Chapter 122: Chapter 122: Pitiful Lord! Time For Revenge!
Silence hung in the air after Ma Li left the room. The city Lord stared at his wife and gulped his saliva before speaking.
"Shi Jie, Dear wife! what brings you here?"
"So you still remember that I am your wife? I thought you might even forget about me after visiting whores outside!!"
"???"
Several question marks appeared on Ma Mingli's face hearing her wife's accusation. He only ever had a single wife because he loved Shi Jie. He never cheated on her because he never found anyone other than her attractive.
*Boom*
It was definitely not because she was more powerful than him.
Feeling the sudden pressure on him, his face turned grim. Before he could think of a way to find out where she got this misinformation, Shi Jie made her move.
"Argh!!"
A painful sound escaped his mouth, which also echoed in the empty courtyard.
Ma Li, who was hiding outside the hall hoping to hear something, blushed when she heard the painful groan of her father and escaped.
'Mother is domineering! I will definitely become someone like her!!'
(A/N: *Sweat drops* What did I just create..)
.

.
"Is that true?" Shi Jie asked sharply while looking down at her feet.
Under her feat, Ma Mingli was beaten up black and blue by her to the point even Ma Li might not recognize him.
"It's true, I never cheated on you, that woman is someone who came from the main branch of the Guild.
Since I don't want to offend them, I told Gu Jin to make sure no one causes trouble for her."
While explaining he was cursing Gu Jin who dared to betray him like this. If he had really misunderstood his words, why couldn't he just keep them to himself? Why did he have to push him down the cliff like that?
Hearing his plea, Shi Jie found those words convincing. She knew that her husband did not have the galls to cheat on her but the information had clouded her judgment and she got a little carried away.
Feeling the cold glare on his back softening, Ma Mingli heaved a sigh of relief.
Seeing his battered appearance, Shi Jie felt ashamed of her actions and hurriedly pulled him up.
'If the word of what happened here got out, no one might take this city lord seriously. I need to make sure nothing like that happens and Gu Jin needs a little training it seems.' Ma Mingli thought with a dark look on his face, he was relieved thinking that the servants had left the room when Shi Jie came here. So there was no way that this information might get leaked.
"I am sorry dear, it's just I don't know what I would do if you really cheated on me." Shi Jie hugged him gently and acted coyly in his arms. Her words caused the man's lips to twitch.
'What do you mean you don't know what you would do!!! You just did everything!! Don't tell me you want to kill me too?!!'
Ma Mingli started screaming inside his heart complaining about what kind of woman he fell in love with.
What he did not know was that there was a chance that his last assumption might come out to be true.
Seeing the look of dissatisfaction on her husband's face, Shi Jie's eyes sparkled with a knowing light.
She unbuttoned the top of her dress revealing her deep cleavage. Her snow-white peaks naturally attracted the sight of the bruised city lord.
Shi Jie leaned on Ma Mingli's shoulder and whispered in his ears sensually.
"How about this? I will do the thing you always wanted me to do~"
While saying those words, Shi Jie licked her lips with her wet tongue.
*Gulp*
Her actions were enough to make his mind start daydreaming. He gulped his saliva unconsciously as he took a deep breath of her wife's scent.
"Really?"
"Of course. How about we give Li'er a younger sibling too~"
Seeing that she was getting the result she wanted, She Jie hammered the last nail which made the city lord's eyes Light up.
He looked at her with a fierce glare, he could not wait for the night to arrive. If it was in his hands, he might have ripped their clothes and started doing it here but his duty as the city lord came in between them.
Shi Jie felt her insides trembling seeing his gaze on her. She really liked it when he was dominating but her husband was sometimes too wimpy to even spank her.
She also wanted to have another kid now and she could use this chance as an apology, so it was like two targets with one stone for her.
With a happy smile on her face, Shi Jie walked out of the hall. She also tied up her clothes before walking out.
Ma Mingli immediately ordered the servants to bring all of the day's work so he could finish it as soon as possible.
His personal advisor could not understand what had gotten into the city lord but he was happy that the man was motivated for a change.
Everyone was also confused about why the City Lord was wearing a mask but they dared not to ask because once in a while he would have a weird phase where he would do things out of the blue.
It was not their place to judge so they just ignored his actions.
Back in the Forbidden Forest!!
A boy came out of the cave and made his way towards a huge beast that had almost killed him a few days ago.
The boy was none other than the child of destiny, Yuan Ming.
After being unsuccessful in finding the treasure he came to look for, Yuan Ming came across a spirit beast that was able to see him even under his concealment technique.
He started to have doubts as to whether this technique was even real or not because he was discovered while using it not once but twice now.
After barely being able to save himself from the beast by running away, he started finding beasts to amplify his strength. He wanted to break through the peak of the Qi Gathering Realm so that he could kill the beast.
Now that he was finally at the peak of the Qi gathering Realm he was ready to kill the beast.
"Roar!!"
Hearing the familiar roar, A feral smile appeared on Yuan Ming's face as he charged straight ahead.
He still had activated the concealment technique out of habit. Before he knew it he arrived in the area where the voice came from.
*Boom*
