Chapter 90 Mutual Dislike
Chapter 90 Mutual Dislike
Seeing Tao Tao's feigned innocence, Ye Lan was furious, but she had no way to refute him, since this was the Annihilation Cold Sect.
"So, is it because Junior Sister Yue is bullying my sister like this that she can act with impunity in her own sect? Does she really think there's no one in the Ye family?"
Ye Lan's eyes turned cold, and her tone carried a hint of threat. The Ye family had never been afraid of trouble, even when facing the Yanhan Sect. She didn't believe that if the Ye family really wanted to pursue the matter, the Yanhan Sect would become an enemy of the Ye family for the sake of a mere disciple.
"She was the one who bullied others first, and you're all blaming her now. I never thought the Ye family would be so arrogant." Sun Yuzhu didn't give her any face at all, since Ye Shu had gone too far before.
Ye Lan couldn't stand these words and angrily gripped her folding fan tightly. "You! Don't think that just because your cultivation is above mine I'm afraid of you. Today, Ye Lan will properly experience the abilities of the purple-clad woman from the Sword Forging Sect."
As she spoke, she stepped forward, the purple-gold acacia bell at her waist jingling softly, and her folding fan half-open, letting in a breeze.
"Junior sister, let it go. There's no need to get entangled with them." The disciple of Baiyaotang gently tugged at Tao Tao's sleeve. He saw that the two sides were about to fight again and really didn't want to cause conflict because of himself. Besides, the Ye family was used to being arrogant and would not give up easily. They would have to compromise.
Sun Yuzhu couldn't stand such spineless people. Before Tao Tao could speak, she scolded, "Do you think they can just give up? People like this will only take advantage of you if you back down."
Just as she finished speaking, a hurricane swept in. Sun Yuzhu's eyes turned cold, and she gripped the hilt of her sword and swung it horizontally with great force. This sword strike was so powerful that it actually cut the incoming hurricane in half and pointed directly at Ye Lan.
Ultimately, the difference in strength was too great. Even with Ye Lan's magical treasures revived, they were still slightly inferior in the face of absolute power.
"Sister, be careful!" Ye Shu shouted anxiously. The person in question naturally knew better than anyone else that she could not be careless when facing Sun Yuzhu. Knowing that she was no match for her, Ye Lan had no choice but to use the Purple Gold Hehuan Bell to interfere with Sun Yuzhu. She twirled her folding fan, and the fan flew out, instantly transforming into three folding fans that spun around.
The folding fan swept past like a sharp blade with a "whoosh." Sun Yuzhu swung her greatsword to deflect it, but she only managed to deflect one. The other two had already silently arrived behind her and suddenly flew towards her neck.
Just as he was about to succeed, Tao Tao threw out his double rings, deflecting the two folding fans. However, this angered Ye Lan, who spun the fans around and aimed them at Tao Tao.
Even though the Purple Gold Hehuan Bell was used and Sun Yuzhu's movements were slowed down considerably, why was Le Taotao still safe and sound?
Ye Lan was puzzled. The Purple Gold Acacia Bell was a top-grade magic treasure. Tao Tao's cultivation level was not enough to break through it. Could it be that its power was weakened because the opponent was a demon beast? That shouldn't be the case. She had used it to deal with demon beasts before, and it was far more effective than it was against these human cultivators.
Regardless of why Tao Tao was unaffected by the Purple Gold Acacia Bell, Ye Lan's cultivation was superior to hers. Since they were going to take action, they should at least teach her a lesson.
The Jade Bone Exquisite Fan was extremely fast. If Tao Tao's five senses hadn't already surpassed those of others at the same level, the spinning speed would likely have already injured her.
Tao Tao kept using his double rings to defend himself, trying his best to keep the Jade Bone Exquisite Fan away from him. At the same time, he also needed to find the right opportunity to defeat Ye Lan completely. As for Sun Yuzhu, Ye Lan was preoccupied with dealing with Tao Tao and had no time to spare. In addition, Sun Yuzhu was affected by the Purple Gold Hehuan Bell and her movements were extremely slow, so there was no need to worry about her.
