Invincible Soul Emperor

Chapter 2: Chapter 2 Disposal

”Bastard! You absorbed my cultivation?” Li Susu was enraged and humiliated.

She had tried to steal a chicken, only to lose the rice she brought as bait. Her attempt at Dual Cultivation failed to snatch Ye Qingchen’s Martial Soul. Instead, he had absorbed her cultivation!

Ye Qingchen looked disappointed, shaking his head. ”I truly loved you, so I never guarded myself against you! I never imagined you would scheme against me for a full decade. You’re as venomous as a serpent! Li Susu, you’ve disappointed me greatly.”

”Bastard, return my cultivation!” Enraged and embarrassed, Li Susu threw a palm strike at Ye Qingchen.

Fearless, Ye Qingchen met her strike with a palm of his own.

BANG!

Their palms collided, and Li Susu was forced back three steps. Ye Qingchen stood his ground, unmoving. He had actually gained the upper hand!

”Tsk, tsk, tsk. So this is what it feels like to improve one’s cultivation? How exhilarating!” Looking at his palm and feeling the unprecedented power within him, Ye Qingchen was utterly satisfied.

The recent Dual Cultivation had allowed him to absorb Li Susu’s feminine essence and the Willow Soul Power she had nurtured in her body for the past decade. This propelled his cultivation from the First to the Fourth Layer of the Martial Apprentice realm in one fell swoop!

”Fourth-Layer Martial Apprentice!” Feeling Ye Qingchen’s cultivation, Li Susu’s face turned ashen. She had been utterly exhausted by Ye Qingchen earlier, leaving her physically weak. Even though they were at the same cultivation layer, he was able to suppress her!

”When did you see through my plan?” Li Susu was confident her act was flawless, with no openings. How could Ye Qingchen have seen through her intentions, let alone seize the opportunity to absorb part of her cultivation?

Ye Qingchen merely sneered, saying nothing. He couldn’t be bothered to explain anything to such a venomous woman.

”Hmph! So what if you’ve broken through to the Fourth-Layer Martial Apprentice? I can still slaughter you!” Li Susu’s expression turned icy. She charged at Ye Qingchen, and when she was three meters away, she struck fiercely with her palm.

Three overlapping waves of energy roared forth from her palm, blasting toward Ye Qingchen!

This was the Li Family’s ultimate technique, the high-grade Yellow-rank Martial Technique, Triple Wave! With one strike, her palm could unleash three waves of energy, each twice as powerful as the last. It was an incredibly potent attack. Li Susu had once used Triple Wave to defeat an opponent two layers above her in cultivation. Since Ye Qingchen had never learned any Martial Techniques, Li Susu was confident she could kill him with a single blow.

Facing Li Susu’s Triple Wave, Ye Qingchen’s brow furrowed. Suddenly, the Dual Pupil Martial Soul deep within his mind quivered and flew open!

HUM!

At the same time, Ye Qingchen’s vision altered. Li Susu’s previously swift and sharp attacks suddenly became incredibly slow in his sight. The flaws within her Triple Wave technique were laid bare for him to see!

Ye Qingchen’s eyes brightened. Instead of retreating, he advanced, his palm striking forward, deftly weaving through her attack as if plucking a flower from among the leaves to aim straight for Li Susu.

”Hmph! Courting death!” Seeing Ye Qingchen’s action, Li Susu’s heart filled with scorn. But in the next moment, Ye Qingchen’s palm had already landed on her chest.

CRACK!

The sound of breaking bones echoed as Li Susu fell heavily onto the bed behind her. A sweet taste filled her throat as she spat out a mouthful of blood.

”How is this possible...” Li Susu’s face was deathly pale, her heart filled with disbelief. She had used a Martial Technique, yet she was defeated in a single move by Ye Qingchen, who had just broken through to the Fourth-Layer Martial Apprentice.

After sending Li Susu flying, Ye Qingchen immediately pressed his advantage. He closed the distance in an instant, raising his foot to take her life while she was weak. With no pity for the beautiful woman before him, his foot crashed down, shattering Li Susu’s Dantian!

”No!” Intense pain erupted from her Dantian, followed by an overwhelming sensation of emptiness. Li Susu’s face grew even paler, her eyes turning bloodshot.

That trash Ye Qingchen actually crippled my Dantian!

Without a Dantian, she could no longer gather Spiritual Energy. She was doomed to live the rest of her life as a cripple!

”Bastard, if you have the guts, kill me!” Sweat beaded on Li Susu’s brow from the pain. She gritted her teeth and glared ferociously at Ye Qingchen.

”Hmph! Killing you would be letting you off too easy,” Ye Qingchen’s voice was incredibly cold. ”From now on, you will experience what it’s like to be called trash, to be ridiculed by countless people, and to be bullied every single day!”

Kill Li Susu?

Although his heart screamed with the desire to hack her into a thousand pieces, he would not fall for her goading. He was certain that the moment he killed her, the Li Family Head, Li Zhe, would be upon him. He would never leave the Li Family alive. Besides, for Li Susu, living as a crippled, walking corpse would be a hundred times more agonizing than death. She had deceived him for ten years, tried to steal his Willow Wood Martial Soul, and attempted to kill him. Ye Qingchen would not grant her the mercy of an easy death. Forcing her to live without hope was the greatest punishment he could devise.

”Bastard! My life is hopeless, but don’t you dare think you can leave our Li Family alive. My father will avenge me personally!” Her face contorted with rage, Li Susu struggled to get up and rammed her head viciously into the wall.

Ye Qingchen reached out and grabbed her. ”Such a beauty. It would be a shame for you to die just like that, wouldn’t it?”

Feeling Ye Qingchen’s lecherous gaze, panic surged in Li Susu’s heart. ”What... what are you going to do?”

”Our previous Dual Cultivation brought me considerable benefits. How about we go for another round?”

RRRIP!

Amidst Li Susu’s cry of alarm, Ye Qingchen ripped her purple dress in two, exposing her. Showing no mercy, he pressed himself down on her snow-white, delicate body.

After a decade of silent dedication, it’s about time I collected some interest.

「An hour later.」

The battle was over. Ye Qingchen dressed himself, shaking his head with regret. He had hoped this round of Dual Cultivation would raise his cultivation even further, but it had yielded nothing. It seemed Li Susu’s Dual Cultivation Method only worked once; a second time had no effect at all.

If I’d known, I wouldn’t have bothered with a second time. What a waste of energy.

”Ye Qingchen, I will tear you to pieces...” The physical agony and mental torment made Li Susu wish she could devour him whole.

”Noisy!” Before Li Susu could finish, Ye Qingchen knocked her unconscious with a sharp chop of his hand.

I can’t stay here any longer.

Ye Qingchen prepared to make a quick escape. The Dual Cultivation had taken a significant amount of time. If the Li Family Head, Li Zhe, came to investigate, he would be a dead man.

However, his worst fears were realized. Ye Qingchen had only walked a few dozen meters from the room when he saw the Li Family Head, Li Zhe, walking right toward him.

Panic flooded Ye Qingchen’s heart. Li Zhe wasn’t a mere Martial Apprentice; he was an Eighth-Layer Martial Artist with formidable power. He could crush Ye Qingchen with a single finger! Facing Li Zhe, Ye Qingchen had no chance of survival.

As their eyes met, Ye Qingchen heard Li Zhe’s thoughts. Hmm? Didn’t Su Su say she would kill him after their Dual Cultivation? How did this brat get out? And where is Su Su? Did something unexpected happen?

The next moment, Li Zhe strode toward him, his face grim, his murderous intent palpable.
