Chapter 143: Chapter 143: Noah's Condition!
Hearing those words, Noah made his decision and gracefully accepted the material for his sacrifice. To him the whole Soaring Heaven sect was just meat on a chopping board, he could do anything to them in the name of revenge.
"Very well. I will agree to enter the domain but I have a condition." Silence hung in the room, as they waited for Noah to lay his condition in front of them. Ma Li narrowed her eyes as she thought about the various outrageous conditions a person could make.
The City lord already understood that the boy in front of him was not someone he could take lightly. He wanted to tread carefully with him, he could also sense the wariness coming from his wife.
To everyone except Ma Li and Xin Yan's surprise Noah turned in the direction where Ma Li was standing, the girl herself was not surprised but showed a hint of disgust because this was also one of the conditions she imagined.
To be precise, Noah turned to look at Elysia and sent a mental thought to her.
But chance she was floating beside Ma Li glaring at her with eyes that could kill her thousand times over.
Seeing the boy turning to look at their daughter Ma Mingli and Shi Jie misunderstood that he wanted their daughter. This was also Ma Li thought, he wanted her like all the horny people she met.
Just as both of her parents were about to lash out at him, Noah spoke again causing them to freeze in their place.
"If you are able to make a move against me and leave a scratch on me, I will follow your words in the Mysterious Domain but If you fail, you have to quietly follow my instructions in there.
Do you agree?"
Hearing the way Noah was talking to his daughter, Ma Mingli was first embarrassed that he misunderstood the boy but then he got enraged seeing that the way Noah was talking to Ma Li, he could not take it anymore and wanted to make a move against him.
Just as he was about to move, a hand stopped him.
He turned to see that it was his own wife who stopped him. She looked at him with a pale expression, sweat dripping from her face as she shook her head.
It was the first time he had seen such an expression in the eyes of his wife.
It was a look of fear! She was scared of something!
He caught her glancing at the woman still seated on the sofa calmly sipping the tea she was served.
He did not know what was happening, why would he be scared of a simple woman but he did not make a move.
Since Shi Jie was stronger than him, he thought there was something he could not see, while she was able to see it.
'Don't make a move, she needs to suffer a little to grow up and we cannot always look after her.'
Shi Jie sighed and let the boy act against her. Ma Mingli was reluctant but still agreed to his wife's word.
There was familial love and there was blind love. The familial love was a harsh love that parents use to teach their kids life lessons.
They want their kid to learn the sufferings of the world the hard way. Even though it hurts both the kids and the parents, they have to do it.
Even though they are aware that their kid might hate them for it, it is still necessary for their growth.
Blind love is the love where some parents pamper their kids to the extreme, never let them face any difficulties and cover their mistakes.
They do not want their kids to suffer and just give their kids the illusion that they are right.
This kind of love ends up destroying the kids, Ma Mingli was aware that he had a slight blind love for his daughter.
He was aware and so what?
How could he let his precious princess suffer?
But his wife was right, it was time for her to face a little reality. If the boy dared to go overboard, he would definitely intervene in between.
'Why did you stop me from acting right now?'
He could not help but ask again as he looked at his wife from the corner of his mouth.
'This woman is strong, she is either as strong as me or even stronger than me. I just received a telepathic message from her, saying not to interfere casually.
She assured me that her son would not do anything to our daughter besides "teaching" her a little. ' Ma Mingli could not stop his eyes from twitching hearing those words.
He did not even sense the flow of qi in the air and his wife got a mental transmission. He could not help but feel a little wary of the woman.
His thoughts started to wander but he was brought back to reality when his wife spoke again.
'I would have stopped the woman but right now I do not want to take any chances..'
Hearing her explanation, he sighed and agreed to her words. He understood what she meant by those words and he also did not want her to be in danger either.
Shi Jie looked back at the sight of her daughter confronting the handsome boy. She could help but become curious about their background.
Even though they were aware of everything about their lives, it felt like all of it was a lie and they have some secrets of their own.
There was no way their background was just a pitiful Long Family, she could feel it. It was definitely something from the women's side.
Shi Jie let her thoughts wander and could help but humor the thought of having him as her son in law. She did not think that his personality was bad or that he was a bad boy.
In fact she was aware that it was her daughter who went overboard with her words and made them angry.
She let out a long sigh and looked down, she caressed her stomach with with one hand and the other resting beneath her stomach.
