-

Emperor Yuansheng tripped on his words multiple times before he could ask, “… Brother Bodhi, did you fall into a pit of bears What sort of overgrown dog ambushed you”

“Whats that supposed to mean” Abels grouched.

In consideration of Abels royalty status, Emperor Yuansheng tried to choose his words carefully, but it only confused the former. In turn, Abels annoyance almost prompted the guards around Emperor Yuansheng to draw their weapons and Lai Jingzhen to wake up.

Emperor Yuansheng wagged his hands to settle his subordinates. “So, I meant to ask, what happened to your face”

“My face” Abels touched his nose. “Oh, hahaha, I ran into a bandit. He dashed after we had three hundred exchanges. I just got clipped a little.”

Expecting Emperor Yuansheng to keep his cool at this point was being unreasonable. Lai Jingzhen couldnt be relied on. Luo Ming hadnt even spoken to him. All his other elites hadnt reached Divine Realm. Even Abels couldnt stop his opponent from getting away now If Abels opponent could light his face up, what would happen if Emperor Yuansheng fought the same opponent Was there such a thing as a safe zone anymore Suffice to say, Abels wouldnt tell Emperor Yuansheng he ran into Ming Feizhen at the rear, though.

Ming Feizhen made a flashy, windy entrance and said, “Brother Bodhi, please give me some pointers,” before unleashing Enlightenment on Abels. In spite of Abels extensive martial arts knowledge, he still marvelled at the infinite variations of Ming Feizhens style centred around manipulation of barely-visible threads. Rather than say Abels couldnt make heads or tails of the skills, itd be more precise to say that he didnt get any chance to.

Abels had to go up to the sixth level of Evil Eminence Domain to stay in the game against the whirlwind-like assault. The longer the fight drew out, the more distance Ming Feizhen put between them. As such, Abels couldnt get in to make the most of his expertise in close-quarters combat.

At a certain point, Ming Feizhen stopped to tell Abels, “Luo Ming has seen up to here. When Luo Ming posed as you, he had an easier time than you using purely Evil Eminence Scripture.”

As much as it ground Abels gears to hear the mention of Luo Ming, he didnt believe Ming Feizhens attack and information was aimless.

“Want to see how I beat Luo Ming”

The smirk on Ming Feizhens face rubbed Abels the wrong way, but Abels nodded despite it possibly being solely provocation.

After one move, Abels, standing on desolate land, lost any will to fight. Up until that moment, he had contemplated how big was the gap between him and the man who beat Heavenly Swordsman when he was armed with Purple Forbidden Enclosure Dragon Slayer. Subsequent to witnessing how Luo Ming was defeated, Abels realised how much a time-wasting endeavour it was for him to even bother comparing a rabbit to an eagle. It finally answered why Luo Ming was seemingly stuck in a mental mire. No amount of analytical skill could compensate for the discrepancy in raw might.

“Luo Ming was able to force me to go this far. How do you think you compare”

Sea Deer Hunter already bandaged Abels internal injuries, but he couldnt recover the level of his skill he used to have. The root of his situation wasnt physical; the main reason he plateaued was the sword and its wielder that took his brothers lives and almost everything he cared about. Calmness doesnt erase anger. The deeper magma is buried, the more violent it gushes out when its container blows.

Abels didnt take advantage of Luo Mings injured state to get his revenge for no reason other than because he looked down on those who chased tainted victories. Abels didnt need to be told Luo Mings power was necessary if they were to take down the beast, but if Luo Ming could recover enough to fight the beast, Abels would have to take his revenge.

Ming Feizhen was cognisant of those points, and he was fully aware that persuasion wouldnt work. “If you want to kill Luo Ming for revenge, I cant stop you, nor do I have the time to interfere. What I want to ask is, what sort of warrior is Abels What sort of revenge does he want”

Though Abels didnt answer, he knew he had fallen into Ming Feizhens trap. “… I must kill the scum. Theres nothing to brag about if I cant beat him fair and square, nevertheless. Whether or not you can pull him out of his borderline-dead state is on you.”

Ming Feizhens silence was an irrefutable indication that even he wasnt confident he could motivate Luo Ming.

“What Challenged already Putting him aside, I havent fully recovered, either. You may have come here for nothing.”

“Thats simple to remedy.”

Thereafter, Ming Feizhen aimed every strike at Abels face without any reservations. When Ming Feizhen departed, Mountain Monster was heard yelling, “Go die, you dingbat! Piss off, you wanker!”

Recalling the beating he took, Abels smiled. Emperor Yuansheng interpreted Abels long pause and smile totally differently to how it shouldve been comprehended.

If even Brother Bodhi has been beat so bad that hes questioning life, doesnt that mean my useless subordinates are just forage for the bandits! If Im going to hope someone can help, I may as well help myself! I must!

“Brother Bodhi, just relax. I shall go see someone.”

The bandits who ambushed them avoided the direction Emperor Yuansheng ran in because that was where Luo Ming was located.

When I sneaked back into my tent without letting anyone notice, I caught Young Shiyi checking herself out at the makeup table. I went over on my toes and gently draped my arms over her shoulders.

Young Shiyi smiled and grabbed my arms as though she was aware I came back. “Finally done trolling”

“Ive trolled, but not enough.” I caressed Young Shiyis smooth face.

Although Young Shiyi clicked her tongue, she clearly enjoyed my touch. “I shall spare you on account of you being busy.”

“You can scold me if you like. Ill get to touch some more. Its not bad interest if you ask me.”

“Oho” Young Shiyi perked up her chest. “Go ahead. Touch however you desire. Id like to see how far you dare to go.” She laughed at my stupefied reaction, then scrubbed my head and got up. “Stop wasting time. You still have a schedule to get on with. You ready to meet the four states rulers”-
