Chapter 107

Ye Xiuxiu looked at the little boy in front of her who had been knocked to the ground by herself, looking disheveled.

A feeling of pride welled up in her heart, and the corners of her mouth curled slightly.

She revealed a faintly contemptuous smile and taunted, "Your strength is so tiny."

However, to Ye Xiuxiu's surprise, the little boy she had easily shoved down quickly scrambled to his feet from the ground.

His movements were unusually agile, as if he had not been affected by that push at all.

After the little boy steadied himself, he immediately glared fiercely at Ye Xiuxiu, his eyes filled with anger and unwillingness, and he snarled through gritted teeth:

"You dare to push me!"

Facing the little boy's roar, Ye Xiuxiu showed not the slightest fear,

she merely curled her lip dismissively and replied, "You're trying to snatch my things, yet you won't let me push you?"

The little boy was obviously astonished by Ye Xiuxiu's answer,

he widened his eyes and exclaimed in disbelief, "What a joke!"

Next, he seemed to feel he had suffered a great insult,

his emotions grew increasingly agitated,

Seeing this, Ye Xiuxiu secretly amused herself,

she decided to tease the little boy a bit more,

thus she deliberately provoked, saying, "I haven't even beaten you yet!"

Upon hearing Ye Xiuxiu's words, the little boy flushed red with anger,

he let out a furious scream:

"You still want to beat me!"

"Let me beat you first,"

"I forgot to tell you, I'm a cultivator!"

Before his words even finished,

he suddenly felt a powerful aura burst forth from the little boy's body.

This aura was like a raging storm,

instantly enveloping Ye Xiuxiu.

Ye Xiuxiu discovered in shock,

that the opponent's cultivation was only at the Qi Refining Stage Level Three,

the little boy suddenly surged forward with a fierce momentum, lunging at Ye Xiuxiu,

it seemed he truly intended to give Ye Xiuxiu a taste of his own medicine.

A sly smile appeared on Ye Xiuxiu's face.

Ye Xiuxiu thought to herself:

"Turns out you're only at Qi Refining Stage Level Three; I thought you were something special! With your level, even if I barely use a bit of spiritual energy, I'd consider myself defeated!"

The corners of her mouth lifted slightly, revealing a faintly contemptuous smile.

At that moment,

the little boy came at Ye Xiuxiu like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey. Seeing this, Ye Xiuxiu

calmly threw a punch,

however, just as her fist was about to strike the little boy,

she suddenly realized her punch's force seemed a bit too strong.

Ye Xiuxiu silently cursed, hurriedly trying to pull back her strength,

lest she injure the little boy with a single blow.

After all, they were merely fighting over a peach,

there was no need to hurt anyone.

However, despite her best effort to reduce the force,

the power still seemed somewhat excessive,

only a loud "bang" was heard,

Ye Xiuxiu's fist landed solidly on the little boy's body.

The little boy was like a kite with its string cut,

he flew backward, then with a loud "thud" slammed heavily into a tree.

Immediately after,

the little boy fell from the tree like a rag doll,

with a "plop" sound,

his little face made intimate contact with the ground.

Seeing this, Ye Xiuxiu was dumbfounded, her mouth gaping open in astonishment,

she was speechless for a moment. After a while,

she stammered, "You… you… how are you so fragile?"

This remark was like the final straw that broke the camel's back,

it nearly made the little boy burst into tears on the spot.

The little boy held back his tears and struggled to his feet from the ground,

his little face was smeared with dirt and grass, looking quite disheveled.

The little boy glared at Ye Xiuxiu,

His eyes were filled with anger and grievance.

He felt that Ye Xiuxiu was really too bullying,

But even so, he still acted unusually stubborn,

unwilling to show weakness in front of Ye Xiuxiu.

The little boy stood with his hands on his hips, looking at Ye Xiuxiu,

"I'm telling you, don't think that just because I can't beat you I have no way to deal with you,"

"I'm telling you,"

"I've got people behind me!"

Saying this,

the little boy straightened his back ramrod straight.

Ye Xiuxiu asked curiously,

"You've got people behind you?"

"What kind of people?"

That little boy gave a cold snort,

"Say it and I'll scare you to death!"

"My dad is a top figure of Qingyun Sect's First Peak!"

Ye Xiuxiu was instantly surprised,

"The top figure of Qingyun Sect's First Peak?"

Isn't that the Sect Leader?

