Chapter 147: The Five Great Ancient Clans

~6 min read 1,126 words

Xie Xiaoxiao didn't care at all what Norris said.

The education she had received since childhood and the history of blood and tears of the human race all spoke of the hatefulness of the Demon Clan.

It's like if you bumped into your good friend having a conflict with a 'person from a small island nation' on the road; would you carefully investigate who was right and who was wrong?

The Demon Clan deserved to die!

Under Xie Xiaoxiao's control, the star puppet threads wound toward Norris, containing intense killing intent, intending to strangle Norris directly!

Norris raised his hands to block, but the star puppet threads wound around his arms, instantly digging into his flesh and blood, cutting his arms into a bloody mess.

But the pain in his arms was insignificant compared to the pain in his heart!

Norris knew he definitely wouldn't survive today, but he couldn't swallow the monstrous grievance in his heart!

Just like Little Liuzi, who would rather disembowel himself to prove he only ate one bowl of jelly noodles, Norris would bet his life to expose Ye Lin's true face today! To prove he was wronged!

"You despicable and shameless human! You bully demons too much!"

Norris roared and charged angrily toward Ye Lin.

He didn't believe that Ye Lin could continue to pretend when facing a fatal attack!

"You're courting death!"

Seeing this, Xie Xiaoxiao's eyes narrowed, and the star puppet threads in her hand shot out like arrows leaving the bow.

But Norris didn't dodge or evade, letting the star puppet threads pierce one bloody hole after another through his body, continuing to charge toward Ye Lin. This showed just how aggrieved and angry he was.

"Is this Demon Clan member crazy?"

Xie Xiaoxiao was also startled. Norris's fighting style clearly showed he no longer cared about his own life.

But startled as she was, Xie Xiaoxiao wouldn't let Norris hurt Ye Lin. She pulled her fingertips back, and the star puppet threads that had pierced Norris's body instantly contracted, pulling Norris backward.

"Ah!!!"

Norris's eyes were blood-red, gasping like an ox, and he let out a hysterical roar.

Then, he actually struggled with all his might, regardless of the consequences. The sharp star puppet threads instantly cut through his body, and he charged toward Ye Lin, covered in blood.

"Ye Mushuang! Be careful!"

Xie Xiaoxiao hadn't expected Norris to be so desperate. For a moment, she couldn't react in time and could only shout to warn Ye Lin.

Watching Norris pounce toward him with a ferocious expression, Ye Lin almost couldn't help but laugh out loud, but considering Xie Xiaoxiao was still there, Ye Lin finally held it back, though the corners of his mouth still couldn't stop rising.

"I'll kill you!"

Norris roared, and his sharp, knife-like demonic claws slashed down toward Ye Lin's head. He had to force out Ye Lin's true face!

But just as his attack was about to land on Ye Lin, Ye Lin raised his hand, and the Absolute Zero Domain enveloped Norris. His body began to freeze bit by bit, until he couldn't move at all.

"I'm not reconciled! I'm not reconciled! Can the Demon Clan just be wronged by anyone?" Norris let out an unreconciled roar.

"Nonsense, if you aren't wronged, should I take the blame myself?" Ye Lin said in a low voice.

Accompanied by a flash of cold light, Xie Xiaoxiao's attack arrived late, directly decapitating Norris.

"Ye Mushuang, are you okay?" Xie Xiaoxiao hurriedly checked the injuries on Ye Lin's body.

"No matter, just some minor injuries." Ye Lin revealed a gentle smile.

"Phew! That's good!" Xie Xiaoxiao's hanging heart finally let go, and she breathed a sigh of relief. "Let's go out then!"

Ye Lin nodded, and the two walked side by side toward the exit. Along the way, both were tacitly silent, as if each had something on their minds.

Walking to the exit, both stopped at the same time and spoke in unison.

"I..." X2

"You..." X2

"You speak first." X2

The two looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Then I'll speak first!"

Xie Xiaoxiao gathered her courage and said very seriously.

"Ye Mushuang, my father is outside! Once we step out of this door, you must pretend you don't know me well, just a chance encounter. Since we are both human, we helped each other out. Do you understand? Otherwise... you will die!"

Ye Lin narrowed his eyes slightly, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes, then he asked with a smile.

"What? Is your father some kind of man-eating monster?"

"No!" Xie Xiaoxiao shook her head, her face serious. "My father... might be even more terrifying than a monster! Since I was a child, any male who dared to approach me without his permission would disappear inexplicably."

"Is he a very powerful class-changer? Or is his influence very vast?" Ye Lin asked.

Xie Xiaoxiao shook her head with a bitter smile: "Ye Mushuang, don't ask anymore. Knowing too much is no good for you. Being able to know you... I'm already very happy!"

"No!"

Ye Lin rushed forward, grabbed Xie Xiaoxiao's shoulders, and looked at her firmly with burning eyes.

"No matter how great the resistance, I will not give up! I will definitely come to find you. Tell me! At least let me know how high a mountain I need to climb to see you again!"

A blush instantly appeared on Xie Xiaoxiao's face. She tugged at the corner of her clothes and lowered her little head.

"Tell me, Xiaoxiao! I really am not reconciled to never seeing you again." Ye Lin's voice was full of grievance, like an innocent puppy caught in the rain.

Xie Xiaoxiao raised her eyes and met Ye Lin's gaze. Ye Lin didn't retreat at all, looking at Xie Xiaoxiao, their clear eyes reflecting each other's image.

"Will you really come to find me? You aren't lying to me to make me happy, are you?" Xie Xiaoxiao asked, biting her rosy lips.

"I, Ye Mushuang, swear to heaven, if I lied to you, let me be struck by five thunders..."

Before Ye Lin could finish speaking, Xie Xiaoxiao raised her arms and wrapped them around his neck. Immediately after, Ye Lin felt his lips touch something soft, like warm jelly.

Xie Xiaoxiao's sudden action left Ye Lin stunned on the spot.

When they separated a moment later, Xie Xiaoxiao's face was thoroughly red. She trembled and said in a low voice.

"Don't talk nonsense. Even if you are lying to me, I hope you stay safe and sound."

"My father... is the head of the Xie family, one of the five great ancient clans of Da Xia, Xie Hong!"
