Release the Heroine, Let Me Handle This

Chapter 199: The Feng Ya Xianzi Style Sarcasm [Part 3]

Because of that chant, ‘Ye Meijing’ lost interest in shouting. After all, no matter how you rounded it, Ye Wenxin was still one of the demonic cultivators everyone in the Xian Sect wanted to hunt down.

Feng Ya Xianzi seemed utterly indifferent, making ‘Ye Meijing’ suspect that this Feng Ya Xianzi was only interested in growing stronger, with no other thoughts beyond that goal.

"Shifu, is there anything else you want besides ascending?" In the midst of the uproar, ‘Ye Meijing’ asked loudly, leaning close to Feng Ya Xianzi's ear.

Feng Ya Xianzi looked puzzled, glancing at the lively surroundings, unsure why ‘Ye Meijing’ would ask something so out of sync with the atmosphere.

"Some people seek strength to avoid being bullied. Some desire wealth because they're scared of poverty. Shifu, if you're aiming for ascension, don't tell me it's also out of fear," ‘Ye Meijing’ added. They sat amidst the crowd, yet seemed out of place.

After a brief hesitation, Feng Ya Xianzi provided an answer, "Perhaps, I just want to travel around."

She seemed to genuinely ponder ‘Ye Meijing’s’ question, but her answer surprised ‘Ye Meijing’.

"Don’t you have the freedom to go wherever you want?"

"It's because it's too easy that I don't want to do it," Feng Ya Xianzi replied, leaving ‘Ye Meijing’ frustrated, cursing this peculiar Feng Ya Xianzi who not only fled but sought the most challenging paths.

‘Ye Meijing’ seized the opportunity to suggest Feng Ya Xianzi leave Cangyu Sect. "That's even simpler. You could cause some trouble and leave Cangyu Sect. Being hunted down every day would add a lot of difficulty."

Feng Ya Xianzi replied, "They can't defeat me, so where's the difficulty?"

Though her tone remained calm, her words were infuriating. With Feng Ya Xianzi's skills, there truly was no match for her in this land. To others, it was a world of hellish difficulty, but to Feng Ya Xianzi, everyone was a small player, easily defeated with one strike.

The more ‘Ye Meijing’ thought, the more she envied, unable to resist adding, "Even so, you still haven't ascended."

Feng Ya Xianzi said nothing, merely extending her hand. Reflexively, ‘Ye Meijing’ closed her eyes, expecting Feng Ya Xianzi to be irritated, but she simply patted ‘Ye Meijing's’ hair, leaving a simple remark.

"You don't understand."

‘Ye Meijing’ grew even more frustrated, watching as Feng Ya Xianzi stood up while the announcer called Ye Wenxin's name.

"Next match, Ye Wenxin versus Long Qing'er."

Hearing Long Qing'er's name surprised ‘Ye Meijing’. She thought Cangyu Sect wouldn't let any elites participate, yet here was Long Qing'er.

Yet, seeing Feng Ya Xianzi as Ye Wenxin facing Long Qing'er, ‘Ye Meijing’ felt conflicted.

On one side was Feng Ya Xianzi, whom she had resented for years, and on the other was her best friend's niece. No matter how she looked at it, Long Qing'er didn't stand a chance. The only person capable of arranging such a crazy match was someone specific.

‘Ye Meijing’ shifted her gaze to the high platform, where Princess Long Qingyue sat in her wheelchair. She met ‘Ye Meijing's’ eyes and waved.

The gesture seemed to carry a message, but ‘Ye Meijing’ felt it wasn't a good one. Considering Long Qingyue's attitude towards Long Qing'er, ‘Ye Meijing’ believed Long Qingyue deliberately set up this encounter to curb her niece's arrogance.

"This isn't just putting out a fire; it's plunging into the Ice Age."

Realizing Long Qingyue's harsh treatment of her own niece, ‘Ye Meijing’ smirked bitterly, turning her attention to the stage.

The host announced the start of the match, and the two contestants bowed respectfully. In an instant, Long Qing'er charged at Feng Ya Xianzi.

Feng Ya Xianzi seemed unhurried. She didn't even use the dagger ‘Ye Meijing’ had given her for show, evading with ease.

Long Qing'er quickly sensed her opponent's formidable strength. She dared not be careless, unleashing her sword skills. The sword intent was palpable, chilling those nearby.

Though only an inner disciple, Long Qing'er received treatment equivalent to a true disciple. With support from her backing, she had learned numerous secret techniques, her power unfathomable.

Yet, no matter how strong or imposing her sword aura, she was no match for the person before her. Long Qing'er grew anxious, unable to comprehend what kind of monster Ye Wenxin had brought back.

As her true qi depleted rapidly, the audience watched Long Qing'er's struggle in disbelief, unaware of what kind of monster Ye Wenxin truly was, his strength unfathomable.

‘Ye Meijing’ felt increasingly sympathetic. If she faced Feng Ya Xianzi on stage, she wondered if she'd end up like Long Qing'er.

Yet, she sensed Feng Ya Xianzi was being gentle with Long Qing'er, merely exhausting her true qi without intending harm.

Unaware of Feng Ya Xianzi's restraint, Long Qing'er felt humiliated, especially in front of her aunt Long Qingyue. Once confident in her cultivation, she now realized her limitations, feeling both hatred for her own inadequacy and a desire to grow stronger.

"Concede," Feng Ya Xianzi said, watching Long Qing'er's pitiful state.

Long Qing'er bit her lip, using her sword to support herself. She couldn't lose, especially not in front of her aunt. Yet, the overwhelming strength of her opponent left her at a loss.

The metallic taste of blood grew stronger, and Long Qing'er recalled a technique she'd read about. She forced out a drop of essence blood, preparing for a final desperate attack.

‘Ye Meijing’ had been watching the battle but was shocked by Long Qing'er's determination. Seeing her blood, ‘Ye Meijing’ remembered the precious gift Long Qing'er had given her.

Ignoring the ongoing match, ‘Ye Meijing’ shouted to Feng Ya Xianzi, "Ye Wenxin, stop her..."

But before she could finish, a massive explosion engulfed the stage, consuming both Feng Ya Xianzi and Long Qing'er.
