Patricide?
Do not joke!
This difficulty is too high, better not to do it!
Of course, occasionally thinking about it is fine!
As for actually doing it, that is absolutely out of the question.
Qi Dianxia glanced at Ye Xuan and smiled, “Young Master Ye should be a filial son!”
Ye Xuan hesitated for a moment, then said, “I mainly cannot beat him…”
Qi Dianxia: “…”
Ye Xuan smiled, “Miss Qi, is your brother now in the Shen Ge Clan?”
Qi Dianxia nodded, “Yes!”
Ye Xuan hesitated again, then asked, “Forgive my bluntness, but was it that your brother fell in love with a woman from the Shen Ge Clan back then, yet your father and those powerhouses of your Ming Empire disagreed?”
Qi Dianxia looked at Ye Xuan, “How did you know?”
Ye Xuan smiled, “If they agreed, how could he have betrayed them?”
Qi Dianxia’s expression was complex, “Yes, they disagreed back then, so he did that thing!”
Ye Xuan asked further, “Were the two of them truly in love, or was this just a beauty trap from the Shen Ge Clan’s actual combat?”
Qi Dianxia smiled lightly, “That is unknown! However, I do hope they were truly in love!”
Ye Xuan looked at Qi Dianxia, “You do not seem to hate your brother!”
Qi Dianxia shook her head, “Hate has no meaning now!”
Ye Xuan nodded, “Indeed!”
Qi Dianxia smiled, then walked towards that dilapidated palace.
Ye Xuan and Lin Feng followed!
Under Qi Dianxia’s lead, the three arrived before a throne, which was only half remaining.
Qi Dianxia smiled, “Good!”
With that, she walked to the throne and silently recited an incantation. Soon, the throne suddenly trembled, and the next moment, a white light slowly floated out.
Qi Dianxia opened her palm, and the white light directly entered her palm. Then, she turned to Ye Xuan, opened her palm, and a storage ring slowly floated before Ye Xuan. Inside the ring, there was exactly one hundred million Shen Ge Crystals!
Ye Xuan smiled, “Thank you!”
Qi Dianxia smiled, “You deserve it!”
Ye Xuan nodded slightly, put away the storage ring, then said, “Miss Qi, farewell!”
With that, he turned and directly soared on his sword, vanishing at the end of the starry sky.
He did not want to get involved in the muddy waters between the Ming Empire and the Shen Ge Clan!
Having obtained the benefits, he immediately slipped away!
Qi Dianxia looked up at the horizon, lost in thought.
At this moment, Lin Feng suddenly said, “Your Highness, what should we do now?”
Qi Dianxia’s expression was calm, “Flee!”
Lin Feng was stunned.
Qi Dianxia smiled, “The people from the Shen Ge Clan should be arriving soon! Let us go!”
Lin Feng hesitated, then said, “This young man is no ordinary person. Should we frame him, let him clash with the Shen Ge Clan, and we reap the benefits?”
Qi Dianxia glanced at Lin Feng, then said, “Such behaviour, how is it different from beasts?”
Lin Feng lowered his head slightly, not daring to speak.
Qi Dianxia said softly, “This Young Master Ye is no ordinary man. Though we are now even with him, we have formed a bond of fate. If we scheme against him, this good fate will turn into a bad one!”
With that, she shook her head slightly and added, “Moreover, such actions go against my true heart!”
Lin Feng sighed softly, saying no more!
Back in the Ming Empire, Qi Dianxia had very good relations with people because she was too kind!
Qi Dianxia said again, “What we can do now is hide, wait until the Shen Ge Clan lowers their guard against us. Only then can we do more things.”
Lin Feng hesitated, then said, “They probably will not lower their guard against us!”
Qi Dianxia smiled, “Then create a new point of attraction! For example, the treasures of the Ming Empire!”
With that, she glanced around and said, “We can appropriately leak some locations of the treasures. Those under the Shen Ge Clan will definitely be interested in the Ming Empire’s treasures. As for us, apart from the older generation of powerhouses from the Shen Ge Clan back then, the new generation of Shen Ge Clan powerhouses have little hatred towards us. So, as long as the treasures appear, their attention will shift to those treasures, and we can avoid clashing head-on with them!”
Lin Feng nodded slightly, “Everything as Your Highness commands!”
Qi Dianxia smiled faintly, “Let us go!”
With that, she turned and left.
Lin Feng hurriedly followed!
…
In a certain part of the starry sky, Ye Xuan looked at the storage ring in his hand, and the corners of his mouth curved up slightly!
Another one hundred million Shen Ge Crystals!
He now had a full one hundred and ninety million Shen Ge Crystals, because he had spent ten million on previous cultivation!
Ye Xuan put away the storage ring, turned his head to look around, then took out a sound transmission talisman and crushed it.
Contacting Qingqiu!
However, soon his brows furrowed, because there was no response!
And he could not sense Qingqiu either!
Had this girl left again?
Ye Xuan’s face darkened.
He was not worried about Qingqiu’s safety. Joking aside, this girl was fierce as a horse!
Ye Xuan was silent for a moment, then turned and left!
He decided to first familiarise himself with this Desolate Battlefield. Qingqiu had brought a group here for training, so there must be someone who knew her.
Soon, Ye Xuan arrived at Desolate City!
