Chapter 958 The Fool Has Arrived
Recalling what happened outside the Xuan Emperor's Palace back then, both of them felt as if it were a lifetime ago.
Back in the day, the two were enemies.
Bringing up this matter, Zhao Mu suddenly asked, "By the way, what was your opinion of me back then?"
"I'm a little confused."
Xia Ruoxi truthfully answered her questions about how she felt back then, "Senior Brother Zhao, you used to be so good to me, but ever since that birthday banquet, you've been like a different person. You stopped coming to see me and instead went to..."
"I was quite resentful at the time, but that was all I felt; I didn't really have any particular feelings towards you."
"My opinion really changed when I approached you to collaborate."
"Senior Brother Zhao, you're a completely unreasonable lecher. In all your years, no man has ever treated me like that, and then..."
"And then, you kept me in your heart?"
Zhao Mu interjected.
"more or less!"
Xia Ruoxi nodded and said, "At first, I just held a grudge and resented you for touching me. At most, I just wanted to cooperate with you to get rid of that Xu Shenghao guy, but..."
"But I tricked you again, didn't I!"
Zhao Mu chuckled, pinching Xia Ruoxi's soft flesh, and scolded, "Who told you to give me such a bad impression back then, wandering among men and using them as bargaining chips? Would I dare touch someone like you? I'd run away as fast as I could."
This is his truest thought.
Moreover, this is a female-oriented novel, and according to the plot, Xia Ruoxi, the main female character, has multiple men.
He doesn't want to be like-minded with others; it's disgusting.
Unexpectedly, Xia Ruoxi was influenced by him, her personality changed, and due to some unforeseen events, he gradually took advantage of her and eventually took her virginity.
"I come from humble beginnings, and what can I do to climb up from the bottom? But I am clean, and Senior Brother Zhao should know that very well, after all..."
Xia Ruoxi touched Zhao Mu with a half-smile, the meaning of which was self-evident.
Then, she brought up the events of that year again, saying calmly, "It's strange, I should have hated you back then, but I keep thinking about what you did to me every few days."
"Later, after hearing the sect's decision, I foolishly risked going to Yuzhou City to inform your family in advance and escort them safely out of Daozhou."
Looking back now, I guess I already had feelings for you back then!
"But Senior Brother Zhao, you're really mean, making me wait so long!"
Hearing this complaint, Zhao Mu couldn't help but flick Xia Ruoxi's nose and tease her, "Of all my women, you're the most gluttonous. Isn't that enough to make up for it? Think about what you did in the Divine Phoenix Ridge Secret Realm."
"Senior Brother Zhao~"
Xia Ruoxi, her cheeks slightly flushed, gently shook Zhao Mu's arm, looking as if she couldn't bear to recall the past.
"But then again, what kind of opportunities did you encounter in these past three years?"
Zhao Mu was indeed quite curious.
Xia Ruoxi recounted her experiences over the past three years in a frank and open manner. Before she knew it, it was late at night. As for the palace, Zhao Mu would not return for the time being, but would go directly to the stage when the 'martial arts contest for marriage' began.
so.....
Big green tea got a good deal again tonight.
What a glutton!
The next day at noon, after staying in the inn room for several days and nights, Xia Ruoxi finally agreed to go out.
To their surprise, they ran into an old acquaintance as soon as they stepped outside.
On the street, a handsome but somewhat gloomy and aloof man walked through the crowd with a long sword in his hand. At first glance, he was inconspicuous, but after a closer look, it was discovered that this guy was none other than Ji Wenxuan, whom he had mentioned to Xia Ruoxi last night.
He almost didn't recognize me after not seeing me for so many years.
The changes are truly enormous.
Ji Wenxuan was once a spirited and dashing young nobleman, but now...
Its noble and understated air is like a sharp sword poised to strike, giving people a completely different feeling.
Moreover, the facade is clearly gone.
I remember when we first met, this young master of the Ji family arrived surrounded by a throng of people, with quite a few attendants around him, almost like he was being carried in a grand sedan chair.
But now, all alone, he's even more low-key than Ji Haoxuan.
You've really transformed!
"Perfecting the Four Extremes Realm!"
After Xia Ruoxi and Zhao Mu investigated separately, they exchanged a surprised glance. This guy had really given them a big surprise.
No wonder my mother-in-law said this guy would be a formidable rival.
That's not simple, not simple at all!
Perhaps, Ji Wenxuan is no worse than Xu Shenghao.
"Huh? He found out. That's interesting!"
Zhao Mu was quite surprised to see Ji Haoxuan suddenly look up at him.
Not to mention those within the same realm, even cultivators a realm higher than him have never made a mistake when using the innate pupil technique he obtained from Ji Qingyue to investigate.
Ji Wenxuan's ability to perceive this clearly indicates that he is not a simple person.
"He's coming!"
Xia Ruoxi reminded her.
"Let him come if he wants, but he'd better give me a reason to take action right now. I'll beat him to a pulp and throw him back into the Blackwater River. How dare he covet my wife? He's asking for death."
Although everyone's goal is the Golden Dragon Marrow, no one would refuse this marriage.
In other words, whoever wins will truly become the son-in-law of the Great Xia Dynasty.
"What a stingy man!"
Xia Ruoxi covered her mouth and chuckled, "But I like you just the way you are."
"What? Aren't you afraid that Ji Wenxuan will find out about our relationship?"
Zhao Mu raised his eyebrows slightly.
"He can't see it, he's a stupid fool."
Xia Ruoxi confidently raised her chin slightly. Since coming out, she had maintained a good distance from Zhao Mu. Not to mention Ji Wenxuan, even if the meticulous Xia Ningzhi came, she would not be able to find any clues and could only rely on subjective guesses.
As the two were talking, Ji Wenxuan had already gotten very close.
"Zhao Mu, Xia Ruoxi?"
"Ji Wenxuan, it's been a long time!"
Seeing that the other party's attitude wasn't bad, Xia Ruoxi naturally smiled slightly as well.
Regardless, the Xuantian Dao Sect and the Ji family of the Blackwater River are now allies, and as a disciple of the Xuantian Dao Sect's sect leader, it is only right that she be friendly to Ji Wenxuan.
"Yes, it's been a long time, and all of this is thanks to Brother Zhao."
"So, you mean it's my fault?"
"I don't blame Brother Zhao. After all, without you, I wouldn't have achieved what I have today. But the grudges from back then can't be erased so easily."
"Let's fight?"
"Brother Zhao, why are you in such a hurry? Since you've come to the capital of the Great Xia Dynasty, you must also be here for the Golden Dragon Marrow. We'll have our chance to fight then."
"Golden Dragon Marrow? No, no, no!"
Zhao Mu chuckled and denied it, saying, "I came for the Ninth Princess. Golden Dragon Marrow is nothing compared to the beauty of a woman."
Upon hearing this, Ji Wenxuan was taken aback. He glanced at Zhao Mu and, noticing the serious look in Zhao Mu's eyes, chuckled and said, "I almost forgot, Brother Zhao loves beautiful women the most. Even Ji Qingyue, the darling daughter of my Ji family, has fallen into your hands."
"However, you and Xia Ruoxi..."
