“Yes.” Gu Xin Yan nodded her head, thinking that Gu Ying’s expression looked a little strange.
“What did he say to you?” Gu Ying questioned.
“Nothing much….. We were just casually chatting.” Gu Xin Yan knew Gu Ying and Zhuge Yin were at odds with each other, and hence did not feel that there was anything unusual about Gu Ying’s questions.
But Gu Xin Yan’s reply had caused the colour on Gu Ying’s face to turn even darker.
Sure enough, it was just a coincidence…..
Gu Ying silently mocked himself inside for all his delusional suspicions. It had obviously been a plot so full of holes and he had actually believed it for a moment.
Gu Ying sneered inwardly as he thought to himself.
[In this round, no matter what Jun Xie was planning to achieve, he could only say that Zi Jin, the pawn that was used, was a wrong move made by Jun Xie!]
[And right after this, it is time for him to properly show his colours in return.]
Volume 18
Chapter 1744: “Trap or Coincidence (3)”
As Gu Ying was planning how he would be able to settle the score owed to him back at the Zephyr Academy, he was not aware that a nightmare was at the moment silently descending.
There wasn’t a single person inside Zhuge Yin’s room when suddenly, the wardrobe in the room was pushed open soundlessly. Two figures then quietly climbed out from the wardrobe.
Jun Wu Xie came out from the wardrobe, her gaze cold as she stared at the tightly shut door and her mouth arced up into a sneer. Standing at Jun Wu Xie’s side, was not anyone else but Jun Wu Yao.
“As expected, most people are unable to guess what that mind of yours is really thinking.” The ends of Jun Wu Yao’s mouth were tinged with a sliver of mirth as he reached his hand out to stroke at Jun Wu Xie’s hair.
Not even in his dreams would Gu Ying have thought that when he had entered that room earlier, Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao had already been hidden within that large wardrobe!
Jun Wu Xie lifted an eyebrow and then went walking towards the side of the bed. When she came to the bedside, she suddenly squatted down and reached her hand under the bed.
The sound of dragging came from underneath the bed and Jun Wu Xie suddenly tugged hard!
To pull an entire person out from under the bed!
Laying there on the ground an unmoving heap was no one else but the resident on this very room!
Zhuge Yin!
At that moment, Zhuge Yin’s eyes were tightly closed as he lay stiffly on the ground, not reacting in the slightest, like he was sound asleep.
“Have Yue Yi brought out.” Jun Wu Xie stood up as she stared at Zhuge Yin who lay there like a dead pig, and then turning to Jun Wu Yao to say.
Jun Wu Yao shrugged his shoulders and walked over to stand beside a wooden box. The wooden box was meant for the youths staying here to store their luggage and weapons and it was extremely spacious. But when Jun Wu Yao opened the box, it revealed only the figure of Yue Yi who was seated in there.
There was quite a bit of bandages wrapped around Yue Yi and because he was still unable to move about freely, he could only lie halfway back within the box to hide. When he saw the box being opened, he endured the pain to sit himself up, his face contorting up in pain.
It was just about an hour ago when Jun Wu had suddenly taken him out from his room. And from the outside of the lofts, he had quickly been brought to come to Zhuge Yin’s window. Everything that happened after that, had caused Yue Yi to still be unable to fully digest it all.
At that moment, he had only seen that man who had never departed from Jun Wu’s shadow all this time breaking in through the window at extremely high speed, and Zhuge Yin and a young girl from the Dragon Slayers Palace who had been seated inside the room were engaged in conversation. Zhuge Yin did not even have time to react when he was struck unconscious with a single palm strike by the man.
Yue Yi had still not fully understood everything that was happening when he was picked up by Ju Wu and brought inside the room. After that, before he could even say anything, he was placed into the large box. Before the wooden box was shut, he saw with his own eyes Jun Wu stuffing an elixir into Zhuge Yin’s mouth, and he then saw the completely knocked out Zhuge Yin being kicked under the bed by that young girl wearing the Dragon Slayers Palace’s uniform.
After the wooden box was shut, Yue Yi did not dare to make a single sound, his mind whirling with everything that had just happened.
Jun Wu had really come seeking revenge on Zhuge Yin!
And everything had happened in a flash.
