Chapter 59 – Unavoidable Confrontation; Draw A Sword To Help
“You... Can’t you be a bit more reasonable?! ...” Ye Xiao was beaten until he was completely black and blue. He tried to dodge the attacks while attempting to understand the situation before shouting out in anger, “You, you, you...Didn’t you show
a disguised face too? You, you, you... Just how did I lie to you? What did I lie to you about? You woman, you mad woman... You’re really unreasonable!”
As he was violently thrashed by such an overwhelming force, Ye Xiao naturally felt humiliated to the extre.
It was his first ti being beaten up in both his current and previous life.
[I actually got beaten up by a woman!
This is too embarrassing!
This woman is so unreasonable... Way too unreasonable...]
At this mont, Ye Xiao’s mind was filled with these kind of thoughts to the extent that he beca incapable of thinking about anything else!
With this thrashing, Wen-Ren Chu-Chu was beating him to her heart’s content. As she hit him, she spoke furiously, “I told you that you were an idiot, yet you didn’t believe . You dare to try reason with a woman? You deserve to be beaten up...!” Towards the end of her tirade, there erged a trace of humour in her voice.
Hearing her words, Ye Xiao suddenly beca dispirited.
[Shit! I am such a fool!
I actually tried to argue with a woman...
I am getting beaten up for absolutely no reason at all...]
Wen-Ren Chu-Chu was getting more and more vigorous while beating him. After she felt that she had vented enough of her anger, she jumped up with a graceful spin and floated casually through the doorway. Only a playful voice resounded from within, “Brother Feng, I will co back in three months...”
– BANG! –
The door was shut firmly.
Ye Xiao was standing in front of the door with a runny nose and a swollen face. He wanted to cry but could not shed tears. Right now, he was simply speechless!
As he felt angry and ashad, he furiously shouted, “No matter how much you try, you will never be able to find ! You mad woman!”
Yet he only heard a fully satisfied and vigorous laughter from inside the property which was then followed by utter silence.
He suppressed his anger which nearly made him spit out blood. He then turned around and left while murmuring, “Won are so unreasonable...”
His figure was moving further and further away.
He hadn’t noticed that the door had been ajar.
Half of Wen-Ren Chu-Chu’s face was shown through the crack and she watched Ye Xiao leaving with angry strides. When she heard his murmuring, she couldn’t help laughing out loud as she muttered, “Such a fool...”
When she turned around, she found two people looking at her at the mont.
“My lady...” The middle-aged woman looked at her questioningly.
Wen-Ren Chu-Chu’s face turned hot for a second before returning back to normal. She spoke indifferently, “Start packing. We need to leave as soon as possible. We’re going ho!”
She said nothing else and elegantly walked back to her room.
She looked at the bed on which Ye Xiao had sat before and thought about how he had operated his martial arts on her – and how those big warm hands had pressed her belly. She couldn’t help but shudder as heat coursed through her body. She gently sat down, her jade hands slowly stroking the spot where Ye Xiao sat a while ago, vaguely feeling the heat of his body which had continued to linger.
Her eyes were getting desolate and hazy as she murmured, “My sworn enemy... You are really my sworn enemy...”
[TL note: Sworn enemy (冤家) in Chinese can also refer to one’s destined love.]
After leaving Wen-Ren Chu-Chu’s secret hideout, Ye Xiao made a few winding detours. Only when he was certain that no one was following him did he throw the Regeneration Ink Lotus into the Space.
He was preparing to throw away the box like he always did, but he suddenly found sothing else inside the box. He opened it and discovered a delicate, small handkerchief. There were so cloud like patterns faintly embroidered on it; they looked illusory and a faint lotus was laid at its center, .
If so ordinary person saw this, he wouldn’t feel anything special about it. However, Ye Xiao knew a lot about such flowers. He knew the story behind this lotus.
This lotus grows in the valleys that are perennially covered by mist. Its na was the Mist Lotus.
This lotus looked illusory and gave an impression of so faint beauty of fairylands. However, it was extrely poisonous. The mist lotus could make people fall into coma and turn into a skeleton in a short amount of ti. It was truly overbearing.
It looked soft, pretty and elegant, but it was extrely poisonous. It reminded Ye Xiao of the crazy girl, Wen-Ren Chu-Chu.
[The girl also looks soft and pretty, but in fact, she is vicious and decisive. If she revealed her true face, she would be a world-class beauty.]
Her situation could be compared to the lotus.
On the border of the handkerchief, a faint line of delicate script could be seen.
“雾里看花美, 风中舞天沉; 对敌作罗刹, 侍君是美人.”
(The flower is beautiful when seen through the mist; the heavens sink when she dances in the wind. A demon to the enemy; A beauty to the one she serves.)
Ye Xiao was deep in thought as he held the handkerchief, and then he shook his head and smiled, “A woman like you... You think you are a beauty, really...”
If Lady Wen-Ren Chu-Chu was here and heard what he had just said with such confidence, he would definitely be beaten up again. In fact, he would receive a beating much fiercer than the one he had just experienced. A girl had already put a handkerchief in the box for him, yet he didn’t understand her intent and even slandered the girl while talking to himself.
It would have been an act of rcy to just keep him alive.
It had to be said that this guy’s EQ could actually be so low; this was truly inconceivable!
After slandering the girl, he casually played with the small handkerchief and suddenly thought of sothing. He felt like the sense of the softness and smoothness were still on his fingers. He kneaded his fingers like he could still feel the touch of her belly and murmured, “That belly is beautiful sohow... It felt pretty good when touching it.”
