NOVEL NEXT Chapter 195 No Wonder I Have the Urge to Beat You to Death
```
"You're the bird person, your whole family are bird people!"
The originally nonchalant Aroman furiously retorted when she heard how the human on the projection screen addressed her.
After cursing, she realized why just one sentence from this human could incite an urge within her to beat him to death?
This was highly abnormal.
She was patient with humans and other strong beings, as long as they weren't too excessive, she would generally just demand a certain amount of Gold Coins and let them go, never feeling the impulse to kill them.
Including that Fallen Heroic Spirit, she merely wanted to claim her for herself and then sell her at a high price.
The human in the projection was different, the moment she laid eyes on him, she felt he had a face that was utterly punchable.
When he opened his mouth, the desire to kill him became unprecedentedly intense.
"Human, answer me one question."
"Because you ask, must I answer? A mere bird person dares to be so rampant in front of me? Forget it, considering you've captured that idiotic teammate of mine, I'll give you a chance.
One question, six hundred thousand Gold Coins. You ask, I answer."
The gaze of Venus in the projection screen became dull. Was this still the same taciturn, straightforward, and honest Lance from over a thousand years ago?
That tone, demeanor, the disdainful look, she herself felt Lance seemed obnoxious.
Forgive her, but she didn't know why she found her own teammate obnoxious.
"Heh, six hundred thousand Gold Coins, are you a little wench made out of solid gold?"
"If you dare not ask, then don't."
"I dare not ask? Human, among all the humans I've met, you alone make me feel not just the urge to beat you to death for free."
Lance, lounging on the plush sofa, laughed. When he was the Lord of Red Dragon City, this same Aroman wanted to kill him without spread feathers. Explore more stories at My Virtual Library Empire
Even when he became human, appearing as a handsome and clean man, Aroman still felt the urge to kill him.
If he didn't know that Aroman couldn't see through his Art of Transformation, he would've suspected he exposed himself.
"Listen to my advice, it's not too late to turn back now. The sea of bitterness is boundless, turn back and you'll find the shore. Do more good deeds; don't ask about the future."
"The more you speak, the stronger my urge to kill you. Human, tell me, how do you manage to do this?"
Aroman was becoming increasingly agitated. Before, hearing this human speak made her want to kill him, now just seeing this human's face sparked the urge to kill him.
What's going on?
Could it be that she was suffering from mood swings?
"Perhaps it's because of my righteous face, which reminds you of 'peace and prosperity', leading you to feel ashamed and stirring up the malice within you, making you unable to resist the impulse to violently destroy."
"???"
The face of 'peace and prosperity'...
The man in the projection talked so seriously, how confident was he in his own looks?
She was already eager to tear apart that human's mouth!!!
"I've answered your question, six hundred thousand Gold Coins. Minus what my teammate owes you, you still owe me a few tens of thousands of Gold Coins. There's no need to give them to me; instead, transfer them directly to that idiot teammate of mine."
"The greediest, most shameless human I've ever seen. If you want these six hundred thousand Gold Coins, have the guts to come to Peacock City in the Dragon Domain to claim them. If not, just stay obediently in your own city and watch helplessly as your idiotic teammate becomes my slave."
The peacock-headed, human-bodied Peacock King Aroman stretched out her wings, as a flash of iridescent light passed, her wings transformed into two human girl's arms.
Her arms were like iridescent crystal glass, smooth and delicate, shimmering faintly under the weak sunlight.
Aroman raised her right hand, glowing with a faint iridescent light, and crooked her finger towards Lance in the projection screen.
"If you've got the guts, come find me in the Dragon Domain, you 'bird person'."
"I'll be there after a while; I hope by then you can hand over the six hundred thousand Gold Coins you owe me."
"Gold Coins, I have them; the question is whether you have the life to take them from me."
"Bird person, you still don't realize the gravity of the situation. Do you know who the other teammate of that idiot is? It's the captain of the Hero's Party, who killed the Demon King over a thousand years ago. Nowadays, this captain of our little group has become a Half-step Divine Spirit.
When I go to the Dragon Domain, I'll bring our captain from the Hero's Party. I hope you can withstand the wrath of a Half-step Divine Spirit.
As a Potion Master, I dare to quibble with you because I have someone to rely on. In this day and age, what counts isn't personal strength but background and connections."
Venus glanced at Lance and turned her face away; she couldn't bear to watch any longer.
Lance himself was a powerful Sword Cultivator and a Domain Expert.
He pushed Reg out as his leverage, to deceive the lord, claiming Reg was his backup...
So despicable...
Despite knowing it wasn't good to criticize her own teammate like this, she couldn't help but inwardly judge Lance a little.
Also, the current Lance gave her the feeling of letting loose of himself.
It seemed like he was constantly provoking the lord beside him with words.
Wasn't he afraid the city lord's wrath would blow up in the face of her, the 'idiotic teammate'?
"You're called Lance?"
"Didn't you just hear how that idiotic teammate of mine referred to me?"
"No wonder I feel like beating you to death on seeing you; your name alone makes me nauseous. A human, sharing the same name as that greedy, blind, sinister, deceitful, cunning, and brutal creature."
