Supreme Dragon Seal

Chapter 162: Who's Bored Of Living And Dares To Touch My Woman



A giant parasol tree was planted in front of the Huo family’s courtyard, like an open umbrella, symbolizing shelter and protection for the Huo family.

At this moment, the elite members of the Huo family stood under the shade of the parasol tree, their faces serious and filled with both respect and fear, as they looked at the three figures not far away.

Yes, there were only three individuals on the other side, but they made it difficult for the entire elite of the Huo family to catch their breath.

Among these three individuals, the person on the left was Jin Buqi, the head of the Jin family, and on the right was Lin Dong, the head of the Lin family. They both slightly bowed, deferring to the central figure, an old man with a yellow beard.

Without deliberately releasing any aura, this old man with a yellow beard, just by standing there, seemed to be as stifling as a great mountain, making it hard for people to breathe.

“Jin Buqi, Lin Dong, what is the meaning of this?” Huo Qitian, the head of the Huo family, asked with a serious expression.

“Huo Qitian, we don’t have any intentions. We are simply accompanying this esteemed person to propose marriage.” Jin Buqi smirked.

“Propose marriage? Whose marriage?” Huo Qitian asked.

“This esteemed person has taken a liking to your third daughter. Huo Qitian, this is the blessing your Huo family has accumulated for generations.” Jin Buqi laughed.

Third daughter? Huo Siqin!

Huo Qitian frowned and looked towards the yellow-bearded old man in the center. He spoke in a very polite manner, “Senior, I’m really sorry, but our third daughter has already promised someone else. I’m afraid we might have offended Senior’s goodwill.”

The yellow-bearded old man completely ignored Huo Qitian and stared fixedly at Huo Siqin, who had a pale complexion in the crowd, his greed evident.

“Huo Qitian, everyone in the capital knows that your third daughter hasn’t been engaged yet. You’re disrespecting Elder Huang!” Lin Dong added fuel to the fire from the side.

“Siqin, why don’t you say something?” Huo Qitian turned his head to Huo Siqin in the crowd.

Huo Siqin stepped forward and bravely faced the yellow-bearded old man, saying, “Senior, I have indeed promised someone else. My body and soul already belong to him.”

The yellow-bearded old man laughed heartily and spoke, “Body and soul? I’d like to see who you’ve promised yourself to.”

With that, the yellow-bearded old man suddenly reached out his palm and astonishingly sucked Huo Siqin’s whole person towards him, intending to press his palm against her forehead.

But at that moment, a golden light suddenly shot out from the center of Huo Siqin’s eyebrows and imprinted onto the palm of the old man.

“Zi!” The bearded old man’s body stiffened, and he quickly withdrew his hand. A small hole had been burned by that golden light in the center of his palm, and his complexion instantly became unpredictable.

“What a strong aura, and he can even integrate energy into the sea of consciousness. He’s probably a mental-type earth-grade mage.” The yellow-bearded old man thought to himself, caught in a dilemma. Although he was an earth-grade warrior, he didn’t want to provoke a mage of the same level for the sake of a woman.

The perplexed expression on the yellow-bearded old man’s face caught Jin Buqi and Lin Dong off guard. Could the situation have taken an unexpected turn?

Meanwhile, the members of the Huo family felt somewhat relieved. Earlier, Huo Qiming and his granddaughter Huo Siqin had returned and recounted their encounter on the way. At that time, they didn’t quite believe it, but now, judging from the apprehensive look on the yellow-bearded old man’s face, it seemed that the adventurer who had claimed Huo Siqin’s body and soul was indeed a powerful earth-grade warrior.

Regardless, they hoped that the Huo family would be able to overcome this crisis.

“Lord Huang, this…” Jin Buqi spoke softly.

However, the yellow-bearded old man raised his hand to stop him. He burst into laughter and said, “Regardless of who she promised, this woman belongs to me, Huang.”

With that, the old man condensed his qi into ropes and instantly bound Huo Siqin.

But at that moment, a spark of fire shot towards the bearded old man’s hand fast as lightning.

The old man patted the layer of yellow light on his hand. A muffled grunt sounded, and a woman wearing a tight red suit appeared, revealing her figure. It was none other than the leader of the Scorpion Mercenary Corps, the Beauty Scorpion.

When the yellow-bearded old man saw the seductive figure of Beauty Scorpion, his eyes lit up. However, when he noticed the scorpion tattoo on her charming face, his brows furrowed, and he immediately lost interest.

“You’re asking for death!” The bearded old man shouted fiercely. He waved his hand, and a burst of yellow radiance blasted towards Beauty Scorpion.

“Boom!”

As a senior grade warrior, Beauty Scorpion was completely helpless against the yellow-bearded old man, an earth-grade powerhouse. She spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying.

“You old man, you’ll regret it if you touch her.” Beauty Scorpion half propped herself up, wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth. She spoke with unwavering certainty, as if stating a fact.

“Hahaha, regret? I, Huang, don’t even know how to spell the word regret.” The yellow-bearded old man laughed loudly and pulled Huo Siqin, intending to leave.

“Stop, you… Ah!” At this moment, a young man from the Huo family angrily spoke up. But before he finished his words, the bearded old man slashed through the air with a wave of his hand. A yellow radiance flashed by, and the young man’s head fell off, blood spraying up to a height of 3 meters.

Jin Buqi and Lin Dong felt secretly delighted. They hoped that everyone in the Huo family would lose their sanity so they could use the yellow-bearded old man’s hand to slaughter them all.

