Chapter 559 Ye Jing Vs Huo Ziqi
?
"Ye'er, do you know anything about your little sister's opponent?" Chen Qing asked Huo Ye as her eyes kept on observing the fight between Huo Ziqi and Ye Jing, but she frowned after seeing that one of her twin daughters kept getting pushed around by her attacks.
Huo Ye nodded to her. "Ye Jing hasn't been a cultivator for long, but her cultivation can improve rapidly thanks to Ling Yun, especially since she often dual cultivates with him. As for her Water techniques, I don't know much about it, for I've never seen her practice before."
"I still didn't expect the Lotus Sect to accept a non-virgin disciple, which would mean changing their rules that had existed since hundreds of years ago." Yan Zilan turned to Lian Bing before continuing, "Moreover, Sect Master Lian is willing to accept Ling Yun as her future husband, even though he already has so many wives."
Huo Ye only smiled at that, for she knew very well the power of Ling Yun's charm, and she almost fell under its influence, especially after she had spent quite a bit of time with him and his women. Fortunately, her mental strength is strong enough, so she can still withstand the effects.
Huo Yun suddenly said. "The Ling Clan is truly fortunate to have a male heir like him, and their clan will definitely become even stronger if Ling Yun becomes their patriarch in the future."
"You're wrong about that, Brother." Huo Ye said as she shook her head. "Although he is a descendant of the Ling Clan, Ling Yun has never wished to have any relationship with them."
"Why is that?" Huo Yun asked with a raised eyebrow.
However, Huo Jun immediately explained to him. "Ever since Ling Yun was born, he had never had any relation with the Ling Clan; even the late Ling Xiao never knew that he had a son before. He only discovered his existence after 19 years, so you shouldn't be surprised by that."
"I see." Huo Yun nodded in understanding, but he said to his father. "Although Ling Yun does not wish to have anything to do with the Ling Clan, it is still undeniable that he is their descendant, and his existence is still a boon to them."
They nodded in agreement with that, but Chen Qing then said. "However, I didn't expect that Yu'er would actually be one of Ling Yun's women, and she didn't tell me at all."
Huo Jun sighed after he heard his wife's words. "Didn't it happen because of Lan'er's stupid mistake? If she didn't force Yu'er to marry Guan Ye, then she wouldn't have fled the Ling Clan, and she wouldn't have fallen into her cousin's embrace. Also, she seems to hate us now, and she hasn't even greeted us since we came here yesterday."
"You're wrong, Father." Huo Ye said to his father. "Yu'er doesn't hate you guys; she only hates Big Sis Lan. However, her character changed since she beat her up due to her bloodline."
"Her bloodline?" Chen Qing, Huo Yun, and Yan Zilan looked at her confusedly.
Huo Jun immediately told them. "Ah! I just remembered about that! Old Ling told me that he saw the figure of the white fox when Yu'er beat Lan'er, and I think that fox has something to do with her bloodline."
"You are right, Father." Huo Ye replied with a nod. "Yu'er told me that she has a fox bloodline, but she didn't go into details, and her bloodline influenced her character to make her like that."
"Sigh, I'll talk to Yu'er later." Chen Qing said with a heavy sigh.
Yan Zilan said to her. "I'll come with you, Mother. I miss Yu'er too; it's been a while since I've spoken to her."
"All right." After that, their gazes returned to the arena, especially since the fight between Ye Jing and Huo Ziqi had become increasingly fierce.

Huo Ziqi looked frustrated to face Ye Jing since she could easily block her attacks. 'Tch! I didn't expect that the Lotus Sect had a disciple with the Water element, and she was so skilled at controlling it. I can't keep stalling any longer, or I'll run out of Qi before I can beat her, so I'll use it now.'
Ye Jing raised her eyebrows as Huo Ziqi flew into the air, and she could feel her Fire Qi becoming stronger.
"I don't really want to use this technique, but I must defeat you." After she said that, Huo Ziqi immediately closed her eyes and raised her hands up.
Soon, people gasped in shock as a fireball appeared above Huo Ziqi's hand, and its size grew as the seconds passed.
"Wow! I didn't expect Huo Ziqi to have such a technique!"
"Although Huo Ziqi's Fire element isn't as strong as the members of the Feng Clan, it is still much stronger than other cultivators."
