《Conquer the World》Chapter 11: Memory of The Past (2)
Advertisement
Ye Yingyuan already lost in anger! No sound was able to stop him. Even Ye Canghai wanted to stop the battle because of that.
“Why are you so uneasy?” Ye Shui asked.
“I worried that something unwanted might happen because of this.” Ye Canghai explained. He had never seen his son angry over something. Ye Yingyuan was a filial son and he never acted like this before.
At the same time, Ye Yingyuan charged with his sword radiating a lot of energy. The energy then focused on the edge of the sword and Ye Yingyuan changed the strike from swinging to stabbing!
“You will pay for those words!” Ye Yingyuan then thrusted it. Li Ling who saw all of that was stunned for the moment.
“How?” she muttered. Not only Ye Yingyuan had broken through to the level 5 but he also charged at her with unimaginable speed that surpassed her expectation.
‘I...I only planned to make him leave his defense so that I can launch an attack on him with that technique but now I can’t.’
Li Ling regretted her decision to provoked Ye Yingyuan. But from the situation, she realized that was already too late!
The crowd who watched the scene now started to talk about it.
“She really dare to say that? I hope that she get what deserve for her action.” Someone commented the situation in the stage.
“I think she did that to make Ye Yingyuan expose his flaws first and take advantage of that. Now she got that but I still think that she really cross the line. She should not say such things to do that!”
That was the time that Li Ling knew that she really messed things up. “I...” before that, she prepared some defensive measures to stop Ye Yingyuan’s sword.
But to her surprise, the defensive measures that also included several minor formation and stances were broken with the thrust!
For the first time she felt that death was closer and trying to take her life away. But Ye Yingyuan stooped his sword’s tip right at the forehead of Li Ling, stared at he with cold eyes.
“Do you think I will end this just like that?” Ye Yingyuan then withdrew his sword and surprisingly moved closer to Li Ling.
Li Ling who had lost her defense now was like a sheep in mercy of the wolf! She could not defeat him at first exchange and she would not be able to do so in the future!
“What? What are you going to do?” somehow, she felt that this was not supposed to happen but reality was cruel to her. What happened after that was going to be remembered as the most embarrassing moment for the people in the Xuan City and for Li Lin herself.
Ye Yingyuan rubbed his hands, likely to do something with that hands. “Do you know that naughty child should be educated? My mother often tell me this and every time I do something that inappropiate, she will do that.”
Actually, even Li Ling instinctly knew what he was talking about. Her face turned pale and her body started to showed her unwillingness.

Even her father Li Dian could not help her. ‘Sorry.’ His thought was already set and this was also a good lesson to his daughter.
“We should stop this match!” Ye Canghai afraid that Li Dian would enrage if his daughter was hurt but Li dian’s replied made his opinion about him increased to a new whole level.
“I think that right now is the good opportunity to teach her something. Actually, I'm the one who is at fault her because I often pamper her without cared about her view...” Li Dian started to speak.
He took a short break before continued, “Because of that, she think that everything that she had seen was solely for her use but today, let your son teach her in my stead!”
This declaration made Ye Shui to talk and involved. “Are you really sure about this? You are a mayor of this Xuan City and your daughter also famous but why are you doing all of this?”
Ye Shui even asked this. Li Dian then turned his head to see Ye Shui and then opened his mouth. “Even if my reputation will be affected by this, I rather choose to make her into a fine lady, someone who will respect other and respected by other. To achieve that, I need to make her understand that every action has a consequences!”
When most people card for reputation, fame, wealth and even their face, Li Dian did not care too much about that. Besides, to implement the moral of the future generation was more important than mere reputation and face!
“I...somehow understand. Then you will not raise your hands right?” joking, Ye Canghai asked in a teasing tone.
“I hope I will not raise my hands against my own daughter, that will be the best.”
Ye Yingyuan moved to the side and arrived at Li Ling’s back. He then started to do that in the front of so many people.
Basically, he spanked her right in the butt!
“This is what I received every time I do something that mother said will make me become a bad person. Now you should try it too maybe you will change your behaviour.” Said Ye Yingyuan while kept spanking Li Ling without care.
As for the victim, Li Ling, at first she screamed because this boy touched her without minding everyone present. Then that scream became sobbing because she was crying.
“Father, please save me!” even Li Ling pleaded to his father. But his father just feigned ignorance, as if what happened to was not his business.
This made some people astonished and surprised. “Why the mayor did not stop this?” asked a women. She asked because this scene was embarrassing and not suitable to watch.
“Don’t know but the mayor must have something in his mind?” another person speculated. Everything they did was only around that and watched as Li Ling getting spanked by Ye Yingyuan.
Actually, there was also a few people who protest against this as well. “Why anyone did not act!?”