"You think that's all I'm capable of?" Ye Lan's eyes flashed with coldness as she saw Tao Tao easily evade the attack. She clasped her hands together, constantly changing her palm seals. Suddenly, the swirling, exquisite fan opened wide, revealing sharp spikes on its surface. Following Ye Lan's command, the spikes flew out, shooting towards Tao Tao without any strategy.
The Linglong Fan continued its attack, but it was still somewhat difficult for Tao Tao. Besides, she couldn't fully reveal her strength yet, as the martial arts tournament hadn't even started.
Seeing that Tao Tao was finally starting to feel the strain, Ye Lan gave a cold laugh. "Junior Sister Le, I'm not an unreasonable person. If you're willing to sincerely apologize to my sister, I'll naturally let you go. Otherwise, swords are merciless, and if I accidentally hurt you, don't blame me."
"She hurt someone first, so she should be the one apologizing. Why should I apologize?" Tao Tao wasn't buying it. If it wasn't her fault, she wouldn't back down. Besides, she had so many grudges with Ye Lan, so how could she possibly bow down to Ye Lan?
Unexpectedly, Tao Tao was still stubborn. Ye Lan's smile deepened. "In that case, Junior Sister Yue, don't blame me for not showing any mercy."
What old feelings could they possibly have? Tao Tao scoffed. At that moment, she really wanted to take out all her magical artifacts and treasures to fight Ye Lan, but she held back. Now was not the time.
"Whatever." Tao Tao said indifferently, with the two rings in his hands, he was not afraid at all. Even though he was clearly at a disadvantage, he still dared to be so arrogant. Ye Lan was furious. Under Ye Lan's control, the flying needles in the fan formed a huge net that surrounded Tao Tao. These flying needles kept shooting towards Tao Tao. The space was already small, and the flying needles were dense. The two folding fans were located on both sides of the giant net, emitting a dazzling light.
Suddenly, they transformed into two extremely fast streaks of light, flying towards Tao Tao with a "whoosh." At this moment, Tao Tao had to dodge both the flying needles and the exquisite fan, making it difficult for him to keep up.
These flying needles are unpredictable, and Tao Tao, located in the center, is undoubtedly the best target; she must activate her defense.
So Tao Tao fumbled for a defensive artifact and threw it out. The artifact formed a barrier to protect her, but the continuous stream of flying needles meant that the artifact couldn't hold out for long.
This wasn't the end of it. Although Ye Lan wouldn't kill Tao Tao, she was determined to teach her a lesson and also to save face for what happened last time.
Ye Lan patted the pet pouch, and instantly a three-foot-tall, fluttering moth flew out. Its two pairs of wings spread out, almost blotting out the sun, and the scales on its wings emitted a dazzling seven-colored light.
Seeing the large, fluttering moth, Sun Yuzhu frowned slightly, her face turning particularly grim. "The Five-Colored Demon Butterfly! She actually has this thing! Junior Sister Le, quickly find a way to get out of there; this thing is not easy to deal with!"
"The Five-Colored Demon Butterfly?" What is that? Tao Tao had never heard of it before. She only saw a huge fluttering moth fly above her head, constantly flapping its wings. Its scales shone even more brightly in the sunlight.
Under the light, Tao Tao felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, almost losing his sight. He could see nothing and could only rely on sound to determine the direction from which the flying needles came in order to avoid them.
At the same time, she also felt that her movements had slowed down considerably, and she almost missed several times.
The five-colored butterfly flapped its wings again, scattering scales and powder. The flying needles quickly destroyed Tao Tao's shield, allowing the scales and powder to fall directly onto Tao Tao without hindrance.
As soon as the powder landed on his skin, Tao Tao felt an intense itch and knew something was wrong.
This scale powder is poisonous!
