Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 2129: Chapter 2127: That Transaction

Xiao Yi coldly gazed at the woman.

When Yiyi’s expression suddenly turned icy, he had already sensed something was wrong, and knew it was that woman transmitting sound.

Although he didn’t know what the woman was transmitting.

But Xiao Yi could well guess it.

Nothing more than threats that if Yiyi agreed, she’d help slaughter his Xiao Family and kill Xiao Yi.

Since he came out, Xiao Yi had witnessed countless schemes and intrigues.

Such tricks might deceive Yiyi, but in front of him, they were not worth mentioning.

The woman, hearing Xiao Yi’s words, paid no attention.

She didn’t even care about Xiao Yi’s gaze, her eyes remained fixed on Yiyi.

”Yiyi, do you really want to leave with him?” The woman’s voice was both authoritative and tinged with sorrow.

Indeed, if she wanted, with a wave of her hand, she could have prevented Xiao Yi from approaching the platform earlier.

But she never took action.

What she was concerned about was Yiyi.

She still felt the same.

”For over ten years, I have poured my efforts into nurturing you.”

”Ask yourself, in the entire sect, who hasn’t treated you excellently?”

”Whatever you needed, did I ever refuse? From the sect’s cultivation resources, the inheritance from past generations, to countless rare heavenly materials and earthly treasures, did you ever lack even a bit?”

”If you frowned, the entire sect, even those elders in seclusion for years, would find ways to make you smile.”

”If you leave today, can you live up to the whole Holy Moon Sect, to its history through the generations?”

There was not a single threat in the woman’s words.

The woman’s voice was soft, but her tone carried weight.

Upon hearing this, Yiyi’s body trembled.

The woman saw this, and a flash of joy briefly appeared in her eyes.

With her methods, these words aimed at the heart were all too simple.

Yet, after Yiyi’s body shook, she turned her gaze towards Xiao Yi.

This man she had waited for over ten years, as she waited for him, was he not also waiting?

Every night, her sleep filled with longing and torment; did he not feel the same?

It was because she knew these things that when she heard his light and understated words earlier, she truly felt the sincerity in each word.

While she grieved for ten years, her prince had endured a journey for her, undoubtedly far more painful tenfold, a hundredfold, a thousandfold.

How could she let him continue to wait?

Yiyi looked at the woman, gave a solemn bow, and bent her body in a deep salute.

”The grace of my master is like being reborn, Yiyi does not dare to forget.”

”Yiyi will definitely return.”

”Only, now Yiyi wants to go with my prince.”

The woman’s brow furrowed, face turning cold, ”Nonsense.”

”Today is the day of the union between our Holy Moon Sect and Beiyin Palace, also your day of great joy, how can you leave just like that.”

Without waiting for Yiyi to speak, the woman immediately increased the intensity of her tone, ”If you leave today, our Holy Moon Sect will lose face before all the hidden forces.”

”If you leave today, our Holy Moon Sect, I, and every elder who has deeply loved and cherished you, will become laughingstocks.”

”Is the entire Holy Moon Sect, I, and each one of the elders not worth more than that boy?”

Upon hearing this, Yiyi’s face turned pale.

”Enough.” At that moment, a loud voice came from the distance.

A figure rose into the air.

”Elder Cang Yue?” Yiyi looked in confusion at the person soaring in the air.

”Saint Lord, that’s enough.” Elder Cang Yue stared straight at the Saint Lord, a hint of anger in his tone, ”Could it be that the Saint Lord truly thinks the Holy Daughter doesn’t realize these are words to manipulate her heart?”

”She only doesn’t want to see you, Saint Lord, upset.”

”Could the Saint Lord truly think the Holy Daughter is a fool, incapable of even a guess?”

”She just doesn’t want to believe.”

”Cang Yue.” The woman’s eyes narrowed, ”You violated sect rules, you should have been imprisoned in the Holy Prison for a century.”

”Today, due to the grand event, the whole sect celebrates, so we made an exception to release you.”

”And yet, you speak nonsense?”

”I am not speaking nonsense.” Elder Cang Yue’s expression was serious, ”Saint Lord imprisoned me for years, and I also thought through many things for years.”

”The Holy Daughter, not yet of age, was brought to the sect by the Saint Lord.”

”From her start at the Holy Moon Sect, she was delightful and greatly beloved by each of us old guys.”

”The once icy Holy Moon Sect, suddenly had a bit more laughter.”

”Why not ask every elder in the sect, who would want to see her suffer a lifetime?”

”Are you lecturing me?” The woman’s eyes suddenly turned cold.

”I wouldn’t dare.” Elder Cang Yue hurriedly cupped his hands, ”I am only trying to tell the Saint Lord that what the Saint Lord feels is good for the Holy Daughter might not be what she is willing to accept.”

”Since the Holy Daughter came to the Holy Moon Sect, every step of her growth has been within the Saint Lord’s plan.”

”Sometimes, even if the Holy Daughter is unwilling, or even if she herself is unaware, everything has been within the Saint Lord’s deliberate guidance.”

”Including all these years, and this Sword Dao demon matter, including today’s union...”

”Enough.” The woman coldly shouted, ”Cang Yue, are you going to continue with this madness?”

”Not enough.” Elder Cang Yue shook his head, ”This Sword Dao demon actually came to the Central Region as early as four years ago.”

”But the Saint Lord concealed this from the Holy Daughter, instead sending subordinates to kill him, not stopping until he was dead.”

”The Sword Dao demon searching for the Holy Daughter, the Saint Lord knew all along.”

”Rather than seeing the Holy Daughter desolate, longing each night, miserable, you sealed all messages regarding this Sword Dao demon.”

”One person talking led to slaughtering the entire clan; ten people talking led to a city being blood-washed.”

”Even if the Saint Lord is doing this for the Holy Daughter’s benefit, paving a path for her on the Martial Arts Dao, if she loses even her own heart, even if she truly becomes a Heaven and Earth strong person one day, she is but an empty shell...”

”Enough.” The woman finally erupted in anger, waving her hand.

Crack, crack, crack...

Suddenly, space around Elder Cang Yue shattered.

Elder Cang Yue’s body instantly torn apart in the spatial rift, like a thousand cuts.

In an instant, Elder Cang Yue was no more, directly turned to ash and smoke.

”Elder Cang Yue.” Yiyi exclaimed in shock.

The next second, Yiyi looked in disbelief at the woman, ”Master...”

The woman’s face was ice-cold, ”Elder Cang Yue was imprisoned in the Holy Prison and had long developed heart demons. Today he became directly deranged, clearly, the heart demon had penetrated his marrow, beyond cure.”

”Heh.” Xiao Yi sneered, ”It wasn’t him developing a heart demon, but some people were caught off guard, embarrassed, and angry.”

The woman’s face was chillingly unpleasant to the extreme.

She had always been unwilling to take action, only considering Yiyi’s presence.

However, the current situation had clearly gone beyond her expectations.

The woman’s icy gaze finally fell on Xiao Yi, ”You said you came to the Holy Moon Sect to fulfill an agreement, to take someone from the Holy Moon Sect.”

”Tell me, what gives you the right? What makes you think you have the qualifications?”

”Back then, when the Saint Lord took Yiyi away, it was simply a transaction.”

”Yiyi left with the Saint Lord, the cost being the Saint Lord saved your entire Xiao Family.”

What right? What qualifications?

Yes, it was a transaction.

After the Saint Lord saved the entire Xiao Family, Yiyi was no longer related to the Xiao Family, but a member of the Holy Moon Sect.
