Chapter 18: The Perfect Seed
The "thud thud" sounds were the noise of Luo Qingyao’s fists striking Yu Xian’er’s body!
Even Yun Yi, who had mentally prepared himself, was dumbfounded as he watched the scene unfold.
He rubbed his forehead helplessly. His little Yao Yao really was a girl who never played by the rules.
When Luo Qingyao deliberately let Yu Xian’er catch her, Yun Yi already suspected she had designs on Yu Xian’er, which was why he stopped Feng Qingjue from intervening and simultaneously used Feng Qingjue to distract Yu Qingting, creating an opportunity for Luo Qingyao.
But what he never expected was that this girl would actually pin down the ethereal Yu Immortal, known for being aloof and otherworldly, and rain down punches on her!
This...
Well, Yun Yi had to admit that from the moment he met Yao Yao, his usually calm, indifferent, and unruffled heart had begun to surge with fierce passion and grandeur.
Even Yu Qingting was stunned. Her most prized disciple, the one she had painstakingly tried to promote, was being mercilessly beaten by the very “waste” she despised.
How much time had passed? Her most beloved disciple and her youngest closed-door apprentice were both defeated by someone she had always looked down upon!
After his initial shock, Feng Qingjue’s mind darkened. It seemed that Yun Yi’s blocking of him was because he knew Luo Qingyao would never suffer injustice. The depth of understanding Yun Yi had about this woman meant Luo Qingyao was truly one of a kind.
Recalling this, Feng Qingjue’s thoughts drifted to what the ancestor had once said about the perfect seed…
Finally, Yun Yi could no longer contain himself. He burst into hearty laughter as he gazed at the scene before him. “Ha ha… well done!”
His Yao Yao should be strong like this—only to bully others, never to be bullied!
Who cared about any Jade Pure Palace immortal maiden? If provoked, she must be beaten down. This was the kind of qualified daughter-in-law for the Yun family!
Yu Qingting, unable to bear it any longer, stepped forward to rescue Yu Xian’er, but was stopped by Yun Yi.
Crossing his arms, Yun Yi’s smile was wicked and arrogant, his tone dripping with mockery. “Tsk tsk… hmm, what’s wrong with the Jade Immortal? She clearly charged forward to harm someone, wielding the Jade Pure Palace’s treasured Spirit-Sealing Silk against a rootless waste. Yet, how did she end up getting beaten?”
Yu Qingting’s face paled, fire blazing in her eyes. “Yun Yi, don’t go too far!”
Yun Yi raised an eyebrow, grinning even more devilishly. “I’ve always liked going too far. Is that news to you, Palace Master Yu?”
“You—!” Yu Qingting was flustered but dared not confront Yun Yi, knowing she could not defeat him.
Yet Yun Yi acted as if he hadn’t noticed her anger. Suddenly slapping his forehead, he abandoned his earlier arrogance and wore an expression of guilt mixed with frustration. “Ah, my apologies. How could I speak the truth so bluntly? After all, she is the Jade Pure Palace’s brightest young talent! Her cultivation and achievements represent the entire palace! But I truly don’t understand—how could the Jade Pure Palace’s top new generation figure lose to a mere waste? Not only did she lose the Spirit-Sealing Silk, but she also ended up bruised and battered. Could it be that the Jade Pure Palace is all show and no substance? Just smoke and mirrors? Not worth a mention?”
With every word Yun Yi spoke, Yu Qingting’s face grew paler and paler until, in the end, her once stunning visage looked almost like a grotesque mask.
