Chapter 40 Good Luck to You
Huo Du was dead.
The cultivators of the Yuhua Sect and the Huo Manor were furious. Looking at Ye Xuanâs leaving figure, they rode the wind and chased after him.
The cultivators of the Snow Palace, led by Feng Qingxue, also chased after Ye Xuan. Her undergarment was still in Ye Xuanâs hands, and she would not let this matter rest.
In an instant, everyone in the mountain range disappeared as they chased after him on their flying swords.
On the Invincible Sword Box.
Iron Slave turned around and looked behind him. âYoung Master, they have caught up.â Ye Xuan said casually, âItâs fine.â
âYoung Master, both you and Mr. Dugu are so powerful. Why donât we kill them all and get rid of any future trouble?â Iron Slave asked.
âItâs not as simple as you think,â Ye Xuan said in a low voice and turned to look at Dugu Qiubai. âDugu, you should have noticed it too.â
Dugu Qiubai nodded his head. âThere are living beings that have escaped from the Celestial Secret Realm. This matter is much more complicated than we thought. These living beings are extremely powerful. If we wait for them to recover, the world will be in for a catastrophe.â
Iron Slaveâs expression changed. âYoung Master, what does killing these people have to do with living beings escaping?â
Ye Xuan was speechless.
Outside Celestial City.
Everyone floated down from the Invincible Sword Box and appeared in the wilderness outside the city. One figure after another followed closely behind, their killing intent bursting out and enveloping Ye Xuan.
âDo you all wish to continue fighting for the supreme treasure?â
âMake your move!â
Ye Xuan said in a low voice.
The old man from the Huo Manor walked out and waved his sleeves in anger. âCrown Prince Xia, you killed the eldest young master of the Huo Manor. Donât even think about leaving Celestial City alive.â
Ye Xuan replied, âCelestial City is part of Great Xia. I can come and go as I please. As for your Huo Manor, it will be gone very soon.â
The old man raised his arm and crushed a spirit stone in his palm. âCrown Prince Xia, youâll soon know how stupid it is to make an enemy of the Huo Manor.â
Shouting?
Wasnât this exactly what Ye Xuan wanted?
He had already planned to get rid of the Huo Manor and support the Tantai Manor to become the master of Celestial City.
Now that the Huo Manor had taken the initiative to deliver themselves to him, how could he not be satisfied?
Whoosh.
Whoosh.
One figure after another flew out of the city and landed in the wilderness. The person in the lead was the head of the Huo Clan, Huo Jiuzhen.
The old man stepped forward and bowed. âPatriarch, the eldest young master has been killed by Crown Prince Xia.â
Huo Jiuzhenâs expression changed, and his eyes were filled with killing intent. Huo Du had always been the hope of the Huo Manor. It was because of him that the Huo Clan could have a relationship with Yuhua Sect. Now that Huo Du had been killed, their relationship with Yuhua Sect had been cut off.
Without Yuhua Sect, the Huo Clanâs status would plummet.
âCrown Prince Xia, Iâll make you pay with your blood.â
âThe murderer will be killed. Only you are allowed to attack me, but Iâm not allowed to kill?â Ye Xuan said coldly. âEnough, cut the crap. If you want revenge, come at me together!â
âAfter today, the Huo Clan will no longer exist in Great Xia!â
As soon as he finished speaking, Dugu Qiubai had already made his move. His sword was like a graceful swan, pointing directly at Huo Jiuzhen. The latter shouted angrily, âLetâs kill Crown Prince Xia together!â
Huo Jiuzhen wasnât afraid of Ye Xuanâs identity. In his opinion, Celestial City was high and far away from the Emperor. Even if they killed Ye Xuan, the royal family of Great Xia couldnât do anything to them.
At worst, he would just leave Great Xia and head to another empire.
Clank.
Clank. Sword Qi crisscrossed, and cold light burst forth. Dugu Qiubaiâs figure shuttled through the crowd in front of him. Wherever he passed, everyone was sent flying, and blood spurted out like columns. In an instant, dozens of people were dead.
One-hit kill.
