Chapter 288: Getting Angry for the Sake of a Beauty
The audience exclaimed in surprise. Ling Chuxi also felt a shudder in her heart. Sure enough, Baili Han must have already experienced Heavenly Lightning Striking The Body and had reached the realm of Great Fulfilment. Such a seemingly indifferent move is definitely unachievable by merely raising one’s Battle Qi. Only qualitative changes brought about by heavenly lightning could help one achieve this feat.
E Shulan was also greatly shocked. Originally, she had thought that as long as she put her best foot forward and displayed her strength explosively, she could at least deal with Baili Han for a while. However, she never thought that he would actually decimate her strongest attack so easily.
Under great shock, E Shulan hurriedly drew her sword in a fl.u.s.tered manner and pierced it forward in the direction of Baili Han’s face.
Baili Han sneered as he reached out a finger. With a light flick, he flicked away E Shulan’s sword.
All E Shulan felt was that the area between her thumb and her index finger went numb. Then, she could no longer hold onto her onto her sword and it fell out of her hand.
“I admit defeat…” said E Shulan, feeling terrified. She spoke up almost instantly, but before she could even finish speaking, she was interrupted by Baili Han in the most humiliating way.
In just a split moment, and the sword which was originally hanging from Baili Han’s waist was already in his hand. The sword did not leave its sheath and as directly swung towards E Shulan to issue a slap to her.
And the place where the sheathed sword was directed at was E Shulan’s face!
E Shulan was sent flying like a kite with a broken string. Her body fell to the ground at the border of the fighting ring, but she did not fall off the fighting ring stage just yet.
When everyone watched intently, they saw with their own eyes how E Shulan’s originally beautiful face was swelling up at the speed of light. And, it looked extremely shocking.
This was Baili Han’s move? Slapping E Shulan in the face with a sheathed sword?! E Shulan was smacked in the face by Baili Han as such without him bothering about her reputation as a Deity’s Servant Girl at all. Furthermore, it happened after E Shulan had admitted defeat. This was clearly revenge! Baili Han’s vengeance was exacted too obviously.
The bald dean who was watching from beside the ring once again started to pull at his already scarce strands of hair. “You reckless rebel, why don’t you worry about yourself at all?! You are so blatantly offending the Deity Temple! Argh! I’m so angry! Oh! Oh, my hair…”
“You! How dare you?! I had already admitted defeat! Yet you still actually attacked me!” yelled E Shulan angrily as she lay sprawled at the border of the fighting ring and looked at Baili Han with hatred in her eyes. Baili Han merely looked back at her with a cold expression.
“Oh? Sorry. I didn’t manage to hold back,” said Baili Han calmly as he tilted his head slightly to the side and kept his eyes on E Shulan. Anyone could easily tell from his tone that it was totally insincere. But, wait! The audience suddenly recalled something. Why was this sentence so familiar? Were these not the words that E Shulan had said to Lan Xinyu when she had lashed out so viciously at her just a few days ago?
Tsk, tsk, tsk. So that was it! The last time, it was a scenario where the hero saved the beauty, now it was one where the hero exacted revenge for the beauty! Everyone looked at Baili Han in acknowledgement. Many people admired him in their hearts. Now, this was a man! Just take a look at him. When his woman was bullied, regardless of who the other party was, he insisted on exacting revenge for her.
The bald dean looked at the scene before him with his eyes popped open and mouth hanging agape. Suddenly, he helplessly smiled as he touched the bald spot on his head. An understanding gaze appeared in the dean’s eyes as he squinted and muttered, “So, he got angry for a beauty. Very good. Now that, that is truly my son. Look at that deep display of affection. He will definitely be able to win the beauty over.” The teacher who was standing beside the dean overheard his words and secretly turned away speechlessly. This dean really left one speechless. Just now, he was practically jumping in anger and now…
Beside the fighting ring, Ling Chuxi smiled and poked Lan Xinyu who was staring ahead absent-mindedly and said in a low voice, “Tsk, tsk, tsk. Sorry, I didn’t manage to hold back. Look at Baili Han, he has also learned how to be bad. He’s lying without blus.h.i.+ng now.”
Lan Xinyu kept staring at Baili Han who was still in the fighting ring with a calm expression on his face. At this moment, her heart was beating very fast, thudding in her chest very quickly. Something was breaking through the grounds of her heart and growing quietly…
