Chapter 97: with translation of chapter title

~8 min read 1,453 words

That firewood stick is too special; the Seventh Prince and Mu Qingrou both stumbled on this firewood stick; she must be cautious.

Ye Qingran seemed unwilling, her dark brows slightly furrowed, and she did not answer.

"How come, you're not willing?" Ye Sisi saw this, her heart growing more certain that the firewood stick had a problem.

At this moment, Dongfang Xuan's voice came from below the platform.

"Sisi makes perfect sense, Ye Qingran; your match is not allowed to use weapons."

Before Wuji Hall that day, he stumbled under Ye Qingran's firewood stick, and also concluded that this ordinary-looking stick was very problematic. Without the stick's aid, Ye Qingran's chance of defeating Ye Sisi is almost zero.

"Crown Prince, what do you think?"

Ye Qingran ignored everyone else, her gaze shifting to land on Dongfang Qingxuan.

Dongfang Qingxuan didn't expect Ye Qingran to throw this problem at him.

His gaze sank, fixed on Ye Qingran, as if trying to see through her thoughts.

Unfortunately, Ye Qingran's eyes were clear and lofty like the azure sky, making it impossible to discern even a trace of emotion.

He furrowed his brows, pondered briefly, then said: "Weapons are blind; to avoid bloodshed and injury, let's not use them."

"Then we'll follow the Crown Prince's."

Ye Qingran seemed to compromise helplessly.

Ye Sisi's smile widened upon hearing that.

"Without the aid of that stick, Ye Qingran, I want to see what else you rely on!"

At the same time, on Xuanwu Street, the noble Profound Moon Silver Wolf, no longer its former graceful composure, ran wildly down the street as if evil ghosts were chasing it.

But there were no evil ghosts; instead, there were two mischievous little sprites.

Being messed up by two toothless toddlers, as a four-star bloodline Spirit Beast, the Profound Moon Silver Wolf declared it had never suffered such humiliation!

The exhausted Profound Moon Silver Wolf darted into a side alley, hiding behind some clutter and trembling.

"Huh, Xiao Yin? I just saw it a moment ago."

"It must be hiding! Playing hide-and-seek, I've never been afraid!"

"Don't find me!"

"Don'tfind me!"

These two voices clearly reached Xiao Yin's ears; it silently prayed in its heart.

But the heavens evidently didn't hear it.

"Ha, so you're here!"

An excited voice came from behind; Xiao Yin tensed up, wanting to cry but unable to.

It hid so well, yet they could still find it—are they demons?

"Xiao Yin, next time remember to hide better; you make me feel there's no challenge!" Mo Xiaohu stroked Xiao Yin's menacing fangs and admonished earnestly.

Xiao Yin: "……"

Being a wolf is tough!

"Never mind, I won't tease you anymore; the beautiful mother's and that ugly woman's match is about to start—quickly carry us back!"

Hearing that, the Profound Moon Silver Wolf was overjoyed, finally freed. It then didn't hesitate, grew a bit larger, and carried the two children racing toward the Xuanwu Platform.

As the Xuanwu Platform came into view, several figures suddenly appeared ahead, blocking their path.

The two sat one in front of the other on Xiao Yin's back, lifting their eyelids to scrutinize the clearly ill-intentioned uncles before them.

"Who are you?!"

Mo Xiaohu and Fu Chuchen spoke in unison, their unintentionally revealed aura resembling that of an imperial son, startling the several people into a brief stupor.

"Are these two children definitely the trash Ye Qingran's?"

"How do they feel even more heavenly majestic than the current His Majesty?"

"They must be mistaken!"

While the several were still dazed, Mo Xiaohu and Fu Chuchen had already seen through them.

"Are you the clowns sent by those ugly women of the Ye Family?"

"Clowns?"

A group of six people stared at each other.

"We are indeed sent by the Ye Family, not clowns."

Mo Xiaohu and Fu Chuchen exchanged a glance, deeply worried about these people's intelligence.

"What do you want?"

"We are good people; we came to invite you upstairs for tea."

The leading man, with shifty eyes, pointed to a teahouse behind him and smirked lecherously.