Huo Jiuzhenâs face twitched as he looked at the corpses in the wilderness. He quickly turned to look at the experts of the Yuhua Sect and said, âSeniors, Crown Prince Xia has killed your disciples. Please help.â
Yuhua Sect had already lost two experts to Dugu Qiubai. They knew that they were no match for Dugu Qiubai, so they were helpless in the face of Huo Jiuzhenâs request. At this moment, three figures floated down from the sky. The person was none other than the woman who rode the Dragon Elephant Beast with Huo Du in the past. She was the third miss of Yuhua Sect, Yun Xiyue. When Huo Jiuzhen saw Yun Xiyue, he bowed.
âThird Miss, please avenge my son.â
âPatriarch Huo, heâs already dead. My condolences!â Yun Xiyue said.
From her words, it was obvious that she didnât intend to fight Ye Xuan for Huo Du. âCrown Prince Xia, weâve met. Iâm Yun Xiyue from the Yuhua Sect. I want to be friends with you.â
âWhen I met you at the city gate, I knew that you were a dragon among men. I wonder if you would like to join Yuhua Sect!â
Ye Xuan glanced at Yun Xiyue. âNot interested.â
Yun Xiyue did not get angry. âCrown Prince Xia, please think about it. If Xia can get the protection of the Yuhua Sect, it will become the most powerful empire in the world. Not just anyone can join Yuhua Sect.â
Ye Xuan shook his head and smiled. âMiss Yun, donât waste your breath. I donât intend to join any force.â
In Yun Xiyueâs eyes, Huo Du was just one of the many personal disciples of the Yuhua Sect. If it werenât for the secret realm in Celestial City, she would never have had any contact with Huo Du and would not have returned with him.
âCrown Prince Xia, donât blame me for not warning you. Huo Duâs master is famous for taking revenge for the smallest grievance. Since you killed his beloved disciple, he will definitely turn the Great Xia Empire upside down.â
âIf you choose to join Yuhua Sect, I can recommend you to become the sect masterâs disciple. That way, you wonât have to worry about revenge.â
âNo need, Iâll wait for him!â Ye Xuan refused again.
Yun Xiyue smiled. âThen, Iâll wish you good luck.â
âI also wish you good luck, Miss Yun,â Ye Xuan said.
Yun Xiyue gave Ye Xuan a meaningful look. âLetâs go.â
Huo Jiuzhen looked at Yun Xiyueâs back as she left and was instantly dumbfounded. The cultivators of the Yuhua Sect had left just like that, giving up on the Huo Clan?
âYour helper from the Huo Clan seems to have left,â Ye Xuan said. âNow, tell me how you want to die.â
âEven without Yuhua Sect, Iâll take you down with me,â Huo Jiuzhen said coldly. Perish together?
He was too naive.
âIron Slave, go, kill him!â
âIâll be gentle, old man. Iâll show you what itâs like to burst a chicken with a big sword,â Iron Slave said with a silly smile.
Whoosh. Whoosh.
On the other side.
Yun Xiyue left with the cultivators of the Yuhua Sect. As they walked, an old man asked, âMiss, why didnât you help the Huo Clan?â
âItâs not worth it,â Yun Xiyue said. The old man looked puzzled. âHuo Du is Elder Wuâs personal disciple. You should know that. If he knows that Huo Du has died, he would definitely attack the Great Xia Empire. Yuhua Sect will have a war with the Great Xia Empire sooner or later.â
Yun Xiyue shook her head. âElder Wu can only represent him. He canât represent the entire Yuhua Sect. Remember not to make an enemy of Crown Prince Xia, or you will regret it.â
âIt wonât be long before Crown Prince Xiaâs name is known throughout the world.â Everyone was silent and followed Yun Xiyue closely. The latterâs mind moved. âMaster, did Crown Prince Xia discover your existence?â
âYes, he discovered us when we were outside the secret realm. However, he didnât make a sound and didnât make a big deal out of it.â A hoarse voice came through. âHe wished you good luck just now so that you would be on guard against me. He was probably worried that you would be possessed by me.â
âYou chose not to be his enemy, and that was the right choice.â
âIâll listen to you, Master.â Yun Xiyue turned around and looked down at the city. âCrown Prince Xia. How interesting. Iâll remember you.â
