"I'll make you a bet, you absolutely can become my man. Do you believe it or not?" A brilliant smile suddenly bloomed across the woman's face.

"Damn it, not unless your breasts grow immediately! I only like women with big chests!" Liang Xiaoke cursed loudly, looking at the situation as utterly impossible.

"Is that so? Then what if I wager his life?" The woman gave a secretive smile, her slender jade finger pointing aside. Liang Xiaoke looked up and saw Lin Xiaoyi, who moments ago had been lively and kicking, beaten beyond recognition—held in the grip of a Tianlang Giant as if he were a piece of taffy.

As for his battle saber, it was nowhere in sight. Nearby, he noticed only a few shards of metal...

"You're using him to threaten me? Hah, you think too highly of his value. To tell you the truth, he's nothing more than the house slave of one of my brothers. Do you think I'd submit to your authority because of a mere house slave?" Liang Xiaoke laughed heartily.

"Wouldn't you?" The woman sneered. As her voice faded, the giant holding Lin Xiaoyi grabbed his arm and twisted hard. With a crisp shwa sound, Lin Xiaoyi’s right arm was ripped clean off, sending large chunks of flesh and blood dropping to the ground. Lin Xiaoyi, already unconscious, let out a faint cry of pain and then passed out again.

Liang Xiaoke’s eye twitched slightly, but his face maintained an air of complete indifference.

"I said, go ahead and take him apart. I'm a proper man; how could I possibly yield to your authority!" Liang Xiaoke’s expression was full of contempt.

But just as the words left his mouth, the Tianlang Giant exerted force again, and Lin Xiaoyi’s other arm was wrenched loose.

"Damn your mother! Killing is just a nod of the head; what is this tormenting him for? Xiaoyi, don't blame me for being ruthless. Better I send you on your way than let them torture you like this!" Liang Xiaoke suddenly roared, his body surging directly toward Lin Xiaoyi and the Tianlang Giants.

His speed was terrifying; in an instant, he was in front of the Tianlang Giant, raising a fist to smash toward Lin Xiaoyi’s head.

"Hahahaha, you want to save him? How could that be possible?" A cold voice echoed from the woman’s lips. Immediately after, her figure materialized in front of Liang Xiaoke, directly catching his incoming punch. Liang Xiaoke, who had intended a sudden shift in momentum, could only watch helplessly as she seized his fist. Even with all his strength, he found it impossible to pull free.

"Damn it, I’m killing him, why save him? Can’t you just give him a quick death?" Liang Xiaoke thundered in rage, immediately retracting his fist, speaking with intense indignation.

"Why can't you give me a quick resolution? Does being my man truly make you so aggrieved? You should know my status—I am Monike, daughter of the Tianlang Clan Chief. With my noble identity, am I still not worthy of you?" Monike’s anger flared as Liang Xiaoke refused her even at this juncture.

"I told you, I don't like women without chests!" Liang Xiaoke’s resolve was unshakeable. What kind of person was this? Fighting and fighting, only to end up robbing men?

"But what if I told you that once I become a woman, my chest will grow?" Monike suddenly smiled.

"Hmm? Really?" Liang Xiaoke’s eyes instantly lit up. What kind of logic was this? Would his chest grow only after engaging in intimacy with her?

"Yes, absolutely true. I was merely cursed by my older sister when I was young, and the way to break the curse is to have intimacy with a man!" Monike nodded seriously.

"Oh? That simple?" Liang Xiaoke’s eyes brightened.

"Yes, that simple!" Monike nodded with great emphasis.

"Then why don't you find another man to be intimate with? Why seek me out?" Liang Xiaoke couldn't believe there was such a good deal in the world. While he considered himself sufficiently handsome, he hadn't reached the level of being adored by everyone.

"These are my tribesmen. Do you expect me to be intimate with them?" Monike pointed furiously at the Tianlang Giants and roared.

Liang Xiaoke looked at her petite frame, then at the towering Tianlang Giants, and it seemed truly impossible for her to be intimate with them? But surely, the Tianlang Clan didn't lack a suitable match for her?

"Our tribesmen are all over two zhang tall, even the females are two zhang. I was cursed to become this way, so I can't find anyone matching my stature within the clan. Moreover, as long as the curse remains unbroken, I cannot leave the Tianjue Forest for a single day!" As if sensing Liang Xiaoke's doubt, Monike explained further.

"Really?" Liang Xiaoke seemed to regain his interest.

"Truly. I can swear an oath to the Wolf God!" Monike nodded earnestly.

"But I already have a wife!" Liang Xiaoke put on a very conflicted expression.

"It doesn't matter, I don't mind being a concubine!" Whether she truly had never met a suitable man or for some other reason, Monike had transformed into a completely different person at this moment.

"But I'm very promiscuous; I have many women outside!" Liang Xiaoke continued.

"What man isn't promiscuous? The women of our clan are all my father's women; I won't mind at all!" Monike swore faithfully again.

Seeing Monike's serious demeanor, Liang Xiaoke scrutinized her flat chest and slender figure again, seemingly struggling internally. Should he really sleep with such a masculine woman? Would there be any lasting side effects in the future?

"Will you agree or not? If you don't like me, even a one-night stand is fine; I don't need you to be responsible for me..." Seeing Liang Xiaoke still hesitating, Monike spoke up once more.

"Uh, so you just want to lift the curse. That's fine, though. I'm the best good person in this world and love doing good deeds. I'll help you this time. But this guy is still my brother’s house slave; letting him be torn apart like this..." Liang Xiaoke deliberately drew out his words...

"Why aren't you letting him go quickly!" Monike, seeing that Liang Xiaoke had agreed, flashed a charming smile and immediately issued the command to the Tianlang Giants.

The Tianlang Giant proved obedient. As soon as Monike’s words fell, the hand holding Lin Xiaoyi was gently released. With a thud, Lin Xiaoyi’s body crashed heavily onto the ground, the immense pain jolting him back into consciousness.

"This is the Tianlang Yuan Dan. Give this to him. Within forty-nine days at most, his strength will fully recover," Monike said, pulling out a large handful of silver pills and handing them to Liang Xiaoke.
