Chapter 148: Can You Be Any More Despicable?
When the Jade Fox Palace first heard from their leader, Hu Qianzao, about what Ye Xuan had done, many found it hard to believe.
Or perhaps, they held a glimmer of hope, thinking there might be some misunderstanding. However, at this moment, seeing the evil demeanor of Ye Xuan in the visuals, and witnessing the heavy casualties within the Jade Fox Palace, regardless of age…
Even several ten-year-old fox-girls were bloodied and lying on the ground. Some were already dead, while others were still screaming, their last breaths being drawn out by the black-robed men brought by Ye Xuan.
How could mere cruelty describe this scene?!
At this moment, even the most naïve or emotional persons were filled with rage, glaring fiercely at Ye Xuan.
“Ye Xuan, you truly deserve to die—!!!”
“Today, you won’t escape the Jade Fox Palace—!!!”
“I’ll skin you alive—!!!”
The disciples of the Jade Fox Palace were gnashing their teeth in anger. If it weren’t for the fact that Ye Xuan was already trapped by the grand formation of the Jade Fox Palace, they would have likely torn him to pieces in their fury.
Those who had previously sympathized with Ye Xuan now looked at him with flames of anger in their eyes.
At this moment, who cared about misunderstandings? To hell with misunderstandings, now they just wanted Ye Xuan dead.
Only that could quench their rage, only that could slightly mask their inner fear.
Yes, fear.
The Jade Fox Palace had been peaceful for too long, having not experienced the trials of blood and fire for ages. To the people of the Jade Fox Palace, Ye Xuan was now enough to be regarded with fear.
Because of this fear, their anger towards Ye Xuan for what was happening in the visuals intensified. Everything in the visuals was caused by Ye Xuan.
And more so, it was about to happen soon.
That is, the current Ye Xuan was very likely already planning his malevolent schemes. Attacking their leader, Hu Qianzao, was just an entry point.
If so, then Ye Xuan absolutely could not be let off—!!!
Seeing everyone’s reaction around her, Hu Qianzao couldn’t help but show a trace of guilt.
Just now, she had actually thought about letting Ye Xuan go because of what she had seen of her past life, Hu Qian’er, and because she owed Ye Xuan from that life.
Thinking it over, she realized she had indeed been too emotional. If Ye Xuan really was no longer the kind-hearted person he had been, but had turned evil due to the experiences of his rebirth…
Then letting him go could potentially lead to the events in the visuals happening again at the Jade Fox Palace.
This was something she had already experienced in her memory…
She had already suffered for a lifetime because of it, and now she was being too emotional again, which was truly unfair to the disciples of the Jade Fox Palace.
Thinking this, her gaze also turned to Ye Xuan:
“Ye Xuan, our personal grievances may be settled, but your issues with the Jade Fox Palace are not… So, I can’t let you go—!”
Hearing this, Ye Xuan did not say much. He just quietly watched the scenes in the visuals.
Seeing that Ye Xuan showed no signs of panic or anger, Hu Qianzao felt somewhat annoyed. Ye Xuan’s reaction almost made it seem like he was innocent and she owed him a lot.
But in her past life, he had humiliated her in every way, and the debt she owed him had already been paid.
Moreover, Ye Xuan had led those evil cultivators into the Jade Fox Palace, causing a massacre, staining thousands of flowers with blood.
These were things that were indeed going to happen soon. So, regardless of any misunderstandings or the personal grievances between her and Ye Xuan, she shouldn’t let her emotions get the better of her and easily let Ye Xuan off.
Hmph, she’d better not find out that he had truly fallen into evil. Thinking this, her gaze returned to the visuals.
The day Ye Xuan led the evil cultivators into the Jade Fox Palace was the most desperate day of her life.
As for Hu Qian’er’s matters, for her now, they were just an illusion, and she felt no connection to them at all! At most, it helped her understand everything that had happened in the past.
Fortunately, the Jade Fox Palace had not been destroyed.
