My Fiancée Broke Our Engagement for Her Best Friend, but I Awakened the Chaotic Divine Body - Chapter 5:
Chapter 5: Just You?!
It wasn’t until the early morning light filtered through the window that Qin Xiu finally stood up.
“Nishang should be awake by now. It’s time to give her this surprise.”
He walked out quickly, but the moment he pushed open the gate to Yun Nishang’s courtyard, he heard sobbing from within.
“Please… as long as you let Qin Xiu go, I… I’ll agree to anything.”
Yun Nishang’s gentle voice was filled with pleading. Qin Xiu’s good mood instantly darkened. Then came a cold, mocking laugh that made his sword-like eyes flash with killing intent.
“Tsk tsk, that’s more like it. Being with me—even as a maid—is still better than being that trash Qin Xiu’s woman!”
Gao Yang?!
Inside the room, Yun Nishang curled up in the corner. Her flawless and delicate face was streaked with tears.
The terrifying thunder last night had startled her awake, even though she had taken calming spirit herbs to help her sleep. In her half-conscious state, she hadn’t thought much of it. But this morning, she learned it hadn’t been ordinary thunder—it had been Gao Yang awakening a spirit body, one even more powerful than her sister’s.
Yun Nishang knew that the first person Gao Yang wouldn’t spare was Qin Xiu. She had wanted to rush out and warn him to escape but was blocked inside the room by Gao Yang.
And he had directly declared that she would become his personal maid!
Yun Nishang felt deeply humiliated. She was still a noble lady, after all. Her sister had framed her, her stepmother despised her, and now she was to be treated as a maid to be toyed with?
She hadn’t even been able to resist her sister’s Water Radiance Spirit Body—how could she stand against Gao Yang now?
All she hoped was that Qin Xiu could get away safely and escape this nightmare…
“It’s early morning—why wear so many clothes?”
Gao Yang’s face was full of lecherous desire as he reached out to grab Yun Nishang’s waist sash.
Yun Nishang shut her eyes tightly. She knew this moment was unavoidable. All she could do was grit her teeth. As long as Qin Xiu could get away, she would end her own life.
“Qin Xiu… I’m sorry. In this life, you and I were never meant to be…”
But just then, the door was kicked open!
BOOM!
“Gao Yang, you’re asking for death!”
Gao Yang flinched from the shock, but when he saw it was Qin Xiu, his anger surged instead.
“You damn bastard! Daring to ruin my moment?!”
He hadn’t expected Qin Xiu to come. Even if he did, he should have turned around and left with his tail tucked—or at most, shouted uselessly from the doorway.
Seeing that Yun Nishang’s clothes were still intact, Qin Xiu exhaled a breath of relief. But his gaze remained cold.
“If you dare lay a single finger on her, I guarantee you won’t leave this room alive.”
Gao Yang laughed, “Trash, were you hiding in a corner crying all night? You really thought that was just thunder?”
“Nishang, go on—tell him what last night really was!”
Yun Nishang shook her head at Qin Xiu repeatedly. The last thing she wanted right now was for him to be here.
“Qin Xiu, you… you should go…”
“Last night… it was a heavenly phenomenon from Young Master Gao awakening a spirit body.”
Her head hung low, her body trembling as she sobbed, unable to meet his eyes.
What pained her most was that, in front of Gao Yang, she couldn’t even openly tell Qin Xiu to run.
But to her shock, Qin Xiu only let out a cold laugh, his tone full of contempt for Gao Yang.
“A spirit body? You? With that garbage constitution?”
Last night, it had clearly been the chaotic lightning of his own awakening as a Chaotic Divine Body.
“Damn it! If my aunt hadn’t stopped me, I would’ve killed you last night!”
Without a spirit body, he could beat Qin Xiu like a dog. And now that he had awakened one?
BOOM!
Gao Yang’s spiritual Qi erupted, and he lunged at Qin Xiu like a fierce tiger.
“My aunt said to leave you breathing. Then I’ll just crush your dog paws one by one until you hand over the treasure!”
“Nishang, watch closely. See how this trash gets stomped on like a dog by me!”
Having bottled up his rage all night, Gao Yang still held back a little—but he was using at least half his strength!
Yun Nishang’s face turned pale in an instant. Gao Yang was at the 5th stage Qi Refining Realm, and now he had a spirit body too.
This was fiercer than what her sister had done the day before!
“No!”
Her voice was full of agony as she tried to shield Qin Xiu—but she was too late.
Worse, Qin Xiu didn’t even try to dodge. She knew this involved his pride as a man, but this wasn’t the time to act tough…
Just as Gao Yang’s fist wind closed in, Qin Xiu moved like lightning and launched a sweeping kick—like a furious dragon lashing its tail!
BOOM!
With a deafening crash, Gao Yang flew like a broken kite, vomiting several mouthfuls of blood mid-air, and was sent flying out of the room into the courtyard.
CRACK…
He smashed into a tree so hard that the trunk visibly cracked. The sheer force of that kick was unimaginable!
“PUH!”
A horrifying footprint was imprinted on Gao Yang’s chest, with bones clearly sunken in.
Yun Nishang had just been reaching out to stop Gao Yang, but now her entire body was frozen like lightning had struck her.
Wh-What just happened?
Did Gao Yang just get kicked so hard by Qin Xiu that he coughed blood?
She stared at Qin Xiu in stunned silence. That handsome, resolute face now radiated cold dominance, as if he looked down on all creation.
“If my birthday had been just a few days earlier, you wouldn’t have even stepped into this courtyard.”
Looking at Qin Xiu like a god of slaughter, Gao Yang was so stunned he even forgot his pain.
“Trash… y-you… how?!”
He had awakened a spirit body! He was a heavenly chosen! How could he be unable to block a single kick from this trash?
Even without a spirit body, he was still at the 5th stage Qi Refining Realm!
Why?!
“Damn it! It’s all my aunt’s fault—I should’ve killed you just now!”
“You bastard, I’ll kill you!”
Gao Yang climbed up in rage and charged at Qin Xiu like a madman.
But what greeted him… was an even fiercer kick.
BOOM!
This kick sent Gao Yang flying all the way to the courtyard gate. He fell to his knees, coughing blood violently, hands pressed to the ground—and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t stand up again.
Illusion—this had to be an illusion!
That trash clearly didn’t have a trace of spiritual Qi on him!
What Gao Yang didn’t know was that, in Qin Xiu’s eyes, he didn’t even deserve to see him use spiritual Qi.
Qin Xiu didn’t even bother to shatter his delusion. “You think you’re a spirit body? Then keep dreaming.”
“But I’ll only warn you once—if you ever touch Nishang again, I’ll wipe out your entire Gao family.”
“Get lost.”
Gao Yang trembled violently from rage and humiliation. He couldn’t believe it. He had been crushed underfoot by someone who hadn’t cultivated for eighteen years!
“It must be his father’s treasures!”
“Damn it! With that many spirit herbs, even feeding them to a dog would make it strong as an ox!”
Gao Yang clenched his teeth. So that bastard had been hiding something all along!
“Qin Xiu, just you wait.”
“You’ve got a divine body? Fine. But you’re nothing but a puppet propped up by spirit herbs and treasures!”
“I don’t want your father’s treasures anymore—I’ll send them to your grave instead!”
Enduring the pain, Gao Yang staggered out of the courtyard, seething. He couldn’t accept it. Even before he had a spirit body, he could bully Qin Xiu like twisting a finger.
But now that he had awakened a spirit body, not only had he not even touched Yun Nishang’s hand… he’d been kicked twice by this so-called trash!
