Chapter 2449: Kill but Not Bury

have due recompense.Lu Tianqi was overjoyed. No matter what, Ye Bufan was going to die anyway.Xiahou Ao and two others arrived at Wang Xue'ning's villa. Qu Lingfeng kicked the gate open with his leg...Many people in the audience wore strange expressions.

Let me break it down for you:* **花如玉笑** (Huā rú yù xiào): "Her smile was like jade" - describing the beauty of her expression.* **的花枝亂顫** (de hua zhi luàn chàn): "The branches trembled with excitement" - emphasizing her happiness and nervousness.* **：“小哥”** ("Xiao ge"): "Little brother" - a term of endearment. * **“你還真是個有意思的男人，我喜歡！”** (“Ni hai shi ge you yì si de nan ren, wo xi huan!”): “You’re truly an interesting man, I like you!” - expressing her attraction and amusement.

A flush crept across Leng Qingqiu's cheeks, but the tension in her shoulders eased.

"You shameless thing, you even thought of this kind of trick!"

At this point, Yin Li had completely fallen into a state of madness, his movements becoming increasingly out of control. The onlookers felt extremely awkward, and some women even averted their eyes.

Ye Bufan strode forward and kicked him squarely in the round, plump buttocks.

Yin Li had completely lost his normal will, with not a shred of resistance left. He directly fell from the stage below.

And just as he landed, Ye Bufan flicked his finger again, sending a black pill into his mouth.

After taking the medicine, he immediately regained consciousness and realized how embarrassing the situation was.

This guy doesn't understand what happened at all, he just sees himself falling off the stage and being completely naked.

Even with a thick skin, his face flushed hot. He hurriedly took out a set of clothes from his storage ring and put them on before instantly vanishing.

Ye Bufan looked back at the dumbfounded referee: "Shouldn't you announce that I won"

"Oh!"

The referee only just came back to his senses. He had officiated so many matches, but he'd never seen someone win in this way before.

But no matter what, the person ended up standing on the platform and winning. He had no other choice but to announce Ye Bufan's victory.

"I disagree!"

Bai Li Xingkong on the viewing platform suddenly slammed his fist on the table, "To win using such underhanded tactics! I propose we strip him of his competition eligibility!"

"Well, Your Highness, have you perhaps forgotten something"

Xi Men Feng let out a cold smile. "I remember yesterday you said yourself that once you're on the stage, it's a battlefield. Any means, be it poison or anything else, is permissible as long as it can be used. How come it doesn't work now"

"Could it be that you don't want to see Ye Bufan win, or is it because he's from Tianluo Prefecture, or are there other reasons"

"I..."

Bai Li Xingkong was instantly scolded, his face reddening and he was speechless.

The hardest thing to refute in this world is what you say yourself. And just now, Ximen Feng's words were the rules he announced before the competition yesterday. Now that he himself stands up to oppose them, it's indeed hard to explain.

Hua Si Jin said, "I agree with Elder Xi Men's point of view. Since they won, we shouldn't care about what means they used. This is the rule of our competition."

"I agree!"

Even Jue Ran spoke this time, though his expression remained unchanged, he made his stance clear.

Before, they had turned a blind eye to Bai Li Xing Kong's childish tricks, but now they naturally wouldn't take his side.

Three of the Five Elders agreed, Li Miaozhen's opinion no longer mattered. Bai Li Xingkong could only let out a cold snort and stopped speaking.

On the stage, Ye Bufan smiled faintly, then walked back to his seat.

The remaining four matches were completed very quickly, and the final match also ended after half an hour.

The other matches did not have any unexpected events. Mu Xiaoyun defeated her opponent, and Feng Wuhun from the Divine Wind Valley also won.

After the competition, Bai Li Xing, following routine procedure, read out the names of the winners. Then he said, “The winning disciples go on stage to draw lots and prepare for tomorrow’s match.”

There were a total of twenty-five disciples. Disciple number thirteen received a bye and automatically advanced to the next round of the competition.

After he finished speaking, he waved his hand, and twenty-five small orbs that had been prepared in advance flew into the air.

