Chapter 75: The Most Dangerous Place is the Safest Place

It’s over!

It’s completely over!!

The moment she saw Xie Haitao’s hand press the switch for the secret compartment, Huang Qi’s heart seized, as if an invisible hand had gripped it tightly.

Her face instantly turned as white as a sheet, completely drained of color.

Yang Xun was hiding inside. The moment Xie Haitao opened the compartment and saw a naked Yang Xun, his violent temper would make him go absolutely berserk on the spot!

When that happened, not only would Yang Xun suffer, but her own life, Huang Qi’s life, would be utterly ruined!

Once she was branded a cheater, the Xie Family would tear her to shreds.

Huang Qi’s legs began to feel weak, her fingers clutching the sheet trembled violently, and her heart leaped into her throat.

CLICK!!

The hidden door slid open. Xie Haitao yanked the panel aside, his bulky frame blocking the entrance. His small, beady eyes stared intently into the secret compartment, like a hungry wolf eyeing its prey, wishing he could see through every inch of the space inside.

However, the secret compartment was completely empty.

There was no one.

Not a single soul!

In the small, three-or-four-square-meter space, aside from a few dusty shelves, it was spotless. There wasn’t even a mosquito.

"???"

Xie Haitao froze.

He craned his neck to peek inside a couple more times, even bending down to check under the shelves. Still nothing.

The furious expression on his face froze instantly, as if a basin of ice water had been dumped over his head. His burning rage suddenly had no outlet.

No one!!

’Looks like I really did misunderstand!’

’Yeah, why would my wife even give a piece of trash like Yang Xun the time of day?’

’Looks like that masked guy ran in here to steal something!’

Meanwhile, Huang Qi was completely dumbfounded, frozen in place as if she’d been hit with a Body Fixing Technique.

’I clearly remember pushing Yang Xun into the secret compartment with my own hands. That bastard was definitely in there, how did he suddenly disappear?’

’Does that guy know some kind of invisibility trick?’

Although she was shocked and confused, her rational mind told her this was not the time to dwell on it.

’As long as he’s gone, it’s fine!’

’As long as Xie Haitao didn’t find anyone, I’m completely safe.’

Huang Qi quietly let out a sigh of relief, the heart that had been stuck in her throat finally settling back into her chest.

"Xie Haitao!!"

Huang Qi’s Liu Mei shot up, her phoenix eyes were wide and round, and with her hands on her hips, she unleashed a torrent of abuse right at Xie Haitao’s face.

"Are you sick in the head? Huh?? Barging in here in broad daylight with a gang of stinking men, kicking down my door! Look at me! I’m just wrapped in a sheet with nothing on underneath! When your men came in just now, their eyes were practically popping out of their heads! Every single one of them was staring at me! It made my skin crawl!!"

Huang Qi’s tirade grew more vicious, her voice becoming higher and shriller until she was practically spitting in Xie Haitao’s face.

"Are you even my man? Where’s your pride as a man? Why don’t you just strip me naked and throw me onto the street for the whole village to see?! Huh?!!"

Xie Haitao was sweating bullets from the verbal assault. His fat, round face was flushed crimson, and his small, beady eyes blinked incessantly. He opened his mouth several times but didn’t dare utter a single word.

He knew perfectly well that he had been rash.

The secret compartment was empty, and there were no suspicious marks on Huang Qi’s body. At least, in his eyes, the traces of fluid were just from massage oil.

’In other words, the moment I saw my wife undressed, I got all suspicious and let my imagination run wild, thinking she was having an affair with Yang Xun!’

’If this got out, where could I, Xie Haitao, ever show my face again?’

"Honey... Honey, please calm down! It’s my fault! I shouldn’t have listened to those two idiots spout nonsense!"

Xie Haitao put on an apologetic smile, his greasy hand reaching out cautiously to take Huang Qi’s arm.

"Don’t touch me!!"

Huang Qi flung his hand away, her eyes wide with rage.

"Yes, yes, okay, I won’t touch you..."

Xie Haitao awkwardly pulled back his hand, bowing and scraping as he said, "Honey, I was being stupid. It will never happen again!"

"There’s a next time?!"

Huang Qi’s voice rose again as she roared, "Now get the hell out! When you rushed in, your lackeys almost saw my entire body. Are you happy now? Satisfied??"

"Not happy, not happy at all, definitely not happy!"

Xie Haitao shook his head repeatedly, his fat face plastered with a servile grin. "Please don’t be angry, honey. Fatty Monkey and Huazi said Yang Xun snuck into the massage parlor wearing a mask. Since he didn’t hurt you, he must be here to steal something. I’ll take my men and drag him out right now."

