My Top-Tier Tycoon Wife Chapter 689 689 Let's Run First!

Land of Lawlessness.

Green Lotus Palace.

Su Shanyue held Luo Xiu tightly, sobbing uncontrollably. She completely disregarded the ladylike image she usually maintained, turning decades of longing and repression into tears. She still rembered the last ti she had cried like this was decades ago, after the great calamity at the execution grounds.

Luo Xiu gently embraced her, at a loss for how to comfort her. But perhaps, no comfort was needed. The fact that he had returned to her alive was the greatest comfort of all.

After a long while, the crying subdued.

Luo Xiu reached out to wipe her face and said gently, "Have you cried enough?"

Su Shanyue pouted, her face full of grievance. She hit him on the chest with her dainty fists in annoyance, sniffling, "It's not fair that I'm the only one crying and you're not."

Luo Xiu shrugged. "n don't shed tears easily."

"Nonsense!" Su Shanyue snorted softly. She then pulled away from his embrace, staring at his face curiously. "How did you end up looking like this?"

Luo Xiu touched his own face. "Isn't it better that I've beco even more handso? Don't you like fresh young at?"

Su Shanyue huffed softly. "But I still think you were more handso before, and you had more of a manly charm."

Luo Xiu rolled his eyes. "So, should I leave?"

Upon hearing this, Su Shanyue pulled him back into her arms without another word, her red lips boldly claiming his.

Several minutes later, the two reluctantly parted.

Su Shanyue looked down, avoiding his gaze, her face flushed with shyness.

Luo Xiu touched his very wet lips and remarked, "I really miss the shy and gentle you from before."

Su Shanyue punched him in annoyance. "Am I not like that now?"

"You just forcibly kissed ."

"That's not true. You're clearly the shaless one."

"Then who stuck their tongue out first?"

Su Shanyue's face turned crimson. Suddenly, she felt as if her recent actions were those of a stranger.

"Um... does this count as this body's first kiss?"

"No."

Su Shanyue's expression imdiately hardened. "Then leave!"

Luo Xiu laughed heartily. "You just stay here and heal properly. I still have to go find Qian Qing and Xiao Yi."

Su Shanyue's face filled with concern. "You need to be careful. The Upper Realm is filled with experts, unlike the Lower Realm."

Luo Xiu smiled indifferently. "You've been in the Upper Realm for so long. Haven't you heard enough stories about the Azure Emperor?"

Su Shanyue pursed her lips. "And there you go, showing off again."

***

Boundless Heavens.

Luo Xiu walked out from a spatial entrance sowhere in the central area at an unhurried pace, and a pungent, bloody wind imdiately assaulted him.

The disciples from the Swordfire Divine Sect had already been cruelly slaughtered by Lao Ba and Black Fatty. However, Lao Ba and Black Fatty disdained to consu such insignificant fry. Little Pouch, on the other hand, couldn't have been more delighted. Fearing soone else would snatch them, she hastily gathered the Divine Sect Disciples into her Pagoda Space, intent on refining them into Dao Yuan for her own leisurely enjoynt.

anwhile, the intense battle between Lin Shanshan and the Swordfire Divine Sect's Profound Emperor was also drawing to a close. Although Lin Shanshan had only recently ascended to the Emperor Realm, she relied on her outstanding mastery of Taoist Arts and the combat experience she had gained fighting her way here. Within just a few exchanges, she was already trampling the Profound Emperor underfoot and delivering a vicious beating. Moreover, Master Ping and i Ji were there to back her up.

Luo Xiu walked over calmly, looking down at the Profound Emperor. "Where are the other two ladies?" he asked.

Back in the Land of Lawlessness, Su Shanyue had briefly explained the situation. Previously, Luo Qianye had held back Huo Tianlei and Wen Zhisheng, two Red Emperors, which allowed Su Shanyue, Xu Qianqing, and Zhang Yi to escape the encirclent. However, it wasn't long before Wen Zhisheng of the Heavenly Moon Cult caught up to the three won with his n. Facing a Red Emperor Realm powerhouse, the three were naturally no match and all suffered serious injuries before separating to flee. Now, it was unknown if Xu Qianqing and Zhang Yi were even still alive.