———
“Hu Qianzao, I really like the way you’re looking at me now.” Ye Xuan slowly approached Hu Qianzao, facing her hateful gaze with a slight lift of his lips, a hint of malice on his face.
“When I pursued you fervently before, if you had looked at me with these eyes earlier, I would have liked it even more.” He raised his hand, and a murderous intent was already apparent in his eyes.
“However, next, you will have to join those two beauties in waiting for me in the underworld. Remember my face, and don’t forget to seek revenge on me, haha—!!!”
As he spoke, Ye Xuan conjured a pitch-black orb of light in his hand, emitting the most evil aura in this world.
Evil Qi—!!!
Immediately after, Ye Xuan waved his hand, and the orb of evil energy rushed towards Hu Qianzao. With Hu Qianzao’s cultivation level, facing this attack from the orb, her death was certain.
However, at this moment, the power of the curse on Hu Qianzao was hard to dispel, leaving her utterly without the strength to resist.
At this time, all Hu Qianzao could do was wait for death to come.
———
At this moment, the disciples of the Jade Fox Palace watching the scene couldn’t help but have their hearts in their throats. Could it be that their leader would die here?
But, didn’t the leader say she had taken her revenge on Ye Xuan?!!
———
Clang—!!!
Just then, a figure appeared in front of Hu Qianzao, a long sword in hand, fiercely cleaving the purple-black orb of evil energy into two halves…
Following that, the evil energy exploded, revealing the true identity of the person with the sword. It was one of the immortals of the Jade Fox Palace, Ren Bai.
He stood quietly in front of Hu Qianzao, blocking the incoming fatal blow for her, his gaze sweeping the surroundings indifferently, seeming unfazed but with a barely concealed murderous intent in his eyes.
Beside Ren Bai, a woman in a blue dress also slowly emerged. It was another immortal of the Jade Fox Palace, Hu Lan.
Seeing Ye Xuan, Hu Lan’s expression grew even more furious, and she couldn’t help but want to rush at Ye Xuan.
But, Ren Bai placed his long sword in front of her, signaling her to stay calm. Both of their gazes turned towards the sky, where several powerful black-robed men were eyeing them menacingly.
Then, Ren Bai walked towards Ye Xuan, “Yo…”
“it’s truly regrettable.” Ye Xuan sighed with a hint of regret for not having killed Hu Qianzao with one blow, and then, looking at Ren Bai, his expression turned sinister, “Let’s have you keep me company for a bit—!!!”
While talking, Ye Xuan’s figure flashed, disappearing from in front of Ren Bai.
With the sound of clashing metal, Ye Xuan’s figure materialized behind Ren Bai, his hands gathering evil Qi, attacking Ren Bai.
Clang—!
Ren Bai’s long sword swung backward, clashing with Ye Xuan’s black energy. Ye Xuan’s figure flashed countless times, each movement like a fleeting shadow, clashing with Ren Bai’s long sword.
The sinister black energy had the power to destroy mountains, but Ren Bai’s long sword was equally formidable.
After dozens of exchanges, Ye Xuan, relying on his mysterious movements, remained unharmed but was falling into a disadvantage.
He suddenly retreated, dodging Ren Bai’s killing move, “Hehe, I’ve had enough fun, continuing might actually become dangerous.”
Saying this, he spoke to the sky, “Spread out, let’s make this a slaughter—!”
“Yes—!!!”
Hearing this, the numerous black-robed cultivators in the sky prepared to scatter. If these powerful black-robed evil cultivators were to disperse, the Jade Fox Palace would surely suffer even heavier casualties.
At this moment, Ren Bai could no longer pursue Ye Xuan, his figure soaring up, chasing after those evil cultivators in the sky.
“Hehe, thinking of chasing them? Did you ask me?!!” Ye Xuan’s figure shifted, instantly unleashing dozens of attacks towards Ren Bai’s back.
———
“Despicable—!!!”
Seeing this situation, the people of the Jade Fox Palace couldn’t help but curse out loud.
Immediately, they all cast disdainful glances towards Ye Xuan.
