Chapter 2158: Chapter 2159: I Will Go Within Three Days (Tenth Update)
Enemies of the past, settled today!
The six words slipped from Dongfang Shu’s lips, and a look of intense hatred surged on her face!
Obviously, she, Dongfang Shu, had been waiting for the day she could step into the Dongfang family, reclaim everything owed to her and her mother, and force Dongfang Jinbao and Wu Lanqin to kneel before her mother’s memorial and repent.
Ye Xunhuan glanced at Dongfang Shu, then looked at Dongfang Jinbao: "Fine, I agree, but he can’t just leave like this!"
As he finished speaking, Ye Xunhuan’s right hand shot out and gripped Dongfang Jinbao’s right arm!
"Crack!"
The next moment, the sound of bones snapping resonated around them, accompanied by Dongfang Jinbao’s screams, akin to a slaughtered pig.
In that instant, Ye Xunhuan crushed every inch of bone in Dongfang Jinbao’s right arm. The severe pain was unbearable, causing Dongfang Jinbao to nearly faint several times. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Yet the agonizing pain soon jolted him back to consciousness, making unconsciousness a luxury he couldn’t afford.
Despite having weathered many storms and tortured numerous people, Dongfang Shu still felt a tinge of fear, even terror, seeing Ye Xunhuan’s methods.
At that moment, Dongfang Shu also felt fortunate. She was glad she wasn’t Ye Xunhuan’s enemy, or else if he used such means against her...
Just the thought of it made Dongfang Shu’s body tremble uncontrollably.
After completely rendering Dongfang Jinbao’s arm useless, Ye Xunhuan coldly said, "Go back to the Dongfang family and tell them all that I, Ye Xunhuan, will bring Dongfang Shu over in three days. Let them prepare their necks and get the coffins ready!"
Dongfang Jinbao trembled continuously, his sunken face filled with agony and malevolence, looking as though he had crawled out from hell, making one’s heart race.
Dongfang Jinbao dared not say anything as he struggled to rise from the ground, dragging the leg that Ye Xunhuan had crippled, and left shakily.
But as he left, Dongfang Jinbao cast a glance at both Dongfang Shu and Ye Xunhuan.
Though he said nothing, the vicious look in his eyes was self-explanatory!
Once Dongfang Jinbao left, Ye Xunhuan let out a heavy breath, took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a gentle puff.
At this time, Dongfang Shu suddenly spoke: "You carry a heavy murderous aura, so heavy that I don’t even recognize you anymore. You seem very unfamiliar to me..."
The Ye Xunhuan Dongfang Shu used to know was ruthless, especially against enemies, but had never carried such a heavy murderous aura.
In the moment Ye Xunhuan dealt with Dongfang Jinbao, Dongfang Shu found Ye Xunhuan very unfamiliar, like a completely different person!
Upon hearing Dongfang Shu, Ye Xunhuan paused slightly, then said: "Maybe it’s because I’ve been through a lot recently and killed a lot of people!"
"I’ll be fine in a couple of days!"
Ye Xunhuan hadn’t noticed his own change, but Dongfang Shu’s words made him realize how brutal he’d become.
But it wasn’t too hard to understand. Ye Xunhuan knew that the king was his enemy, and behind the king was Lin Yuhai.
Both the king and Lin Yuhai were like mountains pressing on Ye Xunhuan’s chest, making it difficult for him to breathe. He wanted to vent but couldn’t find an outlet!
Now, Dongfang Jinbao happened to walk right into it.
Hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Dongfang Shu refrained from asking further. She now knew Ye Xunhuan’s identity, and had a vague guess when she visited Qiu Ruoxi a few days ago.
"Are you alright?"
"I’m fine!" Ye Xunhuan said lightly.
"When did you come back?"
"Last night!"
"Last night?"
"Mm!" Ye Xunhuan exhaled a dense smoke and said: "Last night, after I came back, Ruoxi told me you visited her, appearing anxious and uneasy, so she asked me to come and check on you!"
"I didn’t expect the timing to be so perfect!"
A look of surprise slowly appeared on Dongfang Shu’s face: "Qiu Ruoxi asked you to come?"
"Otherwise, how would I know you needed to see me?" Ye Xunhuan smiled!
"I never thought Qiu Ruoxi would inform you," Dongfang Shu said with a bitter laugh: "I seem to have never been welcome by her, right?"
"I don’t know about that." Ye Xunhuan shook his head slightly: "I can’t fathom the thoughts of you women!"
As Ye Xunhuan finished speaking, without waiting for Dongfang Shu to respond, he continued: "I’ve let Dongfang Jinbao go, but the Dongfang family won’t let it go easily, and I might have to leave Jiangzhong City at any time!"
"I can’t stay here forever, so while I’m free these few days, let’s go to the Dongfang family and reclaim everything they owe you."
Dongfang Shu’s body trembled slightly, her face a mix of excitement and disbelief as she looked at Ye Xunhuan: "You... you’re really willing to go to the Dongfang family with me?"
Dongfang Shu had thought about asking Ye Xunhuan to come with her to the Dongfang family to reclaim what was owed to her, but she feared rejection and never dared to voice it.
She never expected Ye Xunhuan to bring it up himself.
Ye Xunhuan nodded: "If we don’t go, and they come looking for you again, you won’t be able to stop them. Just solve it once and for all, so you don’t have to keep thinking about it!"
Actually, Ye Xunhuan had another reason for wanting to go to the Dongfang family. He wanted to see what the ancient martial families were like.
He also wanted to gradually infiltrate the ancient martial families, to eventually confront and eliminate the king!
Of course, Ye Xunhuan also wanted to gauge the king’s reaction, to prepare accordingly.
After all, being prepared helps one live longer!
Dongfang Shu didn’t know this, but even if she did, it wouldn’t matter to her.
She wanted revenge, and Ye Xunhuan wanted an opportunity.
They both had the same goal, so even in cooperation, it was a win-win situation, right?
After all, if Ye Xunhuan were to go after other ancient martial families, it wouldn’t make sense, but the Dongfang family was different.
"As long as you’re willing, I can take you there anytime!" Dongfang Shu said excitedly. "When are you free?"
"We’ll definitely go within these three days!"
