Before everyone could recover from the news of Nan Chaoyu's return, they were stunned by her words. Could it be that three years ago, it wasn't Nan Chaoyu who offered herself willingly, but was sent away by her own fiancé?
"If that's really the case, Miss Nan is so pitiful. She must have been schemed against by these two people."
"Yeah! If they disliked Miss Nan for being stupid, they could have just annulled the engagement. Everyone knows that once you enter the Holy Light Imperial Palace, it's like entering a dragon's den and tiger's lair. Miss Nan must have suffered a lot."
Hearing the whispers around him, Xie Haotian's face turned as black as ink. The hateful thing was that the slap had left him unable to move at the moment, and he didn't even have the ability to stop them.
How could this bitch Nan Chaoyu be so powerful! She must be putting on an act. It must be that cultivator beside her who made the move just now.
Yes, that's right. When that little bitch was sent away, she wasn't even a martial artist. How could she suddenly become a cultivator?
"Sister Nan, how could you let someone beat Brother Xie? Back then, it was you who wanted to go with the Holy Light Envoy yourself. Why do you still say it was Brother Xie who sent you away!"
Seeing Xie Haotian staring at Nan Chaoyu, Mu Miaomiao quickly spoke up.
She glanced at the strong man beside Nan Chaoyu, a hint of malice flashing in her eyes. But on the surface, she showed a look of grief. Supporting Xie Haotian, she said, "If you're angry because of what Brother Xie said just now, Miaomiao will apologize to you. Brother Xie was just too sad because you left. He said those words because he saw you with someone else. He just lost his head."
Mu Miaomiao was born with a delicate appearance. With her frowning and teary eyes like this, even a woman couldn't bear it, let alone a man.
Those who had just accused Xie Haotian immediately wavered, thinking that what Mu Miaomiao said made sense.
"Nan Chaoyu was a fool. How could she remember who sent her away? Maybe she's just crazy and trying to blame others."
"Exactly! Look at how old that man is. She really has no standards."
"Isn't she just a cultivator? Nan Chaoyu is really a country bumpkin."
The middle - aged strong man's eyes slowly swept across those who were speaking, secretly memorizing their looks in case the master wanted to beat them up later and couldn't find out who they were.
Nan Chaoyu didn't even lift her eyelids. She moved her wrist and asked, "Are you done?"
This action in Mu Miaomiao's eyes was just a bluff, and the pride in her eyes grew even stronger.
So what if you're not stupid anymore? Do you really think you can make a comeback in Dream Sea City just by relying on your looks and a cultivator?
Don't dream!
Mu Miaomiao continued, "Sister Nan, although you have an old relationship with Brother Xie, Brother Xie is now the captain of the city lord's guard. If you let someone beat him like this, aren't you slapping the city lord in the face? Moreover, the Xie family is a great hero in protecting Dream Sea City. If you do this, won't it chill the hearts of the Xie family?
"If anyone can use their status to attack a hero, who will be willing to fight for Fan Sea City in the future? So Sister Nan, apologize to Brother Xie!"
Hearing these words, the onlookers couldn't help but cheer. For a moment, Mu Miaomiao's image seemed to grow taller.
Seeing the reaction of the crowd, Mu Miaomiao curled her lips slightly, and her eyes looking at Nan Chaoyu were full of provocation.
You Nan Chaoyu want to make a comeback with this opportunity? Well, today I'll trample you under my feet completely.
"Heh, Dream Sea City! The Xie family." Nan Chaoyu slowly walked towards the two people snuggling together. Standing in front of them, facing Mu Miaomiao's provocative gaze, she said clearly, "The Xie family? They're nothing."
"Bang!"
As the words fell, Nan Chaoyu raised her hand and slapped Mu Miaomiao across the face, smashing her into the wreckage of the black - gold carriage behind.
Mu Miaomiao was originally a high - level martial artist, but when Nan Chaoyu raised her hand, she didn't even have a chance to resist and was directly slapped flying.
At this moment, she also felt the same immobility as Xie Haotian. Lying in the pile of ruins, she only felt a burning pain on her face and the taste of blood in her mouth.
