The next instant, Helian Jue felt an extremely dangerous aura suddenly lock onto him.
Before he could even think, his body's instincts sent chills down his spine.
The seemingly slender figure under the tree suddenly took a deep breath and made a move that almost made Helian Jue's eyes pop out.
Zi Xi walked a few steps to the thick willow tree where Helian Jue was hiding, bent down and stood up, her hands gripping the rough trunk like iron clamps.
"Get down here!!"
A clear shout, carrying an undeniable sense of power? Her arm muscles tensed instantly, her feet planted firmly on the ground, and her waist suddenly exerted force.
"Creak...creak..."
A terrifying sound, so loud it made your teeth ache, as if the tree roots were being forcibly shaken suddenly rang out.
The entire tree where Helian Jue was standing shook violently.
The leaves fell like a torrential rain, and the soil on the ground began to loosen and bulge.
With her seemingly impossible strength, she actually pulled the thick tree trunk out of the ground, bit by bit.
After all, the tree roots were too deeply entangled. Although it could not be completely uprooted, its terrifying appearance and the fierce posture of uprooting the weeping willow were enough to make any witness's heart tremble.
In particular, Helian Jue was shaken around in the tree like a leaf in a gale, and almost fell off.
"Hey! Stop! Stop! Miss Liu! Master Liu! Grandma! Show mercy!!"
"The tree is going to break! I'm going to fall!!"
He could no longer hide, clinging tightly to the violently shaking trunk, his voice trembling with fear as he screamed.
When people are in a hurry, they really forget that they can do light-body kung fu.
Seeing Helian Jue clinging to the tree trunk like a koala, a hint of a smile flashed in Zi Xi's eyes.
"I wondered which ignorant stray cat or dog it was, but it turns out to be the young master himself. Climbing so high... did you enjoy the view?"
Instead of letting go, she shook it with even more force, her tone mocking.
"Enjoy! Enjoy! It's great... oh no! It's not good! It's not good at all!"
"I'm coming down right now! I'll come down myself!"
Although Helian Jue felt ashamed, he was still afraid that if she did it again, she would really knock the tree down.
Begging for mercy looks better than falling flat on your face!
The male protagonist in this world is truly different every day, never repeating himself!
"The young master coveted my estate, and thinks he can take it over just because I said something wrong? There's no way it'll be that easy."
Zi Xi finally let go, but her beautiful eyes remained fixed on the monkey in the tree.
Before she finished speaking, she lightly leaped up with her toes on the ground, her body as nimble as a swallow. Using the tree trunk as leverage, she pushed off and instantly climbed to the height of the branch where Helian Jue was hiding.
Under Helian Jue's horrified gaze, her mud-covered yet remarkably steady hand shot out with lightning speed and grabbed his ear with pinpoint accuracy.
Ouch! That hurts! That hurts!
"You bastard!!"
"Am I your husband?! How dare you pull my ear like that?!"
Helian Jue let out a miserable howl, feeling as if his ears were about to be twisted off, yet he still couldn't resist taking advantage of the situation.
He, a prince, had never suffered such torture!
His dad gets his ears twisted all the time, okay?!
Zi Xi ignored his howling and held onto his ear tightly.
With her other hand, she deftly lifted and pushed him on the back, while landing lightly herself, using the momentum of her fall and the force from her hand.
"Get down!"
With a muffled thud, Helian Jue let out another cry of pain.
This esteemed Prince Jing was forcibly pulled down from the tree by Zi Xi in an extremely unseemly manner.
He then fell awkwardly into the soft mud on the ridge of the field, his brocade robe instantly covered with mud and grass clippings, and a few willow leaves stuck to his face.
