Apparently, Xuan Bing didn’t get offended by Ye Xiao’s ridicule. Instead, she was actually mad at the lady who spoke up for her, even though the lady didn’t mean to tease her at all!
Ye Xiao laughed out loud and pinched Xuan Bing’s nose. He said, “You are such a cute little girl. I didn’t know that you were that well informed. Now I do. Listen to you, what a talker. You are just like the clever girl they say…”
Xuan Bing and Jun Yinglian were both speechless.
[Cute little girl!]
[Cute little girl!]
[Clever girl!]
[Clever girl!]
Jun Yinglian was totally shaken up.
Xuan Bing was also shocked!
[That is Xuan Bing… She is not a cute little girl or a clever girl… Come on!]
[Perhaps she is not that cunning or astute, then she is at least smart! Don’t you think?]
Jun Yinglian was totally speechless now.
She looked at Ye Xiao awkwardly and thought, [I wonder when this guy will find out that his cute little concubine… is actually so not that simple! Not that naive!]
However, as the two ladies saw Ye Xiao feel relieved a lot, they felt eased and satisfied for the accomplishment.
At the very least, for the next few days, the oppression that had filled the atmosphere was totally gone.
All the cultivators, especially those who were superior, would be held back by the troubles in their minds. Even though the pitfalls didn’t take effects, they were hidden deep inside. It was better to get rid of it as soon as possible!
Ye Xiao looked at Bing’er and Jun Yinglian cheering, so he reminded himself about it too.
No matter how uncomfortable he felt, it was unnecessary to make his women suffer with him.
What else could he do?
It was enough to have the difficult feeling himself. Why would he make others suffer with him? It wouldn’t ease the pain in him, but only make his women unhappy.
Therefore, Ye Xiao suppressed the pain and grief in his heart.
Did he drop it?
Perhaps he did.
Couldn’t he drop it?
Of course, he couldn’t yet.
Even though the pain to his feeling could be forgotten, the emotion that had engraved deeply inside his heart remained. Every time when he had a dream, it always made him sigh!
However, what Xuan Bing said did bring Ye Xiao hope.
Perhaps he was suffering the pain for happiness in the future.
If Ye Nantian and Yue Gongxue accepted him as their son, it would be unfair for them, also unfair for Ye Xiao’s real parents!
As he thought so, he felt a lot more relieved.
Now he was thinking about how Xuan Bing and Jun Yinglian tried to console him, and he felt ashamed.
He made a sigh and said, “The duty of men is to shield their women from storms and made the women happy. That is a man’s responsibility in a family. Yet… I, Ye Xiao, actually need my women to console me… That is ashamed.”
Xuan Bing and Jun Yinglian were both surprised. They looked at Ye Xiao with strange lights in their eyes.
Men had always been superior to women in the hundreds of thousands of years history of Qing-Yun Realm. For powerful men, women were their properties, playthings, tools to fill their appetite…
Nobody had ever said that men’s responsibility to the family was to please their women.
Now Ye Xiao said it, and it was obviously the truth in his heart.
The two ladies were moved. In the Qing-Yun Realm, not many men treated their women so well and saw the women’s happiness as their responsibility.
Ye Xiao was definitely a rare kind!
Jun Yinglian lightly leaned on his shoulder and said, “We would love to be your responsibility for the rest of our lives… However, you are our responsibility too… When you are upset, we will try everything we can to make you happy. Responsibility covers both sides. We are yours, and you are ours.”
Ye Xiao nodded and smiled. “You are mine. You said so. Yet you never let me touch you. I am very unhappy about that… Why don’t you just make me happy here and now.”
Jun Yinglian’s face turned red like a big piece of red cloth. She bashfully jumped away and said, “You are not going to touch me before we get married! If you are upset, and you want to be happy, you can go to Bing’er… She will let you do anything you want with her. Is it enough for you? You are asking for more, while you are having enough in your own bowl. That is wrong! You are evil!”
Xuan Bing was ready to see a playful scene to be delivered but turned out to be involved into the discussion. Her face turned red too, and she was so bashful that she even wanted to punch Jun Yinglian.
[You just keep teasing me when I am not able to say anything to argue!]
[He wants you, but you call that asking for more when having enough in the bowl. What? He wants is me, and that is fine?]
[You little sister, Lian Lian! This isn’t over!]
[Wait and see!]
The three of them were playing and laughing. Suddenly, an explosion cracked from far away.
Afterward, a series of thunderclaps sounded and sounded again, as if the sky suddenly raged up and struck down bolts of lightning!
Countless lightning was striking, while thunderclaps were cracking. The area within a thousand miles was covered by the thunderstorm!
It was a mess!
“Where is it? Some Dao Origin Stage cultivators are fighting!”
Ye Xiao’s face turned pale a little bit and he suddenly stood up.
The others had rushed out at the same time. If somebody were fighting, it must be the enemies attacking.
Ye Xiao was confused by what just had happened.
No matter how they tried to get the enemies to attack, nobody did anything. How come they suddenly attacked?
Was it an accident? Did the organization take revenge for the undercover cultivators they sent because they were all killed?
The three of them didn’t hesitate. They hurriedly rushed to where the sound came. While they were moving, Ye Xiao thought of something and said, “Where are Ning Biluo, Zhao Pingtian, and Liu Changjun?”
Ye Xiao’s spiritual mind was incredibly powerful. Within seconds, he had searched everywhere in the base, yet didn’t find any of the three men.
He came up with a thought, which made his face turn pale all of a sudden.
He knew that the three guys had gone for some fights!
The others couldn’t start the fight, but Zhao Pingtian and Ning Biluo absolutely can, because they were traitors to the organization!
