Capítulo 1061: Chapter 846: Your Dowry

Ever since Zhao Changhe started being straightforward, Ye Jiuyou seemed quite dazed.

No matter what, she found perfect answers to the perplexing questions—why he insisted on helping her, why he was willing to risk his life using his body for experiments, why he didn’t want her to be despised by others, why trust mattered so much…

These actions, which in an ordinary partnership would be deemed irrational, suddenly made sense when attributed to “he’s trying to woo me.”

So he really is trying to woo me…

Only now did she vaguely realize that she had previously had a subtle doubt, subconsciously ruling out the possibility… But now it turns out it was the only explanation. This scoundrel was never like the other Demon Gods obsessed with cultivation.

Precisely because of those slight suspicions, when he spoke, she felt a faint sense of “as expected,” which kept her from reacting much… Only now did she feel she should have been angry… Too bad she didn’t react immediately, and now there’s no atmosphere or conditions to lash out.

Ye Jiuyou didn’t know how to deal with a man who clearly had intentions towards her, especially someone like Zhao Changhe, who had experienced numerous battles. Silence seemed her only option, avoiding answering any questions she couldn’t figure out.

What’s going shopping, anyway? So baffling.

Luckily, she naturally had this cold and indifferent attribute, so it seemed normal. Even Zhao Changhe couldn’t tell if she was actually just dazed and not cold.

So he continued being direct: “If you don’t answer, I’ll take it as you agree… Alright, I’m rested, and your research wasn’t finished. You can continue using my body.”

“…” Ye Jiuyou’s lips twitched.

Being a research subject usually entails a slight sense of humiliation, especially since she had intentionally tormented him before. Turns out, he always considered it as being toyed with by a woman and was quite happy with that, even finding some twisted enjoyment in the torment, right?

This time, Zhao Changhe seemed quite pleased, while Ye Jiuyou felt agonized.

Even the research took on a different meaning, becoming impure, and Ye Jiuyou doubted if she could still calmly perceive the transformed darkness and life and death within him.

The atmosphere froze briefly, seeing her not moving, Zhao Changhe smirked: “Don’t tell me you’re feeling sorry?”

“Really despicable!” Ye Jiuyou didn’t even want to move her palms, spinning from her sitting position, she aimed a vicious side kick, trying to send him flying.

Zhao Changhe, instead of taking it lying down, suddenly reached out to catch her foot.

Only then did he realize, she was barefoot, too.

Her jade-like feet swept through the snow, even whiter than the snow itself.

Realizing his intention, Ye Jiuyou sneered coldly, maintaining the trajectory of her side kick, while secretly intensifying it. If he dared try to catch her foot, she would definitely send him flying off the cliff.

Zhao Changhe clearly noticed this and dared not catch it, opting to lean back to avoid it.

Since he was sitting cross-legged facing her, when he leaned back, her jade foot swept over his waist. Ye Jiuyou sneered, changing her energy flow, the kick now aiming sharply downward.

If that hit, it would be devastating.

Zhao Changhe broke out in a cold sweat, propping his hands on his key parts to stop the kick: “Hey! You…”

Ye Jiuyou, seemingly regaining her spirit, smiled slyly: “What, shouldn’t I waste you?”

Of course… If you seriously intended harm, with your currently overwhelming strength, I wouldn’t have held off that kick at all. Zhao Changhe thought swiftly, opting not to voice it and instead infused energy with his life and death energy.

Ye Jiuyou paused for a moment. Starting research and perception in this position?

Something seemed off…

In that brief pause, he brushed against her foot.

Enraged, Ye Jiuyou intensified her force, stomping viciously. Zhao Changhe was prepared, rolling away with a donkey’s roll, and with a “boom,” the mountain peak was demolished by several feet.

Amid the swirling dust, Zhao Changhe bolted, even using space transfer. Unfortunately, no matter what method he employed, Ye Jiuyou stayed shadow-like, always blocking his path. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

A jade foot expanded before his eyes, slamming into his chest with a “bang.” Zhao Changhe flew backward, spinning like he was soaring through clouds, “thud” sticking to the distant mountain wall, slowly sliding down.

Ye Jiuyou instantly appeared, grabbing him: “Enjoyed the touch?”

Zhao Changhe spat out snow and mud: “Just wait until I can beat you.”

Ye Jiuyou suddenly felt chills.

If this meant that when he could beat her, he’d freely toy with her feet? Ye Jiuyou never realized how important strength was until now, seeming more significant than competing with Ye Wuming.

But she hadn’t considered that all she had to do was end him now to prevent future trouble.

Furiously, Ye Jiuyou dragged Zhao Changhe back to the collapsed mountain peak, no longer needing to infuse shadows and death energy deliberately; that previous kick had driven everything in. She took several deep breaths to calm her emotions, pressed her palm against Zhao Changhe’s chest to continue perceiving the insights from before, disinclined to bicker further.

Zhao Changhe lay in the pit, his eyes continuously darting to her.

She truly was stunning, and this combination of identity and martial prowess put Piaomiao to shame, presenting an unparalleled allure.

This was indeed the greatest villain defined by Heavenly Dao, representing chaos, silent annihilation, death, and darkness. Just contemplating any intimate involvement with such an entity made his heartbeat race threefold.
