Chapter 581 Successfully Seizing the Grass
"Do you have a grudge against the mayor of West City?" Li Rongsen asked him.
Xu Gongze smiled and said, "I'm looking for a good son-in-law for the village chief. He's chosen you and wants to marry his daughter to you. Why don't you happily accept it?"
At this time, the village chief also stopped and said to Li Rongsen, "We have long been interested in you, not to imprison you, but to become one of our family."
Li Rongsen sneered and said, "I already have a wife."
"The city lord has no destiny with you. She has her own destiny, and the news has long been spread everywhere, but you insist on forcing it." Xu Gongze said.
These words hit Li Rongsen hard, and he couldn't help but frown. But even so, he would not change his heart towards An Yan. Even if she couldn't be with him in the end, the worst that could happen was that she would be alone for the rest of her life, and she would never be with any other woman again. He said, "I'm forcing myself, what does it have to do with you? Isn't this considered forcing?"
These words made the woman in the room tremble in her heart. She didn't want to force it, and originally thought there was no need to be persistent, but now she had decided to get Li Rongsen first.
The village chief said, "You haven't even seen my daughter, so how do you know you won't like her?"
"As long as it's not her, I won't consider it at all." Li Rongsen said firmly. Then he thought about it and asked Xu Gongze: "So, you have planned it all along?"
"It was you who wanted to come here, so I didn't lie to you. There is indeed the Awakening Grass here." Xu Gongze said to him calmly, but he still lied to Li Rongsen and didn't tell him his true intention. He was not choosing a son-in-law for the village chief, he was just using this excuse. His master was Ouyang Mingxi, and he was following his orders to trap Li Rongsen here, and to keep him and An Yan on opposite sides forever.
The village chief said, "You want to wake up the magic grass, and here it is. Isn't it good for your strengths?"
"I'm not here to see the Awakening Grass, I'm here to take it back to save my life." Li Rongsen said.
"It doesn't matter. Whether there is the Awakening Grass or not will not affect the safety of the city lord. The city lord has her true love to save him. You are no longer necessary." Xu Gongze changed his usual gentle attitude. Every word he said was like a knife, cutting Li Rongsen's heart.
Li Rongsen felt a suffocating pain. He didn't want to argue with the two anymore and just said, "I'm going to take the Awakening Grass and leave today."
"If you can't take it, no one will give it to you." The village chief stroked his beard as he spoke, with an expression of determination. He added, "Mr. Li, you can stay here. There's no worries, no disasters, no illnesses, and everyone is immortal. Isn't that better than the outside world?"
"I don't want it." Li Rongsen refused again.
"Mr. Li." A woman ran out of the house. Her eyes seemed to be flashing with light. Although her appearance was not as good as An Yan's, she was also a rare beauty.
Li Rongsen frowned slightly, and at this time, he saw some people wearing cotton shirts slowly surrounding him.
These people were all villagers of this village. There were not many of them, only a few dozen people. They all looked at Li Rongsen with curiosity. Several women had surprise in their eyes and stared at him without moving their eyes. However, the men did not care.
"Mr. Li, I am the daughter of the village chief, my name is Taoer." Taoer moved closer to Li Rongsen. She wanted Li Rongsen to see her clearly, hoping that he would be moved by her appearance.
But it was obvious that Li Rongsen was indifferent. He only asked: "Is there anyone here willing to sell the Awakening Grass? I am willing to buy it at a high price."
"If you are willing to stay here, all of us women are willing to follow you." One of the women blurted out excitedly.
The village chief immediately sneered at her, "You are such a shameless woman. This is my son-in-law, my daughter's only man. Who do you think you are? Be careful or I'll throw you out."
The woman immediately fell silent, not daring to say another word, which also aroused the dissatisfaction of many men.
The village chief then said to Li Rongsen, "Xiao Xu just said that your city lord will be fine. She and you are not meant to be together. You will have to let her go sooner or later. It's better for you to stay here."
Li Rongsen's patience was limited, and he clearly felt something running around in his body, like a stream of true energy, which aroused his deepest sense of disgust and inhuman dark indifference.
Xu Gongze had already noticed that Li Rongsen had changed. His eyes were different from before. He looked like a demon that was not to be looked at. His disdainful arrogance exuded an extremely cold murderous aura.
Li Rongsen stretched out his hand to suck Tao'er over, tightly pinched her neck with his right hand, and then said coldly to the village chief: "If you don't want to see your daughter die, hand over a plant of Xinghuan Grass, otherwise don't blame me for being merciless." After he finished speaking, he increased the strength of his hands.
Tao'er's face began to turn red, and her legs began to leave the ground. She kicked and struggled hard, but she was powerless.
The village chief was frightened and wanted to wave at Li Rongsen immediately.
However, he was knocked to the ground by Li Rongsen's waving sleeves, and even spat out a mouthful of blood. He immediately said: "Everyone, come together and catch him!"
When the villagers heard this, they all rushed forward to beat Li Rongsen.
But they couldn't hurt Li Rongsen at all, and were knocked to the ground by his waving sleeves.
The village chief was surprised. He realized that the man's energy was dozens of times stronger than before. He was not someone to be trifled with. He quickly said, "Let her go. Don't hurt my daughter. Please."
"Then you hand over a plant of Awakening Grass, otherwise I will kill everyone here. From now on, this place will no longer be called a paradise, but a graveyard for the dead." Li Rongsen's voice was cold and low, as if it came from the underworld.
Xu Gongze also began to get scared. He didn't want to die, but he had to remind Li Rongsen, saying, "Even if you get it, you may not be able to get out. The way in has been blocked, and a new barrier has been set up."
Li Rongsen ignored him and just looked at the people around him. They all had fear on their faces.
The village chief was the first to conjure up a plant of Awakening Grass and pushed it towards Li Rongsen, saying, "Please let my daughter go. I beg you!"
Tao'er was almost suffocating and her feet were no longer moving.
Li Rongsen just let go of his hand at this time, and saw Tao'er falling to the ground like an object, and the village chief quickly ran over to hug her, pinched her Ren Zhong, and gave her breathing.
Xu Gongze frowned and said to Li Rongsen, "Don't ask me. I can't take you out. I don't know how to get out either. Ask the village chief!"
"Do I need to ask?" Li Rongsen asked him back coldly, and then looked around with his eyes, which scraped across everyone's face like an ice knife.
He asked everyone to hand over their Awakening Grass and push them all towards Li Rongsen.
Li Rongsen collected them all, clenched his fists and punched the ground, instantly causing an earthquake-like vibration here, and the ground seemed to be able to break into pieces at any time.
Xu Gongze couldn't stand steadily, but fortunately he held onto a wall, but found that the wall also collapsed, and he fell to the ground with the wall. He didn't expect that this man could be so terrifying and have such great energy to open the barrier.
Li Rongsen rushed out of the barrier like a gust of wind and disappeared without a trace.
The village chief was still looking at Tao'er, crying and shouting, "He almost killed my daughter. He is a devil!"
Everyone around was trembling with fear. Although they cursed the village chief in their hearts, they did not dare to point it out to his face.
Fortunately, Tao'er was slowly regaining her breath. She came to and said, "I'm not dead yet."
