Facing a woman like Ye Siyu, Qin Yu was very clear on the fact that it was possible for him to die tragically if he wasnât careful. If he was still the former Xie Di, he would be filled with disdain and contempt toward this woman. [1. TL Comment: *Cough* *Cough* Karma maybe? XD] But today, he had to treat her cautiously or he wouldnât even know how he died.
After Siyu froze the Madam, her gaze swept over the Yi Family. The group that had previously charged forward aggressively appeared as meek as mice in front of a cat. They were all either begging for forgiveness or trembling on their knees. Some of the subordinates who were closer to Ye Siyu couldnât stand her tyrannical and icy cold aura and directly fell on the ground limply.
Ye Siyu actually never had any interest in them. After she swept her gaze over them, her icy gaze landed on Qin Yuâs body. Qin Yu felt a chill and couldnât help but shiver.
âDonât hurt my Da Ge!â Mu Rongyue was afraid that Ye Siyuâs gaze would directly freeze Qin Yu into an ice sculpture and quickly dashed forward in fright, covering Qin Yuâs body with her own.
âYou two are siblings?â Ye Siyu asked expressionlessly.
âNo, but he is my Da Ge.â Mu Rongyue tried to make her tone as respectful and polite as possible because she was afraid of angering such a frightful character. âSenior, everything happened because of me. They donât have anything to do with this, so if you want to kill me then kill me. Iâm begging you, please let everyone else off! I think you are a very talented and honorable person, so surely youâre able to see even the finest details and distinguish between right and wrong. Plus, I donât think youâre the type of person that would harm the innocent.â
âHmph, youâre quite eloquent,â Ye Siyu snorted coldly. âSince you arenât siblings then there is no need for you to protect that guy. Men are never a good thing.â
âSenior, I...â Mu Rongyue still wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Qin Yu who stepped forward.
âXiao Yue, move aside. Let me talk to her.â
Mu Rongyue was pleasantly surprised. âDa Ge, you can stand up now.â
Qin Yu nodded. Even with the help of the Earth Spirit Pearl and theãSecrets of Eternal Lifeã, he was still barely able to stand up. A small child would still be able to poke him to death.
âDa Ge, be careful. Donât be impulsive.â By now, Mu Rongyue was able to somewhat understand Qin Yuâs character and was truly worried that he would do something impulsive. However, she still didnât understand Qin Yu enough. Even though Qin Yu was formerly Xie Di and still had Xie Diâs arrogant and domineering temperament, he wasnât an idiot and wouldnât court death.
âDonât worry, Iâll be alright.â Qin Yu comforted her as he stepped in front of Mu Rongyue, directly facing Ye Siyu.
âLooks like you have some of the guts a man should have.â Ye Siyu was still cold as she slowly walked toward Qin Yu.
Mu Rongyue saw Ye Siyu approaching and was somewhat nervous. Qin Yu held her hand, giving her a comforting look as he whispered, âDonât worry, nothing will happen.â
âEn.â Mu Rongyueâs heart shook as she felt something tug at her heartstrings. This man before her eyes was somebody she could rely on. So as long as she was by his side, she really didnât feel that nervous.
Ye Siyu didnât have much interest in Mu Rongyue and walked closer to Qin Yu. Her icy gaze landed on him as she slowly asked, âWas the final form you used just now Scarlet Blood Sword Artâs âHeaven Slaying Slash?ââ
Ye Siyu was attracted here because of the move âHeaven Slaying Slash.â
Although Ye Siyu hadnât been there at that very moment, with her strength, no movement within a thousand miles could escape her eyes as long as she was willing.
Ye Siyu knew that the Scarlet Blood Sword Art was the skill that made Xie Di famous. Originally, it only had twelve forms but he created the thirteenth form, âHeaven Slaying Slash.â
The final form he created was extremely strong and the repercussions on the user were costly. Therefore, although he had passed on the sword art to his disciples, he never taught anyone that move. In other words, in this world, Xie Di was the only one who was able to fully use âHeaven Slaying Slash.â
But Qin Yu had just used it. Although its power was a million of times weaker than Xie Diâs, it could still be considered an inferior version of âHeaven Slaying Slash.â It was clear how strong the move was based on how Qin Yu, a mere Origin Realm cultivator, was able to wound a Transformation Realm master. Ye Siyu couldnât deny that if Qin Yu grew stronger, the moveâs power would only become more and more frightening.
Of course, that wasnât what she cared about. What she wanted to know right now was how Qin Yu was able to learn that move. Could Xie Di have been the one who taught him?
Did Xie Di really just impart this supreme skill on a nobody like this Origin Realm ant? Although it was truly hard to believe, it also wasnât impossible. Xie Diâs actions were always unconventional since he did what he pleased, which was why they called him âXie Di.â [1. Xie Di (éªå¸) literally translates to Evil/Demonic Emperor.]
Only now did Qin Yu realize why Ye Siyu came out. So it was actually because of âHeaven Slaying Slash.â He knew that it would be impossible to conceal this move, so he calmly admitted it. âYes, itâs indeed the thirteenth form of Scarlet Blood Sword, âHeaven Slaying Slash.ââ
Ye Siyuâs icy and beautiful face trembled slightly when she heard his answer. âWho taught it to you?â
âHe wasnât willing to tell me so Iâm not sure of his name. However, his appearance is quite memorable. Imposing, cold, stern, domineering... sometimes, there was also a hint of demonic charm.â The appearance of the person Qin Yu described was the former Xie Di.
