Just a single day had passed, and under the frenzied promotion of Yan Yue, who had narrowly escaped from the Yu Void Palace, the disciples of Yu Xu Palace received a piece of news: Ye Huan had assaulted the beloved daughter of the sect leader, Yu Xiang'er. Many of Yu Xiang'er's admirers gathered together, filled with righteous indignation, declaring that they would seek revenge on Ye Huan for her.
Meanwhile, as the sun set and darkness gradually enveloped the sky, a man and a woman continued to argue in the Main Hall of Yu Void Palace.
“Speak up! Ye Huan, don’t think for a second that I’m easy to bully. It was wrong of me to attack you without understanding the situation earlier, but how do we settle this matter of you taking advantage of me?”
She was clearly fixated on this issue, determined to demand an explanation from Ye Huan, which only fueled his anger further.
“Miss, when did I ever take advantage of you? Can we not lie with our eyes wide open? In that situation, I didn’t care whether you were a bear or a butt!”
“You, you, you shameless scoundrel!”
Yu Xiang'er’s face flushed red with anger as she struggled to find words. After a moment of silence, she seemed ready to draw her Moonlight Dagger again, a move that caught Ye Huan's attention.
“Let’s not discuss that anymore. By the way, what about Yan Yue leaving here?”
He grasped Yu Xiang'er’s left hand tightly, preventing her from drawing her dagger. He didn’t notice that her already flushed cheeks became even more vibrant; if they had been akin to an apple before, they now resembled a monkey's backside.
“Why are you silent now?”
As he stared at Yu Xiang'er in surprise, before Ye Huan could voice his thoughts, a large number of disciples from Yu Xu Palace rushed in from outside the Main Hall after hearing from Yan Yue about Yu Xiang'er’s assault. Among them were not only third-generation disciples but also many second-generation disciples who were already over a hundred years old. They lined up at the entrance of the Main Hall and shouted in unison as if they had coordinated beforehand: “Beast! Let go of Yu Xiang'er!”
"Beasts? Who are they talking about?"
Ye Huan slowly shifted his gaze to the entrance of Yu Void Palace's Main Hall, and was immediately startled by the number of people gathered there. Almost all of his fellow disciples were glaring at him with eyes full of anger. Looking down, Ye Huan realized that he was still holding Yu Xiang'er's hand, and in this world where men and women kept their distance, it suddenly dawned on him what that meant.
With a nervous laugh, he quickly released Yu Xiang'er's small hand and called out to the crowd at the entrance of Yu Void Palace, "It's a misunderstanding! Everyone, listen to me, this is definitely a misunderstanding. If you don't believe me, ask Yu Xiang'er! I haven't done anything to her."
"Ye Huan, a real man should take responsibility for his actions. What? You took advantage of me and now you won't admit it?!"
To Ye Huan's surprise, as he was desperately trying to clarify that there was nothing between him and Yu Xiang'er, her one statement rendered his explanations utterly pale and powerless.
"I..."
He wanted to say more, but when Ye Huan saw several impulsive Yu Xu Palace disciples pulling out various Flying Swords from behind him, he could only swallow the rest of his words and choose the simplest and safest response: run!
In a flash, he grabbed Yu Xiang'er and leaped over the heads of the many Yu Xu Palace disciples gathered at the entrance. Ye Huan ran as fast as he could while everyone was still processing what was happening. After all, trying to explain things to so many angry Yu Xu Palace disciples seemed like a death wish. As for bringing Yu Xiang'er along, it was purely because Ye Huan remembered Yu Wuxia had once asked him to take good care of her. Otherwise, he wouldn't have cared about anyone else's well-being, especially after Yu Xiang'er had just turned the tables on him.
"Hey, where are you taking me?"
Being dragged along by Ye Huan as he sprinted away, Yu Xiang'er looked quite disdainful of his roughness. However, when she noticed that there were no fewer than a hundred Yu Xu Palace disciples chasing after them with wild shouts behind her and Ye Huan, a smile involuntarily crept onto her face. Deep down, she thought: 'Hmph, Ye Huan, let's see if you dare take advantage of me again. All these years in Yu Void Palace have not been in vain.'
Unaware that Yu Xiang'er was secretly reveling in the situation, Ye Huan had no choice but to run for his life to avoid any conflict with the Yu Xu Palace disciples. In no time at all, he brought Yu Xiang'er near his straw hut. Just then, with a creaking sound, a creature wobbled out from the dilapidated hut—it was none other than the Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon who had been basking in the sun all day.
With its golden claws slightly dull from sleeping under the sun for too long, the Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon squinted its eyes at Ye Huan as he approached with a girl. It couldn't help but ask him, "Hey, Ye Huan! Why did you take so long to come back? And who is this girl?"
"I don't have time to explain. We need to escape, Jin Long. I advise you to leave with us quickly!"
With that, Ye Huan swept past the Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon like a gust of wind, and before departing, he reminded the Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon. To his surprise, the Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon chuckled at Ye Huan's words and replied, "Hey, are you out of your mind? This is the territory of Yu Void Palace, right? Who would dare to provoke a genius like you within Yu Void Palace?"
"Genius?"
A bitter smile appeared on Ye Huan's face. He didn't think being a genius could compete against the numerous disciples of Yu Void Palace. His speed increased as he dashed forward, quickly covering several dozen meters and leaving the Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon far behind. The Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon was left puzzled about what Ye Huan was running from. Shaking his head, he intended to return to his straw hut for more sleep. However, just as he began to float up, he spotted a large group of Yu Xu Palace Disciples riding various colorful Flying Swords rushing toward him.
His mouth fell open in shock. Upon seeing this scene, the Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon finally understood why Ye Huan had urged him to escape as well. The aggressive stance of the Yu Xu Palace Disciples clearly indicated they intended to eliminate Ye Huan!
Another gust of wind blew past, but fortunately, the Yu Xu Palace Disciples only had their sights set on Ye Huan. Otherwise, even the Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon would likely have been overwhelmed by them. Nevertheless, after the Yu Xu Palace Disciples passed by, although the Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon was unharmed, he inevitably ended up with a mouthful of dust. After coughing for a while, he finally managed to say, "Heavens! Did Ye Huan offend someone’s daughter?"
