C611 Big Black Girl
Yun'er unexpectedly leaned in and gave Woo Zhengyang a quick kiss, leaving him completely stunned. No doubt, this was Huo'er's idea. Although Yun'er had nearly a thousand years of spiritual awareness and had taken human form for over four centuries, she was still quite naive about human interactions. This made her even more genuine than Bing'er and the others. She didn't care what anyone else thought, except for Woo Zhengyang. Huo'er must have told her to just go for it, so she did.
Woo Zhengyang was a bit taken aback by the kiss, but he wasn't about to complain about it either, so he just accepted Yun'er's action. Meanwhile, Lee Yuanye watched with envy, his eyes wide open.
"Mr. Zhengyang, you're impressive! You've got a way with the ladies. I admit defeat!" Lee Yuanye complimented him, more sincerely than ever before.
The other onlookers, including some young disciples from the Martial Mansion, were all green with envy seeing the beautiful woman in white seeking a kiss. When they heard Woo Zhengyang had initially declined, they were internally cursing, wishing they could take his place. And when they saw her kiss him anyway, their jealousy reached new heights.
Among the crowd, the most intense reaction came from the Black-robed Holy Nun of the Moon Light Martial Mansion. She had tried to inquire about Yun'er's background, only to be ignored as Yun'er focused on Woo Zhengyang. As a staunch feminist, this infuriated her, making her tremble with anger, even more than when she was injured earlier.
"You... you... in broad daylight, you actually..." The Black-robed Holy Nun was so furious she could hardly speak. Unfortunately, her entire body was cloaked in black, hiding her appearance. Otherwise, her expression would surely have been quite a sight.
"We... we... what about us, huh? Hey, lady, now you get it! The purpose of a woman is to be adored by men! You feminists are all heretics!" Lee Yuanye exclaimed, taking the opportunity to mock her without hesitation.
"What did you just call me?"
"Hey, lady, or maybe you'd prefer something else?"
"You're asking for it!" Unable to hold back any longer, the Black-robed Holy Nun swung her blade at Lee Yuanye.
"Yun'er, help!" Lee Yuanye shouted, but instead of dodging, he positioned himself in front of the stone platform.
That platform was the most intricate part of the Invincible Cannon Car, and it couldn't afford any damage. Now that the Invincible Cannon Car had lost its protective barrier, if the Black-robed Holy Nun's strike landed, it would be ruined.
Yun'er understood how crucial the Invincible Cannon Car was to both Woo Zhengyang and Lee Yuanye, so she couldn't just stand by. Her white silk ribbon danced through the air, transforming into a protective veil in front of the Invincible Cannon Car.
"Clang..."
Though the veil was as thin as a cicada's wing, it seemed to turn into an impenetrable shield. The Black-robed Holy Nun's blade clashed against it, producing a sound like clashing swords. By now, everyone was convinced of Yun'er's skills; such speed and defense were not achieved by mere luck.
"What level are you? Why... why is this happening?" The Black-robed Holy Nun was visibly shaken, repeatedly questioning.
Unfortunately, Yun'er still ignored her.
"Hey, are you clueless? She already said she's Mr. Zhengyang's maid. If Mr. Zhengyang doesn't speak, do you think she will? You should be asking Mr. Zhengyang. If he's in a good mood, he might just answer you," Lee Yuanye teased the Black-robed Holy Nun, still cheeky despite his recent scare.
"Hmph!" The Black-robed Holy Nun snorted but couldn't help glancing at Woo Zhengyang. After a long pause, she seemed to muster up the courage to ask, "Woo Zhengyang, what level is she?"
Woo Zhengyang had no obligation to tell the Black-robed Holy Nun anything, especially given her reluctant tone, so he naturally ignored her.
"I mean, do you even understand the situation? Do you know what a reversal is? It wasn't long ago that you were all high and mighty, pushing us to the brink. Now it's your Moon Light Martial Mansion that's been taken down by just a few of us, and you're still acting all arrogant? And you expect Mr. Zhengyang to pay you any attention?"
"You..." The Black-robed Holy Nun was probably on the verge of tears from anger, but she held back her fury and looked at Woo Zhengyang, saying, "Mr. Zhengyang, could you please tell me..."
The Black-robed Holy Nun finally mustered up the courage, only to be ruthlessly interrupted again by Lee Yuanye.
"Do you know how a woman should refer to herself? You should say it like this: 'Mr. Zhengyang, it was my mistake earlier. Could you please tell me about the abilities of the celestial being in your family?'" Lee Yuanye mimicked a coy demeanor, fawning over Woo Zhengyang.
"Get lost, stop disgusting my master!" Huo'er couldn't stand it anymore and snapped.
"I..." The Black-robed Holy Nun was utterly defeated this time.
"Alright, it's no harm in telling you. Yun'er is at the peak of the Martial Emperor level!" Woo Zhengyang didn't enjoy humiliating others. Seeing that the Black-robed Holy Nun was genuinely concerned and had lowered her stance, he decided not to make things difficult for her.
"The peak of the Martial Emperor level!"
As soon as Woo Zhengyang finished speaking, the people of the Moon Light Martial Mansion were in an uproar. Such a level of ability was something they had never encountered before. Even if they had speculated, hearing the truth was still shocking.
Amidst the shock, the expressions of the Moon Light Martial Mansion members turned grim. Someone at the peak of the Martial Emperor level could easily obliterate their mansion.
Many began to quietly retreat.
Woo Zhengyang didn't stop them. He was never afraid of leaving behind enemies. Besides, whether he would return to this world was uncertain, and there was no need to eliminate everyone. As long as the Black-robed Holy Nun couldn't leave, that was enough.
No need to worry about that. Even if everyone else leaves, the Black-robed Holy Nun won't. The sacred artifact of the Moon Light Martial Mansion is here, so she can't stray too far.
"Wow! Is Yun'er really a peak Martial Emperor? Zhengyang, why didn't you tell me?" Lee Yuanye exclaimed. He had met Yun'er and the others before, always assuming Yun'er was on par with Bing'er and the rest. He never imagined Yun'er was a peak Martial Emperor, and now he couldn't help but shout in surprise.
"You never asked us!" Huo'er retorted, seizing the chance to vent her frustration at Lee Yuanye. "Now you know how powerful we are! Next time you don't listen, Yun'er will teach you a lesson."
"So, the third spirit treasure is with you? But even with it, breaking through in this world is incredibly difficult. How could she possibly become a peak Martial Emperor?" the Black-robed Holy Nun said incredulously.
"Not everyone is like you, training alone in solitude. Yun'er has Mr. Zhengyang's full support. Becoming a Martial Emperor is no big deal for her. I suggest you find someone to support you too, instead of trying to do everything on your own," Lee Yuanye said, redirecting his earlier frustration with Huo'er toward the Black-robed Holy Nun.
"Get out of here!" The Black-robed Holy Nun finally lost her patience and shouted at Lee Yuanye.
