Chapter 581: Chapter 520: Go Back on One’s Word, Bullying by Throwing One’s Weight Around

"You..."

When Ye Fan’s words echoed in his ear, Emperor Bai abruptly stopped in his tracks, glaring at Ye Fan with murderous intensity, yet he was powerless to refute.

After all, he had agreed to the bet proposed by Ye Fan, and that last statement was uttered by himself!

"Heh heh... Emperor Bai, you are the heir to the Sword King’s legacy, known as the Little Saber King, and hailed as the leader of the younger generation in the Hua Xia Cultivation World, yet now you plan to go against the agreement made before the duel. I feel ashamed for your master!" Not only did Ye Fan ignore Emperor Bai’s icy gaze, but he also smirked mockingly.

"Ye Family’s bastard, are you seeking death?"

Emperor Bai was already brooding over not having killed Ye Fan with a single blow, and now, seeing Ye Fan repeatedly bringing up the wager and mocking both him and his master, he was uncontrollably furious, feeling an overwhelming urge to immediately swing his treasure sword and reduce Ye Fan to a pile of flesh and blood.

"It’s not that I’m seeking death, it’s just that you are too disgraceful—if I were you, I would have long bought a block of tofu to crash into and die, saving myself from the embarrassment of living!"

Remembering Emperor Bai’s earlier arrogance and how he had humiliated both himself and his master, and seeing how Emperor Bai was looking to deny the fact, Ye Fan immediately treated him with a taste of his own medicine. Moreover, he deliberately collected his Qi in his Dantian, making his voice resonate across the entire plaza of the Tian Shan Sword Sect.

"You..."

Forced into silence, Emperor Bai turned ashen, his Adam’s apple moving as he struggled to speak but managed no words.

"Both Master Wu Yin and Sect Leader Cang are witnesses. Do you intend to deny the bet??" Ye Fan pressed on, continuing to fiercely humiliate Emperor Bai.

"You’re courting death!!"

Facing another round of humiliation from Ye Fan, Emperor Bai’s anger peaked. He let out a furious shout and subconsciously raised the Bloodthirsty Mad Blade.

"Young man, being too impulsive is not a good thing."

Seeming to sense that Emperor Bai was about to take action, Master Wu Yin suddenly spoke up. His voice was soft, his tone as calm as still water, yet it poured over Emperor Bai like the frigid waters of the Turquoise Pool, dousing the rage inside him.

The next moment.

Emperor Bai withdrew the Bloodthirsty Mad Blade he was about to swing!

For his rationality told him that, should he dare to strike at Ye Fan, Master Wu Yin would certainly intervene, and it was very likely that she would act to discipline him!

Although he was arrogant, he knew full well that against Master Wu Yin, ranked third on the Dragon Ranking, his own strength was not even worth mentioning.

"As long as you can catch my blade, not to mention slapping my own face, I will apologize to you and your master, even if it means kneeling and calling you grandfather—Emperor Bai, that was what you said to Xiao Fan earlier."

"I suggest you find a coffin now to prepare to collect his corpse—which will be much better for him—that’s what you said to me just now." Sensing that Emperor Bai’s anger had faded, Master Wu Yin continued to speak, "Since you dared to boast, why not have the courage to fulfill the agreement?"

"..."

Emperor Bai had nothing to say, completely wilting like frostbitten eggplants, his previous arrogance completely vanished, replaced by a sense of shame he had never felt before.

"Master Wu Yin, even if Chu Xuanji’s disciple just now luckily dodged Little Emperor’s strike, it does not mean that his strength is on par with Little Emperor’s—if we continue the fight, within three moves, Little Emperor will surely kill him..." Seeing Emperor Bai’s frustration, Jie Dao suddenly spoke, his tone deep and his face grim.

However—

Before he could finish his words, Ye Fan interrupted with a sneer: "I don’t know if I’ll be killed by your disciple within three moves, all I know is that I’ve just caught your disciple’s blow unscathed. And according to the prior agreement of the duel, your disciple must slap himself ten times and apologize to my master!"

"Young man, killing is nothing more than a nod of the head, and where you can spare someone, you should."

Jie Dao’s gaze was cold as he stared at Ye Fan, like a venomous snake eyeing its prey, the terrifying aura was like a mountain pressing down on Ye Fan’s heart, not only rendering him unable to speak but even making his breathing difficult.

"Humph!"

Seeing Jie Dao using his pressure to bully, Master Wu Yin raised her eyebrows and coldly snorted, stepping in front of Ye Fan, which immediately lifted the oppressive force from him.

Watching this scene, Jie Dao’s pupils abruptly contracted, and a hint of murderous intent surfaced on him.

Hmm?

Feeling the killing intent from Jie Dao, Cang Bo, standing to the side, decided to feign ignorance and keep out of the affair after some thought.

"As the saying goes, ’A crooked beam makes a crooked rafter.’ I was originally curious why Emperor Bai, as the leader among the younger generation of the Hua Xia Cultivation World, could be so shameless. It turns out he’s just following in your footsteps!"

Ye Fan quickly steadied his mind and spoke again, his voice full of anger.

Not only had Emperor Bai refused to honor the agreement, but Jie Dao was also oppressing him with his aura...

This was just too much bullying!

"Emperor Bai, don’t think that with your master backing you, you can do whatever you want—if today you do not honor the agreement, you will definitely not leave Tian Shan!"

Sensing Ye Fan’s anger, Master Wu Yin appeared to understand the frustration and anger in his heart and chose to stand up for Ye Fan.

At this moment, her expression was no longer as calm as before.

A hint of anger could be detected in her voice, her eyebrows tightly furrowed.