"Can you see the Xuanwu Platform performance from upstairs?"

Fu Chuchen asked.

"Of course! Our private room offers an excellent view, guaranteeing you can take it all in!"

"And, is there good food and drink?"

Mo Xiaohu asked.

"That's a must!"

Those few people inwardly sneered; indeed, they were just two children.

Mo Xiaohu questioned Fu Chuchen with his gaze: "Good view and food—should we go?"

"Just a few minor lackeys of the Xuan Kings—why not go?" Fu Chuchen replied with his gaze, his deep starry eyes like his father's flashing a disdainful look.

"Then let's go together! You must not deceive us, or you'll surely die!"

They're sure to die?

Those few people thought it was hilarious—two little brats who couldn't even truss a chicken—how could they possibly still be a match for them?

"We're all good people—how could we possibly deceive you!"

The leading man grinned, a flash of killing intent passing through his murky eyes.

Their employer said that once the matter is settled, these two children must die!

"Little Yin, go back. We're going to have tea with these uncles."

Little Yin: "..."

Having already experienced the two kids' scheming, Little Yin had no worries about their comfort, and without hesitation, took off running.

In his heart, he silently mourned for a second those reckless brutes.

Why provoke anyone else when you insist on provoking these two living Yama Kings!

Fu Hanxiu and Fu San, who had concealed their aura not far away, witnessed this scene.

"Tch, these clueless idiots dare to have designs on the young master! Your Majesty, do you need me to take care of them?"

Fu San cracked his fists, eager to try.

Fu Hanxiu's eyes were cold; he shook his head and said, "No need. Have someone keep an eye on them."

Fu San nodded.

Indeed, how could these rookies be a match for the young master?

The young master could kill them with a single finger!

Nevertheless, Fu San prudently dispatched several strong Dark Guards to secretly monitor Fu Qianchen and Mo Xiaohu, just in case.

Fu Hanxiu's distant gaze fell upon not far away, locking onto that graceful figure on the Xuanwu Platform like a hawk.

In those deep, far-reaching eyes, a complex emotion surfaced.

Having experienced his parents' betrayal, he thought he would spend his life alone. He had never even imagined that one day he would fall for someone.

But fate played a joke on him.

He not only had a child, but also someone he liked.

For the first time in his life, he felt that past years were lonely as snow; the cold stillness in his chest showed a tendency to beat, even his blood seemed to shout with impulse, yearning to walk hand in hand with that person for the rest of their lives.

Where his gaze fell, the woman's posture was like a willow, her features like a painting; the early summer breeze lifted her flowing black hair. A faint smile curled her lips, as if sweetness seeped into his heart.

Fu Hanxiu couldn't help but raise his lips, revealing a tenderness and indulgence he himself hadn't anticipated.

On the Xuanwu Platform, Ye Sisi suddenly stepped forward, walking toward Ye Qingran amid the crowd's puzzled gazes, stopping when she was only a few feet away.

"Ye Qingran, do you know why I proposed a challenge against you?"

Ye Sisi's voice could be heard only by the two of them.

Before Ye Qingran could speak, she proudly said, "Because I've long known your secret!"

"Without the Tiger King Pill, you're a waste with no spiritual root—what do you have to compare with me?"

Ye Qingran opened her mouth, a look of wanting to speak but stopping, as if her huge secret had been exposed, leaving her unable to accept it for a moment.

"You... you actually knew?"

Seeing Ye Qingran's expression, Ye Sisi felt even more triumphant: "Otherwise, why would I be fighting you for the Tiger King Pill?"

"That said, I still want to thank you."

Ye Qingran: "???"

What's going on?

Ye Sisi wants to thank her?

Thank her for what?

Ask her to eat shit for free?

No need!

"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have known about the Tiger King Pill's existence, nor would I have broken through to Mysterious King so quickly because of it!"

So that's how it is!

Ye Qingran more or less understood.

Her mouth twitched involuntarily.

She actually really wanted to tell Ye Sisi, your advancement to Mysterious King was purely coincidental and has nothing to do with the Tiger King Pill!

Because all you've ever eaten is shit!
