Chapter 329: Chapter 328: Fire and Ice Contend
"What’s wrong with you, Ice Queen? Who are you trying to scare with that icy scowl?" Di Que imdiately rebuked.
He didn’t notice Ye Fan winking at him; after all, Di Que was unaware of the Ice Phoenix Saintess’s terrifying power, but Ye Fan knew.
"HAH!"
As expected, the provoked Ice Phoenix Saintess cried out. With a flick of the Ice Phoenix Pearl in her hand, Di Que’s body was sent flying into the air.
"What the hell did this Ice Queen do to !" Di Que yelled.
The words had barely left his mouth before the Ice Phoenix Saintess hurled him away. The sound of his body hitting the wall made even Ye Fan’s scalp tingle. There was no doubt about it; Di Que was seriously hurt this ti.
At that mont, Ye Fan said, "Ice Phoenix Saintess, if you still don’t trust , then cooperate with . I’m certain we can find clues about your father’s murder!"
"I’ll find them myself after I kill you!" The Ice Phoenix Saintess clearly didn’t fall for it and imdiately charged at him. Ye Fan was left with no choice but to quickly defend himself.
However, just then, the Ice Phoenix Saintess sensed an overwhelmingly powerful presence approaching. She spun around to see a woman, and sothing about this newcor sent a tremor through her very soul. Her instincts told her this woman was no ordinary person.
The newcor was none other than Su Qingxue. Upset that Ye Fan hadn’t been ho for several days, she had co to the Heavenly King Hall headquarters to settle accounts. Di Que had just been about to report this, but when Su Qingxue arrived and witnessed the scene, she imdiately intervened.
The Ice Phoenix Saintess was powerful, possessing the Ice Phoenix Pearl. However, Su Qingxue had perfectly rged with the Fla Witch, making her own strength utterly terrifying. In the clash of ice and fire, the power of the Fla Witch ultimately prevailed.
Su Qingxue turned to Ye Fan and asked, "Who is she? Don’t tell
she’s another woman you’ve picked up from who-knows-where. You’re getting bolder, aren’t you? Bringing these sketchy won right into the Heavenly King Hall!
"Do you think you can get away with things behind my back?"
Su Qingxue was furious. After rging with the Fla Witch, her jealousy had inexplicably grown stronger.
Ye Fan hurriedly said, "Ah, Qingxue, listen to my explanation! She’s not my woman, she’s really not! I swear to the heavens!"
The Ice Phoenix Saintess rebuked, "Don’t spout such arrogant nonsense. I am only here to collect a debt."
"Collect a debt? My Ye Fan owes you nothing! If this is because you gave yourself to him, then I’m sorry, but I’m the one who should be settling that score!" Su Qingxue retorted fiercely.
Hearing this, Ye Fan felt like he was about to have a breakdown. These two won, one of ice and one of fire, were completely talking past each other. He felt as if he were trapped in the tragic state of being caught between ice and fire.
"Qingxue!"
Just as Ye Fan opened his mouth, the Ice Phoenix Saintess charged at Su Qingxue. Hearing Su Qingxue’s words had infuriated her; she couldn’t believe this woman dared to insult her.
"Ice Phoenix Pearl!"
The Ice Phoenix Saintess thrust the Ice Phoenix Pearl forward, unleashing a trendous force toward Su Qingxue.
"Fla Sparrow Annihilation!"
Su Qingxue, not one to show weakness, imdiately unleashed the Fla Sparrow Annihilation. The technique instantly countered the imnse Ice Phoenix Power. Unwilling to give up, the Ice Phoenix Saintess attacked again, and the two won beca locked in a fierce battle.
Without the Ice Phoenix Pearl, the Ice Phoenix Saintess would have been defeated long ago. Her power was at the Emperor Level, but Su Qingxue had surpassed that realm, having inherited the full strength of the Fla Witch. Even Ye Fan had to be on his best behavior in her presence.
