Why?
Was it because Helian Wei Wei took Hei Ze away giving him no chance to fight?
Nangong Lie rubbed his chin while heâs guessing, seemed to be not limited to this. âAh Jue, you...â
He hadnât finished speaking when Baili Jia Jue cut him short, his smiling expression seemed to come from a demon ordering a beheadment, monstrously cold, incomparably garish, yet gorgeous. âIt seems that itâs time to properly let this prey know who she actually belongs to.â
Having said this, his head turned around. His long curly hair as dark as night served to increase his bewitching beauty, adding to his seductiveness.
A few strands of hair fell down his forehead, sticking to his fair skin, making people feel an inconceivable handsomeness!
Nangong Lie swallowed his saliva, watched that handsome faceâs ice coldness thatâs different from the past, and choked down the words heâs going to say.
Heâs truly angry!
Creakââ
The deep blue petals were stepped on, each step was loud.
However, Baili Jia Jue seemed as if he liked to hear the sound of this kind of beautiful thing being destroyed, like a knife was cutting through his handsome face revealing a smiling expression that made people shiver in the heat.
Shadow followed behind him. âYour Highness?â
Baili Jia Jue didnât answer. He seemed to be distracted.
Shadow didnât know why his master suddenly stopped, could only tremble as he stood by the side, and also didnât dare to remind him that thereâs still another round of competition.
Baili Jia Jue seemed to be standing for a long time, so long that when he finally knew that woman wonât overtake him, he then slowly started to take large strides away, his long robe swirling. The ring on his left ear scattered light forming dazzling stars in the sky. His long eyelashes produced faint shadows, the peaceful handsome face looked so harmless, like and angel who descended onto the world, extraordinarily handsome, a god from oneâs dream.
âAh Jue...â Nangong Lie perceived that something was not quite right, so was a bit worried as he looked up.
A spectator from the Fine Compoundâs audience was still unconvinced and walked over to argue with Baili Jia Jue.
Yet before he even spoke, heâs intimidated by Baili Jia Jueâs expression, whose pair of blood red pupils coldly stared and approached step by step. His appearance was similar to a viperâs, refusing to tolerate another word from anyone.
That person couldnât help but take a step backwards, felt as if his face was cut to shreds by some unknown gas, producing a stinging pain.
âStupid thing.â Baili Jia Jue coldly smiled. Itâs unknown who heâs referring to. Following this, his pinkie ring cracked, only a series of âcrackâ and âpopâ sounds were heard.
All of the teacups arranged on the wood table also responded and broke into pieces. That young, yet tall and straight silhouette was slowly engulfed by the setting sun, thoroughly turning into a dizzying yellow creature. Within the boundless sunlight, one could only see that black robe rising, appearing abnormally demonic.
During that magical moment, it seemed as if an invisible hand sorrowfully swallowed up everything.
Nangong Lie watched this scene, his dense eyebrows furrowed, wondering if itâll be possible to compete in the next round or not.
Itâs clear that Ah Jue didnât plan on continuing.
What caused him to lose interest?
Nangong Lie creased his dense brows, breathed a long sigh, and placed his pair of hands behind his head. His gaze fell on Wei Wei.
Was it her?
Even though Wei Wei was using martial strength to suppress Hei Ze, however, she also didnât forget to pay attention to her teammatesâ actions. Seeing Baili Jia Jue leaving, she originally also wanted to follow.
But was pulled back by Hei Zi. Donât know for whose eyes he deliberately did that, embracing her entire body into his chest.
âWhatâre you doing?â Wei Weiâs long, shapely eyebrows creased and coldly laughed. âYouâd better give me a good explanation.â
Hei Ze pushed her head down, but didnât look at her at all. Instead, heâs looking straight ahead at that distracted beautiful figure separated from them by the competition stage, smiling as if heâs dearly spoiling Wei Wei. âWhatâs there to explain? Even though we donât reside in the same compound, you also shouldnât treat me so ice-coldly, my baby.â
âYouâre sick!â Wei Wei coldly glared and immediately punched at his stomach.
Hei Ze coughed fiercely and said softly. âSo ruthless! In the future, Iâll forgo my bonuses, is that still not OK?â
âNot OK!â Wei Wei used force to push him away, and abruptly walked away.
After she saw that beautiful figure staring blankly, she then realized what shenanigans that partner of her was up to.
So heâs trying to make her young buddy feel jealous. Thatâs why he acted so strangely.
She couldnât help but wonder if the Hei familyâs young master was an idiot. Could it be that he didnât know that doing this would only push her further away?
Really, the young people in ancient times didnât have a very high emotional IQ.
Wei Wei didnât have time to explain to that buddy of hers. As the Inferior Compoundâs captain, she first needed to bring back her team member.
Luckily, Baili Jia Jue hadnât gone far at all.
Wei Wei ran to chase after him. With a single glance, she could see the injury on his pinkie finger, her eyebrows jumped. Without being long-winded, she immediately took his hand and pulled it up. âHow did this wound happen?â
Baili Jia Jueâs long eyebrows slightly creased as he turned his head. Heâs wondering whether he should just use the opportunity to remove all four limbs from this silly little thing right now, especially her right hand, the hand that touched another man...
âCome over a bit more.â Wei Wei again pulled towards her, looking at that handsome finger, she took out a white handkerchief and while helping the other person clean, she smiled and said. âSo careless.â
Baili Jie Jue coldly humphed, the more he looked at her right hand, the more he was bothered.
âIâll help you apply pressure, thatâll help staunch the bleeding.â Wei Wei held Baili Jia Jueâs hand in a very natural manner.
Baili Jia Jueâs pair of ice-cold eyes paused and turned to Wei Weiâs eyes, then lowered his head again, looking at the hand on the hollow of his palm.
Thatâs a slim yet powerful hand. Even though itâs slender and pretty, yet because of the thin callouses on the flesh of her fingers, it appeared a bit crude.
Heâs someone whoâs very picky about hands. Itâs not that he hadnât seen hands more pampered and fairer than hers.
But right now, he suddenly felt that this kind of hand, if he really were to break them, itâd be such a pity.
Baili Jia Jue creased his long brows, thinking to himself heâd give her one last chance. Next time, if sheâs still like this, then heâd take the man sheâd touched and throw him into the ocean as fish food.
Maybe heâd simply have her locked up in his palace, and he could make her a golden cage, after that...peel off all of her clothes!
Nobody would like having others touch their prey.
He was even more so.
âThe competition will start soon, letâs go first.â After Wei Wei helped Baili Jia Jue staunch the bleeding, her first reaction was to bring her team member to rush to the next arena.
After all, martial qi was now the first match. If he wasnât there, itâd be impossible to start.
âAlright.â Baili Jia jue looked down and stood up, tall body graceful. His entire face was covered by his cloak, making it impossible to see his expression clearly.
Wei Wei also didnât notice the danger contained within his pair of eyes all this time, because she was in such a rush.
The academy rules stated that a competitor must arrive on time and be prepared to go onstage to compete. Otherwise, they forfeit the match!