Ye Siyuâs frosty expression couldnât stay cold any longer as her face changed slightly. Her body seemed to tremble slightly as she said emotionally, âItâs him... itâs really him! Youngster, where did he pass on the Scarlet Blood Sword Art to you?â
âAt Ten Thousand Beast Mountain. At the time, I was training there to gain experience but encountered danger and was saved by him. Maybe we were brought together by fate since he passed on this sword art to me.â Qin Yu couldnât do anything but continue to weave his story. Now, only the name of Xie Di could scare away this woman. If he wanted to leave the Underground City today unharmed, he would have to rely on his relation to Xie Di in the story.
But he hadnât expected that someone else would believe his fabricated story.
Ever since Mu Rongyue met Qin Yu, she had always been puzzled by Qin Yuâs skills. However, it was like the clouds had cleared and she could see the sun now since she finally understood how Qin Yu changed from a cripple to a genius, as well as how he knew about both pill and tool refinement and how he could use a powerful sword art like Scarlet Blood Sword. So from the beginning, everything was because he had received this honorable seniorâs inheritance.
âWhat?! Ten Thousand Beast Mountain?â Ye Siyu suddenly lost her cool as her expression turned strange.
âHe came to Ten Thousand Beast Mountain but why didnât he see me? Why?â She seemed to be talking to herself, as well as asking Qin Yu at the same time.
Qin Yu deliberately assumed a confused expression. âMay I ask if you had something to do with that honorable Senior?â
âNâno, nothing...â Ye Siyu naturally didnât want to let a trifling ant know what had happened between her and Xie Di. âTell me, why did he come here? Donât tell me that it was just to pass on the sword art to you?â
Qin Yu hastily shook his head as he responded, âOf course not. That honorable Senior only said he came here to see a friend and just saved me along the way.â
âFriend? What friend does he have at Ten Thousand Beast Mountain?â Ye Siyu stepped forward and asked while staring fervently at Qin Yu.
âAbout that... Iâm also not sure.â Qin Yu could only continue to fabricate his story as he said, âThat Senior didnât wish to tell me, however, I accidentally heard Senior mumble somebodyâs name while he was dreaming. What was it again?â Qin Yu pretended to think hard.
âWho was it?! Tell me!â Ye Siyu almost screamed. Her icy expression and arrogant aura had long since disappeared.
âWhat... what was it ah? I...â Qin Yu rapped his head as he tried his best to remember.
âYou damned youngster! If you canât remember, Iâll kill you!â Ye Siyu shouted sternly in a tone laced with menace.
The threat seemed to have really worked on Qin Yu as he suddenly appeared to remember before he shouted loudly, âAh, I remember! The surname was Ye! Ye something... The name... I truly canât remember the name...â
Qin Yuâs face was bitter, appearing helpless as he spoke. The reason why he didnât say the whole name âYe Siyuâ was so that Ye Siyu would say it herself, thereby raising his credibility.
âThe personâs surname was Ye? Was it Ye Siyu?â Ye Siyu blurted out. Just like Qin Yu calculated, she was filled with excitement.
âYe Siyu, thatâs right! It was Ye Siyu! Hey, wait a minute, how did you know?â Qin Yu deliberately put on a very amazed expression. He stared at Ye Siyu in shock, his eyes filled with surprise, as if he had just seen superman.
âI... I...â *giggle* Ye Siyu suddenly laughed like a lunatic. âHehe! Great, just great! He still hasnât forgotten about Ye Siyu and still remembers that the world has such a woman that loves him so dearly.â
âEh? That, um... are you alright?â Qin Yu looked startled as he watched Ye Siyu act as if she had lost her mind. In his heart, he thought, This womanâs already so old, yet how is she still so damn crazy?
âIâm fine.â Ye Siyuâs smile abruptly disappeared. Her expression suddenly sinking as her voice once again became incomparably cold. âBrat, where is your honorable senior now?â
Since Xie Di came to look for her, why didnât she see him? She had to know the reason why.
Qin Yu scratched his head. With a voice filled with distress he replied, âHe left three months ago.â
âWhat? He left?â Ye Siyu once again screeched, âHe hadnât even seen Ye Siyu! How could he have left just like that?â
Qin Yu exposed another exaggerated expression of surprise (which was naturally fake), âHow did you know that he didnât see Ye Siyu?â
âSpeak less nonsense and just answer my questions. Why did he leave?â Ye Siyu angrily interrogated.
Qin Yu face turned bitter again as he said, âHow would I know? When he left, he only said something weird. He said, âitâs better to not meet than to meet. After ten years, Iâll return.â Iâm not sure what that means...â After speaking, he adopted a harmless face and an expression of bewilderment.
What Qin Yu said made the previously excited Ye Siyu incomparably gloomy. She stared at the ceiling soullessly as she mumbled repeatedly, âBetter to not meet than meet... ten years, you still remember your ten year rule. Alright, after ten years, I hope youâll give me an explanation and gifts. Otherwise, I would rather fall and become a demon, killing the common people with your name and killing all the women and close relatives that you loved most. Hahaha...!â
Toward the end, the originally sacred immortal aura around her body suddenly changed drastically as demonic flames leapt in her eyes. A strange red light flitted past her pupils with a ray of bloodlust that matched her crazy laughter. She was originally a fairy like character, yet now she was a terrifying and deranged demon.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Qin Yu stared at Ye Siyu as his heart trembled. Had this woman gone insane? What kind of demonic art did she cultivate?