"Is that so?"

Jie Dao was fuming, his tone as cold as ice.

For one thing, if Emperor Bai honored the bet, slapping his own face and apologizing to Chu Xuanji and Ye Fan, both Emperor Bai and he would become a joke in the Cultivation World.

Furthermore, Bodhi Wuyin was the person he had once cherished, and now she still loved his rival and enemy, Chu Xuanji, not to mention that she was willing to fight him in order to defend Ye Fan!

This felt like a sharp dagger stabbing into the most vulnerable part of his heart, driving his hatred for Bodhi Wuyin to climb wildly.

"Yes."

Bodhi Wuyin slowly uttered a word, her attitude very resolute, like a Buddha statue on the verge of anger.

Whoosh!

Upon hearing Bodhi Wuyin’s words again, Jie Dao’s rage completely erupted. With a wave of his hand, the Bloodthirsty Mad Blade flew out of Emperor Bai’s hand, enveloped by a swirl of Gang Qi, and landed in his grip.

With the Bloodthirsty Mad Blade in hand, Jie Dao’s aura skyrocketed suddenly, like a sharp treasure sword, unrivaled in its edge!

Hmm?

Feeling Jie Dao’s rapidly climbing momentum and seeing him holding the Bloodthirsty Mad Blade with his hair flying, like a Killing God descending into the world, Cang Bo was initially taken aback but then understood Jie Dao’s intentions.

At this point, even if Jie Dao helped Emperor Bai break the pre-duel agreement, he could not allow Emperor Bai to slap himself in the face in front of the entire Tian Shan Sword Sect by apologizing to Chu Xuanji and Ye Fan.

Because the former would only tarnish Jie Dao’s reputation with labels such as protecting the short and bullying by power, while the latter was, to him, the ultimate humiliation!

"Bodhi Wuyin, are you sure you want to engage in combat with me for his sake?"

As if to confirm Cang Bo’s guess, Jie Dao’s aura reached its peak, his killing intent overwhelming, as he stared coldly at Bodhi Wuyin.

No answer.

Bodhi Wuyin’s eyebrows were deeply furrowed, forming the character for ’river’ on her forehead.

Through sensing the breath, she was well aware that Jie Dao’s cultivation was only slightly weaker than hers.

In terms of martial arts, Jie Dao’s self-created high-level martial arts ’Blood Shadow Saber Technique’ was not much inferior to her own ’Bodhi Skill’; in terms of combat skills and experience, he was even more superior!

Now, with Jie Dao holding the world’s only high-level magical artifact, the Bloodthirsty Mad Blade, it would be difficult for her to overcome him, let alone suppress him.

Under these circumstances, if she were to confront Jie Dao and failed to suppress him, should Emperor Bai take the opportunity to strike at Ye Fan, she would be unable to look after Ye Fan, and he would inevitably be killed by Emperor Bai!

"Master Bodhi, since Jie Dao and Emperor Bai are determined to go back on their word and lose face, then let them be,"

Sensing the terrifying aura from Jie Dao and seeing Bodhi Wuyin remain indifferent, Ye Fan subconsciously thought Bodhi Wuyin had no certainty of defeating Jie Dao, and considering she had already done enough for him, he could not let her risk her life against Jie Dao for his sake and could only let Emperor Bai leave.

However—

Understanding though he did, as the words fell, his heart was filled with unwillingness and frustration; he could only clench his teeth and fists tightly, suppressing the resentment and frustration, silently accepting it all.

"Ye Family’s bastard, you barely blocked one of my strikes and yet are so ignorant of your place, I think you and that old scoundrel Chu Xuanji are the real embarrassments, not my master and me!"

Watching Bodhi Wuyin reluctant to act and Ye Fan yielding, Emperor Bai regained his arrogant demeanor, looking at Ye Fan with disdain and with an air of unquestionable superiority.

"Aren’t you going yet?"

Unlike Emperor Bai, Jie Dao was still haunted by the fact that Emperor Bai had not killed Ye Fan with a single strike and his tone was somewhat discontent.

"Ye Family’s bastard, you were lucky to dodge my strike today, thanks to your fortune. But do not forget, the Qing bang tournament is not limited to a single strike, I hope you don’t cross paths with me then!"

Jie Dao’s words were like a needle, pricking at Emperor Bai’s heart and causing pain. He did not dare to retort, instead venting all his anger on Ye Fan, looking at him as if he were already dead.

"Jie Dao, you and your master are bullying too much!"

Seeing Jie Dao and Emperor Bai not only break their promise but also assume an air of entitlement and bullying, even Bodhi Wuyin, who had long cultivated a tranquil mind, was truly angered!

In her fury, Bodhi Wuyin’s aura soared, becoming more formidable than Jie Dao’s, instantly causing Emperor Bai’s mouth to clamp shut as tightly as a maiden’s legs!

"Hmph, Bodhi Wuyin, even though you are very strong, I’m afraid you can’t stop us, master and pupil,"

Jie Dao said coldly, his face dark as he stepped forward to stand in front of Emperor Bai, locking eyes with Bodhi Wuyin.

As if to intimidate Bodhi Wuyin, as he spoke, Jie Dao deliberately gathered his Qi in his Dantian, his voice booming like a great bell, not only reaching everyone’s ears clearly but also causing the air to resonate and carry the sound far away, lingering for a long time.

"Jie Dao, your mouth really is bigger than your foot odor!"

Following Jie Dao’s last words, another voice arose.

The voice, coming from afar and growing louder, was like rolling thunder, threatening to upend the skies above the Tian Shan Sword Sect!
