Chapter 158: Chapter 158 Save Me, I Fell into a Stinky Ditch

”Don’t worry, Qin Qing. Little brother can kill her with ease.” An Dongye had great confidence in Ye Xiu’s strength; after all, she had personally witnessed him instantly kill the Great Grandmaster Ito Meiya. However, she still offered a reminder, ”Little brother, this woman is very strong, a peak Great Grandmaster at the very least. Don’t let your guard down.”

Hearing An Dongye’s words and her rough estimate of Dragon Hollyhock’s strength, Qin Qing felt less nervous. Her anxiety had stemmed mainly from the contemptuous look Ye Xiu was giving his opponent.

”Hmph, let’s not even discuss whether I’m a peak Great Grandmaster. Even if I were, do you really think you could rescue Qin Qing from me, Ye Xiu?” Dragon Hollyhock asked mockingly.

In her view, she didn’t need to reveal her full power. The strength of a Great Grandmaster was more than enough to make Ye Xiu surrender without a fight.

”Dragon Hollyhock, be good now. Let Qin Qing go. I really don’t want to kill you,” Ye Xiu said, coaxing her as if she were a child.

”Shut up!” Dragon Hollyhock roared, her patience completely gone. She hissed viciously, ”Ye Xiu, I’ll give you one more minute. If you don’t cut off your left arm, hand it over, and cripple your own Cultivation, I’ll slice Qin Qing up, one cut at a time.”

”Alas,” Ye Xiu sighed, looking to the heavens. ”Ever since I was a child, I’ve aspired to be a doctor who saves lives and heals the wounded. Why must so many people force me to become a butcher?”

”Enough with the dramatics! Hurry up and... what the...”

Just as Dragon Hollyhock was about to urge him again, her vision blurred. Ye Xiu was gone, and so was Qin Qing, whom she had held hostage.

The next moment, Ye Xiu appeared five meters in front of her, holding Qin Qing in his arms.

”This...”

It wasn’t just Dragon Hollyhock who was stunned. An Dongye, Qin Qing, Feng Wanli, and the staff were all baffled.

No one had seen how Ye Xiu moved. How had he so easily rescued Qin Qing from Dragon Hollyhock’s grasp and reappeared five meters away?

An Dongye, in particular, was in disbelief. Her speed surpassed even a War God’s, yet she hadn’t seen the trajectory of Ye Xiu’s movement. In fact, she hadn’t seen any movement at all.

It was as if Time itself had suddenly stopped. Ye Xiu had saved Qin Qing within that frozen moment, and then Time resumed its normal flow.

”Impossible, this is impossible...” Dragon Hollyhock looked as if she had seen a ghost, her face pale and her body trembling uncontrollably. ”Impossible! You’re just a Great Grandmaster! How can you be so fast?”

”Your ignorance and arrogance have limited your perception,” Ye Xiu said as he set Qin Qing down. ”You guys go on ahead to the hunting grounds. I need to have a little chat with Dragon Hollyhock.”

”Okay!” Qin Qing nodded. At that moment, her admiration for Ye Xiu was boundless. Her man was this powerful. So handsome!

”Trying to leave? First, you’ll have to ask my sword.”

Dragon Hollyhock charged toward Qin Qing, sword in hand.

THUMP!

Ye Xiu appeared behind Dragon Hollyhock out of nowhere, kicking her in the backside and sending her sprawling face-first into the dirt.

”Why can’t you just listen? Stay down and don’t move!”

Ye Xiu straddled Dragon Hollyhock, sitting on her back as he casually tossed her sword to Qin Qing.

”This is impossible... this is impossible...” Dragon Hollyhock muttered, still lying on the ground, unwilling to believe Ye Xiu was so much stronger than her.

”Nothing is impossible. Even if the Long Family’s patriarch came, I could crush him with ease. What makes you think you can prance around in front of me?” Ye Xiu sighed as he watched Qin Qing and the others walk into the distance.

”What?” Dragon Hollyhock exclaimed. ”You... how do you know about the Long Family? You...”

”What’s so surprising?” Ye Xiu said. ”Did you think you were well hidden? The truth is, I know far more than you can possibly imagine.”

”What else do you know?”

”I know you’re from the Long Family.

”I also know it was Long Bo who sent people to Panlong Pavilion in Yunluo City to post the one hundred million Gold Reward, just like the one the Yagyu family posted in Sang Jing.

”Furthermore, I know it was you who brought Kuroki Suzu here to deal with me.

”And of course, I know that ten years ago, it was the Long Family pulling the strings, having Zheng Yiwen plot to frame me.

”In short, everything you think is a secret... I know it all.”

Hearing this, Dragon Hollyhock’s scalp tingled. Had Ye Xiu been watching her flounder around like a spectator all this time?

She asked, ”How... how did you find all this out?”

Ye Xiu sneered. ”Not only do I know all this, but I also killed Long Bo and every single Long Family spy lurking in Jin Ye City. Moreover, the two groups Kuroki Suzu brought with her were also eliminated by my people. Of course, An Dongye killed most of the first group.

”I also know you’ve been trying to get pregnant with my child to confirm if I’m the person you’re looking for.”

After hearing Ye Xiu’s words, Dragon Hollyhock looked as if she’d been struck by lightning.

At this moment, she felt completely exposed, as if she were standing naked before him. No, Ye Xiu had seen through her long ago. He just never called her out, deliberately watching her perform from a God’s-eye view. She had foolishly thought her identity was perfectly concealed, even sending him money every day. It turned out he had been playing her all along.

”You are...”

Suddenly, Dragon Hollyhock realized something. She exclaimed in shock, ”You... you’re the one we’ve been looking for?”

”That’s right,” Ye Xiu nodded. ”Now you can call the Long Family and tell them I’m the person you’ve been searching for.”

”Aren’t you afraid the Long Family will send their elites to kill you?” Dragon Hollyhock asked.

”I also want to eradicate the Long Family,” Ye Xiu replied. ”Why don’t you just tell me where the Long Family is? It’ll save them the travel expenses of sending people to kill me. I can just go there and offer up my head myself.”

”Arrogant!” Dragon Hollyhock scoffed. ”Forget one of you; even a hundred of you would be no match for the Long Family.”

”Then hurry up and call them. Have them send someone to kill me,” Ye Xiu urged.

”Fine, I’ll grant you your wish!”

Lying on the ground, Dragon Hollyhock struggled to take out her phone. She accessed a special webpage and went through multiple security checks: a password, a retina scan, facial recognition, and finally, a fingerprint scan. Only then did her phone begin to ring.

So advanced? Ye Xiu was taken aback.

He snatched her phone and perfectly imitated her voice. ”Quick, come save me! I... I fell into a stinky sewer! Glug... glug...”

With that, he crushed the phone in his hand.

Dragon Hollyhock was dumbfounded. Ye Xiu could imitate her voice so perfectly that even she thought she was the one who had spoken. This guy is a complete monster!

Then, confusion set in. ”You... you didn’t ask me to tell the Long Family that you’re the person they’ve been looking for?”

”You really are dense,” Ye Xiu said. ”Why would I let the Long Family know I’m that person? I’ll trick them into sending more people to keep investigating. Then, I’ll just slowly pick them off, one by one.”