“Young….. Young Master Jun….. What are you….. thinking of doing here?” Yue Yi still had not recovered his senses as he stared in a daze at Zhuge Yin lying on the floor, his mind a complete blank.
Jun Wu Xie raised a foot and stepped upon Zhuge Yin’s abdomen. She tilted her head slightly to the side, to look at Yue Yi’s face that was covered in shock.
“What am I doing? Just exacting revenge.”
Jun Wu’s words startled Yue Yi.
Jun Wu had indeed mentioned to him about seeking revenge upon Zhuge Yin before, but…..
Volume 18
Chapter 1745: “Kneel (1)”
Jun Wu had indeed mentioned to him about seeking revenge upon Zhuge Yin before, but…..
Even if you beat Yue Yi to death, he would not have thought that Jun Wu could actually….. act so swiftly!
From the time that Jun Wu had told him about exacting revenge upon Zhuge Yin till now, it had only been an hour’s time. Yue Yi had actually been thinking that for Jun Wu to achieve what he seeked, it would still need a good period of planning. But….. he had not even yet understood what he was required to do and Jun Wu had already gotten Zhuge Yin dealt with!
Yue Yi could not help but feel rather stunned by it all.
This Young Master Jun really….. struck like thunder and quick as lightning!
“You are going to….. proceed with the plan right now?” Yue Yi could not help but recall about the elixir that Jun Wu had fed Zhuge Yin with. Could it be the kind that Jun Wu mentioned before, that kind of….. drug?
Jun Wu Xie nodded her head slightly.
Yue Yo drew in a deep breath. “We are going to make Zhuge Yin go find Gu Xin Yan now and then force Gu Ying to come in?”
According to the plot Jun Wu had planned, the next step after this was to invite the target to walk into the boiling vat.
However, this time, Jun Wu Xie shook her head.
“Gu Ying had already come and left.”
“What?” Yue Yi was slightly taken aback.
Jun Wu Xie walked over to the side and picked up a tea pot from the table. She then slowly went over to stand beside Zhuge Yin and poured the entire pot of cold tea over onto his face.
Zhuge Yin sputtered awake in shock and his eyes sprung wide open!
However, the scene that met his eyes caused half of his heart to turn cold…..
[Shadow Moon Palace!]
[Why had this kid suddenly appeared in his room?]
Zhuge Yin could only remember that he was discussing something with Fei Yan when he suddenly heard a strange crash. And before he could turn his head towards the sound, he had blacked out and did not know what happened after that.
When Zhuge Yin woke up, the first thing he saw was Jun Wu Xie standing right over him.
“Yargh! !” Overcome with shock, Zhuge Yin immediately wanted to sit up and shout out. But when he pushed himself up to a sitting position, he suddenly discovered that besides the raspy sound of “yargh”, his mouth was unable to say a single word. His throat felt like he had swallowed burning charcoal, dry and parched with a searing heat. His eyes widened as he clutched at his throat, his gaze fearful as he stared fixedly at Jun Wu Xie while sitting on the floor.
“There’s no need to waste your effort. You will not be able to say anything at all.” Jun Wu Xie said as she stared at the highly startled Zhuge Yin, and her eyes flashed
with a chilling glint. She then walked slowly to sit upon a chair at the side, crossing her slender legs together and then propping her chin up with a hand, she just watched the wretched looking Zhuge Yin.
“Yargh! Yargh! !” Fear slowly spread within Zhuge Yin’s heart as he stared in fury at Jun Wu Xie, wanting to stand up but suddenly discovering that his legs felt like they had lost all feeling, and he was unable to move them in the slightest.
His mouth was unable to speak, and his legs were unable to move.
Zhuge Yin had never met with anything so frightening and what terrified him the most was the person sitting right before him, the cold and expressionless Jun Wu Xie.
“Didn’t you love to make people kneel? Then today, you can enjoy kneeling yourself.” Jun Wu Xie put a finger under Jun Wu Yao’s chin to lift it slightly, and the corners of Jun Wu Yao’s curled up into a sinister smile. His wiggled his fingertips and two streaks of black mist suddenly shot towards the stunned Zhuge Yin! To strike him straight onto his kneecaps!
