Chapter 31: Fear
Chapter 31: Fear
night.
The night remained deep.
Lin Xian'er lay on the cold ground, her beautiful face red and swollen, blood flowing from the corner of her mouth.
But she ignored the pain; her eyes were filled with terror.
It's not that she's never been hit by men; on the contrary, she sometimes willingly lets others hit her.
But it was precisely because of this that she was able to sense that the man in front of her was not playing with her at all!
Xue Bufeng said calmly:
"Were you feeling smug just now, smug that you finally seduced me? Like you had all the men in the world under your control, that no one could escape your grasp?"
"Since you can't bear to see those people die one after another for you, why don't you just tell them that you are the Plum Blossom Thief?"
These few words caused Lin Xian'er, who was already terrified, to tremble violently, as if struck by lightning!
She lay there, completely unable to move.
At this moment, in her eyes, Xue Bufu was the most terrifying existence.
She always considered herself a very clever woman, clever enough to manipulate all the men in the world.
Even the Money Gang, which has risen to prominence in recent years, and its leader, Shangguan Jin Hong, who is incredibly powerful, may not even know that she is the Plum Blossom Thief.
But this man in front of me...
A young master of a demonic sect who had just entered the pass, who hadn't even set foot in the Central Plains yet already knew she was the Plum Blossom Thief?
Is the evil cult beyond the Great Wall really this terrifying?
Xue Bufeng simply straightened his clothes and looked down at her.
"Don't you understand?"
"Don't you understand what I've done?"
Lin Xian'er, of course, did not understand.
She bit her lower lip so hard it almost bled, and for the first time, her beautiful face lost its air of complete control. Her full breasts heaved violently, replaced by fear.
Xue Bufeng remained unperturbed, continuing to sit there watching her like a cat toying with a mouse, and smiled slightly.
"Since you know I am the young leader of the Demonic Sect beyond the Great Wall, how come you don't know my temperament?"
"I dislike being controlled by others the most."
"I'll make her do what others are unwilling to do."
"I'll prevent her from doing what she wants to do."
"You think you can seduce me, but I'm not going to let you have your way. Seeing your surprised look is quite a bit of fun for me."
Lin Xian'er was completely stunned.
Under the moonlight, her breathtakingly perfect body began to tremble even more violently.
She rarely has anyone she's afraid of.
But now Xue Bufu definitely counts as one.
It was simply because she had almost never met someone like Xue Bufeng.
Perhaps there were such people, but none of them possessed the terrifying strength of Xue Bufu.
"you……"
She looked at Xue Bufeng with terrified eyes, and finally spoke. Her voice trembled slightly with extreme astonishment, but she still tried her best to maintain a charming and sweet demeanor, and even managed a forced smile:
"You...so you like playing this kind of game...you should have said so earlier. I...I'll do whatever you want. I was meant to be yours. From the moment I met you, I was determined to follow you."
She even wanted to crawl to Xue Bufu's feet immediately.
But Xue Bufeng gently kicked her away, stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the moonlight outside with his hands behind his back.
You should actually feel lucky.
"Because you are the real Plum Blossom Thief, I should have killed you immediately and taken the large reward, but you didn't die. Do you know why?"
The moment Xue Bufeng turned around, Lin Xian'er was trembling with anger, her stunningly beautiful face instantly contorted.
Shame, anger, the humiliation of being mocked...
A mix of emotions made her almost want to immediately erupt and tear this hateful man to shreds with her Azure Demon Hand!
But she didn't move in the end.
Because it is nothing but a vain fantasy.
She knew that the dark blue demonic hand, gleaming dangerously in the moonlight, would not only fail to kill the person before her, but would also cost her her life.
She stared intently at Xue Bufeng, and finally, as if she had used all her strength, she forcefully suppressed the surging murderous intent and anger.
She bent down, enduring the pain on her face, and picked up the black robe from the ground. Her movements still carried a profound elegance, but they were noticeably stiffer.
She wrapped the black robe around her perfect body again and tied the sash.
Then she spoke again.
Her voice softened again, and her face still held a captivating smile, as if the woman with the distorted expression just moments before wasn't her at all.
"Xue Lang, tell me, I'll listen to whatever you say."
Xue Bufeng turned around with a smile, as if he had been waiting for her to control her emotions:
"According to the rumors in the martial arts world, the Plum Blossom Thief was originally a notorious thief who committed all sorts of evil deeds, including rape and robbery. However, he disappeared without a trace thirty years ago. Perhaps he changed his name or he is already dead. After all, judging from his age, he must be at least seventy years old now."
Lin Xian'er immediately followed up softly, "Yes..."
Xue Bufu said:
"But now the Plum Blossom Thief has not only returned to the martial arts world, but has also committed seventy or eighty major crimes in just seven or eight months. This has shaken the martial arts world. Anyone with a little wealth or a beautiful woman in their family is in danger. In fact, nearly a hundred famous sects have joined together to set aside 10% of their assets as a bounty for the Plum Blossom Thief."
"But I think this plum blossom thief is incredibly stupid."
"Even if a seventy-year-old man is highly skilled in martial arts and still very interested in this matter, how could he possibly travel day and night throughout the martial arts world and commit seventy or eighty major crimes in a row?"
"So, why do you think that is?"
Lin Xian'er looked at him tenderly from the side, her appearance exactly like that of a virtuous wife and loving mother, as if nothing had happened.
Anyone who sees Lin Xian'er like this would find it hard to connect her with the lewd woman from just moments ago.
If she remained like this her whole life, she would surely be the perfect wife and mother that every man in the world would want to marry immediately and cherish.
She said softly:
"Perhaps it's because the Plum Blossom Thief isn't just one person, or maybe they're a group... Xue Lang is truly exceptionally intelligent, and Xian'er admires him more and more."
Xue Bufeng smiled, walked up to her, and patted her head like he was petting a puppy.
"Good boy, you've finally learned to be a good boy in front of me."
Lin Xian'er smiled too, gently rubbing her other smooth, fair cheek against his hand, and even kissing his fingers.
"Xian'er is very well-behaved. Xian'er is a good child now. She answers whatever Xue Lang asks."
Xue Bufeng slowly said, "Now you understand why I didn't kill you?"
Lin Xian'er laughed and said, "Is it because Xue Lang has a noble heart and wants to kill all the Plum Blossom Thieves? To completely eradicate these scourges. And those Plum Blossom Thieves... Xian'er does recognize them all, and she can certainly make them all die under Xue Lang's blade."
Xue Bufeng said, "Wrong."
Lin Xian'er's smile froze.
Xue Bufu said leisurely:
"I just want to make a name for myself in the martial arts world. I'll kill the Plum Blossom Thief that others can't. I, Xue Bufu, can do what others can't. But no one will believe that you are the Plum Blossom Thief. If you die, other Plum Blossom Thieves can still commit crimes in the martial arts world. Killing you is a losing proposition for me."
Lin Xian'er understood his meaning, and her smile returned:
"Yes... Xue Lang is the young leader of the Demonic Sect, how could he be like those hypocrites? Xian'er likes Xue Lang's straightforwardness. As long as Xue Lang gives the order, Xian'er will naturally do her best to help Xue Lang become famous in the martial arts world."
"Those plum blossom thieves are nothing more than stepping stones for Xue Lang."
Xue Bufeng sat back down in his chair.
Lin Xian'er followed, squatting beside him like a docile kitten, gazing at him expectantly, waiting for him to continue.
Because she could tell that Xue Bufeng still had something to say.
