Wedding Night: I Am Forced To Marry A Dragon Girl Chapter 140 – – Nothing but Scolding

Chapter 140: Chapter 140 – Nothing but Scolding

“I didn’t expect that brat to be so capable. The ancient tribe is actually willing to offer a reward of 50 million top-grade spirit stones for his head. This time we’re going to hit the jackpot,” the boss of the Black Demons chuckled. “Big brother, that bloke seems pretty formidable; we may not be his match.”

“Just because we’re no match for him doesn’t mean we can’t make our move. We’re the Black Demon Brothers, specialized assassins. As long as we’ve enough patience, we’ll definitely find his weakness and kill him with one strike!”

“Big brother, you truly live up to your name, such profound insight!”

“Big Brother, you’re brilliant! This way, we not only reclaim our belongings by killing that guy but also snare the reward of 50 million top-grade spirit stones. Killing two birds with one stone, you’re amazing, Big Brother!”

Hearing the flattery of his brothers, the boss of the Black Demon’s eyes were filled with satisfaction.

“If not, on what basis would I be the Big Brother? Naturally, I possess exceptional abilities. Enough chatter, LaoEr, let’s not waste any more time and set off now!”

As his words ended, the bandages on their bodies danced crazily in the air, followed by the instantaneous disappearance of their figures.

Inside Four Seas City, Jiang Xiaobai and Qin Nianxue arrived at the Qin family mansion located near the city center. As soon as they reached the entrance, they saw a middle-aged man with a smiling face waiting.

When the middle-aged man saw Jiang Xiaobai, his smile became even broader. His eyes looking Jiang Xiaobai up and down gave Jiang a feeling of panic.

He suddenly felt as if he had ventured into a hostile environment!

“Father, the Liu family is too audacious, even dare to ambush me outside the city. Fortunately, he was there; otherwise, your daughter wouldn’t have been able to return this time.”

Upon seeing Qin Zheng, Qin Nianxue hurried forward and said: “We must teach the Liu family a painful lesson this time!”

Qin Zheng, of course, already knew about the incident that took place outside the city earlier. He was quite worried despite it being a close call.

After confirming that his daughter was unhurt, Qin Zheng laughed heartily and turned towards Jiang Xiaobai.

“What’s your name, young hero? How should I address you?” said Qin Zheng.

Jiang Xiaobai thought for a moment and decided not to reveal his real name: “My name is Jiang Bai.”

“So, it’s Mr. Jiang. You’re a lifesaver for my family this time. This is a token of our appreciation, and I hope you’d accept it.”

As he spoke, Qin Zheng took out a storage ring and handed it to Jiang Xiaobai, who accepted it without hesitation.

Are you kidding? That was ten million top-grade spirit stones. Anyway, he was already at the Qin’s, why not take the offering?

Then Qin Zheng ushered Jiang Xiaobai in. He continued to laugh and chat, nodding frequently, much like a father-in-law sizing up a prospective son-in-law.

Jiang Xiaobai could only pretend not to notice, planning to stay for one night and find an opportunity to leave the next day.

He wasn’t unwilling to associate with the Qin family, but he had been somewhat annoyed by Qin Nianxue’s previous antics. He came out to improve his strength, not for fun.

That night, after dinner, Qin Zheng kept him engaged in conversation, asking about Jiang Xiaobai to which Jiang responded with lies.

Qin Zheng did not suspect anything. On the contrary, he became even more fond of Jiang Xiaobai. When Jiang was about to have enough of this attention, a guard suddenly rushed in and whispered something to Qin Zheng.

This wiped the smile off Qin Zheng’s face, his expression stern, finally giving off the aura of a family head.

“Mr. Jiang, some trouble has found its way here, I need to deal with it,” said Qin Zheng, smiling at Jiang Xiaobai.

Jiang Xiaobai quickly nodded, “Mr. Qin, you go ahead with your business, no need to worry about me.”

Only then did Qin Zheng stand up and quickly leave with the guard, leaving Jiang Xiaobai alone in the courtyard. Meanwhile, Jiang Xiaobai sipped his tea while observing Qin Zheng move towards the mansion’s main hall.

Upon arrival, a group of fuming individuals was waiting, within whom Liu Tian’s rugged figure was quite prominent. Evidently, the Liu family had come for an explanation.

“Qin Zheng, what’s the meaning of this?” The head of the Liu family, Liu Dongsheng, angrily demanded.

“What’s the meaning? Liu Dongsheng, we haven’t settled the score for your son ambushing my daughter, and now you have the audacity to approach us?” Qin Zheng retorted coldly.

Liu Dongsheng was momentarily speechless, but quickly bit back: “Who knows if this isn’t a scheme planned by you old dog to trick my son?”

At these words, Qin Zheng’s eyes bulged with rage, which soon turned into laughter: “Oh, Liu Dongsheng, you’re hilarious. You can think up such things?”

“Humph, regardless, your man was responsible for the loss of over ten Gold Core stage masters. If you don’t explain this, we’re not done,” Liu Dongsheng snorted, the strong men behind him releasing their aura.

Qin Zheng was also unwilling to show weakness; many members of the Qin family including elders countered by encircling the members of the Liu family, completely releasing their own auras.

The tension was clearly mounting, and a conflict seemed imminent.

Jiang Xiaobai, who was observing through his divine sense, was stunned at the unique means of communication between these two influential families.

In reality, this was the usual way of interaction between the two families. Whenever they met, regardless of the occasion, verbal clashes and the release of auras were mandatory. As to whether it would come to blows depended on the situation at that moment.

Nonetheless, despite the poor relations over these many years, no substantial battles had occurred, making these interactions akin to verbal warfare.

“Liu Dongsheng, stop daydreaming. You’re just hoping to get a piece of the spirit stone vein discovered this time by the City Lord Manor. Let me tell you the truth, there’s no share for your Liu family this time!” said Qin Zheng, smiling mockingly.

Liu Dongsheng snorted: “Qin Zheng, don’t be too complacent. I may not be as good as you in bootlicking the city lord, but I’m no weaker than you. I have the Evil Shadow Sect backing me up!”

“What a joke. The Sword Sea Sect is behind my Qin family, why don’t you mention that? Your character really reflects in your son’s actions,” Qin Nianxue taunted from the side.

At her words, Liu Tian, who had come along, felt blood rushing to his head. His face reddened, and he pointed at Qin Nianxue, speechless.

What followed was a verbal battle in the hall between the two families, back and forth, without anyone making a move. Jiang Xiaobai was getting sleepy watching this.

The subsequent events were less clear to Jiang Xiaobai, but he had the general idea that the two families probably ended it after the verbal spat.

The next morning, Jiang Xiaobai stood in the yard, stretching and yawning.

Suddenly, he saw Qin Zheng and Qin Nianxue approaching, surprise flashing across his face.

“Mr. Jiang, you’re up early.”

Qin Zheng, looking like a father-in-law assessing his prospective son-in-law, chuckled and said, “It’s quite a coincidence. Today, the City Lord’s Mansion is auctioning an item. It’s quite a spectacle.. Would you be interested in accompanying us?”
