The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 752 - 749: Pretending

Due to Xia Zining’s limited strength, she couldn’t hear the conversation between Xiao Huiliang and Li Haojie at all, so she was particularly baffled by what Ye Chenfeng said, asking, "Ye Chenfeng, who’s this person bringing gold bars? You can’t possibly be thinking of robbing them, right?"

"The two people approaching from afar are disciples of the Tianshan Sect, no need for any more nonsense. Let me quickly run through my plan with you, you need to listen carefully, because one of them is as strong as I am, and if we slip up, I can escape very easily, but you...I’m afraid your situation would be very dangerous," Ye Chenfeng whispered.

"Ye Chenfeng, you..."

Ye Chenfeng directly interrupted Xia Zining’s words and kept speaking, "Here’s my plan: You and I will pretend to be a quarreling couple, and you’re a promiscuous woman. In a moment, we’ll pretend to fight and then separate, with you appearing desperate and running into the nearby woods. Those two men are highly interested in women; they’ll surely be drawn into the woods after you. Meanwhile, I will sneak in from the other side of the woods, and I assure you, not a hair on your head will be harmed."

"Ye Chenfeng, you’re the promiscuous one, your whole family is full of promiscuous women," Xia Zining said indignantly.

Seeing the two Tianshan Sect disciples approaching, Ye Chenfeng no longer had the time to placate Xia Zining. He completely concealed his strength and slipped into his acting role, cursing, "You shameless woman, tell me, how many men have you been with outside? Have you no sense of shame at all?"

After his tirade, Ye Chenfeng kept making meaningful glances at Xia Zining, who upon noticing the two Tianshan Sect disciples getting closer, thought to herself, "Fine, I’ll play along with this act. You dare accuse me of being a promiscuous woman?"

Xia Zining instantly got into character, her beautiful face showing a look of utter disdain, she said, "Is it my fault? You’re a useless man; you have to take a ridiculous amount of medicine every time before you come to my bed, yet you’re still so useless."

"Now you’re making your shamelessness sound reasonable? Don’t forget who it was that helped your family clear their debts, how can you treat me like this now? Why don’t you just go and die?" Ye Chenfeng yelled hoarsely. freewёbnoνel-com

"Fine, fine, fine, just death then? Even death would be better than staying with a loser like you." Saying so, Xia Zining stormed off toward the nearby woods, seemingly bent on seeking death.

"What a shameless bitch, you should have died long ago," Ye Chenfeng muttered after watching Xia Zining walk into the woods, without turning his head, he moved on.

Xiao Huiliang and Li Haojie, having witnessed "the couple’s quarrel" from the side, were internally scratching like a cat’s claws upon seeing the stunningly beautiful Xia Zining, making them itch unbearably—after all, they had just been discussing women!

Watching Ye Chenfeng, covered in mud, walk away, Li Haojie swallowed hard and said, "Brother Xiao, that woman is truly exceptional! I’ve never seen such a gorgeous woman before! If such a woman really killed herself, wouldn’t it be such a waste? There’s no rule from our sect about how long we are to stay out. How about we go into the woods and enjoy ourselves first? A woman as flirtatious as her surely won’t refuse us."

Persuaded by Li Haojie, Xiao Huiliang was indeed tempted. After pondering for a moment, he said, "Alright, Junior Brother Li, you keep watch outside for me. Once I’m done, we’ll switch."

Although Li Haojie was somewhat reluctant inside, he couldn’t refute as Xiao Huiliang was stronger and also his senior brother, so he said with a smile, "Brother Xiao, you go ahead with confidence. I’ll keep watch outside, and nothing untoward will happen."

"Then I’ll leave it to you, Junior Brother Li," Xiao Huiliang said, smiling as he walked into the woods.

