Chapter 1595: Chapter 1595: Such Deep Father-Daughter Affection

"Ye Xuan..." Chen Yue’s eyes were bloodshot, raging with fury: "Ye Xuan!!"

"Master, calm down!" the middle-aged man hurriedly advised, "I hope Master considers the bigger picture and doesn’t act impulsively. Our plan this time is thorough. Ye Xuan is doomed tomorrow in the duel!"

Chen Yue closed his eyes once more, trying hard to calm his emotions.

The old become like demons.

In just a few breaths, the fierce anger on Chen Yue’s face subsided considerably. When he opened his eyes again, the rage in them had been replaced with a cold and sinister look.

As venomous as a snake!

"Ye Xuan, tomorrow at Canglang Island, I’ll make sure you have no place to be buried!"

...

The night was as calm as water, soft and quiet.

Ye Xuan lay back on the recliner on his home balcony, squinting his eyes, contentedly gazing at the starry sky, his mind wandering, occasionally letting out a wry chuckle.

Life is not easy, it’s tough being a man!

Even though a day had passed, recalling the events of last night, Ye Xuan still felt unworthy of being a man.

What a great opportunity? Simply once in a lifetime!

In that situation, almost all Ye Xuan needed was a slight evil thought to accomplish an unprecedented feat in his life, having three at once, with all three being exceptional beauties, something most men wouldn’t even dare to dream of.

Why did I choose to be a good person, a hypocritical gentleman, despite having a choice?

"If only I could turn back time..."

Ye Xuan thought carefully and then shuddered, "Even then, I wouldn’t opt for three, just two would be enough."

What an international joke?

Leng Qiuge and Liu Ying, they’re both my women anyway. Occasionally doing something deemed despicable, if they’re none the wiser, the most it’s a beating and scolding, a cost I’m willing to bear.

But who exactly is Xiao Zhiqing?

If he messed with that demon, Ye Xuan’s life would probably be a series of nightmares, right?

Thinking of this, the distress in Ye Xuan’s heart finally eased, he thought fortunately he restrained himself last night, otherwise even opting for two would still risk greed taking over.

If things progressed to taking on three...

Man, might as well be dead!

Ye Xuan sighed deeply, now all he could do was pray.

Swoosh!

Just as Ye Xuan was lost in thought, a sharp sound of something cutting through the air suddenly emerged.

Ye Xuan raised an eyebrow, catching a Four-cornered Dart between his fingers, finding a small note attached to it.

Ye Xuan glanced into the distant darkness, then opened the note, seeing a line of elegant handwriting.

"Outskirts of the Western city, to determine superiority and decide life or death—Chiba Sakurako!"

Looking at the beautiful handwriting on the note, Ye Xuan was momentarily stunned, then he remembered tomorrow was the day Sword God invited him for a duel.

Sighing helplessly, Ye Xuan shook his head repeatedly, "Such profound father-daughter sentiment."

After a moment’s contemplation, Ye Xuan casually tore up the note, unmoved, and continued to enjoy the night view. He had no interest in this kind of foregone conclusion of a duel.

Yet at that moment.

Swoosh!

The wind noise resounded again, another Four-cornered Dart fell into Ye Xuan’s hand, with another small note attached.

Ye Xuan opened it to find the same handwriting of Chiba Sakurako.

"If you don’t come, then I’ll have to intrude."

Ye Xuan was taken aback, did this woman mean if he didn’t show up at the city’s western outskirts tonight, she’d bring a sword to his home?

The netizens were right, women are big trouble with pig hooves!

Seeing Chiba Sakurako’s second note, Ye Xuan was instantly infuriated.

Threat, this was a barefaced threat!

As a man who cares for his family, could Ye Xuan allow Chiba Sakurako to come to his home for a duel? If something at home got damaged, who would compensate for the losses?

Chiba Sakurako had pushed things to this point, clearly leaving Ye Xuan no room to maneuver.

Interestingly enough, while others employ threats to rob and defile, Chiba Sakurako used coercion for a duel she was clearly marching to her death.

Big pig hoof wants to live long!

"Even an uncle’s patience has a limit!"

Ye Xuan smirked, "Since you insist on dying, don’t blame me for showing no mercy!"

Ye Xuan decided to accept the challenge!

...

East Sea West Suburb, desolate all around.

Even though the bodies of those Martial Arts practitioners who died here last night had been dealt with, the lingering scent of blood in the air was hard to dissipate.

In the dead of night, the endless chirping of insects made the place seem eerily sinister.

Chiba Sakurako, clad in a set of Samurai clothing with two katanas at her waist, stood alone on this desolate land, arms folded behind her back, with a touch of valiant elegance, strikingly different from the usual image of a gentle lady in a kimono.

Chiba Sakurako’s face was expressionless, but her star-like beautiful eyes were filled with a firm determination.

She remained very quiet.

And so, the surrounding atmosphere was also quiet.

In the silence.

Ye Xuan’s voice, full of helplessness, came through: "Tomorrow is the day of the duel between your father and me. You’re risking your life to boost your father’s chances. It’s commendable courage, but frankly, with your strength, you can’t even drain me, let alone hurt me."

Chiba Sakurako raised her beautiful eyes, seeing the slowly approaching silhouette of a man.

"How will I know without trying?" Chiba Sakurako replied coolly.

Ye Xuan laughed and shook his head, "Some things, whether you try or not, the result is the same."

"The result may be the same, but in the process, there are infinite possibilities." Chiba Sakurako stubbornly stated, "If I’m lucky, or you are slightly careless, perhaps I might injure you tonight."

"You know that’s nearly impossible." Ye Xuan smiled.

"Nearly impossible at least isn’t completely impossible." Chiba Sakurako pursed her lips, looking deeply at Ye Xuan, suddenly bowed, "Sorry, I can’t lose my father, so I can only be unfair to you."

"You only think about not losing your father, but have you considered that if I act tonight, your father might lose you?" Ye Xuan said with a smile.

"Life, what sorrow; death, what bitterness." Chiba Sakurako smiled calmly, "My father will understand my intentions."

Ye Xuan opened his mouth, hesitated, and decided not to persuade this stubborn woman.

Most Northern Federation women are traditional. The more traditional they are, the more stubborn. For a typical Northern Federation woman like Chiba Sakurako, once she decides on something, there’s almost no turning back.

After a moment’s pause, Ye Xuan laughed and shook his head, "Tomorrow I might not even go to Canglang Island to fight, even if you risk yourself tonight to hurt me, it won’t make any difference."

Chiba Sakurako watched Ye Xuan for a long moment, "You’ll go."

Ye Xuan squinted his eyes, "Why do you say that?"
