Chapter 101: I Won't Hurt You
Ye Fei smiled, surprised that he was so arrogant.
However, cultivators with strong cultivation levels do indeed have reason to be arrogant.
Although she didn't know Li's true identity or cultivation level, she could sense that he was very powerful.
“Let’s go back to the academy.” Ye Fei didn’t continue the previous topic. She took a few steps and then stopped, turning her head to say, “I’m willing to give you the weapon that I designed myself because I’m sincere to you.”
"Li, although I don't know who you are, you won't hurt me, right?"
Li Yuan stared intently at the girl.
After a long pause, he said, "Yes, I won't hurt you."
I used to hate you to the core, wishing I could grind you to dust.
But now, he can't bear to part with it.
Ye Fei smiled, having received the answer she wanted to hear.
...
Late at night, inside the Night Palace.
Ye Jingyao sat in the main seat, while Ye Minghui and Ye Tong knelt before him, trembling. The siblings' faces were filled with terror, and they dared not utter a single word.
"Dongfang? Wuming?" Ye Jingyao leaned back in his chair, staring at the two men. "Are you implying that these two men in black, whose identities remain unknown, slaughtered the dozen or so experts I sent out from the Ye family?"
"Father, that is indeed the case..."
Ye Tong looked up and pulled open her collar, showing Ye Jingyao the marks on her neck that Li Yuan had choked her. Tears welled in her eyes as she said, "That guy named Wuming even hurt me... Father, you must avenge me!"
"Useless thing!"
Ye Jingyao angrily smashed the teacup beside him. A shard of glass grazed Ye Tong's face, leaving a small cut, but Ye Tong dared not utter a sound. She could only shrink back a few steps. "I even gave you a spirit staff. It's one thing that you didn't cultivate properly, but that Dongfang even pawned it! Do you know that spirit staff is a Xuan-rank weapon!"
Ye Tong gritted her teeth, her eyes filled with hatred.
If it weren't for that damned Dongfang, her spirit staff wouldn't have been stolen, and her father wouldn't have blamed her!
Ye Minghui pursed his lips and bowed, saying, "Father, this matter cannot be blamed on Tong'er. If it weren't for Dongfang and Wuming, we wouldn't have been able to return alive from the Forest of Fireflies..."
"If you can't return alive from the Forest of Fireflies, what difference is there between you and trash?" Ye Jingyao sneered, his sharp gaze fixed on the brother and sister. "Our Ye Clan has been able to stand firm among the eight great families of the human realm because the Ye Clan never raises trash!"
Ye Jingyao took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and slightly suppressed his anger. He said coldly, "What about Ye Fei? Did you see Ye Fei in the Forest of Fireflies?"
Ye Minghui looked up, his expression surprised: "Ye Fei? Ye Fei also went to the Forest of Fireflies?"
"I received news that Ye Fei and a classmate have gone to the Forest of Fireflies for training." Ye Jingyao stared coldly at Ye Minghui. "Minghui, you haven't seen Ye Fei?"
"Father, Minghui has never seen Yefei in the Forest of Fireflies."
Ye Jingyao frowned; something was amiss.
Minghui did not see Yefei in the Forest of Fireflies; Yefei had vanished as if she had evaporated into thin air.
The dozen or so Night Clan experts he sent out were killed by the two unidentified men in black.
Is it a coincidence? Or...?
"Alright, you two can go now." Ye Jingyao suddenly felt a bit exhausted and waved to the two of them.
In this pursuit, Ye Fei survived, but the Ye clan lost more than a dozen experts...
What a huge loss! Absolutely a huge loss!
