Lethal Stunner: Kicking Off with Five Beast Husbands

Chapter 67

Chapter 67: Chapter 67 The Fragile Mermaid

"Who is he?" Xiao Jinsheng asked, puzzled.

She was just as curious, wondering why Li had such a strong reaction upon seeing him.

"A bandit, a ruthless thief who specializes in plundering supplies," Li answered gravely.

Upon hearing the person outside was a black-hearted rogue, Xiao Jinsheng immediately took a misstep and hid behind Li.

"A thief crying ’stop thief,’ don’t you think that’s a bit shameless?" Shi Xie lightly tapped on the floor-to-ceiling window by the door.

The afternoon breeze subtly lifted the edges of his gauzy white dress, and the warm sunlight streaming into the corridor bathed his elegant, pristine figure in a divine glow.

Xiao Jinsheng gazed at him in amazement, while Shi Xie, standing outside the window, threw her a playful wink.

But she hadn’t stared for long before Li raised a hand to cover her eyes. "Don’t look at him. I already told you he’s a bandit."

"But... he seems rather polite," Xiao Jinsheng said softly.

At this moment, Li felt as though the sky had fallen.

No matter how many precautions he took, from the start, his wariness had been about this fishy guy.

And yet, under the door, a small stream of water flowed inside.

The water pooled together, frost gathering as it formed. The person who had just been standing outside the window—now, there he was inside the room, Shi Xie.

Shi Xie smiled as he removed the crown from his head and offered it to Xiao Jinsheng. "Miss, please forgive my intrusion. I hope this token of apology brings you joy."

A platinum crown adorned with deep-sea pearls, it radiated a serene elegance while maintaining an air of regal authority.

Xiao Jinsheng’s fingers twitched toward it, but before she could, Li’s large hand enveloped hers completely.

Li pulled her tightly into his embrace, shielding her from Shi Xie like guarding against a thief. "Don’t accept it. He likes to coat his items with poison."

Xiao Jinsheng gasped sharply. Seeing the saintly yet strikingly handsome face of Shi Xie now woke her from admiration, her gaze taking on a layer of caution.

"I harbor no hostility toward you," Shi Xie explained with a smile. Though his words addressed Li, his eyes wandered over to Xiao Jinsheng and the other five—Mo Jiao included. "I am here to seek my clan’s lost treasure."

Shi Xie produced a refined shell, opened it, and projected an image onto the wall of an underwater floral paradise.

Lit by a silvery glow, the deep ocean scene was full of mysterious beauty, with vibrant coral reefs swaying amid drifting seaweed and colorful fish. Upon golden-white sands, pearls lay scattered like gemstones.
