King of Assassins - Chapter 30
Chapter 30: Attractive Deity Vs. Lackey
Wei Zhenzhen was a little afraid. She couldn’t help but ask Jiang Xuejun, “Sister Jun, did something happen to him?”
Jiang Xuejun’s frowned and said, “He’s not showing any signs of movement. He’s not even breathing. It’s really bizarre.”
Her Source Power Level had reached Level Four, and she had exceptional eyesight. She’d noticed at a glance that Gao Xuan wasn’t breathing. He didn’t show any signs of life.
Even if a person was holding their breath, you would still be able to detect minute movements. However, Gao Xuan was like a corpse. He was motionless.
However, a Source Power expert could hold their breath for ten minutes without a problem.
Gao Xuan was soaking in the water. His skin was as fair as jade, and his muscles were taut and his limbs slender. His proportions were perfect.
Even though Gao Xuan was sprawled on the surface of the water, his figure was still shockingly beautiful.
Zhao Yunlong, who was tall and muscular and had tanned skin, also had an exceptional figure. However, he was like a lump of meat compared to Gao Xuan in the pool. No one would look at him as long as Gao Xuan was around.
Obviously, Gao Xuan wasn’t naturally this fit. He must’ve gotten this physique through training. Only through training could he achieve a perfect balance of strength, agility, and form.
Anyone could see that he was an expert just by looking at his back. His Source Power Level must have reached at least Level Three.
Out of the people at the scene, no one except Jiang Xuejun would be a match for Gao Xuan.
Jiang Xuejun told Wei Zhenzhen, “Don’t worry. An expert like this wouldn’t drown in a swimmig pool.”
However, Wei Zhenzhen’s face was fraught with worry. She paced back and forth on her little feet and hated the fact that she couldn’t jump into the pool to pull Gao Xuan up.
The rest of the people were also irritated. They had come to seek revenge for Wei Zhenzhen, yet they were all standing around under the sun, and Wei Zhenzhen had started worrying about their enemy.
Zhao Yunlong couldn’t take it any longer. “I’ll get him up.”
But just as Zhao Yunlong was about to dive into the water, Gao Xuan, who’d been sprawled on the surface of the pool, suddenly flipped over and said, “Don’t come down here if you’re going to be dirty.”
Zhao Yunlong was shocked. He was about to curse, but when he saw Gao Xuan’s wet face, he was stunned.
The afternoon sun was glaring. The beads of water on Gao Xuan’s head and body shone incandescently under the sunlight. It made him look like a deity.
As a straight man, Zhao Yunlong only liked beautiful women. He didn’t care what other men looked like.
However, Gao Xuan’s appearance suddenly made him understand what the phrase “flawlessly handsome” meant.
Zhao Yunlong instantly understood why Wei Zhenzhen liked Gao Xuan. Just his appearance alone warranted no other reason.
“D*mn you. You’re quite handsome!” Zhao Yunlong accidentally said out loud what he’d been thinking.
The rest of the group didn’t mock him for it. They all felt the same way.
No matter what Gao Xuan’s character was, his appearance alone would make any man jealous.
They’d pee themselves if they looked like that.
Even Jiang Xuejun, the most experienced and calm out of all them, was also stunned for a second. She had to admit that Gao Xuan was the most handsome man she’d ever seen in her life.
In terms of appearance, he triumphed over any man or woman she’d ever seen. That included superstars and the like.
Gao Xuan’s shut eyes wasn’t a defect. Instead, it left room for the imagination. It gave his perfect face a mysterious, unruly quality.
After all, his appearance was just that—an appearance. But his demeanor came from within him. A person’s demeanor was an expression of his personality, cultivation, cultivation level, self-cultivation, personality, and life experience combined. It was even a reflection of the soul.
Jiang Xuejun could resist Gao Xuan’s appearance, but she couldn’t help but be attracted by Gao Xuan’s demeanor.
Of course, this wasn’t love. It was merely a liking, an appreciation.
It was like suddenly understanding the beauty behind an art piece. That itself was worthy of reflection.
Jiang Xuejin was a little conflicted. Why was such an exceptional man a scumbag?
However, if she thought about it, if he wasn’t a scumbag, he wouldn’t be so unrestrained.
A vagrant like this wasn’t someone a pure young lady like Wei Zhenzhen could control.
Jiang Xuejun saw that no one was going to speak, so she stepped forward and told Gao Xuan, “I’m Jiang Xuejun. We’re here today to discuss Zhenzhen.”
Gao Xuan told Wei Zhenzhen, a little perplexed, “You can come and discuss any business between us with me. Why did you bring a bunch of outsiders?”
Wei Zhenzhen had wanted to settle the score with Gao Xuan, believing that she was right. However, she felt a little guilty now that Gao Xuan had scolded her. “I, I…”
She didn’t know how to explain herself. Her face turned red and she started stuttering.
Jiang Xuejun couldn’t tolerate the situation. She said, “Gao Xuan, aren’t you embarrassed that a man like yourself buillied Zhenzhen?”
“Oh, how did I bully her?” Gao Xuan turned his head to look at Jiang Xuejun. Even though his eyes were shut, it felt like he could see everything that was happening around him.