"That's true; I can even feel the heat from here."
"Fairy Ye will suffer if she gets hit by Huo Ziqi's attack."
"Impossible! Fairy Ye has the Water element, so she will never lose to Huo Ziqi!"
After that, some parties shouted to support Huo Ziqi, but others continued to cheer for Ye Jing.
Unlike them, Ye Jing still looked very calm, and she didn't seem the least bit worried by Huo Ziqi's technique.
Ye Jing then took out the Sea God Trident and called out. "Zhi Hun!"
Zhi Hun instantly stepped out from within the trident and looked at the fireball above Huo Ziqi's hand. "Do you want me to stop her, Master?"
"Yes." Ye Jing nodded to her. "But I don't want you to hurt her."
Afterward, Zhi Yun immediately flew toward Huo Ziqi. Not only were the young cultivators shocked by her appearance, but even the senior cultivators, including the Ancestors, were shocked to see her.
Even so, Long Weishan and others immediately recognized her identity, and they were shocked to learn that Ye Jing's trident had a spirit.
Huo Ziqi immediately opened her eyes and was stunned to see Zhi Hun hovering before her. "Who are you? Why are you bothering me?"
Zhi Hun pointed at Ye Jing. "I am my Master's spirit weapon, so I will stop you."
"How-" Huo Ziqi hadn't had the chance to ask her again, but Zhi Hun had already flicked her tiny finger. Instantly, a small water ball shot towards her fireball, and their clash resulted in a small explosion, causing her to be sent flying backward. "Ahh!"
However, Ye Jing suddenly moved and caught her, and Huo Ziqi looked at her dumbfoundedly, for she did not expect Zhi Hun to destroy her technique. "You better give up; I know that your technique just now used up almost all of your Qi, so you won't be able to fight anymore."
After hearing that, Huo Ziqi sighed heavily, for she really couldn't fight anymore. "I didn't expect you to have such a powerful companion; she could even destroy my technique with just a small water ball."
Ye Jing chuckled upon hearing that. "Although Zhi Hun is tiny, she is powerful, and she is much stronger than the Ancestors."
"Huh?" Huo Ziqi stared at Ye Jing in disbelief. "How is that possible? I can't believe such a tiny girl is much stronger than the Ancestors."
"Who are you calling a tiny girl?" Zhi Hun asked as she placed her tiny hands on her waist. "Even though my body is this small, I'm much older than all of you."
"Eh?"
"Haha." Ye Jing laughed at Huo Ziqi's expression. "Zhi Hun is a spirit weapon, and she is indeed very old, so you shouldn't be confused if she can destroy your fireball easily."
"You and your husband are both absurd, you know?" Ye Jing only smiled upon hearing that, and Huo Ziqi said to Xuanyuan Xu'er. "Matriarch Xuanyuan, I can't fight anymore."
Xuanyuan Xue'er nodded in understanding. "The winner is Ye Jing!"
Huo Ziqi returned to her family after that, but she didn't feel disappointed by her defeat, especially after listening to Ye Jing's explanation earlier.

When Ye Jing arrived in front of them, Ling Yun immediately said to her. "I didn't expect you to use the Sea God Trident in this competition, Jing'er."
"If I used my other technique, I would hurt Huo Ziqi, so I had to ask Zhi Hun to destroy her fireball." Ye Jing explained to him as she smiled.
"That's true." Ling Yun then turned to the others. "Zhang Bing, I believe you can trounce your opponent. But you may have a tough match against Jiang Chen, Shu'er."
Zhang Bing nodded to him. "Yes, I am confident of defeating my opponent."
"You're right, Yun'er. I've watched all of Jiang Chen's fights, and his techniques are bizarre." Yi Shu replied with a soft sigh; she glanced at her opponent, who was already walking towards the arena. "However, I will not give up so easily, and I will fight him with all my might."
"En." Ling Yun nodded to her, and he then asked Feng Qiong. "Are you able to defeat Lei Qianyu?"
"I didn't know before fighting her." Feng Qong replied with a shake of her head. "I beat her once, but it was long ago, and I'm unsure of her current strength."
"I see." Ling Yun nodded in understanding and said to them again. "All right, you three just need to try your best."
"Yes." After that, the three of them immediately went to the arena and stood facing their respective opponents.
