The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1137 - 1136: Taking Risks

"What omen, Manager, I can't quite understand what you're saying?"Tang Rao never told the servants about the dream he had, so they thought Tang Rao was making a fuss over nothing.

"It's nothing, you can go now."

Tang Rao dismissed the servants, and when he was alone and dizzy, he wondered where the body might go.

"There's plenty of time for conquest, enough time to find the body, but Li Qi Qi being alone now is very dangerous."

If Li Qi Qi could be shrunk or enlarged and carried by Tang Rao, he would feel more at ease.

"Tang Rao, Tang Rao!"

Li Qi Qi called out from not far away.

During this time, everyone was focused on Li Qi Qi, as it concerned who she would eventually be betrothed to, which was a matter of great importance.

"Qi Qi, what are you doing here?"

Speak of the devil, and here she was. To ensure Li Qi Qi's safety, Tang Rao was even considering using his connections within the Kao Shan Sect.

"I got drunk, don't know what happened, and when I sobered up, I just wanted to see you."

Her bright eyes showed no other emotion.

Tang Rao believed that Li Qi Qi truly missed him.

"Qi Qi, during this period, how about you stay somewhere else?"

When Tang Rao said this, he wasn't completely decided in his heart.

"Somewhere else?"

Having lived on the island all her life, even leaving home was difficult. The idea of living somewhere else was something Li Qi Qi had never considered.

"Where to? Where else can I stay?"

Tang Rao thought hard once more: "Go outside, I have a safer place out there, better than staying with the Li Family. You can also relax there."

Liu Da was someone Tang Rao could trust, and his brothers in the Kao Shan Sect were reliable as well.

"I trust your arrangements."

Li Qi Qi trusted that Tang Rao would never wish her harm, and anything he did was for her benefit.

"Alright, I'll arrange it for you."

Tang Rao, as a partner, was quite competent. He was a man of his word, and in the blink of an eye, he took Li Qi Qi out of the Li Family.

"Brothers, I'm back."

Tang Rao returned without the Big Beard disguise, and Liu Da and the others initially thought he came to cause trouble and were ready to attack him.

"You're getting bold, daring to hit even your own brother."

Tang Rao's voice was unaltered, and Liu Da found it familiar, so he stopped.

"Big brother?"

Liu Da called out, unsure.

Scratching his head, he couldn't see the connection between Tang Rao and the Big Beard.

"As long as you recognize me as your brother, everything's fine. I thought with a different face, no one would recognize me."

Tang Rao's skill in disguise was truly legendary.

"Big brother, where's your Big Beard? And that bulky physique? Are you saying your appearance from a few days ago was fake?"

The younger brothers felt a bit anxious seeing their brother change.

Fortunately, Liu Da recognized Tang Rao and, knowing his skill in disguise, admired him without any ill thoughts.

"When I first arrived in the Divine Realm, I wasn't familiar with it, so I changed my appearance to stay safe. I'm here today to ask for your help."

Oh?

It was rare for Tang Rao to seek help from Liu Da and the others.

Only then did Liu Da and the others focus their attention on the woman beside Tang Rao.

She was a clean and graceful woman, dressed in a pale yellow and white tube-top long dress, draped in a sheer scarf that shielded against the cold. The sash was semi-opaque, revealing her flawless, ivory arms like jade, making her even more alluring.

"Big brother, just say what you need. Among brothers, what can't be discussed?"

Liu Da spoke up, with Liu Er echoing, and the others joining in chorus.

"This is my wife, your sister-in-law. She's the eldest daughter of the Tingzhou Li Family. No one knows yet that she's been betrothed to me. In a few days, when the conquest begins, I'll be going into retreat for a while to train and won't be around. So, look after her for me, okay?"

Tang Rao already had a wife. As a newly arrived lower deity, he managed to win the hand of a middle deity family's daughter. Which of the middle deities present could accomplish such a feat? Probably none.

"No problem, looking after sister-in-law is our business too. Big brother, we haven't told you yet, but we discovered a secret passage in the house. However, the passage has too many traps, and every time we tried to enter, it would make a grinding noise. We've never been able to get in, so we waited for you to see if you had any ideas."

A secret passage?

When Tang Rao bought this house, he already knew it wasn't ordinary. He was well aware of the good things hidden in the secret passage.

After all, the Little Hedgehog, that treasure-seeking Divine Weapon, had long coveted this feng shui treasure land.

"Where is it? Take me to see."

Tang Rao suppressed his inner excitement, not showing his emotions on his face.

"It's beneath the fake mountain in the backyard. I'll take you there."

Tang Rao had only been to the fake mountain once when looking at the house, but the mountain seemed like it was growing out of the ground. How did those good things get inside it?

The backyard of the house was quite spacious, and back then, Tang Rao thought of setting up multiple swings for the kids to enjoy, and spending his days watching his woman, enjoying life. But looking at it now, the fake mountain had eroded over the years, and as it crumbled, the truth at its base gradually emerged.

"Big brother, it's right here."

"This area, all of it!"

Beneath the fake mountain was hollow, and the entire area under the mountain was full of tunnels. When Tang Rao merely thought of acquiring what lay below, a volley of poisonous swords began shooting out quickly from the entrance. Each sword was powerful. Fortunately, Tang Rao dodged swiftly, or he would have been impaled.

"This place is too dangerous. We're all brothers here, so don't go in. If anything happens, let me, your big brother, go first."

Li Qi Qi had followed along. Seeing Tang Rao preparing to go in alone, she couldn't help feeling worried.

"Tang Rao, do you really have to go? Is it really necessary?"

Several swords flew out from there earlier. Was it worth the risk for Tang Rao?

"Don't worry, I have experience."

Saying there's miasma inside, Tang Rao had an anti-miasma potion. As for the swords, he had the Golden Armor left by the old salty fish. If any other danger arose and he couldn't react, he'd consider himself unlucky.

"Tang Rao, don't..."

Just as Li Qi Qi wanted to dissuade Tang Rao further, he had already jumped in.

Countless swords shot out with force, and Tang Rao was just flesh and blood. Was jumping in like that really safe?

"Tang Rao, how could you do something so foolish?"

Li Qi Qi sat on the ground and cried sorrowfully.

"Sister-in-law, don't cry. Big brother's fate is charmed; nothing will happen to him. Rest assured."

But really, how could Liu Da and the others be so sure?