“Are you really an idiot!? Look how mayor Li Dian reacted to this! He basically do nothing. It means that he allowed Young Master Ye Yingyuan to spanked her. She deserves it for insulting his parents.”
With their brains, everyone soon realized that this sight would be unforgettable by the citizen. Indirectly, they felt that the mayor was setting an example. He did not care about reputation but towards his child, even if she were his own daughter when she was in the wrong, he would punish her and correct her.
“Please, stop!” even her tears overflowed and she kept pleading to anyone but no one would help her. Ye Yingyuan increased the power in his hands and that only made Li Ling cried even more!
“No! I, I will not do that again. I will not do that again.” Her sound was alluring and soul catching that in the heart of everyone that present, they also felt pity.
That was when Li Dian cam forward and standing in front of Ye Yingyuan and Li Ling. Even Ye Canghai and Ye Shui followed behind him.
“Stop. She got what she deserved and I advise you to cease your action.” Li Dian spoke to Ye Yingyuan. “Come here! You won already so stop.” Ye Canghai smiled bitterly after seeing all of that.
Ye Yingyuan retreated with his eyes locked on Li Ling. He then walked towards his father. Ye Canghai only patted Ye Yingyuan’s head before whispering something.
“Hear me, you must take responsibilities for today’s matter.” Ye Canghai had made a deal with Li Dian. Ye Yingyuan did not know about this so he asked in a curious gaze.
“What responsibilities? It’s clear that she was in the wrong for saying that! As if I care for that.” That was Ye Yingyuan thought but then he asked again because of something.
“Father, am I disappont you today?” confused and clueless, Ye Yingyuan felt restless.
But Ye Canghai only answered, “No, I’m very proud of you! But you probably need to faced against mother again today.” He wanted to say that matter with his son but he just kept it himself.
“What!? I, I don’t want to get spanked again.” Ye Yinyuan panicked. At the other side, Li Ling was ran to her fathher’s embrace. She was spoiled since four years old and it was because Li Dian never had a son since married.
She throwed her tantrum right at him. “Why Father doesn’t help me!? Why are everyone just watching!? Why, why, why!?”
Li Ling was bullied by Ye Yingyuan the first time they met and it was at the most famous event!
“Reflect on yourself and apologized to him.” Li Dian ordered her to do that instead. Seeing that even her father acted like that, Li Ling cold not do anything else.
At that time, she felt that was the day where the turning point for Li Ling started. For the first time she felt humiliated and helpless to do anything against that.
She stared at the one who caused all of this, directly into the deepest part in her mind! While the culprit, Ye Yingyuan left the stage with his father.
The crowd finally dispersed and most of them returned with something that could not be forgotten.
Since that day onwards, wherever Li Lin met Ye Yingyuan they would argue with each other.
“I have come to repay the debt you gave me!” proclaimed Li Ling. Ye Yingyuan just stared at her now because he did not want to communicate with someone who hurt the most fragile part that exist in himself.
Li Ling shouted and even using her saber to attack him but when she just a few more steps to reach him, she hit something! But the most frustrating thing was, he was not the same person that matched her!
Every time she attacked, Ye Yingyuan just dodged to the side. ‘What a waste of time.’ Ye Yingyuan clearly did not put her in his eyes. He just used her as a measure of his power and abilities.
Left, Right, Front, Back. Every direction Ye Yingyuan felt those strike, he just deliberately dodged it like a leaf being blown by the wind.
Seeing this only made Li Ling depressed and could not even build her self-confidence anymore!
“Are you done?” Ye Yingyuan looked at her. Not only he easily evaded the strike Li Lin released but he also do it without putting much effort. She could see that Ye Yingyuan was getting stronger at faster pace than her.
“I....” out of option, Li Ling ran away from the scene. Everyday and everytime they met, a confrontation would be unavoidable.
Li Ling could not even make a scratch on his body so she started to using more dangerous approach!
She brought a mix of several poison that have effect to paralyze the entire body upon contact. This poison was concocted by herself.
‘After that day, I can’t even stabilize my heart! This time, I must succeed!’
She walked around the city for an entire day. When the sun started to set, she finally found Ye Yingyuan sitting cross legged above the pond!
The energy from his body resonated with the energy that scattered in the nearby area. She was surprised to see this. Why?
The first reason was because that meditation state that Ye Yingyuan currently in was a rare in her generation. This state was often called ‘Nature Syncronization’ and this was the second stage in meditation state!
This made her wanted to interrupt him right now!
‘I don’t care if you could reach such state in this environment because this will cause you to lose your current state.’ Thought Li Ling.
Actually, Ye Yingyuan just ignored everything because he started to comprehending something that could boosted his power! Even if Li Ling wanted to executed the plan or not, that was another matter to discuss.
