Scrapping a persons power would make him suffer more than just killing him. If he hadnt nearly caused Ye Wu Chen to cripple his own power, then Mu Ru Yue wouldnt have been this ruthless.

I wont consume it! Ye Qiu glared viciously at Mu Ru Yue.

He had gotten used to others looking at him with respect. It would be unimaginable for him to live his life as a trash

You really dont want to? Mu Ru Yue sniggered coldly. I remember that your disciples talent is not bad and you dote on him completely

Ye Qiu was shocked, and he paled. His disciple hadnt helped him when he was in trouble and even now chose to hide at the side; however, Fu Lin wasnt just his disciplehe was also his illegitimate son, his only son.

This girl, using Fu Lin to threaten him

You are such a demonic girl! Arent you scared of retribution? Ye Qiu shrieked crazily; his body was shaking slightly.

Retribution? Mu Ru Yue looked at Ye Qiu. With coldness in her eyes, she continued, Ye Qiu, if you provoked me alone, then perhaps I wouldnt have resorted to doing this. However, Wu Chen suffered severe injuries and almost crippled his power because of you. If I were to receive retribution for avenging him, then I am willing to accept it. Since you are not willing to consume the pill by yourself, then

A layer of frost covered the young girls face. Just as she wanted to continue, Ye Qiu interrupted her with resolution in his tone, I will consume it!

He didnt have any other choice now

After accepting the pill, Ye Qiu closed his eyes and consumed it. The pill instantly liquefied after entering his mouth, making it impossible for him to spit it out.

Ive already consumed it, leave me now!

In order to say just that one line, Ye Qiu gritted his teeth and used almost all of his strength.

Mu Ru Yues brows were slightly raised as she said, You didnt wait for me to finish what I wanted to say. If you didnt want to consume it, I wouldnt have forced you and would have just taken your life away. But since you have made such a choice, you wont be able to die even if you want to now. Ye Qiu, you nearly caused my husband to cripple his power. I will let you have a taste of that.

Ye Qiu didnt wish to cripple Ye Wu Chens power, but he was the indirect reason why it almost happened. If it wasnt for Ye Wu Chens power being beyond his, she would have probably seen only his corpse when she left the pill refining room

That man was the reverse scale1 of her heart. Nobody was allowed to touch him!

Master, lets go. Mu Ru Yue shrugged her shoulders and no longer looked at Ye Qiu who collapsed to the floor. From this moment on, he would no longer be an existence among the Mundane Stage Alchemists and Xiantian experts.

Wu Yu looked at Mu Ru Yue and chuckled.

This little fellow could be counted on to have great survival skills. Since this continent worked in a way where the strong was respected, if she had let Ye Qiu off, then with his viciousness, he definitely wouldnt have done the same. Thus, the best move was to cripple his power and suppress him.

It would be much more painful for Ye Qiu to become a trash than to simply be killed off

Ye Qiu focused on Mu Ru Yues leaving figure. He clenched his fists tightly, a trace of hatred flashing in his heart. But when he looked with hatred at Mu Ru Yue, an intense pain arose in his mind.

That pain was literally worse than death.

This girl was really vicious for making him unable to hate her when he desperately loathed her

The current Ye Qiu didnt think in the slightest that Mu Ru Yue wouldnt have treated him in such a fashion if he hadnt sought trouble and fought with Ye Wu Chen, hurting him severely

He just reaped what he sowed. He shouldnt blame anyone for that

1. A dragon has a reverse scale on their body that they will protect with their life. Even the nicest of dragons would go mad with anger when its touched. Basically, to touch it is the worst thing you could possibly do. ED Argos