A short while later, Luo Xiu stepped forward and crushed the Profound Emperor's head, casually tossing out a ball of Indestructible Divine Fla to incinerate the body.

Little Pouch hurriedly flew over to stop him. "Big Brother, don't! That's a flagrant waste of a perfectly good treasure! Wouldn't it be delightful for to refine it instead?"

Luo Xiu retracted the Indestructible Divine Fla. A pair of Thunder Wings suddenly unfolded from his back as his gaze swept over Lin Shanshan and the others.

"I'll leave a Divine Consciousness Mark. You all can follow at your own pace. I'm going ahead to find them."

***

Guided by the approximate direction from the Profound Emperor and spreading his Divine Sense over a wide area, Luo Xiu quickly found Xu Qianqing and Zhang Yi.

Within the pockmarked wasteland, Xu Qianqing and Zhang Yi were both bathed in blood. Facing Wen Zhisheng, a Red Emperor Realm expert, was too much for two Profound Emperors to handle. It was only because Xu Qianqing's Wicked Tenderness Technique and Zhang Yi's Spirit Martial Markings were extraordinary abilities, combined with the fact that Wen Zhisheng didn't seem intent on killing them, that the two won had managed to survive this long. Otherwise, they would have already perished and descended to the Yellow Springs.

But the absolute gap in their realms could not ultimately be bridged by Taoist Arts or special techniques.

"At this point, both you fairies are at the end of your tethers. Do you still harbor delusions of futile resistance?"

Hearing this, Zhang Yi spat. "If you're going to kill us, then kill us! Cut the nonsense!"

Wen Zhisheng said indifferently, "If this old man truly had the intent to kill, I'm afraid you two fairies would have already died and your souls vanished."

Zhang Yi's aura surged wildly, and bright purple markings instantly appeared on her fair skin.

Seeing this, Wen Zhisheng's gaze sharpened slightly. "It seems that unless I make you two fairies recognize reality, you won't surrender willingly."

"And it looks like if you don't get a beating, you'll never change that high-and-mighty attitude of yours."

Suddenly, a man's voice sounded from behind Wen Zhisheng.

Wen Zhisheng's heart sank, his expression growing solemn.

When did he get behind ? I didn't sense him at all! To evade the perception of a Red Emperor, this newcor must be no ordinary foe!

Xu Qianqing and Zhang Yi looked at the unfamiliar young man, then glanced at each other, both filled with confusion.

Zhang Yi sent a Divine Sense Communication. "Sister Qing, do you think this person is here to help us?"

Xu Qianqing's lovely eyebrows furrowed as she replied, "I'm not sure. Let's just wait and see."

However, Zhang Yi had her own ideas. She suddenly grabbed Xu Qianqing's hand, accelerated to her top speed, and fled.

"This is our chance, Sister Qing, let's go!" she yelled. "That kind of pretty boy is obviously up to no good. He wants to play the hero saving the damsels in distress, make us fall in love with him, and then sleep with us before leaving."

Xu Qianqing's face darkened. "Xiao Yi, your imagination..."

"Just trust this once, Sister Qing! There are even more scumbags in the Upper Realm than in the Lower Realm. We can't let ourselves be taken advantage of! When you're a girl out in the world, you have to learn to protect yourself."

Back at the original spot, Wen Zhisheng didn't give chase as the two won fled. He turned slowly, his eyes landing on Luo Xiu's face.

Luo Xiu watched Xu Qianqing and Zhang Yi escape into the distance, feeling quite helpless as he silently cursed the two ungrateful won. He shifted his gaze back to Wen Zhisheng, noting the silver robe. "From the Heavenly Moon Cult?"