However, they were disappointed. Huo Qitian loudly stopped the angry young members of the family. As the family head, he also felt frustrated. Since the Huo family came into power, they had always been lawless. When had they ever suffered such a loss? But now, they had no choice but to endure it, or else it would invite the calamity of annihilation.

Just then, two graceful figures suddenly rushed in through the main gate.

“Release my sister!” Huo Sitian entered and saw her sister, Huo Siqin, bound. She shouted angrily.

The bearded old man glanced at Huo Sitian, perhaps lacking interest in an underdeveloped loli. His gaze then turned to Feng Ruoyu standing beside her. However, after just one glance, his eyes widened. This person was from the Feng family of the Golden Leaf Empire, and he didn’t want to provoke them.

“Family head, quickly tell him to release my sister.” Huo Sitian turned to Huo Qitian again.

Huo Qitian lowered his gaze, remaining silent. Faced with an earth-grade powerhouse, he had no way to resist.

However, Huo Qiming had mentioned when he returned that the earth-grade powerhouse they encountered was also a ruthless killer. He feared that if that earth-grade powerhouse came knocking, the Huo family would have a hard time explaining. But now, the crisis was right in front of him, and he had no other choice.

“Esteemed senior, Huo Siqin is my friend. Could you release her? If you have any conditions, you can state them.” Feng Ruoyu’s eyes flickered as she spoke up.

The yellow-bearded old man glanced at Feng Ruoyu and said, “If your family’s elder were the one saying this, I, Huang, might give some face. But you’re not qualified.”

“I will offer fifty top-grade magic crystals to release her.” Feng Ruoyu said.

Fifty top-grade magic crystals were worth millions of gold coins, indeed a huge fortune. However, for an earth-grade powerhouse, it was not enough to catch their attention.

Therefore, the yellow-bearded old man completely ignored Feng Ruoyu, lifted Huo Siqin, and was about to leave.

“Who’s bored of living and dares to touch my woman?” At that moment, a rough voice suddenly thundered, accompanied by an overwhelming and suffocating aura that pressed down on everyone.

The yellow-bearded old man’s face immediately turned serious, while Huo Siqin and the fallen Beauty Scorpion, who was unable to get up, showed expressions of joy.

A bearded man descended from the sky, his cold gaze fixed on the yellow-bearded old man called Huang.

“Your woman? She is mine now,” the yellow-bearded old man couldn’t quite figure out Qi Bei, but he couldn’t show any weakness. He locked eyes with Qi Bei.

Suddenly, a dazzling golden light radiated from Qi Bei’s eyes, causing a piercing pain in the old man’s mind. Astonished, he involuntarily took two steps back.

But those two steps already placed him at a disadvantage in terms of aura.

“Hahaha, the cost of being shamelessly boastful is death!” Qi Bei laughed wildly, seizing the opportunity to strike the yellow-bearded old man with a palm.

With a single strike, a violent energy burst out in all directions, instantly shattering the main gate of the Huo family. Jin Buqi and Lin Dong, who stood beside the yellow-bearded old man, both coughed up blood and flew out.

The old man didn’t try to force it. He flew up into the air and shot towards the city outskirts, with Qi Bei close behind.

The binding aura on Huo Siqin disappeared, and she ran towards her sister, Huo Sitian, and Feng Ruoyu.

However, Feng Ruoyu was gazing at the sky, and a hint of doubt flashed through her bright and agile eyes. Why did the back of that bearded man feel so familiar? She had seen quite a few adventurers with beards, but none had left a deep impression on her.

“Siqin, are you okay?” Feng Ruoyu withdrew her gaze and looked at Huo Siqin with concern.

Huo Siqin shook her head, her expression also somewhat complicated.

“What exactly happened?” Feng Ruoyu asked.

Huo Siqin sighed softly and briefly recounted what had happened in the northwest territory.

“That bearded man is not a good person either. He actually forced my sister,” Huo Sitian complained indignantly.

Huo Siqin shook her head and said, “It was my choice. Don’t blame others.”

Feng Ruoyu didn’t express her opinion, but deep down, she believed that for a powerhouse of Earth-grade’s level, not killing all those people after the way Huo Qiming treated him could be considered merciful. Moreover, it was indeed Huo Siqin who proposed to offer her body and soul in exchange for Huo Qiming’s life.

Coming from a prestigious family herself, Feng Ruoyu had been exposed to more and more things over the years, broadening her horizons and gaining a deeper understanding of many things that had puzzled her before.

In this world, there was no absolute fairness. Facing a powerhouse who could end your life with a flick of their hand, receiving relative fairness was already rare and precious.

“Sister, you…” Huo Sitian was about to say something but was stopped by Huo Siqin’s gaze.

“This is my choice, and I have no regrets,” Huo Siqin said. Her choice was her destiny. Destiny was like a great river, and where it would take her, she didn’t know, nor did she need to know.

“What if the bearded man loses to that yellow-haired old man?” Huo Sitian asked.

“It won’t happen,” came two voices in unison. One was Huo Siqin, and the other was the Beauty Scorpion, who had appeared by their side without anyone noticing. Perhaps their confidence in Qi Bei had inexplicably formed when he implanted the Dragon Mark on them.

At this moment, Jin Buqi and Lin Dong rushed out in a sorry and embarrassed state. They had not expected such a major change in this seemingly foolproof situation, and now they had to quickly report to Lord Ling Xiao.
