Chapter 433: Dream Butterfly

Miss Chu is extremely gifted, and the Son of Heaven Qi Observing Art is a godlike martial art, Your Highness. However, she is ultimately too young. She simply cannot maintain the Son of Heaven Qi Observing Art for too long.

Lei Xiaodan explained, On the other hand, Young Ye had reached the journeyman level in the Chaos Demon Ape Body Tempering Sutra and forged an imperfect Chaos Demon Ape Body. In this form, he possesses an incredible amount of vigor and regeneration. That is why he attacked Miss Chu again and again even though he was no match for her. It is to force her to deplete her stamina until she is too weak to defend against his final counterattack.

I see! So that bastard only won because he cheated! The Harmony King nodded and exclaimed in realization.

Er thats not entirely true, Your Highness. I suppose you can interpret it as cheating, but its common sense to strike the enemys weak spot with ones strength, so

Lei Xiaodan tried to explain himself, but the Harmony King cut him off before he could continue. Its fine. I completely understand what you mean. Hes a man, and he couldnt even fight a girl without resorting to cheap tactics and cowardly strategy. There is not a shred of manliness in him whatsoever.

Lei Xiaodan: ... Is that what I mean? Then why do I think otherwise?

The Harmony King continued with dripping disdain, As if thats not enough, hes a pretentious bastard whos trying to worm his way into Qingges good graces. The nerve of him! Ive never met a more shameless bastard in my life!

The sight of Ye Qing and his daughter chatting happily away with each other annoyed the Harmony King. Chu Qingge was born with an apathetic personality, and she rarely interacted with any men. Even as her dad, he rarely saw her opening herself up to someone the way she was currently doing with Ye Qing, much less anyone else. That was why he couldnt help but feel increasingly jealous and annoyed with Ye Qing.

Im warning you now, Jianglong, but you better keep that bastard away from my Qingge, the Harmony King abruptly looked at Hong Jianglong and uttered.

Ahem sure, Your Highness, Hong Jianglong replied awkwardly. I thought he was angry that his daughter lost, and he was, but its the possibility that his Qingge might fall for an undeserving guy that scares him even more

Personally, Hong Jianglong didnt think that Ye Qing was a poor match for Qingge though. They were both young geniuses with a bright future ahead of them. However, he could understand why a dad would find it difficult to accept this, much less someone like the Harmony King

It was at this moment Ye Qing and Chu Qingge teleported out of the platform at the same time.

Are you okay, Qingge? The Harmony King immediately went up to his daughter and asked concernedly.Updated from novelbIn.(c)om

Im fine, father. You dont need to worry about me, Chu Qingge responded with a smile.

Good, good. The Harmony King consoled her. Losing a duel once in a while is perfectly normal. Its not like you went all out. Nothing is more important than your health, so dont be angry, and definitely dont be sad, alright?

Dont worry, father. Im not sad or angry. Also, I have no qualms with this defeat. Ye Qing is definitely the better warrior between the two of us, Chu Qing replied while shooting Ye Qing a glance.

The Harmony Kings wariness shot up to a hundred when he saw this. Daughter, its important to protect oneself when youre away from the safety of your home. It is especially important to avoid shady people who look like something on the outside, but are really arrogant, boastful, and cheating bastards on the inside

Ye Qing: ... I dont care how you educate your daughter, but why the fuck are you looking in my direction as you speak?

I understand, father. Chu Qingge smirked a little. Of course she understood what the Harmony King was implying.

When the Harmony King noticed that Ye Qing was standing far too close for his comfort, he immediately shooed him away like a dog, What are you looking at, boy? Im talking to my daughter here! Stop eavesdropping and get out of my sight!

Ye Qing: ... Eavesdropping? Youre so loud I couldve heard you from twenty meters away!

As you command, Your Highness, Ye Qing replied while rubbing his nose. He didnt know why, but it was clear that the Harmony King was hostile toward him. Best not to provoke the man if he could help it.

Ye Qing narrowed his eyes a little and muttered, That bastard is toying with Brother Lin.

What? Chu Nianjiu blurted while sipping his wine. To be honest, it didnt look like Zhao Lan was toying with Lin Yuhuai, but the fact that he, a late-stage Spirit Purifier and a proven candidate of the Hidden Dragon Meet, didnt immediately crush Lin Yuhuai, an early-stage Spirit Purifier, proved that something was amiss.

