Eternal Blood Emperor-Chapter 521: When Love Runs Deep

Hearing what Saint Child Yanghui said, Xiao Ningyue finally fully understood that the other party was trying to take advantage of her.

No wonder Elder Xuan Li had reminded her earlier to be cautious of Saint Child Yanghui.

She just hadn’t expected him to lay his cards on the table so quickly.

"Then you’ve found the wrong person, goodbye."

Knowing Saint Child Yanghui’s true intentions, Xiao Ningyue was unwilling to continue talking to him. With a cold tone, she spoke and then turned around, heading out of the pavilion.

"Wait."

Seeing Xiao Ningyue treat him with such indifference, although Saint Child Yanghui still wore a smile on his face, it was much colder than before.

He trembled slightly, then immediately appeared in front of Xiao Ningyue, blocking her path.

"Is there something else?"

Xiao Ningyue frowned and stared coldly at Saint Child Yanghui, speaking.

"You won’t listen to me finish?"

Saint Child Yanghui’s eyes were fixed on Xiao Ningyue as he spoke.

"I don’t want to listen."

Xiao Ningyue replied indifferently.

"Ningyue, you should know that with my status, power, and looks, just by opening my mouth, countless Saintesses from the Sacred Domain and top-tier forces, and even the daughters of princes, would come to me without hesitation."

Hearing this, the expression on Saint Child Yanghui’s face completely cooled down as he spoke in a deep voice.

"Then you should seek them out, why bother with me."

Xiao Ningyue said coldly to Saint Child Yanghui: "Also, don’t call me Ningyue anymore, our relationship doesn’t warrant it."

After speaking, her body suddenly flickered, darting out of the pavilion.

"Such an ungrateful woman."

Seeing Xiao Ningyue disregard him so, Saint Child Yanghui’s face turned livid with anger, letting out a cold snort.

"Brother, I told you long ago, the relationship between this woman and Wang Ruoxie is very unusual; they might even be lovers."

Saintess Qing Ning said, her eyes showing a hint of curiosity.

"Hmph, regardless of their relationship, any woman I set my eyes on won’t escape my grasp."

Hearing Saintess Qing Ning’s words, Saint Child Yanghui’s face grew darker, his voice stern.

"Give her one more chance. If she still doesn’t appreciate it next time, don’t blame me for using force."

There was a cold glint in Saint Child Yanghui’s eyes as he spoke coldly: "As for Wang Ruoxie, if he had agreed to join Hidden Dragon Hall just now, maybe I would have spared his life, but since he disrespects me, I can’t be blamed."

"An Qi, make the arrangements. I want this man’s life taken in the shortest time possible."

As Saint Child Yanghui’s voice fell, a shadow in black appeared suddenly.

"Yes, Your Highness."

The shadow spoke in a cold voice before merging back into the darkness, disappearing entirely, as if never there.

"Brother, you wouldn’t really kill him in the Saint Institute, would you?"

Saintess Qing Ning’s gaze was fixed on Saint Child Yanghui as she spoke: "You must know, the Dean of the Divine Martial Saint Institute is that person. Even our father is extremely wary of him. If he finds out you kill a student in the Institute, even father might not be able to save you."

"Don’t worry, I will neither personally act nor leave any trace. Even if that person investigates, they won’t find anything."

A cold smile flashed in Saint Child Yanghui’s eyes as he said: "Besides, I trust An Qi’s ways. He knows when to act and when not to, and even if he fails, he won’t leave any trace, making it impossible to connect back to me."

"I hope so."

Saintess Qing Ning sighed gently as she spoke.

For some reason, she had a faint feeling in her heart that this time her brother might make an irreversible mistake because of a woman.

...

"Ningyue, are you alright?"

Seeing Xiao Ningyue come down from the pavilion with an unpleasant expression, Wang Ruoxie’s eyes narrowed slightly before he asked.

"Saint Child Yanghui showed up."

Xiao Ningyue said.

"I didn’t expect him to lose patience so quickly."

Laughing mockingly, Wang Ruoxie responded upon hearing Xiao Ningyue say Saint Child Yanghui showed up.

As soon as Xiao Ningyue mentioned Saint Child Yanghui, Wang Ruoxie immediately guessed what had transpired in the pavilion.

"You knew he had this intention all along?"

Hearing Wang Ruoxie’s words, Xiao Ningyue was slightly surprised and asked.

"Sort of."

Wang Ruoxie smiled faintly and replied.

When Ancestor Xuan Li had warned Xiao Ningyue to be cautious of Saint Child Yanghui, he had already guessed the intent behind it.

"Since you knew, why didn’t you warn me?"

Xiao Ningyue gave Wang Ruoxie a sideways glance and said, annoyed.

"You’re so beautiful, even if I had warned you, it wouldn’t stop these lustful people like Saint Child Yanghui."

Wang Ruoxie said with a chuckle.

Of course, this was just a playful joke.

In fact, the reason he hadn’t warned Xiao Ningyue was that he thought it unnecessary. As long as he was around, no one could harm Xiao Ningyue, not even someone like Saint Child Yanghui.

"Are you one of those lustful people too?"

Hearing this, Xiao Ningyue blushed slightly and asked with her eyes sparkling.

"What do you think?"

Wang Ruoxie was slightly taken aback by the question, then gave her a playful smile.

"Hmph, you’re just a fool."

Feeling her face turn crimson under Wang Ruoxie’s gaze, Xiao Ningyue snorted lightly.

"Is that so..."

Wang Ruoxie’s eyes locked onto Xiao Ningyue’s, and then he slowly leaned forward.

"You... what are you doing?"

Watching Wang Ruoxie’s handsome face draw nearer and nearer, Xiao Ningyue’s heart beat faster, causing her breath to become quick and shallow.

Her face turned even more crimson, as if instinctively sensing what was about to happen, she closed her beautiful eyes.

"This fool, could he possibly be thinking of..."

Xiao Ningyue thought nervously.

Then, she suddenly felt a tightness as she was enveloped in his embrace.

At that moment, her heart seemed to stop beating, and before she could exclaim, her lips were sealed.

Cool, yet warm...

Right then, Xiao Ningyue seemed to forget how to breathe, forget how to think, completely immersed in this long-awaited moment.

Wang Ruoxie felt the same; this moment seemed eternal.

The hearts of both seemed to have completely melted.

After a while, their lips parted, yet they continued to gaze at each other with deep affection.

"Sorry for making you wait so long."

Wang Ruoxie gently caressed her exquisite face, whispering softly.

"Even if it takes longer, it’s worth it."

Xiao Ningyue smiled radiantly, her eyes filled with happiness, and replied softly.

"Rest assured, no one will take you away from me."

Wang Ruoxie spoke earnestly.

"I believe you."

Xiao Ningyue nodded with a smile.

"Tsk tsk... two shameless people, being so affectionate in broad daylight, truly shameless."

At this moment, a mocking voice interrupted.

Both frowned slightly upon hearing it, then turned to look at the source of the voice.
