Thinking of Ways to Take Revenge [Please Follow for Updates]

"Heh, aren't you only acting tough because Bei Bei likes you? Without Bei Bei, would you even dare raise your voice in front of me? I could have you buried the next second!"

Xu Sanshi replied with his arms crossed, utterly unconcerned, as if he were talking about something perfectly ordinary.

Before he could receive Tang Ya's reply, however, his martial soul suddenly stirred.

It was the throbbing sensation of a martial soul fusion skill!

Instinctively, he looked in that direction and saw Jiang Nannan pressed closely against Jiang Mu's side.

Thump, thump!

In an instant, he was captivated by her beauty.

"Someone likes me. So what?"

Tang Ya spoke nonchalantly as well, but that was not what she truly thought inside.

Because she really had no way to refute this matter.

Because Xu Sanshi was telling the truth.

He was the young master of a reclusive sect. If he truly wanted to do something, Tang Ya was just a weak girl with no backing and no powerful martial soul. If he was displeased, being buried would be the least of her worries.

Jiang Mu had been ready to enjoy a good show and was waiting for Xu Sanshi's rebuttal, only to discover that Xu Sanshi had been staring in his direction the entire time. It seemed rather strange.

Following that gaze toward himself, it was obvious Xu Sanshi was not looking at him.

"Hm?"

He immediately frowned and looked at Jiang Nannan, his gaze gradually turning cold.

As a transmigrator with a unique way of thinking, Jiang Nannan was his forbidden possession. He would not allow anyone other than himself to covet her!

Jiang Nannan had not said a word from beginning to end. She had been holding Jiang Mu's hand, considering her next strategy for winning him over.

Only when things suddenly fell quiet did he come back to his senses.

"Hm?"

Curiously examining the situation around him, he realized that someone had been openly staring at him.

That completely undisguised desire made Jiang Nannan feel sick.

Yet Xu Sanshi acted as if he had not noticed. He adjusted his clothes, cleared his throat softly in a pretentious manner, and extended his hand.

"Heh, may I ask what this beautiful lady is called? I am Xu Sanshi, the young sect master of the Xuanming Sect."

"..."

Jiang Nannan did not even look at him and continued holding Jiang Mu's hand.

"Let's get acquainted. I'm the young sect master, and I have quite a bit of influence. I can protect you."

"Hey, isn't this going too far? Can't you see she doesn't want to know you?"

Just as Xu Sanshi was about to step forward, Jiang Mu raised his hand and grabbed him!

"Hm?"

A hint of displeasure appeared on Xu Sanshi's face. He looked up, briefly sized Jiang Mu up, then lowered his gaze to Jiang Nannan beside him and instantly seemed to understand something.

"Oh, so you're siblings. As expected."

"Little brother, judging by your age, you must be here to enroll in Shrek Academy, right? Once you get into Shrek Academy, just mention my name, Xu Sanshi. I'll look after you siblings from then on!"

Xu Sanshi seemed to have noticed that Jiang Nannan was unwilling to speak with him, so he decided to start with Jiang Mu, whom he took to be her younger brother.

Seeing Jiang Mu's ugly expression, Xu Sanshi assumed he was merely shy and did not know how to respond. He laughed heartily.

"Heh, no need to be nervous. Maybe we'll be family someday."

Xu Sanshi was grinning from ear to ear. He had not expected that coming to auction off a Mysterious Water Pill for some funds would lead him to meet someone who made his martial soul stir.

Moreover, these two clearly did not look particularly worldly. Their clothes were plain, so perhaps he would not even need threats or inducements. Once he revealed his identity, they might come crawling over on their own.

If they could fuse their martial souls in the future, he could further stabilize his position and prevent some younger brother who suddenly appeared from taking it away.

Not only could he increase his strength, but he could also have a beautiful woman by his side. Why not?

"Right, what are your names?"

Jiang Mu directly raised his hand and shoved him hard.

"Get lost! I'll protect Nannan myself."

As he spoke, Jiang Mu pushed harder with his hand.

Tap, tap—

Xu Sanshi's expression changed slightly after being shoved away.

Jiang Nannan had actually wanted to stop him when she saw this. After all, they were unfamiliar with the place. If he really was some important figure, they would be in trouble, considering they were merely ordinary people.