Jiang Xuejun had heard about Gao Xuan from Wei Zhenzhen and knew that he had spiritual perception.
However, Jiang Xuejun was still a little surprised when she saw it in person. Gao Xuan’s spiritual perception wasn’t visible, yet it seemed like he could clearly see everyone’s expressions.
Furthermore, his expressions and movements were all very natural. They didn’t have the caution and restraint that a blind man’s would.
However, this person was shameless. He was clearly a scumbag. He knew no shame.
Jiang Xuejun said, “You took advantage of Zhenzhen,” Jian Xuejun said. “After you slept with her, you didn’t want her anymore. You only lusted after her body and beauty. You didn’t care about her feelings at all.”
“Sister, you must be mistaken. She’s clearly the one who’s lusting after my body and beauty. She’s not satisfied with having played with me once and wants to own me over an extended period of time.
Gao Xuan shook his head and said, “Even though you guys are rich and powerful, you should mind yourselves.”
“Nonsense. I love you.” Wei Zhenzhen was a little angry. To think that Gao Xuan would describe their relationship like that.
“Then what do you love me for? Don’t you love my flawless appearance and my perfect body?” Gao Xuan asked, amused. “You don’t even understand me. What could you love me for besides my good looks?”
Wei Zhenzhen had no rebuttal.
The rest of the group also felt that Gao Xuan was right and couldn’t refute this.
Jiang Xuejun felt a little awkward. Their group had come to question the perpetrator, yet they couldn’t refute Gao Xuan’s words.
Jiang Xuejun had to admit that what he said made sense.
Wei Zhenzhen was clearly after Gao Xuan because of his good looks and perfect body!
However, they couldn’t let the matter end this way. Even though what Gao Xuan said made sense, he was still a scumbag.
“But wasn’t it wrong for you to dump Zhenzhen?” Jiang Xuejun asked. “You’re a scumbag, right?”
Gao Xuan was very honest. “I am a scumbag. I’ll admit that.”
Jiang Xuejun was unable to say what she’d wanted to. This man was too shameless.
Jiang Xuejun thought for a moment, then said, “Then apologize to Zhenzhen.”
“I’m sorry, Zhenzhen. Let’s just be ordinary friends in the future. A scumbag like me isn’t a good fit for you…”
Gao Xuan lowered his head and apologized without hesitation, far exceeding Jiang Xuejun’s expectations. It also made Wei Zhenzhen feel really uncomfortable.
Wei Zhenzhen had brought along a group of people with the intention of beating up Gao Xuan and airing her grievances for her. However, after seeing him like this, she couldn’t bear to let them hit him.
She felt indignant. Even though Gao Xuan had allowed her to save face, he hadn’t given her what she wanted.
Tears poured down Wei Zhenzhen’s face. She didn’t say anything. She only looked at Gao Xuan with her teary, almond-shaped eyes.
The afternoon sun was intense. Gao Xuan, who was standing in the pool, was a little bright and dazzling. For some reason, Wei Zhenzhen felt a pain in her heart.
Jiang Xuejin felt a little pity for her when she noticed her pain, and hugged her. “There are a lot of good men in this world. Let’s forget about this scumbag.
Wei Zhenzhen had been trying to hold it in, but when Jiang Xuejin started consoling her, she couldn’t any longer. She hugged Jiang Xuejun and wailed, “I don’t want anybody else. I only want Gao Xuan. I only want him…”
Jiang Xuejun looked extremely awkward. The rest of the teens looked even more so.
Zhao Yunlong couldn’t stand it any longer. After toiling for the entire day, they had been reduced to spectators there to fill the numbers.
He pointed at Gao Xuan and shouted, “Come up, Gao Xuan. I’m good for nothing if I can’t beat you to death today.”
Gao Xuan raised his eyebrows. “You want to fight? Fine. Don’t run away. Whoever runs away is a b*stard.”
He wouldn’t lay a finger on Wei Zhenzhen. He wasn’t that much of a scumbag! The same went for other beautiful women.
However, he wouldn’t think twice about fighting a fool.
Zhao Yunlong became even angrier when he saw how arrogant Gao Xuan was. He roared and was about to jump into the pool when the waiting Wei Zhenzhen suddenly screamed, “Zhao Yunlong, don’t you dare!”
Her sudden scream scared Zhao Yunlong out of his wits. He turned to look at Wei Zhenzhen in disbelief. “Zhenzhen, I’m voicing your grievances for you.”
“This is mine and Gao Xuan’s business.” Wei Zhenzhen pointed outside. “Scram, scram quickly…”
Zhao Yunlong’s face turned bright red. Wei Zhenzhen impolitely scolding him in front of all these people had dealt him a million points of damage.
Even though the rest of the people didn’t like Zhao Yun Long, they turned to look at him with a look of pity. This was really awkward!
Zhao Yunlong had held back his anger all day, but couldn’t do anything to release it in the end. All he could do was glare at Gao Xuan and leave in a huff.
The rest of the young men also felt that the situation had turned into a chore and left with Zhao Yunlong.
Gao Xuan got out of the pool and told Wei Zhenzhen and Jiang Xuejun, “The sun is really strong today. It’s extremely bad for the skin. Why not come and cry in the house?”