They joined the organization in undercover and then sent to Ye Xiao as the organization’s undercover spies. In the end, because of the two of them, all the other undercover cultivators were all killed. They ruined the entire plan of the secret organization. As the two of them showed up and the enemies saw them, people in the organization would definitely rage up in fury. They surely could draw the enemies out for some fights.
Anyway, whether they could draw out the enemies was not the point at the moment. What mattered was if Ye Xiao went later, the three stupid men might get themselves killed and get their bodies smashed. The enemies would even swallow the three of them alive!
Ye Xiao made a long shout and said, “I am Ye Xiao! Who dares to answer me with a fight?”
The shout was shaking the sky, echoing far away.
His voice moved faster than himself. Apparently, he was trying to shock the enemies, and buy more time for the three men. Even one second was important enough to keep them alive!
Before the shout went out, Ye Xiao had become a stream of light dashing forward in a long echoing voice.
The others were all following him in full speed.
…
When Zhao Pingtian and Ning Biluo, the two kings in the area of assassination got enhanced, the only thing they felt was power that filled inside them. They felt like the entire Qing-Yun Realm was underneath their feet. Liu Changjun was different. He kept hiding in the darkness following them.
At that moment, the King of Assassins, the Killer King, and the Instant Killer had the same thought. [Show me some top-level Dao Origin Stage cultivators, so that I can enjoy some good fights.]
The three of them went for tens of miles waiting for some fights to happen, yet nothing happened. Zhao Pingtian lost patience first, so he spread out his spiritual mind while kept moving forward. His spiritual mind had been refined by Rou’er but was still marked with his characteristic. The organization could easily recognize him.
After he spread out the spiritual mind for a while, he felt an extremely powerful cultivator had locked on him.
The three of them didn’t try to get away. Instead, they happily rushed over to it.
[Good!]
[We are thirsty for this! Our hands got itchy already!]
The enemy realized that they were truly Zhao Pingtian and Ning Biluo, so they went mad immediately, just as Ye Xiao expected.
Without a word, they started to attack!
As the attacker approached, both the King of Assassins and the Killer King felt how difficult it was to truly master their newly enhanced power. Although they had reached the top level in the world, but using the power was definitely different from mastering the power!
People said when a kid played with a big hammer, the better martial art he used to play, the more possible he got hit in the head. They usually didn’t believe such a saying. How could the person who could play with the big hammer hit himself with the hammer?
However, now they knew it was true. When a cultivator attacked, as he thought about a move, his eyes saw it, and his hands did it at the same time. Zhao Pingtian and Ning Biluo were both greatly improved, which meant their minds were clearer, and their eyes were sharper, but their hands were not as fast as they needed. When they tried to use the power, they felt like scratching their itchy feet on the boots. They couldn’t do it at will!
When the true superior cultivators fought, a tiny gap between the two sides made a decision on life and death! Now they had a big gap ahead to reach the enemy’s league!
They were totally losing it as the fight began.
If not that their energy was pure and they had the great instant reaction of assassins, they should have been killed as the fight began.
However, now they were facing the difficult fight, things were getting more and more dangerous. They could die at any second!
As the fight went on, Ning Biluo and Zhao Pingtian were forced by the life-and-life threat, so their recognition of their power was boosted.
They became more and more skillful and experienced their own cultivation. At least they could do something now!
Liu Changjun kept harassing the enemy from the darkness. He jumped out all of a sudden and then disappeared after a second.
The three of them fought together against one enemy, but still slowly losing it.
However, although the three of them were at a disadvantage, they didn’t retreat a bit! It seemed they were fighting with their lives!
In the end, they even started to make plans to sacrifice with the enemy. With the sacrificial effort, they finally got an advantage in the battle. At least they weren’t obviously losing it now.
However, unluckily, more enemies had come.
It was pouring oil to the flame. The three of them were in great danger. They could die and get their souls perish at any second.
Even though they are in high spirit, they could not master their enhanced power. Even though they had the power, they could not use it properly. When they were fighting one man, it was still possible to fight. However, a lot more enemies had come and they had lost the advantage in number, so the situation was getting more and more dangerous. It was difficult to even make a move.
Lucky, when the three of them were going to be hopeless, Yue Shuang and Yue Han showed up from nowhere and killed their way into the battle!
The two ladies wanted to make up for the mistake they had made earlier, so they had been wandering around the area, trying to track the enemy. Maybe the three assassins didn’t mean to die that soon, the two ladies showed up in time.
The joint attacks of the two ladies were incredible. The power of them was equal to the power of six, even eight top-level Dao Origin Stage cultivators. As they joined the battle, it eased the three assassins from the oppressive situation, although it didn’t bring them victory yet.
The superior cultivators of the secret organization had come to join the battle from everywhere too.
The war just began like that. It was becoming a large-scale battle.
After Yue Shuang and Yue Han, after a while, the three great elders of the Cold Moon Palace appeared too. As the three masters joined the battle, it had become more intense. A few minutes later, two great elders from Sky Ice Palace arrived. The Moon Queen and the elders from Qiong-Hua Palace arrived too…
It all happened within the time of a half burning incense.
At the moment, it had become a battle of about thirty top-level Dao Origin Stage cultivators!
Thunderclaps cracking, bolts of lightning striking, it was like the day of the end.
The war was actually an unprecedented fight of effulgence!
The mountains were all cracked and the rocks were flying.
At this moment, Ye Xiao finally arrived with the echoing shout that shocked the sky. Before he showed up, his oppressive energy had reached the battle!
After that, a shining sword of light, surrounded by the extremely numerous starlight, had fallen to the area like a huge rainbow!
Ye Xiao was wearing his white clothes, swiftly moving to the battle and joined the fight without hesitation!
