Chereads / Wait, What? I'm a Phoenix? / Chapter 43 - Chapter 43

Chapter 43 - Chapter 43

She admits that even with a mask on, he is undeniably beautiful, but that doesn't mean that she will just let him humiliate her like that!

" Hey Mr. Whoever the fuck you are, you see this face?", she pointed her flushed face with a smug look.

" This is the face of someone that doesn't need to stand naked just to seduce someone", she crosses her hands as water drops from her hair, making it glistens under the light of the moon. Her leg peeps out of the bathrobe as she also crosses it to make her looks more convincing as she scoffs. Her current look makes the man freeze for a nano second before his frown deepens again.

Who the hell tried to call him Fuck?

A white mist slowly envelops his body as his blood pressure keeps rising and rising.

" But hmmm...", Di Xueyan decided to provoke him more as she can see the white mist that is slowly forming in his body, meaning his in rage. Since she already seems to provoke him, why not provoke him until the end?

' Just that and his already angry? Just how easily angered the people of this continent are?', she thought, amused at how emotionlessly angry he is. She puts her index finger in her chin as she scrutinise his form.

" If I am really to seduce you, I guess I will seduce you to work for me. Just wait for me to be a god so that we can travel in Earth", she tilts her head as she looks from his face down to his exposed abdomen as if checking a new found good.

" You will be a good paying model there. You will have lots of money that we can split into half since I am your scout and manager", she said while doing some strange hand signs in the air. She saw how his already phoenix eyes glares at her in contempt, as if saying she is stupid to think of money they can never spend.

"Hey, hey! Don't you dare underestimate the money of that world! You can buy lots of good foods from there! Have you noticed how bland the foods in this continent? I assure you, you will not - - - -", she stops babbling as she feels an incoming blade in her way. She immediately dodged it as she laughs heartily at how easily riled the man in front of her is.

She saw a flash of shadow as her laughter deepens. She sways her body again as she saw the glint of a sword slashing towards her again. A black clothed man immediately attacked her even with his failed attempts.

Di Xueyan turns her attention to the already emotionlessly calm man in the lagoon and laugh mockingly as she dodge the incoming attack again.

" Awww baby boy, how amazingly hot tempered you are", she shouted at the man in the lagoon as she unleashed her sword to block another incoming attack of another black clothed man. A clashing sound echoed throughout the whole water falls as a whirlwind emits the connected sword. She smiles sweetly at the man in black who stares at her with a slightly wide eyes, as if shocked that she can easily block his technique.

" Oh, sweetie, no need to feel so shocked. It's just Running Dragon Sword Technique, nothing special", she smugly grin as she finally encounters the damned sword technique that made her die time and time again in her mother's assessment. It is not until her two thousandth times did she finally defeated that damned faceless man.

The man in black sighs in wonder as someone actually knows one of their techniques. On top of it all, she can block it as if it is air.

How would he knows that if it the first time to encounter the technique she would surely become a chopped meat? Unfortunately, he never knows that this is the two thousand and one times already.

She is still smiling sweetly, but her back breaks into clod sweats as she realizes that her opponents are not some so - sos. How would she knows that this fucking secret technique comes from these people? Her mother just said that those people are extremely powerful but she never said who are they. She thought that this otherworldly handsome body, yes body, not man, is just a spoiled young master who is having a time of his life.

Who would have thought that he is a spoiled yet very powerful young master? Goddammit! Even his subordinates knows a very complex and rare sword skill and even displayed it as if it is a cabbage that can be found just anywhere. She thought that this is a master type skill, who would have thought that this is just for a subordinate?

With a sweet smile still plastered in her face, a green fire immediately covered her sword. She slash her sword and a bright green flames immediately lightens the place.

Unfortunately for her, the men in black are very damned agile that they can narrowly dodge the swift attack.

" An assassin! Cover the Lord", the once two men became eight as someone who seems to be the leader shouted calmly as if what is happening is just as cliché as a lady who just drops her handkerchief and then suddenly found her true love in the form of the man who helps her take it. Cringey.

Her brain is ringing with the new found accusation though.

