Xue Fanxin ignored the shocked gazes of the surrounding people and walked leisurely into the city. As she walked, she saw an old man selling candied hawthorns by the side, so she walked over to take a look.

"Grandpa, how much is this candied hawthorn?"

"No… no money." When the old man saw the Lord of the Nether City behind Xue Fanxin, he was already frightened and could not even speak properly. In the end, he simply stuffed the entire batch of candied hawthorns to Xue Fanxin. "Miss, I'll give you all these candied hawthorns. It's free, it's free."

The old man selling candied hawthorns fled in a panic as soon as he finished speaking. He looked like he was quite frightened.

"Sigh… Grandpa…" Xue Fanxin only wanted to buy a stick of candied hawthorn to eat, but she had not expected to scare him. She felt quite apologetic, so she turned back and glared fiercely at the Lord of the Nether City, who was following behind her. She said unhappily, "Can you not follow me? It's very annoying."

"As long as you're willing to be my Madam, everything else can be discussed. You can do whatever you want."

This was a rare opportunity. If he did not take the opportunity to take Xue Fanxin in, it would probably be very difficult to obtain her again in the future, so he would not let go of this opportunity.

From the moment Xue Fanxin stepped into the Nether City's territory, she was destined to be his.

"City Lord, do you have any shame? If you don't have any shame, I still want face! I'm the current Ninth Imperial Consort and I am taken. I can't do such a thing as being fickle, cheating on others, not adhering to the wife's principles, and thinking of changing sides when I see someone else. Furthermore, my husband is thousands and hundreds of times better than you. Only an idiot will abandon him and choose you."

When Xue Fanxin said this, the entire venue exploded. All of them looked at their City Lord in shock and disbelief.

It turned out that the City Lord liked the current Ninth Imperial Consort.

However, the Ninth Imperial Consort was already a married woman. She was indeed not suitable to be the City Lord's Madam, but…

The Lord of the Nether City had not expected Xue Fanxin to announce her identity in public, which made him very displeased.

However, this matter could not be hidden in the end. It was good that everyone knew in advance.

Furthermore, others could not interfere with the woman he chose. He only needed to decide for himself.

"Ye Jiushang only announced to the public that you are the Ninth Imperial Consort. He did not officially marry you, so you are not really the Ninth Imperial Consort."

The Lord of the Nether City's words shocked quite a few people at the event location. Everyone watched and listened, wanting to know what the outcome would be.

Their City Lord and the current Ninth Lord were snatching a woman. They wondered who would win the beauty in the end.

"Back in the Nanling Empire, the Ninth Lord had already come to propose marriage. My grandfather had already agreed to this marriage…" Xue Fanxin originally wanted to argue with the Lord of the Nether City, but halfway through, she suddenly felt that there was no need to do this, so she could not be bothered to waste her breath. She said directly, "If you want me to be your City Lord's Madam, defeat my Ah Jiu first. Otherwise, whatever you say or do will be a daydream."

"Alright, remember what you said today. If I defeat Ye Jiushang, you will be my Madam."

"Wait until you defeat him."

"Where is he?"

"You don't even know where he is and you still want to defeat him. How ridiculous."

The Lord of the Nether City was so angry that his face turned green from Xue Fanxin's words, but he could not flare up and could only bear with it.

He indeed could not find Ye Jiushang. Although he had been recuperating recently, he had kept sending people to monitor Ye Jiushang's every move. However, he could not even find out Ye Jiushang's whereabouts, let alone anything else.

But so what?

One day, he would defeat Ye Jiushang…

Just as the Lord of the Nether City was thinking about the scene of defeating Ye Jiushang, a powerful and terrifying pressure suddenly attacked, suppressing him until he knelt on one knee.

What was going on?
