Chapter 122 – How Audacious! (1/2)
The woman in palace clothes glanced at Qin Xiyue before she looked at Yang Ye and said, “It’s you who humiliated my Flower Palace?”
Yang Ye laughed coldly and said, “Humiliate? Could it be that I said something wrong? Customer and courtesan are those that only go to bed together yet avoid any talk of emotion. So, isn’t the relations.h.i.+p between Su Xiaoxiao and Gong Yuan exactly like that of a customer and courtesan? Since she dares to act in that way, then can others not speak about it?”
Su Xiaoxiao was infuriated to the point her face turned livid, and she was just about to attack. However, the woman in palace clothes stopped her before she looked at Yang Ye and said in a cold voice, “Young man, is there enmity between you and my Junior Sister, or is there enmity between you and my Flower Palace?”
This question carried deep meaning. If Yang Ye said he had enmity with the Flower Palace, then it would be a serious matter. Because then Yang Ye’s objective from before wasn’t to humiliate Su Xiaoxiao, and it was to humiliate the Flower Palace. If Yang Ye humiliated the Flower Palace, then even if Yang Ye was a personal disciple of a power, she would still dare to annihilate him on the spot because it was related to the honor of her sect!
On the contrary, if it was merely enmity between him and Su Xiaoxiao, then she could only teach him a lesson at most and couldn’t strike a killing blow. Of course, the precondition was that Yang Ye’s ident.i.ty could make this woman take it seriously!
Qin Xiyue’s beautiful brows knit together slightly, and she was just about to say something when Yang Ye said, “Is it important? Regardless of whether it’s enmity with Su Xiaoxiao or your Flower Palace, don’t you still intend to make a move against me? So, please don’t waste your breath and attack directly, alright?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the Profound Energy in Yang Ye’s entire body surged while he was already prepared to summon the two Nether Wolf Kings and the Earthbale Sword Chest. If the woman attacked, then he would utilize his full strength to annihilate them right here. Because the Flower Palace had made his mother suffer, so he didn’t mind taking some ‘interest’ first.
The woman’s face turned cold. She looked at Qin Xiyue and said, “She’s your reliance? If it’s just that, then you’re completely mistaken. Xiaoxiao, I’ll keep that King Realm woman occupied, and I’ll leave him to you! Don’t kill him but leave him on the brink of death!” As soon as she finished speaking, her figure flashed towards Qin Xiyue.
Qin Xiyue didn’t waste her breath. Her wrist moved before the whip appeared within her palm, and then she moved to greet the woman in battle.
Even though she didn’t know why Yang Ye constantly went against the Flower Palace, she still chose to support him. There was no other reason than because they were on the same boat, and she needed Yang Ye to help rescue her mother!
Su Xiaoxiao gazed at Yang Ye while a wisp of a savage expression flashed in her eyes. She said, “I’ll cut off your tongue and ‘Lil Brother’, and I’ll make you….”
“If you want to fight, then let’s fight. What’s with all the bulls.h.i.+t!?” Yang Ye interrupted her and charged at her.
“Hmph!” Su Xiaoxiao grunted coldly. With a movement of her wrist, a sword had appeared in her hand as well, and she moved to greet Yang Ye in battle.
Right when he was merely 6m away from Su Xiaoxiao, Yang Ye’s eyes narrowed, and the Profound Energy within his body surged madly into the Gale Shoes. After that, he suddenly stomped his right foot on the ground, and then he relied on the counterforce from the ground and the boost from the Gale Shoes to leave a string of afterimages behind as he instantly arrived 3m away from Su Xiaoxiao.
Sui Xiaoxiao’s expression had changed violently when Yang Ye had suddenly sped up, and she knew that she’d underestimated her opponent. Fortunately, her reaction wasn’t slow, and she swung her sword lightly. Over 10 sword lights formed from Profound Energy shot towards Yang Ye, and at the same time, her right foot tapped the ground as she intended to pull apart the distance between her and Yang Ye.
Gale Steps! Yang Ye disregarded the sword lights and silently spoke the words ‘Gale Steps’ in his heart. After that, his speed suddenly sped up once more, and he instantaneously arrived before Su Xiaoxiao who was prepared to retreat, and then he drew his sword and stabbed it directly at Su Xiaoxiao’s chest.
Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes revealed shock and terror when she saw his speed suddenly increase once more, and then with a thought in her heart, she was about to utilize her Profound Energy Barrier. However, right at the instant she issued this thought in her heart, she suddenly felt pain come from her chest. Why do I feel pain? His sword is still in the sheath in his hand? He still hasn’t drawn his sword!
In next to no time, Su Xiaoxiao’s consciousness turned blurry. At the last moments of consciousness, her eyes noticed the hole in her chest, and when she saw this hole, Su Xiaoxiao muttered in a low voice. “How… swift….” She hadn’t finished speaking when she crashed to the ground.
After he dealt with Su Xiaoxiao, Yang Ye turned around to look at the woman that was locked in a fierce battle with Qin Xiyue, and he didn’t hesitate at all to execute the Gale Steps and charge towards her.
Since he’d killed once of them, then it was best to kill the other one as well!
The woman in palace clothes who was in battle with Qin Xiyue noticed that a strand of aura was suddenly approaching from behind her, and her expression changed. Her figure flashed 3m towards the side, and at the moment she’d just left, a strand of Sword Qi had just happened to tear through the sky and arrive there. Because the woman had dodged, this strand of sword qi had left a mark behind on the wall of the pa.s.sageway in the end.
The woman turned around, and her pupils constricted when she saw Yang Ye. After that, she turned her head to look towards the distance, and Su Xiaoxiao’s corpse was lying silently the ground not too far away.
