Chapter 703: I am innocent!

It's you!

Yun Hai's pupils shrank sharply, his whole body as if struck by a great shock.

Fragments of scenes from the ancient battlefield ruins flashed through his mind like fleeting glimmers, a faint pain throbbed in his lower abdomen, as if he were once again experiencing the misery of chickens flying and eggs breaking.

It was Ye Qingran, who stripped him of his right to be a man, reducing him to a laughingstock!

Thinking of the humiliation he had suffered, the fear in Yun Hai's heart gradually gave way to anger, "Ye..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, he felt something fly into it, and then he couldn't continue.

Shh~

Ye Qingran made a silencing gesture; Yun Hai knew she was doing this for fear of her identity being discovered, but he insisted on letting everyone, especially Miss Yun Lan, know that this disguised woman was Ye Qingran!

But he discovered that he actually couldn't speak!

What on earth is going on?

He actually couldn't speak!

"You just need to know it yourself; don't say it out loud, or it won't be fun!"

"I..." Yun Hai gritted his teeth, discovering that he could actually speak again.

He belatedly realized that aside from being unable to utter the three words "Ye Qingran," he could say everything else.

What kind of evil has he fallen under?

Or is it Ye Qingran playing tricks?

"You're dead! She won't let you off!" Yun Hai naturally couldn't mention Miss Yun Lan's name in public.

"Is that so?" Ye Qingran was unconvinced, "You'd better worry about yourself! Since I managed to cripple you last time..."

Ye Qingran paused slightly, giving those around enough time to imagine.

"I heard from a distant relative that Yun Hai's... that thing was ruined, from then on he could no longer be a man; at first I didn't believe it, but I never expected it to be true..."

"There's such a thing? Could it be that this young lady did the ruining?"

"No wonder someone said they saw Yun Hai go to the small official residence; it turns out this is the reason..."

Well, it was originally just a rumor circulating in a small circle, but Ye Qingran's actions have made it known to everyone!

Gazes fixed not on anything else but on Yun Hai's lower abdomen, that curious look as if they had discovered a new continent!

Yun Hai trembled all over with rage.

Seeing that it was about enough, Ye Qingran continued, "This time, it's still possible. But what should I cripple you with this time?" Ye Qingran stroked her chin, pondering.

"You dare! This is Yun Tribe territory!"

"What do I have to fear? Last time you told me you have Yun Tribe bloodline, yet I still crippled your manhood!"

Ye Qingran's remarks caused everyone present to involuntarily suck in a breath of cold air.

This woman is too arrogant!

You should know, this is Yunzhong City! Offending a Yun Tribe member here is no different from seeking death!

No matter how strong your personal strength, how could you be a match for the entire Yun Tribe?

Just what is this woman's background, that she can speak so boastfully?

Yun Hai's face flushed liver-red; if looks could kill, Ye Qingran would already be riddled with holes.

"How about this: this time I'll cripple your cultivation?"

Yun Hai's pupils trembled.

Cripple his cultivation?

No!

Absolutely not!

A huge fear surged in Yun Hai's heart.

Ye Qingran saw this and sneered, "How about this: you kneel and beg me, and I'll spare you this once?"

"I'll give you a chance to consider; I'll count to three, and if you kneel, I'll let bygones be bygones."

"Three!"

"Two!"

Yun Hai clenched his fists, trembling all over, praying for his reinforcements to arrive quickly.

But what he didn't expect was that, as long as someone wanted it, his reinforcements might never come in this lifetime!

"One."

Yun Hai despaired.

No one came to save him!

"I kneel!"

He let out a loud shout.

Compared to dignity, cultivation is naturally more important.

He believed Ye Qingran could definitely do something like that.

"Then kneel!" Ye Qingran's brows sank.

"You may have unyielding pride, but the precondition is not to offend me; otherwise, I'll shatter all your pride and trample your dignity into the dust!"

Yun Hai's whole body shuddered, then he fiercely dropped to his knees, his heart and eyes filled with rage.

In his mind he imagined countless scenes of torturing Ye Qingran.

He swore to make this woman wish for life but unable to die!

"Kneel and bow!"

Ye Qingran said lightly.

Yunhai nearly shattered his teeth, yet despite his great reluctance, he had no choice but to comply.

Everyone around stared, eyes wide and mouths agape at this scene.

Yunhai is a side-branch of the Yun Tribe; his father possesses the Yun Tribe's fifth-level bloodline, and Yunhai does as well. Such a person is the most noble among the Yun Tribe side-branch. Yunhai usually struts arrogantly through the outer city of Yunzhong City—when has he ever endured such humiliation?

Yunhai kowtowed ten times straight; Ye Qingran found it tedious, saying, "Boring, scram!"

Yunhai could hardly believe his ears—would Ye Qingran really let him off so easily?

But he wasn't stupid either; he sprang to his feet, glanced at Ye Qingran, then waved his hand and said, "Go!"

"Wait!"

Yunhai looked at her, both angry and astonished.

"Didn't you understand? Get lost!"

Yunhai nearly shattered his silver teeth.

Amidst the stares of the crowd, he lay on the ground, rolling over and over, gradually moving away.

Then his silver-armored guards followed him step for step.

Watching all this with a cold gaze, Ye Qingran's eyes and brows grew colder.

Victory makes a king, defeat makes a bandit. If today the stronger one were Yunhai, her fate would be even worse.

"Just let him go like that?" the young man asked, watching Yunhai's departing direction with a hint of displeasure.

"What else do you want? Really kill him?" Ye Qingran countered.

The young man shook his head. "No. Yunhai is utterly wicked; I feel that letting him go like this leaves me somewhat unwilling."

Ye Qingran gave no clear answer, walked back to Fu Hanxiu's side, and the young man followed.

Yun Lu looked at the young man and asked, "Are you truly a member of the Spirit Chaser Wing?"

The young man looked at Yun Lu, nodded, and said, "Not bad."

"It was Miss who saved me; I am deeply grateful!" The young man looked at Ye Qingran and said, "I am Wu Xin; please guide me."

Wu Xin?

Ye Qingran barely perceptibly raised her eyebrows.

Yun Lu nodded, "Little friend Wu Xin, we wish to join the Spirit Chaser Wing; could you possibly recommend us?"

"Are you sincerely seeking to join the Spirit Chaser Wing? If so, I can recommend you; if not, I'm afraid I cannot comply!" Wu Xin's attitude was very firm.

"Naturally, it's sincere!" Yun Lu assured.

"Good! Then, everyone, follow me!"

Who would have thought that the Spirit Chaser Wing's underground organization is established beneath the most prosperous wine house in the outer city, Halberd Cloud Tower, and that underground there are many interconnected passages leading who knows where?

"You brought us here—aren't you afraid we might be spies sent by Yun Lan?"

Standing at the entrance to the underground, Ye Qingran suddenly said with a smile.

Wu Xin blinked, then smiled, "How could that be? Miss, you are my lifesaver—how could you be a spy sent by Yun Lan?"

Ye Qingran gave no clear answer, "Let's go."

"Please!"

Wu Xin made a gesture of invitation; Fu Hanxiu and Ye Qingran went first, with Wu Xin and Yun Lu following behind.

Waiting for their figures to disappear into the darkness,