Meanwhile, taking advantage of the moment Xiao Huiliang and Li Haojie were speaking, Ye Chenfeng snuck into the other side of the woods and swiftly employed the Turtle Breathing Technique, staying as silent as possible as he crept next to Xia Zining in a clump of bushes, waiting for the prey to take the bait.

As Ye Chenfeng anticipated, the first to enter the woods was Xiao Huiliang, who possessed Innate Peak strength. To Ye Chenfeng, taking down Xiao Huiliang meant that the other man would be of no challenge to him.

With her back to Xiao Huiliang, Xia Zining took out a rope from her person and tied it around a tree trunk, as if preparing to hang herself.

Xiao Huiliang, seeing Xia Zining’s actions, wore an impatient look on his face and said, "Little lady, why get angry over such a useless man? Why don’t you just follow me instead? I guarantee I can satisfy you."

With her back to Xiao Huiliang, Xia Zining turned around and asked, "Who are you?"

"I’m the man who can satisfy you. Have you ever tried doing it in the wild? Today, I can let you taste that experience." Indeed, Xia Zining’s beauty was so stunning that no man could resist her allure, especially not a beast like Xiao Huiliang.

Xia Zining felt a profound disgust toward Xiao Huiliang, but she knew this wasn’t the time to show her hand. If she slipped up now, she’d likely put herself in danger. Keeping her composure, she smiled and said, "You can satisfy me?"

"Yes, of course, don’t doubt my abilities," Xiao Huiliang hurriedly replied.

"Since my good-for-nothing husband is so useless, wouldn’t it be too easy on him if I just died like this? I need to live well," Xia Zining mused as if talking to herself, yet also as if making a point to Xiao Huiliang before her.

"Little lady, then let’s get started right away!" Xiao Huiliang prepared to undress.

And just as Xiao Huiliang’s guard was at its lowest, Ye Chenfeng quietly appeared behind him using the Turtle Breathing Technique, his right palm holding a silver needle.

Xiao Huiliang, instinctively feeling a chill on his back as he was undressing, whirled around only to be greeted by the cold sneer on Ye Chenfeng’s face. He realized he’d been tricked, but it was too late. As he turned, Ye Chenfeng’s palm shot the silver needle swiftly toward his throat.

Xiao Huiliang had no chance to evade. His skills were on par with Ye Chenfeng’s, but now that Ye Chenfeng had resorted to a sneak attack, Xiao Huiliang’s reaction was inevitably going to be a beat slower. He could only watch in horror as the silver needle pierced his throat.

A sharp pain in his throat, a speck of blood appeared on Xiao Huiliang’s neck, followed immediately by a difficulty breathing through his mouth. Clasping his neck with both hands, he stared deathly at Ye Chenfeng, his breath growing more rapid. He felt it was too suffocating to die like this.

He struggled vainly, but it was all to no avail. Xiao Huiliang’s breath grew weaker until it finally faded completely, and he fell to the ground.

Looking at the fallen Xiao Huiliang, who died with his eyes still open, Ye Chenfeng said, "You should be grateful to die so swiftly."

If Xiao Huiliang’s strength hadn’t reached the Innate Peak, Ye Chenfeng would have feared a twist in the situation if he hadn’t settled the matter from the start. He certainly wouldn’t have let Xiao Huiliang die so quickly.

"Ye Chenfeng, I swear I’ll never join you in such a deed again. You’re nothing but a shameless bastard," Xia Zining relaxed inwardly after seeing Ye Chenfeng appear in time to kill Xiao Huiliang, but she didn’t let Ye Chenfeng off with her words.

"Xia Zining, don’t rush. There’s still one more outside! And besides, do you want to end up sleeping on the streets later?" Ye Chenfeng took a pouch from Xiao Huiliang’s waist, which conspicuously contained five gold and five silver bars.

Ye Chenfeng, smiling, dangled a gold bar in front of Xia Zining.

Upon seeing the gold bar in Ye Chenfeng’s hand, Xia Zining puffed her cheeks and fell silent. (To be continued.
