At the eting hall of Xuan Ji Sub-League.
The atmosphere within the hall was opressive, as if the very air was going to ignite at any given mont. Xuan Ji was seated on her throne looking at the people below her with an unchanging expression.
“Xuan Ji, what will it take for you to release Ye Mo? He is my disciple. Just tell what your conditions are,” Elder Feng said anxiously.
Xuan Ji waved her hand and interrupted Elder Feng. “Don’t bother. Ye Mo killed Xue Xiu, a mber of the Xuan Ji Sub-League, and then killed Song Yang. His cris cannot be pardoned. Don’t bother pleading for him.”
“Master Xuan Ji, please have rcy on Brother Ye Mo. Chuchu will kowtow for you.” Yun Chuchu knelt down and kowtowed at Xuan Ji repeatedly. Tears rolled down from her eyes like raindrops, pitter-pattering on the ground below.
The mont Chuchu ended her cultivation, she heard that Ye Mo was being locked into the Five Punishnts Tower by Xuan Ji. The news hit her like a thunderbolt and drained all of her energy.
Xuan Ji’s heart turned gentle when she saw Chuchu grieving. “Chuchu, get up. There is no point begging . I have already commanded it. Ye Mo is probably suffering the trials and tribulations of the Five Punishnts Tower right this mont.” Still, she maintained the cold expression on her face. Nobody could hope to change her mind.
Bang!
When Yun Chuchu heard this, she got so agitated, she blacked out. Yun Tianxie quickly went to pick up Yun Chuchu and said, “Xuan Ji, you are being too ruthless. For a person like Ye Changsheng who has to rely on outside forces to advance in cultivation, you insist on killing a genius like Ye Mo. Fine,” Yun Tianxie said before leaving with Yun Chuchu in his arms.
“Old Feng, let’s leave. It’s pointless to stay here. Let’s wait outside the tower. Perhaps Ye Mo will able to escape the Five Punishnts Tower,” Yao Qingyun said and turned to leave.
“If sothing happens to Ye Mo, I will not let this slide,” Elder Feng warned and then left.
After all four of them left, Xuan Ji sank into a deep contemplation.
“Ye Mo, you are indeed a rare talent. If it wasn’t for the Motionless Hell King Seal you refined, it would have been very hard for to comprehend the real aning of being in the Transcendence Realm. Unfortunately, you are the person Changsheng wants dead. Changsheng is the only child of Brother Qing. I will not side with you against Changsheng. If you have to bla soone, you can only bla your birth,” Xuan Ji muttered to herself. Suddenly, she stood up and frowned before she said, “Who is it that is sneaking around? Show yourself!”
“My dearest sister, you are as sensitive as ever. I suppose you are on the verge of breaking through into the Transcendence Realm, right?”
A woman in black robes slowly walked in from the door. Her face was exactly the sa as Xuan Ji, and a smile hung on the face.
“It’s you? What are you doing here?” Xuan Ji sat down and crossed her legs. She then spoke again, hostility clear in her voice, “What are you doing here instead of staying at the Luosha Prison?”
“My dearest sister, why are you looking at with such hostility? Are you still holding onto the incidents of the past?” said Xuan Qiu, the Lord of Luosha, as she sat down with a smile.
“Hmph. If it weren’t for you ambushing Brother Qing, how would he had encountered Zining, the mysterious woman? And if it weren’t for that, everything that happened next wouldn’t have happened. Brother Qing wouldn’t have died either. You are the culprit for everything. I will never forgive you. Leave now. Otherwise, don’t bla for showing no rcy,” Xuan Ji spoke, two golden phoenixes appearing in her golden pupils.
Instantly, Xuan Qiu felt as if her surroundings had been frozen.
“How powerful.” Xuan Qiu started rotating the energy within her to resist Xuan Ji’s suppression.
Bang!
The chair under Xuan Qiu crumbled as she stood up. “Xuan Ji, it has been so many years. Why are you still holding into the past? Do you really believe that Brother Qing wouldn’t have fallen in love with that Zining if I hadn’t attacked him? You are too naive. Our only defeat is the fact that Brother Qing had slept with her first.”
When she saw that Xuan Ji was not saying anything, Xuan Qiu continued, “Brother Qing was a person that cared for the people around him deeply. Everything he did for you was a source of envy, even for . He had voluntarily entered the Luosha Prison to rescue you. If anyone told that Brother Qing had no feelings towards you, I would never believe it.”
We had both fallen in love with him at the sa ti, but the one he loved most was you. Is that not true? Perhaps if Brother Qing had accepted all three of us, things would have ended differently,” Xuan Qiu said.
“What’s the point of telling all this now? When I wanted to invite Brother Qing here so I could take care of him and his son, why had you stopped ? I didn’t even get the chance to see him one final ti before he died. Do you have any idea how sad I was?” Xuan Ji howled, tears streaming down her face.
“You? Sad? Do you know how sad Brother Qing was? I stopped you from seeing him to preserve the last bit of dignity he had. He was the one hit the hardest by what had happened compared to the three of us. He was a person with a cultivation above all others in Tianwu Kingdom. In a single night, he lost everything, and his dreams were shattered. Allowing him to stay in Listone City was the best decision. His son has also grown up to beco such an outstanding individual. Am I wrong?” Xuan Qiu said.
“Looks like you know him better than .” Xuan Ji laughed bitterly.
“Sister, let bygones be bygones. By the way, where is Ye Mo?” Xuan Qiu said and looked around. When Ye Mo snuck into the Luosha Prison, he had managed to keep his identity hidden. He should have returned at Qingyun League by now.
“Ye Mo? You are here to plea on Ye Mo’s behalf as well? You know him? Had he truly snuck into Luosha Prison?” Xuan Ji was slightly stunned when she heard Xuan Qian’s question. If even her sister was pleading on Ye Mo’s behalf, Ye Mo’s networking skills were truly quite good.
“Pleading? What am I pleading for? Had sothing happened to Ye Mo?” Xuan Qiu was completely in the dark.
“He severed Changsheng’s arm and had even killed mbers of the Qingyun League. I locked him into the Five Punishnts Tower as his punishnt,” Xuan Ji said indifferently.
“Changsheng? Who is Changsheng?” Xuan Qiu was completely confused.
“What? Don’t you know that Changsheng is Brother Qing’s son?” Xuan Ji asked with a frown.
“Ye Changsheng is Brother Qing’s son? You have gotten it wrong. Ye Mo is the actual son of Brother Qing. The na Ye Mo was given by . When Ye Mo was a newborn, Brother Qing entrusted him to . I gave him this na in hopes that he would never forget his parents,” Xuan Qiu explained.
“What did you say?” Xuan Ji shuddered. The air around her started twisting as her heart throbbed madly. Her face was a mask of incredulity. “You are saying Ye Mo is Brother Qing’s son?”
“Yes. There’s no mistaking that. Furthermore, I saw him once at Luosha Prison. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have allowed him to escape. Have you not noticed that Ye Mo resembled Zining?” Xuan Qiu said with a nod.
“Damn it!” Xuan Ji yelled in anger. Everything in the hall shattered while the walls cracked.
Then, she streaked out of the hall, turning into a gold afterimage.
“Mo’er, if anything happens to you, I will never be able to forgive myself!”
