Instead of feeling grateful towards Alex, Ynes Larkin lashed out at him, slapping a palm on him.
Bish!
Alex was hit on his chest.
Nonetheless, his current defense was still extremely strong, and he still had Neela to help him on the
inside. Not only was Alex unharmed from the blow, but it also triggered Neelaâs counterattack A fist
covered in greenish-golden dragon scales rushed out ruthlessly and collided against Ynesâ palm.
In terms of physical strength, Ynes was no match for Neela. In addition, there was a hole in her thigh,
which seriously affected the potency of her attack.
With a cry, Ynes was sent flying backward by Neela.
Breena Davey did not know what transpired, only seeing Ynesâ body flinging backward. Without saying
anything, she raised her sword and slashed it towards Ynesâ back.
âThis old fart!â
Even though Alex didnât like Ynesâ attitude and actions, he felt even more disgusted toward Breena, the
sect master of Yorkshire Palace. That woman looked kind on the outside, but was in fact, extremely
selfish. She acted like some merciful goddess when nothing affected her interest. Once her reputation
was involved, however, she would turn completely vile, striking down those who threatened her without
care if they were friend or foe.
To have such a master, Ynes really was pitiful!
Breenaâs blade missed Ynes. Instead, it sliced onto the top of a large, bronze bell.
It was Alex who had called out the Requiem Clock, which he used to cover Ynesâ entire body.
And, the sound of the bell being struck sent out a wave of magnificent Buddhist power. Breenaâs
eardrums swelled from the sound, and her entire spirit was traumatized and muddled by it.
In that small gap, Alex called back the Requiem Clock and dragged Ynes back.
âFoolish girl⦠You now know that your master is not a good person, right?
âYouâd even die for a master like that? Are you out of your mind?â
âMy life was given to me by my master,â Ynes rebuked.
âI have complaints about how she treats me. Master, Iâm willing to die. Iâm willing to atone for the sins of
Yorkshire Palace. Cut off my head. I wonât resistâ
Breenaâs ears still buzzed, and her eyes were glazed over. It felt like her lungs were about to explode.
In her mind, Ynes was snuggling in Alexâs arms.
What she said also sounded more like sarcasm.
âYnes Larkin⦠Still wonât admit that you have an affair with him? You sinful disciple, how dare you
collude with an outsider and try to kill me? Youâre worse than a pig!â Breena roared.
âI didnât, master. I really didnâtâ¦â
âProve it to me then. Kill this man!â
The more Alex watched the plot develop, the more melodramatic he felt it was. Breena was a woman
devoid of all humanity, and Ynes was a stupid and simple holy maiden, one even stupider than a pig.
He almost blew his top from the anger coursing through his veins, but he still felt that it was his fault
that Ynes had been reduced to this state⦠And he couldnât just leave her be.
A myriad of emotions surged through him. As the saying went, in for a penny, in for a pound.
He held Ynesâ waist and suddenly kissed her on her red lips, even licking it forcefully. While Ynes was
frozen and stunned by his actions, Alex said to Breena, âI have fornicated with your disciple. What
about it, huh? You old fart⦠Whether you believe it or not, what if I release news that I too have an
affair with you? The sect master of Yorkshire Palace hid a beautiful man in a secret room, doing implicit
things every night. The man then shifted his affections to the holy maiden after getting bored with old
meat, moving to live in the forbidden area. Once this title is released, I guarantee your Yorkshire Palace
will be the hot topic. You can even consider this as free advertising.â
When Breena heard this, her eyes bulged, almost falling out of her head. It was too shameless.
There was no limit to how shameless he was!
Once such news spread, Breenaâs reputation would be completely ruined, even her death wouldnât
wash away the taint on her name.
âYou⦠You⦠Youâ¦!â
