negotiate."

"Understood. I will show you that I have the qualifications to negotiate."

Kou Ruozhi exhaled.

He waved the feather fan in his hand, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and looked toward the experts of the Tianmu Cult. "Do it!"

"Yes, Military Advisor Kou!"

A man took out a whistle, put it to his lips, and blew it. The whistle sounded short, then long, and he blew it three times in succession.

Not long after the whistle sounded, whistles rang out one after another throughout Donghe Commandery City.

"Father, should we kill him?"

Xu Yan looked at the Prefect of Donghe Commandery and asked.

As for how to deal with the Prefect of Donghe Commandery and the others—whether to kill them all or do something else—he decided to let his father make the decision.

Xu Junhe pondered for a moment before saying, "Don't act yet. Wait for news from the Tianmu Cult."

After saying this, he exhaled and looked at his son with overwhelming excitement.

He had originally thought that his son's mind was not right and that he had believed the tales from storybooks.

Who could have imagined that he had actually cultivated such terrifying strength?

That crimson dragon had been like divine might. It was already beyond what human power could accomplish.
