Chapter 2429: You Belong to Me
Ning Shu’s limp body was carried by two servant girls and she was thrown back into the room.
It went without saying that the room was still a mess of splintered wood, plates, and porcelain fragments. When Ning Shu was thrown in, she was inevitably hurt.
Lady Wang glared at Ning Shu. “You’d better not try to escape again. I was originally planning to release you after a while, but since you’re this inconsiderate, I’ll be keeping you locked up.”
“Sanlang was so tenderhearted in letting you live. Really, if you had just died, we wouldn’t be suffering such inconvenience.”
“Even if we were to sell you, it wouldn’t make up for the damages in this room. If you think I’ll be replacing these, keep dreaming.” Lady Wang locked the door while complaining.
Ning Shu inhaled deeply. Her arm had been stabbed by a piece of porcelain when she fell. On top of that, she felt powerless. An extremely cold and gloomy feeling accumulated in her body.
Shortly after, a force burst out of Ning Shu’s body.
Li Sanlang floated in front of Ning Shu. “Don’t try escaping again. You’re my wife, you belong to me. Next time, I’ll kill you.”
Ning Shu gradually regained control of her own body and lifted up her injured arm.
Li Sanlang crouched down and looked at Ning Shu’s arm. “I gave you the opportunity to be obedient. Now it’s your fault that you’re injured.”
Ning Shu expressionlessly raised her eyes and saw Li Sanlang’s frightening face.
Li Sanlang stretched out a pale hand and touched Ning Shu’s wounded arm. “You should behave next time. If you don’t, I’ll cut off your feet and you’ll never run again.”
Ning Shu lifted her head to look at Li Sanlang. She silently began planning. She had no tools or cinnabar on hand. She wouldn’t be able to do anything to Li Sanlang with her current strength.
She would probably just end up annoying Li Sanlang even more.
“Liu Xiaoya, your appearance really isn’t great,” Li Sanlang said.
Ning Shu wiped away the blood on her arm. “So what if I’m ugly? I don’t have to look at myself. You’re the one grossed out.”
Liu Xiaoya was a country girl. She spent a lot of time outside so her skin was rough and tanned. How could she possibly be pretty?
If she hadn’t been married off, her entire life would have been spent working in the field. Although it would be difficult, she would at least have had a peaceful life.
“Anyway, I won’t disdain you,” Li Sanlang added.
Ning Shu ignored him. Why would she care whether or not he disdained her? Was he expecting her to be deeply grateful to him?
What she looked like was her business alone.
The room was a mess. Ning Shu stood up to clear a spot where she could sit cross legged and cultivate.
Li Sanlang floated beside Ning Shu and watched her tidy up. He asked Ning Shu, “Do you loathe me? Even though I already said I’m ok with you being ugly.”
Ning Shu: Ha. Ha. Ha…
Li Sanlang suddenly clutched Ning Shu’s neck. “You don’t like me?”
Frick, this psycho!
Ning Shu struggled to breathe. Her fingers moved rapidly to form a talisman.
The talisman struck Li Sanlang’s body and his chest hissed and emitted black smoke.
Ning Shu clenched her fist and struck Li Sanlang, but it passed through his body.
Physical attacks were useless against Li Sanlang.
“These little tricks have no effect on me. You’re just provoking me.” Li Sanlang clutched Ning Shu’s neck tighter.
Ning Shu’s lungs felt like they were being pricked by needles.
Why the heck was she always the one that got injured? First she was sealed into a coffin and now she was being strangled by a ghost.
Ning Shu silently vowed to crush Li Sanlang.
Ning Shu’s fingers flew. The incantation nearly emptied all the spiritual energy in her body.
A golden talisman struck Li Sanlang and he was forced to release her.
