Chapter 158: How is Ye Xuan to Blame?
Boom–!!!
Thud, thud, thud–!!!
With Hu Qianzao’s spiritual power driving it, the huge celestial fox shape with nine tails in the sky shook, dropping a shower of pink spiritual light orbs like rain. Each of these light orbs had the power to obliterate life. If they landed on the ground, the area for hundreds of miles around would likely be devoid of life.
Seeing this, Ye Xuan could not afford to be careless, “It looks like it’s impossible for Qian’er to listen to me, I must find a way to restrain her first–! I’m sorry, Qian’er…”
Saying this, Ye Xuan no longer hesitated, spread his arms, and turned the spell, manifesting a huge Tai Chi pattern behind him.
Hum, hum, hum–!!!
Sword energies began to materialize from within the Tai Chi pattern, forming a ring of sword energy behind Ye Xuan. After the first ring of sword energy formed, another ring formed outside the original, each ring of sword energy revolving in the opposite direction around the one inside it.
In the blink of an eye, the sky was filled with thousands of swords of energy as Ye Xuan pointed, sending them up to meet the falling spiritual light orbs. As each sword energy collided with a light orb, loud explosions continuously erupted in the sky.
At that moment, Ye Xuan leaped up, rushing towards Hu Qianzao in the sky. The thousands of sword energies gathered around Ye Xuan, forming a giant sword hundreds of meters long, aimed at knocking Hu Qianzao out of the sky.
As Ye Xuan made his move, Hu Qianzao spurred her spiritual power again, making the Nine-Tails Manifestation even more solid. The nine tails behind it coalesced into a sphere, blooming like a rare and beautiful flower in the world, and then, from within the tails, a pink light orb formed, heading towards Ye Xuan’s giant sword.
At this moment, the intensity of the battle had exceeded everyone’s imagination.
“Sss–!!!”
Watching the battle scene, the people of Jade Fox Palace couldn’t help but gasp in shock.
Hulan exclaimed in amazement:
“I didn’t expect that, after being trapped by Ultimate Desire Devouring Gu for so many years, Ye Xuan’s cultivation could be so terrifying, still able to contend with the palace master at this time.”
“No.”
Ren Baii shook his head, saying, “It’s not contending, it’s suppressing; look closely, Ye Xuan still has spare strength–!”
As his words fell, everyone focused intently on the scene, then gasped in shock. Ye Xuan leaped high, attacking from below with the giant sword formed by thousands of energy swords.
Hu Qianzao, with the giant celestial fox shape behind her, swayed its nine tails, pressing down towards Ye Xuan from above.
Hum, hum–!!!
The immense forces of both sides clashed in the sky, creating a dazzling rainbow of light.
“Ah–!!!”
Hu Qianzao, pushing her spiritual power to the limit, involuntarily spilled blood from her mouth, “Ye Xuan, I didn’t expect you to have such cultivation, but today, even if it costs me my life, I must kill you–!!!” As she spoke, her body began to emit a glow even more dazzling than before.
She was burning her spirit essence–!!!
“Bad–!!!” Watching the sky, Ye Xuan was shocked, “She’s burning her spirit essence… If we keep fighting, she will die–!”
With that thought, Ye Xuan immediately withdrew his condensed sword energy. The next moment, the sky burst into a brilliant pink light, shattering Ye Xuan’s giant sword.
Boom–!!!
Trapped by Hu Qianzao’s array, Ye Xuan was pressed to the ground, causing the area for dozens of miles around to crack and split. When the chaotic spiritual light dissipated, the place where Ye Xuan was had become a vast crater, surrounded by desert sands.
And Ye Xuan himself was in an utterly disheveled state, barely able to stand up. Looking at Hu Qianzao falling from the sky, he slightly smiled, “That’s good… she’s alright…” He said weakly.
“Phew–!!!”
Hu Qianzao landed on the ground, involuntarily spitting out a mouthful of blood. Seeing the destruction her attack had caused to the surroundings, she felt a flicker of fear. If Ye Xuan had persisted a little longer, her power would have spilled out even more, potentially leaving hundreds to thousands of miles will lost its vitality.
The energy was too dispersed, but for those creatures without the power to protect themselves, it was practically a natural disaster. In her recent fight with Ye Xuan, who knows how many lives were lost.
She didn’t hear what Ye Xuan said, only glaring fiercely at him, “Ye Xuan, you truly are a great sinner, because of you, Jade Fox Palace is bathed in blood, countless have died, today, I will take you back to Jade Fox Palace to be punished–!”
Saying this, she didn’t hesitate, activated the spell, and restrained Ye Xuan, “I know, your best skill is sweet-talking to deceive people, this time, I won’t give you any more chances–!!!” As she spoke, Hu Qianzao waved her hand, and a force muzzled Ye Xuan, preventing him from speaking.
Falling into Hu Qianzao’s hands, Ye Xuan already knew what his fate would be…
But he hadn’t expected that Hu Qianzao would directly restrain his speech, rendering him unable to talk.
At this moment, his heart couldn’t help but feel desolate. In his ears, he seemed to hear the voice of Ultimate Desire Devouring Gu, “No matter how well you treat her, she will not treat you any better. She doesn’t deserve your love–! Are you really sure it’s worth it to be so devoted to her?”
“Is it worth it?” Looking at the stunning figure before him, she was looking at him with eyes full of hatred, as if wishing to kill him and be done with it, deeply piercing his own eyes.
“Is it worth it?” Ye Xuan couldn’t speak, but in his heart, he sadly smiled; perhaps it’s worth it, perhaps it’s not, but when it comes to feelings, what really is ‘worth it’?
When I fell in love with her, I was already willing to give everything for her. Whether it’s this lifetime or the next, I will fall in love with her; it’s inevitable. I also wish I didn’t love her so much, but I can’t help it, I just can’t–!!!
Watching the scene, Ye Xuan gave up resisting because of his concern for Hu Qianzao and fell into her hands, even his ability to speak was restrained.
——–
People of Jade Fox Palace couldn’t help feeling immense sorrow.
This was yet another silent suffering.
Ye Xuan knew what his fate would be, but at the moment he faced off with Hu Qianzao, he still didn’t hesitate to withdraw his attack. At this moment, Ye Xuan in the scene lay powerlessly on the ground, his figure utterly disheveled, his eyes filled with desolation, but only when looking at Hu Qianzao were his eyes warm.
Even though his eyes only saw Hu Qianzao looking at him with hatred, causing his heart immense pain, yet, his heart was still at ease for her safety. In this instant, it seemed like endless mournful winds howled in the background, and the area around them was barren.
“I can’t do it,” Ye Xuan said he couldn’t. Asking him not to love her, he couldn’t do it.
But what about her?!!
She stood before Ye Xuan, looking at him coldly, “Ye Xuan, you have committed too many evils in this life, even letting you die is too lenient for you. I will take you back to Jade Fox Palace, where you will atone for your sins to the disciples you’ve harmed, only your blood can appease their lost souls–!!!” Hu Qianzao said this while looking at Ye Xuan.
——–
Outside the scene, everyone felt a pang in their hearts.
Using Ye Xuan’s blood to appease the souls of Jade Fox Palace?
What fault does Ye Xuan bear–!!!
