Chapter 148: Can You Be Any More Despicable?

When the Jade Fox Palace first heard from their leader, Hu Qianzao, about what Ye Xuan had done, many found it hard to believe.

Or perhaps, they held a glimmer of hope, thinking there might be some misunderstanding. However, at this moment, seeing the evil demeanor of Ye Xuan in the visuals, and witnessing the heavy casualties within the Jade Fox Palace, regardless of age...

Even several ten-year-old fox-girls were bloodied and lying on the ground. Some were already dead, while others were still screaming, their last breaths being drawn out by the black-robed men brought by Ye Xuan.

How could mere cruelty describe this scene?!

At this moment, even the most naïve or emotional persons were filled with rage, glaring fiercely at Ye Xuan.

“Ye Xuan, you truly deserve to die—!!!”

“Today, you won’t escape the Jade Fox Palace—!!!”

“I’ll skin you alive—!!!”

The disciples of the Jade Fox Palace were gnashing their teeth in anger. If it weren’t for the fact that Ye Xuan was already trapped by the grand formation of the Jade Fox Palace, they would have likely torn him to pieces in their fury.

Those who had previously sympathized with Ye Xuan now looked at him with flames of anger in their eyes.

At this moment, who cared about misunderstandings? To hell with misunderstandings, now they just wanted Ye Xuan dead.

Only that could quench their rage, only that could slightly mask their inner fear.

Yes, fear.

The Jade Fox Palace had been peaceful for too long, having not experienced the trials of blood and fire for ages. To the people of the Jade Fox Palace, Ye Xuan was now enough to be regarded with fear.

Because of this fear, their anger towards Ye Xuan for what was happening in the visuals intensified. Everything in the visuals was caused by Ye Xuan.

And more so, it was about to happen soon.

That is, the current Ye Xuan was very likely already planning his malevolent schemes. Attacking their leader, Hu Qianzao, was just an entry point.

If so, then Ye Xuan absolutely could not be let off—!!!

Seeing everyone’s reaction around her, Hu Qianzao couldn’t help but show a trace of guilt.

Just now, she had actually thought about letting Ye Xuan go because of what she had seen of her past life, Hu Qian’er, and because she owed Ye Xuan from that life.

Thinking it over, she realized she had indeed been too emotional. If Ye Xuan really was no longer the kind-hearted person he had been, but had turned evil due to the experiences of his rebirth...

Then letting him go could potentially lead to the events in the visuals happening again at the Jade Fox Palace.

This was something she had already experienced in her memory...

Clang—!!!

Just then, a figure appeared in front of Hu Qianzao, a long sword in hand, fiercely cleaving the purple-black orb of evil energy into two halves...

Following that, the evil energy exploded, revealing the true identity of the person with the sword. It was one of the immortals of the Jade Fox Palace, Ren Bai.

He stood quietly in front of Hu Qianzao, blocking the incoming fatal blow for her, his gaze sweeping the surroundings indifferently, seeming unfazed but with a barely concealed murderous intent in his eyes.

Beside Ren Bai, a woman in a blue dress also slowly emerged. It was another immortal of the Jade Fox Palace, Hu Lan.

Seeing Ye Xuan, Hu Lan’s expression grew even more furious, and she couldn’t help but want to rush at Ye Xuan.

But, Ren Bai placed his long sword in front of her, signaling her to stay calm. Both of their gazes turned towards the sky, where several powerful black-robed men were eyeing them menacingly.

Then, Ren Bai walked towards Ye Xuan, “Yo...”

“it’s truly regrettable.” Ye Xuan sighed with a hint of regret for not having killed Hu Qianzao with one blow, and then, looking at Ren Bai, his expression turned sinister, “Let’s have you keep me company for a bit—!!!”

While talking, Ye Xuan’s figure flashed, disappearing from in front of Ren Bai.

With the sound of clashing metal, Ye Xuan’s figure materialized behind Ren Bai, his hands gathering evil Qi, attacking Ren Bai.

Clang—!

Ren Bai’s long sword swung backward, clashing with Ye Xuan’s black energy. Ye Xuan’s figure flashed countless times, each movement like a fleeting shadow, clashing with Ren Bai’s long sword.

The sinister black energy had the power to destroy mountains, but Ren Bai’s long sword was equally formidable.

After dozens of exchanges, Ye Xuan, relying on his mysterious movements, remained unharmed but was falling into a disadvantage.

He suddenly retreated, dodging Ren Bai’s killing move, “Hehe, I’ve had enough fun, continuing might actually become dangerous.”

Saying this, he spoke to the sky, “Spread out, let’s make this a slaughter—!”

“Yes—!!!”

Hearing this, the numerous black-robed cultivators in the sky prepared to scatter. If these powerful black-robed evil cultivators were to disperse, the Jade Fox Palace would surely suffer even heavier casualties.

At this moment, Ren Bai could no longer pursue Ye Xuan, his figure soaring up, chasing after those evil cultivators in the sky.

“Hehe, thinking of chasing them? Did you ask me?!!” Ye Xuan’s figure shifted, instantly unleashing dozens of attacks towards Ren Bai’s back.

———

“Despicable—!!!”

Seeing this situation, the people of the Jade Fox Palace couldn’t help but curse out loud.

Immediately, they all cast disdainful glances towards Ye Xuan.