This sudden move stunned everyone, and the onlookers immediately became restless.
"Nan Chaoyu, you're just a fool from the city lord's mansion. What right do you have to talk about the Nan family?"
"Yes, you're just a parasite. Don't think you can insult the heroes of Dream Sea City just because you have someone to back you up."
"You're not qualified to be here. Get out of Fan Sea City."
"Get out of Dream Sea City."
"Get out of Dream Sea City."
Hearing the voices, Mu Miaomiao struggled to raise her head to look at the person being condemned by the crowd. She felt a burst of pleasure in her heart, and even the pain on her face seemed to ease a lot.
Humph, so what if you can fight? You're still hated by everyone. You still can't get Xie Haotian.
Nan Chaoyu sensed a cold gaze. She turned her head and met Mu Miaomiao's provocative gaze. She snorted coldly.
She reached into her bosom and took out a black token, holding it out in front of everyone.
The crowd suddenly fell silent. Everyone still had their mouths open, but couldn't make a sound, as if their throats had been grabbed.
After a while, someone said, "Is this the Black - Gold Token?"
The Black - Gold Token was a reward from the Dream Sea City Lord to cultivators who had made contributions to Dream Sea City. It was a symbol of strength and status.
Moreover, the Black - Gold Token also had different levels. If the black and gold were separated, it represented the lowest - level token. The more the black and gold were integrated, the higher the level.
The token in Nan Chaoyu's hand was a high - level token second only to the city lord. When such a token was issued, the city lord's mansion would post a notice and the whole city would celebrate. But why didn't they know about it?
Looking at the token in Nan Chaoyu's hand, the crowd had a skeptical look in their eyes. Could it be that she stole it?
"How could you have the Black - Gold Token? It's impossible!"
Mu Miaomiao let out a shrill scream, voicing what everyone was thinking.
At this time, Xie Haotian, who was standing in front of Nan Chaoyu, regained his mobility. Taking advantage of Nan Chaoyu's inattention, he raised his hand and attacked her.
This bitch. As long as he killed her, who would dare to mention his dark history in the future?
In Xie Haotian's opinion, Nan Chaoyu was a useless person. Even if she wasn't stupid now, it wouldn't change anything. She must have learned some half - baked skills somewhere. Just because she had sneaked an attack on Mu Miaomiao, she thought she was invincible.
As for that so - called Black - Gold Token, he had only seen it with his grandfather. How could it be something Nan Chaoyu could have? It must have been stolen by her lover.
Xie Haotian's palm wind wrapped with spiritual energy slapped towards Nan Chaoyu's head, looking like he was going to kill her.
Some people with sharp eyes noticed that Xie Haotian's attack had exceeded the scope of a martial artist. It seemed that he had become a cultivator.
Just now, Nan Chaoyu had easily fanned Mu Miaomiao away. They wondered if she could stop Xie Haotian's attack.
If she could really stop it, did it mean that her Black - Gold Token was real?
But thinking that Nan Chaoyu was still a fool three years ago, everyone denied their own thoughts again. Her Black - Gold Token must have come from an improper source!
Facing such a fierce attack, some timid people covered their eyes, unable to bear to watch the scene of Nan Chaoyu being killed on the spot.
No one noticed that the middle - aged strong man who had been protecting Nan Chaoyu didn't show any sign of worry on his face. Instead, he looked like he was watching a good show.
Xie Haotian's palm was two inches away from Nan Chaoyu's head. A look of ecstasy flashed in his eyes. He used all his strength, ready to completely cripple Nan Chaoyu.
But the slap stopped in place, as if it had hit something hard and couldn't move forward an inch!
He stared at Nan Chaoyu in disbelief, his eyes wide open. "Spiritual energy materialized? How is it possible?"
In Xie Haotian's panicked eyes, Nan Chaoyu slowly raised her hand and slapped him hard across the face.
As he flew out, Xie Haotian heard Nan Chaoyu's cold voice, "Xie Haotian, get ready to face my revenge!"
