《Life of a Villain》Chapter 38: Threat (II)
Advertisement
“If you don’t want your family to see tomorrow’s morning, say no,” Andy said, his lips curled into a smile as he stared at the man in front of him.
The room fell silent as everyone turned their attention to the man in the black robe, who had a slight smile on his face and blue eyes that were peering at the Shi clan’s patriarch.
While Lu Yong had a stony expression on his face, Lu Yuan’s fists clenched his fists and his hate-filled eyes stared at the man in front of him. Shi Yi’s eyes welled up with tears, and a drop of water rolled down her cheeks as she bit the corner of her lips and her veins were visible on her neck.
As soon as those words reached his ears, beads of sweat formed on the patriarch’s skin. His breathing became hurried, and his heartbeat sped up. He sat up straight and looked around the room, his gaze darting to everyone. He gulped his saliva, took a deep breath, and cracked his mouth to respond, but Lu Yong cut him off before he could say anything.
“Aren’t you going a little overboard?”
But Andy’s voice rang out in the room, and he turned his eyes to Lu Yong.
“Isn’t your job done here? Or do you want to eat your words?” Andy said, as his gaze shifted to Lu Yong.
Lu Yong froze on the spot, his lips pursed as he stared at the man in front of him.
Andy sighed as a rainbow-colored fruit appeared in his hand, which he threw at Lu Yong.
“This is your reward; you may disappear now.”
Lu Yong caught the fruit. As he stared at the fruit in his hand, he appeared to be frozen, and his eyes seemed somewhat lost.

A voice reverberated throughout the hall as everyone turned to look at the fruit in Lu Yong’s hands.
“What are you doing to me? What did I do to you? Isn’t my beauty and talent sufficient for you? Why did you smile at me when all you wanted to do was...” Shi Yi sobbed, her body flinching as she heaved heavily and her teary eyes locked on Andy’s.
Andy’s attention turned towards Shi Yi, and a smile formed on his face as he licked his lips.
“Don’t you understand why I’m doing this? Do you truly believe your talent can be compared to mine? What a joke. You should be grateful that I’m interested in you; otherwise, you wouldn’t even be able to lick my shoes. Do you truly think your talent is as high as the heavens? People like you serve their customers in brothels where I’m from. Be grateful that I’ve shown an interest in you.” Andy chuckled and said,
As soon as she heard the words, her legs gave way, and she slumped to the ground, her eyes losing their luster as she muttered, “Brothels.”
Lu Yuan moved quickly and crouched on the ground to support Shi Yi.
Andy’s eyes were peering into the scene unfolding before him, as the words full of dominance escaped from this mouth,
“Remove your hands from her.”
When those words echoed throughout the hall, everyone in the hall’s heartbeat sped up as they felt a slight suppression. Meanwhile, Lu Yuan’s hands froze on Shi Yi’s shoulders as he slowly turned to face Andy.
“You,” The Shi clan patriarch rose shakily, his face flushed red, and his bloodshot eyes fixed on the man in front of him.
Andy’s gaze shifted from Lu Yuan to the Patriarch, who was visibly shaking. He suddenly chuckled and said, “Me, what? Oh, I forgot, you’d want something in return, right? Take this..” Suddenly, another rainbow-colored fruit appeared in his hand, which he threw at the man in front of him.

While the Shi clan patriarch’s dumbfounded eyes were fixed on the fruit in his hands, Lu Yuan’s hatred-filled voice echoed throughout the hall.
“How could you do this to Shi Yi?” Lu Yuan’s red eyes were glaring at Andy, and his hands were tightly clutching Shi Yi’s shoulders, who was slumped to the ground, lost in her thoughts.
Andy’s smile faded away as his gaze was drawn to Lu Yuan. He suddenly disappeared and reappeared at a distance, clutching Lu Yuan’s neck, who was struggling desperately while dangling in mid-air.
“Trying to be a hero, huh?” You have hot blood, don’t you? Taking care of a damsel in distress. Didn’t I tell you to get those filthy hands off her? Didn’t I say that if you look at me with those eyes again, I’ll gauge those eyeballs out? Did you think I was joking?” Andy’s deep voice echoed through the hall as his blue eyes locked on Lu Yuan.
“STOP!” A suffocating pressure spread throughout the hall as Lu Yong’s cold eyes fixed on Andy. Shi Yi fell unconscious as the Shi clan patriarch sagged to the ground, coughing blood. Even Lu Yuan bled from the nose and ears.
Instead of succumbing to pressure, Andy slowly turned to look at Lu Yong with a smirk on his face, his Reddish blue eyes staring at the stupefied Lu Yong. “Do you think you could put me under pressure with your shallow Profound Realm cultivation? What a joke? I believe you are living a very comfortable life and have met no one you should not provoke. Do not make any mistake that you will regret for the rest of your life, and for this fool,” As he finished speaking, he turned to face the unconscious Lu Yuan, who was bleeding profusely from all over.
“He deserves the punishment, but given how much effort you put into saving such a worthless life, I’ll only take one eyeball,” Andy’s hand moved slowly towards Lu Yuan as he slowly plucked out the left ball with his two fingers. Lu Yuan flinched as his left eye bled profusely and some yellow puss oozed out. Andy then threw the body at Lu Yong, who was standing dumbfounded.
“Now disappear from here”
