Since Shui Qianrou came back from the Kingdom War, she had been in seclusion. Shui Youlan mentioned that once her strength attained the peak stage of the Soul Travel Realm, she would be bestowed with the Flaming Phoenix. She had the Astral Body of Heaven that only appeared every one million years, which allowed her to cultivate with the speed of a rocket. The place where she secluded herself, the Starfall Hall, was also a unique artifact that belonged to Shui Youlan. The heaven and earth energy within the place was several dozen denser than the outside out. She had just broken through to the Soul Travel Realm; hence, she exited her seclusion with a pleased mood and an intention to earn praises from Shui Youlan.
She didn’t get to see Shui Youlan; according to the grand elder of the Water Moon Observatory, Shui Youlan had gone on a trip. This made her pleasant mood immediately turn bad, and when she heard that there was a special guest on Starfall Island, her mood turned even worse.
Jiang Yi!
What was she diligently cultivating for? Wasn’t it to take revenge on Jiang Yi? She had never suffered any kind of setbacks since she was young, and who wouldn’t treat her like an ancestor wherever she went? Shui Youlan’s excessive pampering had nurtured Shui Qianrou into a domineering and arrogant individual.
The first time she encountered Jiang Yi, her Black Qilin—which accompanied her since young—had been incinerated by him. He even destroyed her saint artifact, Spirit Sparrow Gown. Afterward, during the Kingdom War, she experienced the feeling of death which she would never forget. Had it not been for Shui Youlan’s interference, she would be dead by now.
She, who had never liked cultivating, actually went into seclusion immediately after she returned. Now that she had some small achievements and had come out of seclusion, the first news that she got was that Jiang Yi had visited Starfall Island and was residing here without any reservation. How could she not be enraged?
All the anger in her heart was poured into this blade. She wanted to chop Jiang Yi up into eighteen pieces in order for her to vent off all the suffering that she had experienced.
“Hmph!”
Jiang Yi saw Shui Qianrou’s resentful eyes which were filled with killing aura. He was rather agitated when he saw that she was truly trying to kill him, but Shui Youlan and the elders from the Water Moon Observatory actually stood by the side and weren’t going to interfere.
“Soul-Devouring Shifting Art!”
A level of an opponent like Shui Qianrou was nothing different from crushing an ant. Jiang Yi’s body flashed with white light as he vanished from where he stood and appeared beside Shui Qianrou in the next second. His hands turned into venomous snakes and grabbed her arm. Before she could even react, he struck her wrist with lightning speed. Shui Qianrou felt pain in her hand, and that longsword—which was obviously a saint artifact—was disarmed and shot out. As it shot into a rockery, it emitted a clear and crisp sword sound.
“Silk Hand!”
Jiang Yi hands then wrapped around and bound Shui Qianrou’s jade hands. With a gentle lift, her body stumbled to the front; and she nearly fell flat on her face.
“Jiang Yi, I am going to kill you. I will kill you!” Shui Qianrou struggled to stand firmly while her hands turned into hundreds of claw shadows, which clawed at Jiang Yi in a frenzy.
Jiang Yi didn’t even dodge or evade, he reached out with a single hand and easily caught hold her hand. This time, he pulled hard and sent Shui Qianrou flying, crashing, and tumbling on the surface of the ground.
“Young Lady Qianrou, I am a guest in your house. Is this how you treat your guest?”
Jiang Yi was in a hurry to see Jiang Xiaonu, and he didn’t have the mood to play around with Shui Qianrou. Seeing that Shui Youlan was around, he naturally wouldn’t hurt Shui Qianrou; but he still didn’t have any good impression towards this spoiled lass.
“Ahh! Ahh! Ahh!”
Shui Qianrou struggled to stand while her absolutely beautiful face, which was comparable to Su Ruoxue, was so angry when she yelled out. A black bow appeared in her hands when her ancient divine essence ring lit up. She utilized her essence force to draw the bow while a black feathered arrow pierced through the air. The cold intent from the tip of the arrow caused Jiang Yi’s heart to shiver.
Shui Youlan sure has plenty of saint artifacts!
Jiang Yi didn’t dare to block it and immediately instant-shifted behind Shui Qianrou. This time, he didn’t reserve himself. He lifted his leg and kicked her round and perky butt ruthlessly, sending her flying again.
He then yelled out coldly, “Young Lady Qianrou, your strength cannot even withstand a single blow from me. Even if you have ten-thousand saint artifacts, I can still crush you like an insect. Would you please stop humiliating yourself?”
“Ahh! Jiang Yi, you actually dare to kick this Young Lady’s butt? I will kill you, kill you!”
Shui Qianrou climbed back up and rubbed her butt which had this dull pain. She was instantly ashamed and enraged. What kind of status did she have? There were numerous princes and young masters who wanted to hold her hand but didn’t have that opportunity. Jiang Yi actually dared to kick her butt?
She threw the black longbow in her hands on the ground with hatred and clawed at Jiang Yi in a frenzy. This time, she didn’t use any kind of martial skill and just randomly clawed at Jiang Yi like a madwoman.