If Chu Nianjiu wasnt sure that Lin Yuhuai didnt know Zhao Lan at all before the Hidden Dragon Meet, he would have suspected that the man was Lin Yuhuais hired actor!

Chu Nianjius martial insight might be too low to discern what was happening, but not Ye Qing. Zhao Lan couldve defeated Lin Yuhuai at any time, but he purposely restrained his strength and revealed some openings from time to time so that Lin Yuhuai believed that he still had a chance. Like a cat toying with a mouse, he kept feeding the talisman expert false hope for some unknown purpose.

What on earth is this Zhao Lan plotting? Chu Nianjiu frowned deeply.

Ye Qing shook his head. Im not sure.

Gao Ningan waved off their concerns uncaringly. Itll be fine. Brother Lin is a member of the Pacification Bureau. Unless the guy is crazy, he wouldnt hurt Brother Lin too badly.

Ye Qing frowned but didnt deny Gao Ningans statement.

What is your opinion regarding the rest of the matches, Brother Ye? Who do you think would win? Luo Zhan suddenly joined in on the conversation.

Ye Qing observed the other matches for a bit before answering, I think that Wen Xiaonuan, Wei Bulao and Zhuo Henshui would win!

Wen Xiaonuan and Flower Butterflys duel was a battle between joy and sorrow, literally. If Wen Xiaonuan was overflowing with negative energies such as listlessness, sorrow and despair, then Flower Butterfly was the opposite. As her moniker might suggest, Flower Butterfly was a beautiful woman surrounded by swarms of colorful butterflies. The woman herself was dancing gracefully in the middle of the horde as if she was participating in a performance and not a duel, her bells ringing melodiously with every twitch of the limb.

The butterflies flew toward Wen Xiaonuan as she danced, but they all died before they got close to her. As soon as the butterflies hit the ground, they abruptly burst into flames and gave off some sort of white smoke.

The butterflies Flower Butterfly commanded were no ordinary butterflies. They were Malice-class Strangers known as the Dream Butterflies. A type of social insect, it was said the Dream Butterflies were created from a persons most beautiful hopes and dreams. Normally found in places with lots of plants and especially flowers, they possessed the power to draw a living person into a perfect dream where everything they ever dreamed of came true. They would awake when the Dream Butterflies left their side.

If the Dream Butterfly died, then it would transform into a puff of smoke that would turn that wonderful dream into their worst nightmare. They would be subjected to the worst imaginable horrors, fears, and more. The moment they woke up was also the moment they died.

That was why the books describing the Dream Butterfly included a quote like this:

Life and death in a single dream,

Joy and anger, pleasure and sorrow in a single butterfly.

To put it simply, a living Dream Butterfly would grant a person the most wonderful dreams without harming a hair on their person, but a dead Dream Butterfly would inflict them with the worst nightmares until they died.

The Dream Butterflies were a potent weapon in the right hands, but for some reason, Wen Xiaonuan was completely unaffected by their effects. They were unable to draw her into a dream at all, much less kill her through said dream.

On the other hand, Flower Butterfly was growing paler and paler over time. Even the melodious ringing of her bells were starting to lose their rhythm. It was clear who held the upper hand in this battle. If she didnt have another trump card, then this battle would end in her defeat for sure.

Flower Butterfly is probably the disciple of the Butterfly Keeper. It was said that the Butterfly Keeper was descended from the Butterfly Fairy of the Nanjiang Gu King Abode, and the Butterfly Fairys lineage specializes in raising gu butterflies. Their signature cultivation art, Butterfly Fairy Sutra, teaches two martial arts known as the Butterfly Fairy Dance and the Bewitching Bell. The Butterfly Fairy Dance is used to control the gu butterflies, and the Bewitching Bell is used to muddle the mind.

Luo Zhan gave them a lengthy explanation before concluding, Neither the Butterfly Fairy Dance nor the Bewitching Bell is working on Wen Xiaonuan. I can see why she is going to lose.

Im not sure about Qi Xuanyun and Wei Bulao though. On one hand, Brother Qi wields a repertoire of powerful lightning spells. On the other hand, Wei Bulao uses an unusual palm art. So far, theyre locked in a stalemate, so why are you so certain that Wei Bulao would win, Brother Ye?