This brat, who's older than me, is actually the child of the Qingyun Sect Sect Leader?

Ye Xiuxiu instantly felt a bit panicked,

I hope I didn't cause trouble for my dad.

"Hehe,"

that little boy suddenly laughed,

"How about it, can't you handle it?"

Ye Xiuxiu gave a cold snort,

"What can't you handle,"

"what does it matter that you've got people behind you?"

The little boy stood with his hands on his hips, glaring angrily at Ye Xiuxiu,

his face full of unwillingness to concede.

"I'm telling you, don't think that just because I can't beat you I have no way to deal with you!"

He shouted loudly, his voice revealing a hint of unwillingness and anger.

"I'm telling you,"

The little boy seemed to want to say something more,

but he suddenly paused, as if considering how to phrase it.

Then he straightened his back, looking somewhat proud as he said:

"I've got people behind me!"

Ye Xiuxiu, hearing that, showed a curious expression on her face,

couldn't help but ask: "You've got people behind you? What kind of people?"

Seeing that, the little boy became even more pleased, gave a cold snort, and then raised his voice:

"Say it and I'll scare you to death! My dad is a top figure of Qingyun Sect's First Peak!"

Ye Xiuxiu, upon hearing that, was instantly shocked to the point of being unable to close her mouth.

"The top figure of Qingyun Sect's First Peak?"

Isn't that just the Sect Leader? She thought to herself,

This brat, who's not much older than me, is actually the child of the Qingyun Sect Sect Leader?

Thinking this, Ye Xiuxiu's heart involuntarily began to panic.

She worried that her recent actions might cause trouble for her father.

After all, offending the Sect Leader's child,

the consequences are unimaginable.

However, just as Ye Xiuxiu was lost in thought,

that little boy suddenly burst out laughing, his laughter full of mockery and pride.

"Hehe, how about it, can't you handle it?"

He looked provocatively at Ye Xiuxiu, seeming quite satisfied with her reaction.

Ye Xiuxiu, seeing that, had her panic instantly replaced by unwillingness to concede.

She gave a cold snort and retorted:

"What can't you handle? What does it matter that you've got people behind you?"

The little boy, without another word, flopped onto the ground with a 'plop',

and then let out two 'hehe' laughs.

All one could see was him lying on the ground, covering his stomach with his hands,

putting on a show of great pain.

He kept shouting, "Give me the peach you just ate, or I'll tell my dad you knocked me down and I can't get up!"

Ye Xiuxiu heard this and suddenly felt rather bewildered,

She widened her eyes, her face full of question marks, and thought to herself:

"What's going on? When did I hit him?"

So she hurriedly explained:

"No, are you even being reasonable? Clearly you were the one who lunged at me just now, and I reacted like that—I didn't hit you at all, okay?"

The little boy lay on the ground, looked up at Ye Xiuxiu with a roguish expression, and said dismissively, "I don't care—no one saw it, so whatever I say goes!"

Ye Xiuxiu heard this, the corners of her mouth twitched up slightly, revealing a sly smile,

She thought, "Oh? No one saw it, huh? Well, that makes things easy."

Only see her slowly walking toward the little boy, murmuring:

the words: "Since no one saw it, then whatever I say goes…"

Seeing this, the little boy suddenly felt a pang of panic,

his face turned a bit pale, and a fine sheen of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Just then, Ye Xiuxiu suddenly shouted:

"Xiao Jin, keep watch for me!"

The little boy, upon hearing that, was instantly scared out of his wits,

his face showed a terrified expression,

he kept shouting:

"I'm telling you, my dad is a top figure in the first peak of the Qingyun Sect! Ah! Ah! Ah! Don't hit me! Don't hit me! I was wrong! Ah! Sister, I was wrong!"

……

Miserable cries rose and fell, seemingly without end,

making anyone who hears them feel involuntary pity.

However, Ye Xiuxiu paid no attention to any of this,

her fists rained down on the little boy like raindrops,

each strike packed full force.

Until Ye Xiuxiu felt she had beaten him enough,

she then stopped her hands.

She looked at the little boy before her, bruised and swollen from her beating, felt no guilt at all, and instead let out a cold snort:

"Hmph, you actually dared to threaten me!"

Ye Xiuxiu casually clapped her hands, apparently quite pleased with her "masterpiece."

She turned to slip away, after all there were only the two of them here,

as long as she ran fast enough, the little boy would surely not find her.

"We haven't seen each other today, okay!"

