28 You Will Never Escape My Hatred (1/2)

“I have already received some information.” The man in black kept his head lowered and spoke nervously, “Our men have already reached some sources, and they are now following your instructions. Your plan is truly brilliant. It is only a matter of time before we hear some good news,”

The man in white nodded, “Fair enough. I hope that you will not let me down.”

The man in black was sweating profusely and answered loudly, “We won’t let you down, my lord!”

The man in white laughed and made a gesture. The girls behind him stepped forward and started to push the man’s wheelchair to lead him away.

This mysterious white robed man turned out to be a disabled person.

“My lord, about Ye Xiao…” The man in black asked hurriedly.

The man in white, who was sitting on the wheelchair, didn’t even look back as he said, “When the violent disturbance comes, we won’t need Ye Xiao anymore, do we?”

“You are right.” The man in black felt inspired.

The man in white entered the house which was located in the center of the courtyard.

Suddenly, shadows appeared and started quivering, and then - Puff! - the courtyard suddenly vanished. In fact, the bamboo trees suddenly started to move like they could actually walk, and the countless bamboo trees had quickly covered every open space where the courtyard was just seconds ago.

Instantly, the open space, which was previously occupied by the courtyard, became part of the bamboo forest. This place had actually fully integrated into the bamboo forest.

A faint voice appeared and sighed, “My Camouflage Array of Inversing Five Elements is still imperfect… If only it could be soundproof… and keep the sound, smell and spiritual energy inside from being detected from the outside… it becomes the perfect Anti-location Array…” These words must’ve originated from the mysterious man in white.

One of the girls, Wan-Er spoke softly, “Master, the auction of the supreme dan beads…”

“Go!” The man in white spoke gently, “At least get three beads back to me. Supreme dan beads with dan clouds is something that even I have never seen before.”

Wan-Er was astonished, “Master, maybe there are less than three beads at the auction… Maybe there is only one bead.”

“There must be over three.” The man in white confidently said.

Their voices had now completely disappeared.

The man in black crouched and then he flew up. He flew away and also disappeared.

…

Since the conversation with the three officers, it had been rather quiet around Ye Xiao. Everything was moving along peacefully.

Ye Xiao was free but he stayed at home. He was seizing every minute he had to cultivate with concentration. He was converting all the spiritual qi in his body into gelid qi to further improve his strength.

During this time, he had found a pleasant surprise. The scorching qi, which had appeared alongside the gelid qi, didn’t really disappear. Instead, it hid inside his Jing and Mai and all over his body. Although it was weak, it still existed.

In other words, the two kinds of spiritual qi that were brought by cultivating the East-rising Purple Qi were working together; one showed on the outside, while the other was quietly working on the inside. That also meant that the present level of East-rising Purple Qi contained two skills. He needed to practice both of them.

Because of this, he worked even harder.

He used to have some spare time in a day to drink some tea, but now he didn’t even want that anymore.

He was either reading or cultivating. He was like the creme a la creme of a group of good students.

The steward felt excited because of this. He thought that the young lord had finally grown up and had completely transformed. He felt that the general would be overjoyed if he were to see this…

The steward was right, but not in the way he had intended. His young master had indeed transformed, but in a different way!

Zuo Wuji and Lan Langlang had come to Ye Xiao twice, but Ye Xiao had driven them away multiple times, “Piss off! You foppish black sheep, don’t disturb me from becoming a supreme cultivator. Go on with your own businesses!”

Zuo Wuji and Lan Langlang felt speechless for his fanfaronade.

“Such a bastard. He actually called himself a supreme cultivator…”

“He must be daydreaming!”

“I say he never woke up!”

“I really want to punch him, but I fear that I can’t beat him. We are no match for him even though he isn’t a supreme cultivator, I am afraid…”

“He’ll beat the crap out of us!”

“It is fine that he daydreamed, but he actually dared to say we are foppish black sheep…”

“That’s true. Like he isn’t one of us...”

“We obviously are in the same boat. Wasn’t it the older one laughing at the younger?!”

“Of course! We are the ‘three lords’. We are even walking side by side.”

“Humph! That foppish fool, I will beat him up eventually.”

“Right! We can’t let him leave the glorious ‘three lords’.”

“Wait and see! Humph!”

“Humph!”

…

It was possible to kick the two of them out of the house, but there was someone else that couldn’t be driven away no matter how hard Ye Xiao had tried.

Most importantly, this one had a whip in her hand, which was purposely given by Ye Xiao’s father to sexually discipline… Oh no, strictly discipline Ye Xiao.

That’s right! She was our adorable Princess Yeyue!

Su Yeyue.

Her dad was the only prince with a non-royal surname in the Kingdom of Chen. To be honored with the title of prince, he must have obtained great merits and should hold great power!

He was Prince Hua-Yang who had three sons and a daughter. He didn’t particularly care about his sons. Instead, his daughter Su Yeyue received all the care in his heart and was like an apple in his eye. Naturally, the girl received special treatment; it seemed like her father feared that she was like something that would melt when he had it in his mouth, and something that would drop when he held it in his hands. He truly spoiled her very much.

It was said that when he named the girl, he gathered every single great scholar in his house to help him think about her name. Finally, he took the concept of ‘when the world revived, the moon shined in the night sky’ so that it represented the surname and the given name perfectly [1].

Thus, she got the name Su Yeyue.
