The moment the mask was removed.
A handsome face suddenly appeared in Leng Qingmei's cold, charming eyes.
But.
She let out a heart-wrenching scream: "No! No! No!"
"Impossible!"
"How could you possibly be Chen Nan?"
Leng Qingmei's scalp tingled, as if she had seen a ghost.
She had never expected that this mysterious person who could refine pills was actually that good-for-nothing Chen Nan.
She could not accept that her dignity had been trampled and played with by this man.
After all, in her eyes, Chen Nan had always been a good-for-nothing.
And she had even divorced him with a letter of divorce.
Arrogant as she was, she could put down her pride and dignity in front of others for the sake of survival.
But she could not accept that the person was Chen Nan!
"Speak, who exactly are you? Why did you disguise yourself as that good-for-nothing?" Even though she saw it with her own eyes, she still did not believe that the man in front of her was her ex-husband.
Her ex-husband was an illiterate good-for-nothing.
While the person in front of her was a master at the third level of Cai Yin Realm.
And he also knew the art of alchemy.
Therefore.
In Leng Qingmei's eyes, the man in front of her was definitely not showing his true face.
"Indeed, even if I become a cultivator and know the art of alchemy, in your eyes, I will still be a good-for-nothing." Chen Nan sneered through gritted teeth: "There is something I have always been curious about, why is it that in Master Lan's eyes, I cannot be more accomplished?"
"Are you really Chen Nan?"
Leng Qingmei felt as if all her strength had been drained. She leaned against the wall uncontrollably, her pupils filled with shock.
When Chen Nan uttered the title 'Master Lan'.
She had already believed Chen Nan's identity.
It was just that.
She truly could not accept this matter.
She stared at Chen Nan with eyes full of fury: "Why are you a cultivator?"
"Why are you proficient in alchemy?"
"We were clearly husband and wife."
"Why did you hide these abilities?"
Her face contorted, and her eyes were filled with hatred.
If she had known beforehand that Chen Nan was a cultivator and knew alchemy.
How could she have divorced Chen Nan?
Therefore.
In her eyes.
All the blame was on Chen Nan.
"What? We are husband and wife?" Chen Nan looked incredulous: "Miss Leng, are you joking?"
"When were we husband and wife?"
"Even if we had a marriage, did you ever consider me your man?"
"No, no, no!"
"In your eyes, I am not even as good as the servants of the Leng family."
"I wholeheartedly considered the Leng family's interests, and as long as the Leng family needed anything, I would step forward without hesitation."
"I was busy and helped out when your father got married."
"To put it bluntly, the only thing I didn't help with was the wedding night."
"What else did I not do my best to arrange?"
"When he died tragically, I wore hemp and filial piety, arranged the funeral, and sent him off."
"I ask, with all these things that Chen Nan has done, among the millions of people in Tongcheng, who can find any fault?"
"Who can say that Chen Nan did poorly?"
"But how did you repay me?"
"You divorced me with a letter of divorce."
"Heh!"
"They say hearts are made of flesh. When you divorced me, did you remember some of my contributions to the Leng family?"
"How is it that now, you have the audacity to say we are husband and wife?" Saying this, he whipped out a whip, hitting Leng Qingmei's shoulder, leaving a bright red whip mark.
Leng Qingmei let out a scream, clutching her shoulder, and squatted in the corner of the wall with a face full of shock and grievance.
"Bitch, do you feel very wronged?" Chen Nan roared: "You are not wronged at all. Everything today is your own doing."
"Especially you should not have told the Xia family about Ning Yinqiu and me."
Thinking of the grievances Xia Youwei had suffered today.
He whipped again.
If it were not for their past relationship as husband and wife.
If it were not for the host deeply loving this woman.
With his personality, he would have certainly killed her to vent his anger.
"Might makes right. I have nothing to say about how things have developed. Kill me or flay me as you please!" Leng Qingmei's eyes were dull, her heart filled with despair.
Chen Nan: "Don't worry, I won't kill you."
"Although we had no conjugal relations after marriage, we now know each other inside out."
"Even if your heart is cold and malicious, your appearance is still quite good."
"After all, you are the most beautiful woman in Tongcheng, the goddess in the hearts of countless people."
"The key is that you are very good at service and know many tricks."
"With you here, isn't it more comfortable than using my hands?"
Leng Qingmei suddenly felt as if her heart had been cut by a knife.
Her former sycophant was sparing her life, but it was because of her appearance.
What a great irony this was!
Chen Nan said: "Not only will I not kill you, but I will also give you opportunities. Even helping you enter the Ju Hun Realm is just an easy matter for me."
"But before that, I have a question for you."
"Do you regret it now?"
Leng Qingmei slowly raised her head, a hint of bitterness in her eyes: "What if I regret it?"
*Slap!*
Chen Nan mercilessly whipped her.
This whip landed directly on Leng Qingmei's right cheek, leaving a bright red whip mark.
"I asked you if you regret it, not for you to answer me back, understand?"
Feeling the burning pain on her face, the grievance in Leng Qingmei's heart churned like a stormy sea. She bit her lip, preventing tears from falling: "I understand, I understand."
Chen Nan asked again: "Then do you regret it?"
"I regret it!" Leng Qingmei lowered her head.
"Since you regret it, then our grievances are settled!" Chen Nan took out a pill: "Take this, this pill can heal your injuries."
"As long as you serve me wholeheartedly from now on, I will help you break through the bottleneck of the Cai Yin Realm."
"And help you become a strong person in the Ju Hun Realm."
He said and threw it to her.
Leng Qingmei swallowed the pill without thinking.
She needed to show Chen Nan her attitude.
Although her regret was not killing Chen Nan the first time.
But now.
She could not kill Chen Nan at all.
She could only look for a suitable opportunity.
The next moment.
The medicine took effect.
It made her head split with pain, and she clutched her head, letting out a scream: "What exactly is that pill? Why is my head splitting with pain?"
Chen Nan grinned and chuckled: "Don't be so surprised. Although your head is splitting with pain now, your soul power will break through in a while."
"But don't be happy too soon, that pill is a poison."
"As long as you please me, I will give you an antidote periodically."
"Otherwise, your soul will suffer a backlash."
"At best, you will wish you were dead, and at worst, you will become an imbecile."
*Boom!*
These simple words made Leng Qingmei's scalp tingle.
Her eyes were filled with tears: "I have already admitted my mistake, why are you still torturing me like this?"
A cold light flashed in Chen Nan's eyes: "If I don't do this, will you be willing to serve me in the future?"
