My Fierce Tigress Wife - Chapter 143
Chapter 143: The Two Women Meet
In terms of feminine charms, from what Wang Hu had come across, this woman was exceptional.
However, in terms of seducing men, Wang Hu had to admit that this demoness was number one.
A well-deserved number one.
Even for him, his emotions were slightly affected. However, he quickly recovered from it.
She was a commoner; so what if she was exceptionally beautiful?
It was only skin-deep. As for her seductive quality, once Wang Hu was reminded about the body of a commoner which was filled with impurities, he was not tempted in the slightest.
“I’m facing the famous Tiger King who is first in the world; I’m filled with curiosity. Why would I want to escape?”
Her voice was soft and felt like a tease.
Her clear, bright eyes looked straight at Wang Hu.
Wang Hu was shocked. Her voice that sounded seductive did not feel promiscuous or tempting for him.
When she said ‘King’, she lacked the reverence that other normal creatures had; she did not see herself as one of the weak.
It was more like mockery, with a slight sense of teasing that felt both pretentious and unpretentious, natural and unintentional.
The seduction and provocation were real, but it was filled with indifference and coldness more.
It was contradicting yet natural, and she gave off an incredibly unique seductive charm.
His emotions that just subsided wavered again.
Wang Hu became cautious. Power was everything in this world.
Divine power was power, the body was power, and beauty and seduction was also a form of power.
It was a very strong power.
Wang Hu would never underestimate it at all. Especially when he had a stunning Silly Girl at home, he knew very well how powerful beauty could be.
He also understood why so many historic figures fell into the traps of beauties when reading up history in his past life.
The beauty trap was really hard to overcome.
When one felt disdain and confusion about the saying ‘even heroes fall for beauty traps’; it’s only because one had not met that beauty yet.
Or perhaps, one was not yet a hero.
This demoness that he was facing clearly had a very strong power.
He frowned and hesitated for a moment before scanning her body with his divine senses.
He could not deny that this demoness had a lure on him like he could not deny that he’s a normal man.
In that case, he should eliminate all of his temptations. No matter how strong the seduction of a commoner was, it was just a dirty piece of skin for transcendent beings like him.
Under a scan with his divine senses, her body appeared.
Divine senses were not like eyes, they did not see beauty.
At least his divine senses could not see it now; the divine senses were more like a scanning machine.
In the next moment, he could not stop himself from frowning for the first time since they met.
There were no impurities! This demoness had no impurities in her body!
However, she was clearly just a Second Realm and has not forged a divine body.
He made the wrong move!
His emotions wavered even more.
Suddenly, he raised his eyebrows and said coolly, “You’re not human?”
The woman remained composed, and her voice was still soft and ethereal.
Her tone was also the same, without hurry and filled with nonchalance, calmness, and coldness.
Again, her words were coupled with a seductive teasing that felt both pretentious and unpretentious, natural and unintentional.
“Doesn’t Your Majesty think that it’s a loss of dignity for the Tiger King to look at a girl’s body without permission?
“Or, could it be that Your Majesty has fallen for me?”
Wang Hu’s wariness increased. If it was another person who said such provocative words, he might think that the other party was just being promiscuous and was trying to seduce him.
Yet, when this demoness said it, he did not feel this way.
He could not put it into words; it was complicated. It made him feel a little tempted and develop a favorable impression unwittingly.
This woman was not simple.
His voice turned cold, and his aura grew even more intimidating. “Answer my question.”
“Since Your Majesty wishes to know, then I’ll just tell you. Why be angry?”
Her provocative words, calm tone, and cold eyes remained the same.
The woman did not seem to be affected, and she continued to say, “Indeed, I’m not human.”
Wang Hu turned to one side and continued to act as though nothing had happened. He said coolly, “I am not interested in small talk with you. Give me an explanation.”
The woman looked at Wang Hu and tilted her head. Her tone was now filled with a trace of curiosity.
“Your Majesty refuses to look at me. Are you not interested in me? Or are you actually interested in me?”
Wang Hu sensed the urge in his body and suddenly felt speechless.
Men, ha.
As expected, all men had a preference for good looks.
His tone and posture maintained the same. “You wish to be humiliated?”
“Who wishes to be humiliated? Since Your Majesty wants to know, then I’ll just let you know.”
