"Hehe, asking me to harm the woman I love, I truly can't bear it." Ye Xiao laughed lightly.

Ryokawa Hemei looked at Ye Xiao and said coldly, "I advise you to use your real skills because I will show no mercy unless you can capture my heart."

"Seems like I should put in a bit of effort." Ye Xiao said with a smile.

"You better!" Ryokawa Hemei said coldly, preparing to charge at Ye Xiao.

But just at that moment, Ye Xiao suddenly said, "Wait a second!"

At this moment, hearing Ye Xiao's words, both Ryokawa Hemei, who was preparing to attack, and the already dumbfounded Feng Xinming and Ye Xiao himself were somewhat puzzled, clearly wanting to know what Ye Xiao wanted to say now.

"What are you up to?" Ryokawa Hemei looked at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao smiled slightly and said, "There's a very important question I really want to ask you. Once I've asked it, even dying would be worth it."

Listening to Ye Xiao's somewhat casual words, Ryokawa Hemei was instantly a bit helpless. What does this guy mean? In the state of Forbidden Curse Martial Skill, who doesn't want to quickly defeat their opponent? But now Ye Xiao had the leisure to chat here.

"Whatever you want to say, make it quick. I don't have time to waste here with you." Ryokawa Hemei looked at Ye Xiao and said coldly.

Ye Xiao looked at Ryokawa Hemei and said, "As a Martial Artist, you surely know that the stronger the Martial Artist, the stronger the aptitude of their descendants, right?"

"Yes, why do you ask this?" Ryokawa Hemei looked at Ye Xiao, a bit impatiently. After all, speaking such words in this situation seemed somewhat redundant, didn't it?

Ye Xiao suddenly said seriously, "I've thought about it. If you became my wife, our descendants wouldn't just have excellent martial arts aptitude; they would also be handsome boys, who could enjoy the company of many beauties and become an uncrowned king. Therefore, I strongly suggest that we should cooperate."

"What the hell!" Ryokawa Hemei couldn't help saying out loud. She never imagined that Ye Xiao would say something like this at such a time. Does this guy have a problem with his brain, or was his head kicked by a donkey?

Not only was Ryokawa Hemei on the verge of collapse, but Feng Xinming and Songzhu Mingsan were also somewhat collapsing.

Just what type of person is Ye Xiao, to ask such questions about offspring in this situation? Is this considered flirting?

Moreover, the most important thing is, he was incredibly serious at this moment.

Ryokawa Hemei decided to kill the man in front of her because if she didn't, she wouldn't have any peace for the rest of her life.

"I'm going to kill you!" Ryokawa Hemei shouted almost explosively, and then her entire being vanished from the spot.

Of course, the so-called disappearance was merely due to speed being so fast that the watching eyes couldn't handle the lightning-fast movements.

But Ye Xiao stood there, smiling, his eyes watching Ryokawa Hemei come closer and closer.

Ye Xiao's strength had already approached the middle stage of the Earth Rank, and now, entering the Mad God State, his strength surged by almost two levels instantly, meaning Ye Xiao's strength now was completely between the late stage and Low-level Peak of the Earth Rank, surpassing the late stage of the Earth Rank. How could this strength be described as anything less than formidable?

So, under the situation where Ye Xiao's overall strength had dramatically increased, when his eyes watched Ryokawa Hemei charging forward, he was not as surprised as Feng Xinming or Songzhu Mingsan, but looked at her with a very calm gaze.

Whoosh!

Finally, Ye Xiao moved because Ryokawa Hemei had reached him with a hand like ice, about to approach Ye Xiao in an instant.

Ryokawa Hemei was very serious at the time.

She wasn't a person who cared about honesty with others, but she had to keep her promises to herself.

This was an utterly similar quality between Ryokawa Hemei and Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao could deceive anyone, but he would not deceive himself, for he can't deceive himself.

Ryokawa Hemei was the same; she could deceive the world, but she couldn't deceive her own heart.

Because that heart was her own.

Ryokawa Hemei made an oath, the most poisonous kind, so she knew it must be fulfilled, but because of this oath, losing today would mean losing herself.

If she lost, dying wouldn't be the worst, but she would lose herself.

She now even regretted not setting stricter conditions when she swore back then.

Confidence, indeed, confidence. It was because she was simply too confident.

So, Ryokawa Hemei knew she had to win today, even if heavily injured, she had to win.

However, just when Ryokawa Hemei used all her True Qi to deliver a palm strike at Ye Xiao, whether it was point one second or point zero one second, Ye Xiao suddenly disappeared – no, rather, Ye Xiao moved.

He successfully dodged Ryokawa Hemei's full-power attack.

What?

Did he really dodge it?

