Hearing the voice devoid of any emotion, Ye Ming's mind went blank.
He never expected Yetogawa Sakuya to appear at the door at this moment. And to have overheard his previous words.
This misunderstanding had escalated.
Before he came to East Island Country, he and Yetogawa Sakuya were purely in a cooperative relationship. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it mutual exploitation.
Therefore, it was not wrong to say that Yetogawa Sakuya was a pawn of his in East Island Country.
Then, a series of events occurred, leading to a deep exchange between the two, after which their relationship naturally underwent a drastic change.
The current Ye Ming had long regarded her as his woman.
However, could Yetogawa Sakuya maintain her sanity at this moment?
The answer was clearly no.
Especially for her, who had just fallen in love, Ye Ming's words "pawn" were like two sharp thorns, piercing her heart fiercely.
At that very instant, a figure flashed in her mind!
Gu Taiyi!
The man who had betrayed her mother.
Under the dual impact, her emotions were on the verge of collapse.
Her figure also disappeared from the moon pavilion.
In the room, Nangong Qianyu also noticed Yetogawa Sakuya's departure immediately. And Ye Ming beside her was still in a daze.
"Bastard! What are you still dazing for? Hurry up and chase her!"
Seeing this, Nangong Qianyu kicked Ye Ming out of the hot spring in a hurry.
Playfulness aside!
Now that Yetogawa Sakuya had misunderstood, this was no laughing matter.
"Ah! I... Sakuya!"
After taking a kick, Ye Ming finally woke up completely.
Without any time to think, he quickly put on a bathrobe, his figure flashed, and he disappeared like a stream of light.
Nangong Qianyu, who was left behind, couldn't help but worry.
As they say, women understand women best.
She knew very well that a woman with Yetogawa Sakuya's temperament could easily go to extremes in some matters. And once it reached a point of no return, things would become troublesome.
"If you don't bring Sister Sakuya back safely, I'm done with you!" Nangong Qianyu said through gritted teeth, looking in the direction of the window.
...
After leaving the moon pavilion, Ye Ming rapidly expanded his senses. In less than a second, his perception enveloped the entire city.
"Found her!"
In the sky, about two thousand meters away from him, he found a woman wearing a blood-red gauze dress.
It was Yetogawa Sakuya.
At this moment, her expression was as cold as frost, and a chilling malevolence emanated from her.
In less than ten seconds, Ye Ming arrived in front of her.
"Sakuya! It's not that..."
"Don't come any closer!"
Before he could finish speaking, Yetogawa Sakuya's blood-red eyes stared at him intently, and a hint of killing intent was hidden in the depths of her pupils.
In her hand, countless malevolent energies converged wildly, forming a blood-red saber pointed at Ye Ming, and she said coldly, "If you dare to come closer, I will kill you!"
Seeing this situation, Ye Ming dared not make any rash moves.
Because at this moment, he was horrified to discover that the Asura Power within Yetogawa Sakuya was gradually devouring her sanity, turning her into a killing machine.
With the interference of the Asura Power, even if Ye Ming used methods like time stop or spatial confinement, he might not be able to guarantee control over Yetogawa Sakuya.
Therefore, at this moment, he could only try to stabilize her emotions.
"As expected! None of you men are good!" Yetogawa Sakuya's expression under the veil was somewhat ferocious, and she said, "Gu Taiyi was like this, and so are you!"
"A pawn! So, my mother's fate and mine are the same, we are just pawns! Hahaha!"
Yetogawa Sakuya was gradually becoming somewhat possessed.
Hearing her words, Ye Ming's expression also sank.
From her words, it seemed that what he had said earlier was not the direct cause of Yetogawa Sakuya's emotional breakdown.
The fundamental reason was that his words had made Yetogawa Sakuya associate it with her mother's fate.
A pawn!
So, Yetogawa Kyoko back then was just a pawn in Gu Taiyi's hands.
No wonder Yetogawa Sakuya was on the verge of a mental breakdown in such a short time when Ye Ming mentioned that he had treated her as a pawn.
"Sakuya! Look at me!"
Understanding this, Ye Ming made up his mind and took a step forward.
He knew very well that Yetogawa Sakuya couldn't listen to anything he said right now. To help her out of the influence of the Asura Power, extreme measures had to be taken.
"Stop! Don't come closer!"
Seeing him step closer step by step, Yetogawa Sakuya waved the blood-red saber in her hand and instinctively began to retreat.
What was she afraid of?
"Sakuya! Don't worry! With me here, no one can hurt you!" Ye Ming looked at the retreating woman, a gentle smile on his face, and opened his arms:
"Come!"
"No! You're coming closer, I'll kill you! I will really kill you!"
Yetogawa Sakuya continued to retreat, her hands gripping the saber hilt, her body swaying.
"Good girl! Come!"
Ye Ming quickened his pace, flashed, and appeared before her.
"Ah! Get lost! Kill... you... Get lost!" Kuai Shu Ge
Yetogawa Sakuya wildly swung the blood-red saber, confusion in her eyes.
At this moment, the tip of her saber had already pressed against Ye Ming's chest.
"Sakuya! Who am I?"
Ye Ming suddenly took a step forward, and bright red blood flowed down the tip of the saber. Despite this, he did not even frown.
A gentle smile remained on his face.
"No! Stop... Stop!"
Yetogawa Sakuya looked at the stinging fresh blood and hurriedly retreated. But no matter how she retreated, Ye Ming's body moved towards her.
No!
More accurately, it was moving along the blade of her saber.
"It's okay! Don't cry! If you cry, I will be very heartbroken!" Ye Ming slowly reached out and gently wiped the corners of her eyes.
Even Yetogawa Sakuya herself didn't realize that her eyes had become moist at some point.
"Ah! Why... Why! I should hate you. But... but my heart aches so much! Wuwuwu!"
Yetogawa Sakuya released the blood-red saber condensed from malevolent energy, which dissipated into a sky full of light and vanished into the air.
Her entire body, however, collapsed weakly into Ye Ming's arms. Looking at the blood constantly flowing out, the tears in her eyes could not be stopped.
At this moment, the malevolence emanating from her body also slowly dissipated. The control of the Asura Power over her had finally failed.
"I'm sorry! It's my fault!"
Ye Ming gently stroked the little head in his arms, looking at the sobbing beauty, the pain in his heart far greater than any physical pain.
"I promise you, this is the last time you will cry."
