Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1630: Chapter 1610: Battle for Supremacy

However, Haan Bing had not expected that his opponent, with just one strike, would knock him aside; the mere force of the attack injured him, leaving a long bloody gash on his chest and staining his white robe, making him appear particularly pathetic.

”With skills like this, you still want to play hero and rescue the damsel?” Huangfu Ze sneered disdainfully, wielding his curved sword casually, sending gusts of wind that left Luo Qianqian utterly shocked.

Could Haan Bing’s skills possibly be inferior to Huangfu Ze’s single strike?

Hopefully, Huangfu Yann Yao doesn’t return... Because even if he does, he’s likely marching to his death.

A profound sorrow emerged from within her; she could tell at a glance that Haan Bing was truly injured, with no intention of backing up his act with a hidden strategy.

The scene before her made her anxious and restless, yet powerless, because Huangfu Ze’s eyes were now fixed on her.

He raised the large knife to his face, extending his tongue to lick off a drop of fresh blood, leaving a streak of red on his lips, a truly shocking sight.

More heart-stopping than the most vivid lipstick.

”How about now? If you kneel before me and beg, I’ll spare you and take you back to the Fire Cloud Sect. Being the woman of the number one of this generation doesn’t seem half bad, does it? Better than this person, isn’t it?” Huangfu Ze stepped forward a few paces, planting his foot on Luo Qianqian’s chest, rendering her unable to move at all.

Even if she intended to strike him sneakily, Huangfu Ze would sense it first and kill her.

He now seemed like a hunter teasing his prey, lightly patting Luo Qianqian’s cheek with the curved knife in his hand.

The chilling knife edge left Luo Qianqian unable to contemplate anything else for a moment, just staring blankly at Huangfu Ze, lost and overwhelmed, her mind spinning rapidly.

Yet the knife slowly traced down Luo Qianqian’s face, moving from her cheek to her neck, from the snowy white neck down to her chest, gently flicking to sever the ties at her chest; the skill evident as it did not harm her in the slightest.

She tightly clenched her fists, yet dared not move.

At this moment, she felt fortunate that her inner garments were rather complex; had she been wearing a dress, she might now be completely exposed before Huangfu Ze.

Humiliation and the inability to resist intertwined within her heart, with no recourse but to silently pray.

”What do you say?” Moving the foot away, he placed the curved knife beside Luo Qianqian’s neck. Any slight movement from her would lead the blade to injure her throat.

He knelt beside her with the knife, grinning lewdly while pinching Luo Qianqian’s cheek, then grasping the swelling of her chest with one hand.

Afterward, he spat in disdain, pulling out a handkerchief to wipe his hand, disdain covering his face: ”You call this a woman?”

At this extent, even those little girls who appear younger than Luo Qianqian don’t compare, right! Surely she’s just a child just developing? This suggests Luo Shiqi might not be very old...

But looking at Luo Qianqian’s fairly white and soft skin, once again he flicked his robe and crouched by her side, jeering: ”However, it seems to possess its unique flavor, tasting a bitter fruit occasionally isn’t too bad.”

To hell with an alluring bitter fruit!

Luo Qianqian was utterly enraged, yet she maintained her gaze, expressing her disdain and dissatisfaction. Just as Huangfu Ze stood up, she noticed a familiar shade of blue in the trees behind.

”Why the expression?! Defiant? Do you want to be killed and hung here to nurture the trees!” Huangfu Ze, seeing her expression, became furious, grasping her chin tightly, face shrouded in shadow: ”This generation, even Bai Jian can’t compare to me. Why do you look down on me? I’m the number one of this generation! Why do you disdain me?!” The arrogance on his face practically spelled it out: I’m the best in the world.

”I’ll kill you!” Lifting the curved knife, disregarding any potential utility in Luo Qianqian, he chopped down towards her directly.

Luo Qianqian quietly watched the knife descend, without flinching.

”Clang!”

A ringing sound, the curved knife was blocked; a Trident glowing with golden light intercepted Huangfu Ze’s curved knife.

A blue figure scooped Luo Qianqian from the ground, holding her to stand steadily aside: ”Arrived late.”

Luo Qianqian: ”...” How long have you been watching the spectacle?

”Thank you, Young Master Shui, for the rescue.” As Luo Qianqian staggered to one side, the foot planted on her chest by Huangfu Ze had not been light, one could say it was really heavy.

If not for Shui Yuntian’s help, she feared she wouldn’t have been able to get up.

The strength from the azure intercepted his attack, leaving Huangfu Ze incredulous, knowing all too well that his skills surely placed him atop the pyramid’s pit.

Therefore, it’s clear who this individual before him was.

His face suddenly turned solemn: ”Water Ripple Sect, Shui Yuntian.”

Though unacquainted, the confirmation in his tone was evident, his gaze toward the man in blue carrying a palpable fury: ”Is Brother Shui aware? The Nine Heavens Pavilion and Ten Thousand Sect share intimate ties, isn’t Brother Shui aware?”

Although the Fire Cloud Sect is part of the Top Ten Sects, it’s at the bottom, whereas the Water Ripple Sect is at the top; challenging the Water Ripple Sect is something beyond the Fire Cloud Sect’s reach.

This fact, he understands clearly.

However, the connection between the Nine Heavens Pavilion and Ten Thousand Sect is publicly known and isn’t a secret, nor is there intent to conceal, is there?

So what does Shui Yuntian intend by this now?

”I and Shiqi have personal ties, unrelated to Sect matters.” Shui Yuntian looked calm, observing Luo Qianqian, who had stood properly, only then adjusting his weapon: ”Just heard... this brother here is the number one of the young generation, feeling a bit restless and couldn’t help wanting to test my skills, that’s all.”

But the position of Shui Yuntian isn’t one that others can challenge?

In hearing Shui Yuntian’s words, however, Huangfu Ze couldn’t help displaying a peculiar expression, his face full of surprise, anger, and annoyance: ”I am Huangfu Ze of the Fire Cloud Sect!”

Did he not even know who he was! This feels even more insulting than losing!

”Brother Huangfu.” A look of understanding flashed on Shui Yuntian’s face, but he seemed indifferent.

His grips tightened on the Trident, pointing it obliquely at Huangfu Ze, taking a small step outwards; though a proper stance for confronting foes, it gave Huangfu Ze a sense of humiliation!

”Please guide me.” Shui Yuntian was utterly unfazed, even though he cared little for the title of number one, it isn’t for the person before him to take!

The Trident before him suddenly surged with heat and explosiveness, surpassing Huangfu Ze’s understanding.

In this instant, Huangfu Ze’s body leaped up, his twin blades dividing back into two hands, a massive surge of spiritual power pouring into the blades, advancing towards Shui Yuntian with crushing force.
