Chapter 82: Volume 1, Chapter 82: Admitting defeat, accidentally let it slip, what to do?

Yun Qiyue was soon taken out of the General's Mansion by the masked person.

Fortunately, this time the masked person did not make Yun Qiyue experience a roller coaster again, but had arranged a carriage not far from the city gate.

Throughout the journey, the masked person did not speak, refusing to tell Yun Qiyue why Jiuyuan was looking for her, which made Yun Qiyue feel inexplicably nervous.

Not long after, the carriage arrived at the Forbidden Land.

This time, Yun Qiyue was taken to a pitch-black, slightly eerie forest.

"Where is your master?"

Yun Qiyue always felt that this forest gave her a very bad feeling.

However, after Yun Qiyue asked, she heard no response for a long time.

Turning her head, where was there any masked person behind her?

What the hell is going on?

What was Jiuyuan's intention in having her brought here?

Just as Yun Qiyue was full of doubts, she suddenly felt movement behind her, and a dangerous aura bore down on her.

Yun Qiyue's heart tightened. She looked back and saw a bamboo stalk flying toward her with lightning speed.

Damn it! The bamboo has become a spirit.

Yun Qiyue thought to herself while quickly bending down to dodge the flying bamboo's attack.

Just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, several more bamboo stalks flew toward her from all directions, with even more ferocity than before.

Seeing this scene, Yun Qiyue dared not be distracted anymore and focused entirely on dealing with the bamboo stalks flying toward her.

In the shadows, Mingfeng, who was accompanying his master and watching everything below, couldn't help but break into a cold sweat for Yun Qiyue.

His master's jealousy was truly no joke; he had even used the Thousand Bamboo Array, which was used to train them, his subordinates. It seemed the future mistress was going to suffer.

Mingfeng had just had this thought when a scene that left him dumbfounded occurred.

Yun Qiyue, who had been struggling, had somehow already broken the array.

This...

One had to know that when he first entered the Thousand Bamboo Array, it had taken him a full half-hour, and he had come out with a bruised and swollen face.

Ye Lanjue watched everything below without much expression on his face, only saying coldly, "Activate the Giant Array."

Upon hearing this, Mingfeng felt a chill down his spine.

"Master, are you sure you want to activate the Giant Array? That is..." It would kill people!

"What? Do you want to take her place?" Ye Lanjue asked coldly.

With one sentence, Mingfeng swallowed the words he hadn't finished saying.

Just kidding, the Giant Array was a grueling formation that made everyone in the Ghost Night Pavilion shudder; he didn't want to endure it again at all.

With a slightly pitying look at Yun Qiyue in the forest, he silently said "good luck" and went to activate the array.

Yun Qiyue looked around vigilantly, fearing that bamboo stalks might fly out from somewhere else.

Only she knew what the thrill just now felt like.

It could be said that if it weren't for the Body Tempering Pill, which had pushed her physical functions to the limit, she might not have been so relaxed just now.

What the hell was that damn Jiuyuan doing, calling her here in the middle of the night?

Just as Yun Qiyue was cursing in her heart, she suddenly heard a rumbling sound.

Was it an earthquake?

Soon, Yun Qiyue dismissed this idea.

It wasn't an earthquake.

Then...

At this moment, two huge shadows were slowly approaching Yun Qiyue from the darkness.

Damn it! Moving stone men!

In this instant, Yun Qiyue felt as if she were definitely in a nightmare.

But soon, Yun Qiyue clearly knew that she was not dreaming.

Because the two stone men attacked her, appearing clumsy but actually moving quickly. In order to dodge, her arm was scratched, and it hurt.

You wouldn't feel pain in a dream.

Watching the stone men attack her again, Yun Qiyue grabbed a bamboo pole from the side and swung it at the stone men.

"Bang!" A loud noise.

The bamboo pole turned into several bamboo strips, while the stone man's fist swung straight toward Yun Qiyue.

Although Yun Qiyue dodged as fast as she could, the stone man's stone arm still hit Yun Qiyue's arm.

A sharp pain struck, and it felt as if her bones were about to be shattered, but Yun Qiyue gritted her teeth and didn't cry out.

Next, Yun Qiyue climbed onto the stone man, wanting to find a way to solve the stone men, but soon, she was swiped away by a punch from the other stone man.

"Thump—" With a sound, Yun Qiyue was slammed hard onto the ground, and it hurt so much her bones felt like they were falling apart.

Yun Qiyue had never been someone willing to admit defeat. In the past, through various cruel trainings, she didn't know how many times she had faced death, didn't know how many times she had been beaten down, but even when facing the most formidable enemies, she had still climbed back up.

So, this time, Yun Qiyue still climbed up from the ground, refusing to admit defeat, and attacked the stone men again.

Even if every attack was like throwing an egg against a rock, Yun Qiyue's eyes remained unyielding.

In the distance, watching Yun Qiyue being beaten down time and time again, then climbing up time and time again, and being beaten down again, Ye Lanjue's eyes changed slightly. His hands clenched into fists, then relaxed, repeating this who knows how many times, until Yun Qiyue was finally beaten down again.

This time, Yun Qiyue had no strength left to climb up. She could only watch helplessly as the stone man approached her step by step, then lifted its huge foot to stomp toward her chest.

At this moment, Yun Qiyue finally felt how insignificant she was in this world.

In her eyes, a flash of unwillingness passed.

Just as Yun Qiyue closed her eyes, preparing to pay a high price to the system to exchange for Recovery Liquid for a desperate fight, the world suddenly became quiet.

Opening her eyes, Yun Qiyue met a pair of cold, sharp eyes.

Seeing those eyes, Yun Qiyue was stunned for a moment, then became somewhat exasperated. "Jiuyuan, you bastard, if you wanted to kill me, you should have said so earlier. Why call me here in the middle of the night to torture people?"

Hearing this, the cold air on Ye Lanjue's body suddenly increased. "Still have the strength to curse me? It seems you want to fight a few more rounds with the giants?"

The tone was icy, with no discernible emotion, but Yun Qiyue clearly felt the threat within it.

Thinking of the awkward situation just now, Yun Qiyue immediately admitted defeat. "No, no, no, you heard wrong. I wasn't cursing you, I... I was cursing a turtle..."

After saying the last sentence, Yun Qiyue wished she could sew her mouth shut.

Admitting defeat, accidentally let it slip, what to do?

Yun Qiyue only felt a powerful cold air surrounding her, making her not even have the courage to open her eyes.

The next moment, Yun Qiyue only felt her body being lifted, and then, warm breath came to her ear.

Before Yun Qiyue could react, she heard Jiuyuan ask softly in her ear with his low, hoarse voice, "Cursing... a turtle? Are you sure?"

The voice was very soft, but the threat was full.

Yun Qiyue didn't even think, shaking her head like a rattle. "No, no, you heard wrong."

Damn it, this is life-threatening! ===== CHAPTER 83 =====
