Chapter 979: Reason to Kill
Translator: RITF_Rain Editor: Chrissy
He wouldn't like to use other's hand to avenge himself. It was not what a hero should do!
That was why Ye Xiao didn't want those men to die here in Xuan Bing's hand.
Xuan Bing waved her hand to interrupt Ye Xiao's talking. She turned to Bai Bufan and blandly said, "Do you think I am being unreasonable not showing you mercy? I remember when I went to your sect, I told you to lock your sect for three years. Do you remember?"
Bai Bufan took a deep breath and said, "That's true. You did."
"So, let's just forget about the humiliation just now. Look at you. A group of your men showed up in this place. Don't you think you are disrespecting me?" Xuan Bing humphed. Her eyes were filled with murderous intent again. "You, the entire Saint Sunlight Sect, do you ever respect my words?"
Bai Bufan's eyes were full of despair.
[I have already killed my own man to make peace. She still got a new reason to kill us. She just never wants to give up with it.]
[She just wants to kill us!]
[She would kill us all. No matter what we say, she will always get a reason to start killing. She will find another reason!]
[We are never able to survive this today.]
Why did they get out their sect?
In fact, Saint Sunlight Sect had a reason to do so. Shadowless Assassin had been killing their disciples. The leadership could never just let him get away. They finally found the assassin and wounded him. After that, they surely had to find the wounded Shadowless Assassin and kill him once and for all! Bai Bufan and his men showed up in this place because they were here to kill Han Bingxue. Han Bingxue was a sworn enemy to Wu Huitian, also a good friend to Xiao Monarch. Saint Sunlight Sect had to kill him too!
They had a good reason to come out.
That was a good reason in the usual days!
However, Bai Bufan decided to stay silent.
He knew Xuan Bing would never approve it.
No matter what he said, it meant nothing to her!
He stood there, feeling cold and despair. He had learned how powerful Xuan Bing could be after what she just did to them. He knew that even if the eighteen of them fought together, they could never defend from one of Xuan Bing's palm strike!
Xuan Bing was sick! She was even more powerful than people said she was! Much more powerful!
To defeat Xuan Bing, maybe the seven most powerful elders of Saint Sunlight Sect together could have a chance!
However, with the seventeen people he had, he knew it was hopeless. Even if they tried to do suicide attacks, they might still fail to even harm Xuan Bing a bit!
Who had a tougher fist made the law. It truly was the first rule in the Qing-Yun Realm. What happened proved it right!
In front of absolute power, nothing else mattered!
Xuan Bing inhaled facing the sky. Her black robe was fluttering. It scared them.
In the sky, silver snakes showed up. Those were lightning in the clouds.
As long as she started it, the thunderclaps would echo around her!
"I am just a woman," Xuan Bing murmured.
Suddenly, her eyes were like two sharp knives.
Bai Bufan was shocked. He heard her, but he didn't understand.
[I am just a woman?]
[What does that mean?]
Nobody, not even Ye Xiao, understood what she meant. Ye Xiao didn't know why she had to kill those people. She just wanted to kill them, even though she knew it might make her an improper person.
In fact, what she just said was the reason.
I am just a woman.
No matter how powerful she was, she was just a woman. [1]
She couldn't just let them hurt the man she loved.
For a woman, nothing was more important than the man she loved! [2]
When she fought against all the powerful sects in the realm, she did it for the same reason. This time, she wanted to kill these men for the same reason.
[I just can't let you threaten his safety. I will clean all the threats that might hurt him in the future. I can kill the entire world for this! I can carry the sin for him!]
[I don't care.]
Powerful wind came over.
Xuan Bing's robe was fluttering hard. Suddenly, she stretched her arms and shook them.
- Boom! -
A mass of dark fog suddenly exploded and spread out hundreds of meters!
"Die!" She jumped up. At the same time, in the clouds, countless lightning started to strike down!
The entire world was shaking for it!
Bai Bufan shouted, "Array!"
At this moment, he had no other option. Since he could never cease her anger, he had to try to fight for survival. Even though he knew it barely meant anything, he still wanted to try! It was better than waiting for death!
However, he was late.
Xuan Bing shouted loudly. Nobody knew where her voice came from.
"Beauty in the world; ice to the cloud!"
She rushed out fast.
The dark fog in the air suddenly froze, like a huge piece of black ice. The entire space was locked! The lightning became the color of jade!
That was the sign of fully operated Ling Xiao Ice Art!
"Stop!" at this moment, Ye Xiao suddenly shouted.
He was not sure if he could stop her. He knew that if Xuan Bing killed those men now, the war between Misty Cloud Palace and the three factions would begin.
Xuan Bing made an energy shield to protect him. He knew she cared for him. That was why he had to consider it for Xuan Bing. He knew the serious result of this fight!
What happened just now might be an issue about a woman's dignity. It could be big, but in fact, it was not a big problem. It truly was just a mistake. On Saint Sunlight Sect's side, Bai Bufan had done all he could to make peace. Zhao Xingnan was killed by him with one palm strike. Whether he killed Zhao Xingnan with a sincere heart or not, he did it. Saint Sunlight Sect had shown enough respect to Xuan Bing!
Xuan Bing surely knew it. That was why she hesitated for a while.
She said the last few words for herself so that she could make up her mind to start killing.
She didn't have to pull all the girls in Misty Cloud Palace down to the chaos with her just for the man she loved!
Besides, if she killed a bunch of men who had submitted to her, it would influence her mental status, which was nearly in a perfect stage.
No matter how serious the influence would be, the outcome would always be negative on her heart.
