Chapter 320.1: Long Awaited Embrace

Yan Po’s gaze turned sharp. “I do not care what you might be up to here. Sovereign has ordered for me to bring the lass back and I don’t think that you would not stop me from doing that would you?”

“What you want to do does not concern me.” The black clothed Lian Shi said coldly.

Qing Yu raised an eyebrow and before she had even opened her mouth, she saw the white clothed man beside her shift his body slightly to hide her behind him as he looked at Yan Po to say in a soft voice. “You are not in a position to stick your nose into the little one’s affairs. I do not think that you want to see me draw my sword.”

Qing Yu was a little surprised to see the man’s actions that clearly showed he was protecting her.

She could not understand why he was helping her like this.

It was said that the man was the mightiest entity among the demon race and even though he was now incomplete, merely a remnant shadow of his former self, his powers were still not to be underestimated.

Her gaze involuntarily drifted towards the sword grasped in the man’s hand.

It seemed like that sword had not left the man’s grasp from the moment he appeared. Back when they were at the bottom of the lake, it had nearly been pulled out of its sheath by the mischievous little toddler but the man had quickly pushed it back, seemingly very careful with that sword.

What could be so special about it?

Faced with one in black and one in white, two Lian Shi before her, putting Qing Yu’s attitude aside, one of the Lian Shi was dead set on going against her.

Yan Po could not help feeling a little enraged, and that cold and impassive face finally cracked. She clenched her teeth tightly together and said: “Lian Shi, just what are you really playing at? I am exactly inclined to play games with you. Don’t think just because you are favoured by Sovereign and that gives you free rein to do as you please without paying any heed to others! If you do not want to end up being punished by Sovereign, then capture that little lass and bring her back right now! !”

The black clothed Lian Shi had originally not wanted to stick his nose into the matter.

But, with the return of the real “Lian Shi”, the demonic heart in his body was undergoing a series of changes, which warped and distorted his personality, making him become unruly and bloodthirsty.

Yan Po words rang in his ears. To him, it was an unveiled threat and blatant challenge to him, her tone making him feel like she was ordering him about.

That quickly riled up his emotions and his violet eyes turned sharp in an instant, seemingly stained with a blood red tinge.

The corners of his lips lifted up in a wide curl, to reveal two rows of sinisterly white teeth, a terrifying and frightful sight. His voice came out soft and slow, like he was biting on every single word. “The thing I hate the most, is when people talk to me with that kind of a tone.”

Tsk. He is no longer…..

No longer the same weak and defenceless useless piece of trash that anyone can wantonly trample upon from before!
