Chapter 1022: No Man Would Be Able To Bear With This
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The atmosphere turned tense after Sinclamon threatened w.a.n.g Teng.
Cao Hongtu was surprised. He didn’t expect Sinclamon to take the soft approach first instead of s.n.a.t.c.hing it from w.a.n.g Teng directly.
Why did he do that?
Cao Hongtu didn’t understand.
He hoped that Sinclamon could slaughter w.a.n.g Teng with him and nip all possible threats in the bud. But this wasn’t the time for him to speak. He was afraid of disrupting Sinclamon’s plan.
!!
The Parkers were too powerful. He didn’t have w.a.n.g Teng’s courage to fight the Parkers. If he did, he wouldn’t have sent his daughter into their family.
Jiaojiao!
Oh right, where’s my daughter?
Cao Hongtu finally remembered his poor daughter. Although he had sacrificed her for a political marriage, he still loved her.
An Lan looked at w.a.n.g Teng. He was a little concerned about the Parkers, but he wasn’t afraid.
w.a.n.g Teng’s situation was different though. He wanted to be a baron in the empire and the Parkers were one of the eight dukes. If he offended them, he would have a hard time in the Great Qian Empire even if he became a baron.
Now, he possessed two divine flames. The Parkers had all the more reason to target him.
An Lan knew how important divine flames were to the Parkers family. They would never allow two kinds of divine flames to land in the hands of another person.
If he didn’t give up his divine flames, w.a.n.g Teng’s life might be at risk.
An Lan’s expression turned grim. This must be a hard decision for w.a.n.g Teng.
w.a.n.g Teng smiled and said, “You’re saying this because you’re worried that you can’t tame these two divine flames, right?”
The crowd was stunned.
Really?
They didn’t think about this!
Sinclamon’s expression froze. He didn’t think that w.a.n.g Teng would be so quick-witted and see through his plan.
He never expected to find any divine flames in the Flaming River World, so he didn’t make any preparations. Thus, he had no confidence that he could tame the divine flame. The only choice was to go back and rely on the power of his elders.
Everyone knew that w.a.n.g Teng was right after seeing his expression.
Cao Hongtu’s gaze flickered as he glanced at Sinclamon from the corner of his eyes. He was enlightened.
Based on his understanding of Sinclamon, he was probably dying to kill w.a.n.g Teng after repeated humiliation. The only reason why he could bear it was the divine flames.
Sinclamon was a fake person too!
“You should know that what I’m saying is right. If you continue being stubborn, you’ll regret it in the future,” Sinclamon didn’t answer him directly. Instead, he changed the topic.
“Hmph.” w.a.n.g Teng shook his head with contempt. “Even if I give you the chance, you can’t do anything. I can put these two divine flames in front of you and you won’t be able to control them. Are you still trying to fight with me when you’re so weak?”
“You!” Sinclamon turned red in anger. His bald head shone brighter. As a heaven-stage martial warrior, he had never been looked down upon so much.
“Cut the c.r.a.p. If you want the divine flames, s.n.a.t.c.h them from me. Let’s see if they’ll listen to you,” w.a.n.g Teng said calmly.
“Good, seems like you want to do this the hard way. Since you are so impudent, don’t blame me for being merciless.” Sinclamon got angry from embarra.s.sment.
An Lan respected w.a.n.g Teng’s toughness. Since both parties had shed all pretenses of cordiality, he decided to open his mouth and speak up, “Isn’t this the loser from the Parkers family? Didn’t you run away the other time? Why are you back again?”
Sinclamon was helpless and indignant. His face turned black as he glared at An Lan.
He lost last time and had to run away to keep his life. This was a humiliation. When An Lan said this openly in front of him, he wished he could charge over and fight with him with his life on the line. But he didn’t have the b.a.l.l.s; he got scared.
“Do you still want to fight?” An Lan opened his arms and said calmly.
“Cao Hongtu, work with me to kill this mecha first,” Sinclamon turned and said to Cao Hongtu.
“w.a.n.g Teng, where’s my daughter?” Cao Hongtu nodded and asked w.a.n.g Teng.
“Oh, you still remember her? I thought you had forgotten about her.” w.a.n.g Teng chuckled and took Cao Jiaojiao out of his s.p.a.ce fragment. “Here she is.”
Cao Jiaojiao was still tied up. She couldn’t move and was lifted up by w.a.n.g Teng in an awkward pose. The bare skin revealed was full of whip marks. They intertwined on her skin, making her look miserable.
When she came out from the s.p.a.ce fragment, she didn’t know what was happening. so she shouted instantly, “w.a.n.g Teng, what do you want to do? You’re a devil. Why are torturing me like this? My father will never let you go!”
Silence!
Everyone went silent.
The atmosphere turned awkward for an instant.
Cao Hongtu and Cao Wu felt blood rising to their head when they saw Cao Jiaojiao’s state. They almost fainted.
Sinclamon’s expression turned hideous. Cao Jiaojiao was going to marry into his family soon, but she landed in w.a.n.g Teng’s hand and appeared to have been played.
This was the greatest disgrace for their family.
If Andrais knew that his fiancée got treated like this, he might lock himself up in the toilet and cry—erm, no, he might rush over and kill w.a.n.g Teng immediately.
Yes, that was right. No man would be able to tolerate this.
An Lan looked back and forth between w.a.n.g Teng and Cao Jiaojiao with a strange gaze. He seemed to find this situation interesting.
Cao Jiaojiao finally noticed something amiss with the atmosphere. She raised her head and saw her father and the others. Her expression froze.
Embarra.s.sed and furious!
These two words described her current emotions perfectly.
“Cough, this is a misunderstanding.” w.a.n.g Teng said awkwardly. He could tell from their expressions that their thoughts had run a little wild.
“w.a.n.g Teng, what did you do to my daughter?”
“w.a.n.g Teng, what did you do to my sister?”
“w.a.n.g Teng, what did you do to Cao Jiaojiao?”
Cao Hongtu, Cao Wu, and Sinclamon opened their mouths at the same time. From their questioning tone, one could tell that they were boiling with anger. If gazes could kill, w.a.n.g Teng would be deader than dead.
w.a.n.g Teng: ???
“w.a.n.g Teng, admit it.” An Lan suppressed his laughter and fanned the flames. He didn’t mind creating a bigger commotion.
His words further confirmed everyone’s guess. Cao Hongtu’s face turned purple-black.
w.a.n.g Teng glared at An Lan fiercely. This matter affected his innocence, so he hurriedly explained, “Listen to me. It’s not what you think.”
“b.a.s.t.a.r.d, do you think we’re blind?” Cao Hongtu felt frustrated, exasperated, furious, and helpless. These emotions were displayed entirely on his black face. His beloved daughter was being trampled by someone, and that person was his enemy.
w.a.n.g Teng felt that he had no chance of explaining himself.
