“Alright, alright, I’ll continue. Look, you’ve been following me, wanting to kill me. You had such a good opportunity just now, you could have waited for Wan Jin and the others to beat me half to death, then come and finish me off. Why did you save me?”

Wan Lei asked.

“If you were defeated by Wan Jin, they would have continued to violate Feng Silu. At that time, I wouldn’t necessarily be able to defeat them.

So, I had to join forces with you first, defeat them, and then continue to kill you! In fact, if you hadn't turned back just now, I would have had to come and save Feng Silu alone.”

Qi Manyao said.

What a silly girl, telling me everything. The key is, if you had acted on your own, the most likely outcome would have been that both of us would have been trapped here.

Wan Lei shook his head with a wry smile.

The other party wanted to kill him purely out of a sense of justice, not because of any personal grudge, and had even saved his life just now.

Wan Lei really couldn’t muster any killing intent towards someone like that.

What’s more, the other party was a seemingly clever but actually foolish, simple-minded girl.

“Little girl, you’re not a qualified assassin. As an assassin, you’re too soft-hearted, even willing to save a villain in order to do good, and that villain is even your target.”

Saying this, Wan Lei couldn’t help but shake his head and laugh.

“In that situation, if I wanted to save Feng Silu, I had to join forces with you. You don’t expect me to join forces with Wan Jin and the others, who I can’t even beat, do you?”

Qi Manyao said, frowning.

“Alright, alright, I won’t argue with you. What’s done is done, let’s just leave it at that. We’re going home to sleep, you go back and sleep too.”

Wan Lei waved his hand and was about to leave.

“Come back, I haven’t killed you yet.”

Qi Manyao raised the giant axe in her hand, pointed it at Wan Lei, and shouted angrily.

Hearing this, Wan Lei felt that the other party was even more adorably impossible. Even in this situation, she was still thinking about killing him.

“Listen, Qi Manyao, let me analyze it for you. From the moment you revealed your identity, you had already lost. You’re such a goofball.”

Wan Lei said seriously.

“What do you mean I’ve lost? We haven’t even fought yet, are you sure you can beat me? And I am not a goofball!”

Qi Manyao said.

“There are only three possible outcomes if you try to kill me now.

First, you kill me. Okay, let's say you killed Sui Xiaohang as well, but you wouldn't kill Feng Silu too, would you? Although she tricked me, her crime doesn't deserve death, otherwise you wouldn't have saved her.

But if that happens, after I die, she will tell my family about this. Believe me, my family will definitely find her, especially since Wan Jin and the others know that Feng Silu was involved.

In that case, you will be endlessly pursued by the Wan family.

Second, you fail to kill me, and I escape, or we are both severely injured. In any case, I don't die, and I return to the Wan family. You will still be pursued.

What do you have to fight against the Wan family with, as a small Initial Force realm cultivator? If you try to kill the only heir of the Wan Southern Prefecture Lord's lineage, the Wan family will definitely kill you!

Third, you lose, and I kill you.

Three possible outcomes, but your fate is only death. Understand?

What else can you be but a goofball?”

This analysis stunned Sui Xiaohang and Feng Silu. They were only concerned about Qi Manyao’s combat power and never thought about Qi Manyao’s fate.

Qi Manyao, however, was not afraid at all and said solemnly, “I’m eliminating harm for the people. As long as I can kill you, my death will be worthwhile and glorious. Eliminating evil is equivalent to promoting good. Killing you is the same as saving countless people.”

Looking at Qi Manyao’s awe-inspiringly righteous appearance, Wan Lei was dumbfounded. He even wanted to crack open her head to see which screw was loose.

Damn it, his own life was the most important thing. What was the point of talking about anything else when you didn’t even have a life?

Could it be that you’ve been brainwashed by some cult?

Wan Lei couldn’t reason with this stubborn girl, shook his head, and got up to leave.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Qi Manyao couldn’t help but become furious, and swung her axe towards Wan Lei’s head.

Hearing the sound of the approaching wind behind him, Wan Lei immediately swung the Thunder God’s Hammer in his hand backwards.

Boom!

After a loud noise, both of them took several steps back.

Both of them had suffered injuries to varying degrees before, and they were both uncomfortable under this hard collision.

“Why are you such a stubborn idiot? I told you, whether I die or not, you will definitely die!

How about this, seeing as you saved me, you can leave. We will keep today’s events a secret. As long as you don’t continue to pursue me, I won’t deal with you. Is that okay?”

Wan Lei said helplessly.

“No, I must kill you!”

Qi Manyao said without hesitation.

“Alright, since that’s the case, if we can’t reason with you, we’ll beat you until you understand.”

Wan Lei was also angry. Why couldn’t this dead girl understand human language?

This time, Wan Lei took the initiative to attack. He threw the hammer directly, forcing Qi Manyao back, and then picked up the hammer and condensed lightning to strike her.

He knew lightning, and so did Qi Manyao.

The lightning emerging from the hammer and axe collided in mid-air, creating a violent explosion.

Seeing the other party’s lightning, Wan Lei’s heart stirred. He simply withdrew his own lightning and guided the other party’s lightning into the Thunder God’s Hammer.

The powerful current entered Wan Lei’s body through the Thunder God’s Hammer, making him feel incredibly comfortable.

Seeing Wan Lei’s lightning retreat, Qi Manyao thought that his lightning was not as good as hers, so she pressed her attack, continuously releasing lightning to attack Wan Lei.

Wan Lei didn’t expose her, and just happily absorbed the lightning.

The two fought for a long time, and gradually, Qi Manyao also noticed something was wrong.

No matter how stupid she was, she could tell that Wan Lei on the opposite side seemed to be getting more energetic as he fought.

“Damn it, it seems I have to use my ultimate move.”

Qi Manyao gritted her teeth. Her figure rose into the air again, and the thunderclouds in the sky that had dissipated re-condensed.

Coming with this move again? I just snatched your lightning before, you haven’t improved at all.

Wan Lei simply stopped tangling with the other party. He wasn’t pretending anymore, he was the Thunder God, and he could control your lightning.

He saw Wan Lei raise the Thunder God’s Hammer high, and a bolt of lightning entered the thunderclouds in the sky. Then, relying on his Thunder God Soul’s perfect control over lightning, he instantly seized control of the thunderclouds.

Seeing that the other party had seized control of the thunderclouds in an instant, Qi Manyao gritted her teeth angrily and immediately released her cultivation and divine sense to try to regain control.

However, how could a small Initial Force realm cultivator compete with the Thunder God in terms of lightning?

“Don’t bother, will you surrender?”

Wan Lei asked seriously.

“Impossible, even if you kill me today, I will never surrender. A scholar can be killed, but not humiliated!”

Qi Manyao said through gritted teeth.

Alas, what a stubborn girl.
