Chapter 5017: 5.0769 Just Asking if You're Scared

"It's real, it's not a nightmare, it's me, Qiao Qiao. You've been hitting your husband for quite a while now, haven't you felt the substantial difference between this nightmare and me?"

"Your husband is alive and well!"

You think you can flash that peerless handsome face and act cute, and I'll let you off?! Lord Qiao Qiao stared at him expressionlessly, silent for a long moment.

Mo Lian grew anxious. He turned to look at Feng Chen, who was quickly drifting towards them, and pointed at him. "Look, Rotten Peach Blossom is here. You're right, both of us jumped out of the Sacrificial Sea Abyss, completely unharmed, Qiao Qiao, look, look, look. Your husband is fine, and Rotten Peach Blossom is also fine."

As he spoke, Peach Blossom Immortal Venerable floated over with a smile, a hint of disdain in his eyes as he watched Mo Lian trying to act cute. Does coaxing Qiao Qiao require acting cute? Qiao Qiao dislikes cute things the most; this will only backfire! Watch me.

He leaned in, grinning, "Qiao Qiao, long time no see. Have you missed me?"

"Thump." Lord Qiao Qiao punched him without hesitation, directly hitting him in the face. The handsome face of the latter immediately filled with a bewildered expression. Huh? I'm so gracefully charming and peerlessly handsome, my stunning looks haven't even had a chance to work, and I've already been punched? Strange, wasn't she hitting Mo Lian? Why did I get caught in the crossfire...? This isn't how it's supposed to go?!

After all this trouble, they've finally reunited. Shouldn't Qiao Qiao be leaning on them pitifully, crying and complaining? What, what, what? What kind of plot is this?

Lord Qiao Qiao now expressionlessly pulled out a pitch-black disciplinary ruler from her sleeve.

Mo Lian's eyelids twitched rapidly. He quickly raised his hand to grab her wrist. "Qiao Qiao, your husband is right here. You, who are you going to hit?"

"Deceiving Qiao Qiao!" Qiao Mu angrily rebuked, turning her hand and smacking the disciplinary ruler towards Peach Blossom Immortal Venerable. Her hand had hurt from hitting him earlier, and she suddenly remembered that hitting people should be done with a disciplinary ruler—it doesn't hurt her hand and still makes a satisfying thwack.

Peach Blossom Immortal Venerable's mouth twitched. He stumbled and ran wildly towards Duan Yue, constantly shouting, "Qiao Qiao, that was just a temporary measure, not to deceive you or abandon you, ouch..."

Qiao Mu swung the disciplinary ruler. The poor Peach Blossom Immortal Venerable could only raise his hand and meekly take the hit, then theatrically cried out, "Ouch, ouch, ouch."

"You tricked Qiao Qiao into going down together, and then you didn't want Qiao Qiao halfway through!"

"You threw Qiao Qiao back up and even sealed off the path with a barrier!"

Every single one of these things was their doing! Stinky liars!

Peach Blossom Immortal Venerable frantically ran to Duan Yue's side and quickly pushed Duan Yue in front of Qiao Mu. "If I had to do it again, I'd still do the same. Your safety is paramount; I couldn't disregard you."

"Compared to you, what is Mo Lian? In a critical life-or-death situation, saving you must come first."

Mo Lian glared furiously, blurting out without thinking: "Then why did you selflessly offer to die in my place at the bottom of the Sacrificial Sea Abyss?"

"You even offered to die for him??" Lord Qiao Qiao roared.

Duan Yue's mouth twitched: Can't you two stop courting death? At this crucial moment, would it kill you to say a few soft words to her...?

Lord Qiao Qiao was indeed furious. She swung the disciplinary ruler at both of them. Poor Duan Yue was just trying to break up the fight, but he ended up getting hit more than Peach Blossom Immortal Venerable. This was truly unparalleled.

Lord Qiao Qiao angrily took action. Just ask if you're scared.