" Fuck you all! First I am a seductress, then now I am an assasin? Just how colorful your imaginations are?! ", she shouted as she tries to calm herself down as she pointed her fingers shakily as rage slowly enters her mind again. Gone is the sweet smile as a flushed face and a glare replaced it.

" What do you all think of that man? The most powerful man of this continent who always has assasins in his way? Like what the fuck? Who in their right mind will take a relaxing bath in a forest if he knows that he might be assasinated here? Now that someone bath at the same place, you people are going to accuse them as an assasin? Like hey? Is this forest yours in the first place? Is this yours huh? ", she immediately teleported in front of the man and pointed his face, she doesn't care if her bathrobe is drench in water anymore. She already knows that he, indeed, is a powerful shit. But, she doesn't even know why she is very riled up with these people's accusations when she smilingly embrace such same accusations if it is from the people from the four kingdoms. Maybe as of now, she might mock them and say that their accusations are true for the sake of fun. But now, she felt that this is not funny and she just felt her blood boiling the longer she stares at the mask man that she doesn't know why.

The man twitches his lips slightly as he can't believe that she is so adamant to die. He is about to strike her himself but he heard the woman in front of him shriek loudly. She even snaked her arms in his neck, making him frozen on the spot as he unconsciously shivers. He is about to take her arms off to shake off the weird feeling when he felt a strong tugging from her body, so he also unconsciously snakes his left arm in her waist as he felt that something is off below them.

" Fuck! What the hell is this slimy shit in my foot?! Damn! This is so disgusting!", he frowns a little as he can't believe that such little young lady can cuss that much. He unconsciously thinks about how she cuss in every sentence she said and unconsciously shakes his head.

She shouted again as she felt that the thing is tugging her foot again, making her unconsciously tightens her hold in his neck. The man's frown deepens as he purse his lips in irritation. He waves his free hand as he saw the spirit kelp tugs her leg, the kelp was immediately cut into half as he flies her in the shore with him.

Di Xueyan pats her chest as she is clueless about whatever the hell was that. She can defeat any enemies in her way, but she really is not into slimy things and hates it with so much passion to the point that she can't either move or in rage whenever she encounters some. She turns her head at the masked man in front of her as she is about to say something when she suddenly got distracted at his mighty body. He is half naked as he still has his trouser but now, she can already count the abs of his body.

She unconsciously counts it with her finger pointed in his body as if she is pointing at a market good, making him glare in irritation as he signals his man to stop attacking her and started to dress himself. She sigh in dismay and looks at his scrunched face.

" Well, thank you for what happened a moment ago. See? I'm not an ingrate right? No matter how I cursed you a while ago, I still say thank you right? Right? That's how good as a person I am! So, I can neither be a someone who was sent to seduce you nor to assasinate you. Like what the fuck? Who the hell has the guts to order me? Have you even thought of that? No one! As in no one has! ", she wave her hand to indicate that no one has the guts, which is really the real case. Her smug smile returns again.

Basing in her looks, aura and the way her brain thinks, he is now doubting his own brain. He also felt that no one can order the brat in front of him. Who wants a sharped tongue and acts like a free servant such as her?

" Dude, let me tell you this. I also have these kinds of subordinates, not only you, so if I want something from you, I would have sent them, not me personally, tss", she rolled her eyes as she stares at him again as if he is an idiot for not thinking about it.

" I have already seen a lot of scammers in my life. Why wouldn't I think that you are one of them?", he raised his brow as he tied his belt. He let his long ink black hair behind his shoulder as the water seems to evaporate from it, making it dry in such a short time.

" You! Do you think I really looked like a scammer? I am even too lazy to do a task! What the - - - ", she can't finish her sentence as she felt strong forces coming their way.

In no time, they are surrounded with dark blue clothed men in all angles. They radiated powerful auras which made her raging face returns in its usual calmness. Her face turns serious as she looks at their covered face yet the fierceness in their eyes is so visible. The man in front of her saw the split change in her face, making him a little amused for the first time.

" So, are they your other subordinates?", she asked hopefully calm as she very well know that they obviously aren't.

He decided to humor the woman and said with a smirk,

" No, they seems to be the real assasins'.

What a great way to celebrate her birthday.
