Chapter 301 - Saved the Both of Them Before
“Then, I want to kill you now. What do you want?”
The emperor’s question was like a sword with a sharp edge that stabbed forth, sealing all of Su Zimo’s retreat paths.
His killing intent was almost tangible at this point.
Shrouded by that killing intent, Su Zimo could not move at all!
The Rain Admiration Pavilion fell into an eerie, terrifying silence!
Even Bai Yuhan, who was standing at the side, felt a sense of trepidation, let alone Su Zimo who was at the vortex of the storm.
The emperor’s cultivation was unfathomable to begin with. Coupled with the unique aura possessed by the emperor, this was a sort of pressure that ordinary people would not be able to endure.
Even if it was a Golden Core in place of Su Zimo, he would be kneeling with a frightfully pale expression.
The emperor opened his mouth slightly, dumbfounded. His expression froze and his mind was in a mess.
The Imperial Army soldiers at the side, Bald Vulture, Bai Yuhan and everyone else were losing their composure, watching with widened eyes and jaws that nearly dropped to the ground.
What was up with this Su Zimo?
The emperor only had two daughters and he saved both of their lives before?
Was this person born to save princesses?
Ji Yaoxue was also slightly dazed as she blinked her watery eyes and looked on.
Su Zimo had even saved her younger sister as well?
The emperor coughed gently and regained his composure, asking with a frown, “Yan’er, what’s going on? When did he save you?”
“Back in Chiyu City!”
Demoness Ji replied, “Three years ago, I went to Chiyu City with Auntie Gu. I sneaked out once while Auntie Gu wasn’t around but I ended up coming across six bad guys! If not for Young Master Su’s appearance, I would have been doomed!”
With that said, Demoness Ji puffed out a breath of air and stuck out her tongue, as though she was still experiencing lingering fears.
Her words were indeterminable – if Su Zimo had not experienced it himself, he would not have doubted her.
Furthermore, judging from the emperor and Ji Yaoxue’s expressions, Su Zimo realized that neither of them knew what sect Demoness Ji was from!
“Silly child!”
The emperor shook his head helplessly.
Demoness Ji continued, “Later on, I pressed Young Master Su for his residence and background so that father could reward him immensely. However, Young Master Su left right away and I couldn’t find him even after a long search.”
“Ah, I got it!”
Demoness Ji revealed a look of realization as she clapped her hands together and smiled. “Father, did you find Young Master Su to reward him after knowing about this matter?”
The emperor remained silent and smiled bitterly in his heart.
No matter if Su Zimo had deceived him or killed a soldier of the Imperial Army, this was someone who had saved two of his daughters after all.
Initially, the emperor’s attitude towards killing Su Zimo was complicated to begin with and he didn’t have a strong determination to kill the latter.
Now that this happened, the emperor had completely given up on killing Su Zimo.
However, he was worried about something else.
Circling his gaze between his two daughters and Su Zimo, the emperor sighed softly to himself.
He pondered for a while before saying in a deep voice, “Yan’er, I have something else to discuss with Su Zimo. It’s been a long time since you’ve met your sister. You two can leave first.”
“But, what about him? I’m finally able to meet Young Master Su and I’m not going to let him get away again!”
Demoness Ji pouted and hugged Su Zimo’s arm tightly.
Two soft mounds pressed against Su Zimo’s arm, slightly warm and extremely bouncy – he stiffened instantly.
The emperor said in an exasperated manner, “Don’t worry, I’ll let him go after saying a few words to him.”
“Thank you, father.”
Demoness Ji smiled sweetly and walked to the side with a gentle voice. Tugging Ji Yaoxue by the palm, she chuckled. “Let’s go, sister! We’ll wait outside.”
“Yes.”
Ji Yaoxue nodded.
Since the emperor was willing to say that, Su Zimo’s life was naturally not in danger. As such, Ji Yaoxue could finally feel relieved.
The two sisters left the Rain Admiration Pavilion hand in hand.
