Invincible Soul Emperor

In the blink of an eye, Ye Qingchen suddenly captured Zheng Xiao.

"Zheng Xiao! Let’s see how you run now!"

Ye Qingchen’s Teng Man entrapped Zheng Xiao with lightning speed.

Zheng Xiao’s eyes widened as she struggled to break free.

"You despicable scoundrel! How shameless you are, daring to ambush me like this!" Zheng Xiao struggled.

However, Ye Qingchen just chuckled, "Against someone like you, what does it matter if I ambush you or not? Don’t worry, I’ll hand you over to those Xue Family people and we’ll see if you can still escape then!"

Ye Qingchen’s words instantly made Zheng Xiao panic.

"Ye Qingchen! If you dare hand me over to those people, I will never forgive you!" Zheng Xiao shouted while struggling.

Ye Qingchen replied nonchalantly, "Oh, we’ll see if you can get out by then. If you do, you can talk about whether or not to forgive me."

Ye Qingchen seemed to have made up his mind, and Zheng Xiao knew the consequences if those people learned she had escaped.

She did have Xue Wei’s help, but Xue Wei had told her not to let the other Xue Family members find out she had broken out. Otherwise, even Xue Wei wouldn’t be able to protect her, let alone her family.

Her parents were already dying in that life-threatening prison, and if she failed now, there would be no hope left.

Thinking of this, Zheng Xiao could only compromise with Ye Qingchen before her!

"Ye Qingchen! I know this is my fault. If you let me go now, I can agree to any condition of yours!" Zheng Xiao gritted her teeth and said.

Ye Qingchen raised an eyebrow, "Any condition?"

"Yes! Whatever you want me to do, I’m willing!" Zheng Xiao declared with a look of resolute determination.

But Ye Qingchen burst into laughter, "Zheng Xiao, are you completely mistaken? You’re a prisoner in jail. Do I need you to help me with anything? Do you think you’re in a position to negotiate with me now?"

Ye Qingchen’s words instantly changed Zheng Xiao’s expression.

She hadn’t expected Ye Qingchen to say such words. If he needed nothing from her, she was of no use, her fate would only be capture!

Thinking of this, Zheng Xiao grew anxious.

"Ye Qingchen! Let’s talk this over! As long as you don’t hand me over, I’ll tell you everything I know!" Zheng Xiao now had no other options.

Ye Qingchen was forcing her to speak, and seeing her current state, Ye Qingchen finally smiled and said, "What do you know? What could you possibly know that would matter to me?"

"Of course, it’s about you!" Zheng Xiao shouted loudly.

Ye Qingchen finally put away his smile, "Then tell me, about what regarding me?"

With a troubled expression, Zheng Xiao spoke softly to Ye Qingchen, "But you have to promise me, once I tell you, you have to let me go."

Ye Qingchen nodded, "If what you say is of value, then I won’t hold today’s events against you."

Zheng Xiao nodded at him, "Ye Qingchen, this can’t be said out loud, the Xue Family people are likely watching, come closer, I’ll tell you."

Zheng Xiao looked around, appearing nervous.

Ye Qingchen raised an eyebrow and slowly leaned in.

"Bang!"

Just as he leaned in, a dark mist suddenly appeared before Ye Qingchen’s eyes, and immediately, he felt his breath pause, causing him to start coughing uncontrollably.

"Hahaha! Ye Qingchen! You’re so naive! Did you really think I would tell you what I know? Dream on! A despicable person like you doesn’t deserve to know!"

Immediately after, Zheng Xiao’s laughter echoed.

Ye Qingchen couldn’t help but frown. When he opened his eyes again, his Teng Man had already retracted, and Zheng Xiao was nowhere to be seen.

"Damn! She escaped again!"

Ye Qingchen said with some annoyance.

Just now, he really thought Zheng Xiao was at her wit’s end before revealing anything to him, but now seeing her actions, it’s likely that she has significant backing, otherwise, she wouldn’t dare to be so bold.

That being said, his current situation probably isn’t favorable!

This time Zheng Xiao escaped again, and next time he probably won’t catch her either, he can only wait for her to show up again.

However, next time Ye Qingchen definitely won’t let her get away!

After escaping, Zheng Xiao returned to that same place as before.

Wu Chang was already waiting for her there.

"Haha, Zheng Xiao, you did well today. In the end, Ye Qingchen’s face went as dark as the seabed turtle."

Zheng Xiao humbly shook her head, "Master, how many more times do you need me to deal with him?"

Wu Chang responded slowly, "Judging by his current situation, I reckon once more should suffice."

Wu Chang didn’t say the latter part because he knew next time, Ye Qingchen would definitely be fully prepared.

By then, Zheng Xiao might not make it back alive.

However, Zheng Xiao was merely a dispensable pawn to them, even if she died at Ye Qingchen’s hands, nobody would grieve.

In fact, it would lessen their burden since Zheng Xiao constantly demanded her family’s rescue.

Hearing Wu Chang’s words, Zheng Xiao mistakenly believed that if she did it one more time, Wu Chang would keep his promise.

She excitedly nodded, "Don’t worry, Master, I’ll make sure to handle it perfectly next time!"

"Zheng Xiao, as long as you do well, fulfilling those promises to you is naturally no problem. We’ve already discussed it with Xue Wei, don’t worry."

Despite his disdain, Wu Chang continued offering Zheng Xiao empty promises.

Zheng Xiao felt even happier after hearing his words.

"Alright!"

...

Meanwhile, elsewhere.

In the depths of the seabed.

Xiao Xiao and Xue Feng stood there expressionless, staring at the cave.

"How exactly can we deal with this Monster Beast? I’m afraid even our Xue Family Head might not be able to handle this creature, right?" Xue Feng muttered.

Xiao Xiao stood at the cave entrance, pondering the Thousand-Year Elder Gui’s words.

"This test is about courage, but we’ve fought him so many times, doesn’t that prove our courage? However, fighting him doesn’t work, and we can’t snatch it by force. Do they expect us to steal it in secret?"

Xiao Xiao’s words instantly revitalized Xue Feng.

"Little Girl Xiaoxiao, perhaps that’s what the Thousand-Year Elder Gui meant? That we should steal it if we can, that might prove our courage as well?"

Xue Feng’s eyes glowed anew as Xiao Xiao considered his words.

After a moment, Xiao Xiao shook her head, "Xue Feng, but I don’t think that’s what he meant. If we could steal it, we would have succeeded on the first try!"
