Enchantress Amongst Alchemists: Ghost King's Wife Chapter 1230 God King High Realm

With a sneer, Qian Ye lifted her chin, advancing with imposing steps toward Xiao Yu.

An aura of dominance emanated from her person as she moved forward…

"Xiao Yu, your ambition to rival me is nothing but delusion. Furthermore, let me make this clear: you are utterly insignificant compared to me! I had already abandoned all hope for that man, Qi Mo, the moment he struck me to shield you! Yet, you persist in tormenting me, relentlessly attempting to harm and extinguish the lives of my companions! Thus, I shall settle this score with you now!"

Xiao Yu flinched back two paces. Her lips trembled as she fixed Qian Ye with a venomous glare.

The residual effects of her secret technique were already draining her strength, leaving her limbs heavy and unresponsive…

"You can neither kill me nor dare to do so! However, I most certainly will not let you off. Should the opportunity arise, I swear I will tear your body asunder, ensuring you meet a gruesome end without even a whole body to claim!"

Xiao Yu felt no fear, for she knew her master would intervene to protect her, and Qian Ye would never dare defy her master's decree…

Qian Ye ceased speaking. She merely raised the sword gripped in her hand high above, gazing down upon Xiao Yu.

"I shall soon demonstrate whether I dare to kill you or not!"

'As the empire's princess, there is nothing I, Qian Ye, would not dare to do…'

As Qian Ye brought her sword down towards Xiao Yu, Zhou Min's expression contorted in alarm. She hastily shouted, "Stop!"

However, Qian Ye paid no heed to the command.

Unable to simply observe further, Zhou Min moved with lightning speed, intercepting Qian Ye.

Boom!

A formidable force erupted from behind Qian Ye, striking her back with brutal impact. Before she could complete her strike, Qian Ye was sent hurtling off the arena stage. A spray of blood flew from her lips…

"Qian Ye!"

Yi Lian and the others' faces fell in shock as they rushed to Qian Ye's side.

"Qian Ye, are you injured?"

"Cough! Cough!"

Qian Ye let out a dry cough, expelling more blood. She shook her head, her face deathly pale, and replied, "I am unharmed, but…"

A surge of fury immediately ignited within the onlookers. Yi Lian, suppressing her rage, lifted her gaze to confront Zhou Min, who stood poised on the arena stage.

"Elder Zhou Min, do you not believe your actions are excessive? You intervened against a contestant mid-match. Is this what you deem fair conduct?"

At that moment, the crowd regarded Zhou Min with disdain.

They were palpably incensed by Zhou Min's intervention.

The competition would only conclude with a concession! Yet Zhou Min, serving as the judge, had interfered, injuring a participant!

Zhou Min retorted with a chilling tone, "Where mercy can be shown, it should be! Yu Er had already lost; there was no need to continue and end her life…"

"Hahaha!"

Yi Lian erupted in laughter. Flames of indignation blazed in her heart as she shot back, "Lost? I distinctly recall her vowing to tear Qian Ye's very corpse into countless pieces! Elder Zhou Min, is this your interpretation of justice? How can you possibly be fit to serve as a judge?"

She paused before continuing, "Moreover, why did you not intervene when Xiao Yu nearly ended Qian Ye's life? 'Where mercy can be shown, it should be'? Hmph! You should be addressing that to Xiao Yu. She has made countless attempts to harm and kill us over the past year. This time, had Qian Ye not possessed the White Jade Bracelet, she would be the one dead. Would you still offer the same words, 'Where mercy can be shown, it should be,' to Xiao Yu?"

Yi Lian, typically composed and elegant, had unleashed a torrent of words, revealing the depth of her outrage…
