CHAPTER 639: CHAPTER 638: PUSHING TOO FAR (HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR’S EVE!)

"Ye Xin, this is outrageous. Are you still a disciple of the Shangqing Sect?"

"If not, so be it!"

Ye Xin’s words were shocking.

The crowd was in an uproar.

The Shangqing Sect held an extremely high position in their hearts.

It was even... higher than the country they stood on.

Now with Ye Xin declaring she wouldn’t be a disciple of the Shangqing Sect, it felt unbelievable to them.

As they saw it, joining the Shangqing Sect was like a step to the heavens, a path to success!

Like a rural kid suddenly being sent to the highest scholarly institute, with a job arranged at a top state department to boot.

But, unexpectedly, Ye Xin couldn’t care less.

She’d rather not be a disciple of the Shangqing Sect!

This left the crowd astonished.

If they also knew that Ye Xin would rather be with Yang Chen living a simple life than coming to the Shangqing Sect, they would have turned green with envy.

Shangyao, hearing this, was surprised yet unusually excited.

He seemed to feel as if he had grasped some sort of handle, pointing at Ye Xin, saying, "You, as a disciple of the Shangqing Sect, dare to say such outrageous things. I will certainly appeal to the Sect Master to see how he will deal with you!"

Ye Xin sneered, "By all means, go ahead!"

Shangyao was taken aback.

Ye Xin’s earlier words, if the Sect Master knew, or even those old stubborn Elders heard, they’d be furious.

No matter how favored Ye Xin was, she would surely be punished according to the sect’s rules.

Where did she get the audacity to be so arrogant?

But Shangyao didn’t know that Ye Xin truly couldn’t care less about the Shangqing Sect. She would rather leave now with Yang Chen and live a little shameless life together.

"However!" Ye Xin’s tone changed abruptly, her voice turning cold as she glared at Shangyao, "Let me first avenge my husband!"

Upon hearing the term ’husband’, who knows how many hearts broke...

As soon as Ye Xin’s words fell, the colorful ribbon in her hand snapped toward Shangyao like a whip.

Upon witnessing this, Shangyao’s pupils suddenly contracted immensely, retreating quickly.

The colorful ribbon swept across like a whip, Shangyao leaned back, his waist more supple than even those of dedicated dancers, narrowly avoiding the ribbon. Yet, as the ribbon brushed past him, it stung painfully.

Feeling the power in the ribbon, Shangyao’s face changed dramatically.

He hadn’t anticipated that in such a short time, Ye Xin’s strength would have improved so swiftly!

Even though Shangyao managed to evade the ribbon, the room behind him couldn’t.

Bam!

Since the structures of the Shangqing Sect were of wood and stone, with doors and windows of classical wooden design, they shattered instantly under the ribbon’s sweeping force.

Wood chips flew all around.

Ye Xin withdrew the ribbon, looked at Shangyao, and sneered, "Dodged quite fast!"

Immediately, Ye Xin rolled up the ribbon in her hand, folding it into a length of over a meter, and with a flash of her figure, struck fiercely toward Shangyao with the ribbon.

Shangyao didn’t dare to resist, quickly leaping away to dodge Ye Xin’s ribbon.

Bam!

The ribbon struck the stone slab on the ground, shattering it, sending stones and dirt flying.

It appeared to be fabric, yet its power was as fierce as a club!

The sect disciples were dumbfounded.

The figures of Ye Xin and Shangyao moved swiftly, throughout which, it was always Ye Xin pursuing and Shangyao evading.

However, Ye Xin seemed more at ease, like a cat chasing a mouse.

Shangyao appeared very embarrassed, gasping for breath, narrowly avoiding Ye Xin’s attacks each time.

Ye Xin seemed to be deliberately holding back, sometimes hitting the rock garden, sometimes striking the courtyard, sometimes the stone pillars; the fabric ribbon unleashed its ultimate power in Ye Xin’s hands, each attack detonating like a bomb, sending rocks flying, shattering stone slabs, cutting stone pillars in half, and flipping over the tiles on the roof ridge.

It looked less like she was attacking a person, more like she was demolishing a structure!

"My god! Is she even human?"

"Monstrous!"

"Truly monstrous!"

"The goddess has an extraordinary gift!"

The sect members gazed at Ye Xin’s heroic figure in awe.

"The strange noises earlier must’ve been caused by the goddess, right?"

"It truly was!"

"The heavens show an anomaly, this Cultivation might already..."

"Don’t say anymore! Too terrifying!"

"How many days has it been?"

"Not even a month, right?"

"I genuinely wonder, what did the goddess eat growing up!"

"So fierce, from start to finish, Senior Brother Shangyao has been suppressed!"

"I think the goddess was even holding back!"

...

Boom!

Another stone pillar was broken by Ye Xin.

Rumble!

Several stone pillars snapped, the building utterly failing to bear the weight, collapsing entirely.

A cloud of dust swirled up.

Everyone hurriedly scattered.

A graceful silhouette had already leaped out, standing on a stone, with a cold smile watching the scene.

Shangyao, covered in dust and exceedingly embarrassed, choked, escaping to hide beneath a tree, panting heavily.

Ye Xin saw Shangyao’s pitiful state and couldn’t help but laugh.

A smile that could topple cities.

Ye Xin’s smile was enough to captivate a nation.

Some sect disciples, upon seeing Ye Xin’s smile, couldn’t help but stare, entranced.

During Ye Xin’s time in the sect, they had never seen her smile.

Yet now, Ye Xin was smiling, and so gorgeously at that.

Ye Xin smiled because she was genuinely happy.

Indeed, she had been holding back from the start.

Because she had the strength to defeat Shangyao with a single move. However, she felt that was too easy, too lenient on Shangyao.

Thus, Ye Xin decided to demolish his house, disgracing him among the sect disciples.

Only then could she vent her frustrations, and consider it revenge for Yang Chen!

Ye Xin lightly tapped her foot, her body soaring to Shangyao’s front.

Shangyao, frightened, jumped up hastily, nervously staring at Ye Xin.

At this moment, he finally realized the gap in strength between himself and Ye Xin; he had no chance of defeating her, even at his peak!

Ye Xin, with an apologetic face, said, "Oh dear, sorry, it seems I demolished your house..."

Hearing this, Shangyao finally understood, Ye Xin wasn’t missing him, she was toying with him, her aim was to demolish his house!

At this moment, Shangyao’s heart surged with countless galloping horses of frustration and anger.

He realized that Ye Xin’s true intention was to utterly disgrace him!

"Ye Xin!" Shangyao gritted his teeth, "Don’t go too far!"

"Too far?" Ye Xin’s pretty face tightened instantly, almost forming a layer of frost, "Back then at the Flame Palace summit, Yang Chen was gravely wounded, fighting to the death, and when I pleaded with you all, why did no one say ’too far’? After Yang Chen risked his life to defeat you, when Kun Bai shamelessly attacked Yang Chen, why wasn’t it too far then? When my husband gave his all to injure Kun Bai and clearly won, yet all of you ganged up, why wasn’t it too far?"

Thinking back to that moment, Ye Xin’s beautiful eyes couldn’t help but shed glistening tears.
