Chapter 121: The 8th King General’s Grand Gift

Chapter 121: Chapter 121: The 8th King General’s Grand Gift

Pan Xuechun’s eyes flew wide. She couldn’t believe what she was seeing!

’This scene... It’s just too horrifying!’

He had eliminated all the guards her Patriarch had sent with her in such a short amount of time!

Keep in mind, just one of those guards could have organized a respectable force within the Cyan Ink Barrier!

But Ye Yunyi had just wiped them all out.

Now, watching Ye Yunyi slowly approach, she had no idea what fate awaited her.

Her gaze fell upon Ye Yunyi, who had just slaughtered so many of her guards.

On his hands!

They were stained with so much blood!

It was now pooling...

Dripping!

DRIP.

DRIP.

The sound of each drop of fresh blood striking the ground was deafening in Pan Xuechun’s ears.

"You!"

"What are you going to do?!"

Pan Xuechun kept backing away until her back hit something. She turned to find herself pressed against a giant tree.

’This is it!’

’There’s nowhere left to run!’

Before her!

Ye Yunyi stopped in front of her and squatted down.

A smile touched his lips as he looked at her.

"Looks like you’re doing quite well for yourself."

As he spoke, Ye Yunyi reached for Pan Xuechun’s clothes.

He wiped his blood-stained hand clean on them.

Then, he looked at Pan Xuechun.

"I’m taking you to the Pan Family to demand justice. Let’s see just how we’re going to settle the debt you owe me."

"I never intended to default on my debt," Pan Xuechen started to say.

But the next moment!

His blood-stained hand clamped over her mouth.

"Mmmph!"

The stench of blood instantly overwhelmed her.

Pan Xuechun nearly gagged.

Ye Yunyi then grabbed Pan Xuechun and forced her to lead the way toward the Pan Family estate.

Meanwhile!

Over in the Eighth King General’s quarters, Shangguan Yulan’s eyes narrowed as she read a report. ’What? The Third and Sixth King Generals are also paying attention to Ye Yunyi, and they’ve even sent people to try and make contact with him?’

She hadn’t expected this.

She never thought the Third and Sixth King Generals would also take such an interest in Ye Yunyi.

After all, Ye Yunyi was currently in her jurisdiction.

She had the home-field advantage. If she let the Third or Sixth King Generals take him away to be cultivated...

...that would be a disaster.

Wouldn’t that be a huge slap in the face for her?

’It seems I need to properly engage with Ye Yunyi.’

With that, she summoned Zou Kai.

When Zou Kai arrived, he had no idea why the Eighth King General had summoned him.

"Wait here for me."

The Eighth King General said, then walked toward her private chamber.

A moment later, she emerged with two items.

Zou Kai’s eyes widened and his mouth twitched as he saw them.

’This!’

’This is...!’

In one of the Eighth King General’s hands was an enormous Crystal Core.

Its surface looked as if it were densely packed with stars!

Just by feeling it from a distance, he could sense its terrifying Energy!

This was a Star Level Exotic Beast Crystal Core!

And judging by its size and the Energy it was emitting...

’...it’s probably an Exotic Beast Crystal Core from a Late-Star Stage, Half-Step King Level beast!’

’Terrifying. This is absolutely terrifying!’

In her other hand was a medicinal pill.

It also exuded a rich, medicinal aroma.

Just a single whiff made Zou Kai’s mouth water.

He could feel the vibrant Energy teeming within the pill as well!

’Such precious items!’

’What is all this for?!’

Answering Zou Kai’s unspoken question, the Eighth King General said, "Take these to Ye Yunyi now."

Huh?!

Zou Kai’s mouth twitched instantly.

’Holy hell!’

’What’s gotten into the Eighth King General?!’

’Just giving Ye Yunyi such priceless items!’

’And she seems to be in a real hurry?!’

At that moment, his understanding of Ye Yunyi’s strength and potential reached a new level.

After all, a King General’s judgment of Ye Yunyi was definitely more accurate than his own.

’Could it be that those rumors are true?’

’Does Ye Yunyi really have what it takes to become a King General?!’

Tsk, tsk, tsk!

In that moment, Zou Kai was filled with a mix of envy and jealousy.

"Yes, King General!"

Zou Kai didn’t linger. He took the two items and set off for Ye Yunyi’s manor.

He made his way there with all possible speed.

When he arrived at the manor!

...he saw a crowd of people blocking the entrance.

It was a crowd of Patriarchs!

Zhou Huaiwei and the others were trying to host them.

Just as he got closer...

...Zou Kai heard the voices of the various Patriarchs.

"Where is Lord Ye? This is my daughter; she admires Lord Ye greatly! I brought her here today to ask if Lord Ye would take a liking to her. If he does, we can draw up a marriage contract today!"

"Is Lord Ye not home? My daughter has heard of his great deeds and has lost her appetite completely. She just wants to be by Lord Ye’s side!"

"Sigh! My daughter’s the same. I couldn’t talk her out of it, so I brought her over as well."

"Move aside, all of you! I’m here to see Lord Ye, too!"

...

On and on the Patriarchs went.

Zou Kai was speechless.

’You old foxes,’ he thought. ’If you want to offer up your daughters to get in Ye Yunyi’s good graces, just say so. Why make it sound so noble?’

’So silver-tongued, every one of them.’

In that instant, Zou Kai began to understand Ye Yunyi.

If so many Patriarchs were bringing so many beautiful women to his door every day, he wouldn’t be able to resist either. He’d inevitably end up with a new "bride" every night!

But!

To be able to improve his strength so quickly while living the life of a different groom every night...

If he were to dedicate himself solely to cultivation, what would Ye Yunyi’s accomplishments be by now?

The mere thought made Zou Kai’s scalp tingle. Could he have become a King General by now?

’It’s very possible!’

With that thought, Zou Kai pushed forward. "Make way!"

His shout made many of the Patriarchs turn to look at him, their brows furrowing.

’This guy!’

’Who does he think he is?’

’Some rough-looking guy, shows up all by himself without even a beautiful woman to offer!’

And with that, they ignored him.

Zou Kai looked at the crowd helplessly. Then he glanced past them and froze.

’Whoa, there’s even a beautiful Caucasian girl in there?’

Zou Kai stared. The girl had distinctly Caucasian features, with golden-blonde hair and eyes that seemed to sparkle with a life of their own.

Her skin was as white as snow and her figure was slender—a truly rare beauty.

She embodied a distinctly Western ideal of beauty.

It was a completely different concept from the beauty of the women from the East.

’The Golden Lion King, huh?’ he thought. ’Damn, it’s like all the nations of the world are coming to pay tribute to him!’

"Make way!" Zou Kai roared. "I was sent by the Eighth King General to deliver something to Lord Ye!"

The crowd trembled at his roar.

They looked at Zou Kai again, their expressions changing.

’The Eighth King General sent something to Lord Ye, too?’

This was even more proof of Lord Ye’s formidable power and extraordinary status!

’Even the Eighth King General is trying to win him over!’

Nearby, Lü Fang, Yu Yan, and a few of the other formerly wanted women who were listening were also stunned.

’The Eighth King General is sending gifts, too?’

’That’s a King General!’

The other girls were unfamiliar with the term, but while they didn’t have a clear concept of what it meant, they knew it signified someone extraordinary.