"Just get out! I was in the middle of researching massage techniques. You’re interrupting important business!"

Huang Qi shoved Xie Haitao’s stomach hard, sending him stumbling back two steps.

"Okay, okay, I’m going, I’m going right now!"

Xie Haitao didn’t dare stay a second longer. He turned and bolted from the private room as if fleeing for his life.

Back in the hallway, he waved to his gang of thugs and hissed in a low roar, "That bastard Yang is definitely still in the shop! Search everywhere! Tear this whole damn massage parlor apart if you have to, but find him! The moment you find him, beat him to death!"

Taking their orders, the thugs swarmed toward the various rooms like a pack of hounds that had caught the scent of prey.

...

BANG!!

The door to the private room was slammed shut.

After confirming that Xie Haitao’s footsteps had faded into the distance, Huang Qi immediately bolted the door and rushed toward the secret compartment.

She pressed the switch, and the hidden door slid open again.

WHOOSH!!

A figure suddenly dropped down from the ceiling, landing steadily in front of Huang Qi.

It was Yang Xun!

There were two parallel support beams on the ceiling of the secret compartment, with just enough space between them for a person to wedge themselves in sideways.

Just moments before, Yang Xun had used the immense arm and core strength of the Second Layer of the Qi Refining Realm to brace his hands against the two beams, suspending his entire body above and pressing himself tightly into the dark corner of the ceiling.

When Xie Haitao had come in, he was only looking forward and down. He never looked up at all, allowing Yang Xun to remain hidden.

WHOO!!

Huang Qi let out a long, turbid breath. The heart that had been caught in her throat finally, completely, settled.

The next second, she raised her hand and pounded Yang Xun’s chest. Her phoenix eyes were a mixture of anger and fear as she chided, "Thank god you’re quick-witted! You scared me to death! Do you have any idea how my heart was about to pound out of my chest just now?!"

However!

Yang Xun gave her no chance to say another word. He wrapped an arm around Huang Qi’s slender waist and pulled her into his embrace.

His other hand clamped the back of her head as he leaned down and whispered devilishly in her ear, "You were almost scared to death, and I almost died holding it in. Quick, let’s continue. Let me put out this fire!"

"Are you crazy??"

Huang Qi’s pupils shrank and she trembled all over, hissing in a low, urgent voice, "Xie Haitao is right outside! He’s got a whole group of people searching the massage parlor! You still dare to do this now?!"

"It’s fine!"

Yang Xun grinned nonchalantly, his eyes full of confidence. "He already checked this room. He won’t come back a second time. The most dangerous place is the safest place!"

Before the words even left his mouth, he pushed Huang Qi down onto the waterbed. His hand expertly parted her long, fair thighs, and with a powerful thrust, he plunged straight in!

"Nghh~~"

Huang Qi’s entire body arched, a delicate moan almost escaping her lips.

Terrified, she quickly clamped her hands over her mouth, her fingers pressing so hard her knuckles turned white, desperately muffling all sound within her palms.

Yang Xun paid no mind to that. His hips began moving with the frenzied rhythm of a perpetual motion machine. Each thrust was ruthless to the extreme, carrying the majestic True Qi of the Second Layer of the Qi Refining Realm, setting every nerve in Huang Qi’s body ablaze.

"Mmmph, mmmph..."

Tears instantly filled Huang Qi’s eyes. She kept her hands clamped tightly over her mouth as her entire body trembled violently with Yang Xun’s movements.

Outside!

Xie Haitao’s furious roars could be heard intermittently through the door.

"Nothing? Not in that room either?

"Keep searching! I want every corner turned upside down!"

"I don’t believe it! It’s not like the guy could grow wings and fly away!!"

Huang Qi listened to her husband’s thunderous rage outside while her body was ravaged by another man.

This blend of extreme, absurd shame and thrilling excitement turned her mind to mush.

As Yang Xun thrust wildly, he silently activated the Yin Yang Dragon and Phoenix Technique, greedily absorbing the Primordial Yin Qi that Huang Qi was releasing.

The True Qi in his Dantian was strengthening at a visible rate. The warm vortex of qi spun faster and faster, growing larger and larger, showing faint signs of an impending breakthrough.

The massage bed shook violently with their movements, letting out soft creaks that mixed with the quiet whimpers escaping from between Huang Qi’s fingers, echoing in the small private room.

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK!!

Just as the two were at the height of their battle, a sudden knock came at the door.

Immediately after, Xie Haitao’s coarse voice boomed like a clap of thunder, "Honey, why is the door locked?"
