Chapter 310: Chief Elect’s Requirements

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

League Leader Yao Qingyun, Elder Feng, Elder Yun, and a few other elders were at the League Leader Pavilion in the Qingyun League. Standing opposite them was Yao Yue. Tears were trailing down Yao Yue’s eyes, yet she did not say a word.

Yao Qingyun knew his daughter well and immediately understood that something must have happened. Since she was born, Yao Yue had only cried once. That was when her mother was killed by someone from the Emperor Faction. Even when she fell down when she was learning to walk, she had never cried. From this, it was clear that only something extremely serious could make her cry.

“What happened? Did the assassination fail?”

“Yao Yue, if it failed, it failed. The target is a True Energy Realm fighter. Being able to escape is a good enough outcome.”

As the elders were guessing what happened, Yao Yue spoke, her eyes tearing up again, “To protect me, Ye Mo lured Huang Shihu away.”

“What? He lured Huang Shihu away?” Disbelief appeared on everyone’s faces.

“I failed my assassination. After exchanging several moves with Huang Shihu, I was defeated. Just as he was about to force himself on me, Ye Mo ambushed him and left him seriously injured. Then, Ye Mo fled with me...” Yao Yue started telling them everything that had happened.

“Even if that Huang Shihu has been seriously injured, Ye Mo is still far from his match. I don’t think he will survive that,” an elder said with a sigh.

Everyone frowned as they heard what the elder said. Things were really looking bad for Ye Mo.

Yao Yue gave his father a deep gaze and spoke, clearly blaming him, “Father, why had you sent him to help me with that mission? If he hadn’t accepted that mission, he wouldn’t have died.”

“Girl, I sent him because I was afraid that you might fail. Although that Huang Shihu is a pervert, he is still a cautious person. With Ye Mo’s help, you had a higher chance of success.” Yao Qingyun felt helpless when he saw the fury on his daughter’s face.

“If Ye Mo dies, what am I supposed to tell Chuchu, who is cultivating at the Heavenly Fiend World?” sighed Yun Tianxie as he shook his head.

“What is there to explain? Am I not here?” Ye Mo said as he walked in the room with a wide smile on his face and a huge hammer resting on his shoulder.

Everyone froze where they stood. Even Yao Qingyun, who was a Spirit Devour Realm genius, could not hide the shock from his face. As for Yao Yue, she was at first shocked before the shock on her face was replaced by joy.

“Ye Mo, you are still alive?” Yao Yue cried out in shock. The sorrow in her heart was completely replaced with curiosity.

“Yeah. I got lucky! Senior Sister Yao Yue, how are you? Are you okay?” Ye Mo started asking about Yao Yue’s injuries instead.

“I... I’m fine. I only need some rest,” Yao Yue said with her head lowered. She no longer dared to look into Ye Mo’s eyes.

“How did you escape Huang Shihu, Ye Mo?” This was something everyone was curious about.

Even Yao Yue would have a hard time escaping the pursuit of a True Energy Realm fighter. Ye Mo tossed the Bloodlust Meteor Hammer onto the floor. When it landed, the cloth wrapped around it opened, revealing the sinister weapon.

“That Huang Shihu got unlucky. After his injury, his strength dropped greatly. I managed to kill him with an ambush after a bitter battle.”

Everyone was dumbstruck. Apart from Yao Yue, everyone’s brows twitched. Ambush? A True Energy Realm would never be killed so easily with a mere ambush.

Since Ye Mo had returned with the Bloodlust Meteor Hammer, it proved that Huang Shihu had indeed died. However, they were very curious as to how Huang Shihu had been killed. An ambush was quite a far fetched reason for a True Energy Realm fighter to lose against at Ye Mo’s level, but since Ye Mo was clearly intending to hide it, they did not bother asking.

“Good. You are indeed a young elite. With the death of Huang Shihu, yet another hidden danger of the kingdom is gone,” Yao Qingyun said with a laugh, snapping everyone out from the collective silence.

“League leader, the elders promised to give me a surprise after the completion of this mission. I have a request and I hope that it can be fulfilled. I can forfeit the promised reward for this.” Killing a True Energy Realm fighter was extremely difficult. Therefore, the surprise they would give him would definitely be something valuable.

“Oh? You have a request? Tell me about it. What is it that you want so badly?” Yao Qingyun asked with a calm smile.

“I beg the league leader to stop sending Senior Sister Yao Yue on assassination missions,” Ye Mo said with his hands clasped after sending a glance at Yao Yue.

“Oh?” Yao Qingyun called out in astonishment. He had never expected that this would be Ye Mo’s request.

Ye Mo ignored Yao Qingyun’s astonishment and continued speaking. “This mission was way too dangerous. You only have one daughter. Could you really bear to see your daughter being held prisoner if she had failed the mission?”

Yao Qingyun was first stunned before he shook his head with a helpless smile. “You would actually put forth such a request for this girl. In truth, all this was out of her own request. Since she saw her mother’s death at the hands of someone of the Emperor Faction, she requested that I train her into a remarkable assassin so she could avenge her mother. Of course, I do not wish to see her continue down this path. But you know my daughter as well. She is extremely stubborn.”

When Ye Mo heard this, he turned around to look at her. She had her head lowered as she remained in silence.

“Senior Sister Yao Yue, I am back. Do you remember what I told you?” Ye Mo asked.

“This is a path I have chosen for myself!” Yao Yue raised her head, her face turned frosty and ethereal once more.

“Since it’s a path, you can choose a new path to walk. If you insist on continuing to be an assassin, fine. But you have to include me in all your missions. Otherwise, I won’t allow you to go on any missions. I am now equipped with sufficient strength to stop you now,” Ye Mo said with a grin.

Yao Yue turned her head to the other way, looking quite beautiful even when she was angry.

“By the way, the league leader told me that you are eligible to compete for the Chief Elect position. I hope you can give me the position instead,” Ye Mo said as he thought of this.

“You can have it,” Yao Yue said as she tossed a token over to him. She continued speaking, “This token was given to me by Lord Xuan Ji herself. The holder of this token can compete for the Chief Elect position, and since your strength is no weaker than me, Xuan Ji won’t have any reasons to reject you.”

She had no interest in the League War so she did not mind passing the token to Ye Mo instead.

“This really works?” Ye Mo was somewhat doubtful.

“This is merely a type of qualification. Any Elite League member can challenge a league member with this qualification to compete for the Chief Elect position. If he defeats that member, the token signifying the qualification would belong to him. This is a rule of the Qingyun League, a form of competition within the league. Over the years, this qualification had evolved to the point where only the strongest league members could have this token in their possession.”

As Yao Yue patiently explained, Ye Mo gained a better understanding of the Elite League member that used to lead them.
