Chapter 906: Colluding with Each Other
Xu Nian finally understood why Shi Guangxu chose to come to the Guihai Family.
One reason was to get revenge against the Guihai Family Master, and the other was likely to retaliate against his fiancée who betrayed him.
Now thinking about it, Shi Guangxu was indeed pitiful.
"Hmph, Shi Guangxu, although I once liked you, what could you give me? In front of the Guihai Family, you are nothing. I advise you to let me go, otherwise the Guihai Family will never spare you." The woman named Cai Ling threatened Shi Guangxu.
Upon hearing this, a wave of anger surged on Shi Guangxu's face.
"Do you think I would be afraid of the Guihai Family? To be honest with you, I've tricked most of the Guihai Family's strongmen to the Falling Flower Star. Now they're busy trying to catch Xu Nian!" Shi Guangxu sneered.
Upon hearing this, Cai Ling suddenly realized something and looked at Shi Guangxu in shock, saying, "That Xu Nian is you? You killed Guihai Tianxing?"
Shi Guangxu sniffed and laughed, "The real Xu Nian indeed exists, and Guihai Tianxing was indeed killed by him. But after killing Guihai Tianxing, he disappeared. I only used his name to execute a diversion tactic on the Guihai Family. That pervert trying to make a move on the Guihai Family's Madam was just a cover. My real target is you!"
As their eyes met, Cai Ling shivered involuntarily.
A wave of dread surged in her heart.
She knew well the Guihai Family Master married her because Guihai Tianxing was dead and the Madam couldn't bear children anymore.
Therefore, she was to bear a son for the Guihai Family.
Also, this was her chance to become a superior.
But now, there's a mountain blocking her path.
Yes, it was Shi Guangxu, her former fiancé.
"What do you want? I can give you Spirit Stones, just name your price if you're willing to leave." Cai Ling hurriedly said.
At this moment, she was somewhat scared.
If Shi Guangxu really did something to her, the Guihai Family would definitely not accept her anymore.
After all, the Guihai Family couldn't afford such disgrace!
"What do I want? I'm just taking back what belongs to me, and making the Guihai Family pay a small price for killing my parents." Shi Guangxu laughed coldly.
After speaking, he walked up to Cai Ling.
"No, don't come near, please! Xu, I was wrong, I really was wrong, I love you, I was forced by the Guihai Family! Please let me go." Cai Ling implored.
Her eyes suddenly became sincere.
Xu Nian, standing outside the window, couldn't help but admire.
This woman's acting was truly divine.
Especially when she uttered the words "I love you," her gaze was tender like water.
Even Shi Guangxu was momentarily stunned.
Of course, Shi Guangxu wasn't a fool, and he quickly snapped back to reality.
"If you love me, then prove it!" Shi Guangxu laughed coldly, then released Cai Ling's physical restraint, though her cultivation seal remained.
Cai Ling, seeing she could move, quickly embraced Shi Guangxu.
Then she began to kiss him frantically.
Shi Guangxu sneered, cooperating with Cai Ling's actions.
Then the two became entangled.
Only Shi Guangxu's movements had a wild, venting intensity.
Standing outside the window, Xu Nian felt awkward.
However, he didn't do nothing; he skillfully used the Light Ball to record this wonderful scene.
After two hours, the pair ended their previous activity.
And just at this moment, Shi Guangxu did something that surprised Xu Nian.
He directly strangled Cai Ling, then discarded her naked corpse on the bed.
Never did Cai Ling imagine that despite her utmost effort to please, she would still meet a tragic end.
As Shi Guangxu walked out of the room, he noticed Xu Nian standing outside.
His eyes immediately flooded with intense hostility.
"No need to glare at me. Though I snuck a peek at your business, we're even now." Xu Nian remarked to Shi Guangxu.
He had no intention of hiding.
The game had gone on long enough; it was time to reveal the truth.
Shi Guangxu paused upon hearing this.
Then, seeming to understand, he smiled slightly.
"So you are Xu Nian. I originally planned to find a scapegoat, but unexpectedly ran into the real deal." Shi Guangxu smiled at Xu Nian.
Calling Xu Nian to steal from the Treasure Pavilion wasn't without purpose.
The Guihai Family's Treasure Pavilion defenses were extremely tight; it wasn't easy to get in.
Once Xu Nian was discovered, the Guihai Family would definitely be vigilant against him, allowing Shi Guangxu to escape amidst the chaos.
Then he could blame Xu Nian for his deeds.
He didn't expect the person he lured was the actual Xu Nian.
"Indeed, you didn't see it coming. Actually, I had already suspected you were a fake. So, I followed to watch. I must say, it was a brilliant performance." Xu Nian said, weighing the Light Ball in his hand.
"You don't need to threaten me with this, I don't care. In fact, thank you; if it gets out, even better. That'll just make the Guihai Family Master even angrier." Shi Guangxu shamelessly said.
Xu Nian raised an eyebrow, smirking: "You're the one who said it. Then I'll buy a thousand Light Balls and have people sell them. I guarantee everyone in the Taiheng Star System will know this, making the Guihai Family Master furious enough to vomit blood!"
Shi Guangxu widened his eyes upon hearing this: "Damn, you don't have to be so ruthless!"
"Who told you to tarnish my name with evil deeds? Now I'm called a notorious pervert. I really want to know, if this scene spreads, what people will call you?" Xu Nian chuckled.
Shi Guangxu was speechless.
But he didn't stop Xu Nian from doing so.
Though this meant he'd have to openly confront the Guihai Family.
However, since Xu Nian had discovered him, he clearly couldn't use this identity anymore.
Might as well reveal his identity!
He would eventually face the Guihai Family head-on.
But the most critical part was, he'd gained an ally.
He held no contempt for Xu Nian.
He wasn't foolish; since the other party dared to confront him, they clearly had a way to deal with him.
So he had no intention of attacking Xu Nian.
"Let's go! Further delay and we will be discovered!" Shi Guangxu said to Xu Nian.
Xu Nian raised an eyebrow, saying: "Leaving like this is too easy for them. Shouldn't we light a fire or something?"
"No need, watch out or you'll get burned!" Shi Guangxu widened his eyes.
He was already reckless enough, yet Xu Nian was even crazier.
Setting a fire in the Guihai Family?
That's asking for death!
Just as Shi Guangxu was astonished, Xu Nian was already holding a ball of flame in his hand.
Then the flame transformed into a fiery dragon, soaring into the sky, and descended upon various parts of the mansion.
"Whoa, you're serious!" Shi Guangxu exclaimed in surprise.
He didn't expect Xu Nian to actually do it!
