Xiang Jinhong had never forgotten Shen Youling's extraordinary beauty. After suffering several major losses at Lin Tang's hands, however, he really didn't dare to covet her anymore. There were plenty of other fish in the sea, and as it happened, his luck was good today. He had just found one.
This ti, I absolutely can't miss my chance!
As soon as Xiang Jinhong got out of the car, he made a beeline for the Minor Diviner, smoothing his hair as he walked, looking every bit the peacock. His bodyguards flanked him closely, shoving passersby out of the way.
"Move aside, move aside!"
"Didn't you see our Young Master Xiang has arrived? Scram, all of you!"
When the onlookers saw it was Xiang Jinhong, they all stepped aside, not daring to provoke him for fear of bringing trouble upon themselves.
"May I ask for the beauty's na? Are you married?" Xiang Jinhong asked with a lecherous grin, brazenly admiring the Minor Diviner's face from up close. The more he looked, the more he liked what he saw.
The Minor Diviner blinked. "Why do you ask? Are you trying to court ?"
"Uh—" Xiang Jinhong was taken aback. The word "courting"… now that was interesting! "That's right, I am courting you! Heh heh, let tell you sothing. On my turf, it's best if you're not married. But even if you are, it doesn't count anymore! From now on, you're mine!"
His face was a mask of arrogance and rampant confidence. He reached out to wrap an arm around the Minor Diviner's waist, while his other hand went straight for her cheek.
"Poor child," Elder Zhan sighed with pity, turning his head away.
The passersby who had already moved to a safe distance watched with sympathy.
"Sigh, another delicate girl is about to be ruined by Young Master Xiang!"
"Most of the won he's ssed with before were tossed aside after a few days. The longest one lasted was only a month or two, right?"
"This girl is stunning, though. Maybe he'll keep her as his mistress!"
"If that's the case, it wouldn't be so bad. At least she'd get to enjoy a life of wealth and luxury…"
As the crowd murmured, they all suddenly widened their eyes in disbelief.
They watched as the seemingly gentle Minor Diviner suddenly grabbed Xiang Jinhong's wandering hand. Twisting it like a pretzel, she bent it back behind him.
CRACK!
Xiang Jinhong's face instantly flushed red, but before he could even scream, the Minor Diviner grabbed him by the neck and lifted him into the air. Swinging him like a sledgehamr, she sent his bodyguards flying.
BANG!
Xiang Jinhong was thrown to the ground like a piece of trash.
"You're too weak. You can't handle my favor," the Minor Diviner said, dusting off her hands with a mischievous, impish smile. "You should find soone who can take a beating."
"AHHH—" Only then did Xiang Jinhong let out a piercing wail, twitching on the ground like a shrimp.
"My god!"
"This woman… she's ferocious!"
"So she's a trained fighter!"
"Miss, you have to run! You may be skilled, but that's Young Master Xiang! His family's influence is imnse, and they employ a gang of extrely vicious thugs. You can't fight them all by yourself…"
"Yes, yes, get out of here now!"
"We should leave too! If his anger gets turned on us, we're all done for!"
The crowd scattered in a panic. The Minor Diviner tilted her head, looking down at Xiang Jinhong, his face a ss of snot and tears.
"Oh, so you're a bad guy, and your family is a bunch of bullies!"
「An hour later.」
At the Xiang Family mansion, an entire wall of glass was shattered. Bodies were strewn haphazardly across the floor amidst broken floorboards and pulverized furniture. The clear water of the swimming pool was stained with a patch of bright red blood.
The once-enraged Xiang Zecheng now cowered like a quail, head tucked in, trembling. His precious son, Xiang Jinhong, looked on in a stupor, having even forgotten the pain in his body.
Who the hell did I provoke?! Xiang Jinhong deeply regretted his actions. He never imagined that hitting on a beautiful woman could lead to this. He'd flirted with so many before without any trouble!
WOOF! WOOF! WOOF!
The enormous, chained, vicious dog finally broke free, baring its teeth as it charged toward the Minor Diviner.
"Wow, what a cute doggie!" the Minor Diviner exclaid in delight.
She grabbed its head and began to rub it vigorously. Then, just as its roars softened into whimpers, she gave a casual twist. With a sharp snap, she broke the dog's neck, killing it instantly.
"Oh dear, I accidentally used a bit too much strength. What a sha," the Minor Diviner said, shrugging.
"You—" Xiang Zecheng didn't know what to say. As he saw her walk toward him step by step, his terror grew. He began begging for rcy, offering to pay one hundred million in compensation, no, one billion, two billion…
"STOP!"
At that mont, a group of n charged in from outside, surrounding the area. They were shocked and furious at the sight before them. They raised their guns, aiming them all at the Minor Diviner.
"You have so nerve, breaking into a private residence and maliciously injuring people! Do you realize you're committing a cri? Surrender now and co with to face judgnt!" the leader shouted righteously.
Xiang Zecheng's fear turned to joy. "Brother Hu, you're finally here! Why waste words on this bitch? Just shoot her dead!"
