Chapter 173 - 174: Saint Heir Captive
Mu Can smirked at Zheng Ming’s female companion, causing the woman to cock her head and faint from fright, leaving Mu Can speechless.
"Am I really that scary?" Mu Can whispered to his silly little companion hiding in his hair.
Of course, the little companion shook its head; in its eyes, Mu Can was not only not scary, but also quite adorable.
However, in the eyes of Zheng Ming’s companion, the situation was different. Mu Can was now like a ferocious beast. He hadn’t even acted yet, and just an unkempt old man under his command had beaten Zheng Ming to the brink of life and death.
Mu Can hadn’t laid a hand on Zheng Ming’s companion, but he wasn’t nearly as courteous towards Zheng Ming. In an instant, Mu Can grabbed Zheng Ming, who had fainted, and held him in his hands.
"I declare that you’ve been kidnapped by me. Everything on you, including yourself, now belongs to me," Mu Can proclaimed loudly, announcing his sovereignty over Zheng Ming. To the uninformed, it might sound as if he was making a vow to a lover.
The onlooking crowd fell silent, finding it absurd that a Saint Heir from an Immortal World sect had become a prisoner in Mu Can’s hands.
"Uh!" Zheng Ming slowly regained consciousness, feeling the pain all over his body, not knowing how many ribs he had broken. Considering that, as a sect’s Saint Heir, Zheng Ming had been nurtured by all kinds of natural treasures from a young age, his physical strength had long surpassed the limits of the Mortal World. Even so, he had been beaten to the point of breaking bones by the crazy old man.
"Hey, that Zheng Ming guy, you’re now my slave, no longer any kind of Saint Heir," said Mu Can with a grin, flashing his white teeth, which in Zheng Ming’s eyes were exceedingly creepy.
