Chapter 126 - 126 I Want His Life

126 I Want His Life

“Little brother, please show mercy!”

The young man in the lead was wearing a black light armor and a red cloak. Before the wildebeest could stop, he jumped off the horse and rushed to Beiting Huang.

“Young City Lord, save me, save me!” Steve cried bitterly. He was no longer as reckless as before. He no longer wanted someone to kill Beiting Huang and tear her into pieces.

The young man did not even look at him from the corner of his eyes. He only cupped his hands at Beiting Huang. Under his thick eyebrows and big eyes, his bright eyes carried a hint of a smile, making his upright and handsome facial features look a little elegant. He was clearly a swordmaster with a heavy sword on his back, but there was no murderous aura on him. On the contrary, it was easier to believe that he was a general who was strategic.

“Hello, little brother!” The young man was exceptionally polite. It was obvious that Beiting Huang was much younger than him, but he treated him with respect. He was not disrespectful at all. It could even be said that it was another form of care. “I’m the young city lord of the Magical Beast Fortress. My name is Mu Yang.”

Beiting Huang didn’t say anything. She only looked at him indifferently. With a light stomp of her foot, Steve howled again. It was probably because his ally had arrived that his howl was a little exaggerated. Beiting Huang smiled coldly. Seeing that Mu Yang’s face was unmoved and indifferent, she smiled faintly and said, “Bei Ye!”

Bei Ye was her name.

What a proud little fellow! Mu Yang shook his head with a smile. The warmth in his eyes intensified. He raised his hand and pointed at Steve, who was under Beiting Huang’s feet. “This is the scum of my Magical Beast Fortress. Brother Bei Ye, can you hand him over to me and let my Magical Beast Fortress deal with him?”

“Do you think I’m a three-year-old child who’s easy to fool?” Beiting Huang raised his eyebrows and sneered.

Mu Yang shook his head and said sincerely, “It’s really not what you think!” He pointed at the city defense army behind him. “I brought people here this time because someone reported to the City Lord’s Mansion that this person relied on his status to bully the warriors who came to help suppress the magical beast ramage. I want to bring this person back and hand him over to the City Lord’s Mansion to deal with him personally.”

“Is that so?” If Beiting Huang didn’t know Steve’s identity, she might really believe this young man’s words. She might even praise him for being wise. However, at this moment, Beiting Huang sneered. “Since you’re the young city lord, isn’t this person your uncle?”

“Uncle?” Mu Yang was horrified. Then, he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. What a confused little fellow. The young man rubbed his nose, and his eyes couldn’t help but reveal a doting expression. “Little brother, did he tell you this?”

“That’s right!” Beiting Huang raised her chin slightly, looking extremely arrogant. However, this made Mu Yang laugh. “All the more reason for you to hand him over to me. He and his sister are a branch of the Nangong Family. His sister is a concubine the Nangong Family gave to my father. My mother is the dignified City Lord’s wife. How can he be my uncle?!”

Beiting Huang’s face turned red. She had forgotten that this was different from the 21st century. The men here could openly have multiple wives and concubines. In a fit of anger, Beiting Huang flatly refused. “That won’t do. I want his life. Who asked him to offend me again and again? Hand him over to you? Maybe you’ll spare his life on account of being relatives!”

It wasn’t that she didn’t understand Mu Yang’s words. Steve was actually a member of the Nangong family. She probably didn’t know his background and he was afraid that he would provoke the Nangong family, so he asked her to stop. However, so what if he was from the Nangong family? Anyone who wanted her dead didn’t have the right to live in this world.

A surge of spiritual power was injected into his feet. The tip of Beiting Huang’s foot was right at Steve’s heart. With a sudden push, Steve curled up like a shrimp. Everyone could see that his body was trembling from the unbearable pain. In everyone’s eyes, Beiting Huang was a god of death that was even more terrifying.
