After being forced into marriage, the metaphysical master became the darling of the richest family.

Chapter 22

Li Wu felt that Yuan Gang's condition was not right.

He stood in front of An Jiuxi, too afraid to move.

She was afraid that Yuan Gang might suddenly punch An Jiuxi.

His muscular physique is really worrying.

Just as he was on guard, a hand reached out and pushed him aside.

"No need to knock," An Jiuxi said, waving her hand without even glancing at the glaring Yuan Gang. "Alright."

Yuan Gang, “…”

Does this woman think he's an idiot?

An invisible anger was about to erupt from his heart, but Li Wu went up and grabbed the doorknob and turned it.

Click.

The door just opened like that!

Yuan Gang stared wide-eyed in disbelief, "This..."

Isn’t this too ridiculous?

With a wave of his hand, the locked door opened?

Why doesn't he believe it so much?

Yuan Gang's brows furrowed so deeply they could trap a fly, and he reached out to push the door open.

An Jiuxi said, "I advise you not to open the door."

Yuan Gang glanced back at her, his expression gloomy and filled with unspeakable dissatisfaction.

He didn't know what was wrong with him; the more An Jiuxi said that, the more he wanted to go against her.

Yuan Gang reached out and pushed the door open.

As soon as the door opened, a cold, damp wind rushed in.

Yuan Gang was the first to be sprayed, his face covered in the spray.

His face grew even more gloomy, and a strange red light flashed in his eyes.

Li Wu stood beside him, peering into the house.

Because of this action, his body inevitably bumped into Yuan Gang.

It was a very light touch, but Yuan Gang suddenly got angry.

"Are you in such a hurry to be reborn? Why are you pushing and shoving!" Not content with just cursing, he also punched Li Wu in the face.

His fist was as big as a clay pot, and it created a gust of wind. If it really hit Li Wu's face, it would probably break his nose.

The two were so close that Li Wu didn't even have time to dodge.

They could only close their eyes and pretend not to hear.

At the critical moment, An Jiuxi grabbed Li Wu's shoulder and pulled him back.

Li Wu, who is over 1.8 meters tall, was actually thrown backward by her.

An Jiuxi stepped forward and swerved to the left to dodge Yuan Gang's fist.

With his other hand, he pointed to his brow, and an invisible golden light seeped into his forehead.

Yuan Gang stood frozen in place as if someone had struck his pressure points.

Li Wu staggered a couple of times to steady himself, and was stunned when he saw Yuan Gang like this.

"Sister Xixi, what's wrong with him...?"

An Jiuxi raised her hand and slapped Yuan Gang across the face. "Wake up!"

Li Wu hissed as he bared his teeth.

He felt pain just hearing the sound of that slap.

Yuan Gang's face was swollen from the beating. The red light in his eyes faded, and he shook his head, looking at An Jiuxi with a blank expression.

"How could I... hiss..."

He was halfway through his sentence when he winced in pain, "What happened to my face?"

“You were just corrupted by Yin energy, lost your mind, and almost hit someone!” An Jiuxi explained succinctly.

Yuan Gang was stunned and subconsciously looked at Li Wu.

Li Wu nodded emphatically in affirmation.

Yuan Gang reached out to touch his face, but the moment his fingers touched it, he winced in pain.

Why did he feel like he hadn't almost hit someone, but rather that he had successfully committed suicide?

An Jiuxi smiled slightly and didn't say anything more.

Li Wu changed the subject, "Sister Xixi, why didn't you let Yuan Gang open the door just now? There's something in this room..."

Before the word "what" could be uttered, a blood-red hand suddenly reached out from the room.

The sharp, black fingernails grazed Li Wu's nose, turning his remaining words into a distorted scream.
