Chua—
Crack!
Bang bang bang bang!
A brilliant sword light flashed across, and several columns of water instantly erupted from the calm surface of the stream.
Ye Shu was drenched in water, his expression grim.
If he hadn’t noticed in time and felt a warning in his heart, he would have likely been split in two by that sword light just now.
True Qi leaving the body—Foundation Establishment cultivation.
Not an opponent he could face head-on.
In just an instant, Ye Shu had a deep understanding and judgment of the newcomer’s strength.
He slowly raised his head and looked at the newcomer.
Not far away, a woman dressed in pink was standing on a thin sword three fingers wide.
Holding a sword in one hand, she stood in mid-air, her willow-leaf eyebrows upturned as she glared at him fiercely.
The woman was petite with a round, chubby face that still had some baby fat.
Although she was angry, she appeared more charmingly naive and cute, making it hard to dislike her.
If this were a future wife, it would certainly be wonderful.
Unfortunately…
she was here to kill him.
Ye Shu’s heart sank slightly, but he didn’t show it on his face.
Seeing that the woman didn’t continue her attack, he cupped his hands neither humbly nor arrogantly and asked, “I am bathing here, yet you have resorted to lethal force without a word.
Isn’t that a bit too overbearing?”
He raised his head and asked in a heavy voice:
“May I ask for your name, Miss?”
“Lin Qingxue.”
“Have I ever offended you?”
“No.”
“Have I ever met you before?”
“No.”
“Have I committed any evil deeds in the past that caused you to despise me enough to hunt me down here?”
“No.”
“Good.”
After questioning, Ye Shu looked up and spoke calmly, “Since I have never met you nor committed any evil deeds, why did you attack me for no reason?”
Beside him, Xiao Bai’s eyes widened slightly.
No way?
Again?
Is he going to rely on ‘Talk-no-Jutsu’ to survive again?
This Female Lead isn’t Danxia; she is notoriously arrogant, rude, and does as she pleases.
It’s impossible to pass this trial just by talking.
Regarding this point, Ye Shu naturally knew it in his heart.
But these three questions had to be asked.
It was for the sake of one word.
Reason!
“Hmph!”
Hearing this, the pink-skirted woman in mid-air let out a cold snort.
She looked down at Ye Shu with cold eyes, the anger in her heart rising even higher.
This lecherous thief is just as silver-tongued as before.
In her previous life, he had taken advantage of her many times in the Magical Beast Mountain Range.
She had been foolish enough to think he only did it because he had no choice while saving her.
Later, to repay him, she even recommended him to join the Qingxuan Sect and foolishly fell in love with him, repeatedly breaking the heart of her Senior Brother Su Xiao.
Eventually, the Demonic Path invaded, causing her Senior Brother to die while protecting the Qingxuan Sect, while this Ye Shu below her abandoned the sect and fled alone.
Only then did she finally snap to her senses.
In this life, she already understood.
As long as she killed this guy from the very beginning, the Qingxuan Sect wouldn’t be targeted by the Demonic Path, her Senior Brother wouldn’t die because of him, and none of it would happen.
Ye Shu…
was the root of all evil!
“I, Lin Qingxue, need no reason to kill.”
“Just prepare to die!”
Lin Qingxue gave a delicate shout and spoke no more.
The long sword in her hand flipped, spiritual power gathered, and in an instant, another Sword Qi slashed out, heading straight for Ye Shu.
Chua—
This sword light arrived in the blink of an eye.
Combined with Lin Qingxue’s angry strike, it was impossible for Ye Shu to dodge with his cultivation level.
But in fact, Ye Shu had no intention of dodging at all.
He stood where he was, his expression unruffled, watching the sword light slash toward him.
“Scared stiff?”
Lin Qingxue sneered in her heart.
As expected, he’s just trash with a brain full of lust.
He’s inferior to Senior Brother in every way.
In my previous life, I actually took a fancy to this kind of person; I must have been blind!
However, in the next second.
Ye Shu let out a sudden roar.
“Master, save me!”