He then put the handkerchief into his coat and slled a faint fragrance. It made him feel like Wen-Ren Chu-Chu was still around him...
[Did that chick keep a Mist Lotus in her sleeve all along? I didn’t even notice...]
“How pathetic, I was totally beaten up by that mad woman...” Ye Xiao spoke bitterly, “I will rember this. When I have the chance to hit her back, I must beat her till her ass is broken!”
He imagined the scene where he was spanking the girl’s buttocks until she cried and begged for rcy. That made him felt delighted.
With a imaginary victory, he held his head high and headed back ho.
He had walked for a long distance and would arrive ho after travelling a few more blocks. Suddenly, he frowned...
The wind was blowing from the direction to his house.
It seed there were people coming over rapidly. Ye Xiao felt motivated and went forward.
The first person approached him like a whirlwind, moving at the speed of lightning, but his entire body was splattered with blood. By the ti he saw Ye Xiao, he was already within ten ters of him. Suddenly, his body twisted as he said a low voice, “Move aside unless you want to die!”
Following that, he flashed past Ye Xiao, barely making contact with his body.
Even though he was so busy moving, he actually had pushed Ye Xiao towards the wall.
Although that person had barely brushed him, Ye Xiao felt an enormous force strike him. With a whoosh, his body had flew to the corner of the street.
He was extrely frightened.
[This guy must have reached a marvelous level of cultivation. Why is he wounded so badly?]
Just when he thought about this, he saw three figures flying towards him. Blades that glead like reckless lightning whistled past the location where he had just been standing.
Obviously, if he hadn’t been pushed by the man who was being hunted, these three sword lights would definitely have hit him directly. The three fellows didn’t look like they would allow anyone to escape...
If there was soone who was a bit weaker standing in his place, he would certainly be ripped to shreds by these sword lights!
Ye Xiao was furious!
[Since this is the case, why don’t I return the complint.]
The sword lights had just missed Ye Xiao, and he heard one of the three guys say, “There is an ant over here...”
“No need to ntion it!” Another guy replied with a deep voice.
The following mont, three gleaming sword lights suddenly circled in the air and shot toward Ye Xiao’s neck.
“He has seen the light of our blades and knows that we are hunting. We can’t let him live.”
“Just kill him!”
The sword lights rapidly approached him.
The three of them didn’t even turn around to look at him.
The three gleaming sword lights instantly reached the corner of the alleyway and changed directions to pursue Ye Xiao.
To them, it didn’t matter whether Ye Xiao lived or died. These three people had completely disregarded him. The only reason they wanted to kill him was because they had seen him during this chase!
Ye Xiao was extrely furious. He turned his head and dodged to the side. The three sword lights embedded themselves deeply into the wall. At the sa ti, Ye Xiao shook his wrist and three cold lights appeared in his hand. With a swish, the three lights flew out.
It was the gelid power.
The energy that didn’t belong to this world had shown up for the first ti!
It instantly froze the moisture in the air, converting it into ice; three exquisite small knives were ford and thrown.
The cold lights flew outwards. Ye Xiao didn’t look towards his targets either. He turned around and operated the Lunisolar Shadow. – POOF! – He disappeared.
The three guys had already gotten out of the alley and were about to move out of sight.
But all of a sudden, an extre crisis descended upon them.
The three of them were astonished at the sa ti.
They looked back and only saw the three lights that had already reached them.
When they turned around the corner, the lights had also turned around and chased after them!
The two of them swung their swords. – BANG! – They blocked the ice knives when it was about to be lodged between their eyebrows. They felt a stream of coldness go into their brains through the middle of their eyebrows and they quivered.
Looking at their longswords, they realised that their swords were already covered by a dense layer of frost! The hilt of their swords had beco so cold that it felt like they were holding a ten-thousand-year old stalactite. They were chilled to the bone and they almost threw their longswords to the ground. They hurriedly executed a spiritual technique to forcefully suppress the gelid energy.
A shocked shout echoed in the alleyway.
The third guy was a bit slow with his sword. – KAK! – He chopped apart the knife but the edge of the knife had actually pierced his shoulder.
Imdiately after being hit, he lost all feelings in his shoulder. The next mont, he felt cold accumulate between his eyebrows and his entire arm beca paralyzed because of the gelid power.
– Pah! – His sword fell on the floor.
His body beca covered by ice at an astonishing speed!
Even his beard, eyebrows, and hair were covered by ice!
The knife had left a hole in his shoulder, but no blood ca out from it. At this mont, even his veins had beco frozen!
He had turned into an ice sculpture.
The three of them were totally scared out of their wits. They ca to a halt at the sa ti, cold sweat drenched their bodies due to fear.
In fact, considering their cultivation levels, they shouldn’t have been this helpless. However, they had been focused on the powerful enemy who had been fleeing ahead of them...
They hadn’t paid any attention on anything else.
Unfortunately, they had encountered such a weirdly powerful enemy on the way. They didn’t even have the ti to react. By the ti the attack arrived, it had already been too late to react.
“Who was that?” The three of them looked at each other with sweat dripping down their foreheads. Their hearts were pounding in fear.
They couldn’t believe that in this world, there was actually soone who was this strange and powerful!
The third guy hurriedly operated the spiritual thod in order to dispel the cold and his two fellow cultivators helped him with it. Finally, he recovered, but the shoulder was still wounded with frostbite.
The muscles had turned blue.
“It was... It was the guy who I tried to kill...”
