Chapter 699: Extremely fierce enemies (2/2)
Once again, she tried to circulate her qi, but there was no reaction.
“My dantian…my martial arts…” She stared at Cang Qiuzi in disbelief, but he only smiled at her coldly.
“It’s already good enough that you escaped with your life intact. What else do you want? Yao Yao, you’ll have to thank your martial uncle thoroughly this time!”
“You…you did this on purpose!” Finally, Duanmu Yao grew some intelligence. She was filled with indignation, but lacked the strength to retaliate.
Cang Qiuzi laughed coldly. “Yao Yao, from now on, you’ll have to help martial uncle take good care of Li Jianxin,1 ah!”
Li Jianxin was none other than the master of Celestial Mountain Sword Sect’s real name. Everyone on the peak hailed him as master, while outsiders simply called him the sword sect elder. Cang Qiuzi only dared to use his full name behind his back. He had come with Duanmu Yao for a chance to kill Long Feiye and Han Yunxi, but the situation made him change his mind. He not only wanted to kill that couple, but use Long Feiye’s hand to injure Duanmu Yao as well.
He thus changed the original plan and acted according to his discretion, waiting to rescue Duanmu Yao only after Long Feiye stabbed her in the gut. With Duanmu Yao permanently crippled, the girl would have no choice but to rely on him. In the past, she relied on the love of her sect members backing her to haggle with him. He even had to suffer losses in the face of the Tang Clan incident. Now that she was crippled, she had no right to talk terms with him anymore.
“You’re despicable!” Duanmu Yao raged.
Cang Qiuzi only stood up with a cold tone. “Yao Yao, your martial uncle risked his life to save you, but you repay kindness with enmity. Then I might as well live up to my ‘despicable’ name…” As he finished, he turned to leave.
Now he was simply abandoning her to the wild! Wouldn’t she die from her injuries in a place like this? Furious and aggrieved, Duanmu Yao never expected this day to come. Although she wasn’t willing, she faced nothing but death unless she begged Cang Qiuzi for help. Very soon, she was yelling after him. “Marital uncle, Yao Yao was wrong! As long as martial uncle takes Yao Yao back to Celestial Mountain, Yao Yao will listen to anything you say.”
She could only endure until she returned. Master would definitely find a way to save her and recover her martial arts. Cang Qiuzi finally doubled back. Instead of pulling her to her feet, he asked coldly, “Besides the people from the City of Daughters, what other supporters do you have?”
“None,” Duanmu Yao admitted.
“Then who threw that rock at the end?” Cang Qiuzi couldn’t figure it out. Anyone who could throw so accurately from such a distance had be to formidable. Moreover, they must have been familiar enough with the Qimen Dunjia to remain hidden while rescuing them both. But neither he nor Duanmu Yao had seen anyone after exiting the matrix.
“I don’t know either,” Duanmu Yao had nearly died back there, so she didn’t have time to consider the question at all. Now it remained a mystery.
“Could it be a helper invited by Lady Leng Yue?” she guessed.
“They’re not a simple opponent. Ask Lady Leng Yue another time,” Cang Qiuzi instructed. He had to figure out who that person was. They would definitely be a huge hindrance in the martial arts circles!
Duanmu Yao agreed before Cang Qiuzi helped her to her feet. His hand cirlced around her waist before a boorish grin rose to his lips.
“Martial uncle!” Duanmu Yao’s voice was choked with sobs, but she couldn’t push him away. She knew Cang Qiuzi was an extremely lustful man. “Martial uncle, we can…have a good talk over anything we need to discuss, can’t we?” Duanmu Yao pleaded.
Cang Qiuzi didn’t release her, but tightened his grip instead. “Tell martial uncle how you served your master in the past?”
“I never did!” Duanmu Yao grew furious. Although master doted on her, it was always like a father to his daughter. Their relationship was pure and spotless.
“Never?” Cang Qiuzi didn’t believe it.
“Don’t you know better than anyone else what kind of man master is?” Duanmu Yao asked.
“Heheh, then that’s even better. From now on, you’ll only serve your martial uncle alone,” Cang Qiuzi laughed out loud. “Your face is already like this, but your body, ah, is something marital uncle still quite likes.”
Distress filled her features as Duanmu Yao felt her nose sting from the onset of tears. She almost broken down as she shoved at him, but Cang Qiuzi only said coldly, “Do you believe me when I say I’ll leave you to die at the foot of Celestial Mountain?”
Duanmu Yao grew too frightened to resist after that. She allowed Cang Qiuzi to hold her as he pleased as his dirty fingers roved over her body. Helpless, she could only cry and wish that it was senior brother touching her like this, not this man!
Senior brother, save Yao Yao…please save Yao Yao! She cried out in her heart, but Long Feiye couldn’t hear her. Even if he did, he wouldn’t save her now.
Currently, Long Feiye was with Han Yunxi and facing off against an extremely fierce foe! That person was none other than…
1. Li Jianxin (李剑心) – Li is a surname that means “plum tree,” Jianxin is literally “sword heart.”
