Chereads / Wait, What? I'm a Phoenix? / Chapter 44 - Chapter 44

Chapter 44 - Chapter 44

Di Xueyan is at lost at this moment. How can she be so unfortunate in this special day of hers? She thought that her birthdays without her father is already the worse, who would have thought that something like this will happen?

" Hey mr. assassins, I just want to inform you that I am not one of them. So, if I may, I will go now, bye! ", she smiled sweetly at the one in front who seems to be the leader and gracefully turned her back.

She hasn't took her second step yet when she feels a tugging of the collar of her bathrobe. She irritatedly turns her body back when she saw the masked man smirking in front of her.

" I guess it will be better for you to atleast dress yourself first before leaving, love", his voice is so soft and with a hint of amusement but as cultivators, everyone can hear it, including the assassins.

Di Xueyan's irritation turns into anger when she hears those words. How dare he drag her into this mess? What the fuck?

" Excuse me, first of all, you have no rights to call me love. You are not my father, boyfrien-- ah yeah, boyfriends doesn't exist here", she calms herself down as she held her head high.

" You are not my fiancé to begin with. How dare you drag me in this problem of yours! What are you? Someone that I will willingly die for?", she indignantly added while glaring at the masked man in front of her while dressing herself up.

If she was born here, maybe dressing up in front of strangers already made her lose her dignity, but as someone who was born in a liberated place, she doesn't give a damn anymore.

It is not as if she is dressing herself piece by piece anyway. She can use qi to do it, so why wouldn't she?

It is not something that will make someone lose their dignity from her point of view but unfortunately, it is, in this world.

The poor spectators, even the assassins, hung their heads for awhile, trying to take her figure off of their head.

Except the masked man and the leader.

' How shameless!', they all thought. They have never saw nor heard a young lady does this thing in public.

" Anyway, can I go now?", Di Xueyan askes as she adjusts her snow white belt with white phoenix embroideries. She held her head high as her snow white robe lightly flutters in the evening breeze, the moonlight hits the white diamond in her forehead making it glistens as her eyes flashed with a proud glint, her small plump lips is pursed lightly as she bravely met the gaze of the people around her, making her looks like an ethereal being.

Suddenly, a clap broke the trance of the people followed by a mocking laugh.

" After all your good times with him, you are just going to abandon him in this wilderness full of people who wants to murder him? Young Master Ye, I thought you are very high and mighty, who would have thought that you are to be abandoned by the sole woman who you permits to be near you? If you just chose my sister, maybe things have not escalated this far", the man who looks like the leader mocked the unmoved masked man. He looks like mocking the wind because the man in front of him does not even looks at him in the slightest, as if he is never aware of his presence at all.

The assassins leader's words makes Di Xueyan laughs out loud as she saw another cultivation drama again. She already expected that the more she stays here, the more dramas she will see, but the reality is better than her expectations. Who the hell would kill a prospective groom just because he declined?

" God, just how obsessive your family is? Just because you can't have him, you want to destroy him? Since you want him that much, it could only be because his family is influential or he is influential. Aren't you afraid of revenge if this damned farce will fail? ", she tries to stabilize herself as she clutches her stomach. She can't help but to be amused at this situation.

" Who would have thought that you would be this in demand that if they can't have you, no one else can? How hilarious! ", she pointed the masked man while laughing. She already infers in her mind that he must be young master Ye, but she just wants to continue disrespecting him than to say his proper title. She never knew him anyway.

" And you, where is your sister's dignity? Seriously, cornering a poor man just because she can't have him? Just how virtous your sister is?", she mocked as she turns her body towards the assassins' leader.

" How dare you speak at young master and young miss Mu like that!? Do you want to die? ", a deep voice from a man behind the leader whatever shouted in anger. His idiotic question made Xueyan rolls her eyes as she points herself, not forgetting to stare at him mockingly.

" You are whoever Mu? How could you have an idiotic servant by yourside? Ah, anyway, the servants are the reflection of their masters", she saw how whoever Mu's face contorted in anger as he already throws his mask moments ago knowing that he doesn't need it anymore anyway. He was busted because of his uncontrollable mocking. Seems like he really hates the bastard in front of them, hmmm?

" You should have had atleast taught him that when doing a crime, whether I am their people or not, I still have to die as I can be a witness of your evil deed. Haysss, you should really educate your people first before proudly killing someone. But, I think you have to cultivate your brain first though", she mockingly points the upper corner of their robe where a very small insignia of a white tiger can be seen. It can't be seen if you are not looking for anything wrong in their robes as it is embroidered with the same colour of their robes. But still, it is very idiotic.

" Hey, is their family insignia a roaring white tiger?", she lazily crosses her arms as she turns her head to young master Ye while raising her brows.

" Yes", he curtly replied with a nod, confusing the opponents in front of them.

Their family insignia is something that only a member of their family can see. It was an ancient spell dating a hundreds of thousands years ago, so how can they see it? No one in the outside world has the ability to.

Even Ye Longtian, the masked man, raises his brows, thinking that she really is something. It is either she comes from an ancient superfamily or she comes from Mu family and wants to rebel.