Su Qingxue tried several tis to defeat the Ice Phoenix Saintess, only to be blocked by the Ice Phoenix Pearl each ti, which greatly angered her.
With a fierce shout, Su Qingxue acted.
This is bad! the Ice Phoenix Saintess thought, her heart sinking. She had never imagined Su Qingxue would be strong enough to catch the Ice Phoenix Pearl with her bare hands, rendering it ineffective.
At that mont, Su Qingxue unleashed a wave of scorching True Qi, and the Ice Phoenix Saintess was defeated.
She stared at Su Qingxue, her eyes filled with unwilling resentnt.
"I hate it when people look at
like that," Su Qingxue said coldly. "Today, I’m going to gouge out your eyes!"
Ye Fan had a bad feeling. If Su Qingxue really gouged out the Ice Phoenix Saintess’s eyes, then nothing he could say would clear this up. He also realized that since rging with the Fla Witch, Su Qingxue had not only beco more jealous, but her killing intent had also grown stronger. It was as if she had transford from a city socialite into a dominant Queen.
He imdiately lunged forward to block Su Qingxue. "Qingxue, please listen to
first! She really isn’t my woman! This is all a huge misunderstanding!"
"Get out of my way! This is between her and !"
A tremor ran through Su Qingxue’s body, sending Ye Fan flying backward. He was helpless against her. Her power had beco formidable; she was no longer the weak woman she once was.
"Go on, kill
if you have the guts!" the Ice Phoenix Saintess challenged.
But Su Qingxue simply replied, "You think I don’t dare?"
Just then, a battered Ye Fan rushed forward and wrapped his arms around her slim waist. "Qingxue, please, can you just listen to my explanation?" he pleaded desperately.
He was truly on the verge of a breakdown. He had never t anyone as difficult to handle as Su Qingxue. When she got like this, she respected no one and would listen to nothing.
"Fine. I want to see how you spin this story," Su Qingxue said coldly.
Ye Fan imdiately explained the entire situation from beginning to end, concealing nothing, desperate to make Su Qingxue believe him.
After listening, Su Qingxue said, "So that’s how it is. If you had just explained earlier, we could have avoided such a big misunderstanding!"
Ye Fan nearly coughed up blood. Explained earlier? I wanted to explain earlier, damn it! But did you even give
a chance to speak?!
At that mont, Su Qingxue turned to the Ice Phoenix Saintess and said, "I’m truly sorry. I misunderstood you."
"Hmph!"
Although the Ice Phoenix Saintess was furious, she knew she was no match for Su Qingxue. She said, "I just want justice for my father’s death! I don’t care about anything else!"
"I also want to get you justice for your father, but the Divine Dragon is utterly ruthless. There’s nothing I can do," Ye Fan said. "I’m truly no match for the Divine Dragon right now."
Although he hated to admit his own weakness, Ye Fan felt helpless. The Divine Dragon was simply too powerful.
Su Qingxue asked, "Ye Fan, have you really not found any evidence?"
"None," Ye Fan said, shaking his head.
"I think he just wants to shirk responsibility!" the Ice Phoenix Saintess accused.
The ntion of the Ice Phoenix Saintess’s father reminded Su Qingxue of her own. She deeply understood that kind of pain; she herself had nearly collapsed from it.
Because of this, she said to the Ice Phoenix Saintess, "I understand your situation, but this isn’t sothing that can be rushed. Can you please be patient?
"Even if it’s proven that my Ye Fan didn’t kill your father, what could you do? He has already said that the Divine Dragon is extrely powerful! Could you really take them on right now?"
"Are you saying my father should have died in vain?" the Ice Phoenix Saintess retorted. "Even if the Divine Dragon is powerful, I will fight them to the death! The debt for my father’s murder must be paid!"
There was no doubt that in this mont, she lived solely for vengeance. The death of her father, the Ice Phoenix Sect Master, had nearly shattered her spirit.
