QT: The Rescue Of The Miserable Bigshots
Chapter 198 - 7.28

Chapter 198: 7.28

Lou Yan, who secretly vowed to make Fang Qi’s life a living hell, became furious when he returned to the Golden Palace with Jiang Jiamian in his arms.

The person was gone.

This time, even Jiang Jiamian was surprised, "He’s gone?"

Should it be said that he is worthy of being the male protagonist?

He could actually escape successfully even from such a situation!?

Not to mention that he was already seriously injured and unconscious, and his cultivation and spiritual power were sealed by Lou Yan. Just the fact that this place is deep in the demon cultivation world, if he walks out, he will be torn to pieces by all kinds of demon cultivators!

And Fang Qi just disappeared like that!

This protagonist’s halo is really dazzling.

"Someone was here."

Lou Yan didn’t think that Fang Qi had escaped on his own. He closed his eyes slightly, carefully sensing the lingering aura in the air. After a moment, he opened his eyes with a swish, "Is it the breath of a demon cultivator or a bird?"

Jiang Jiamian: "..."

"Ah, ah-choo!"

Ming Ye, who had just left not far away, suddenly sneezed. He paused, rubbing his nose with a puzzled look, "Who’s cursing me behind my back?"

Su Jinzhou: "..."

Huh?

It turns out that even the mighty Demon Prince is still very much a believer in common folk beliefs.

"Why did you save this man?" Ming Ye flew through the sky alongside Su Jinzhou, his eyes fixed on the feather drifting ahead, "I sensed a trace of Heaven’s breath on him. He’s someone specially blessed by the heavens."

Su Jinzhou laughed dryly.

This is the male protagonist.

The plot’s biological son.

However, it was normal for Su Jinzhou to know this, after all, he was a transmigrator.

But as a native of this world, how did Ming Ye know that Fang Qi was specially favored by the Heavenly Dao?

"Are you wondering why I said that?"

Ming Ye caught the surprise in Su Jinzhou’s eyes and let out a low chuckle, "My race was born with the ability to comprehend the Way of Heaven. The higher the cultivation, the more I can sense fragments of fate and luck. Even if it’s just a sliver, catching even a glimpse of Heaven’s secrets is enough to shift the course of many things."

And this Fang Qi, at first glance, is a man with great luck.

However, there was one very strange thing he couldn’t see clearly.

That is to say, alongside Fang Qi’s great fortune, radiant like shining light, there was also a layer of black mist, faintly clinging to him and constantly shifting, indicating that Fang Qi’s good luck may not be static.

Something, or someone, is interfering. If it continues to shift like this, even Heaven’s blessing might not be enough to protect him.

"So that’s how it is."

Su Jinzhou sighed quietly. So he wasn’t the only one with a cheat. Ming Ye, too, possessed the gift of foresight and was able to glimpse the secrets of Heaven.

No wonder, in the original plot, despite being the Demon Prince, he never opposed the male protagonist outright, but instead chose to go with the flow. During the war between the three realms, it was as if he had foreseen everything. He seized countless opportunities for the demon race and skillfully avoided the crisis of destruction.

"Fang Qi... Even now, someone dares to save him. But it doesn’t matter, I won’t rest until he’s dead."

Lou Yan’s lips curled into a cruel smile.

"Why waste your energy on him?" Jiang Jiamian reached out and grabbed his arm, "Aren’t you supposed to focus on me in the Golden Palace? Do you still have the time to care about insignificant people?"

"Of course, I’m glad that you think so."

Lou Yan’s hand gently caressed Jiang Jiamian’s chin as he leaned closer, just as their lips were about to meet, he stopped and whispered, "But, I want to avenge you. Shouldn’t you be happy?"

That Fang Qi almost killed Immortal Jiang! He must not keep his life!

"Happy." Jiang Jiamian said softly. He didn’t dare deny it. He had to coax him now, "But now you and I have just experienced a life-and-death situation, and I want to take a good look at you."

Lou Yan’s eyes heated up. Jiang Jiamian’s words were so intimate that he almost lost the ability to think.

He closed his eyes and leaned in, their lips brushing in a fleeting touch.

Jiang Jiamian finally couldn’t help but cup his mask between his palms. "Can you take it off?"

Lou Yan paused, "Aren’t you afraid?"

Jiang Jiamian met his eyes directly. "Don’t play dumb, those scars are nothing to you now. It all depends on whether you want to show them."

Lou Yan chuckled, "I thought you asked me to take off the mask because you didn’t mind my ugliness, but it turns out, you are greedy for my beauty."

Jiang Jiamian: "..."

"Then don’t take it off."

Jiang Jiamian muttered through gritted teeth as he slowly closed his eyes, a silent gesture of resignation.

The lips soon felt warm, the two halves soft and whole, no longer chilled by the presence of a mask.

Jiang Jiamian was stunned for a moment, then slowly opened his eyes. The face before him was breathtaking, so close, so extremely beautiful, charming enough to captivate everyone.

Long, elegant brows framed his phoenix eyes, his features carved with delicate precision, skin so pale and translucent it shimmered like morning frost. When his gaze dropped, he saw lips, soft and blurred, gliding slowly over his own, tasting more than touching.

Jiang Jiamian felt that at that moment, his heart skipped a beat.

"What’s wrong?"

Seeing his dazed look, Lou Yan briefly released his lips. His narrow black eyes glanced up at him from the side, and a low and slightly hoarse voice came out from between his teeth, "Don’t you recognize me?"

Jiang Jiamian swallowed quietly and licked his lips that felt dry again after being kissed just now, "I regret it."

Lou Yan blinked, "Regret what?"

Jiang Jiamian instinctively lifted his hand, as if to touch his face, but let it fall midway. He had almost forgotten that he was nothing more than a prisoner now.

Jiang Jiamian gave a hollow laugh, "Nothing."

Of course, he regretted it. The wasted spirit stones were one thing, but the stupidity of never actually getting Lou Yan was even worse.

Now... even if he wanted to, he couldn’t.

Without cultivation, and under Lou Yan’s control, he was just an ant that could be crushed to death at any time.

He truly regretted it.

"I don’t care what you regret, just don’t try to escape from my palm."

Lou Yan curled his lips and smiled, the smile on his bright face without the mask was naturally more dazzling than before.

Even the brilliance of the Golden Palace seemed to dim.

Jiang Jiamian stared at that enchanting face with greedy eyes, aching to reach out, shake him, and shout that he won’t run away!

Who wouldn’t fall for someone so gorgeously beautiful?

Only a fool would run away.

Of course, because of his personality, no matter how obsessed he was on the inside, he had to appear reserved and forbearing, wearing an expression of aloofness and restraint.

Lou Yan picked him up effortlessly, walking toward the back hall without noticing anything, "This time, it was Immortal Jiang who said I should focus on him. But I suppose I forgot to mention, delay is not the same as mercy. Just because I’m not going anywhere right now doesn’t mean I’ll actually let Fang Qi go."

However, it was rare for Immortal Jiang to take the initiative, so he would let it pass this time.