This was an ancient city, once under the rule of the Ming Empire. However, because of its remote location, when the Shen Ge Clan destroyed the Ming Empire back then, this place was not affected. The Shen Ge Clan had no interest in it either, so now this place was a free city! After so many years of development, the city was now very prosperous, a hub for various forces.
As Ye Xuan was about to enter the city, he was directly stopped by a guard. The guard sized up Ye Xuan without speaking.
Ye Xuan smiled, flicked his finger, and several ordinary crystals fell before the guard. The guard picked up the crystals, then stepped aside.
At this moment, the small pagoda suddenly said, “Little master, why do you indulge such a person?”
Ye Xuan said, “Then what do you think I should do?”
The small pagoda said, “Exterminate him!”
Ye Xuan smiled, “What you say is not without reason, but for me, giving to him or exterminating him is just a thought away! I can do it, or not do it!”
The small pagoda said gravely, “You are indulging him!”
Ye Xuan said softly, “Some bad rules exist inevitably! For example, if I exterminate him, and someone else stands here, that person will still continue the same thing! Unless I exterminate the entire city!”
The small pagoda fell silent.
Ye Xuan smiled, then said, “Your words remind me of something, that is my academy! One can imagine, in the academy, there must be these ‘rules’ I do not know about… Can they be completely eradicated? Impossible! Human nature is greedy, I cannot exterminate everyone’s human nature!”
The small pagoda said gravely, “Then you just indulge it like this?”
Ye Xuan said softly, “These troublesome matters, leave them to Qingqiu and Qin Guan to handle! Why should you and I worry about it?”
With that, he walked into the city!
Just then, the guard suddenly said, “Wait!”
Ye Xuan turned to look at the guard. The guard stared at Ye Xuan, “Not enough!”
Not enough!
Ye Xuan blinked, “Earlier I saw people entering the city giving you crystals, compared to them, I gave more, not less!”
The guard stared fixedly at Ye Xuan, “I say not enough, it is not enough!”
Ye Xuan smiled, “Do you think I am easy to talk to? So you want to extort a bit more?”
The guard’s eyes narrowed slightly, “This is Desolate City, I…”
Ye Xuan suddenly raised his hand and swung.
Boom!
The guard was directly erased!
Without even a sound!
Ye Xuan turned and left.
The heart of man is never satisfied, like a snake swallowing an elephant!
After entering the city, Ye Xuan glanced around, and finally found a restaurant. There were quite a few guests inside.
A waiter came over, “What would the guest like to drink?”
Ye Xuan smiled, “The best drinks, the best food, bring some of everything!”
The waiter hurriedly said, “Right away!”
With that, he retreated!
Ye Xuan found a seat by the street. From this position, he could see the entire street clearly. The street was bustling with people coming and going, very lively!
Soon, the waiter brought good wine and good dishes!
A full table!
Ye Xuan started eating directly!
One had to say, at this moment, he finally felt like he was alive!
As a cultivator, eating or not eating no longer mattered.
But now, eating the things before him, he felt like a person again.
The stronger a cultivator becomes, the fainter their humanity grows!
At this moment, a woman in Miao attire suddenly sat before Ye Xuan. She had a long braid, her appearance very cute and delicate. At her waist, there was a short knife!
Ye Xuan glanced at the woman and smiled, “Sister, do you have business?”
The woman smiled, “I am from the Shen Ge Clan!”
Ye Xuan nodded, “And then?”
The woman stared at Ye Xuan, “You killed one of ours!”
Ye Xuan said calmly, “I did not!”
The woman’s eyes narrowed slightly, “We investigated, it was you who killed one of ours, and moreover, you saved a general and a princess from the Ming Empire!”
Ye Xuan said, “I did not!”
The woman frowned slightly, “You dare to do it but not admit it?”
Ye Xuan looked at the woman, “Do you have evidence?”
The woman stared at Ye Xuan, “Are you going to renege?”
Ye Xuan said seriously, “Actions require evidence. Without evidence, do not speak nonsense!”
The woman smiled, “You want evidence, right?”
Ye Xuan nodded.
The woman clapped her hands. Beside them, an old man walked in!
The newcomer was none other than the previous Zhen Yuan!
Zhen Yuan saw Ye Xuan and gave an awkward smile, “Young Master Ye, we meet again!”
The woman stared at Ye Xuan, “The witness is here, what more do you have to say?”
Ye Xuan took a sip of the small wine, then said, “You are not from the Shen Ge Clan!”
The woman’s eyes narrowed, “You still want to quibble?”
Ye Xuan glanced at the woman, “If you were from the Shen Ge Clan, you would not waste so many words with me! Because as the top force, they would not be so low-key! Clearly, you are not from the Shen Ge Clan! If I am not wrong, you came to extort me, right?”
Beside him, Zhen Yuan’s expression changed.
The woman was silent for a moment, then said, “Do not speak recklessly, evidence is needed!”
Ye Xuan smiled, “Leave! You cannot afford to provoke me!”
The woman stared at Ye Xuan, “You obtained a lot of Shen Ge Crystals, right?”
Ye Xuan nodded.
The woman said, “Share some with me, alright?”
Ye Xuan looked at the woman, “Why should I?”
The woman opened her palm. When Ye Xuan saw what was in her hand, he jumped up directly, “Bloody hell? Ah? You…”