That palm, which combined speed and strength, was surprisingly dodged with a smile by Ye Xiao.

The eerie smile startled Ryokawa Hemei directly. She had always been confident in her abilities, but today, she felt unusually doubtful.

In that instant, Ryokawa Hemei contemplated many things, but it was only in a flash of a moment.

Finally!

Ryokawa Hemei realized that her palm had missed.

At that moment, Ye Xiao appeared on Ryokawa Hemei's left side. His hand formed a palm with a ball of flames in the center, flames that seemed to burn as if doused with gasoline.

Fire Demolishing Palm!

This is a Yellow Rank Palm Skill!

But in Ye Xiao's hand, propelled by the Nine Yang True Qi, this Fire Demolishing Palm had the power to destroy heaven and earth, especially since Ye Xiao was in the Mad God State, it was truly unstoppable like a surging river.

Although Ryokawa Hemei's palm missed, she quickly withdrew her hand skill. Now it's too late to counterattack, so she immediately pressed her palms together, adopting a defensive posture to block.

At this moment, Ryokawa Hemei looked at Ye Xiao. His strange face revealed a smile, which surprised her. For some reason, she suddenly felt a shadow that made her feel very close to him.

Casual, arrogant, presumptuous, confident...

All these qualities she possessed, she saw in Ye Xiao, for the first time seeing her reflection in someone else.

Though it seems slow, it actually happened extremely fast; it all occurred within a blink.

Ye Xiao and Ryokawa Hemei, one attacking and one defending, gathered at a point.

At the moment Ye Xiao's Fire Demolishing Palm touched Ryokawa Hemei, she flew out.

Very fair!

Ryokawa Hemei had knocked Ye Xiao flying twice, and Ye Xiao had knocked Ryokawa Hemei flying twice as well. The only difference was Ye Xiao vomited blood both times, whereas Ryokawa Hemei was quite fortunate. The first time she only looked a bit pale, and this time, while more severe, it did not reach the point of vomiting blood.

As Ryokawa Hemei was knocked flying, Ye Xiao shadowed her closely, even reaching her side. At this moment, Ryokawa Hemei's eyes returned to normal, clearly indicating that Ryokawa Hemei's Forbidden Curse Martial Skill had disappeared.

Both landed, Ye Xiao looked at the Ryokawa Hemei in his arms, his face breaking into a smile, the blood-red eyes and hair gradually returning to normal.

Ryokawa Hemei's face looked even paler than before, yet her eyes were fixed on Ye Xiao. She understood that when Ye Xiao's Fire Demolishing Palm hit her, he held back at least fifty percent of his strength. Otherwise, she believed she would have died for sure.

"You won!" Ryokawa Hemei looked at Ye Xiao, though unwilling to admit it, this was indeed the truth.

If Ye Xiao hadn't shown mercy, she would have died, no doubt about it.

Ye Xiao looked at Ryokawa Hemei, his smile deepening as he said, "Are you willing to follow me? To bear a child of exceptional talent for me?"

"I swear to keep my promise, and never to regret it!" Ryokawa Hemei looked at Ye Xiao, finally saying this.

When Ye Xiao heard Ryokawa Hemei's words, he laughed immediately. He understood he had won, won a beautiful bride.

"Good, excellent!" Ye Xiao looked at Ryokawa Hemei, his eyebrows suddenly furrowed, and then he abruptly pushed Ryokawa Hemei aside.

Ryokawa Hemei was pushed away by Ye Xiao, and rolled on the ground, immediately looking at Ye Xiao in surprise. Clearly, she was puzzled, unsure why Ye Xiao suddenly pushed her away.

But as she raised her head, she saw Ye Xiao stand up and cover his chest, suddenly spitting out a mouthful of blood.

This blood wasn't bright red; it was dim.

Ye Xiao couldn't help but kneeled on one leg, supporting himself with one hand, struggling not to collapse.

Ryokawa Hemei was even more shocked, completely unaware of what had happened.

"Ye Xiao!" Ryokawa Hemei looked at Ye Xiao in amazement.

Ye Xiao raised his head and looked at Ryokawa Hemei, saying, "I didn't expect this small Fire Demolishing Palm to have such a severe backlash. If you regret and try to kill me now, I am utterly defenseless."

Upon hearing this, Ryokawa Hemei was suddenly shocked, and she understood that Ye Xiao was seriously injured and vomiting blood not because he lost to her, but because he had withdrawn over half of his power when using the Fire Demolishing Palm on her, causing a backlash and thus resulting in serious injury.

"Ye Xiao, prepare to die!"

As Ryokawa was shocked, suddenly Feng Xinming's words came, and at the same moment, Feng Xinming rapidly charged from afar towards the now seriously injured Ye Xiao.
