Chapter 150: Oh, the Palace Master is Embarrassed Again

“Palace Master, didn’t you say… it would be a long time before you had a chance to take revenge on Ye Xuan?”

The sudden appearance of Ye Xuan being bound in the visual made everyone in the Jade Fox Palace pause.

Soon after, a fox asked Hu Qianzao, “But in the blink of an eye, you’ve captured Ye Xuan… aren’t you too impressive?”

She looked naive, with disbelief and a bit of admiration in her eyes. Considering Ye Xuan’s previous performance against the immortal Ren Bai, he had the strength to fight.

Although Hu Qianzao has the bloodline of the Nine-Tailed Spirit, she couldn’t have grown so quickly, right? Or has a long time passed in the visual in the blink of an eye?!

Regardless, seeing the previously proud Ye Xuan fall into Hu Qianzao’s hands made everyone in the Jade Fox Palace very happy. They all looked at Hu Qianzao with admiration and respect.

“Ha ha ha, who would have thought, Ye Xuan, who was once so arrogant, also has this moment.”

“See, Ye Xuan, this is the result of your many evils—!”

Some people firmly believed that the current Ye Xuan was already planning evil deeds, so they did not hesitate to mock him openly.

However, at this moment, watching the visual, only Hu Qianzao had a face full of confusion. Thinking about the scenes in the visual, she wondered to herself.

When did I capture Ye Xuan?!

And moreover, Ye Xuan was bound and seemed to have been tortured, which wasn’t the case. At least, she doesn’t remember ever doing such things.

But now, everyone had already started celebrating and praising her continuously.

“This is just retribution, not that it never comes, just that its time hadn’t come yet.” The female immortal Hu Lan of the Jade Fox Palace looked at Ye Xuan with a very satisfied expression in her eyes.

“Whether it’s the future you or the current you, you have fallen into our hands.” Saying this, she raised her lips.

“You’d better not let us find out that you are already involved in a conspiracy against the Jade Fox Palace, otherwise, you won’t only die, you will wish you were dead—!”

Ren Bai didn’t say much, just looking at Ye Xuan with a cold gaze. His eyes still carried murderous intent.

Even if the current Ye Xuan wasn’t involved in the conspiracy against the Jade Fox Palace, that event is going to happen soon, and he must have some connection to this conspiracy.

Just for that, the Jade Fox Palace will definitely not let Ye Xuan go. It’s no wonder, considering Ye Xuan’s strength was so great that he could manage so many moves in his hands and still use tricks to escape.

For dealing with Ye Xuan, the palace master not only let herself and Hu Lan come out of seclusion but also used the great formation of the Jade Fox Palace.

With Ye Xuan’s strength, if they didn’t use such measures, it would indeed be easy for him to escape. In dealing with such a person, one must be cautious.

“Palace Master, how did you torture Ye Xuan?”

“Don’t just let him die easily—!”

“Yes, he must pay the price for what he has done—!”

“This kind of person, even if sent to the underworld and subjected to all eighteen levels of hellish punishment, it still wouldn’t be enough—!”

Seeing Ye Xuan bound and tortured in the visual, everyone was excited and curiously asked Hu Qianzao.

“Why don’t we get to see how Ye Xuan is being tortured? I really look forward to seeing him regretful and in pain.” A woman with a wolf tail said coldly.

“Uh…” Faced with everyone’s questions, Hu Qianzao herself was puzzled.

Had she really done so much? Wasn’t it that after capturing Ye Xuan, she just killed him and took her revenge?

Could it be that her memory was wrong, and she actually tortured him for a while after capturing him? Hmm, it must be so—!!!

But now she couldn’t remember the details of that time, and even if she wanted to let everyone know how she tortured Ye Xuan, she couldn’t say it.

However, since everyone is so happy now, naturally, she couldn’t dampen their spirits.

She simply said, “Just keep watching, it won’t disappoint you…”

Thinking about it, just killing Ye Xuan that simply back then was indeed too lenient for him. Perhaps she really did torture Ye Xuan in various ways, but because of reincarnation, her memory was mistaken, and she forgot?