“Hmph!”
Jiang Yi was utterly infuriated as his hands reached with lightning speed and grabbed Shui Qianrou’s hand again. This time, he grabbed two hands, clamping with steel-like pincers which immobilized her. At the same time, his knee struck at Shui Qianrou’s small abdomen, pressing against her body. His other hand then continuously slapped on her butt.
Slap! Slap! Slap!
The crisp and clear sound resonated. This time, Jiang Yi didn’t reserve himself as he would use strength with every slap, slapping Shui Qianrou’s butt so hard that it was blossoming. The slaps had stunned her, causing her to forget that she had to resist.
Shui Youlan might have pampered Shui Qianrou and allowed her to be reckless most of the time, but she had a very traditional mindset. Shui Youlan once sternly spoke to Shui Qianrou that if she dared to behave immorally before marriage, Shui Youlan would never acknowledge Shui Qianrou as her daughter again. Hence, Shui Qianrou had been very mindful about this factor. Despite all those men who tried to woo her on the continent, she never once let anyone hold her hand. Right now, Jiang Yi actually… dared to touch one of her body’s most private areas and was hitting it with strength?
Slap! Slap! Slap!
Jiang Yi was slapping to his heart’s content. Shui Qianrou’s butt was very bouncy, and it felt rather good to slap it. He slapped viciously for more than a dozen times before he tugged hard on her hands and tossed her into the distant bushes. When he saw her turned around while glaring at him with resentment, he grinned and said, “Why? Not convinced? Why not I use only one hand? You can use whatever method you can. If you can kill me, then I will admit that you are capable!”
Hoo-Hoo!
Shui Qianrou got up with haste and glared at Jiang Yi with hatred, but she realized the fact that she wasn’t a match for Jiang Yi. Even after she used all her methods, she would never be able to hurt Jiang Yi.
She clenched down on her silver tooth and stomped her foot. “Jiang Yi, wait right here. I will look for Grandma Hun and Grandmother Meng. I will get them to kill you!”
“Hold it right there!”
Just as Shui Qianrou was about to turn around, Jiang Yi immediately yelled out. He had this mocking face as he spoke, “Shui Qianrou, is your brain filled with feces? Why didn’t anyone come here after such a huge commotion? Do you still not understand? No one can help you. Even if I were to torment you, no one would appear.
“Furthermore… apart from losing and screaming for help, don’t you know anything else? You are just one year younger than me, right? You have the backing of the Water Moon Observatory, possessed such beneficial conditions and countless resources, and only just broke through to the Soul Travel Realm. Aren’t you ashamed? If it was me, I would rather die by crashing into tofu!
“You are already sixteen years old. If you were a commoner, you would already be a mother of a few children. You still behave like a child. Do you know how many times your mother had to wipe your ass and worry about you? Hurhur… with the likes of you, you would have died innumerable times if you didn’t have your mother! Useless!”
Jiang Yi scolded vehemently and reprimanded severely without any reserve. His eyes of mockery and criticism had deeply affected Shui Qianrou. Since a young age—let alone being insulted like this, she had never been loudly reprimanded by Shui Youlan. Moreover, Jiang Yi was around the same age as her, which caused her to be instantly ashamed; and she wished she could turn Jiang Yi into mincemeat.
Fortunately, she wasn’t a complete fool; and she knew that today was a special occasion. If she was to continue attacking Jiang Yi, she would just be humiliating herself. This Jiang Yi devil wasn’t a regular individual, and he even nearly killed her. If he even dared to slap her butt until it was blossoming, he might really have to guts to do anything he wanted.
“Hmph! Shui Qianrou, don’t look at me with those eyes. You aren’t qualified! If you have the guts, you should cultivate diligently and use your own strength to defeat me. When that day comes, I will take back my words today. Otherwise, I would like to trouble you not to appear in front of me again. I will only feel disgusted!”
Jiang Yi sneered again and left leisurely. Shui Qianrou had been staring at Jiang Yi with resentment while she could still feel this fiery pain on her butt. She was totally unaware of the pain as the sting in her heart was much worse.
“Wa! Wa! Wa!”
After Jiang Yi had left this palace hall, Shui Qianrou finally couldn’t hold it anymore. She fell on the ground and cried her heart and lungs out. She grieved so much that she wanted to be dead. The strange thing was, even at this moment, no one came.
“Hostess!”
In fact, they were people lining up outside the palace hall. Many elders looked at the indifferent Shui Youlan anxiously. They were itching to enter the hall and pacify their little princess.
“Let her cry until she is contented!”
Shui Youlan had an indifferent expression and didn’t have any trace of urgency. Instead, she praised and nodded. “Jiang Yi has done us a great favor this time. Qianrou has the Astral Body of Heaven, and she might smash the limits and attain an even higher realm. After the humiliation from Jiang Yi this time, Qianrou would either sink into oblivion or strive to chase after with Jiang Yi as her target! I understand my daughter, and Jiang Yi might have helped us create an exceptional martial expert that would shake the world. Hehe… Jiang Yi might have some great troubles in the future!”
