The Heavenly Dao System-Chapter 72: Pleading For Mercy

Whenever Ye Ming recalled Longzu’s action, he was impressed but also disappointed. After all, the fight ended too fast for him to actually enjoy.

However, now that he had stumbled across some random fight, he was going to relish this moment.

"Lan, can you make it easier for me to view the battle?" Ye Ming asked softly.

There was no response, but the flying ship’s interior started to change form and gave him a perfect view of the current scene.

With a clearer view now, Ye Ming noticed the two flying boats had a flag that held the surname Lin whereas the five flying boats held the flag with the surname Xun.

Lin and Xun, a very common surnames in the cultivation world.

At this moment, Qing Lan appeared right beside him.

"Should I reveal their circumstances?" Qing Lan pinched her fingers to make some quick deduction and inquired. Within a few seconds, she had already understood the karma between the two parties.

Ye Ming was naturally dumbfounded by her explanation.

’Damn, just how amazing is my maid?’ He wondered silently.

After some moment, Ye Ming cleared his throat and said, "No need for vast details. Just tell me the leader of the Lin and the leader of the Xun. As for their conflict, make it very brief."

Nodding, Qing Lan quickly reported the matter.

The leader of the flying boat that held the flag of Lin was the heir of the Lin Clan in the Immortal World, Lin Qiuzhen.

Lin Qiuzhen was hailed as the genius daughter of the Lin Clan, having achieved the Immortal Foundation Realm at the age of 30,000.

Keep in mind that the realm name was a deceiving one. It was actually a cultivation realm at the Higher World in the 3rd rank and not the Immortal World.

Currently, Lin Qiuzhen is 45,352 years old. Such a number was actually still considered very young and youthful in the eyes of top cultivators.

Meanwhile, the Leader of the five flying boats with the flag surnamed Xun was another prodigy daughter, Xun Lixue.

At the age of 30,001, she achieved the Immortal Foundation Realm, making her slightly inferior to Lin Qiuzhen by 1 year.

Since then, Xun Lixue has always been compared to Lin Qiuzhen, albeit in a lower manner.

And in recent times, the Xun Clan managed to produce a Heavenly Paragon Realm, which was the peak of the Immortal World cultivation realm aka the 7th rank.

"The peak cultivation realm of the Immortal World could be considered stepping into the threshold of the Celestial World universe, but not quite." Qing Lan ended the brief explanation here.

But the gist was that because the Xun Clan managed to achieve a step closer to the Celestial World when compared to the Lin Clan which fell behind by one realm, they became a target.

"How comical!" Ye Ming smirked and understood the situation now.

"In your eyes, are they even worthy of you taking one of them as a disciple?" He then questioned.

Hearing prodigy this and genius that, Ye Ming seriously wanted to know if those were true in Qing Lan’s eyes.

Almost instantaneously, Qing Lan snorted coldly and exclaimed, "They are trash. Compared to the Young Master, they aren’t even worth a grain of salt."

"Ah, but wasn’t my past self stuck in the Immortal World’s cultivation realm?"

THUD!

Qing Lan suddenly knelt on the ground, her face covered in sweat.

Poor Ye Ming still hadn’t realized his casual response had nearly caused Qing Lan to have a heart attack.

"What’s the matter with you?" Ye Ming raised an eyebrow, completely oblivious to her action. After all, he wasn’t even reprimanding her or anything. He was just having a casual conversation.

However, his thought process remained unknown to Qing Lan, who quickly banged her forehead to the ground.

Seeing her action, it finally prompted Ye Ming to pause for a moment and recall his words from earlier.

Soon, his eyelids twitched as he facepalmed.

"Okay, stop banging your forehead." He cried aloud. "Do I look like some petty bastard who takes each word into account? Like jeez, I was just joking but do you seriously think I believed you were indirectly talking about me being trash?"

Despite saying so, Qing Lan still didn’t dare to get up until Ye Ming threatened to dismiss her as a maid if she continued such behavior.

Only then did Qing Lan get up, but her eyes still contained traces of fear.

