At this moment, Yu Tieshan, under the control of Hu Wanquan, was already furious to the point of spitting blood.
However, he dared not curse Hu Wanquan. He even avoided meeting his gaze with angry eyes, fearing that it would provoke him and lead to harm upon his daughter.
“Junior Brother, how can you endure such humiliation?!” Seeing Yu Tieshan actually refraining from cursing, Hu Wanquan spoke with pride: “It’s no wonder you could bear not seeking revenge for so many years.”
“You’re truly commendable. But since you’re so tolerant, I won’t play with you anymore. Rest assured, after your death, I’ll treat your daughter well—!”
“Senior Brother... I know you won’t spare me today...” Yu Tieshan sighed helplessly, dropping his anger and said to Hu Wanquan: “I only ask you... not to harm Ye Xuan. He’s innocent and unaware of the truth.”
“Junior Brother, after all these years, how do you still not understand me? Am I the kind of person who would involve the innocent?”
Hu Wanquan laughed: “Haha, yes, I am.”
“Pfft—!!!” Hearing Hu Wanquan’s words, some people almost thought he wasn’t like that, only to be dumbfounded by his shameless admission, frustrating them to the point of mental collapse.
Hu Wanquan continued: “I didn’t know you had already seen through my plans and harbored revenge against me for years. I sought your life simply because I fancied Ling’er.”
“How could you think I would spare Ye Xuan? You underestimate me by pleading for him—! I have a poem I often recite to myself, let me share it with you, Junior Brother:”
“‘Deceiving the master, betraying the ancestors without loyalty or righteousness, Engaging in adultery and plunder, that’s my way, Abandoning the right path for evil, committing sins with glee, Slaying the good and punishing the virtuous without mercy.’“
Hearing this, Yu Tieshan looked at Hu Wanquan in shock. At this moment, he seemed to truly understand what kind of villain he was dealing with.
His earlier thoughts of pleading for mercy were ridiculously naive—!!!
There are people who commit evil for gain, but some do evil even without benefit. They might simply enjoy being evil, and his Junior Brother Hu Wanquan was just such a person.
Hearing Hu Wanquan’s words, even the cultivators of the Jade Fox Palace felt a chill in their hearts. That there are such people in the world who take pleasure in doing evil.
No wonder the evil in the world is endless. Some people are still struggling for their basic needs, while others take delight in doing evil. The world they, the righteous cultivators, protect is definitely not one with such people.
If they encounter such people, they would never let them go—!!! But...
“Such a person was actually the biological father of the Palace Master in her previous life?”
For a moment, everyone turned their gaze towards Hu Qianzao.
Hu Qianzao frowned and said to them: “Why are you all looking at me? What does my previous life have to do with me? Besides, if my father in my previous life was evil, I definitely couldn’t be a bad person.”
“Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to become the master of the Jade Fox Palace in this life. It must be because I cultivated good karma in my previous life that I have today’s good fortune.”
Hearing Hu Qianzao’s words, the disciples of the Jade Fox Palace naturally hurriedly laughed along. They didn’t think their palace master would be a bad person either...
“Speaking of which, why hasn’t Ye Xuan gone to save him yet? He couldn’t have been scared stiff by Hu Wanquan, right?” At this time, a fox-man spoke.
“Doesn’t that go without saying? At this point, even if he goes out, it’s useless.” A dog-man spoke: “I think it’s better to live in cowardice, waiting for an opportunity to seek revenge in the future.”
For a moment, people started discussing again.
In the scene. Hu Wanquan, with a triumphant look, said to the shocked Yu Tieshan: “Junior Brother, you finally understand what kind of person I am... Now that you understand, I hope you won’t close your eyes when I kill you.” Saying this, he raised his sword, ready to pierce Yu Tieshan.
This time, he was determined to take Yu Tieshan’s life—!!
At this time, the onlookers of the Jade Fox Palace were in a panic, urging Ye Xuan to quickly save him.
Ye Xuan suddenly concentrated a stream of Qi at his fingertips, touching it to the tree he was hiding in.
Immediately, he leaped out and shouted at Hu Wanquan, “Stop–!!!”
Hu Wanquan, about to kill Yu Tieshan, turned around to see Ye Xuan, his face full of anger, and sneered, “So, I was actually followed by you, how interesting, my dear nephew–!!!”
