Jin Yuan's face underwent a dramatic change as he looked at Ye Mengxian in disbelief, having not anticipated that this woman's strength was this formidable.
"How dare you lay a hand on me, Jin Yuan," Ye Mengxian said coldly. "Aren't you afraid I'll dismantle your tower?"
Jin Yuan's complexion turned ugly; being forced back by Ye Mengxian in front of his own disciples was truly embarrassing.
"Ye Mengxian, even if you are the granddaughter of Elder Tiankui, you cannot behave so recklessly!" said Jin Yuan through gritted teeth, though he did not make a move to strike again.
Ye Mengxian looked at Jin Yuan with disdain. "It seems it was you, Jin Yuan, who struck at me first. How has it become my recklessness?"
Upon hearing this, Jin Yuan felt a sudden shock in his heart, silently cursing his own impulsiveness. Ye Mengxian's previous provocations were deliberate, aimed to enrage him into attacking.
