Chapter 143 I am your God!
The carved wooden door slammed shut behind him. Xiao Nanyan threw Xiyan's body with a big hand, and she fell onto the soft couch.
Afterwards, Xiao Nanyue approached her like a ghost in the dark night, his black robe falling down and covering her.
His fingertips lifted her veil, revealing her misty almond-shaped eyes. Her eyelashes trembled violently due to her tightness, like a butterfly trapped in a spider web.
"Today, Helian Feng knew you were Xuesha, but he still saved you on the cliff."
His voice was as cold as if it had been pulled out of an ice cellar, and his fingertips rubbed her lips fiercely:
"I'm afraid he has discovered your identity!"
The warm breath on her face made her feel cold all over.
Xiyan looked at the dangerous eyes so close to her, her pupils shrinking slightly. Her body was straight, her fingers digging deep into the quilt:
"Your Majesty, actually... Helian Feng has had some suspicions for a long time."
Her eyes were dodging, not daring to look at him:
"He's been fighting openly and covertly with you for the past few years, but the time hasn't come yet for us to tear open this veil. Even if we knew, we would pretend not to know..."
A cold light flashed in Xiao Nanyan's eyes:
"Over the years, Helian Feng has been cozying up to powerful officials in the court to isolate me. In secret, he has sent countless assassins to kill me. How many of their assassins have you killed for me over the years?"
Xiao Nanyan's five fingers clasped Xiyan's shoulders tightly like iron hoops, with such force that it seemed as if he was going to crush her shoulder blades:
"Especially you—Xura Xuesha. Countless of the prince's followers died at your hands. Helian Feng should have wanted to cut you into pieces to appease his hatred. But to my surprise, he actually showed you such compassion. Is it because he clearly knows the peerless beauty behind the mask?"
Xiao Nanyan curled his lips into a cold smile and threw the veil in his hand to the ground:
"This king has endured for eight years, and the time has finally come for me to strike back! As for you? Whether you like it or not, it was you who sold your soul to this king, and it was you who offered your body. This game has already begun, and you can't stop it just because you want to!"
Xiyan suddenly turned her head to avoid his hot breath, struggled to shrink back, and her back hit the carved bedpost heavily.
Her fingertips dug deep into her palms, her voice trembling but every word clear:
"I said I don't want to! You are about to marry the princess, why do you still want Xiyan trapped in that cage without seeing the sun? What you want is a chess piece that can help you ascend to a higher position, not a woman who always warms your bed! Xiyan is willing to go through fire and water for you, but she does not want to be someone else's concubine!"
Xiao Nanyan looked down at her stubborn little face and curled his lips slightly:
"If I don't marry her, will you be willing?"
Xiyan's eyelashes trembled violently. She looked directly into those playful eyes, her voice hoarse but firm:
"Even if the prince didn't marry her, he wouldn't have married me in a formal ceremony. Eight years ago, when the prince brought me back from Nanzhao, I knew I was just a pawn in your hands. I'm of humble status, I don't even know who my biological parents are, how could I be worthy of standing by your side?"
Her almond-shaped eyes were now covered with a layer of water, like a glass cup hit by frost and snow, shrouded in mist, and the corners of her eyes were red:
"With your great talent and vision, if you succeed one day, even ascending to the throne, you will definitely not want a lowly servant like me, stained with blood. Xiyan would rather die on the battlefield than share your favor with other women!"
Xiao Nanyan stared at those stubborn eyes, a cold sneer escaped from his throat, and pinched her jaw with his fingertips, lifting her face to eye level with him:
"What a shame! Do you think you have the right to say no?"
He leaned down, the oppressive feeling around him almost crushing her:
"Eight years ago, you knelt at my feet, plunged a dagger into your palm and swore an oath. From the moment the Red Loyalty Gu was planted in your body, your life and your soul were branded with my mark!"
His thumb rubbed her trembling lips vigorously, his eyes filled with an almost insane possessive desire:
"This king is your heaven! He is your only way to survive in this world. As for status, when this king ascends to the supreme throne, I will grant you a position. What else can you complain about?"
Xiyan turned her head to avoid his touch, her neck tensed into a fragile arc in his palm:
"But Xiyan, I never wanted a position. I just wanted to be free one day and live a clean life. I don't have to be a dead soldier who doesn't see the light of day anymore, and I don't have to watch..."
Her voice suddenly choked, and she stared at Xiao Nanyan with a seriousness she had never seen before:
"No need to watch your man sleep with another woman! What Xiyan wants is always to be with one person for the rest of our lives!"
