Chapter 4964 — A Wretched Woman

"Exactly. Isn't it enough that he has beauties like Wang Xinyan and Huang Xiaotao? Don't tell me he won't spare even a withered flower like you—he's far too lecherous!" Chen Qiang chimed in with a grumble.
Qin Chan cast them a look of disgust. Recalling what Wei Zhao had said moments ago, she said coldly, "Don't come looking for me anymore. From now on we keep to our own sides of the river; otherwise don't blame me for being unkind."
"Huh?" Qi Dong and Chen Qiang were both stunned, staring at this woman in disbelief. Qin Chan had always been so obedient before them; as long as they promised her cultivation resources, there was basically nothing she would refuse to do—they could play with her however they liked. So how was it that after being summoned by Wei Zhao just once, she immediately turned her back on them?
"You little slut, what kind of nonsense are you spewing? Don't you want cultivation resources anymore? Or do you want us to find a few men and take turns on you?" Qi Dong immediately threatened viciously.
"Don't think that just because you're now a skilled cultivator at the early Xuan Ascension stage, you can escape our grasp. Let me tell you, with your meager strength, in Morning Star Academy you'll only ever be at our mercy—unless you can find yourself a powerful backing!" Chen Qiang sneered, his expression dark.
In this Giant's Path trial, like the vast majority of Morning Star disciples, these two had failed to break through to Xuan Ascension. Apart from lacking the strength and foundation, they had also been unlucky enough to run into a freak like Wei Zhao, and so before Qin Chan, now at the early Xuan Ascension stage, they were both naturally a head shorter, able to intimidate her into compliance only with their background and backing.
"From now on, I won't let you lay a single finger on me. If you don't believe it, come and try." Qin Chan gave the two of them a freezing look, then turned and walked away.
Qi Dong and Chen Qiang watched Qin Chan's retreating figure with ugly expressions, yet did not dare move a muscle—because in that instant they had truly felt something in her they had never felt before: killing intent.
Any other Morning Star disciple, even with the strength, might not truly dare to move against two second-generation cultivators like them. But Qin Chan was different—she was a woman whose heart had died. If she truly meant to do something, she would have no scruples whatsoever. In the past she had been willing to give up and sink into degradation; now that defiance had risen in her heart, she was naturally just as unrestrained. Would such a woman shrink from killing?
"Damn it! That little slut has really turned the world upside down. When we get back this time, we'll have to give her a proper lesson—just an early Xuan Ascension cultivator, what's so great about that!" Chen Qiang spat viciously, then turned to Qi Dong and said, "With our backgrounds, finding a few skilled fighters from outside the academy in Morning Star City is easy as can be. Qi Dong, are you in?"
"Hmph, not a chance," Qi Dong said, shaking his head decisively.
"Why? I remember you being pretty bold—since when did you turn so spineless, afraid of even a little slut at the early Xuan Ascension stage?" Chen Qiang said in surprise.
"I'm bold, but I'm not stupid." Qi Dong glanced at him and curled his lip. "A mere Qin Chan is of course nothing to fear. But she's got Wei Zhao behind her now—doesn't that scare you?"
"Uh..." Chen Qiang was instantly silenced. What sort of figure was Wei Zhao? He was Qing Xuanzi's master, a monster who at the early Xuan Ascension stage could take on a Mountain-Opening stage giant single-handedly. How could he possibly not fear such a heaven-defying existence? (To be continued..)
