Supreme of the Heavenly Realm-Chapter 646 - 640
Chapter 646: 640
Clang!
Just as Zuo Shi was preparing to break through the water and continue her fight against Ye Xuan, his Sword Qi struck again, precisely hitting her sword and sending her tumbling back into the depths.
"How about that, are you convinced now?" Ye Xuan inquired through a transmission while sending Zuo Shi plunging to the lakebed, with a trace of mockery in his tone.
"Not convinced!"
Zuo Shi’s pretty face fell dark, utterly shocked that she would suffer such a crushing defeat to Ye Xuan. Yet the look on Ye Xuan’s face made her refuse to concede no matter what.
"Not convinced? Do you believe I won’t bury you under the earth, you stubborn girl?" Ye Xuan’s eyes flashed with fierceness, showing not the slightest hint of pity for her.
"You!"
Zuo Shi was both embarrassed and angry; she commanded her long sword, and with the power of her Sword Qi, she shot up through the water, seemingly intent on breaking free from the lake’s grasp first.
However, Ye Xuan wouldn’t let her have her way so easily. At the thought, the Rain Saint Sword appeared beneath his feet, and with man and sword as one, he glided through the water, quickly catching up to Zuo Shi.
At that moment, the surface of the water on which Zuo Shi was about to stand tore apart violently, forming a vortex. Just as she broke the surface, her delicate feet were suddenly grabbed, and with a harsh pull, amid her panic-stricken screams, she was dragged back into the icy waters.
Caught at close range, Zuo Shi hurriedly tried to muster True Yuan, her hands poised to strike with her sword at Ye Xuan.
But barely had she made to move when a long arm reached out from behind her, locking down both her wrists while the other hand secured her slim waist.
"Senior Sister Zuo, you’ve already lost; why continue this futile struggle?" Ye Xuan frowned slightly; this Zuo Shi was indeed too tenacious, and such women were the hardest to deal with.
"I haven’t lost yet. Let go of me, you despicable and shameful scoundrel!" Zuo Shi struggled fiercely, her Spiritual Power surging, but her limbs and vital points were all locked in place by Ye Xuan, and she couldn’t break free at all.
"Despicable and shameful?" Ye Xuan was taken aback, wondering when he had became associated with such traits. However, he quickly scoffed and deliberately moved his face closer to hers.
"What are you doing?" Zuo Shi became somewhat frantic; after all, she was still a young girl, and Ye Xuan’s actions left her feeling completely flustered.
"You’re the one who said I was despicable and shameful, right? Well, I might as well show you just how despicable I can be—to truly embody those words. Otherwise, if I do nothing and already get branded as a scoundrel, that seems like a bad deal to me," Ye Xuan said with a half-mocking, half-laughing tone.
"Ye Xuan, you jerk..."
Just as Ye Xuan was puzzled, Zuo Shi, who had just been quiet, suddenly burst into tears, crying as if she had suffered the greatest humiliation.
"Hey, come on, Senior Sister Zuo, don’t do this, I hate it when you women cry." Ye Xuan began to feel a headache. If Zuo Shi had stubbornly refused to give in, he had many ways to deal with her, but her current state left him feeling awkward and exceeded his expectations.
However, Zuo Shi ignored him, continuing to cry fiercely with swollen, red eyes, full of grievance.
Zuo Shi shuddered, fear arresting her cries as she looked at Ye Xuan, his face darkened with anger. The fearlessness that she usually harbored had now faded to a flicker of fear. She had become somewhat afraid of Ye Xuan and did not doubt that the detestable guy might do something even crazier.
"The situation today wasn’t my fault; you came looking for trouble, it’s your own doing. I certainly haven’t bullied you." Seeing that his stern rebuke actually worked and made Zuo Shi stop, Ye Xuan felt a bit surprised and immediately said in a harsh tone without showing his feelings.
Zuo Shi glared at Ye Xuan, her eyes red and full of humiliation and anger, "Ye Xuan, remember this, it’s not over today. I won’t let you off!"
The moment her words fell, she swiftly moved upwards, fleeing as if she feared Ye Xuan would attack her. She moved quickly and, after leaving the lake, didn’t talk to anyone and directly headed for the outskirts of Spirit Domain Lake.
"I hope this girl is just talking tough and won’t come looking for me again."
Ye Xuan muttered to himself with a curled lip, thinking that if Zuo Shi came back with even stronger disciples, he would never have peace.
However, Ye Xuan was not one to shy away from problems. He didn’t even fear offending two Great Saints, much less a reckless young girl.
His priority now was to consolidate his Cultivation, and he decided not to dwell on other matters for the time being.
"This place isn’t hidden anymore, and it’s too easy to be found. I need to find somewhere else."
Ye Xuan had invested nearly half a month’s Contribution Value. He intended to continue his Cultivation at Spirit Domain Lake and couldn’t afford to waste the Contribution Value. Saying this, he also moved swiftly toward the distance.
Meanwhile, as Ye Xuan was preparing to continue his Cultivation, Zuo Shi had returned to her residence atop a western mountain peak in Heavenly Martial Holy Land, her emotions in full fury.
"What’s wrong, Zuo Shi?"
A gentle and charming woman walked over, looking with some surprise at the uncontrolled Zuo Shi. This woman was Zuo Shi’s sister, Zuo Lingyun, a well-known senior disciple within Heavenly Martial Holy Land who had reached the Saint Realm level, an elite status within the Holy Land’s disciples.
Such a disciple’s position within Heavenly Martial Holy Land was no less than that of an Elder, with even greater prospects for the future.
"It’s nothing; I was just bitten by a dog." Zuo Shi considered revealing the truth but couldn’t bring herself to speak of it. She couldn’t let Zuo Lingyun know, or it would be utterly embarrassing.
"Didn’t you go to find that newcomer called Ye Xuan? How did it go, not so well?" Zuo Lingyun asked with a teasing smile.
"No, it went well. I taught that kid a harsh lesson, and it’s over." Zuo Shi was anxious not to be found out and said through clenched teeth.
"Is that so? I thought someone might have bullied you. Well, then, rest up, and I won’t disturb you further," Zuo Lingyun said, smiling as she exited the room.
Once Zuo Lingyun had left, Zuo Shi slammed her fist onto her bed, her beautiful eyes brimming with resentment, "Damn you, Ye Xuan, how could you embarrass me so much? Just you wait. I can’t let my sister find out about this; I need to find a reliable ally."
Zuo Shi contemplated in her mind who could firmly deal with Ye Xuan. Lu Hun had been unreliable and no match for Ye Xuan, but with her wide network in Heavenly Martial Holy Land, finding a senior disciple to discipline Ye Xuan was hardly a difficult task.