The disciples who won on stage all secretly prayed, hoping to draw number thirteen and advance directly.

Ye Bufan didn't have that kind of thought. He was very clear about Baili Xingkong's ruthlessness. This old man couldn't scheme against him today, so he naturally wouldn't let it go.

He will definitely go all out to eliminate himself. Unless something unexpected happens, his next opponent should be Nangong Du.

Of course, this is what he wanted. He deliberately clashed with Nangong Du in public before to achieve this effect.

Jiang Fangzhou's revenge must be avenged, and the best place is in the ring.

He reached out and grabbed a glowing orb in his hand. Upon opening it, he saw a black No. 5.

He then glanced at Nangong Du in the distance, and sure enough, he was holding a white No. 5 in his hand.

Ye Bufan's mouth curled into a sneer. This old geezer still made his move, but the final result was bound to be disappointing.

The draw is complete, Bai Li Xingkong begins to announce the results.

"Ye Bufan from Tianluo Prefecture, against Nangong Du from Tianwu Prefecture…"

"Tiān Máng Zhōu Jué Qíng Gǔ Wàng Chén Dùi Zhàn Tiān Qióng Zhōu Mù Xiǎo Yùn..." Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

"Heavenly Saint State, Bai Li Hongjun's thirteenth boat is vacant…"

As expected, this draw was entirely under Bai Li Xing Kong's control. Not only did Ye Bu Fan meet with Nan Gong Du, but Bai Li Hong Jun also received a bye.

But the old man was still very cunning. Besides seeking revenge on Ximen Feng, he gave Mu Xiaoyun to Wucheng. The rest of the Nine Star Sect disciples who drew lots mostly got weaker opponents, so there weren't any strong-on-strong matchups.

Therefore, after the drawing was complete, Hua Si-jin and others had no objections.

"Alright, that's it for today. We'll continue the competition at dawn tomorrow."

After Bai Li Xing Kong finished speaking, he turned and left, his expression gloomy as he departed from the school grounds.

Ye Bufan and the crowd were just about to leave when Nangong Du walked over again, his face full of malice: "Kid, you better prepare a coffin for tomorrow!"

"There's no need for that," Ye Bufan said after a moment. "I've never been one to bury the dead, you best prepare yourself!"

"Well done, I'll see how long you can keep up that tough act!"

Jiang Fangzhou cursed: "This bastard, what's so arrogant about him!"

"Brother Ye, do you still have that medicine Give some to that little punk tomorrow too, let him humiliate himself in public, and then get rid of him!"

"This thing won't work for him!"

Ye Bufan said, "This kind of medicine only works if it's applied to the body. Yin Li was too careless and overconfident in his invisibility skills, he had no defense at all, which is why he got caught."

But Nangong Du had seen it with his own eyes today, he would inevitably have some precautions. As long as a true qi shield was formed, the medicinal powder could be blocked outside, and it would be completely ineffective.

Damn, this bastard got a bargain!

Thinking of the humiliation he had suffered before, Jiang Fangzhou gnashed his teeth in hatred.

Ye Bufan patted his shoulder: "Don't worry, he owes us a lot tomorrow. I'll get it all back for you."

Thereafter, everyone else also left the Royal Schoolyard and returned to the station.

In the study of Shenwu Prince's Mansion, Bai Li Xingkong looked at the middle-aged man opposite him with a gloomy expression.

"What did you say We just made five hundred million high-grade spirit stones from yesterday's match"

The middle-aged man opposite him was named Bai Li Cheng Ye, a distant relative of the royal family, responsible for all the gambling dens in the entire imperial city.

"Yes, Your Highness, that's all there is!"

Facing the pressure of a Mahayana peak, Bai Li Chengye was extremely nervous, with beads of sweat already appearing on his forehead.

"How is that possible According to the previous budget, we were supposed to get at least 1 billion yuan, weren't we"

What about the rest of the money Did you just pocket itst of laughter, then his expression became incredibly ferocious. "Can you blame me for this It's all your fault and your good son's. If anyone deserves the blame, it's you."He had been defeated by Ye...
