The King of Hell's Genius Pampered Wife-Chapter 1730: Anger

However, accustomed to being indifferent over the years, Ji Mingyu seemed to have shown no reaction. He just watched the girl cry with a cold and heartless gaze.

A slight warmth suddenly came from her fingers. Xi Yue was stunned for a moment, and then she tightened her grip on the pagoda fruit hidden in her clothes.

The pagoda fruit had transformed, different from the original green seed it once was.

The surface had turned purple with faint golden runes, making it resemble a purple-gold bead more than the seed it initially was.

According to Little Red Bird, this was the result of the first level of the pagoda power being imbued. Soon, the second level of the pagoda power would begin to be stored. Once the second level of the pagoda power was full and the wood source’s second level was unlocked, she could attempt to resurrect people like Gu Liufeng and Xi Jia who had incomplete souls and bodies.

Yes, Nangong Yu did not leave me. Little Egg, Xiao Chi, Little Golden Dragon, Gu Liufeng… none of them left. I just needed more time to get them back one by one.

My beloved would one day return to my side. I shouldn’t succumb to despair or sorrow, nor should I be misled by illusory and fleeting dreams.

After composing herself, Xi Yue took a deep breath and wiped away the tears on her face. Her expression regained its usual calm and composure.

Her gaze once again fell on the man in front of her. This time, she could assess him with a calm mind.

This man wore a mask, but it wasn’t an ordinary material mask. Instead, there was a layer of spiritual power shrouding his face, allowing one to see his eyes and expressions clearly, yet obscuring his true features.

In stature and voice, this man really resembled Nangong Yu quite closely, but she could spot their differences upon closer observation.

For example, this man’s cultivation level was extremely high.

So high that when Xi Yue, as usual, gathered her spiritual power in her eyes to investigate the other person, an inexplicable sense of fear surged in her heart. She immediately withdrew the spiritual power from her eyes and did not dare to probe any further.

Xi Yue cleared her throat and asked, “May I know if it was you who saved me?”

Ji Mingyu narrowed his eyes slightly. A cold light flashed in his eyes.

Seeing that the man didn’t respond and his expression remained terrifyingly cold, Xi Yue felt somewhat intimidated and didn’t want to stay in the same place with him. Moreover, she still had no idea if Little Red Bird and Weizhi were safe. It would be best to leave as soon as possible.

“Thank you for saving your life.” Xi Yue expressed her sincere gratitude. “If there’s nothing else, I won’t impose any further. Until we meet again.”

Having said that, Xi Yue turned and walked toward the exit.

As for repaying the favor, she thought with a wry smile. Apart from the treasures she possessed that were too precious to give away, the total value of everything else she had didn’t even compare to someone else’s single lotus flower. How could she even consider offering repayment?

However, before Xi Yue could take a step further, a man’s deep and cold voice came from behind, “Do I allow you to leave?”

Xi Yue’s steps halted, and she turned to look at the other person, her eyes showing a hint of surprise, “May I ask, is there anything else you need?”

“I should be the one to ask this question!”

Ji Mingyu slowly approached her. His eyes seemingly flashed with icy, sharp swords, piercing straight toward her, “You trespassed into my Abyss Divine Palace without permission, and then left just as soon as you said you wanted to? What do you think my Abyss Divine Palace is?”

Ji Mingyu couldn’t explain what the anger welling up in his heart was.

Anger, jealousy, displeasure – this girl, who was initially so ecstatic upon seeing him, turned to sadness and disappointment in the blink of an eye.
