Manipulative Harem God-Chapter 476 Hey, black cat — Your master and I have reached a truce, so what’s with the growling?

Yin Yaqing stood frozen, unable to comprehend the situation before her.

Then, a surge of fury ignited within her, her eyes blazing crimson.

"You bastard--!" she spat as a sword with shinning metal blade, deadly -- crackling with energy materialized in her grip, ready to strike down Zhang Wei with punishing force.

The air filled with tension as Tang Lifen's trusted subordinate unleashed a cry of alarm, startling Tang Lifen from her foggy mind.

"Qingqing, wait!" she shouted, but it was too late.

Swish!

Yin Yaqing lunged towards Zhang Wei, her intent clear and deadly.

"Haha..." Laughter rang out, a chilling contrast to the escalating conflict.

Zhang Wei, intrigued by the daringness of the young woman before him, abandoned Tang Lifen without hesitation, eager to test his newfound powers beneath the fierce gaze of Yin Yaqing.

!!

"Huh?"

Abruptly, Yin Yaqing froze midair, suspended for a moment before a massive shockwave hurled her backward.

Boooooom!

"Argh!"

"Cough... Cough.."

Her back collided with the wall, causing her to cough up blood, her gaze locking onto Tang Lifen whose face twisted in dark frustration.

This enemy was unlike any other, able to restrain her effortlessly without needing to call upon qi.

It was for this reason she had warned Yin Yaqing.

With a sinister chuckle, Zhang Wei moved closer. "Let's continue," he said, his hands gripping Tang Lifen tightly, causing her to shudder involuntarily as his presence overwhelmed her once more.

"Mmmghhhhhhhhh...."

Tang Lifen's body heaved with anguish, unable to find solace, while her disciple, Yin Yaqing, watched in despair as her revered master moaned in pain, shedding tears of her own weakness.

She knelt before Tang Lifen, her eyes red and trembling, unable to tear her gaze away.

"Ah, such a beautiful day, isn't it?" Under the silvery glow of moonlight, Zhang Wei emerged by the poolside, his lean frame swathed in a white towel.

"!"

"Humph..." Yin Yaqing recoiled in disgust, her eyes blazing with fury as she watched him stride out with insufferable ease.

She sharply turned her head away, her cheeks burning with anger.

But how could Zhang Wei simply ignore her seething rage?

"Hey, black cat-- Your master and I have reached a truce, so what's with the growling?" He asked, his voice teasing, which only deepened the storm brewing within Yin Yaqing. 𝒻𝓻𝑒ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝑛𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓁.𝑐𝘰𝓶

"!"

"I would tear you apart if you dare speak Lifen's name again!" Yin Yaqing hissed venomously.

"Qingqing, stop this." Tang Lifen, arriving moments later draped in a crisp bathrobe, intervened gently.

!?

Yin Yaqing froze, baffled and silent. 'Why is she defending him now?' she pondered, utterly speechless.

Unable to resist, Zhang Wei shot a mocking glance at Yin Yaqing, his smirk only ruffling the flames of this bird.

"!"

"You!?" Yin Yaqing's face nearly turned crimson with anger, her voice trembling with rage.

Observing the tense standoff between the two, Tang Lifen shook her head in dismay. "Qingqing, please go outside and ensure no one enters the pavilion."

"..."

Yin Yaqing hesitated, her lips parting as if to speak, but after a few agonizing seconds, she vanished, her departure tinged with a sense of helplessness.

Turning her sharp gaze towards Zhang Wei, Tang Lifen's eyes bore into him. "Can you truly liberate me from the Prince's control?" she questioned, her tone laced with urgency.

Within the confines of her room, Zhang Wei diligently executed his task, skillfully manipulating her thoughts and feelings through a blend of coercion and persuasion, his efforts proving effective.

Unable to contain his grin, Zhang Wei closed the gap between them, inhaling the scent of her shampoo that filled the air. "Only if you stop your pursuit of me," he teased.

"..."

Tang Lifen's frown deepened as she attempted to retreat, but his firm grip around her waist halted her efforts.

Encountering this man once more, she couldn't shake the feeling of disbelief.

Was he truly the same person she had encountered just a month ago?

How had he undergone such a dramatic transformation?

With a sense of helplessness washing over her, she began, "I'll give you one year, but if you don't succeed, I will—"

"Shh..."

Before Tang Lifen could finish her sentence, Zhang Wei silenced her with a finger pressed against her cold lips. "You don't set the terms here," he muttered, his breath tickling her neck and causing her to involuntarily squirm.

"Your options are already limited. It's either you place your trust in me completely, or I'll leave this place a graveyard, with you included," his voice was laced with a dangerous edge that sent shivers down her spine.

"!"

Fury flashed across her face as her lips parted to protest, "Don't you dare—"

Whoosh!

Before she could utter another word, Zhang Wei swiftly turned her around, his hand slipping inside her bathrobe to grasp her breast, while his other hand ventured between her thighs, applying a gentle pressure.

"Enough of your hissing, my — stray cat. Now, listen carefully and tell me everything you know about this city and your prince," he growled, his eyes glinting with a menacing gleam.

As he clicked his tongue in exasperation, her breasts continued to amaze him, momentarily catching him off guard and awakening the beast within him.

"..."

Tang Lifen's expression darkened ominously before she finally sighed in defeat.

The Xianghui territory stands as a dominion under the Iron Syndicate's iron grip, with the Huanglong Dynasty exerting its authority alongside.

Although the Jade Court and the mysterious Midnight Shadow Group stay in the shadows, they remain passive observers, refraining from embroiling themselves in territorial flights.

Zhang Wei's realization dawned sharply as he uncovered the association between Chu Yaoyao and the Huanglong Dynasty.

At the helm of the Iron Syndicate stands a powerful warrior, listed fifteenth at the Earth list, while the Jade Court is masterminded by Tang Lifen, supported by the Prince.

The Midnight Shadow Group, a gathering of ex-criminals cloaked in mystery, lives up to its name, shrouded in secrecy, revealing little about their operations save for occasional glimpses that portray their presence.

Then, there are multiple martial arts families, such as Chen and Jiang. The Chen family has recently surged in prominence, attributed to a mysterious dragon warrior, whom Zhang Wei speculated to be Long Tian.

The Jiang family has maintained close ties with the Huanglong Dynasty. In addition to these influential families, others like the Qiao, Su, Bai, and Yun families also wield considerable power.

Upon hearing their names, Zhang Wei's eyes lit up with realization as he connected the dots.

And then, there was Master Yanling, ranked 78th in the Sky List, purportedly lending support to both the Iron Syndicate and the Midnight Shadow Group.
