Chapter 197: Don’t you have a wife How pitiful

Chapter 197

The powerful force struck Xie Qinzhou's heart like a thunderbolt, leaving him almost paralyzed with fear.

Just as the force was about to impact Xie Qinzhou's body, his instincts finally kicked in and he raised his hands in a futile attempt to block it.

But it was all in vain.

The overwhelming power nearly shattered Xie Qinzhou's internal organs. He suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, his face contorted in excruciating pain.

This sudden turn of events left Zhi Yao stunned as well.

After about a minute, Zhi Yao came to her senses and looked back at the man behind her.

When she clearly saw his figure, Zhi Yao's eyes suddenly lit up. She quickly ran over and threw her arms around the man's waist, burying herself in Pei Chiyao's embrace. "You scared me to death! I almost thought..."

Pei Chiyao soothingly stroked the young girl's head and said softly to Zhi Yao, "It's alright, go wait in the back."

Zhi Yao nodded and loosened her grip on Pei Chiyao. However, before she could take a step, Pei Chiyao grabbed her arm. "Wait a moment."

Zhi Yao was puzzled again. "What's wrong?"

Pei Chiyao narrowed his eyes, looking at the cat that had its entire face buried in Zhi Yao's chest. His already cold expression grew even more frigid.

"Where did this cat come from?"

His tone carried a hint of gritted teeth. Without waiting for Zhi Yao's answer, he directly reached out and grabbed the cat by the scruff of its neck, throwing it to the ground without mercy.

The movement was so quick that Zhi Yao had no chance to stop him.

Yan Mu, thrown to the ground, was trembling all over, not daring to look up at the man before her.

Too scary, too scary! She had thought Xie Qinzhou was already a frightening man, but this one... he was ten thousand times more terrifying than Xie Qinzhou!!!

She wanted nothing more than to flee right now, but she didn't dare move, fearing that the next second she might be killed by this man.

This was suppression from the depths of her bloodline.

Zhi Yao was about to reach out to comfort Yan Mu, but Pei Chiyao stopped her. "Yao Yao, don't touch it. It's dirty."

As he spoke, he pulled out a handkerchief from his pocket and repeatedly wiped his fingers. His disgust was evident.

Zhi Yao: "..." But the cat was actually very clean!

Before leaving, he didn't forget to instruct Zhi Yao again: "Don't touch it at all. I'll disinfect you properly when we get back."

He looked Zhi Yao up and down. These clothes would have to be discarded too.

Filthy.

Thinking of the cat's actions earlier, Pei Chiyao wanted to kill it.

Yan Mu, lying on the ground, instantly felt a murderous intent as sharp as a thousand knives, and trembled even more violently.

She even quietly inched away from Zhi Yao's direction.

Seeing the cat being so sensible, Pei Chiyao finally shifted his gaze and stepped towards Xie Qinzhou.

"Long time no see, Xie Qinzhou."

Only then did Xie Qinzhou clearly see the man who had struck earlier. It was... it was actually Pei Chiyao?!

He could hardly believe that Pei Chiyao would possess such powerful strength!

Why was this happening?

It had only been half a year since they last met!

This kind of power was simply impossible for a human to possess.

He casually glanced at Xie Qinzhou lying on the ground and sneered, "You seem to be quite interested in my wife?"

Xie Qinzhou: "..."

Seeing Xie Qinzhou's silence, Pei Chiyao couldn't help but continue, "Don't you have a wife of your own? How pitiful."

Xie Qinzhou: "..."

Was this guy showing off?! Huh?!

Xie Qinzhou looked up, his golden eyes shining behind the broken glasses, revealing a kind of fragile beauty. He gently wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his smile sardonic. "You don't know, do you? Zhi Yao was originally my fiancée."

There were rules within the clan. The child born of a Nine-Tailed Red Fox was supposed to be betrothed to his family.

His parents were the clan leaders, and the Nine-Tailed Red Fox was the rarest fox in the clan. Only such a fox was worthy of him.

But... no one had expected that such a powerful, noble, and beautiful Nine-Tailed Red Fox would give birth to a low-ability child.

So the matter had been dropped.

But Xie Qinzhou had always known that Zhi Yao belonged to him.

As Xie Qinzhou uttered these words, Pei Chiyao's eyes suddenly turned pitch black. "Bullshit! Who do you think you are?! Yao Yao has always been mine!"

When she was still a little baby fox, he had already set his eyes on her and taken her away.

Where the hell did this Xie Qinzhou come from?

Pei Chiyao was absolutely furious, his usual nonchalance and calmness disappearing without a trace.

He sneered, bending down to grab Xie Qinzhou's collar and lifting him up. Their eyes met, both pairs of eyes seeming to contain sharp blades. "I advise you to give up your delusions about Yao Yao. I can kill you right now."

The mere thought of his precious being coveted by someone else made the blood in Pei Chiyao's bones seem to boil.

Xie Qinzhou's teeth were chattering, the pressure from Pei Chiyao making it hard for him to breathe. Yet he still smiled, with mockery and coldness. "Even if you kill me, you can't change the fact that she's a fox. She was always meant to return to our clan, along with her mother. Even in death, they should die within the Fox Clan!"

"Hahahahaha... Hahahaha..."

Xie Qinzhou's laughter carried a sense of brokenness.

It made Zhi Yao's hair stand on end. She felt that... Xie Qinzhou had gone mad.

He really was like a lunatic!

Seeing Pei Chiyao's murderous expression, Zhi Yao feared he might lose control and kill Xie Qinzhou right there. She hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Pei Chiyao's arm, saying, "Pei Chiyao, let it go. We can't do this here."

This place was bustling with people coming and going. If they really killed him here, it would be difficult to escape cleanly. After all, they were still in the human world and should abide by its rules.

"Just cripple him. That'll stop him from causing trouble in the future."

Zhi Yao looked coldly at Xie Qinzhou.

This was already the best option she could give Xie Qinzhou, considering their shared clan ties.

Hearing this, Xie Qinzhou looked at Zhi Yao again. There was no fear on his face, only provocation. "Are you sure? Zhi Yao, if you cripple me, you'll regret it for the rest of your life."

"Stop making empty threats. You can barely save yourself now," Zhi Yao said dismissively.

Hearing this, Pei Chiyao suddenly released his grip, dropping Xie Qinzhou to the ground like a discarded rag.

Just as Pei Chiyao was about to strike, a white blur suddenly darted between the two men.

"Meow!"

Yan Mu firmly planted himself on Xie Qinzhou's chest, determined to shield him from the fatal blow.

"Wait!"

Zhi Yao hurriedly intervened, "Yan Mu, what are you doing?!"

"Meow!"

With tears filling his eyes, Yan Mu stubbornly protected Xie Qinzhou, desperately shaking his head at Zhi Yao.
