Chapter 537: Dividing the Spoils (Action 1)

Li Yaoxiang sneered, conjured a lightning ball in his hand, and suspended it directly above Su Luo's head.

The lightning ball was the size of a soccer ball, formed entirely from gathered lightning, shining brightly, swirling with mist, and hissing with sound.

If it were to explode above Su Luo's head, then, no matter how proud she was, she would be reduced to ashes in the next moment.

"Stinky Girl, this is your last chance." Li Yaoxiang's gaze was as cold as frost. "If you don't grasp it, you will never have another chance in this lifetime."

Li Yaoxiang was speaking the truth.

Now that even the most powerful person in the Su Residence, Su Zian, had knelt before him, who else would dare to utter a single word of dissent against his actions?

Even if he were to slaughter everyone in the Su Residence, who would dare to say a word? Not to mention just killing the insignificant Su Luo?

Su Luo's eyes narrowed slightly, her heart sinking continuously…

The death of Li Aotian must absolutely not be spoken of.

Li Yaoxiang's power was also something she could not resist.

Both paths were blocked; she was powerless to break this deadlock. She was not strong enough yet!

Under that immense pressure, Su Luo's legs kept bending, bending lower and lower, almost touching the ground.

And the lightning ball above her head hissed, like a bomb ready to explode at any moment, making one's heart race with fear.

On Su Luo's skin, from her pores, tiny beads of blood formed and rolled down.

The blood droplets fell around her, forming a circle.

A blood-red circle confined her to that spot, and she was unable to move even a single inch.

Su Luo gritted her teeth and persisted, yet her knees continued to buckle. At the final moment when her knees were about to touch the ground—

Suddenly, a figure descended from the sky like a Heavenly God.

Su Luo looked up and saw that he was wearing a magnificent white robe, his sleeves fluttering. He was incredibly handsome, his skin as delicate and lustrous as mutton-fat jade. He was as beautiful as the moon obscured by light clouds, as graceful as the wind swirling through snow—his beauty was truly breathtaking.

He spun and flew over, stretching out his long arms to sweep Su Luo into his embrace.

With a wave of his hand, the oppressive pressure within the great hall instantly vanished into thin air.

He was bright-eyed and white-toothed, with an extraordinary bearing. An arrogant, peerless sharpness radiated from him, and the natural kingly dominance in his every movement made one dare not look directly at him.

He looked down at Su Luo, his eyes filled with faint tenderness and determined protection.

Your Highness Prince Jin?!

Su Zian and Su Jingyu both stared in astonishment at Nangong Liuyun, staring at the way he tightly held Su Luo.

If the rumors were correct, Your Highness Prince Jin had been friends with the Yaochi Palace for many years; how could he now…

Nangong Liuyun flicked his sleeve seemingly at random, yet the lightning ball shot straight toward Li Yaoxiang's vital points.

"Liuyun, you—" Li Yaoxiang's face was full of disbelief, accompanied by surging rage.

Nangong Liuyun wore a nonchalant smile at the corner of his mouth: "Returning the lightning ball to its owner; my Girl Luo cannot bear such power."

"Nangong Liuyun!" Li Yaoxiang roared.

He had not expected Nangong Liuyun to appear at the last moment, nor had he expected him to immediately protect that Stinky Girl upon arrival. Even more unexpectedly, he had attacked him for the sake of an ant-like Stinky Girl!

The lightning ball struck, flashes of electricity dancing. Nangong Liuyun had shot it from such a tricky angle that Li Yaoxiang was left scrambling to deal with it.

By the time he finally managed to retrieve the lightning ball, he saw Nangong Liuyun looking at him sideways with a mocking sneer.

The anger in Li Yaoxiang's heart surged violently. Relying on his status as an elder, he pointed at Nangong Liuyun's nose: "What is wrong with you! For a Stinky Girl, you dare to treat me like this!"
