Chapter 145: Too Vicious!

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Startled, Jing Feng broke out in a cold sweat.

...

“Miss Gu, your words are too vicious!”

Without warning, Feng Tianlan reached out, gripping Gu Qingluan’s chin, his eyes narrowing as his face approached hers. “Did you insult me?”

An overwhelming aura of danger enveloped her.

The confined space added to the suffocating sensation.

Gu Qingluan’s breath hitched, and she pushed his face away with her hand. “I’m just speaking the truth! You can talk without resorting to violence. Are you trying to take advantage of me? You lecher!”

The fingers clamped on her chin suddenly tightened.

Gu Qingluan couldn’t help but cry out in pain.

“Say it again. You cannot earn my respect!” Feng Tianlan warned in a deep, grave tone.

Gu Qingluan kneeled down and thrust her knee toward him.

Feng Tianlan raised his leg to block.

She aimed her fingertips, clenching a silver needle, toward his chest.

His hand effortlessly intercepted it.

They engaged in a brief exchange of moves, lasting only a few breaths.

Contempt gleamed in the man’s eyes.

As if he was mocking her feebleness.

“Likewise! There’s no chance I would ever pay attention to someone like you!” Gu Qingluan’s eyes blazed with fire. Though she remained composed on the inside, she silently counted in her mind.

One!

Two!

Three!

Suddenly, she exerted force, breaking free from the man’s grip and striking him back with her palm.

Feng Tianlan staggered back several steps, colliding with the doorframe.

“Master?” Jing Feng looked at him in astonishment.

Did Miss Gu actually push the master back?

Could it be that the master had finally come to his senses and started showing some consideration for her?

“How dare you use poison!” Feng Tianlan’s face darkened, surrounded by a surge of killing intent.

Poison?

Someone was able to poison him right under his nose, and they succeeded?

“All is fair in war. You can bully the weak, so why can’t I use poison?” Gu Qingluan touched her jaw, still throbbing with pain, a triumphant glint in her eyes.

Ever since she discovered that the scoundrel’s strength far surpassed hers, she specially concocted this poison—a colorless and odorless substance. Merely contacting the skin would allow it to seep into the body, rendering the person weak and robbing them of their arcane power.

Even a Revered One wouldn’t be able to defend against it!

But this man was too formidable. Gu Qingluan worried he would discover her plot, so she intentionally put herself in his hands, causing him to lose his composure.

Everything went according to her plan. Given his aversion to women, he would undoubtedly panic when he touched places he shouldn’t have.

She made careful preparations by applying the poison to her neck and hands.

If that slap failed to connect, knowing him as she did, he would probably grab her neck or pinch her chin.

As long as either of those strikes landed, victory would be hers!

Leaning against the doorframe, Feng Tianlan exerted a bit of power and realized his profound energy had completely vanished.

He didn’t need to ask; he could already guess how he had been poisoned.

“I underestimated you.” Feng Tianlan closed his eyes for a moment, then opened them, calmly gazing at her.

Gu Qingluan hadn’t anticipated he would remain so composed. She couldn’t help but admire his unflinching demeanor.

However, she held the upper hand now, and she was confident she could make him lose his cool.

With this in mind, she walked slowly towards him, raised her fist, and fiercely aimed it at his face.

Feng Tianlan’s eyes turned cold. “You dare!”

In her heart, Gu Qingluan thought, why wouldn’t she dare?

She had long wanted to do this.

Did he think saving her life meant she had to be grateful and let him take liberties?

Feng Tianlan moved to the side to evade.

Jing Feng exclaimed and rushed forward to intervene.

“Get out of the way!” Gu Qingluan waved her hand, pushing Jing Feng back, then approached Feng Tianlan, grabbing his collar.

Her fist mercilessly landed on his face.

Feng Tianlan grunted, his eyes flashing with a murderous glint.

“Gu Qingluan, you seek death!”

No one had ever dared to strike him like this.

How audacious she was, daring to lay hands on him!
