Chapter 14: I’m Back II
At the marquis' manor, a man quietly sat before the study table. His phoenix eyes were slanted and flirtatious. After leaning back lazily, half of his robe was open as his purple robe was gently raised by the gentle breeze. His attitude was domineering as he coldly glanced at the guard who was kneeling on the ground. "Have all of you still not found the person I ask you to look for?"
"Marquis." The guard's back had already long been drenched. Cold wind swished by and he could not help but shudder due to the cold. "That lady you mentioned did not have any specified looks nor surname, so I ... am unable to investigate."
The man who was originally sitting down quietly slowly stood up as his voice was a little cold. "I'll give you another half month's time to find that woman. If you can't, bring back your head to meet me!"
"I understand."
The guard slowly stood back up from the ground and retreated after receiving his orders.
His thighs were shaking. Every time he came to speak to the marquis, he needed great courage. Just his mighty aura alone was sufficient to make him unable to raise his head.
After the guard left, the man's eyes narrowed slightly. The humiliating scene from six years ago once again appeared before him.
The tea cup in his hand could not withstand his clench and with a thud, it turned into dust. The boiling hot tea splashed onto his large hand, but yet he did not notice it.
"How dare you rape me and even have the guts to escape! Even if you escape to the corners of this world, I will use my entire lifetime to drag you back out!"
Six years ago, he had just left the demon realm. His cultivation was being constraint and had caused him to fall into unconsciousness.