Thinking this, she felt even more confident.

“Oh?!!” Hearing this, everyone in the Jade Fox Palace showed excited expressions.

“Great, that big villain is finally getting his comeuppance—!!!”

Even the little fox loli who was just speaking up for Ye Xuan was now gritting her teeth with hatred for him.

She clenched her little fists and looked up at the visual in the sky. Yet, in her eyes, there was a hint of fear towards the current Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan was truly too terrifying.

In the visual, she was one of those cruelly killed by the black-clothed men brought by Ye Xuan…

Now, she just wanted to see how the future big villain Ye Xuan would be tortured by the palace master.

———

In the visual, Ye Xuan’s hands and feet were both bound by chains of evil qi, and standing in front of him, Hu Qianzao was slightly smirking at him.

On her face hung a hint of triumph, slowly approaching Ye Xuan.

Just when everyone thought she was going to start cruelly torturing Ye Xuan, she instead reached out to Ye Xuan’s face, a look of infatuation on her face, and said, “Ye Lang, I’ve come to see you again, have you missed me during this time?”

As she spoke, she even raised her lips and leaned in to kiss Ye Xuan’s face, but she was met with Ye Xuan’s disdainful avoidance.

(TL: Lang is used in a person name to show affect it’s like “dear” or “darling.”)

———

“Uh?!!”

Everyone waiting to see the Palace Master Hu Qianzao apply cruel retribution on that bastard Ye Xuan were stunned.

Ah, what…

What’s going on?!!

Palace Master, what about the revenge you promised?!! Everyone’s gaze turned to Hu Qianzao, full of question marks. Is this your way of taking revenge on Ye Xuan?

Hu Qianzao was completely bewildered, as what she did in the visual was completely different from what she imagined she would do.

How could she possibly call Ye Xuan “Ye Lang,” and moreover, try to kiss him? And to be disdainfully avoided by him?!!

It seemed as if she had captured Ye Xuan and was forcing him into something.

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

At this moment, Qingxue and Yu Ling’er were also taken aback, then burst into laughter.

“Pfft…hahaha…”

After laughing, Qingxue spoke, “Palace Master of the Jade Fox Palace, could it be that you ended up falling in love with Ye Xuan, so when it came time to take your revenge, you couldn’t bring yourself to kill him and just locked him up instead?!!”

“–!!!”

Hu Qianzao’s face turned red all of a sudden. She looked embarrassed and utterly incredulous.

“Impossible… How could I possibly do such a thing—!!!” She shook her head frantically.

Forgetting that she had once imprisoned and tortured Ye Xuan was one thing, but she couldn’t possibly forget something like this, right?

Moreover, she had only ever had a liking for Ye Xuan, never to the extent of love. So, this was absolutely impossible—!!!

“Are you saying that you didn’t do this?” Yu Ling’er said, “Then how do you explain everything in the visual?!”

“This…” Hu Qianzao was at a loss for words.

“This…” Ren Bai and Hu Lan looked at each other, then Hu Lan spoke, “Palace Master… could it be that you… already remembered the matter about you being Hu Qian’er, so you couldn’t bear to be harsh on Ye Xuan due to old affections, and showed mercy?”

With that, the people of the Jade Fox Palace started looking at Hu Qianzao strangely.

“Speaking of which, the Palace Master seemed to have the intention to let Ye Xuan go earlier; she might actually still have lingering feelings for Ye Xuan.”

“What kind of person would have lingering feelings for him, even if I am Hu Qian’er, I wouldn’t fall for such a villain—!!” Hu Qianzao angrily said, “Stop talking nonsense—!!!”

“Then, Palace Master… how do you explain this? Why were you keeping Ye Xuan locked up, calling him ‘Ye Lang,’ and doing these things with him?!” The little fox girl asked Hu Qianzao.

Hu Qianzao was momentarily speechless. She truly did not know why she would do such things. Because she simply didn’t remember ever doing them.
