people who had just walked into the room, "Zihao, is this the so-called expert It's really disappointing!"The man who appeared suddenly was Li Mingxuan, while Lin Zihao and others, who were drinking w...Chapter 1196: Beautiful Taoist Nun

"Who is it" Summer answered the phone somewhat impatiently.

The voice on the other end of the line, indistinguishable as to gender, said, "Summer, Zhao Yujie is in my hands. If you want to find her, come to the Great Wall!"

"So it was you, you idiot, who kidnapped my wife!" Summer immediately became enraged, "I'll tell you now, you're as good as dead!"

"Summer, if you wish for Zhao Yujie to be unharmed, don't say such things," the voice sounded somewhat cold, "although I know that you are very powerful and can easily kill me, I also have the ability to easily kill Zhao Yujie. All I want is a deal with you. If you come to the Great Wall now - the place where you once flew with Princess Samara - then you will see me, as well as Zhao Yujie!"

After saying this, that indistinguishably gendered person hung up.

Summer leaped into the air and immediately flew towards the direction of the Great Wall.

During his flight, Summer called U Greene with his phone, "Don't worry about finding her. I know where she is. Don’t be concerned; I’ll bring her back soon."

Summer didn't give Zhao Gongzi a chance to speak and hung up the phone after speaking.

Above the Great Wall, at the highest point near Beijing, it was somewhat dark, but three figures could still be faintly seen standing here.

If one were close enough to them, they would notice that these three individuals are actually two women and a man.

Among the women is one wearing an elegant black evening gown with a diamond necklace around her neck that seems to sparkle even in the dark. However, compared to her natural beauty, both the gown and the necklace pale in comparison; if there were stars in the sky now, they would be outshone by her stunning face.

Her graceful figure and slender legs are particularly alluring, but unfortunately, few people get a chance to appreciate her beauty at this place.

However, currently, she wears an unnatural expression on her beautiful face. This isn't surprising as others in the same situation would likely be terrified and pleading for mercy already. The reason being that there's a sharp sword pressing against her tender neck.

This woman is Zhao Yujie, who was kidnapped not long ago—famous Mandarin pop diva and one of Beijing’s four beautiful flowers. Despite being snatched from an evening banquet with a sword at her throat, she remains relatively calm, showcasing remarkable psychological resilience.

The owner of the sword is also a woman. In contrast to Zhao Yujie's dazzling outfit, this woman dresses simply, but her attire would be considered bizarre in modern society because she’s dressed like an Taoist nun: a green robe and hair tied up high, resembling a female Taoist emerging from an ancient temple.

However, this Taoist nun's appearance was not inferior to Zhao Yujie at all; her face was enough to captivate the entire nation. Wrapped in a simple blue robe, she exuded an air of pride that made her seem more mature compared to Zhao Yujie. Although there was a cold and indifferent look on her face without Zhao Yujie's sweet charm, she had her own unique allure.

More importantly, despite the nun’s seemingly ordinary attire, she naturally radiated an exceptionally noble aura. Though their appearances were vastly different, when standing side by side, they shared a similarly regal presence.

Of course, this Taoist nun appeared to be clearly older than Zhao Yujie; while it was hard to determine her exact age, it felt like she was around thirty years old. From her appearance alone, she seemed about thirty as well.

The other man had a rather handsome face and looked slightly older than the Taoist nun, perhaps in his late thirties. He too was dressed in Taoist robes, but it wasn’t clear whether he came from the same temple as that nun.

Right now, this Taoist priest kept looking far away; apparently, he showed no interest in the two beautiful women nearby. What he seemed to care about most at the moment was something else entirely.

"What do you want with Xia Tian" Zhao Yujie finally couldn’t help but ask out loud. She had just heard this Taoist nun make a phone call to Xia Tian and learned that her kidnapping wasn't due to any offense against the Zhao family or anyone she herself had offended, but rather because of her relationship with Xia Tian.

When she first saw the nun making that phone call earlier, it seemed somewhat strange. After all, a person who appeared to be living in ancient times using a mobile phone just like someone from modern-day did look quite odd indeed.

"Once Xia Tian arrives, you'll naturally understand," the Taoist nun’s voice sounded peculiar, her tone tending toward neutrality, making it hard to discern whether she was male or female merely by listening to her speak.

"If you need something from him, don't use this method in the end; he doesn't like being threatened." Zhao Yujie looked at the Taoist nun. She had calmed down completely by now.

"Miss Zhao, I think there's been a misunderstanding. We're not asking anything of him, we merely want to make a deal with him," said the Taoist nun, her expression still indifferent. "And you are just part of that deal."

