Chapter 815: Chapter 811: I’m Only Doing This for You!
After a while, Xiao Tian finally reacted and said, "Now you care about your reputation, huh? But when you were framing me earlier, didn’t you consider your own reputation?!"
Sun Miaohan just waved her hand and said, "Don’t worry about those details! Besides, by doing this, I can confuse the enemy and make them think I’m not much of a fighter!"
"But that’s not the most important thing!" she continued, suddenly changing the subject, "There’s an eighty percent chance I did this for you!"
"Ha..." Xiao Tian couldn’t help but want to laugh out loud, saying, "Before you speak, can you ask yourself if you’d believe the words coming out of your own mouth?"
Sun Miaohan, however, explained with a serious look, "Look, at that time, in front of everyone, wasn’t it you who took me away?"
"So what if I did?!" Xiao Tian replied casually.
"That’s where the problem is. Think about it, after you took me away, my belly suddenly flattened." Sun Miaohan blinked and said, "At that time, they’ll surely think you’re a jerk, sacrificing our... our unborn child..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Xiao Tian lifted her up and gave her a smack on her pink bottom.
"Ouch, stop it, stop it, I’m wrong!"
Sun Miaohan begged for mercy somewhat insincerely, but inside, she couldn’t help but feel secretly pleased. According to her own standards, at this point, she had conquered about thirty percent of Xiao Tian.
And since starting is always the hardest part, with this thirty percent as a base, Sun Miaohan was confident she could quickly raise her favorability in Xiao Tian’s heart to the max!
For Sun Miaohan, Xiao Tian was indeed the toughest target she’d ever had to conquer.
In the past, those men wouldn’t even get close to her before becoming infatuated, so much that they’d be willing to risk their lives for her.
The more difficult ones would at most hold her hand, and that was it!
But when it came to someone like Xiao Tian, who was impervious to both praise and criticism, she could only explain it with ’no pain, no gain’!
However, in Sun Miaohan’s mind, the more important reason was that she really wanted to maintain her unbeaten record after the 518th bet with Ji Dantong from childhood until now.
Thinking of the moment when Ji Dantong, faced with the brutal reality of defeat, would have to bow her head, Sun Miaohan felt that the current hardships were actually no big deal.
...
As it turns out, no matter what Xiao Tian thought, Sun Miaohan’s information was indeed correct.
Just as the last rays of sunset were about to disappear, the first wave of advance troops finally arrived, albeit late.
Although few in number, these people were all first-rate experts, fundamentally different from the spectators that Sun Miaohan had previously attracted.
In comparison, the onlookers Sun Miaohan drew in would be lucky if ten of them could defeat even one of these few experts.
And that’s just comparing raw strength.
If you factor in combat skills and experience, then twenty or so spectators might not even take down one expert.
This real gap in strength made Xiao Tian feel a bit troubled. Looking at those experts in the distance, whose on-paper abilities were comparable to his own yet seemed wary of him, he couldn’t help but furrow his brows.
"See, my intel was spot on!" Sun Miaohan said triumphantly, "I told you, a large number of experts would come for you. Look, here they are!"
Watching Sun Miaohan so excited, Xiao Tian was a bit surprised at her way of thinking: "Now isn’t the time to be fixating on this, is it?"
Sun Miaohan pondered for a moment and nodded, saying, "It’s true that now isn’t the time to fixate on this, but there’s no need to be too anxious, right? While those people seem formidable, you’re not a pushover either!"
"The real experts haven’t shown up yet, so no need to worry too much!"
No sooner had Sun Miaohan completed her sentence than a familiar figure appeared in the distance. The person was exuding a fierce aura, with Protective True Qi swirling violently around him. Just a glance at him revealed his extraordinary strength.
With such an obvious display of True Qi, everyone present could guess who he was without needing any further clues—the true high-ranking member of the Water Drop Organization, Thunder King Salon.
Beside Thunder King Salon was a swirling mass of black mist, barely noticeable in the dark, who was none other than the highly emotional first assassin, Hidden Needle.
Due to Hidden Needle’s hard-to-detect presence, the experts who arrived earlier only perceived Thunder King Salon.
Yet even Thunder King Salon’s sole presence was enough to make them somewhat uneasy.
The spectators had heard of Thunder King Salon’s two prior battles with Xiao Tian. With such antagonists meeting once more, anything could happen.
With this in mind, the first-arriving experts subconsciously retreated a bit, wary that a face-off between Xiao Tian and Thunder King Salon might erupt at any moment, potentially engulfing them too.
However, after standing still for a while, Thunder King Salon did not strike as expected. He merely let out a cold snort like muffled thunder before turning and disappearing into the darkness.
With Thunder King Salon and Hidden Needle gone, Sun Miaohan chuckled wryly: "Those two look like formidable opponents, finally worthy of facing."
"You could tell there were two of them?!" Xiao Tian asked, amazed.
Sun Miaohan immediately put on a ’don’t treat me like an idiot’ look and said, "Isn’t it obvious with an awakened innate ability? What can I not see?!"
This off-hand remark piqued Xiao Tian’s interest in the so-called sect behind her. The familiar sense of certainty, reminiscent of what Ji Dantong had brought him before, washed over him once more.
Like she was reading his mind, Sun Miaohan blinked: "If you agree to be my boyfriend, I’ll tell you all about the force behind me, how about it?"
While speaking, she deliberately ran her tongue over her pink lips, the seduction level truly off the charts!
"Have you gotten so deep into the act that you can’t stop?" Xiao Tian remarked, "It’s a huge loss for the entertainment industry that you’re not an actress!"
"Thanks, but with you praising me like that, I’ll find it hard not to get conceited!" Blushing, Sun Miaohan covered her mouth to giggle, her beautiful phoenix eyes filled with joy.
Xiao Tian sighed helplessly, unsure if Sun Miaohan really couldn’t tell sincere praise from jest, or if she was choosing to act ignorant.
Yet based on Sun Miaohan’s previous actions, the latter seemed far more likely!
Seeing that Xiao Tian didn’t respond, Sun Miaohan dropped the playful facade and shifted the topic to the current situation.
However, her first words startled Xiao Tian.
"Though those two are strong, and killing them might not be easy, I do have a few methods to defeat them to the point where they can’t fight back."
Sun Miaohan’s words made Xiao Tian’s eyelids twitch; her confidence was a bit too overwhelming, wasn’t it?!
