Reborn Heiress: Seeking Revenge-Chapter 625 Shangguan Rou’s Biological Father (3)_1

"What are these things?" Second Young Master Ye exclaimed in shock as countless insects crawled out from the crack, one after another. When they encountered Shangguan You’s Inferno Fire, they were all burned to ashes. The entire space filled with a thick, acrid smell of burning.

"Naturally, they are of the same kind as the esteemed Eldest Young Master Ye," Shangguan You huffed coldly, and the entire space was engulfed by raging flames. Simultaneously, countless beams of light shot towards Eldest Young Master Ye.

"Shangguan You, do you think these things are of any use against me?" Eldest Young Master Ye dodged the beams attacking him and spoke coldly. He desperately wanted to charge forward and strike the crack again with his palm to open it wider. Unfortunately, the beams of light clung to him tightly, following him wherever he went, and mixed within them were even heart-palpitating Electric Shocks.

"Whether they’re useful against you or not doesn’t matter. As long as these things can’t get out, that’s all that matters," Shangguan You declared. With a wave of her hands, a blast of icy energy surged towards the crack. A hundred-meter-thick layer of ice sealed the finger-wide fissure. SIZZLE! SIZZLE! SIZZLE! The sound echoed continuously as the creatures still crawling out were also incinerated.

"Eldest Young Master Ye, this palm strike is my repayment to you!" Shangguan You shouted, her form lunging towards Eldest Young Master Ye. BANG! She struck him hard on the chest. Eldest Young Master Ye stumbled back several steps, his state wretched, then stared at Shangguan You in utter shock. Shangguan You could actually injure him? This is impossible! Impossible!

"Are you surprised that I could injure you?" Shangguan You hovered in mid-air, looking down arrogantly at Eldest Young Master Ye. She couldn’t understand his overweening confidence. What made him think he was invincible, that no one could harm him?

"You have the capital to be arrogant, but you’re not the only formidable person in this world. You are no match for Third Young Master Ye, and likewise, you are no match for me. Therefore, you are destined only to fail," Shangguan You stated coldly. With a wave of her hands, the entire sinking space began to slowly rise. The accumulated water underground started to recede, point by point. The oppressive feeling in their chests gradually disappeared, and the air in the space became more abundant. "Do you wish to activate this plane’s Transmission Array? I’m telling you, as long as I, Shangguan You, am here, it will remain forever dormant beneath the earth’s strata."

Shangguan You sneered as she watched the other space sink at a bizarre speed, deeper and deeper, while the ground beneath them continued to ascend. The secret chamber receded into the distance. Eldest Young Master Ye’s eyes blazed with a cold light; he even felt the urge to tear Shangguan You apart. That location was a thousand meters beneath the earth, and he had already spent countless manpower and financial resources to find it. Now it had sunk even deeper, possibly thousands of meters underground, its position unknown. How many years would it take to find it again and reopen that passage?

"Shangguan You, do you realize what you’ve done? Do you know how much of my painstaking effort, how much of the Young Master’s lifelong work, you have destroyed?" Eldest Young Master Ye’s voice was calm, but beneath that calmness, his entire heart felt twisted.

"So what if it’s destroyed? If you were truly capable, could I have destroyed it? If you hadn’t underestimated your enemy, could I have succeeded like this?" Shangguan You sneered. Destroy Third Young Master Ye’s painstaking effort, if that was his purpose. If she had the choice again, she would do the same.

"Shangguan You, what did you do to me last time?"

"Nothing much. It’s just that you enjoy feigning weakness, don’t you? You enjoy being burned, being electrocuted? You enjoy evoking pity? So, I did my best to help you out: to turn your feigned disabilities into real ones, to make you go from strong to weak, suppressing half of your Inner Strength, turning you into a second-rate cripple. I was merely fulfilling your wish," Shangguan You’s light words caused Eldest Young Master Ye to directly spurt out a mouthful of blood. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Although he tried hard to suppress it, he was truly infuriated by Shangguan You. Last time, he had carelessly fallen for Shangguan You’s trick. He had only wanted the Young Master to see Shangguan You’s true character; how could he have known he would implicate himself as well? Now, he was completely at Shangguan You’s mercy.

"Eldest Young Master Ye, I have another significant gift for you. I hope you’ll like it." Seeing Eldest Young Master Ye spit out blood, Shangguan You’s lips couldn’t help but curve into a smile. A pale blue mist appeared, and a small path materialized in the previously pathless tunnel. The mist transformed into four hand-like shapes, surging out towards the tunnel.

"What else are you planning to do?" Eldest Young Master Ye’s brow furrowed, and he glared coldly at Shangguan You. If he could move right now, he would want nothing more than to eat her flesh and drink her blood.

"Nothing much, just sending you a significant gift." Shangguan You’s body floated in mid-air. Her throne reappeared, and she once again sat down gracefully upon it. "Eat this." Shangguan You waved her hands, and a bottle flew into Second Young Master Ye’s hands. "Just now, Second Young Master Ye shielded me, so this can be considered a gift for him."

"Thank you," Second Young Master Ye took the bottle and said faintly to Shangguan You. He then opened it and swallowed one of the Medicinal Pills inside.

"Eldest Young Master Ye, I wonder if you still remember Lin Mengjie from eighteen years ago?" Shangguan You looked down at Eldest Young Master Ye from her high vantage point, asking coldly.

"Hmph, Shangguan You, do you think I would remember some woman? The Ye Family lacks nothing, especially not beautiful women," Eldest Young Master Ye snorted coldly, trying to regulate his internal breath and suppress the surging qi and blood.

"Is that so? Since you don’t remember her, I’m very curious: why did you target Lin Mengjie? This is my gift to you, to repay you for what you did to my mother and father back then. So, this is my token of gratitude." Shangguan You chuckled softly as two figures, ensnared by water pillars, were sent rolling towards Eldest Young Master Ye.

BANG!

BANG!

With two thuds, the two figures that had been rolled over were kicked away by Eldest Young Master Ye, one to his left and one to his right. THUMP! THUMP! The two figures slammed directly into the wall.

"AH!"

"AH, IT HURTS SO MUCH!"

Two sharp cries rang out. The two figures, originally unconscious, woke up simultaneously. Both spat out a mouthful of blood before scrambling up from the ground.