His legs that had lost all feeling suddenly made him feel an excruciating and heart rending pain tear through him, as a tyrannical force pulled at Zhuge Yin’s legs, forcing him to kneel right in front of Jun Wu Xie.
The intense pain immediately caused Zhuge Yin’s face to turn a pale white, as bean sized sweat beads spilled out from his forehead.
Volume 18
Chapter 1746: “Kneel (2)”
“Since the mighty Dragon Slayers Palace’s Young Lord loves having people kneel so much, that enjoying kneeling slowly.” Jun Wu Xie said as she toyed with a pot of flowers placed upon the table lazily, her fingertips gently flicking the emerald green petals. The Pure Grace Palace had prepared highly refined rooms for the guests who had come for the birthday celebrations, and the rooms were comfortably furnished. But no matter how perfectly they had been prepared, it was unable to dispel the terror that was wrecking at Zhuge Yin at that moment. At that moment, he really wasn’t in the mood to admire any greenery.
Zhuge Yin knelt on the ground as his body shook. In this loft building that he was in, it was completely filled with the Dragon Slayers Palace’s disciples. Staying just next door, was one of the most talented disciples of the Dragon Slayers Palace who doubled as his bodyguard, accompanying Zhuge Yin on this trip to the Pure Grace Palace.
As long as there was any strange phenomenon, that person would rush straight in here.
But at that time, Zhuge Yin could not even shout out a single word, though he knew he only need to raise an alarm in the slightest and help would come. But alas, even that last hope was crushed right before him, that slightest sliver of light that was so close, completely denied.
The formless terror shrouded Zhuge Yin’s heart. Never in his dreams would he expect that a disciple of the Shadow Moon Palace would dare be so audacious!
“Yargh! Yargh…..” Zhuge Yin summoned up all his strength to try to make a sound, but that shout came out even weaker than a newborn kitten’s meowing.
“Scared?” Jun Wu Xie looked on indifferently at Zhuge Yin’s pale face. Not too long ago, this face had been filled with such arrogance and glee, as he stood egotistically upon that arena platform, his foot stepped upon Yue Yi, subjecting him to wilful torment and ridicule.
And today, everything had been turned completely around.
“Yargh…..” Zhuge Yin was shaking more and more violently. He did not know what Jun Wu Xie was going to do, but the wretched state he was in filled him with fear. He really did not understand how he could have fallen into this trap, as with the kind of powers he had, not just anybody would be able to sneak a attack past him that easily.
But against all expectations, the most impossible thing that could happen had occured right now!
“Help Yue Yi over here.” Jun Wu Xie said expressionlessly. An eyebrow on Jun Wu Yao’s face arched up, but he did not move his feet at all, but with a wave of his hand, a cloud of black mist flew out from his palm, to shoot towards Yue Yi. However, completely unlike the brutal way it had been for Zhuge Yin, the cloud of black mist gently swirled around Yue Yi, as it lifted Yue Yi out from the wooden box.
Jun Wu Xie pulled out a flexible whip from her Cosmos Sack. The material of the whip was a little special, not made from leather like regular whips, but instead used a tough and highly durable kind of vine. In between the crisscrossing vines along the whip, it was filled with little sharp spikes, and Jun Wu Xie placed the flexible whip in Yue Yi’s hand.
Yue Yi stared dazedly at the whip in his hands, and did not understand what was going on for a moment.
“Now, would be a good time for you to exact revenge for yourself.” Jun Wu Xie lifted her eyes up slightly to say, throwing those words upon Yue Yi.
Yue Yi looked up in surprise, and then stared at Zhuge Yin kneeling on the floor, unable to move.
The eyes that Zhuge Yin was staring at Yue Yi with were filled with pure terror. Just how severely he had struck Yue Yi that day, he knew only too well. Although he had not killed Yue Yi on the spot, but with the kind of injuries he inflicted on Yue Yi, even if Yue Yi managed to survive, Yue Yi should still be bedridden and would not be able to move in the slightest. But Yue Yi had appeared right before his eyes now, and was seemingly only slightly hindered in his movements, not looking like he had sustained any severe injuries.
Zhuge Yin was shaking violently from fright. He had wanted to summon his spirit powers, but he discovered that his spirit powers had been sealed up by some strange force, and could not be used at all!