And at this moment, Ye Ming came to realize his status power was a complete double-edged sword.

Others feared and revered him because of his background. But at the same time, it isolated him from a lot of things.

Qing Lan’s behavior here reminded him that their status was very far apart. Even though there were moments of intimacy, it was evident that Qing Lan was still very wary of her every word and actions.

Was this what it meant to be placed at the top?

It was really quite lonely.

Sometime later, Ye Ming returned his focus to the battle scene.

By now, the two clans had already begun clashing, but it was evident that the Lin Clan was at a major disadvantage.

Lin Qiuzhen’s eyes were filled with agony and rage when she saw her fellow clan members dying to protect her.

As for Xun Lixue, her eyes displayed a malicious grin when she saw her rival suffering in pain.

"Today shall be the end of your Lin Clan!" Xun Lixue declared.

"But if you agree to become my servant, then maybe I shall spare your Lin Clan." She continued.

Hearing that, Lin Qiuzhen spit on the ground and raised the middle finger. "Hmph, as if I’ll believe your hypocrisy. Your jealousy and envy had long clouded your morality. You will definitely not allow my Lin Clan a chance to rise for revenge."

"You’re right. I have no intention of doing that." Xun Lixue sneered coldly.

But then she suddenly clapped her hands and continued, "I do have no intention, but if I see you get violated by these lovely gentlemen that I invited. Then maybe... just maybe I will spare your clan members to escape here."

As soon as she finished her words, rows of ugly men emerged from the flying ship, each one more hideous looking than the others. As if that wasn’t enough to disgust anyone, their expression revealed signs of lust and greed.

These men knew they had no chance with Xun Lixue and didn’t even dare to look at her. However, their gazes were focused on Lin Qiuzhen. They glanced her up and down, almost as if they could already imagine themselves ravaging such a beauty.

Lin Qiuzhen’s expression was rather ugly when she realized how despicable Xun Lixue could be.

Xun Lixue was about to question whether Lin Qiuzhen was ready to sacrifice herself for the greater good or not until a sudden swooshing sound flew past her.

"WHO?" Initially alarmed and furious, Xun Lixue turned around, only to notice the row of ugly men she had purposely scouted were killed.

More importantly, she couldn’t even sense the culprit.

As for Lin Qiuzhen, her eyes widened in shock as she wondered who her savior was.

Xun Lixue didn’t dare to make any sudden movement, granted that she was wary of the culprit hidden in the dark. For them to act and kill the people around her made it clear that they were stronger than her.

In front of the strong, one could only lower their head. Xun Lixue was only arrogant and prideful because she was strong, but if she were faced with another strong, she could only be submissive.

That was the survival method!

"Senior, please forgive this junior if I have offended you accidentally." Xun Lixue cupped her fist and apologized in the empty universe. "If Senior is willing to forgive this junior, our Xun Clan will do whatever we can to compensate you."

At this moment, Xun Lixue was willing even if the other party wanted to bed her. After all, compared to the flesh of pleasure, staying alive and living for another day was more important.

Once she survived and became stronger, killing them afterward wouldn’t be a problem. As for those who had witnessed the incidents, she would equally silence them.

And on the off-chance that she could never surpass them, having such a strong backer was a great deterrence anyway.

So what if she was ravaged in bed? As long as she had power, who couldn’t she trampled upon?

’Cultivation is always endless and full of possibility. I can always regain my virginity through miraculous pill or cultivation technique.’ Xun Lixue thought to herself.

Meanwhile, Lin Qiuzhen noticed the mysterious Senior’s silence and knew she had to capture this chance.

"Senior, please save this junior’s life. Our Lin Clan will be willing to offer our loyalty to you, even if it means wanting me to service you in bed!" Lin Qiuzhen suppressed the humiliation in her emotions and pleaded heartily.

While the two supposed prodigies were pleading, back at the flying ship that Ye Ming was stationed at, he had a dumbfounded look.

’Fuck... what is wrong with this cultivation world?’ Ye Ming didn’t expect these two to suddenly plead for mercy and even offer themselves to him.
