Chapter 60: Whoever blocks, dies!

Only to see Ye Xiuxiu, like a kite with its string cut,

She fell straight toward the ground,

Accompanied by a muffled 'thud',

She crashed heavily onto the ground.

Bai Qingsia, seeing this, instantly turned deathly pale,

Fear filled her eyes, and she cried out in a shriek: "Xiuxiu!"

Before her words even finished,

she shot toward where Ye Xiuxiu lay like an arrow released from a bow,

and grabbed her, pulling her tightly into her arms.

"Xiuxiu, don't scare Mother!"

Bai Qingsia's voice trembled,

Tears swirled in her eyes, almost spilling over.

She never could have imagined,

that her daughter Ye Xiuxiu, whom she had always treasured like a jewel,

could be so fragilely killed. You see,

Ye Xiuxiu had trained in Military Body Fist for over a year,

her physical strength far surpassed that of an ordinary person,

yet now, before the enemy, she was utterly unable to withstand a single blow!

At the same moment, Liu Yuesong also blinked in surprise,

evidently he had not expected to succeed so easily.

At this very moment,

the Third and Fourth Madams standing aside all remained silent,

merely quietly watching everything that unfolded before them,

as if watching a play.

After all, among those present, only Bai Qingsia and Liu Yuesong had children,

while the others had failed to achieve that wish.

Seeing them with offspring, it was inevitable that a tinge of envy, jealousy, and hatred would arise in their hearts.

Moreover, as their cultivation advanced,

the desire to have offspring became ever more difficult.

Since Bai Qingsia and Liu Yuesong joyfully gained their daughters,

Ye Qingping doted on them even more,

making the situation for the others hoping to conceive even more difficult.

"Ye Ruyan, what exactly have you done!"

Bai Qingsia glared with eyes wide open,

her face full of anger as she roared at Ye Ruyan.

Her voice exploded like thunder in the air, deafeningly loud.

At this moment, Ye Ruyan stood there silently,

her gaze cold and merciless as she fixed it on Ye Xiuxiu's corpse.

All that could be seen was her slowly exhaling a long breath,

while inwardly rejoicing that she had finally managed to slay this formidable foe.

The innate arcane art that Ye Xiuxiu possessed was indeed powerful,

not something my false innate arcane art could match,

the tempered body it produced far exceeded imagination.

Had I not exerted all my strength,

and precisely struck Ye Xiuxiu's most vulnerable and deadly spot, the throat,

otherwise Ye Xiuxiu would certainly not have died.

Recalling that heart-pounding battle just now,

Ye Ruyan could not help but feel lingering fear.

Even if I had lessened my strength by the slightest bit back then, I probably would not have achieved my goal,

but instead would have been countered by Ye Xiuxiu.

However, for Ye Ruyan,

what she regrets most is not the hardship of this bitter fight,

but that Ye Xiuxiu's incredibly powerful body-refining technique would be lost to the world with her passing.

This body-refining technique is practically unparalleled under heaven,

if one could obtain and cultivate it,

it would surely elevate one's strength to a higher level.

Faced with Bai Qingsia's questioning and fury,

Ye Ruyan, however, remained unusually calm.

She put on an innocent, pitiful look, tears swirling in her eyes, and spoke softly:

"Madam, I'm sorry… I really didn't expect things to turn out like this… I was just momentarily careless… It's just that Xiuxiu is too formidable,"

I had no choice but to use all my tricks to cope...

Her words were full of grievance and helplessness,

As if she herself were the victim,

and all the blame should be placed on the already deceased Ye Xiuxiu.

Hearing Ye Ruyan's smooth-talking words,

Bai Qingsia trembled with rage, her face turning ashen.

She could no longer suppress her inner anger,

She roared at Ye Ruyan: "Get out! Get out of here!"

Ye Ruyan burst into tears with a wail,

"Auntie, don't be fierce with me!"

"Xiuxiu just died, but after you're harsh with me, it will cast a big shadow over me!"

"How will I live in the future!"

Hearing that,

Bai Qingsia almost couldn't hold back from slapping Ye Ruyan to death.

But she knew now wasn't the time to do such a thing,

A slap wouldn't kill her; Liu Yuesong had already prepared to block her,

Now we need to find a way to save Xiuxiu.

Bai Qingsia tightly held Ye Xiuxiu's body, which was gradually losing warmth, her heart feeling as if cut by a knife.

She could clearly feel Ye Xiuxiu's life fire dwindling bit by bit, while she was powerless.

Despair and anger intertwined,

prompting her to immediately clutch Ye Xiuxiu's corpse,

and she ran heedlessly toward the place where Ye Qingping was in seclusion.

At this moment,

In Bai Qingsia's heart, only finding Ye Qingping,

perhaps offered a sliver of hope to revive the already deceased Ye Xiuxiu.

However, just as Bai Qingsia was anxious,

Liu Yuesong suddenly stepped in front of her,

blocking her path.

Only seeing Liu Yuesong shout anxiously:

"Elder sister, what exactly are you trying to do? Are you intending to go find your husband?"

"No way, elder sister! Your husband is currently at a critical stage of closed-door cultivation; no one may disturb him."

"Not to mention Xiuxiu's unfortunate death; even if we all died right now, we must absolutely not disturb the husband!"

Hearing Liu Yuesong's words, Bai Qingsia's eyes instantly turned red,

as if her anger were about to erupt.

She gritted her teeth and roared: "Get out of my way!"

"Today, whoever dares to block me, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"Whoever blocks,"

"will die!"

Before her words even finished,

a mighty aura, surging like mountains and seas, burst forth from Bai Qingsia's body,

sweeping outward in all directions.

Faced with such a terrifying aura, Liu Yuesong felt her whole body tremble,

and a hint of fear rose in her heart.

She well knew she was no match for Bai Qingsia,

yet she was unwilling to just let Bai Qingsia pass.

For a moment, Liu Yuesong found herself in a dilemma,

cold sweat trickling down her forehead.

However,

how could the other few people just stand by?

They seemed to share a mutual understanding,

and without prior agreement, they all stood on the same front.

Only seeing those people move in unison,

stepping forward together,

in an instant they firmly blocked Bai Qingsia's path.

One of them spoke up:

"Elder sister, you'd better not disturb the husband."

They each had their own calculations in mind,

when Ye Qingping learns that it was Ye Ruyan who killed Ye Xiuxiu, he will certainly not let Ye Ruyan off lightly.

Thus, when that time comes,

these people will naturally be able to live easy lives.

At this very moment, the Jinhua cat was leisurely lying not far away,

It was quietly basking in the warm sunlight.

It watched with interest the open and covert struggles of the people before it,

It couldn't help muttering to itself:

"Humans, they really are combative!"

"But this bunch of guys is truly stupid. They actually fail to notice such a big living person."
