Chapter 222: Me, can I be the mistress?

Ye Bai realized that Zhu Huang was not from Magic City.

In all likelihood, she was a Heaven's Pride from Shangjing.

The top-tier kind!

Her background was definitely not ordinary either!

She might be the eldest daughter of some wealthy family in Shangjing!

Yet, she claimed to be his fiancée!

"Did I guess right? Are Ye Sanjian and I actually from the same family, from the same wealthy Ye Family? And have I had a Marriage Contract with this girl since I was a child?"

"No, that's not right. Given this girl's talent, which is at least Saint-level Heaven's Pride.

If I really were some young master of the Ye Family and had a Marriage Contract with her when I was young, the so-called Ye Family would definitely have sent someone else to fulfill the Marriage Contract because I went missing!"

"After all, even in Shangjing, Saint-level Heaven's Pride are scarce! Not to mention a Saint-level Heaven's Pride who is a freshman!"

"The only explanation then is that Ye Sanjian has a grudge against me because of my parents!"

"They are not the honest and simple father or the frugal and plain mother in my memory, but Martial Dao powerhouses, at least at the Martial King Realm, or even standouts within the Martial King Realm!"

Ye Bai thought of many things in an instant.

His brain was naturally sharp.

Otherwise, his talent for Martial Techniques would not be so heaven-defying.

He hadn't guessed the truth before simply because he lacked key information.

But the appearance of Zhu Huang was like a ray of light piercing through dark clouds!

"That, um, this, friend?" Ye Bai then pulled back his thoughts.

With the intention of probing, he said to Zhu Huang.

"Calm down, I came to thank you, not to... do that with you!"

"Really?"

"Of course, I have a girlfriend, and I can also guarantee that I absolutely have no thoughts in that regard toward you!"

"You mean we can't be together?

That, that won't do, we have a Marriage Contract!

Why don't you break up with your girlfriend?"

"I love her very much."

"Like that... then, I, how about I be the mistress?"

After some dialogue, as they kept talking, Zhu Huang's eyes suddenly widened.

Her mind was filled with the thought of not wanting to be stabbed to death by Ye Bai in one go.

Ye Bai could tell that Zhu Huang was serious.

The corner of his eye couldn't help but twitch.

The good news was that the possibility of Zhu Huang having mistaken him for someone else was ruled out; if he continued, he would likely get the information he wanted.

But the bad news was that he seemed to have been latched onto.

For a moment, he couldn't even focus on probing.

"The Marriage Contract can be cancelled!" He turned his gaze and said seriously.

However, there was calculation behind it.

"It cannot be cancelled!

My grandfather just sent me a message; the Marriage Contract between us was set by your parents and my grandfather!"

"And since they are both Martial Saint-level powerhouses, their Martial Dao Will is carried on the Marriage Certificate. Unless they come in person, even if the Zhu Family unilaterally cancels the Marriage Contract, my grandfather will definitely suffer heavy injuries!"

Ye Bai only wanted to persuade Zhu Huang to give up the idea of being a mistress.

He truly had no interest in this heaven-sent fiancée.

The next second, however, Zhu Huang directly stated the answer he wanted to know!

"My parents are human Martial Saints?!"

Ye Bai's pupils couldn't help but constrict.

Although he had vaguely guessed that Ye Shanhe and his wife were not simple, he had not expected them to be two Martial Saint-level powerhouses!

"Jun, Junior, your parents are Martial Saints??" Meigui, who was on the side, was also shocked.

However, Ye Bai noticed that the hair all over Meigui's body was standing on end, and it wasn't just simple shock.

"Senior, what's wrong with you?"

He couldn't help but ask.

"No, nothing..." Meigui did not tell the truth.

"This sister, you guessed the identity of Ye Bai's parents, didn't you?"

"You didn't guess wrong, they are indeed the Tianyu Two Saints..."

"Those two Martial Saints who disappeared twelve years ago!"

Zhu Huang, however, revealed the reason for Meigui's change in expression.

"So Ye Bai, the Marriage Contract between us cannot be cancelled!" At the same time, she looked at Ye Bai with serious eyes.

"Tian, Tianyu Two Saints..."

Ye Bai knew the reason why Zhu Huang insisted on fulfilling the Marriage Contract, but he couldn't care about that anymore, because this news hit his mind like a sudden thunderbolt!

Not for any other reason.

Only because he had seen the deeds of the Tianyu Two Saints in some extracurricular book...

Two existences second only to the Four Saints!

At the same time, they are also one of the only two Martial Saint-level traitors in the Human Race since the beginning of the High Martial Era!

No official book is permitted to record their name!

Twelve years ago, they opened a massive number of Dimensional Gates across the globe, leading to the entry of countless Alien Races, and in a single night, corpses floated for a million miles across the world!

Great Xia suffered the least loss, yet still thousands died!

His parents were actually peerless supervillains?!

"So, this is the reason why Ye Sanjian hated me and kept saying he wanted revenge before the final battle..."

"Because my parents caused the death of Ye Sanjian's family twelve years ago..."

At this moment, Ye Bai thought of many other things.

For all these years, Ye Sanjian's target for revenge had always been only one person, and that was him!

Qin Churan being poisoned back then was because she was implicated by him! He remembered at this moment the Hundred Poison Spider's ability to poison ordinary people nearby when its poison took effect!

Even this time, the destruction of Jiangcheng was also his responsibility.

Liu Qingtian, Qin Churan, Dantai Yanran, and many, many other people from Jiangcheng were all killed because of him!

It wasn't that Ye Sanjian couldn't touch him, which was why he went to kill Qin Churan and destroy Jiangcheng!

The other party's goal had always been just to force him to make a move!!

He had originally thought that killing Ye Sanjian was revenge.

