Chapter 431 – Pavilion Master! (2/2)
“Which one of you is the leader!?” asked Yang Ye.
All of them looked at a man who stood at the front. He was around 20 plus in age, and he was one of the few at the second rank of the Spirit Realm amongst them. The man met Yang Ye’s gaze. His gaze had no respect, and there was even a trace of disdain in the depths of his eyes as he said, “It was Big Sister A’Nu, but she encountered something and had to come here later. So, it’s me now!”
When he spoke up to here, the man instantly said, “You’re our Pavilion Master?”
Zhang Liu’s face turned cold when he heard the man’s tone. However, he didn’t attack because this group of people seemed to be related to the Sword Master, so he naturally didn’t dare attack without the Sword Master’s orders!
Yang Ye frowned, and then he glanced at them and said, “All of you seem to have a problem with me?”
Zhang Liu’s eyelids twitched. He’d been by Yang Ye’s side for some time now, so he was quite familiar with Yang Ye’s temper. Even though Yang Ye seemed to be calm and friendly on the surface, he knew that Yang Ye was furious!
“We dare not!” The man in the lead spoke indifferently. “I’m just slightly curious about Pavilion Master’s strength. Zhang s.h.i.+ would like to experience Pavilion Master’s strength.”
He felt extreme admiration towards Qin Xiyue because she didn’t just possess strength, she even had ability and wisdom. So, no one in the entire a.s.sa.s.sin’s Pavilion would have any objections if they were to acknowledge Qin Xiyue as the Pavilion Master. Yet now, they had to suddenly acknowledge someone they’d never met before as the Pavilion Master and listen to that person’s commands. It wasn’t just him, all the others behind him were discontent as well!
It would be fine if their Pavilion Master was at the Exalt Realm or even the peak of the Spirit Realm, but it was actually a second rank Spirit Realm profounder. How could prideful existences like them be willing to submit before such a Pavilion Master?
Yang Ye shook his head and said, “In the beginning, I was rather happy when I saw all of you. After all, your strengths are really not bad, but I’m very disappointed right now!” He was truly disappointed because while their strengths weren’t bad, Qin Xiyue had clearly not taught them well.
“We’re quite disappointed in Pavilion Master as well!” Zhang s.h.i.+ spoke coldly without any fear. In the a.s.sa.s.sin’s Pavilion, his strength was shocking, and his natural talent was merely inferior to A’Nu. Moreover, at least 30% of the members of the a.s.sa.s.sin’s Pavilion obeyed his command. So, he expected that even if he offended this so-called Pavilion Master, Qin Xiyue wouldn’t punish him and would even try to rope him in.
Yang Ye glanced at Zhang s.h.i.+ before he said, “Ask A’Nu to see me right now. She doesn’t have to come if she isn’t here in 15 minutes!” It was A’Nu who was leading the group this time, so he wanted to have a look at her att.i.tude. If she were the same as this fellow, then all of them could just die!
At that time, he’d given Qin Xiyue everything he’d acc.u.mulated in order to foster these fellows. Now, while they had been fostered into a.s.sa.s.sins, many of them were ungrateful b.a.s.t.a.r.ds. So he was naturally extremely displeased!
Zhang s.h.i.+ laughed with ridicule, and he was just about to ridicule Yang Ye. Meanwhile, a figure flashed out from the distant forest, and it was extremely swift. It arrived in front of Yang Ye in less than a few breaths of time.
“A’Nu greets the Pavilion Master!” A’Nu bowed respectfully to Yang Ye. She would naturally not act so ignorantly as Zhang s.h.i.+ and the others had acted when facing Yang Ye. Even though she had no knowledge of Yang Ye’s exact strength, she usually heard a word or two about him from Qin Xiyue. So, she knew that he definitely possessed extraordinary strength. But his cultivation is really quite low….
“You’re their leader?” Yang Ye spoke indifferently.
“Yes!”
Yang Ye nodded, and then he told her about the att.i.tudes Zhang s.h.i.+ and the others had towards him just now. As they watched Yang Ye speak about them to A’Nu while standing right in front of them, Zhang s.h.i.+ and some of the others behind him smiled coldly while their disdain towards Yang Ye grew deeper.
“So, how do you think they should be dealt with?” Yang Ye gazed at the woman with an amused expression. The woman wasn’t beautiful, but she was at the third rank of the Spirit Realm, and she was the strongest in terms of cultivation amongst them. So, Yang Ye intended to have a look at her att.i.tude towards the matter.
A’Nu’s expression was slightly unsightly as she turned around to glance fiercely at Zhang s.h.i.+, but she felt quite helpless in her heart. Zhang s.h.i.+’s strength and cultivation were only slightly inferior to her. Coupled with the fact that he was an independent a.s.sa.s.sin recruited by Qin Xiyue and had many followers in the a.s.sa.s.sin’s Pavilion, so she was really helpless against him. Unless Qin Xiyue gave the order to kill him!
A’Nu pondered deeply for a moment before he said, “Pavilion Master, Zhang s.h.i.+ and the others deserve death for offending you. However, it was their first mistake and they hadn’t committed it intentionally. Moreover, the pavilion sorely lacks experts, so I hope Pavilion Master can allow Zhang s.h.i.+ to atone for his mistake with meritorious service. May I know what Pavilion Master thinks!”
Zhang s.h.i.+ instantly laughed coldly when he heard A’Nu. He knew that she would dare to do anything to him. However, he didn’t speak out and provoke Yang Ye again. After all, he still had to give A’Nu face. So, he just glanced coldly at Yang Ye while disdain suffused the corners of his mouth.
