Reign of the Hunters Chapter 455

Chapter 455 Chaos and Confusion

The room was quiet as a song had just ended. And his cold tone could be heard by all who were present.

“It was just a joke, there’s no way I’m...”

But Fleeting Ti stood up before the guild mber could finish the sentence, “But I’m serious...” he said with a smile.

“But...” the man was shocked. He looked at Fleeting Ti, and then at Mo Leng. This was a highly confusing situation for the man.

Mo Leng’s expression darkened. One could see her face growing pale and then a shade of red. It was then replaced by an expression of defeat. She sat in a daze for a long while. Her eyes remained unfocused. It was as if she was staring at nothingness.

It would be quite a while until she finally slowly raised her head to look at Fleeting Ti. The entire room was silent save for the background music that was being played when the next song on the playlist started. No one dared to make a sound.

Fleeting Ti t Mo Leng’s gaze with an icy glare of his own before taking a seat between another group of male guild mbers. It was the perfect spot. There was just enough room for him, but it was impossible to make space for yet another person unless one of the mbers gave up his spot.

Mo Leng was furious. How dare he walk away from ! She walked up to Fleeting Ti, stared at the man, and was promptly ignored. His eyes remained glued to the screen of his phone, on the ga that he was playing. He refused to acknowledge the presence of the woman who was staring holes right through his body.

“Yi Qingchen, are you really doing this to ?” Mo Leng’s anguish finally spilled out.

“You should ask that to yourself, Mo Leng.” ca the cold reply.

“Do you even call yourself a man?! How can you treat like this!” Mo Leng screeched. There was now sorrow in her voice.

But Fleeting Ti’s patience was at its limits. He looked away from his phone to shoot a glare at Mo Leng, “How should I be treating you then?”

“That’s enough. Take this outside, will you?” Absalom imdiately interjected. He did not wish for the two to start a fight in full view of the guild’s core mbers. He reached towards Fleeting Ti to drag him out of the compartnt.

But his hand was imdiately slapped away, “Keep your hands off ! There’s nothing I want to say to her.” The annoyance was clear in his voice.

Absalom could feel anxiety gnawing at his heart when he noticed the change in Mo Leng’s expression following Fleeting Ti’s words. He reached for Fleeting Ti again and began tugging him out of the room, “Co on, don’t be like a child. Let’s talk outside.” He then gave Silent Hymn a look, Get her out of here as well.

This snapped the vice leader of Genesis out of his shock, who imdiately made his way towards Mo Leng to usher her out of the room.

Fleeting Ti’s annoyance was already through the roof. He was being constantly pestered by Mo Leng. Her appearance in the event only served to pour oil to the blazing fla that was his anger, “I’ve said what I want to say. Why should I repeat myself again? Am I a recorder?”

Absalom was taken aback by his outburst. He had never seen his friends of many years losing his temper in such a manner. Fleeting Ti was soone who he knew very well. The man was a person with exceptional self restraint who would always keep his temper in check.

Even he did not know how Fleeting Ti would react if his buttons were continuously being pushed. But just when the leader of Genesis was trying to think of a way to defuse the situation, he felt himself being pushed away by a force. This caused him to stumble backwards, and what he saw next shocked him deeply.

Mo Leng’s blood was boiling. How can he say sothing like that? And to of all people! Her breathing grew heavier and heavier as anger continued to broil within her. Her vision was filled with red as she stared at the face that she was starting to hate more and more. All the sorrow she had held was converted into anger in an instant.

Seventeen years! I’ve waited for you for seventeen years! I’m willing to give you everything, but this is what I get in return?

Even if your heart is made of rock, or even if it’s made of ice, shouldn’t it have lted after so many years? How did things turn out like this? Why can’t I reach out to him? Why has his heart remained closed to even after so many years?

The girl’s anger continued to fester until it exploded into a fit of rage. She was able to shove Absalom aside with a sudden surge of strength, reaching for the bucket of ice sitting on top of one of the tables, and poured its content all over Yi Qingchen.

The entire room was shocked.

Despite their best efforts, the Genesis mbers on both sides of Yi Qingchen were still splattered by the icy cold water. The man himself was soaked from head to toe as he did not expect sothing like this from Mo Leng. It had caught him completely off guard.

It was as if ti had stopped at that very mont. The entire room was gaping at the two. The room was so quiet that Mo Leng’s heavy panting could be heard even over the music.

A second passed, and another, and another...

And the mbers of the guild imdiately snapped out of their daze. So of them began searching for towels and wipes for the n unfortunate enough to be collateral damage of Mo Leng’s anger.

Silent Hymn imdiately reached out for Mo Leng to pull her aside, but the girl’s feet were planted firmly on the ground. She refused to budge even as she glared holes through Fleeting Ti.

The only thing Absalom could do was to pull Fleeting Ti out of the room, “Let’s head to the washroom. We need to get you cleaned up. Just look at yourself...”

Fleeting Ti did not resist Absalom’s efforts this ti. His gaze, however, remained fixed on Mo Leng as he was being dragged out of the room. Mo Leng t his gaze with eyes red with anger. He raised a finger and pointed at Mo Leng, but Absalom slamd the door shut behind him.

“What the heck man! What were you thinking? You know how she is!” Absalom sighed as he headed to the washroom with Fleeting Ti in tow.

“So you’re saying that it was MY fault? Are you stupid? You’re not the one getting splashed with the bucket!” Fleeting Ti’s anger erupted.

“Well you’re not gonna bite a dog just because it bit you, right?” Absalom raised his voice as well. Oh God, I can’t deal with this any much longer!

Fleeting Ti shot Absalom a glare that could blast through a sheet of steel, “You and your wife should’ve minded your own damn business!” he squeezed the words through gritted teeth. He pushed Absalom aside, heading to the washroom alone.

Perhaps the sight of custors being drenched head to toe was already a common sight, the employees did not react to Fleeting Ti’s current state with surprise. One of them had even walked up to him and offered him a dry towel.

Fleeting Ti glared at his reflection as he stood by the sink. He cleaned his face before wiping his head dry with the towel. His face was a mask of fury.

Fruit Jelly ran into Fleeting Ti as she headed to the washroom. She took her leave from her guild mbers to check on her makeup, and saw the seething man standing by the sink outside the male washroom, but her presence was not noticed.

She wanted to greet the man, but decided against it when she saw the scowl on his face. She could feel the killing intent emanating from his eyes.

Fleeting Ti was still sulking by the sink when Fruit Jelly headed back to the karaoke room. She ran into a lady with a beautiful appearance on her way back. She was gorgeous despite the frown on her face.

Ahhh.. As expected of true beauty. She looks so nice even when she’s angry! But this did not trouble her for long, as another thought crossed her mind. Oh shoot! My song’s starting soon! I better hurry!

She sprinted down the hallway back to the compartnt shared between Conquering The Heavens and Upwards Ho!. “Oi! It’s almost my turn! Don’t you guys dare cut in front of !” Fruit Jelly hollered as she pushed past the door.

Mo Leng stood not far away from Fleeting Ti. She stared at him for a few seconds before taking a step forward, “I’m sorry.”

But her apology fell on deaf ears. It was as though her presence was not even acknowledged by Fleeting Ti. Tears threatened to flow out of her eyes.

She moved closer to Fleeting Ti, and after so hesitation, rested one of her hands on the side of his face, “I’m sorry.”

But Fleeting Ti recoiled the mont contact was made between their skin. He slapped her hand away, and spoke to her with an icy cold voice, “Stay away from !”
