35 Chapter 35: Exchanging Lives

"Hahaha! Thought it was someone powerfull? Turns out it's just a little brat!" Xiong Ge laughed mockingly, flexing his muscular arms. "I wonder if you can withstand one of my moves?"

"I highly doubt it!" Zuo teng crossed his arms, leaning against a tree, looking disdainfully at Ye Qiu.

Can Bao timely waved his hand to interrupt them, watching Ye Qiu with interest, glancing at the bandage on his second miss's leg.

Pointing at her leg wound, "Kid, did you save her?"

"Indeed!" Ye Qiu calmly faced them. "Any issues with that?"

Clap, clap!

"Hehe, got some guts!" Can Bao clapped his hands, sneering. "No issues, but it seems my brothers' deaths also have your involvement!"

"So what?" Ye Qiu picked his ears.

"So, you'll have to pay with your life!" Watching Ye Qiu's nonchalant actions, Can Bao was enraged, his soul power surging, ready to strike!

"No!" A voice from behind stopped him.

"Oh? What orders does the Second Miss have?" Can Bao stared at her coldly, like she was a dead person.

"Haha, big brother, I think she wants to beg for this guy's life!" Xiong Di pulled her hair, teasingly jerking it upwards.

And indeed, she seemed to have exhausted all her strength, her voice filled with a sob, "As long as... as long as you spare him, I... I don't care how you deal with me!"

Laughing cynically, Can Bao mocked her, "Haha! I wonder how the Third Prince would feel if he knew about this scene?" Then, with a gaze full of murderous intent, he looked at Ye Qiu. "Forgive me; I can't comply. If he dies, you're next. None of you can escape!"

Listening to their conversation, Ye Qiu finally understood their identities. He hadn't expected the girl he saved to be Zhu Zhuqing! Since she is willing to sacrifice her dignity, trade her body to spare his life, what more was there to say? Let's get it over with!

"Don't worry! I will save you!" Ye Qiu smiled at Zhu Zhuqing.

In the blink of an eye, blood-red appeared in his eyes, indicating his readiness for battle.

"Xiong Di, continue playing! Xiong Ge, go deal with him!" Can Bao, seeing the young man's ignorance, lost interest in handling it himself.

Following orders, Xiong Ge rushed towards Ye Qiu. Before leaving, he teased Xiong Di, "Little brother, don't finish too quickly!"

"Don't worry; I'll leave you something to enjoy!"

Ignoring Xiong Di's reaching hands, Zhu Zhuqing shouted at Ye Qiu, "Run!"

Upon hearing her words, Ye Qiu obeyed and started running towards Xiong Ge.

"Kid, you're asking for death! Second Spirit Skill, Explosive Bear Palm!"

Flames ignited on Xiong Ge's fan-like palm as he swung it towards Ye Qiu's head!

Ye Qiu met him head-on, and his three tomoe eyes instantly transformed into a hexagram!

Pop! ×4, except for Xiong Di, the others were all shocked!

"What's going on?" Xiong Ge's eyes showed disbelief, unable to stop his forward attack, directly piercing through Ye Qiu's body.

Meanwhile, Ye Qiu, with a clear target, headed straight for Zhu Zhuqing's position!

Xiong Ge quickly turned around, yelling at Xiong Di, "Brother, be careful!"

Startled by the sound, Can Bao snapped back to reality, reminding Xiong Di, "Xiong Di, be cautious; this kid is tricky!"

"What?" Xiong Di's groping hand hung in mid-air, his eyes looking strangely at his older brother.

What caught the eye was Ye Qiu's crimson eyes, and he had already rushed to him!

Under the influence of the illusion, he stood frozen in place.

Swoosh! A cold light arrived first.

Chirp! A short arrow had already pierced his throat. It was a sleeve arrow!

Spurt! Blood gushed out, splashing on Zhu Zhuqing's face. She stared blankly at Ye Qiu running towards her! How did he manage to do it?

"Ugh!" Xiong Di looked at Ye Qiu in disbelief. At the end of his life, he wondered how Ye Qiu appeared here. He fell straight down.

Ye Qiu smoothly scooped up Zhu Zhuqing into his arms!

"Brother!" Xiong Ge roared. Everything happened too quickly! Even Can Bao and Zuo teng beside him hadn't reacted.

Ye Qiu, in his rush, even activated the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track. Combined with their underestimation of him, he swiftly killed Xiong Di, rescuing Zhu Zhuqing, all within a few seconds!

"Zuo teng! Attack!" Can Bao was furious. Another of his brothers was gone!

Without him saying more, Zuo teng had already summoned his Martial Soul.

"First and second soul skills, Demon Vine Extension, Hardening!"

Several vines transformed into long spears, thrusting towards Ye Qiu, who had just taken Zhu Zhuqing.

Can Bao also activated his second soul skill, charging towards Ye Qiu.

"Be careful!" Zhu Zhuqing, seeing the attacks coming from behind, hastily warned!

Ye Qiu turned around, his Divine Might activated in his eyes. A tiger and an ox appeared behind him!

Plap! The attacks from Can Bao and Zuo teng landed on the bodies of the two soul beasts.

Taking advantage of this opening, Ye Qiu turned around and faced the opponents, lifted his leg, and retreated, creating a safe distance!

"What's going on with this kid? Where did these soul beasts come from?" Can Bao, with a gloomy face, stared at him.

"Kid, return my brother's life!" Hatred clouded Xiong Ge's mind; he didn't have many thoughts at this moment.

Black Bear Possession! Third soul skill, Power Charge!

"Zuo teng, pull him back!"

"Xiong Ge!" Zuo teng released vines, attempting to pull him back, but it was a beat too slow.

"Damn it!" With things reaching this point, Can Bao dared not rush forward recklessly. His soul power had been considerably depleted when surrounded by the Dark Shadow Spider Horde earlier.

Seeing Xiong Ge like an enraged bull, stomping on the ground, leaving craters, Zhu Zhuqing reminded, "Ye Qiu, he's coming!"

"Shut up!" Ye Qiu stopped her; he needed to concentrate! He closed his left eye and focused it on Xiong Ge.

This move, he was using it on a person for the first time!

"Divine Migh!"(spatial Distortion)

His gaze focused on Xiong Ge's neck, and he completely ignored everything else.

"Eh!" Xiong Ge, not knowing what happened, charged towards Ye Qiu despite the pain!

Ye Qiu didn't expect this guy to be so foolish, not even dodging when in pain!

Plap! Just before colliding with Ye Qiu, his neck suddenly exploded.

Boom! The lifeless body collapsed at Ye Qiu's feet.

"Ah~" Zhu Zhuqing screamed in horror, clutching his collar tightly.

Ye Qiu's face was now covered in blood and minced flesh, dripping onto Zhu Zhuqing in his arms.

"Big Brother Xiong Ge's neck... how did it suddenly break!" Zuo teng was also horrified, cold sweat breaking out on his back.

Can Bao shook his head, his face solemn. He also didn't know; the opponent clearly hadn't used any soul skills.

"So noisy." Ye Qiu's face, smeared with blood and flesh, revealed a ghastly smile towards the remaining two. In his bloody eyes, only the teeth were still white.