Her tone seemed to be more serious, but it still remained composed and cold, as though she was talking about an unimportant matter.
“I come from the Demonic Abyss; it’s also called the Deep Abyss.
“There are countless Planes of Existence in the Deep Abyss, and each plane is stronger than the previous one. All the species share the same term; we’re all called ‘demons’.”
Under his unmoving exterior, Wang Hu’s heart immediately sank after hearing the words ‘Deep Abyss’.
In the novels he read in his past life, it was a scary existence.
Although he was clear that there was no relation between the two, the numerous Planes of Existence and demons…
…were quite similar.
Sensing that she paused, he raised his brows and looked over at her.
The woman was nonchalant. Her clear eyes looked straight at Wang Hu without a trace of reverence; it even had a slight innocence and curiosity.
“Are you not afraid of dying?”
A palpable murderous intent surged from him, and Wang Hu was really planning on killing her.
Her usual nonchalant and unhurried voice said softly, “Who isn’t afraid of dying? But I already showed you my sincerity. Does Your Majesty still bear to kill me?”
Wang Hu replied coldly, “You can try me.”
“I did not think that the Tiger King was so unromantic and so eager. Don’t you know that sincerity is something that both parties should show for something to continue?” The woman said coolly.
“Enough. I am not interested in listening to you speaking nonsense.” Wang Hu’s voice turned colder.
“Fine. In that case, I’ll talk about things that Your Majesty wishes to hear.
“I am here to discuss a deal.” The woman’s expression had not changed since the start, even after she was pushed to this point.
It seemed like there was nothing that could make her change expressions.
“Speak.” Wang Hu breathed a sigh of relief. He was actually reluctant to take action because of her importance and that he let her escape that night.
If she did not back down, then he would have to take matters into his own hands.
“The Deep Abyss has discovered the Earth. Their desire for new worlds is stronger than their desire to live.
“The world passage is in Russia. I offended a fool and was pursued by a Demon King in Deep Abyss, and I entered this world by chance.
“Now, the human countries are hunting me down, hoping to get more information about the Deep Abyss from me.
“I can offer information about the Deep Abyss, but I don’t trust them.” The woman’s voice remained soft and ethereal, still sounding like she was talking about something that did not concern her.
Wang Hu had a better understanding now. He said expressionlessly, “You want to seek help from me?”
The various countries might have already found out about how terrifying the Deep Abyss was, and they were anxiously trying to find out more information about it. This demoness was probably wanted and hunted down by the different countries.
The reason she came here was simple: she didn’t trust humans. With her circumstances, it’s right that she should not trust them.
If she did not wish to be chased and caught, then coming to him—the strongest being outside the human forces, who did not belong to humans—was normal. Only if she’s here was there some hope left.
“Yes.” The woman nodded.
“Why should I help you?” Wang Hu thought as he said coldly.
“Am I not pretty enough? Or not seductive enough?” The woman said with a serious expression.
Wang Hu’s fists clenched under his sleeves, and his eyes narrowed. “Are you joking with me?”
“So boring. You don’t know any humor and are not romantic at all.” The woman pursed her lips slightly, and her power of seduction was increased instantly.
Even with Wang Hu’s self-control, he had an urge to do what men didn’t want to do now; this demoness deserved a beating.
“If Your Majesty helps me overcome the difficult situation from the humans, I will help you in dealing with the invasion of the Deep Abyss and owe you a favor as well,” the woman added.
“Your favor is unimportant. And what can you do in an invasion by the Deep Abyss?
“Moreover, that’s a matter that the humans will deal with. For the time being, the Deep Abyss will be unable to enter the Earth.
“And most importantly, you are a demon from the Deep Abyss yourself. Do you think that I or the humans would believe you?” Wang Hu’s brain worked quickly as he pretended to speak with nonchalance.
The woman seemed to have seen that coming, and she said without hesitation, “Of course, I will be very useful in dealing with the Deep Abyss. Do you even understand the different species of Deep Abyss?
“As for the humans and Your Majesty, don’t you all belong to the same camp?
“Even if you weren’t before that, you will be now. The Deep Abyss will pull the entire world into the Abyss, turning it into one of its numerous Planes of Existence. All the creatures in the world will either become demons or die in the process.”
