Madam’s Identities Shocks the Entire City Again

Chapter 3940: Chapter 3940: Out of Respect for the Buddha

All of these people, without exception, were armed and exuded an intense aura of danger, akin to desperados.

The leader, however, was a man with gold-rimmed glasses who looked refined and scholarly, standing out awkwardly among these fierce individuals.

The servant led Nie Qingru down the stairs. Faced with a group of armed intruders, she was so frightened that she trembled and whispered, ”Empress, it’s them.”

Mo Xi also saw Nie Qingru come down, adjusted the edge of his glasses, and greeted her politely, ”You must be the empress of the reclusive family. I’ve heard so much about you!”

When Nie Qingru saw the hand extended in front of her, she neither moved nor reached out to shake it. Instead, she retracted her gaze, slightly raised her chin with an imperious attitude, squinted, scanned the group, and said directly, ”What do you want with me? Just say it.”

”Hehe.” Mo Xi withdrew his hand, touched the bridge of his nose, unfazed by the slight, smiled, and said to Nie Qingru, ”Allow me to introduce myself to the empress first. I am Mo Xi, from the Dark Fort on Continent F, and these are my brothers.”

When Nie Qingru heard the keywords ’Continent F’ and ’Dark Fort,’ her expression shifted slightly, the situation she most wanted to avoid had occurred.

Restraining herself, she looked at the person in front of her, took a step back, and asked, ”What do you want?”

Mo Xi ignored her retreat, still as refined and polite as when they first met, smiled, and looked at her, ”No need to be nervous, we’re not here to do anything, just want you to make a call.”

As he spoke, he took out a phone and handed it over, maintaining his courtesy, but his smile did not reach his eyes: ”It’s the one called Shadow by your side, right? Just give him a call and tell him we’re visiting the manor.”

Nie Qingru did not extend her hand, merely looked at him coldly, ”You don’t think just a few of you can hold me here, do you? This is the manor!”

She still had secret guards protecting her; should Mo Xi and his men make a move, the secret guards would appear.

Mo Xi paused only slightly at her words, lazily lifted his eyelids, adjusted his glasses, smiled faintly: ”Empress, why make things difficult for us?”

”Since we came to find you, we are prepared. We are just a bunch of rough men, tough and unafraid of death. But you’re different, you hold an exalted status as the empress of the reclusive family, to perish together with us...tsk, it’s not worth it.”

Nie Qingru heard the implication, ”Are you threatening me?!”

Mo Xi took off his glasses, revealing his hawk-like eyes, and smiled, ”I can’t just chitchat with you here.”

Their boss was still trapped inside the Red Alliance headquarters by those bastards, and he had risked everything with his brothers to deal with the mercenaries outside.

Did Nie Qingru really think they were here to chat?

With their intentions bare, Nie Qingru’s expression changed from ugly to cold and fierce, and she threatened in a low voice, ”You know the consequences of offending me...”

”Haha.” Mo Xi laughed lightly, then became serious, ”Empress, don’t scare us, the brothers are timid, if someone panics and misfires, it would be unfortunate if you got hurt. After all... you share some blood with Miss Qiao, and out of respect for her, we must give you some face, don’t you think?”
