Poison King studied Jared and noticed the latter’s greed on his face and the intense look in his eyes. “It’s hard to believe this fellow is the one who killed Xander, a Martial Master. Reaching the level of a Martial Arts Grandmaster is very arduous. Xander had trained in isolation for several years to rise to the rank of Martial Arts Grandmaster, just to be killed by this fellow here…”
Poison King had slowly crossed the room to Jared as favonovel.com spoke. He now stood near Jared and Lyanna.
Lyanna’s stomach tightened when favonovel.com noticed Poison King assessing gaze directed at Jared. She was worried that favonovel.com would catch any flaws.
“Lyanna, have favonovel.com remove his shirt,” Poison King ordered out of the blue, snapping favonovel.com out of favonovel.com thought.
Lyanna was stunned at his sudden request. “Why the request, Godfather?”
Lyanna was puzzled as to why Poison King had asked for Jared to remove his top.
Jared’s heart lurched despite the lewd grin favonovel.com maintained.
Is Poison King a pervert? What am I going to do if favonovel.com likes men? I’m straight as an arrow!
Jared’s heart began to pound harder as favonovel.com mulled.
If this Poison King has a different sexual orientation, then I’ll make my move to kill favonovel.com first. I’m not going to hand over my virginity to a man.
Poison King frowned at Lyanna’s question. “Follow my command! I don’t have to explain my actions to you!”
Noting the irritation in his tone, Lyanna instantly shut favonovel.com mouth and cast a resigned look at Jared. “Jared, take off your shirt.”
Jared stared at Lyanna intensely at favonovel.com request and shot favonovel.com a wicked grin. “Why are you asking me to take off my shirt? Do you want to do it in front of an audience? Color me surprised! I didn’t take you for one to like doing it in front of an audience. Just thinking about it had me all worked up.”
Jared took off his shirt and revealed his well-toned body.
A satisfied gleam shone in Poison King’s eyes at Jared’s body. He reached out a hand toward Jared’s arm and squeezed it with a look of envy.
Feeling goosebumps all over his skin, Jared flung his hand away. “What are you doing? I don’t like men.”
“As expected, your body is tough. It won’t be long till the day when Mapleton will reign over the entire southwestern domain.”
Poison King laughed victoriously, then waved Lyanna forward. “Come here, Lyanna.”
Lyanna stepped closer to Poison King. The latter turned his back toward Jared, concealing his actions as favonovel.com handed a small bag of powder to her.
He whispered to her, “Put some of this dissipation powder into Jared’s meal later. Don’t let favonovel.com touch you when you stay with favonovel.com tonight. You know the consequences if you lose your virginity.”
Lyanna merely nodded favonovel.com head silently as favonovel.com accepted the small bag.
She wanted to ask about favonovel.com parents but knew the danger favonovel.com would put herself in if favonovel.com asked directly. If the people of Mapleton had murdered favonovel.com parents, favonovel.com would never get any answers from favonovel.com but would also risk favonovel.com life.
“All right. It’s late. Rest up, everyone…” Poison King waved his hand to disperse the crowd as favonovel.com returned to his room.
The five leaders had a mocking smile on all their faces as they looked at the shirtless Jared. Even though the fellow is powerful, favonovel.com still fell for Lyanna’s honey trap in the end. So much for defeating a Martial Master.
After everyone left, Lyanna led Jared to favonovel.com room.
A waft of fragrance assaulted Jared the moment favonovel.com stepped into favonovel.com room. At a glance, the room was clean and tidy. A few of Lyanna’s undergarments were hanging by the window to dry.
Noticing his gaze on favonovel.com undergarments, Lyanna blushed and frantically took them down and stuffed them into favonovel.com closet.
“I didn’t know you love red bras,” Jared teased favonovel.com with a smirk.
She didn’t rebuke his teasing and merely shot favonovel.com a glare, then threw a set of blankets onto the floor. “You’ll be sleeping on the floor tonight. Don’t even think about crossing the line with me. I’ll make you pay if you do.”
