Chapter 3: 003: What Pile of Shit Produced This Dung Beetle?

003: What kind of pile of shit produced such a dung beetle? He grit his teeth, his expression darkening. Damn that Gong Ruhua, how dare she use drugs on him! Just thinking about how she had straddled him and even groped his chest earlier made him gnash his teeth in nausea! Simply snapping her neck would be far too easy for her!

His intuition told him that this woman bore him no ill will. But she had witnessed that previous scene, and to him, it was a humiliation.

This woman could not be allowed to live!

He narrowed his eyes as true qi condensed in his palm. Before he could even strike, he saw the woman scramble up, rolling and crawling as she broke into a run!

A bloodthirsty, cold smirk curled at the corner of his mouth. He retracted his palm wind, leaped forward, and gave chase.

"Help! Help! Help me!" Sheng Luo felt her life was in unprecedented danger. She screamed for help with all her might as she ran.

In fact, during that moment when the handsome man was dazing off, she had already scanned her surroundings. Heavens, it was broad daylight now, but despite being in the wilderness, this terrain was definitely not the mountain behind her house.

So where was this? She had no idea. In this desolate wilderness, she knew that even if she screamed until her throat burst, no one would likely appear to save her, but right now, no one could stop her from making a scene!

Feeling a chilling aura closing in behind her, Sheng Luo trembled all over, her heart leaping into her throat. Without even looking back, she grabbed a handful of stones from the ground and threw them forcefully behind her, then bolted even faster with her eyes squeezed shut, running as if she were ready to face death!

In moments of crisis, human explosive power is limitless. After running several hundred meters, Sheng Luo actually managed not to be caught by the handsome man behind her!

Until—*thud*—she slammed into a soft body and was bounced back to the ground, her head landing right at the feet of the man chasing her.

The woman's teeth chattered. Lying on her back, she trembled with pain. She was dead, she was truly dead!

She managed to lift the corners of her eyes. Her gaze traveled from her pant legs up to the pure white robes, and what she saw was a face that was excessively beautiful and bewitching, yet cold and wickedly charming. And also...

That faint, almost imperceptible trace of a contemptuous smirk on the handsome man's lips!

"You damn wench! How dare you collide with our Second Palace Master! It seems you don't want to live!"

This arrogant female voice made Sheng Luo want to roll her eyes on the spot! What kind of pile of shit produced such a dung beetle! She was simply too obnoxious!

"Hong'er, step back. In the presence of the Sovereign, how dare you speak!" A soft, charming voice rang out lightly. That flirtatious, sultry tone made Sheng Luo unable to help but shudder.

Biting her lip hard, she looked up. Even if she died today, she had to see what kind of person possessed a voice that gave her such goosebumps!

With just one glance, Sheng Luo cursed the heavens. Dammit! Another beauty, and a "grandeur beauty" backed by a retinue!

Sheng Luo's shivering, of course, did not escape the notice of Ming Zun, who had been looking down at her the whole time. He raised an eyebrow and planted a foot firmly on Sheng Luo's chest. The force was so great that it slammed her head, which she had just slightly lifted, back down to the ground, making a loud *thud* when the back of her head hit the earth.

"Handsome guy! Have mercy! Please, go easy, go easy!" The pain in her chest made her feel like she was about to vomit blood! This man was so fierce and overflowing with dominance that she didn't dare call him "handsome man" anymore; she settled for "handsome guy" out of necessity.

"You aren't much of a runner. Did you think this Seat couldn't catch you?" Ming Zun said coldly. The drugs in his body made it almost impossible for him to exert his power right now, but even so, this woman was far too good at running.

"How can you say that! If I could outrun a handsome guy like you, would I be stepped on under your feet!" Dammit, if she hadn't been knocked back by that obnoxious woman, how could you have caught me so easily!

"Is that so? Then this Seat will have no objection if I cripple these two legs of yours right now!" As he spoke, he actually condensed true qi and raised a hand-chop.
