“This strike is one that I shall unleash in Yun’er’s place.”

　　Plop!

　　Qianbei Ye slowly raised his hand and a red light flashed from it. Instantly, Xia Chuxue felt a smooth, moist sensation on her cheek. She lifted her lashes as her eyes filled with shock.

　　“I beg you, let me…”

　　Before she could utter the last syllable, another ray of red light shot towards her. At that moment, she felt a searing pain in her eyes and the light in front of her completely disappeared into a pitch-black darkness.

　　“ARGH!!!”

　　Xia Chuxue shrieked heart-wrenchingly. Her small hands clasped onto her bleeding eyes as her body slumped onto the ground and curled into an agonized ball.

　　“This strike is the price for looking at me in that manner!”

　　It would be a mistake to think that was the only thing in store for her.

　　Qianbei Ye raised his hand and countless bolts of red light shot out from the palm of his hand. The light slashed mercilessly at Xia Chuxue’s body and it did not take very long for the elegant and pure-looking woman to become completely covered with blood. She looked as if she had just crawled out from a pool of blood.

　　However, not only was her outer appearance terrifying, the agony she was suffering was not something which any person could endure.

　　Xia Ming was hacked into a thousand pieces while she was stabbed in the heart by ten thousand swords!

　　Her flesh and her organs were all were riddled with gaping wounds. Her entire body was filled with closely-spaced cuts and there was not a single area which had escaped unhurt!

　　Xia Chuxue never expected that this man’s heart could be so cruel and ruthless. He does not even have a single shred of tender, protective feeling towards the fairer sex! Even when faced with such a beautiful woman as herself, he had still dealt her with such a merciless hand. Just how barbaric was this man?

　　“Gu Ruoyun, did you see that? Hahaha!” Xia Chuxue burst into a maniacal laugh under the unbearable pain, “This man’s methods are just that cruel. If you follow him, things will not end well for you! He’s no different from Lu Chen! Today, this man had willingly treated a woman with such cruelty. This is how he will treat you in the days to come. Based on his actions, you can tell that this man is cruel and without love!”

　　Gu Ruoyun stared at the bloodied Xia Chuxue and smiled serenely, “You’re comparing him with Lu Chen but in reality, they are worlds apart! Lu Chen is selfish and only cares about himself, he would hurt anyone as long as it benefits him in some way! Xiao Ye, on the other hand, may be cruel to everyone else in the world but as long as he is good to me, that is enough. So what if he were to kill everyone in the world one day? I will stand by his side and help him with whoever he wishes to fight against.”

　　When Qianbei Ye heard Gu Ruoyun’s true feelings, his initially cruel red eyes softened and his peerlessly beautiful features lit up with a smile that could bring a nation to its knees.

　　This was the woman that he has been searching for desperately for so many years. Even if he decides to kill the whole world one day, she would disregard all reason and stand by his side.

　　However, if he ever decides to slaughter the entire mainland, it would only be for one reason alone – it would all be for her sake!

　　Xia Chuxue sneered but her eyes now resembled two bloody eye sockets. The mocking smile on her bloody face looks absolutely eerie and sinister, it was a horrifying sight.

　　“Gu Ruoyun, I confess that I, Xia Chuxue, am to blame for my own calamity. However, all of you will have to pay the price as well, hahaha! There are so many powerful cultivators on this mainland. Based on your arrogant personalities, one day, someone will arrive to put you all in your place!”
