"Now you're scared, boy? You've offended so many people that half the world wants you dead. But I'll at least let you die knowing why — Venerable Wuyan sent me!" The figure in black smiled enchantingly. "So now you get to choose — do you want a quick death, or a slow and painful one?"
The figure's slender fingers traced slowly along the skin of
With threats intermittently emanating from near the base of his thigh, how could Nie Li not feel his scalp tingling with dread?
"Senior, please don't joke around with a junior like this!" Nie Li said with a bitter smile.
"Joke? Do you really think I'm joking?" The figure in black tapped the dagger against Nie Li's crotch, an ambiguous smile playing on their lips.
"Senior is definitely not sent by Venerable Wuyan. There's no way Venerable Wuyan could command someone like Senior. Venerable Wuyan is at most around the third stage of the Dragon Dao Realm, while Senior is at least at the eighth stage or above! Senior could crush Venerable Wuyan with a flick of a finger — why would you ever take orders from him?" Nie Li said, studying the figure in black.
The figure in black was visibly surprised. She had never expected Nie Li to be able to gauge the power levels of both Venerable Wuyan and herself.
After all, Nie Li was merely at the Destiny Realm. What ordinary Destiny Realm cultivator could possibly tell which Dragon Dao Realm powerhouse was stronger than another?
"Keep talking. If you can come up with something more, I might just spare you today!" The figure in black crossed her arms and smiled, the pressure of her arms pushing her chest into a remarkable arc.
Nie Li could only smile bitterly. With his current abilities, how could he possibly guess the other party's identity? A woman this bewitching, with such formidable strength — she had to be someone of great standing within the Feather God Sect.
He searched his memories carefully, trying to figure out who fit the description.
"The power Senior displayed just now didn't feel like it belonged to the Dragon Dao Realm... could it be... a Martial Ancestor?" Nie Li's eyes locked onto the other party.
The figure in black's hood shifted slightly.
Nie Li's heart stirred. Had he guessed right? If she was a Martial Ancestor, then there was a very good chance she was that person...
"Based on the technique Senior used, it should belong to the Dragon Seal Family! And among the Dragon Seal Family's Martial Ancestors... I believe Senior's identity is practically written on the wall — there's no need to guess!" Nie Li said after a moment's thought.
"Hahaha, you guessed wrong. I haven't reached the Martial Ancestor level — I'm at the ninth stage of the Dragon Dao Realm!" The figure in black giggled, her body shaking with laughter, the curves of her chest heaving dramatically. "But for a brat like you to figure out I'm from the Dragon Seal Family, that does show some ability!"
Dragon Seal Family? Ninth stage of the Dragon Dao Realm?
Nie Li had no idea who she was now, and could only smile helplessly. "Wrong again!"
The figure in black tapped the dagger against Nie Li's crotch again and said, "You bullied my daughter so terribly — is it really too much for her mother to come settle the score?"
Hearing the figure's words, Nie Li finally understood. This person in black was
"Auntie, let me explain —" Nie Li hurriedly tried to explain.
