Chapter 1696

Yao Yue, who had been hurt by love, had an extreme temperament.

In her eyes, romantic men were all heartless men in waiting.

It was just that they were covered up by hypocrisy.

And Gu Hanyuan was the one with the most momentum in the Jianghu in recent years, regardless of which aspect.

Therefore, it was not surprising that Yao Yue would have the idea of exposing Gu Hanyuan's hypocritical face.

She even felt that she was preventing more women from being deceived by Gu Hanyuan.

Tang Lian Xing was startled, and a look of worry appeared on her beautiful jade face.

She hurriedly asked:

"Sister, are you going to fight Gu Hanyuan? It is rumored that Gu Hanyuan can even kill Earth Immortals; fighting him is too dangerous."

Yao Yue hesitated upon hearing this.

However, after a moment of consideration, she still said:

"My 'Bright Jade Art' has already broken through to the ninth level, and I also have the cultivation of the late Grandmaster stage, and with the divine weapon 'Green Blood Reflecting Danqing,' even if I am not his match, I won't be unable to escape. Moreover, I already have a plan; with intent against no intent, I might not be unable to win against Gu Hanyuan. Besides, it might not necessarily lead to a direct fight."

Yao Yue is truly worthy of being the "Immortal Demon."

Having this cultivation at this age is truly rare in the world.

There are no wrong nicknames, only wrong names.

The so-called "Immortal Demon" refers to her terrifying strength and talent, which are like an immortal and a demon.

However, even so, Tang Lian Xing said worriedly:

"Sister, it is still too dangerous for you to go alone; why don't I go with you? That way, we can look out for each other."

Yao Yue's jade face was startled upon hearing this.

She was at a loss for how to handle Tang Lian Xing's worry and care.

With Yao Yue's strength, there were few times when she needed Tang Lian Xing to worry.

But Gu Hanyuan was different; he was truly the best in the world.

With Yao Yue's disgust for him and her extreme temperament, conflict was a high-probability event; how could Tang Lian Xing not worry about her?

Yao Yue hesitated for a moment and accepted Tang Lian Xing's good intentions.

She looked away and said indifferently:

"Very well. Then you can come with me."

Tang Lian Xing was startled upon hearing this, not expecting Yao Yue to agree so easily.

Immediately afterward, she showed joy:

"That's great. With us sisters joining forces, even if the opponent is Gu Hanyuan, we don't need to fear him."

Gu Hanyuan wouldn't have thought that, because of himself, these two sisters, who clearly cared about each other but couldn't open their hearts for various reasons, had unexpectedly grown closer.

Yao Yue felt a bit awkward in her heart and stiffly changed the subject:

"By the way. How is Wuxie doing?"

Tang Lian Xing showed a gentle look upon hearing this and said:

"Wuxie has done quite well since he entered the Jianghu and has already punished several heartless men."

After a pause.

She said worriedly:

"It's just that Wuxie lacks experience and inevitably acts without flexibility; I'm worried that he will cause trouble due to recklessness."

Yao Yue snorted coldly and aloofly:

"Hmph, who in the world does our Yihua Palace fear? So what if he causes trouble?"

She suddenly frowned and said in a deep voice:

"Tang Lian Xing, you haven't really poured too much emotion into Wuxie, have you? Or have you forgotten the purpose for which we raised him?"

Tang Lian Xing's expression shook, and she said with lowered eyes:

"Sister, you are overthinking it. It's just that Jiang Feng's other child hasn't appeared yet, so the plan cannot be implemented for the time being. And Wuxie, after all, represents the face of our Yihua Palace."

A flash of sorrow that made people pity her couldn't help but pass through her eyes.

Yao Yue nodded slightly, clearly very satisfied with Tang Lian Xing's attitude.

She said coldly:

"You are right; Wuxie does represent the face of our Yihua Palace. If he truly encounters any trouble he cannot solve, I will take action."

"Then I will go and make some preparations for our departure."

Tang Lian Xing said with lowered eyes and turned to leave.

Watching Tang Lian Xing's departing back, Yao Yue snorted coldly.

"Jiang Feng!"

Her eyes were full of pain and hatred.

Clearly, because Jiang Feng was mentioned, she recalled the pain again.

Rolling up the sleeve of her left arm, one could see that the wrist, which should have been flawless, was covered in scars.

There were knife wounds and needle wounds, shocking to the eye.

Such terrifying scars left on such fair and beautiful skin.

Anyone who saw it would feel pity for it.

However, Yao Yue, the owner of the arm, didn't pity it at all.

A flash of hatred crossed her beautiful face.

A needle suddenly appeared in the jade fingers of her slender right hand, and she stabbed it into her right wrist, which was covered in scars, without hesitation.

Bright red blood immediately flowed from the skin that was as delicate as it could be.

Because the skin was too smooth and delicate, the flowing blood didn't stop at all, leaving several dark red black spots on the ground.

However, Yao Yue, who was self-mutilating, not only didn't feel pain, but instead showed pleasure on her face.

Clearly, the pain of the body was simply no match for the pain of the heart.

This kind of practice could instead vent the hatred in her heart.

Gu Hanyuan naturally didn't know about Yao Yue's attention to him at first...

However, he did discover the Yihua Palace disciple who was peeping at him.

Just like the Lingjiu Palace, as a sect that rarely accepts female disciples in the world.

The vast majority of disciples produced by Yihua Palace were not low in appearance.

Not to mention those who were taken in because of their rough fate.

There were no ugly ones among those who were adopted through normal channels.

Although these disciples were not qualified to learn the core cultivation method of Yihua Palace, the "Bright Jade Art."

But other cultivation methods also had the effect of preserving beauty.
