Chapter 156 Ye Xiu is abandoned again
“Cough, cough…” Ye Xiu was seriously injured, his face as pale as paper, each breath seeming exceptionally difficult.
At this moment, Ye Xiu was taking in little air and exhaling a lot, coughing violently, as if he would run out of breath at any moment.
“Ye Xiu, Brother, are you alright!” Ye Xiner was anxious, her steps staggering as she almost tumbled and crawled to Ye Xiu's front.
Seeing her brother covered in blood and on the verge of death, Ye Xiner’s heart felt like it had been stabbed fiercely by a knife, and tears welled up uncontrollably.
She trembled as she reached out, gently stroking Ye Xiu's blood-stained cheek, her voice choked with sobs: “Ye Xiu, Brother, don't… don't scare me…”
“I’m… I’m fine!” Ye Xiu forced a bitter smile.
Ye Xiu never imagined that Ao Yuan would have a way to circumvent the restrictions of the secret realm!
Just now, with Ao Yuan's claw attack, if he hadn't activated a secret technique in time, he would probably be dead by now.
“Ye Xiu, Brother, don’t… don’t talk anymore, okay? You’re badly injured…” Ye Xiner cried, tears streaming down her cheeks like rain.
Ji Ruoxi, in the distance, silently lowered her head, not daring to look directly at the dying Ye Xiu, her heart filled with guilt and inexplicable feelings.
Ji Ruoxi didn't understand why she felt a strange sadness, even though Ye Xiu was just an ordinary person from the lower realm, and a recognized good-for-nothing.
The Buddhist was shocked as he looked at Ao Yuan, a hint of retreat appearing in his eyes.
Dao-severing pinnacle! How is this possible!
The Dragon Race, this kind of heaven and earth overlord race, is recognized in the Five Domains and Four Seas for their slow cultivation. This Ao Yuan, the Emperor's son, is only over a thousand years old, how could he have cultivated to the Dao-severing pinnacle?
The attack just now also contained a hint of Saintly rhythm, which is clearly a sign of entering the Saint realm!
There are many special methods in the Five Domains and Four Seas to quickly improve one's realm, but the successors of the great forces would never use those methods.
“Xiner, don’t cry, your brother just suffered a minor injury, it’s nothing!” Ye Xiu said apologetically, trying to comfort her.
However, Ye Xin was not appeased by his words, and tears continued to flow.
Just then, a figure suddenly appeared in front of them.
“Is that so?” Ao Yuan’s indifferent voice rang out, and he teleported to Ye Xiu’s front.
Ao Yuan’s eyes were filled with majesty and coldness, making people shudder.
Seeing Ao Yuan, Ye Xiner immediately knelt down and pleaded in a trembling voice: “Emperor’s Son, please spare Ye Xiu, Brother.”
Her tears fell to the ground, splashing into droplets. Her eyes were filled with helplessness and sorrow, as if the whole world had lost its color.
“Emperor’s Son, please spare Ye Xiu, Brother, this once. As long as you can spare Ye Xiu, Brother, Xiner is willing to do anything!” Ye Xiner pleaded again, willing to pay any price to protect Ye Xiu.
“Xiner, don’t beg him, don’t beg this bastard!” Ye Xiu glared, his eyes bloodshot, his towering anger unyielding as he stared directly at Ao Yuan.
The blood in Ye Xiu's body surged wildly, and the shattered bones and meridians were rapidly recovering at an alarming rate.
Ao Yuan didn’t waste any words, but walked past Ye Xiner and toward Ye Xiu.
“Crack!”
With a crisp sound, Ye Xiu’s dantian was instantly shattered.
The blood flow throughout Ye Xiu’s body stagnated, and the speed of cell repair rapidly declined and stopped!
“Ye Xiu, Brother!” Ye Xiner’s face turned pale instantly, tears streaming down her face as she cried out in despair.
She couldn’t believe what was happening before her eyes, her heart aching to the point of being unable to breathe.
Sanzang could no longer suppress the anger in his heart, he stepped forward, glared at Ao Yuan, and roared indignantly: “Emperor’s Son Ao Yuan, crippling someone's cultivation, aren't you going too far!”
Sanzang came from the Buddhist sect and had a natural aversion to foreign races like Ao Yuan. Now seeing Ao Yuan actually crippling his friend, the anger in his heart erupted like a volcano.
He clenched his fists tightly, his whole body exuding a powerful aura, as if he would strike at any moment.
“You want to be my enemy?” Ao Yuan looked at the Buddhist Sanzang with interest.
The next second, a huge dragon claw attacked the Buddhist!
“Twelve Feet Golden Body!” Sanzang hurriedly activated all his defenses.
“Boom—!”
In just an instant, the huge dragon claw shattered the Great Dharma Master Sanzang’s defensive golden body!
[Ding, the host has successfully killed a Realm-level prodigy, gaining 500,000 Villain Points!]
“Villain Points, they’ve finally arrived!” Ao Yuan was overjoyed.
The system divides prodigies into different levels, and killing or defeating them earns corresponding Villain Points.
Killing yields the most, followed by defeating!
The levels of prodigies who can earn Villain Points are, from low to high: Third-rate, Second-rate, First-rate, Realm-level, Domain-level, Realm-Domain level.
In addition to talent, the Villain Points earned are also related to the cultivation level of the target being killed. The higher the cultivation level, the more Villain Points earned.