“As for the issue of trust, that is the least of your worries. Although I am a demon from the Deep Abyss, I am not interested in invading other worlds. I even offended a Demon King.
“And I can prove it with the information that I am going to provide next.”
She paused, and her voice turned intense. “Your Majesty, even if this world was special, do you think that it will really be able to obstruct a Demon King from the Deep Abyss?”
Her clear eyes looked intently at Wang Hu, making him—who was originally feeling quite confident—suddenly feel uncertain.
He did not speak, but his eyes signaled to her: ‘Speak.’
A smirk appeared on her perfect lips, evident of her mockery, disdain, and confidence.
In the next moment, the woman disappeared.
Her body might have disappeared, but in Wang Hu’s divine senses, she still remained there.
Suddenly, Wang Hu realized something, and his eyes turned stern.
“Seems like Your Majesty has understood.” The woman appeared again and said softly, “My little trick is nothing compared to the Demon King’s.
“As for whether it can be hidden from those satellites or some unknown technology or not, I’m not sure.
“I also have to remind you that the Second Realms under a Demon King are like weeds, they are infinite.”
Wang Hu’s heart truly felt heavy now. He had never realized before this that there were times when the satellites, human eyes, and technology would not see the truth.
Mysterious Dharma spells, special abilities, and even Dharma treasures could hide the body; making it possible to invade the Earth quietly without anyone knowing.
Could it really hide from human technology?
Wang Hu wasn’t sure, but what if?
Even if there were nuclear weapons, if too many demons entered Russia from the Deep Abyss, it was capable of exhausting Russia so much that it’ll be destroyed.
Once Russia fell, then the Deep Abyss would have a base on Earth; the repercussions would be dire.
The world passage might be able to block the strong from coming in, but if countless Second Realms spread themselves out, a long, drawn-out war would break out.
The tiger species located near the Northern border would not be spared either.
“I even shared this information. Does that prove that I’m with Earth now?” The woman waited for a few seconds and said again.
Wang Hu put aside the serious thoughts and did not answer the demoness’s questions. “What else do you have to say?”
The woman tilted her head and exuded a slight cuteness, making Wang Hu’s heartbeat jump faster.
“There is one more thing.” The woman suddenly thought of something. She opened her eyes wide and said seriously, “My favor is not unimportant.”
“Nonsense.” Wang Hu’s expression remained cold as he said.
The woman pursed her lips and replied, “Boring.”
It was silent for a few seconds. Wang Hu, who had made some plans in his mind, said, “Return to the cave with me first.”
“No matter what, the Tiger King won’t be letting me go anyway. Of course, I have to follow you,” the woman said nonchalantly.
Wang Hu did not believe her. This demoness dared to approach him and was unafraid of him attacking; it must be because she had something to count on.
He pondered and couldn’t help but to say, “Where did you get that confidence when you came to look for me? That time when you came two nights ago?”
“Do you really want to see a girl’s means of surviving?
“If you saw it, then Your Majesty has to protect me,” the woman said softly. For a moment, she appeared pitiful.
He snorted. Without saying a word, a golden flash appeared in his hands, and it began spreading towards the woman.
She responded coldly, “Does Your Majesty plan to bring me along personally? What an honor.”
As she said, she let the golden light engulf her without shunning away from it.
Wang Hu frowned to himself. She appeared too nonchalant.
Where is her confidence coming from?
He couldn’t guess it, and his thoughts of wanting to kill her dissipated. He flew back to the Tiger King’s Cave with this demoness.
The golden light flashed across the sky and entered the Tiger King’s Cave directly.
Wang Hu retracted the golden light, and the woman began observing the drawing room as if nothing had happened.
Two seconds later, she said calmly, “Is this the home of the world’s number-one? It’s quite different from what I imagined.
“Seems like the Tiger King really has a huge division with the humans.”
Wang Hu did not pay attention to her. He tried his best to suppress all his emotions, and he sat on his chair without emotion.
A few seconds later, Di Baijun walked into the drawing room, and the two pairs of eyes met.
In that instant, it seemed like something happened.
The woman’s nonchalance was gone and was replaced by seriousness.
Her weak exterior also appeared firmer.
Although nothing much has changed overall, Wang Hu was able to tell with one look that her attitude changed.
It was a completely different attitude when she faced him.
At the same time, Silly Girl’s attitude also seemed to be slightly different.
