He, instead, was truly suffering a fate worse than death!

　　If he was really about to be cut a thousand times, he would much rather die on the spot and be done with it!

　　Xia Chuxue curled into a ball, her entire face was filled with terror and she could not stop her body from trembling.

　　Even though that knife was only cutting through Xia Ming’s body, she could feel his immense agony as well and this fear drove Xia Chuxue to the brink of madness.

　　“Please, I beg of you, spare me. I beg you, spare me.”

　　Thud!

　　Xia Chuxue’s legs gave way. She knelt on the ground as she exclaimed with tears in her eyes, “I don’t want to eat the Soul Gnawing Fruit nor do I want to be hacked into a thousand pieces. I’ll do anything as long as you spare me!”

　　Suddenly, she seems to remember something and quickly scurried towards Qianbei Ye.

　　“Sir, I would willingly become your slave as long as you let me go. I will serve you and my sister for the rest of my life.”

　　Qianbei Ye understood very well the meaning behind her word ‘serve’.

　　Instantly, his blood-red eyes flashed with hatred as he roared icily, “Go away!”

　　Bang!

　　A great wave of energy exploded from Qianbei Ye. Xia Chuxue’s hand, which had been holding onto him, was immediately amputated. Blood began to spew out of the stump and her body was flung a distance away, landing heavily against a wall. Blood also began to splatter from her mouth.

　　This man is completely heartless! She thought.  I’m still the most beautiful woman in Drifting Wind Country yet he hah been able to withstand the seduction of such a beautiful woman like me? Could it be that he was unable to suppress his sexual urges and my words had provoked him?

　　That’s right, that must be it!

　　She simply could not believe that any man could be so devoted to only one woman for the rest of his life!

　　Before Xia Chuxue could step out from her fantasies, the man in crimson robes was already right in front of her. She does not know why but when she stared up at the man’s tall figure, Xia Chuxue felt a powerful weight upon her which nearly caused her to suffocate.

　　“Sir, I beg you, please spare me…”

　　Even now, she was still trying to appeal to him and persuade him to have tender, protective feelings for the fairer sex on account of her being a woman and to spare her life. Once she has entered this man’s mansion, she would have other ways to deal with Gu Ruoyun!

　　“How have you treated Yun’er in the past?”

　　Qianbei Ye smiled.

　　However, while his smile looked magnificent, it gave Xia Chuxue a rather malicious feeling.

　　As if the man before her would kill her mercilessly.

　　“I…”

　　Xia Chuxue was about to explain herself until she saw the bloodthirsty look in the man’s eyes. All her words became stuck in her throat, rendering her unable to make a sound.

　　“Then again, even if you don’t say a thing, I could guess at it myself.” Qianbei Ye gently raised his eyes. His peerlessly beautiful features lit up with a bloodthirsty smile, “However you’ve treated her in the past, I’m going to return it all to you a hundred times more! Yun’er is the love of my life and is also the lover that I’ve been searching desperately for for over ten thousand years! I will never let anyone hurt her.”

　　He has indeed been searching for her for many years.

　　How could he ever bear the sight of her being bullied by anyone?

　　“No!”

　　Xia Chuxue shook her head as her body shifted back. However, all that was behind her was an icy, cold wall. She had nowhere else to back into and could only look helplessly at the peerlessly handsome man before her with tears in her beautiful eyes.

　　Yunyao and the other spiritual beasts all glared at Xia Chuxue with revulsion.

　　Qianbei Ye has already made it very clear yet she still wants to try and strike a deal. If that’s not looking for death, then what is? Knowing Qianbei Ye’s methods, this woman’s fate probably wouldn’t be any better than Xia Ming’s or Lu Chen’s.
