He still didn’t notice that there was something wrong with Xuan Bing’s attitude. He didn’t know there was going to be a big crisis on him soon. He actually was still talking about the girls, trying to butter her up a little. He thought he was explaining how important he was to Misty Cloud Palace that he was not just somebody she could casually kill...
“Heh, heh... Don’t flatter me... Hmm. The two ladies, one is Bing Xinyue, Lady Bing, the other is Wenren Chuchu, Lady Wenren.” Ye Xiao smiled and said, “Oh right! Lady Wenren is Lady Bing’s disciple. Heh, heh.”
Xuan Bing’s eyes lit up. She humphed and said, “That’s true. They are in my sect. What?”
Ye Xiao blandly smiled—his expression showed like he had a great contribution but he didn’t want to show off. He casually said, “I met them in the world where I come from. I helped them with some problems, so that we become friends...”
Xuan Bing gritted her teeth and said, “Oh? Problems? What kind of problems?”
Ye Xiao casually said, “No big deal. It’s just... There is a small problem with your martial art while you are upgrading. When you try to upgrade Ling Xiao Ice Art, it always gives a reverse impact on you and leaves a threat in your bodies...”
He blandly continued, “I may be weak, but I happen to know a way to solve the problem. That’s what I did to help the two ladies back then... It’s not a big deal though. Heh, heh. Not worth mentioning.”
After all the foreshadowing, he finally said something he wanted to tell her the most. ‘First of all, I have helped your disciples. You are their Great Elder in the sect, so you can’t requite kindness with enmity to kill me. Second, I know a way to solve the problem in your martial art. You need me on solving this problem!’
‘Now... I guess this can be an easier trip for me to travel with you, right?’
‘No matter how cruel you are, you can’t bite the hand that feeds you, can you?’
That was what Ye Xiao had in mind.
He finally finished talking and felt proud of himself as he thought he was safe because of his wisdom. Suddenly, he felt suppressed by a huge mass of extremely cold qi that could fill the entire world. Suddenly, he couldn’t say a word. All he could feel was coldness. He felt cold in every piece of the skin, as if even his soul was frozen.
He was confused by the sudden change. Xuan Bing was utterly furious. The fire of anger was rolling in her heart.
“Ling Xiao Ice Art? Reverse impact? Help?” she slowly said the words one by one.
Even though her eyes were covered by the rim of her hat, Ye Xiao could feel the sharpness of her eyes.
[Holy heavens! What is going on? What I said is supposed to be life-saving for me! How come it seems to be a death sentence now?]
[This is weird! This is unreasonable!]
“Whirr...” Xuan Bing was gasping heavily. Apparently, she was furious. She couldn’t endure the flame of anger inside her anymore.
[Bastard!]
She surely knew about the reverse impact of their martial art.
In fact, she suffered the most severe impact from the martial art!
She nearly died because of it once.
Who saved her?
Ye Xiao!
The guy who was right in front of her!
What mattered the most for her was in what way he solved the problem!
Every time when she thought of how he did it, she blushed like burning.
How did he do it?
After Xuan Bing had that tough fight against Xue Danru and won, she was severely injured and she lost her memory. After that, she became Bing’er, Ye Xiao’s maid, who warmed his bed everyday... Ye Xiao did something for her and she was cured before she realized it.
She was even greatly improved and became the second most powerful figure in Qing-Yun Realm...
Hmm. That was not the point. The point was how he cured her!
And he must have done the same thing to Bing Xinyue and Wenren Chuchu!
She knew she didn’t need to ask more!
He must have done it the same way...
Xuan Bing felt utterly upset, looking at Ye Xiao, who was talking so casually like he didn’t want anything in return after helping others. In fact, she could see that he was so proud and pleased.
She was shaking.
[Doesn’t it mean that several of our people were... taken advantaged of by you?]
[And what? You want me to feel grateful?]
Bing Xinyue’s master was one generation younger than Xuan Bing... Xuan Bing was the senior master...
Wenren Chuchu was Bing Xinyue’s disciple.
“I see. If that’s the truth, I guess our sect, including me, have to be grateful for what you did?” Xuan Bing gritted her teeth.
Ye Xiao didn’t know that he had aroused the most powerful negative energy in the world!
That was the jealousy of women.
He still casually smiled and said, “It isn’t worth mentioning. Not a big deal... Elder... Miss Xuan, you are welcome. We are friends.”
[You are welcome?]
[Friends?]
[I am not your friend!]
Xuan Bing was so angry. She nearly passed out.
She kept her hands inside her sleeves trying not to shake. She nearly couldn’t help to punch him hard. [You... We... You caused fornication among our sect now... And you... You actually act like it’s nothing serious?]
[Who is your friend? Wenren Chuchu? Bing Xinyue? Or Binger? Or... Me?]
[This is... nonsense!]
“Friends? Oh. Our third generation disciple, Bing Xinyue, must be quite close to you, Master Ye,” Xuan Bing spoke with anger.
Ye Xiao waved his hand and continued to talk humbly, “No. She is a nice person who is beautiful, elegant, and smart. I will never put myself any closer to her. I did help her, but she also helped me. I am not great. We know each other.”
Xuan Bing’s heart shook!
[What? What do you mean you know each other? What do you want? Are you going to deny that there is something between you two?]
[You know each other, huh? What is it? Are you going to just walk away after all you have done to her? You did it! You took the advantage of her! And you want to walk away like this?]
[No way!]