Conversely, if the cultivation level is low, even if the talent is unparalleled, the Villain Points earned will be reduced.
After all, only prodigies who grow up are true prodigies. Those who are obstructed along the way can only be considered extras.
“System, why does Sanzang, a Realm-level prodigy, only have 500,000 Villain Points?”
[Ding, Buddhist Sanzang was previously defeated by the Child of Destiny, Ye Xiu, and became one of Ye Xiu's stepping stones. Most of his Luck Value has been absorbed by Ye Xiu.]
“Ye Xiu can absorb Luck Value?”
[Ding, this is a unique ability of the Child of Destiny. As long as he is not completely killed, he will become stronger and stronger.]
Ao Yuan nodded, raising his attention to Ye Xiu to the highest level.
Since Luck can increase, then Ye Xiu cannot be allowed to leave his sight. In the end, a reasonable path of opportunity should be arranged for Ye Xiu to confuse his halo of Luck.
“Ao… Yuan!” Ye Xiu stared at Ao Yuan with a deadly gaze.
This was the second time, this was already the second time his cultivation had been crippled, all because of Ao Yuan, all because of Ao Yuan!
Compared to Ye Xiner's suffering, what made Ye Xiu even more angry was that Ao Yuan crippled his cultivation, and twice!
“Emperor’s Son… Emperor’s Son, please spare Ye Xiu, Brother!” Ye Xiner stumbled and crawled towards Ao Yuan, tightly hugging his thigh, as if grasping at the last straw.
“Emperor’s Son, now that Ye Xiu, Brother’s dantian has been crippled by you, he has lost all ability to resist. Please, for the sake of this servant serving you for three years, show mercy and spare Ye Xiu, Brother, this once!” Ye Xiner’s face was covered in tears, her voice trembling with deep pleading.
For the past three years, in order to get Yun Palace to withdraw the wanted order for Ye Xiu, Ye Xiner spared no effort, abandoning her dignity and serving Ao Yuan wholeheartedly for three whole years.
She was finally about to make it through, but Ye Xiu saw her, and his blood rushed to his head, offending Ao Yuan again…
Ye Xiner was helpless, but Ye Xiu was, after all, the brother who had taken care of her for more than ten years. Besides her, who else could save Ye Xiu?
“Xiner, don’t beg him, I won’t allow you to beg him!” Ye Xiu roared, his eyes tearing apart.
Although Ye Xiner was not his real sister, he had inherited the memories of the original Ye Xiu, and in his heart, he had long regarded this little girl Ye Xiner as his own sister.
Now, seeing Ye Xiner being humiliated by Ao Yuan because of him, and thinking about Xiner’s care for him when he was ‘reborn’ three years ago, and the grievances Xiner had suffered over the years, Ye Xiu’s heart was cut like a knife, and a strange anger filled his entire body.
It was both from the original Ye Xiu and from himself.
“Oh? Spare him? It’s not impossible! But…” Ao Yuan smiled with interest.
Hearing these words, hope suddenly rekindled in Ye Xiner’s heart, and she kowtowed repeatedly in gratitude: “Thank you, Emperor’s Son! Thank you, Emperor’s Son!”
“Xiner is willing, Xiner is willing to do anything, as long as the Emperor’s Son can spare Ye Xiu, Brother’s life, no matter what the request is, Xiner is willing to do anything.”
As long as she could save Ye Xiu, Ye Xiner was willing to pay any price; as long as she could let Ye Xiu, Brother, live, she was willing to do anything.
“Xiner, don’t, don’t agree to him! Don’t agree to him!” Ye Xiu cried out in grief.
Unfortunately, Ye Xiner did not listen, because she had to save her Ye Xiu, Brother.
[Ding, the host's Imperial Consort killed Ye Xiu's ancestor, Ye Lvti, destroying the Child of Destiny Ye Xiu's greatest opportunity in the lower realm. Ye Xiu's Luck Value plummeted by 800,000, and the host gained 8,000,000 Villain Points.]
[Ding, the host instantly killed the Child of Destiny Ye Xiu and personally crippled Ye Xiu's cultivation again. Ye Xiu was deeply shocked, and his mentality slightly collapsed. Ye Xiu's Luck Value plummeted by 100,000, and the host gained 1,000,000 Villain Points.]
[Ding, the host killed the Child of Destiny Ye Xiu's number one follower, Sanzang, severing one of Ye Xiu's main aids in the early stages. Ye Xiu's Luck Value was reduced by 10,000, and the host gained 100,000 Villain Points.]
[Ding, the Child of Destiny Ye Xiu learned that his sister Ye Xiner was humiliated because of him, his mentality collapsed, and his spirit was attacked. Ye Xiu's Luck Value plummeted by 600,000, and the host gained 6,000,000 Villain Points.]
[Ding, the Child of Destiny Ye Xiu learned that his life-saving benefactor Ji Ruoxi had her innocence taken away by the host, feeling guilty about Ji Ruoxi's situation. Ye Xiu lost one of the greatest opportunities in his life (the Primordial Yin of the Taiyin Body). Ye Xiu's Luck Value plummeted by 1,000,000, and the host gained 10,000,000 Villain Points.]
… …
A series of system broadcasts rang out, and Ao Yuan gained a total of 28,200,000 Villain Points, but for the debt, it was still a drop in the bucket…
