Dethroned from the Imperial Throne, Why Are You So Anxious When I Don't Want It Anymore? - Chapter 32

Chapter 32: Aren’t You Even A Little Bit At Fault?

“Heh, what does it have to do with her? You’re putting on quite an act, or have you already forgotten about abandoning Liu Ruyun for wealth and glory? ”

“Liu Ruyun was so good to you, she poured her heart and soul into you, and this is how you repay her! ”

The stall owner cursed at Ye Yu.

Hearing this, Ye Yu finally realized why the cultivators in Frontier City looked at him so strangely. The problem lay here.

“Liu Ruyun told you this? ” Ye Yu stroked his chin and smiled.

“You still have the face to smile! I’ve lived for decades, and I’ve never seen such a despicable man! ” Seeing Ye Yu’s smile, the stall owner instantly became furious.

The stall owner’s voice was loud, and soon many people gathered to watch. When they saw it was Ye Yu, they all pointed and whispered.

Ye Yu didn’t bother explaining, he coldly snorted, and his Golden Core Late Stage cultivation base erupted, sweeping across most of the Trading Fair.

For some people, even explanations are useless. Ye Yu deeply understood this; they would only believe what they wanted to believe.

Most of the people who came to this Trading Fair were Independent Cultivators. Few had high cultivation bases. Under Ye Yu’s Golden Core Late Stage pressure, they all turned pale.

The scene instantly fell silent.

Even the stall owner, who had cursed the most fiercely, was now pale, not daring to speak.

“I’ll ask one last time, are you selling this sword or not? ” Ye Yu looked directly at the stall owner and said calmly.

The stall owner looked at Ye Yu, gritted his teeth, but ultimately lacked the courage to refuse. He sighed and said, “500 Spirit Stones, take it if you want. ”

Hearing this, Ye Yu didn’t waste words. He took out five hundred Spirit Stones and threw them over, then put the sword into his Storage Ring, and turned to leave.

“Heh, Prince Consort Ye is quite imposing. Don’t you think that becoming the Prince Consort of the Great Qin Dynasty allows you to act however you want in Qingzhou? ” A cold laugh came, and the surrounding people looked around.

They saw a woman in a gold-threaded dress looking at them with a cold smile.

It was Feng Qing’er, the Third Princess of Qingzhou Great Qian Dynasty.

“What? Princess Feng, what instructions do you have? ” Ye Yu turned around and looked at Feng Qing’er calmly.

Great Qian and Great Yan were neighbors, and there was a lot of interaction between the two countries. Feng Qing’er was also Liu Ruyun’s close friend.

In the past, when Ye Yu was still pursuing Liu Ruyun, he had often been subjected to Feng Qing’er’s ridicule.

“I wouldn’t say it’s instruction, after all, I’m still afraid that Qin Ruoxian will come to find trouble with me. I’m just simply unhappy with how you treated Ruyun! ” Feng Qing’er sneered.

“Oh? Then, Princess Feng, how did I treat Liu Ruyun? Did I not give her cultivation resources, or did I see her flirting with my Imperial Younger Brother and pretend not to notice? Or did she say she wanted to break the engagement and I didn’t desperately try to keep her? ” Ye Yu smiled faintly.

Although it was just a short sentence, the information it contained was enormous.

Many people around immediately changed their expressions, looked at each other, and sensed something was wrong.

“Heh, you’re twisting the facts. What flirting? Such harsh words! Ruyun and Xiaoxuan are just very innocent friends! ” Feng Qing’er rebuked.

“So, in your eyes, I only get to wear the green hat when I see them sleep together? I hope you are equally tolerant to your future Prince Consort. Don’t just beat him up because he goes to a brothel. You didn’t see him sleeping with the women there, or did you? ” Ye Yu shrugged.

As soon as the words fell, Feng Qing’er’s face turned livid. The matter of the Great Qian Dynasty’s Third Prince Consort had long been known throughout Qingzhou, it was no longer a secret among the empires; rather, it had become a laughingstock among the people.

“Ye Yu, as a man, saying that, don’t you think you’re being petty? Besides, even if Ruyun and Xiaoxuan did something, don’t you bear any blame? If you hadn’t done enough, would Ruyun have done that? It’s ultimately your fault! ” Feng Qing’er said coldly.

The people around heard this and burst into laughter. This woman’s logic was really amazing.

Ye Yu was speechless and didn’t want to say anything more to her. He had to go back and study the sword.

“What? Do you feel ashamed, are you leaving? Quickly return the Autumn Water Sword to Ruyun! ” Feng Qing’er said coldly.

“I’m staying at the inn in the east of the city, come and get it if you dare. ” Ye Yu glanced at Feng Qing’er indifferently, killing intent surging around him.

Feng Qing’er was instantly scared pale, her legs weakened, and she collapsed to the ground.

For this kind of princess raised by the Imperial Family, although she has some cultivation, it’s all achieved through pills, she’s never killed anyone before. Unlike Ye Yu, who had spent those bloody years in the Nine Nether Bl00d Spring. There’s no comparison.

Seeing this, Ye Yu sneered, turned and left.

Feng Qing’er watched Ye Yu’s departing back, gritted her teeth, and shouted, “Ye Yu, you just wait for me! ”

After saying that, she hurriedly fled under the strange gazes of the surrounding people.

Back at the inn, Ye Yu carefully began to study the black sword in front of him. According to his past memories, this black sword was filled with ferocious energy, and its sword Qi was even more intense than the Autumn Water Sword.

But now it only seems like an ordinary sword with some spiritual energy. It must have something to do with the black substance covering the sword.

Upon closer examination, Ye Yu smelled a very faint bloody smell. Immediately, Ye Yu’s expression darkened; this bloody smell was very familiar.

It wasn’t the smell of the Human Race.

“Could it be Demon Bl00d? ” Ye Yu frowned and muttered to himself, then waved his hand, and a Spiritual Seal appeared, sealing the entire room.

Then he flipped his hand, summoned the small cauldron, and placed it above the sword.

The next moment, a buzzing sound erupted, the small cauldron trembled and slowly floated up, and then a beam of light fell.

The black substance on the sword visibly peeled off, revealing a purple sword body.

“It really is Demon Bl00d! ” Ye Yu took a deep breath.

The Demon Race is so powerful because their bl00d, and even Demonic Qi, have an innate suppressive power over Heaven and Earth spiritual energy.

Before the Nascent Soul Stage, when the spiritual energy hasn’t been completely transformed, a Golden Core Late Stage cultivator may not even be the opponent of a Golden Core Initial Stage Demon Race member.

Spiritual Treasures tainted by Demon Bl00d will instantly lose their spirituality.

But this sword was different. Even covered in Demon Bl00d, it could still emit a faint spiritual energy, proving the sword’s extraordinariness.

Then, a sound of unwilling roar seemed to come from within the sword, and then the outer shell of the black sword began to peel off, and a sharp aura emanated from the sword body.

After the Demon Bl00d shell peeled off, two words appeared on the sword: Zi Xiao.

“Zi Xiao Sword? I remember there’s a Zi Xiao Sword Sect in Leizhou. I wonder if it’s related to them. ” Ye Yu mumbled to himself, then stopped thinking and sat cross-legged, operating his spiritual energy and setting his own mark within the Zi Xiao Sword.

Ye Yu didn’t notice a flash of black light on the Zi Xiao Sword.

At the same time, ten thousand miles away, the Zi Xiao Sword Sect fell into chaos.
