Chapter 107: This is the Malice of Human Hearts
Although she knows these matters have nothing to do with her current self and belong to her past life, Hu Qianzao still feels somewhat distressed. Her father from her past life was a great villain.
It’s one thing for him to be dead now as he deserved, but now his body has been seized by an even more evil person. What will become of her next? Even though it is about her past life, she still cares a little.
“Such methods of seizing bodies are rare even among the demonic cultivation practices,” said a female immortal from Jade Fox Palace, watching the scene unfold.
“I just hope that this kind of technique doesn’t spread anymore. Otherwise, it would be terrifying if one day, the person closest to you was suddenly taken over by someone else.”
“Yes!” Everyone nodded in agreement as they continued to watch the scene.
As for Ye Xuan, some people were already starting to feel sympathy for him. It’s truly pitiful; he barely saved his master, only to find out he is darker than his martial uncle. At least the martial uncle didn’t want his life! What will Ye Xuan do next?
———
“I never imagined that my master had always treated me this way…” At this moment, Ye Xuan was hiding behind a tree, quietly watching Yu Tieshan adapt to his new body.
He dared not act rashly because the techniques his master had used before had surpassed his understanding. Staying calm was the best choice now.
“The method of seizing bodies… If I’m not mistaken, it’s the technique now used by my master to occupy my martial uncle’s body. If he could use this evil technique again soon, then I would be finished.”
“What I need to do now is to immediately escape his sight and never appear before him again… But what about Ling’er? After all, she is the master’s daughter.”
Ye Xuan pondered silently: “My master has seized my martial uncle’s body too, but what about Hu Qian’er? She is still unaware and an innocent person. If I leave now and disregard everything, can I really live in peace?!”
“I have to take a chance.” With that thought, Ye Xuan firmed his resolve to return.
———
Hearing Ye Xuan’s thoughts, those present were somewhat surprised. Did Ye Xuan really care about Hu Qian’er? She was the daughter of Hu Wanquan, and she did those things to Ye Xuan later on.
Theoretically, Hu Qian’er was also an enemy of Ye Xuan. It seems that Ye Xuan is not a heartless person. Perhaps, they had misunderstood Ye Xuan before.
———
As Ye Xuan was determined to return, on the other side, Yu Tieshan had fully adapted to Hu Wanquan’s body.
He looked at his hands and muttered to himself, “This Blood Soul Seizing Technique can only be used once every fifty years… This body seems unable to last another fifty years, what should I do… Well, for now, I’ll enjoy the glory and riches of the world in place of my brother!”
Saying this, he leaped up and headed towards Jianghua City. In the blink of an eye, he was thousands of feet away.
Once Yu Tieshan, who had seized Hu Wanquan’s body, had left, everyone outside of the scene breathed a sigh of relief for Ye Xuan. His hiding place was a bit risky, and if Yu Tieshan had discovered him, he would likely have been doomed. Fortunately, Yu Tieshan hadn’t noticed Ye Xuan…
Yet Ye Xuan remained in his hiding place and did not come out. Someone commented, “Haha… It seems Ye Xuan was scared. He still doesn’t plan to come out.”
———
“It looks like he won’t come out until dawn.”
“He’s too cowardly, isn’t he? The man has gone so far away!”
People from the Jade Fox Palace said this, but then, a figure suddenly descended from the sky and landed where they had been before. Wasn’t it Yu Tieshan, or rather, the one who had seized Hu Wanquan?
He looked around with some confusion and said, “It seems that Ye Xuan didn’t hide in the most dangerous place, which is the safest. Since he has left, I won’t pursue him further, considering our master-disciple relationship.” After saying this, he turned and left.
———
“Uh…”
Watching Yu Tieshan disappear from the scene, the people of the Jade Fox Palace felt a bit embarrassed. Goodness, he actually came back?! If Ye Xuan hadn’t hidden so well, he might be dead by now!
Those who had previously mocked Ye Xuan for being cowardly now felt like slapping themselves. They had been slapped in the face so many times yet still dared to underestimate Ye Xuan; they really never learned.
But this time, Ye Xuan should come out, right?! With that thought, everyone’s eyes returned to the scene.
———
In the scene, however, Ye Xuan remained hidden, not planning to come out. He even held his breath, blending completely into the night’s shadows.
———
Seeing Ye Xuan’s caution, the people of the Jade Fox Palace couldn’t help but twitch. No way, he’s still hiding? Could Yu Tieshan possibly come back?!
———
At the next moment, a figure flashed past, appearing on another part of the mountain top, quietly looking down. Although he was very meticulous, he didn’t see any figure. This person was Yu Tieshan. Using Hu Wanquan’s body, his gaze was like lightning, sweeping through the forests several times before he sighed helplessly.
“It seems that Ye Xuan has really escaped… Since he didn’t hear what I just said and doesn’t know that I’ve seized his this body, I’ll let him go.” After saying this, Yu Tieshan’s figure flashed again, and he left.
———
“Uh…”
Only at this moment did the people of the Jade Fox Palace finally understand what it means to say that human hearts are sinister. Although they lived longer and had higher cultivation than Ye Xuan, if they had faced such a situation, they probably would have died several times over. Yet, Ye Xuan was still very much alive.
For a while, the disciples of the Jade Fox Palace felt as if they had learned quite a lot and grown quite a bit.
