Chapter 992: Being Injured

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

However, soon after, the crowd involuntarily shifted their gaze towards the Ye family’s direction. Because Ye Leng’an wasn’t just Huangfu Ruiling’s fiancée, she was also a member of the Ye family, the biological daughter of Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu.

However, the Ye family only acknowledged Ye Wanwan, seemingly never recognizing Ye Leng’an as their member.

If onlookers hadn’t witnessed the confrontation between Ye Leng’an and Ye Wanwan, they might have thought the Ye family’s decision was justified. After all, despite her young age, Ye Wanwan had already reached the Golden Core Stage, indicating promising prospects.

But now, seeing Ye Leng’an’s incomprehensible strength, Ye Wanwan’s cultivation seemed insignificant in comparison.

Whether the Ye family regretted their decision at this moment remained unknown. No one knew their true feelings.

However, no one noticed that upon witnessing Ye Leng’an’s performance, Ye Yikun didn’t show any regret, but instead, a faint excitement flickered in his eyes.

Onstage, Ye Leng’an looked at the fallen Ye Wanwan, a slight smirk on her lips. “Ready to surrender?”

Clutching her chest, Ye Wanwan stood up, her eyes filled with hatred and determination towards Ye Leng’an. “Ye Leng’an, I won’t surrender, and I absolutely won’t lose.”

She couldn’t afford to surrender or lose. Losing this match meant more than just losing face; it meant destroying her cultivation. She couldn’t afford to lose, so even if it meant going down together, she wouldn’t lose to Ye Leng’an.

Seeing Ye Wanwan’s demeanor, Ye Leng’an remained indifferent. “Fine, let’s continue then.”

Soon, the two resumed their intense fight on stage, exchanging fierce blows. However, to any discerning eye, Ye Wanwan was constantly on the defensive, unable to retaliate against Ye Leng’an’s strength – it was like trying to move a mountain with a spoon.

In just a moment, Ye Wanwan had been severely injured and seemed on the verge of collapse. But she stubbornly refused to admit defeat.

The spectators below felt sorry seeing Ye Wanwan’s pitiful state. But as mere bystanders, they couldn’t intervene.

Seeing Ye Wanwan’s miserable appearance, Lian Mengzhu offstage was full of worry, tears welling in her eyes as she shouted, “Wanwan, just surrender. Continuing like this, you’ll lose your life.”

She naturally remembered the agreement between Ye Wanwan and Ye Leng’an. If lost, Ye Wanwan would have to forfeit her cultivation.

Though losing her cultivation would be disastrous for Wanwan, at this rate she would still lose regardless. Moreover, if she continued, she would even lose her life.

Either way, the outcome was the same, so it was better to surrender now and preserve her life.

From start to finish, Ye Hongxuan said nothing. But his clenched fists and worried eyes showed his heart was unsettled at the moment. If not for maintaining decorum, he would have wanted to directly stop this match.

Onstage, as if deaf, Ye Wanwan condensed her spiritual power into a wind blade, attacking Ye Leng’an.

Facing Ye Wanwan’s attack, Ye Leng’an calmly prepared to dodge and then fiercely counterattack.

However, at that moment, she suddenly felt a strange sensation in her mind, and her limbs seemed to stiffen, unable to move. She felt as if she was being controlled, something she had never experienced before. This feeling was truly unpleasant.

The spectators below seemed to notice Ye Leng’an’s abnormality.

Huangfu Ruiling naturally noticed it too, abruptly standing up. But instead of going to the stage, he stood there with sharp eyes, appearing calm. However, no one noticed his hands clenched into fists behind his back.

As the wind blade neared Ye Leng’an’s throat, excitement filled Ye Wanwan’s face, her eyes brimming with madness.

At this moment, Ye Wanwan was utterly unrestrained, having almost completely lost reason. Her only thought was to defeat Ye Leng’an, even kill her.

After witnessing the scene, everyone gasped in shock. Some girls even covered their eyes, afraid of any bleeding scene.

Ye Hongxuan had stood up, about to fly onto the stage, but was stopped by Ye Yikun beside him.

At the critical moment, a sharp light flashed in Ye Leng’an’s eyes as she swiftly dodged. Though avoiding a fatal blow, a strand of hair was cut and a bloodstain appeared on her neck, a few drops falling to the ground.

At this moment, everyone’s attention was on Ye Leng’an and Ye Wanwan, no one noticing those drops of blood mysteriously disappearing from the ground.

Ye Leng’an touched her neck, feeling the wetness followed by a sharp sting.

Seeing Ye Leng’an narrowly escape, a hint of unwillingness flashed in Ye Wanwan’s eyes. But she had no time to waste now. Having finally injured Ye Leng’an, she had to press her advantage.

Without hesitation, Ye Wanwan gathered all her spiritual power, exerting her full strength to attack Ye Leng’an.

Seeing Ye Wanwan’s attack, Ye Leng’an’s lips curled into a cold smile.

Though unsure of what had just happened, she was certain someone had interfered behind the scenes. To avoid any further unforeseen incidents, she decided to swiftly end the fight.

Ten minutes later, Ye Leng’an stood calmly on the stage, her clothes still neat, her hair untouched. If not for the bloodstain on her neck, one couldn’t tell she had just been in battle.

Not far from her, Ye Wanwan lay powerless on the ground, clothes dusty, hair disheveled, and bloodstains at the corners of her mouth. At this moment, she lacked even the strength to stand.
