"Ye Feng, are you showing your Twin Martial Souls because you are looking for a fight!?"
"Since we participated in the national competition for Senior Soul Masters on the Continent, we haven't had a chance to spar again. How about we have a proper spar today, what do you think?"
"Or are you afraid to take me on one-on-one!"
Zhu Zhuyun said, confronting him at this moment.
She wanted to prove herself in front of everyone, and she wanted to do it within her own family.
As a guest in the Xingluo Empire, Ye Feng was not considered an outsider in Zhu Zhuqing's heart; he was her mentor, guiding her skills.
Who wouldn't like such a teaching mentor!
"Zhu Zhuyun, you'd better think this through. Once we start fighting, there's no backing out," Ye Feng said with a cold demeanor.
He looked at Zhu Zhuyun's eyes, full of determination.
It seemed this woman needed to fight to find her internal balance. She was challenging his presence!
She was looking to satisfy a deep desire within herself!
"No, it's not right to start fighting as soon as we meet. Grandmaster, you should rest well today. You must be exhausted from traveling all day."
"I will take you to rest first, and call you later for dinner."
"What do you think about that?" Zhu Zhuqing asked Ye Feng.
She was worried that her Grandmaster was too tired and there was no need for him to fight with her sister Zhu Zhuyun.
She knew her sister always liked to prove herself in front of others!
Zhu Zhuqing saw that both her mentor and Zhu Zhuyun had already released their Martial Souls.
At this moment, her heart rejected their actions!
"My dear sister, what's this all about? Could it be that you've fallen for him? I can't be wrong, Dai Mubai is available and you don't like him but go for this guy!"
"My goodness, sister, if the elders find out, they will surely look down on our family. And Ye Feng is certainly not good enough for you!"
"Don't forget the rules set by our family that you must follow. You are meant to marry Dai Mubai, you are practically already his wife. If Dai Mubai finds out about your unusually close relationship with Ye Feng, he will surely kill him, and no explanation will suffice then," Zhu Zhuyun said.
She sure knew a lot, being Zhu Zhuqing's sister after all.
On the surface, they were blood relatives, but in their hearts, they were no longer close sisters!
Dai Mubai was the third Prince of the Xingluo Empire, betrothed to Zhu Zhuqing from a young age!
This was an arrangement made privately by their parents.
"Zhu Zhuyun, shut your mouth; you've really gone too far. Is it appropriate for you to say such things? I clearly tell you that I will never marry Dai Mubai. If you like him, I will support you being together and wish you happiness."
"Also, Grandmaster is my mentor. Honestly, from the bottom of my heart, I really do like him, but there are many kinds of liking, and my feelings for the Grandmaster are not what you think. Our relationship is purely professional," said Zhu Zhuqing.
"You need to realize if what you just said was wrong. How can you treat your own sister this way? Aren't you afraid of retribution, Zhu Zhuyun? You are going too far."
At that moment, Zhu Zhuqing spoke with anger in her posture.
Her own sister's words had almost made her heart explode with rage!
She had brought up the person she hated the most. Ever since Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang expelled her, her relationship with Dai Mubai had been severed.
She had no intention of having any relationship with Dai Mubai!
She despised this man deeply—he was nothing but a playboy!
The crowd looked on, puzzled!
Including her mentor.
At this moment, Ye Feng's brain was in chaos; this caught him completely off guard.
"What is this!??"
"???"
What in the world!
Weren't we just talking about a spar with Zhu Zhuyun!?
And now the sisters are fighting!
This is incredibly awkward.
Ye Feng stood there, not knowing what to do.
He watched the two sisters argue, all because of the conflict sparked over him.
"Ye Feng, it's not your place to speak," snapped Zhu Zhuyun.
"You have one minute to leave, or I'll have you thrown out."
The scene was awkward.
Zhu Zhuyun said with a resentful attitude.
"I never said I wouldn't leave. I'll just leave later. Is it a problem for me to want to see Student Zhu Qing today? After all, it's not forbidden, right? Moreover, it was Zhu Qing who invited me several times to visit your Xingluo Empire. Are you really this unwelcoming? As her sister, you're being rather stingy, aren't you?"
"If other empires knew about a sister like you, or if someone accidentally mentioned it, what would they think of your family? You would be throwing your family's face away."
Ye Feng said with a goodwill gesture.
If it weren't for Zhu Qing being in the Xingluo Empire, he might not have bothered to visit at all.
He just didn't expect to run into Zhu Zhuyun!
This could only mean he had seen a ghost!
Zhu Zhuyun's face darkened upon hearing this.
It seemed she had realized her mistake!!
On the other hand, Zhu Qing's face turned rosy.
She was somewhat embarrassed!
At this moment, her heart was incredibly warm. The Grandmaster was truly kind to her!
In this prestigious family, no one really cared about her; they all just used her for their own benefits!
"Hmph! I, Zhu Zhuyun, will do as I please. If I'm not mistaken, your family lives by the sea, right? You sure do stick your nose into everything, huh!"
Zhu Zhuyun said with a sarcastic tone.
"That's right, how did you know my family lives by the sea? You're really smart, aren't you? I certainly didn't tell you myself."
Ye Feng shrugged his shoulders.
"Alright, Zhu Zhuyun, didn't you say you really wanted to challenge me? I'll give you a chance. If you can beat me, I'll leave the Xingluo Empire immediately, as you wish."
Ye Feng spoke in a cold tone.
He had to take care of her bad temper!
She was too arrogant, even towards her own sister.
Whether she could beat him or not, it didn't really affect him much!
Ye Feng was ready to leave at any time.
He just didn't like being controlled by others!
"Bring it on. You think I'm afraid of you!?"
Zhu Qing spoke up.
Don't be too confident; you might end up hitting your own face!
"Hiss—!"
Their Martial Souls lit up again.
The Bloodthirsty Demon Scythe reemerged!
"Are you really going to fight, or can we not do this?"
At that moment, Zhu Qing asked.
"Don't be scared, Zhu Qing. We're just sparring. It won't hurt much. Be assured."
"I came here to find someone to spar with. It's perfect that your sister Zhu Zhuyun wants to as well. It's a rare opportunity to train."
Ye Feng consoled Zhu Qing.
And comforted her as well!
Would you believe his words?!
"This...this might not be a very good idea!"
Zhu Qing said.
"Zhu Qing, get out of the way and don't hinder me."
Her sister said resentfully.
Looking at Ye Feng before her, she felt it would be a shame not to teach him a lesson!
After all, if it's free, why not?
Dark clouds gathered!
