Chapter 5: 1.005 Unforgivable

Shao Kang'an didn't see the gadfly needles held between Lie Yan's fingers at all; he even mistakenly thought that Shao Furong's hand had been repelled by the spiritual aura emitted by Lie Yan.

"Bad guy!" Doubao, huddling in Huo'er's arms, instantly bristled and shouted indignantly, "Robbing Mother, bullying Mother, bad guy!"

"Doubao, spray her!" Little Fatty pointed a wing forward, his movement quite handsome and powerful!

Doubao took a sudden, deep breath, her round little belly swelling up. In the next second, she let out a "pfft" and spat out a thin cloud of mist that quickly dissipated in the air, leaving behind only a few stray droplets of saliva that bounced onto Shao Furong's face, causing the woman's expression to change instantly.

Huo'er reached out a small, jade-white hand, slapped his forehead with a "pa," and opened his mouth, saying, "Oh no, oh no, Doubao's Ice Arrow isn't working again."

Doubao's round eyes blinked as she looked at Huo'er pitifully, "Doubao hungry."

Although Shao Furong had only been sprayed with a few droplets of saliva, for the Third Miss of the Shao family of Pengcheng, it was an insult as vast as the heavens and earth. When had she, the Third Miss of the Shao family, ever been sprayed with saliva by anyone?

Everyone who saw the Third Miss of the Shao family treated her with high regard, serving and flattering her with care. These few commoners before her truly had the audacity of dogs!

Shao Furong was so angry that smoke seemed to rise from her head. She pushed her elder brother, Shao Kang'an, aside with one hand, her eyes dyed with fury. "A few low-class commoners actually dare to be disrespectful to me? I see you all are tired of living!"

She suddenly raised both hands, waving her palms upward, and shouted angrily, "Qinghong Sword, unsheathe!"

The sharp sword flew out from behind her like a solitary moon, its tip pointing "swish" toward Lie Yan and Huo'er, diving toward the mother and son with an unstoppable momentum.

Killing a few commoners was as easy as stepping on a few stink bugs!

"Bastard! Nonsense!" Lie Yan's expression tightened, and she grew furious.

At first, she had thought this woman was merely spoiled by her family and making unreasonable demands, so Lie Yan hadn't wanted to bother with her. Unexpectedly, she wasn't just spoiled; she was spoiled into being tyrannical and unscrupulous, actually daring to strike at her Huo'er. Unforgivable!

Lie Yan held Huo'er and quickly retreated. Several specially made gadfly needles flew from between her fingertips with several "chi-chi" sounds, barely managing to deflect the charging Qinghong Sword to the side.

Following that, she reached into the cloth pouch at her waist, took out three Thunderbolt Thunderfire Bombs, and flicked them out with fast and tricky fingerwork.

Then came three loud "boom boom boom" explosions.

Dust and smoke instantly filled the surroundings. Lie Yan patted Huo'er's little head and let him go, letting him hide in a safe place.

Only then did she throw herself toward the thick smoke, tossing out a five-clawed chain made of fine iron.

With a "shua" sound, the five-clawed chain entangled the Qinghong Sword in mid-air, and the two forces engaged in a tug-of-war, pulling back and forth.

Lie Yan let out a cold laugh. Swinging the chain, she flung the Qinghong Sword directly toward Shao Furong deep within the smoke.

The sword tip pierced the flesh with a "puchi" sound, followed immediately by the woman's sharp, ear-piercing wail.

"Bastard! Stop right there! Let's talk this through slowly!" Shao Kang'an shouted urgently through the thick fog. "Do not act on impulse! Miss, don't blame me for not warning you beforehand—provoking our Pengcheng Shao family is not something you can afford!"

"Big brother, why are you still wasting words with her? I'm dying of pain! Hurry up and catch her! I want to cut this damn wench into a thousand pieces, to mince her into ten thousand fragments!" Shao Furong found it unbelievable that she, a female cultivator of the fifth-level Houtian Realm, could actually be taken down by a "commoner." It was truly absurd!

Seeing no sign of repentance, Lie Yan's eyes darkened. She let out a cold laugh; in that case, she shouldn't be blamed for being ruthless!