"He's here!" The male Taoist suddenly spoke.

The Taoist nun's face changed slightly. At this moment, Zhao Yujie also felt as if the air around her had frozen up; she could clearly sense both the nun and the man becoming tense, looking like they were facing a formidable enemy.

"My wife isn't part of your deal." An unhappy voice was heard then, getting closer and closer until Zhao Yujie saw that familiar figure appear less than ten meters away from her.

"Stop!" The Taoist nun suddenly shouted coldly. "Summer, if you take one more step forward, I'll kill Zhao Yujie! Although you're powerful, I guarantee it—nothing can stop me from killing her!"

As she spoke, the Taoist nun clenched her right hand tightly, ready to act at any moment.

Summer finally stood his ground and glared angrily at the Taoist nun. "You've kidnapped my wife and threatened me. I'm warning you—I'll have her back immediately or face certain death!

"In summer, if you want Zhao Yuxi to be safe and sound, then talk to us about a deal properly. Otherwise, even though I might die at your hands, Zhao Yuxi will die before me!" The nun's beautiful eyes were filled with intense coldness, her gaze making Summer truly feel the chill.

Summer had seen many gorgeous but cold beauties: Ye Mengying whom he met when descending the mountain, Leng Bingbing who followed him next, and Mei'er. In people’s eyes, they were all ice queen beauties. However, only Summer knew that their apparent indifference masked their passionate natures; they would display such passion only in his presence.

The truly cold and gorgeous beauty was actually Night Yu Mei. Her kind of coldness could freeze anyone into an ice queen, making them dare not approach her. She was so chillingly cold yet stunningly beautiful like a妖女 (demoness).

Yet whether it was Leng Bingbing or the other beauties including Mei'er, or even Night Yu Mei that wicked woman, they all gave Summer a different feeling compared to this nun before him. Even though Night Yu Mei was cold, she still looked like a normal human woman. But the nun’s coldness wasn’t just that—it seemed to subtly carry an aura of death!

This aura of death made Summer stand there hesitantly, not daring to act rashly, as he realized this pretty nun wasn't afraid of dying and might take Zhao Yuxi down with her at any moment.

Moreover, what made Summer even more reluctant to move was his realization that the nun was quite powerful. Even though she wouldn’t likely be able to defeat him, before he could kill her, she would have enough time to kill Zhao Yuxi. Thus, for the sake of his pretty demoness wife, he had no choice but to hold back.

"What kind of deal do you want" Summer asked.

"It's simple; give us Green Peak Mountain, and I'll return Zhao Yuxi to you!" The nun spoke clearly and concisely.

"Green Peak Mountain" Xia Tian looked at the pretty Taoist nun and suddenly realized something. "I was wondering why your voice sounded familiar, turns out you were the one who attacked Wife Meimei that night."

Turning to glance at the Taoist not far away, Xia Tian continued, "So it was you two who rescued Yuan Tianzheng that night. Hey, can you tell me if that foolish Yuan Tianzheng is alive or dead now"

"He's still alive but thanks to your grace, he isn't doing too well either. If he doesn’t go to Green Peak Mountain soon, he probably won’t last long." The pretty Taoist nun looked at Xia Tian with her cold and silent eyes. "Green Peak Mountain originally belongs to Yuan Tianzheng; we are merely reclaiming it for him. We know your capabilities and don't want to make enemies with you either, but our survival is more important to us. So if you hand over Green Peak Mountain to us now, we will ensure that we return Zhao Yujie unharmed to you from this day forward, and we won’t interfere with each other!"

Xia Tian stared at the pretty Taoist nun for a long time before looking at the Taoist beside her. Finally, he brought his gaze back to the pretty Taoist nun: "Hey, I have a question for you. How old are you"

"What does that have anything to do with you" The pretty Taoist nun coldly asked.

"I think you and your companion might both be over 120 years old." Xia Tian continued to press on.

Zhao Yujie was stunned. Over 120 years Wouldn’t that make them two old demons then But looking at this Taoist nun, she didn't look much different from a woman in her thirties!

"Hmm, judging by your appearances, I don't think I'm wrong. Now I have some understanding as to why you want Green Peak Mountain." Before the pretty Taoist nun could answer, Xia Tian quickly said, "Unfortunately, there's something else I need to tell you. Even if you go to Green Peak Mountain now, it won’t save your lives; in other words, that place is basically useless to you." help but ask, "Brother Tian, is it really over""What else do you want then" Xia Tien glanced at Chang Xiaobao. "Ah, you did well this time, helping me a lot. If you ever need anything in the future,...
