Chapter 32 The Ancient Iron Tree Blooms



Behind him, Jingzhe stared dumbfounded at Leng Ye's dashing and resolute back, as if struck by lightning, unable to recover for a long time.

He originally thought that Xuan Fengqian, who was always talkative, was going to be severely taught a lesson by Leng Ye again.

Unexpectedly, Leng Ye, who was saying he was going to teach her a lesson, suddenly pulled her into his arms!

"How wonderful. The ancient iron tree has actually blossomed in the dead of winter."

Jingzhe was overjoyed, hoping that the gentle breeze could soothe the icy, frosty night.

Leng Ye never expected that his casual gesture would lead Jingzhe to imagine an extraordinary romance.

He just felt it was more convenient to hold, that's all.

But for some reason, when he realized that the woman in his arms was so nervous that she forgot to breathe, his anger dissipated in an instant.

"Take a breath."

Leng Ye suppressed his laughter, his face as cold and unyielding as an iceberg, his voice and expression particularly indifferent.

"ah?"

Xuan Fengqian was pondering how to escape Leng Ye's grasp when she suddenly noticed him staring at her lecherously, and instinctively clutched her chest.

Leng Ye was exasperated and originally didn't intend to pay any attention to her.

Seeing her face flushed red from holding her breath, she finally couldn't help but free one hand and slap her rosy cheek with a "smack," "Take a breath!"

"hiss--"

Xuan Fengqian was caught off guard and was slapped by Leng Ye, leaving him dizzy and disoriented.

To make matters worse, the wound on her face that had just clotted started bleeding again after he hit her like that.

"Xuan Fengqian, are you made of water? How come you break at the slightest touch!" Leng Ye looked at the bright red bloodstains on her cheek and felt extremely angry.

He didn't use any force; he was just trying to be kind and remind her to breathe in time.

Unexpectedly, his good intentions backfired.

"Why are you so angry? I'm the one who got hit and I'm the one who got hurt. What does it have to do with you?" Xuan Fengqian looked at the sullen Leng Ye with confusion.

"How can it be alright? If you're so fragile, how can I possibly have any fun?"

"..."

Xuanfeng remained silent.

She was a living, breathing person, yet he treated her like a plaything; that was going too far.

After pondering for a moment, Xuan Fengqian finally spoke nervously, "Demon Lord, what exactly do you want to do?"

"Didn't you say 'a beating is a sign of affection, scolding is a sign of love'? Since you love me so much, I should return the favor."

"My father is coming soon! Don't do anything reckless." Xuan Fengqian's eyelids twitched wildly as he timidly said.

Leng Ye completely ignored the threat in Xuan Feng's words and scoffed, "What do you mean by 'reckless'? Since you have sworn brotherhood with me, you are nominally my woman. Whatever I want to do is perfectly reasonable."

"You already have a sister, yet you still have your eyes on me. Isn't this like eating what's in your bowl while eyeing what's in the pot?"

"Ning'er is meant to be pampered, while you're just for amusement. How can you call them the same?"

"The problem is, I don't want to be amused by you!" Xuan Fengqian gritted her teeth in anger.

"It's not up to you."

Leng Ye kicked open the half-closed door of the Soul Devouring Palace and carried the terrified Xuan Fengqian into the inner room.

"You cheated on your sister on the very first day of your marriage, and this is what you call 'spoiling'?"

"Cheating? Xuan Fengqian, aren't you overestimating yourself?"

Leng Ye casually tossed Xuan Fengqian onto the couch, then turned her over so she was lying face down on his lap like a salted fish.

"No, don't..."

Xuan Fengqian's heart pounded like a drum, and she was so nervous that her body stiffened and she could hardly move.

In that critical moment, the vivid and cruel dream suddenly flashed through her mind.

The cold night in his dream was violent and cruel. However, his anger wasn't due to her virginity; he simply disliked being stained with blood, finding it unlucky...

If that's the case, perhaps she could have escaped this predicament if she had confessed to him beforehand...

After a moment of hesitation, she suddenly turned her head, intending to bargain with Leng Ye, "Demon Lord, if I confess something to you, can you spare my life?"