It turned out he hadn't expected that the source was actually within himself!

Guilt, self-reproach.

Filled his heart in an instant!

If he had known the truth earlier, left Jiangcheng earlier, left Qin Churan...

However, it was also at this moment.

"Is it, after all, too late? Sigh!"

A figure appeared within the vicinity of the Tongtian Tower at this time.

He glanced at Ye Bai, especially at Zhu Huang beside Ye Bai, and let out a long sigh!

He wore clothes covered in patches, a wine gourd hung from his waist, and his hair was messy.

But his eyes were full of sharp light.

It was none other than Ye Bai's master, Zui Xiaoyao!

And it was Zui Xiaoyao, who was not drunk and absolutely reliable!

"Disciple." Then Zui Xiaoyao came directly in front of Ye Bai.

"Come with your master."

"Your master has some things he wants to tell you."

Seeing Ye Bai had no reaction, he told Meigui and Zhu Huang to wait.

He grabbed Ye Bai and brought him outside the vicinity of the Tongtian Tower.

"Master, you don't need to comfort me..." Only then did Ye Bai slightly recover, though his expression remained sorrowful.

"Your master is not here to comfort you; your master is here to tell you the whole truth," Zui Xiaoyao said.

"Before that, look at this first." Then he handed a mobile phone to Ye Bai.

Ye Bai looked at the phone screen in silence,

On it was a live stream room,

Meigui's live stream room.

"Why are there... so many people in my live stream room?!"

Meigui had just discovered the anomaly in the live stream room.

But what Zui Xiaoyao wanted Ye Bai to look at was not Meigui.

"White God is awesome!"

"Hahaha, a Sixth Grade fighting against a Seventh Grade; this is the gap between the Middle Three Grades and the Upper Three Grades, like a natural chasm! Who else is there!"

"The key is that White God was still Fifth Grade nine days ago. I, Hong Kong City's Wu Yanzu, announce that from today on, I am a die-hard fan of White God!"

"Emperor-level Prodigy, White God is a genuine Emperor-level Prodigy! The experts were right; he is the First Genius of the younger generation in Great Xia today!"

It was the dense, overwhelming barrage of comments.

And the very, very large number of online viewers.

It had actually exceeded one hundred million!

You have to know, the total population of Magic City is only fifty million!

And it was the middle of the night!

In an instant, Ye Bai realized what Zui Xiaoyao wanted him to know.

"There really is an organization behind Ye Sanjian.

This organization even planned the destruction of Jiangcheng."

"Ye Sanjian did indeed come to kill me today, and injecting the serum was also still to kill me."

"If he killed me, his and his organization's goal would have been achieved."

"But it doesn't matter if he couldn't kill me; the organization behind him had already made arrangements. I will become an Emperor-level Prodigy the likes of which have never appeared before."

"From today on, I will be a thorn in the side and a nail in the eye of the Three Great Alien Races. The Three Great Alien Races will try every possible means to put me to death."

Although the value of an Emperor-level Prodigy is not as high as a God-Level Talent, it is still the first of its kind throughout history!

But what is the point of knowing all this?

If I haven't guessed wrong, are the members of the organization behind Ye Sanjian all doing this for revenge?

And even if he killed everyone in the organization, it wouldn't change the fact that Jiangcheng has already been destroyed because of him!

However, contrary to Ye Bai's expectations...

"Disciple, what I am about to tell you next is about you.

First, although your parents caused the deaths of thousands of people within Great Xia back then."

"But twelve years have passed, and most of the Dimensional Gates they opened in Great Xia have turned into Secret Realms! These Secret Realms have cultivated many prodigies, and there is even no lack of new Martial Saints!"

"In fact, according to the information I have gathered, the Alien Race actually hates your parents to the bone..."

"Because of this, your master has always felt that the merits and demerits of the Tianyu Two Saints cancel each other out!"

"Secondly, although it is not my place to judge Ye Sanjian's actions.

But the organization behind Ye Sanjian is not a victim of the incident involving your parents twelve years ago!"

Zui Xiaoyao told Ye Bai that the organization behind Ye Sanjian, while called an organization, is actually a group of high-level members of the Human Race.

Because their philosophies differed from other high-level members, they gathered together to form a small circle!

There are many such small circles within the high-level of the Human Race.

However, according to their philosophies, they can generally be divided into the Radical Faction and the Conservative Faction.

The Radical Faction generally believes that Great Xia should not be cowardly, and should utilize all available power to strike into the other side of the Dimensional Gates by any means possible and wipe out the Three Great Alien Races.

The Conservative Faction believes that the Three Great Alien Races are too powerful, and they should first accumulate strength before going to destroy the Three Great Alien Races!

And the organization behind Ye Sanjian is named the God Creation Society, one of the Conservative Faction.

Their philosophy is to spare no cost to create an invincible god-level existence for the Human Race before overthrowing the Three Great Alien Races!

The "spare no cost" here refers to even temporarily borrowing the power of the Alien Race!

The potion Ye Sanjian used was given to him by them.

Ye Sanjian's multiple contacts with the Alien Race were also through the channels of the God Creation Society!

And although, according to the information forced out of the Martial Kings of the God Creation Society after Ye Sanjian beat them violently for many days, regarding Ye Sanjian's multiple actions.

The God Creation Society had no personnel participating in the actual operations; everything was solely Ye Sanjian's own behavior.

They even had corresponding contingency plans.

"But the God Creation Society recruited Ye Sanjian in the first place because of Ye Sanjian's hatred for your parents and for you! Because of a prophecy!

A prophecy that, although said to come from Tianjizi—the meritorious official who followed the Four Saints a hundred years ago to establish the current Great Xia—was actually just a painting!"

Zui Xiaoyao then used his own Qi and Blood to draw that painting...
