Chapter 1096: People from Qiong-Hua Palace
Translator: RITF_Rain Editor: Chrissy
[Though you are so incredibly powerful that you can easily defeat all the youngsters who are the same age as you, you are alone. How many nails can you endure even if you are an iron plate? How many fights can you win even if you have endless energy? There are lots of clans with lots of capable young men. We will fight you one by one. You are strong, but we have plenty of people. Let's see who can stand to the end!]
What happened next was Ye Xiao's personal show on the stage. One by one, the youngsters of the other clans fell off the stage!
One went up, one fell off!
One again…
Everybody who got up the stage would fall back down!
"Ye Clan won a plant of Regeneration Ink Lotus!"
"Ye Clan won a plant of Regeneration Ink Lotus."
…
The judge kept shouting the same words. He sounded quite bored and tired. There was a strong sense of depression in it…
His voice sounded like he had been beaten up eight hundred times. Anyway, it just didn't seem right.
After a while, over thirty lotuses were taken by Ye Clan.
Ye Xiao wouldn't care about such a few lotuses, especially the lotuses in such low quality. However, for the clans, those were something to support their lives.
They were watching the lotuses going to Ye Clan, so their eyes all turned red.
They had lost hope on the 'attrition' strategy which they had decided not long earlier. If somebody could make Ye Xiao operate some of his final strikes or something more powerful, it might consume his energy a little. However, as the youngsters kept going up the stage, Ye Xiao didn't even seem to make any severe attacks. He didn't need to fight at all. What he did was just a smack one young man after another…
No matter how famous a young man was out in the district, he would be smacked and slammed off the stage just like all the others!
It had been over thirty fights, yet Ye Xiao didn't even sweat a bit, not to mention consuming energy!
His face didn't even turn red!
He breathed steadily, calm and peaceful.
His vigor, breath, attitude, aura, and posture… were killing it.
…
A few groups of people were moving over to the stage from far away, extremely fast!
These were the days when people came to collect Regeneration Ink Lotus. Not only Misty Cloud Palace, but also the other forces that needed it.
The other people didn't need it as much as Misty Cloud Palace, but they did need it!
Otherwise, Regeneration Lotuses wouldn't be in a top position in the medicinal plants ranking list!
The word Regeneration was not just a joke.
The lotus indeed could save lives!
…
"Ye Clan won a plant of Regeneration Ink Lotus again…" The man who made the announcement looked so sad. He was sweating and trembling while staring straight forward.
All he had done was tell people who the winner was. Yet he looked more exhausted than Ye Xiao, who had fought over sixty fights.
Everybody could see and hear how tired the man was.
Ye Liangchen, who was responsible for taking the lotuses as the rewards, was pretending to be tired, but was, in fact, gloating. He wiped his forehead and smiled bitterly. "Oh heavens… My Brother Xiao is awesome, overwhelming, excellent. I, Liangchen, of Ye Clan come and go to take the heavy lotus. It is okay if it only makes me sweat, but it weakens my legs. I just can't get fat no matter what I eat. How do I make my leg stronger…"
Lots of people glared at him with the fire of anger in their eyes, as if they could kill him like that!
"Pah! Show appreciation to the fortunes you don't deserve, you bastard! We all want to take the lotus like you!" A man of another clan who was waiting to take the lotus stared at Ye Liangchen who had tears in the eyes.
One was showing off on the stage… another was trying so hard to pretend to be unappreciative…
Ye Liangchen not only won it by words, but also spoke a line that was forbidden in all time—I just can't get fat no matter what I eat..
[Goddam it, Ye Clan, you do have some real genius!]
After the time of a meal, nothing changed on the stage. It was the sixty-fifth fight Ye Xiao won!
Ye Clan people were all overjoyed.
They had saved all their lotuses, and what was next was to get more lotuses from other clans' contribution. Considering how powerful Ye Xiao was, they might get to have all the lotuses from the other clans…
Another young man in black clothes jumped up the stage. He was about to attack after telling his name.
At this moment, a bland but imperial voice sounded, "Wait!"
Everybody was shocked. They all looked to the direction where it sounded.
The crowd was spreading to two sides, making a path among them. Nine ladies, who were wearing white clothes, calmly walked over.
They were surrounded by a pleasant scent.
The nine ladies had similar garments—white clothes and silver scabbards. Each of them was tall and slim, beautiful, cool, and extraordinary.
The lady who stood in front donned a bun on top of her hair. She was elegant and cold, and had a beautiful face. Cold lights were twinkling in her eyes. As she walked, she never moved her gaze away from Ye Xiao who was on the stage.
Everybody who had looked at her was awed by her aura. They didn't even dare to breathe heavily. Suddenly, the entire place was silent.
The ladies were like fairies from the heavens descending to the world.
Although they were in this impure mundane world, they were still clean and exquisite, as if nobody could approach them.
A silver flower mark on their sleeves showed their identity!
Qiong-Hua Palace!
They were people of the three Great Palaces, which was as famous as Misty Cloud Palace!
Ye Nantian's face suddenly turned dark. He didn't seem to be calm and steady anymore!
People in the other clans showed different expressions on their faces, but they were obviously gloating.
[Aren't you Ye Clan such a powerful clan? Aren't you going to take all the lotuses? Aren't you going to be the greatest of today?]
[Aha! Look what happens now! Let's see whether you can wait till Misty Cloud Palace comes. I guess you will have to be powerful enough to deal with the ladies from Qiong-Hua Palace.]
[They all knew why the ladies would come.]
The existence of Ye Nantian and Ye Xiao was the only reason.