Ye Xiuxiu said without turning back,

"The Qingyun Sect is so huge, you could never find me. Besides, if you dare to go complain, I'll hit you every time I see you!"

The little boy's body was covered with tears of grievance,

he sobbed while shouting:

"You hit me! Wah wah wah! My dad never hit me this hard! I'm calling my dad right now!"

Ye Xiuxiu heard this, the corner of her mouth twitched up slightly in a hint of disdain: "I'd like to see what you can do to summon someone."

The little boy was obviously angered by Ye Xiuxiu's attitude,

He immediately opened his mouth, exerted all his strength, and let out a loud shout: "Dad!"

This shout, so loud, was practically deafening.

Though the little boy is young and not strong,

but his voice is unusually loud,

that resonant voice rang out like a thunderclap, carrying far away.

Ye Xiuxiu was startled by this sudden bellow,

she couldn't help but freeze, staring at the little boy with a shocked expression,

she muttered to herself:

"You call that 'summoning'? Just shouting?"

At the very moment the sound faded,

Ye Xiuxiu suddenly felt a strong gust of wind sweep in.

She widened her eyes in astonishment,

only to see that Jinhua cat dash over like lightning,

and pounce straight into her arms,

its mouth still emitting nonstop "meow" sounds.

At the same time, a white-clad figure appeared like a ghost,

instantly appearing beside the little boy.

Upon closer look, it turned out to be a young man in white robes.

He looked to be about twenty, with handsome features and an extraordinary bearing.

The little boy, upon seeing the white-robed youth, seemed to have found a reliance,

He immediately stopped crying, then hugged his leg and said tearfully:

"Dad! Someone hit me! They beat me terribly! You must help me get revenge!"

Ye Xiuxiu, seeing this, instantly turned extremely embarrassed.

She never expected that she would actually summon the Sect Master so quickly.

At this moment, she only felt a chill rising from her spine,

secretly thinking "oh no," this time she might have really caused a huge disaster.

Who could have expected that this little boy's shout,

could actually directly summon the Sect Master here,

and arrive so quickly.

What also surprised Ye Xiuxiu was,

that this Sect Master looked so young.

The white-robed youth looked at the little boy with heartache,

quickly took out a pill from his bosom and without hesitation fed it into his mouth.

In the blink of an eye, the boy's injuries healed at a visible speed.

After the boy's injuries healed,

the white-robed youth then slowly raised his head and directed his gaze toward Ye Xiuxiu.

The little boy glared at Ye Xiuxiu with a fierce aura, his face full of anger,

as if Ye Xiuxiu were his mortal enemy.

His voice was sharp and high-pitched, with a hint of provocation and threat:

"My dad is here, let's see how you can still be arrogant!"

Then he added viciously:

"Anyone who dares to hit me is doomed!"

At the same time, the white-robed youth stood aside, his gaze like a torch, fixed tightly on Ye Xiuxiu.

His eyes were sharp and profound, as if they could see every thought in Ye Xiuxiu's heart.

He examined Ye Xiuxiu carefully, missing no detail, as if confirming something important.

Suddenly, the white-robed youth seemed to have discovered some shocking secret,

his body shuddered violently,

then he quickly stepped forward. His steps were light and agile,

like a gust of wind, arriving before Ye Xiuxiu in the blink of an eye.

The little boy saw his dad rushing forward so quickly,

his feeling of pride grew stronger.

He felt his father would definitely back him up,

letting Ye Xiuxiu receive the punishment she deserves.

However, just then, the white-robed youth suddenly spoke, his voice low and gentle, yet it left everyone stunned.

"Little Junior Sister?"

The white-robed youth said softly, his tone revealing a hint of doubt and uncertainty.

The little boy's expression froze instantly, he widened his eyes,

looking at his father in disbelief. And Ye Xiuxiu was equally stunned; she never expected the white-robed youth to address her like that.

"Dad, what are you calling her?" the little boy stammered, his voice full of shock and confusion.

Ye Xiuxiu was even more shocked, unable to close her mouth, she widened her eyes,

staring straight at the white-robed youth,

as if seeing a complete stranger.

"Sect Master, why are you calling me Little Junior Sister?"

Her voice trembled slightly, obviously still not recovered from the shock.

The white-robed youth also seemed at a loss due to this sudden situation, he gazed blankly at Ye Xiuxiu and muttered:

"Sect Master? When did I become the Sect Master?"

All three people were completely dumbfounded.