Crack—
A crisp sound suddenly echoed within Ye Shu’s body.
Immediately after, a strange power erupted instantly, filling his entire body as three hundred and sixty-one acupoints lit up at once.
Heaven Rank Dou Technique—Ghost Possession!
The sword light arrived in an instant, but Ye Shu raised his hand and made a light grasping motion in the Void Realm.
Crack—
The sword light shattered abruptly.
“How…
how is this possible?”
Lin Qingxue’s beautiful eyes widened as she spoke in disbelief.
But in the next second, she suddenly recalled that in her previous life, whenever Ye Shu encountered an irresistible crisis, he could always turn danger into safety or even turn defeat into victory.
It seemed there was always a mysterious power helping him.
She used to think it was luck or hidden strength, but now it seemed…
This guy was clearly pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger!
Damn it!
She had been so focused on killing Ye Shu early on that she had forgotten this crucial piece of information.
Without any hesitation.
Run!
Lin Qingxue formed a hand seal, and the Flying Sword beneath her feet instantly turned into a streak of light, carrying her toward the depths of the forest.
“Hmph!
Thinking of escaping?”
Feeling the abundant power within his body, Ye Shu raised his eyes and looked at the fleeing Lin Qingxue with a cold snort.
“You want to leave just after arriving?
There’s no such thing as a free lunch.”
With that, his figure suddenly vanished from the spot.
The next moment he appeared, he was already three zhang in front of Lin Qingxue.
Arriving in the blink of an eye, he threw a punch.
This punch showed absolutely no mercy to the fairer sex.
It struck Lin Qingxue directly in the lower abdomen, causing her eyes to bulge and her body to arch like a shrimp.
“Pfft—”
Lin Qingxue spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying.
She skipped several times across the surface of the stream before crashing heavily onto the riverbank, rolling a few times before finally coming to a stop.
“Ugh…
cough cough…”
Lin Qingxue propped herself up with one hand, trying to lift her body, but could only spit out another mouthful of blood, her entire being incredibly weak.
In the next second, Ye Shu’s figure appeared by the riverbank.
He slowly walked toward the fallen Lin Qingxue.
Xiao Bai’s eyes lit up on the side.
Great opportunity!
As long as he beats the Female Lead down, he can appeal to her reason and emotions.
With Ye Shu’s eloquence, he can surely make her change her mind and return to the protagonist’s side.
He’ll definitely do that…
right?
But looking at Ye Shu’s cold eyes, Xiao Bai’s heart skipped a beat.
This guy’s gaze…
It seems like he wants to kill!
And it indeed seemed to be the case.
Ye Shu slowly walked up to Lin Qingxue, looked down at her from above, and spoke calmly:
“If you want to kill someone, you must be prepared to be killed yourself.”
Hearing this, Lin Qingxue’s eyes widened suddenly.
She looked at Ye Shu in disbelief, fear and regret finally surfacing in her eyes.
She had never imagined that the man before her would actually try to kill her.
But Ye Shu’s gaze told her.
He really was going to do it.
“Don’t…”
She was about to beg for mercy when she saw Ye Shu had already raised his fist.
Without the slightest hesitation, he swung it down.
“No!”
Lin Qingxue closed her eyes in fear.
However, the imagined death did not come.
Is he scaring me?
This thought made Lin Qingxue open her eyes.
Before her eyes, that fist stopped three inches from the tip of her nose.
But it wasn’t because Ye Shu had shown mercy; rather, a pale hand was firmly grasping his arm.
It turned out that at some point…
A red figure had already appeared beside Ye Shu.
Danxia looked down at Lin Qingxue, who had been beaten half to death by Ye Shu, and let out a slow sigh.
In her previous life, this little girl and her young disciple had experienced much in the Magical Beast Mountain Range, and she had seen it all.
Yet now she suddenly appeared and wanted to kill him.
There is no water without a source in this world; there was only one possibility.
Lin Qingxue had also been reborn.
Danxia looked at Ye Shu and slowly shook her head.
“Stop now, my dear disciple.”
