39: Nannan's fanning the flames

"Xiao Huohuo, what's wrong with you?"

"Why is your face even paler than that nun sister downstairs who got beaten up?"

Nanny, who was cracking melon seeds, noticed the abnormality in her brother beside her. Her little head tilted, and her large, black grape-like eyes were full of questions.

"...Nothing."

Xiao Huohuo's throat felt like it was plastered with dry cement, and the sound he pulled out could cover two villas.

"Hmph! You're lying!"

Who knew, this little girl Nanny didn't fall for it. Her small mouth pouted, and like a hanging oil bottle, she directly jumped off the chair.

Da da da!

Her short legs moved quickly, and she rushed in front of Xiao Huohuo, looking up with her pink, chubby face.

"You have a smell on you, it's not good!"

The little girl sniffed hard, her small nose wrinkled like a steamed bun.

"My Master said this is... oh, right, a Heart Demon!"

Boom!

The words "Heart Demon" were like two bolts of heavenly thunder.

His face instantly turned from pale to ghastly white, as if brushed with three layers of lime powder, with not a trace of blood visible!

"Nanny Senior Sister..."

Qin Jiu's scalp tingled, and he was about to come over and smooth things over.

"You shut up!"

Nanny crossed her small arm, like a little adult, and directly pushed Qin Jiu back.

Immediately after, she stretched out her chubby little hands and grabbed Xiao Huohuo's large hand, which was trembling uncontrollably from anger and humiliation.

"Xiao Huohuo, tell me the truth, did some scoundrel downstairs bully you?"

The little girl's big eyes were sparkling, like two purest pieces of glazed glass, so clean without a trace of Impurities, able to illuminate the darkest corners of a person's heart.

"Don't be a coward! Tell Nanny Senior Sister, Nanny Senior Sister will beat him up for you!"

Her words were so crisp! So domineering!

A warm current, without warning, surged from Xiao Huohuo's heart, which was about to freeze into an ice block.

He stared at the little girl in front of him who was standing up for him, his eyes warmed, and those uncooperative golden tears almost rolled out.

In the end, he still nodded despondently like a defeated rooster, his voice as soft as a mosquito's hum: "That... woman in green from the Emei Sect downstairs, that's... Cloud Mirage."

"Cloud Mirage?"

Nanny blinked, her little brain working rapidly. Suddenly, she clapped her small hands, making a crisp sound.

"Oh! Is that the stinky woman who broke off your engagement and called you useless?!"

That shout was crisp and loud, without any attempt to censor it!

Qin Jiu's face immediately turned green.

My little ancestor!

Your loud voice, you're afraid the person downstairs won't hear, right! This is the rhythm to detonate on the spot!

Xiao Huohuo wished he could jump out of the window and had never been so humiliated in his life! Public execution, nothing more than this!

"Oh, good! So it was her!"

Who knew Nanny completely ignored the reactions of the two grown men. She put her hands on her hips, looking like a little tigress ready for a fight, her face flushed with anger, puffed up like a small steamed bun.

"This bad woman, she looks decent, but why is her heart so wicked! It's just breaking off an engagement, but she cursed you in front of so many people, exposing your shortcomings, isn't this bullying an honest person!"

The little girl's logic was very clear!

"Xiao Huohuo, don't worry!" Nanny declared boldly, "Nanny Senior Sister, I'm taking charge of this! Later, watch my signal, I must teach her a lesson! Let her know that friends of Tai Xuan Immortal Sect are not to be trifled with!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Huohuo felt a warmth in his heart, but he only took it as innocent child's talk and shook his head with a bitter smile.

Let her stand up for him?

How could that be possible.

Cloud Mirage was now a disciple of the Emei Sect, her status was no longer what it used to be, and he... was just a useless person.

Alas!

As the three of them whispered, downstairs, the atmosphere was already tense, on the verge of erupting!

"Zhao Zhijing, you shameless lecher! Today, I, Ding Minjun, shall act on behalf of the Dao and cleanse the sect!" Ding Minjun shouted angrily, her long sword in hand twirled into a Sword Qi, ready to strike.

"Just you?!" Zhao Zhijing was fearless, his face full of lecherous smiles.

"Senior Brother, why waste words with these stinky women, just capture them directly, so we can also taste what these Emei Sect women are like!" A Daoist behind him shouted in encouragement.

"You're courting death!"

Ding Minjun completely exploded, raising her sword to stab!

A chaotic battle was about to break out!

Inside the private room, Nanny was cracking melon seeds, watching with great interest.

Qin Jiu and Xiao Huohuo were also staring intently.

Just then!

Nanny's eyes darted around, and a mischievous smile curved her lips.

"Hehe, let's do it!"

She quietly extended a fair, tender finger and lightly pointed at Cloud Mirage downstairs, who had been observing with cold eyes, as if it had nothing to do with her!

A subtle yet profoundly mysterious Chaos magical power silently left her body!

Downstairs.

Cloud Mirage was frowning at the farce before her, feeling a bit impatient with both Zhao Zhijing's shamelessness and Ding Minjun's impulsiveness.

She subconsciously wanted to retreat, to distance herself from this place of trouble.

However!

"Zheng—!"

A clear, ringing Sword Qi sound rang out without warning!

The treasured sword on her back, which never easily left its scabbard, seemed to be grasped by an invisible hand, suddenly drawing itself, transforming into a startling flash of light, carrying a bone-chilling coldness, at an incredible angle, fast as lightning, heading straight for the back of Zhao Zhijing's heart, who was preparing to strike!

This sword strike was fast! Accurate! Ruthless!

The cunning angle and ingenious timing were simply a stroke of genius!

"Holy crap!"

Zhao Zhijing was already fully focused on defending against Ding Minjun, how could he have expected such a sword to suddenly appear from behind!

The deadly sense of crisis made all the hairs on his body stand on end. Without thinking, he did a lazy donkey roll, dodging in a disheveled manner.

Even so, the chilling Sword Qi still left a deep, bone-visible bloodstain on his back!

"Who?! Which son of a bitch is ambushing me from behind?!"

Zhao Zhijing was still shaken, both startled and enraged, and he abruptly turned his head.

At this sight, he was completely stunned.

He saw that the long sword that had ambushed him was still lying on the ground, and not far away, the bewildered Cloud Mirage was still holding the empty scabbard without its sword!

The entire scene was dead silent!

Everyone's gaze was fixed on Cloud Mirage!

Ding Minjun also stopped her movements, looking at her Junior Sister in disbelief.

Cloud Mirage was even more completely dumbfounded!

She... she hadn't moved at all!

How could her sword fly out by itself and injure someone?!

"Good! Cloud Mirage!"

Zhao Zhijing clutched the wound on his back, wincing in pain, but a ferocious sneer appeared on his face.

"You little slut, you pretend to be aloof on the surface, but I never thought your heart was so vicious, daring to strike such a poisonous blow from behind!"

"Emei Sect! You're very good! Very good!"

"Today, this matter is not over!"

Zhao Zhijing was completely enraged, murderous intent flashing in his eyes!

"Go! Cripple all these stinky women for me!"