Volume 18
Chapter 1747: “Kneel (3)”
Zhuge Yin then suddenly thought of something. He began to tug persistently at his clothes, lifting his head up and turning his gaze between Jun Wu Xie and Yue Yi, the hand tugging at his clothes continuing to pull hard as he opened his mouth, helplessly making several soft “yargh” sounds.
Yue Yi looked at Zhuge Yin in bewilderment when he suddenly saw that the part of the clothes that Zhuge Yin was tugging at was embroidered with the Dragon Slayers Palace’s insignia.
Zhuge Yin was trying to hint at his identity!
In that instant, Yue Yi hesitated, and he turned to look at Jun Wu with a troubled look on his face.
“He is the Dragon Slayers Palace’s Young Lord. If we are to harm him now…..” Yue Yi could not afford to not consider the implications. He did not want Jun Wu to sink too deep.
Jun Wu Xie’s face was calm as she rested her cheek on one hand. Seeing the way Zhuge Yin was trying to hard to put up a struggle, Jun Wu Xie’s mouth then curled up into a chilling smile.
“Do you really think, after we have done all this, he will still let us live after we release him?”
Jun Wu Xie’s words were just like a whole bucket of cold water, that was splashed onto Zhuge Yin’s body, which also made Yue Yi wake up completely.
That’s right. With Zhuge Yin’s petty nature where he would seek revenge for the smallest grievance, he would definitely harbour intense hatred against them for the humiliation they had wrought upon Zhuge Yin today. Even if they were to stop now, Zhuge Yin would never let the matter rest, and the vengeance he would bring down upon them, would not be merciful to say in the least.
The perpetual pain from the wounds that continued to wreck at his body was a constant reminder to Yue Yi of Zhuge Yin’s brutality. He gripped the flexible whip in his hand tight, as he walked slowly towards Zhuge Yin one step at a time.
The blood immediately drained out from Zhuge Yin’s face as he shook his head in vehement denial, waving his arms frantically. In a state of panic, he even wet his finger from the tea still wet upon his face and then quickly wrote out a series of words on the floor.
“I am the Dragon Slayers Palace’s Young Lord. You must not harm me or the Dragon Slayers Palace will never let you off! Stop now and I will treat it as if nothing had happened today.”
The words were carelessly written in a panicked scribble, but they clearly reflected what Zhuge Yin was trying to say.
>
Yue Yi could not help himself but feel a moment of hesitation rise within his heart.
Zhuge Yin was breathing heavily from nervousness. But just as he thought that he had managed to grasp upon a way out for himself, Jun Wu Xie’s voice rose up chillingly.
“Today, there is no doubt that you will have to die. You do not need to worry that we’ll not be able to get away. A scapegoat for our deeds had already surrendered himself to take the blame.” Jun Wu Xie said unhurriedly, which just sent chills to run through Zhuge Yin.
Zhuge Yin looked at Jun Wu Xie in shock, unable to make himself believe everything Jun Wu Xie had just said.
Jun Wu Xie then said indifferently: “Rest assured, you will be most satisfied with the scapegoat I have chosen. Haven’t you been at loggerheads with Gu Ying from the Blood Fiend Palace? Let him shoulder the responsibility for murdering you and have him suffer the rage of the Dragon Slayers Palace. I think you should be….. satisfied with the arrangements right?”
Jun Wu Xie’s voice was light and soft, but when it fell into Zhuge Yin’s ears, they roared as deafeningly as thunder!
Even Yue Yi at the side was stunned by what he heard.
Gu Ying…..
He had thought that Jun Wu had merely suddenly altered his plans and was secretly feeling glad that Gu Xin Yan would not be harmed in the plot. But he just realized that Jun Wu had never changed a single part of his plan at all, as everything that was happening had been within his calculations all along!
Why had Gu Ying suddenly come to find Zhuge Yin right at this very juncture? Even that, must have been carefully calculated within Jun Wu’s grand scheme of things!
Yue Yi suddenly remembered, that when Jun Wu had mentioned this plan to him, Zi Jin had been in the room. He could still recall the high anxiety Zi Jin had shown when she left, and just how pale her face had been.
A highly shocking realization that formed in Yue Yi’s mind right in that instant!