"Brother Xiang, rest assured," the leader said soothingly. "With us here, she won't dare lay a finger on you!" He then turned back to the Minor Diviner and bellowed, "I'll count to three! If you don't put your hands up and surrender, we will open fire!"
"A gun? What's that?" the Minor Diviner asked, a little curious. Then, her expression turned to one of confusion. "Look closely, they're bullies! They publicly harass and assault won. They've done many similar things over the years. If you want to serve justice, you should be beheading them, not shouting at a weak woman like ."
"Nonsense! Do you have any evidence for those claims? Without proof, it's just slander!" Xiang Zecheng shrieked, stomping his foot. "And you have the gall to call yourself a weak woman? You're a damn lunatic, a murderer!"
The leader chid in, "He was just joking with you, trying to get to know you. If you felt harassed, you could have co to us for help. Instead, you chose the most reckless course of action… Enough talk. Surrender now, or I'll really shoot!"
"I see," the Minor Diviner said, a look of realization dawning on her face. "So you're all in this together. In that case, there's nothing more to say."
WHOOSH!
Her figure flickered, and in an instant, she was standing before the leader. She pressed a palm against his chest. Imdiately, the man flew backward like a cannonball.
"Still putting up a fight?"
"Kill her!"
BANG! BANG! BANG!
The n quickly scattered, creating distance as they decisively pulled their triggers. The Minor Diviner moved like a phantom, dodging the bullets with ease. After the volley, she turned and looked at the walls, which were now riddled with deep holes.
Her pupils constricted.
"Such vicious hidden weapons! How dare you treat an unard, helpless woman like this way?!" she protested angrily. She was done holding back.
One punch left a man's head gushing blood. A single kick sent another man flying, spitting up blood. She took down every last one of them, though she sustained so injuries in the process.
"Minor Diviner, there are a lot of reinforcents outside! We have to go now!" Elder Zhan urged.
Furious, the Minor Diviner slapped Xiang Zecheng, knocking out half his teeth. Then she leaped up, clearing the courtyard wall, and fled with Elder Zhan at top speed.
Though they were fast on their feet, their pursuers' cars were not slow. Drones with caras tracked them from the sky, and more and more people joined the chase. Before long, the Minor Diviner was once again surrounded by a watertight blockade.
"You people! You've really made angry now!" the Minor Diviner yelled, her mouth pouting and her cheeks puffing out like a goldfish's.
"Kill her! Kill her!" Xiang Zecheng and Xiang Jinhong shrieked in unison from inside one of the cars.
The n aid their guns again, about to fire as one.
"Binding Demon Rope, bind them!" The Minor Diviner ford a hand seal and pointed a finger to the sky.
WHOOSH!
A shimring golden rope shot out from her sleeve. It soared through the air like a dragon, spiraling several tis as it extended, and extended, and extended even further. In the blink of an eye, the rope, now hundreds of ters long, had tightly ensnared everyone. Their limbs were twisted as they were hoisted high into the air.
"Holy shit!"
"What the hell is that thing?"
"Mommy, help !"
"I can't breathe…"
Everyone, whether they were bound by the rope or watching from a distance, was completely dumbfounded.
Seeing this, Elder Zhan sighed helplessly. "Minor Diviner, you've used your treasure. What will we do if we run into that Heavenly King later…?"
The Minor Diviner was unconcerned. "He's just a re Heavenly King. The Binding Demon Rope has plenty of power. It's more than enough to capture ten of them."
"That's good to hear," Elder Zhan said. "Let's hurry and go."
"Go where? These people are outrageous. I'm going to find their superiors and demand an explanation!" the Minor Diviner declared coldly.
And so, she forged ahead. No matter how many people ca after her, she bound them all. The Binding Demon Rope's power was astonishing. Anyone caught by it suffered broken bones at the very least and was left completely immobilized. It could extend continuously and penetrate any defense. Within a one-kiloter radius, no one could escape it.
By the ti Yan Qinghe saw the video footage, no fewer than ten helicopters had already been destroyed. No one could stop her.
Where did this new disaster co from… Huh, wait. Zoom in on the video. Zoom in more!
Yan Qinghe was nursing a headache, debating whether to authorize a large-scale bombardnt, when a closer look at the video footage revealed Elder Zhan.
Why is he there? Oh, for crying out loud, this is a massive misunderstanding!
Yan Qinghe hastily pulled out a Communication Talisman and activated it. A mont later, Elder Zhan felt a pull and took out his own matching talisman.
「Half a day later.」
Yan Qinghe t with Elder Zhan and the Minor Diviner. During his last visit to the Yaochi Heavenly Palace, he hadn't t the Minor Diviner. Upon learning her identity, he didn't dare show any disrespect and imdiately bowed.
The Minor Diviner looked at him, her face devoid of emotion. "I feel that your entire mortal realm is in need of correction."
"Yes, yes, you're right. It was our mistake. I'm so sorry! I will be sure to punish them severely!"
"Severe punishnt isn't enough. I'm thinking it might not be a bad idea to let the Underworld replace all of you."
"Huh?"
"Therefore, I no longer intend to involve myself in the affairs of your mortal realm. I'm going back."
"What?!"
