103: Chapter 103: Holding to Account 103: Chapter 103: Holding to Account The cave was silent.
Ye Haochuan, who had been practicing the “Eternal Regret Finger Technique” for so ti, suddenly stood up, his eyes bursting with eagerness.
“Endless Eternal Regret!”
Ye Haochuan’s fingers shot out like arrows, and True Qi hissed from the tip of his index finger, shattering a bell-shaped stalactite not far away.
Seeing this, Ye Haochuan’s heart rejoiced.
Such a distance, at least six ters, this was indeed a splendid technique for killing unseen!
“Overwhelming Eternal Regret!”
“Eternal Regret of Yellow Springs!”
Ye Haochuan then executed the other two moves of the technique, and stalactites in the cave continuously fell with clattering sounds.
After a long while, Ye Haochuan burst out laughing, “Fantastic, absolutely fantastic!
With the ‘Eternal Regret Finger Technique’ as my flashy weapon, I can secretly knock out those blind fools without anyone noticing.”
As he spoke, he again looked forward with anticipation, “According to the technique’s essentials, this ‘Eternal Regret Finger Technique’ requires intense hatred to fully unleash its power.
I wonder what it will be like then?”
Putting away the “Eternal Regret Finger Technique,” Ye Haochuan continued to study the “King Yama Sword Formation.”
As the na implied, the “King Yama Sword Formation” involved imbuing swords with spirits and setting them in a specific formation, capable of slicing through both the living and ghosts, exceedingly fierce.
Although he currently didn’t have any swords possessed by spirits, this hardly affected Ye Haochuan’s practice of the King Yama Sword Formation.
Generally speaking, the King Yama Sword Formation was versatile and extrely complicated, and incredibly powerful.
Anyone trapped in it would be lucky to escape with their skin intact.
Before long, several more hours had passed, and Ye Haochuan finally mastered the King Yama Sword Formation.
By then, he felt ravenous.
As he couldn’t go out for now, he took a Fasting Pill to curb his hunger.
The Fasting Pill truly was wonderful.
A single pill removed all sensations of hunger.
Entering the corridor, he used his Perspective Eyes to look towards the direction of the Sacrificial Altar and saw Immortal Aunt still healing in the altar’s pool.
Recalling Immortal Aunt’s towering rage from earlier, Ye Haochuan dared not disturb her and withdrew.
“Ah, how boring.
I wonder if this godforsaken place even has cell service.”
Pulling out his cellphone, Ye Haochuan checked and, surprisingly, there was signal.
He even had several missed calls from Xiao Haimie, Li Wenfeng, the four girls from the dormitory including Zhao Bingqian, as well as Doctor Kou and the nurse Han Xue’er.
Additionally, there was a call from an unknown number, which he guessed must be from Dragon Roar, so he didn’t mind it.
On a whim, he first called Xiao Haimie.
Soon, Xiao Haimie’s anxious voice ca through, “Haochuan, where are you?
I’ve been calling you so many tis, but you never answered.”
“I’m not at school right now.
I had to go out suddenly.”
“When will you be back?”
Ye Haochuan chuckled, “What, missing your husband already?”
“Go to hell!” Xiao Haimie spat, “I’ve been worried sick about you, and you’re still joking with .”
Ye Haochuan promptly apologized repeatedly, finally managing to cheer Xiao Haimie up.
The two of them then talked sweetly for an hour before hanging up.
However, before ending the call, Xiao Haimie specifically instructed him to hurry back to attend her grandfather’s seventieth birthday.
Ye Haochuan readily agreed.
Now that he and Xiao Haimie had confird their relationship, he naturally wanted to et her parents.
Afterward, Ye Haochuan called back Li Wenfeng, but to no avail as the other party never picked up.
He ended up talking to Zhao Bingqian over the phone, explaining that he couldn’t return to school for the ti being and told them not to worry.
Then, Ye Haochuan called Doctor Kou.
Soon, Doctor Kou’s voice answered, “Doctor Ye?”
“It’s .
You called .
What’s up?”
“Well, my grandfather was asking when you would be free to visit his Security Hall to exchange so dical experiences…”
“I’ll go there in a day or two.”
“Okay, I’ll ntion it to my grandfather.
But you must co, okay?”
“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely be there.”
After hanging up, Ye Haochuan was just about to call that little nurse, Han Xue’er, when unexpectedly, she called first.
“Hey, Xue’er, beauty, long ti no see!
Calling in such a hurry, did you miss ?
Hehe.”
Just as Ye Haochuan was flirting, a roar ca from the receiver, “What did you say?”
Ye Haochuan’s face instantly turned gloomy.
Damn, wasn’t this Xue’er’s phone?
Why did it sound like a tigress?
“Who is this?”
“I’m Xue’er’s stepmother.
Let tell you, kid, Xue’er already has a boyfriend.
From now on, stay away from her, or else I swear I’ll break your legs!”
With a bang, the phone call ended.
What?
Xue’er’s stepmother?
No way.
Xue’er is so sweet and lovely; how could she possibly have such a rude and overbearing stepmother?
Ye Haochuan shook his head, unable to understand it all even after thinking for a long ti.
However, the thought that the sweet girl Han Xue’er now had a boyfriend made him rather uncomfortable.
Damn it, had so swine scooped up the fine “cabbage” I had my eye on?
Just as he was stewing in his displeasure, footsteps approached from behind.
An angry voice sounded from behind: “Ye Haochuan!”
Ye Haochuan’s expression stiffened.
Even he, dull as he was, knew that Immortal Aunt was here to take him to task.
Turning around, Ye Haochuan greeted her with a smile, “Immortal Aunt, have you recovered from your injuries?”
“What?
You wish I hadn’t recovered?” Long Piaoying’s pretty face was frosty.
“No, of course not,” Ye Haochuan hastily waved his hands,
“I’m asking you, why did you do that just now?” Long Piaoying asked, biting her lower lip.
Ye Haochuan feigned confusion, “Do what?
Immortal Aunt, can you be more specific?
Hehe.”
Looking at his cheeky grin, Long Piaoying’s face filled with disgust, “If you slick talk again, do you believe I’ll slap you dead on the spot?”
Ye Haochuan started whining, “Immortal Aunt, when have I ever slick talked?
That’s a false accusation, a false accusation!”
“You…”
Faced with such a rogue, Long Piaoying felt a deep sense of powerlessness within.
After an internal struggle for a while, not knowing what she was thinking, Long Piaoying gave up bitterly, “You rascal, if you pull that stunt again with , you’ll see what I’ll do to you!…
Let’s go!”
Before Ye Haochuan could react, he was lifted from behind and then felt light as he was whisked away with Immortal Aunt out of the cave.
The consequences of angering Immortal Aunt were quite severe.
During the flight, Ye Haochuan felt discomfort several tis and tried to embrace her slender waist, but each ti, she glared fiercely at him with her eyes.
Ye Haochuan couldn’t express how repressed he felt; he was absolutely furious.
By then, it was already deep at night, and the moonlight, cool as water, bathed them in its pale light, as if draping them in a holy mantle.
“Now, I’ll let you down, and you make your own way back to Haishan.” Out of the blue, Long Piaoying huffed.
Ye Haochuan was taken aback, “You can’t be serious?
Immortal Aunt, are you ditching after crossing the river?”