“Ye Xuan?!!” Yu Tieshan, who was awaiting death, was shocked at Ye Xuan’s appearance: “Ye Xuan, run, you’re no match for him, don’t worry about me...” He shouted to Ye Xuan.
“Master, rest assured, I will take good care of my junior sister–!!!”
However, before Yu Tieshan could finish speaking, Ye Xuan had already turned and fled without a trace.
“Uh...” Watching Ye Xuan disappear in an instant, Yu Tieshan, who was trying to stop him, was left stunned.
“Uh...” The scene outside, watching Ye Xuan suddenly come out and then turn to flee, made the people of the Jade Fox Palace burst into laughter.
“Such a sudden appearance and escape, isn’t that just hilarious?”
“Exactly... If you’re not confident to come out, then don’t. Once out, don’t run away, just fight Hu Wanquan to the end, die with dignity.”
“He can’t really think he can run away like this, can he?”
“Too naive...”
“Hu Wanquan has time to kill Yu Tieshan and then chase after him.”
“I thought he would choose between being a coward or a fool, but it turns out he’s both.”
Either hide well or fight to the death. By jumping out and revealing himself, then running away without daring to fight, he only invites ridicule.
At that moment, they were genuinely amused by Ye Xuan.
However, just when everyone was laughing:
“Ha ha ha... Yu Tieshan, your disciple is really interesting, abandoning his master without hesitation. Don’t worry, I’ll catch him and let him die with you–!” Seeing Ye Xuan run away, Hu Wanquan laughed and leaped forward, chasing after Ye Xuan.
“He’s actually not killing Yu Tieshan first?”
“Just a matter of a sword strike...” The people of the Jade Fox Palace were speechless.
“But that’s right, with his speed, it would only take ten breaths of time to catch Ye Xuan, right?!”
Just then–!!! A loud ‘whoosh’ sound came from the tree Ye Xuan had marked with his qi. The next moment, a piece of the tree burst out, flying and bouncing off a distant stone wall, then back, striking Yu Tieshan’s acupoint.
“Uh...” Yu Tieshan grunted, feeling the qi on the tree piece had unlocked the acupoint sealed by Hu Wanquan. He immediately stood up and chased in the direction Ye Xuan had fled.
The sudden turn of events left all the cultivators of the Jade Fox Palace dumbfounded. “What’s happening?!!”
“Wait, I remember, didn’t Ye Xuan just hit the tree with his qi, could it be–!!!”
“Was it his residual force that caused this long-distance acupoint strike effect?”
“This... can a mortal really do this? It’s practically a magical technique–!!!”
“I get it, he intentionally drew Hu Wanquan away from Yu Tieshan, then left this precise and terrifying force, hoping to gamble on whether he could save his master–!!!” Someone analyzed.
“Ah, is this even possible?” Hearing this, the cultivators of the Jade Fox Palace were incredulous.
“This is no longer just a matter of martial arts, but requires an extremely terrifying intelligence to utilize such minor martial arts to achieve an effect akin to a magical technique.”
“Ye Xuan’s intelligence is terrifying–!!!” Saying this, some in the Jade Fox Palace looked at the fleeing Ye Xuan in the scene with a hint of admiration. Mortal wisdom is not inferior to that of immortals.
“Who just said Ye Xuan was both cowardly and stupid?!!” At that moment, Yu Ling’er couldn’t help but shout out loudly: “All of you, stand out–!!!”
“Ha ha ha, weren’t you guys talking happily just now? Come on, say it again for me, who is both stupid and cowardly?!!”
The Jade Fox Palace people were embarrassed again...
They were talking excitedly just now, and now they were slapped in the face again. Ye Xuan’s actions have opened a path in an unknown realm for them. Where is he cowardly and stupid? He is clearly wise and brave–!!!
If they were in Ye Xuan’s position, they definitely couldn’t do such a thing. No, even now, they might not be able to do it unless they use some spiritual magical techniques, like casting talismans to work for them.
To think they could do such a thing using only mortal means, they couldn’t even imagine. If Ye Xuan is called cowardly and stupid, what are they?
They actually had the audacity to mock Ye Xuan?!!
Slap slap–!!
The sound of being slapped in the face seemed to resound again in the Jade Fox Palace. Their faces were all swollen, how painful–!
