Villainess Rampage: The Whole Sect Begs for Mercy

”Did you kill Lu Nanfeng? Everyone says you did, but I want to hear it from you.”

Even now, he still hoped that Lu Nanfeng had died in an accident, or at the hands of someone else.

But upon hearing this, Ye Chuxue’s expression turned completely cold, a mocking sneer appearing on her face.

”So you came here for revenge?”

”Hah!”

’So I was just being sentimental.’

Her guilt toward Bai Yang vanished in that instant, and Ye Chuxue became utterly indifferent.

”Yes, Lu Nanfeng died at my hands. So what?”

”You probably don’t know this, but I chopped Lu Nanfeng to pieces and fed him to the demon beasts.”

”Those demon beasts loved it. They gobbled him up, bite by bite, until not a scrap was left.”

A cruel smile touched Ye Chuxue’s lips. ”He struggled and begged for his life right before he died. That sound... tsk, so pitiful!”

”Ye Chuxue!!!!”

His eyes red, Bai Yang cut her off with a sharp cry, his voice nearly a choked rasp. ”Ye Chuxue, Nan Feng was so good to you! How could you bring yourself to do it?”

”Just because he stumbled upon your affair with Gu Qingyuan, you had to kill him to silence him? Ye Chuxue, do you even have a heart?”

He had seen all that Lu Nanfeng had done for her. To be killed by Ye Chuxue... ’How much pain and disappointment must my junior brother have felt before he died?’

”Hah, Bai Yang, is that really the kind of person you think I am?”

Ye Chuxue laughed, but it was a laugh born of anger.

Bai Yang actually believed those rumors over her!

She was so disappointed she no longer had the energy to explain.

’So be it. There are no feelings left between us anyway.’

”So, are you going to avenge him?”

”If you want revenge, then bring it on!”

Ye Chuxue silently drew her Longsword, her eyes filled with killing intent, devoid of any trace of their former warmth.

Bai Yang clenched his fists and asked in a hoarse voice, ”Did you know that An Ze died looking for Elixir Pills for you?”

”What?”

Ye Chuxue froze for a moment.

’An Ze is dead too?’

”How could An Ze’s death be so coincidental? Are you sure Song Wanning wasn’t behind it?”

Almost immediately, Ye Chuxue’s suspicion fell on Song Wanning.

After all, An Ze had offended Song Wanning for her sake. Given Song Wanning’s character, it would be perfectly normal for her to eliminate the problem completely.

But these words undoubtedly struck a nerve with Bai Yang.

His expression changed in an instant, his entire body enveloped in a palpable Evil Qi.

”Ye Chuxue, even now, you’re still slandering my master. Aren’t you the least bit sad to hear that An Ze is dead?”

”He died for you!!!”

Bai Yang put heavy emphasis on the word ”you.”

If not for Ye Chuxue, how would An Ze have died?

Yet she showed no hint of grief, only thinking of using this as a chance to slander his master!

He knew perfectly well how good his master had been to An Ze.

Even when An Ze had offended her, a subordinate challenging a superior, his master couldn’t bring herself to cripple his Cultivation, merely expelling him from the sect.

She had never been such a heartless person.

”Bai Yang!”

Ye Chuxue roared, a surge of fury rushing to her head.

Bai Yang always took Song Wanning’s side. Always!!

She had truly had enough.

”So An Ze is dead. What does that have to do with me?”

”Did I ask him to die? He was stupid enough to get himself killed. What could I do about it?”

”Just because he’s dead, am I supposed to get on my knees and repent to him?”

Ye Chuxue practically howled at Bai Yang.

Naturally, she felt bad that An Ze had died, but was Bai Yang trying to pin the blame on her?

She refused to take the fall for this!

”Ye Chuxue.”

Bai Yang’s voice turned utterly cold.

’So, this is Ye Chuxue’s true face.’

He raised his Longsword, its tip aimed at Ye Chuxue.

In an instant, killing intent filled the air between them.

Everything from their past vanished at this moment. The two had finally reached a point where only one could live. If the disciples of the Heavenly Inquiry Sect were to see this, they would surely sigh in lament.

Ye Chuxue also raised her Longsword. A cold glint flashed in her eyes as she lunged toward Bai Yang.

Both were Golden Core Stage Cultivators of comparable strength. They had both been tempered through countless trials and tribulations, and their first exchange ended in a draw.

The fierce shockwave sent them both flying back several dozen meters before they could steady themselves.

The resulting blast wave ripped through the surrounding vegetation, severing stalks and roots and flinging them into the air.

For a moment, dust and weeds filled the area, forcing both of them to narrow their eyes.

Ye Chuxue’s expression hardened. She swung her sword again, forming a seal with her right hand. Instantly, countless seeds sprouted from the ground, and a dense thicket of golden vines shot toward Bai Yang.

Unflustered, Bai Yang swung his sword down with force. A sudden roar echoed behind him as the phantom of a Dragon Soul materialized.

The moment it opened its eyes, an immense pressure tore through the air.

The golden vines were severed by the sword’s light, while Ye Chuxue was thrown back by the Dragon Soul’s power. A metallic, sweet taste rose in her throat.

She flew backward, hovering in mid-air. She touched her chest where her organs had been jarred by the impact, and a vicious glint flashed in her eyes.

’If I hadn’t been injured earlier, how could Bai Yang have possibly hurt me now?’

They had once been familiar with each other’s techniques, but after so long apart, it seemed he had found some new opportunity.

That Dragon Soul phantom seemed to be some kind of powerful Cultivation Technique.

But so what?

She was proficient in Five Elements Magic.

Ye Chuxue’s figure flashed and vanished. In the next instant, an earthen wall erupted from the ground, completely enclosing Bai Yang.

At the same time, a cannibal flower burst from the wall, its gaping, bloody maw lined with sharp teeth, and lunged at Bai Yang.

Bai Yang’s expression grew serious. He quickly swung his sword, which struck the cannibal flower’s massive mouth, only to be clamped down on, impossible to pull free.

He immediately thrust out a palm. The force of the strike was immense, but before it could even reach the cannibal flower, the surrounding walls began to close in on him.

In an instant, the walls pressed him into the center, threatening to crush him into a paste.

Bai Yang’s body jolted. The Dragon Soul phantom reappeared, and with a dragon’s cry, the surrounding walls instantly shattered, dissolving into Spiritual Energy.

But before he could even catch his breath, a curtain of water surged from all sides, crashing toward him.

At the same time, Ye Chuxue formed another seal with her right hand. A sky full of flames ignited on the other side and swept toward him.

Bai Yang frowned and continued to slash with his sword.

This was just how Ye Chuxue fought. Her Chaos Spirit Root allowed her to easily switch between the five elements, and her moves were incredibly varied.

Furthermore, her Dantian was larger than an ordinary person’s, and she possessed far more Spiritual Power.

’Under these circumstances, my chances of winning don’t seem great.’

This battle wouldn’t be decided so easily.

After a moment of thought, he activated all the defensive Magic Artifacts his master had given him, his eyes blazing with fighting spirit.

He raised his Longsword again, pulling out a Magical Treasure with his left hand. Radiating a startling killing intent, Bai Yang charged at Ye Chuxue.

Today, Ye Chuxue had to die!

This was the promise he made to his two junior brothers.

He could not go back on his word.