Such concerns were perfectly normal, but since Jiang Mu had already acted like this, speaking up now would be undermining him. Naturally, she had to stand with her own people.

As for saying something nice to smooth things over, forget it. They did not need his protection or need to curry favor with him. They simply did not want trouble.

Jiang Mu had made his choice. She only needed to stay by his side.

There were many ways to win someone over.

Deliberately getting close to other men to make the person she liked jealous was far too cheap. It was practically deranged.

Jiang Nannan was not stupid. She stared seriously at Xu Sanshi after he was pushed away, guarding against him lashing out in desperation.

Xu Sanshi's face instantly darkened after being shoved away, but after looking at Jiang Nannan again, he suppressed his anger.

"Hm..."

He forced an awkward smile onto his face, lightly dusted off his arm, and returned to normal. His narrowed eyes watched Jiang Mu. "Little brother, I only wanted to make a friend. Isn't this attitude a little..."

At that moment, Jiang Nannan finally spoke.

"I don't need friends. It's not hard to guess what you're thinking from that look in your eyes. Disgusting. And you were even talking about becoming family."

Jiang Mu watched Xu Sanshi's reaction, prepared at any moment for him to make a move. A young master like this was definitely selfish. Under these circumstances, it was entirely possible that he would attack, so they had to stay on guard.

Tang Ya laughed gleefully from the side. "Haha, your attempt at striking up a conversation failed, huh? You introduced yourself as the young sect master of the Xuanming Sect the moment you met her, and you still got no respect."

Xu Sanshi's face darkened. She had given him no face at all, and now he was being mocked like this.

"Besides, I already have someone I like."

After saying that, Jiang Nannan did not hesitate in the slightest. She leaned over and kissed Jiang Mu.

Smack—

Jiang Mu only felt his cheek grow wet.

Creak, creak!

Seeing this, Xu Sanshi gritted his teeth until they creaked.

Inside, he looked down on Jiang Nannan with contempt.

Stupid woman.

It was an honor for her that he wanted to get acquainted with her, yet she dared refuse him!

She had no power or influence at all, yet she dared treat him like this.

Heh, what he loved most was forcibly taking women!

"What, are you going to attack us? Planning to do what you said earlier?" Jiang Mu raised a brow and taunted him. That look in his eyes made it seem as though he wanted to kill them.

Seeing that a conflict was about to break out, the male appraiser beside them hurriedly stepped forward to stop them.

"Oh, guests, please do not make a scene here. It is better to resolve grudges than deepen them."

Xu Sanshi immediately furrowed his brow. He glared at Jiang Mu, clenched his fist, then slowly loosened it again.

"Heh, I'll make you understand the consequences of offending me!"

After saying that, Xu Sanshi turned and left.

"Xiao Mu, after we leave, you should find somewhere to hide for a while. Xu Sanshi is the sort of person who holds grudges over every slight."

Seeing that Jiang Mu had remained silent, Tang Ya assumed he was worried and offered her advice.

Jiang Mu came back to his senses and smiled.

"Heh, he's nothing to fear. Let's just take a look at the auction. I've never been to one before."

Being cautious was necessary, of course. If he did not have his cheat ability, Jiang Mu would absolutely have taken Jiang Nannan and fled immediately after offending Xu Sanshi.

He would not gamble his and Jiang Nannan's lives. He would choose to lie low, wait until he had grown stronger, then come back to settle the score!

Only the living could talk about pride.

But he had a cheat ability, so why should he keep a low profile?

The revenge list activated.

There were now three people on the revenge list.

Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, and this male appraiser.

As for Tang Ya, whose killing intent had been at 1%, he directly chose to hide her entry. It already showed that her current killing intent was zero, so it would automatically be hidden, though he could still bring it up if he wanted.

Jiang Mu was somewhat surprised to see the male appraiser listed as well. It seemed they were in the same group.

Since they were in the same group, he would use them as stepping stones to obtain his beginner reward.

He said nothing more and left the appraisal room.

Even if they hated each other inside, the auction still had to go on, or they would be held accountable.

Since they had items for auction, they did not need to pay any additional fee to participate. The three of them headed toward the viewing seats.

As he walked, Jiang Mu considered how to use his cheat ability to torment Xu Sanshi.
