Chapter 209: Chapter 209: The Rival in Love Behind (Part 3) Chapter 209: Chapter 209: The Rival in Love Behind (Part 3) The Nangong Family holds an extraordinary status within the Southern Domain, much like the Xiao Family does to the Saint Realm. Therefore, the Nangong Family’s power is equally formidable, and it has soared even more dramatically since Nangong Zi Feng emerged in the past two years.

At this moment, not far from the Nangong Family’s residence, within a green forest, a man sat on the ground, regulating his breath. His face was covered with a silver mask, and his purple robe fluttered without wind, exuding an aura of both nobility and power.

Suddenly, the man opened those purple eyes, casting his gaze toward a spot not too far away…
A girl, panicked and flustered, ran out of the woods, her clothing stained with blood. It was such a striking sight. She was pale, with her garment torn at the chest, revealing her delicate and snow-white skin.

The girl’s beauty could topple cities, with icy and fierce eyes, her thin lips slightly pursed, the corners tempting.

It’s likely that no man could witness such a sensual scene without being moved…
“Muer?” The man with purple eyes stood up and brushed off his sleeves. Just as he was about to step forward, his eyes suddenly grew cold, the villainous aura chilling with a hint of murderous intent. He asked, pausing after every word, “Who are you!”

The girl was initially thrilled to see the man coming toward her, but was puzzled when he didn’t even take a step before asking who she was.

She thought she had performed well, without giving away any flaws. So, why was he asking that? Could it be that he was testing her? Yes, he must be testing her…
“I am… Mu Ruyue.”

Initially, the girl wanted to call out the man’s name, yet she remembered that Mu Ruyue didn’t know his identity, so she swallowed her words and instead spoke with a calm voice tinged with a touch of indifference.

The man said nothing, simply taking light steps toward the girl.

As he approached, the girl’s heart began to pound wildly. She was about to succeed, and her master had promised that, after her success, he would find her ten virile young men for her to enjoy…
Unfortunately, the man before her was off-limits. Her master had forbidden any relation with him, not even holding hands was allowed. Such a man could only be admired but not tasted, truly torturing her heart.

But she dared not disobey her master’s orders.

When that woman got cruel, being worse than dead was no exaggeration.

The man reached out his hand to her, and just when the girl thought he was going to help her up, with a bang, a burst of Black Flames erupted from his hand, engulfing her entire body within…
“Ahhhhh!”

Inside the flames, a heart-wrenching scream emanated.

With her teeth clenched tightly, the girl glared at the man viciously: “How did you find out?”

The man merely glanced at her indifferently, his purple eyes glacial and deadly, “No matter how well a person disguises, the eyes do not change. Your greed had long betrayed you. What’s more… for her, even a single expression, a single smile, I have etched in my heart. To expose you as a fraud, it only took one look.”

For her, even a single expression, a single smile, I have etched in my heart…
The girl’s heart trembled sharply, her gaze passing through the Black Flames in astonishment as it landed on the man. How deep must one’s affection be to keep a woman’s expressions and smiles so close to heart? And such genuine affection could not help but evoke a trace of jealousy and envy in others.

The man, with his back to the girl, seemed to be talking to himself, or perhaps he was saying it for someone else to hear.
