Chapter 727 – You Refuse To Give Me Face? (2/2)
She heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Thank you!” Actually, she wasn’t afraid of death, but she was afraid that no one would help her take revenge if she died!
Yang Ye lowered his head and gazed at the Sword Spirit, “Hold on for a while longer. I’ll save your main body soon!”
“Thank you!” said the Sword Spirit.
Yang Ye shook his head, “It’s I who should thank you!”
She said, “I’m too weak now and can’t take human form at will, and I can’t execute Heavenrend with you as well. Be careful!”
Yang Ye nodded and said, “It’s fine. I’ve almost mastered the Mortal Sword, and I might not be able to utilize sword techniques for some time.”
She nodded lightly, and then transformed into the ancient sheath in Yang Ye’s grasp.
Yang Ye took a deep breath as he gazed at the ancient sheath, and then he put it away and said, “Come, let’s head to the Hallowed Halls!”
…
Ancient City of Hallows.
The Ancient City of Hallows belonged to the human race, and it was the place in the Hallowed Grounds that had the most experts and was the strongest. At the same time, it had the most monstrous geniuses as well. Because every single one of the geniuses in the top 10 positions on the Hallowed Rankings could surmount their realms of cultivation to do battle.
As he stood outside the Ancient City of Hallows, Yang Ye noticed for the very first time that he was actually so tiny.
The city towered into the clouds, and he couldn’t see the top of it even with his cultivation at the Monarch Realm. As he stood beneath its city walls, he was tiny like an insignificant speck of dirt.
Fu Jinxian explained softly, “The city was jointly created by all the human Saints of the ancient times. The stones that make up the city walls are Obsidian that come from far in the north. These Obsidians are extremely solid, and even Monarch Realm experts would find them difficult to destroy. Besides that, the city is covered in the energy of the Laws which those ancient experts left behind. So, even Half-Saints wouldn’t be able to destroy the city.”
At this moment, Yang Ye’s appearance had changed. He’d used a medicinal pill called the Transfiguration Pill to change his appearance. He wasn’t afraid that others could discern his ident.i.ty because he’d merely utilized the medicinal properties of the pill to change the order of the muscles beneath his face. So, strictly speaking, his face was still his face, but the form of the muscles beneath his face had been changed. So, even Half-Saints would find it impossible to discern anything. Because his face wasn’t altered by a human skin mask or illusory techniques.
On the other hand, Fu Jinxian’s appearance remained the same. That was her own request because only then could she return to the remaining forces of the Fire Spirit Race.
Besides that, Fu Jinxian received news from the Fire Spirit Race’s patriarch. Actually, so long as they were still alive, every single member of the Fire Spirit Race received that news, and their patriarch ordered them to immediately travel to the Ancient City of Hallows.
The two of them had just arrived before the entrance yet were stopped by an old man.
The corners of Yang Ye’s eyes twitched slightly because the old man who guarded the entrance to the city was a Half-Saint!
The old man glanced at them, and then his gaze descended onto Yang Ye in the end. He said, “A human? The Fire Spirit Race?”
Yang Ye and Fu Jinxian nodded.
“Do you have points?” said the old man.
Yang Ye shook his head.
“20 extreme-grade energy stones!” As soon as the old man finished speaking, he added, “Firecrystals will do as well. They must be 100 years old and above.”
The corners of Yang Ye’s mouth twitched. It actually costs 20 extreme-grade energy stones just to enter the city! The Hallowed Halls really knows how to do business!
They walked into the city after handing over 20 extreme-grade energy stones. But they were immediately stopped by 3 men upon entering the city.
“Fu Jinxian? I never expected it to be you!” The white clothed man who led the group sized up Fu Jinxian, and then he smiled, “I’d thought that I’d mistaken you for someone else, but I never expected it to really be you. I heard your Fire Spirit Race was annihilated, is that true? Eh, I never expected that you would have gotten another man. Tsk, tsk. How’s his technique? Is it better than mine? Haha….”
“She’s that Fu Jinxian?” A yellow robed man who stood by the white clothed man’s side instantly had his interests aroused, and he ceaselessly sized her up and clicked his tongue, “What a stunner!”
“Isn’t she!?” The white clothed man smiled, “When I encountered her in the Fire Spirit Race’s territory, she pretended to be intimate with me but actually wanted to kill me, yet she thought I wasn’t aware. But I knew from the beginning. Every time I saw her intending to kill me yet being hesitant while I played with her was truly beyond enjoyable. Haha!”
Fu Jinxian’s face turned ghastly pale. She didn’t really care about her reputation because she didn’t have one for a very long time. She cared about Yang Ye’s att.i.tude towards her because she had gained quite a good understanding of Yang Ye’s temper after being by his side throughout this period. Even though Yang Ye didn’t look down upon her, she knew that he didn’t like what she did.
Sure enough, Yang Ye frowned.
In Yang Ye’s opinion, he really didn’t want to be dragged into Fu Jinxian’s problems, but it was truly not nice for him to just abandon her here. He shook his head, glanced at her, and said, “Let’s go!”
She heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly nodded.
Meanwhile, the white clothed man blocked Yang Ye’s path and said, “Brother, let me discuss something with you!”
“Are you sure that you want to do that?” asked Yang Ye.
He chuckled and said, “Of course, I still want to have some fun with her. You wouldn’t refuse, right?”
Yang Ye turned his head to look at Fu Jinxian, and he asked, “Are you willing?”
She quickly shook her head in response while a trace of terror appeared in her eyes. Because her intuition told her that Yang Ye was getting slightly annoyed.
Yang Ye gazed at the white clothed man and said, “You saw her response!”
The white clothed man restrained his smile, and then he tapped Yang Ye’s chest as he said, “I told you that because I was giving you face. Now, I don’t want to give you face anymore. I’m going to do her right in front of you!”
