Immortal Ice Empress: Path to Vengeance Chapter 560 Master Izaria Negotiates

Chapter 560 Master Izaria Negotiates

"Who?!" The heads of those from the Yin-Yang Sect whipped around to see who had just disturbed them. However, the two Sect Masters had solemn expressions as they could feel that the person that had just arrived was stronger than them.
Soon, a tall, beautiful woman with silky white hair, ocean-blue eyes, large breasts, and wide hips appeared before them. Alongside her was a tall, young, and muscular blonde man with a massive greatsword on his back who was riding a golden-winged wolf.
"What do you old coots think you're doing, ganging up on a little girl like that? Don't you have any shame?" The white-haired woman, who was Master Izaria, questioned in disgust.
The Elder's expressions changed, but they dared not say anything lest they feel the wrath of a Divine Sea Realm expert.
The Female Sect Master of the Yin-Yang Sect stepped forward and introduced herself, "My name is Amora, the Sect Master in charge of the females in my Yin-Yang Sect." Then she pointed to the man next to her, "He is Tobias and is the Sect Master in charge of the males."
"May I ask who this Master is?"
Master Izaria sneered, "Hmph! Wouldn't you like to know?"
Amora's lips twitched, and she thought, 'Yes, I would. That's why I asked.'
Clearing her throat, she asked, "Anyways, why are you stopping us from taking away the brute who tried to kill our Prime Disciple?" She pointed to Aryan, who had just woken up, "Just look at him! He looks like he's about to die any second now! We must take revenge for this slight!"
Master Izaria's lips curled up into a smirk, and she looked at Amora as if she were looking at an idiot.
"Heh! No need to play dumb with me, woman." Master Izaria turned to Aryan, "What revenge? I know it was that little boy who provoked Mira first and almost got himself killed. He did this to himself!"
Although Amora and every other person from the Yin-Yang Sect knew she was right, they didn't back down. "Even if that's the case, the fact remains that this young lady almost killed our Prime Disciple. Thus, we will take her back to the Sect, give her a fair trial, and dish out whatever punishment we feel she deserves!"
Master Izaria and Ryuu almost couldn't believe their ears! This woman… was too shameless! What trial? What punishment? They clearly had no intention of doing any of that!
Ryuu turned to his Master and said, "Master! I think you and this woman could be great friends!"
*Smack!*
Master Izaria smacked the back of Ryuu's head, "Idiot! I'm nothing like this slut who sticks anything that resembles a meat pole in her snatch! My tastes in men are much more refined!"
Ryuu rubbed the back of his head, feeling aggrieved, and in a momentary lapse of judgment, he said, "Is that why you aren't married? Because your tastes are just soooo~ refined?"
Master Izaria's face turned beet red, and she raised her hand to smack him again. Ryuu flinched, preparing himself to get hit, but after a few moments, nothing happened. He turned to look at his Master and was surprised when he saw that she had put her hand down and looked away.
Amora, Tobias, and every else's lips twitched, watching this almost comical scene. Not wanting to stick around any longer, Amora said, "Well, if that's all you have to say, we'll take our leave now." After she said that, they turned around to leave
Master Izaria shook her head of all distracting thoughts and stared deeply into their retreating backs. After a moment, she opened her mouth, and her calm, neutral voice drifted through the air and caressed their ears, "Are you sure you want to make an enemy out of the Battle Maiden Sect?"
Everyone froze. That was certainly the problem with kidnapping Mira like this. It would've been fine if nobody saw them taking her away, but since Master Izaria showed up, the whole situation changed.
Amora and Tobias gritted their teeth as they turned around and glared at Master Izaria.
"Are you really going to meddle in our business?" Tobias' deep voice shook the air. One could see that he was anything but happy right now, so much that even Amora shut up.
Master Izaria smiled amusedly, "Hmm~ I might~ I haven't decided yet. Why? Are you going to do something about it?"
Tobias' eyes narrowed. He stared deeply into Master Izaria's eyes, trying to read her intentions, but all he could see was that she was having fun, which only made him angrier.
"Hmph! I don't believe Sect Master Aelina cares about this fox woman enough to take drastic measures." Tobias said, but even he had a hard time believing his words. Everyone on the Continent seemed to be after Mira right now. Aelina would have to be an utter fool if she couldn't see Mira's value.
Master Izaria smiled as if she had seen through his thoughts but didn't continue talking about the Battle Maiden Sect. Instead, she asked, "Then, how about we play a little game?"
"...What game?" Tobias asked reluctantly. He just wanted to leave and not interact with this woman anymore!
Master Izaria's smile widened, "Let's see who can get back to your Sect faster! Me or you! If you win, I'll let you keep Mira, but if I win, I'll take Mira back while destroying and looting everything! Sounds fun, right? Hahaha!"
"...Is that a threat?" Tobias asked in a low voice.
Master Izaria just smiled and shrugged, "You can take it that way if you want, but I do think it'd be interesting. Well, what do you think? Want to make a bet with me?"
"..."
Tobias' eyes glowered as he got more and more pissed off, but the woman in front of him was too strong to ignore. If a fight were to break out between them right now, he wasn't confident he'd come out on top. However, even if he did, the losses and deaths on his side would be unimaginable.
Plus, killing someone in the Divine Sea Realm isn't easy. These are people who have lived for thousands of years. The number of trump cards and escape measures someone at that age and strength has is innumerable. More than likely, Master Izaria will kill off tens of his Elders, then escape, and he'd have himself a Divine Sea Realm enemy.
Their Sect already wasn't the strongest as they mainly focused on cultivation and pleasure rather than combat prowess. With an enemy like Master Izaria, plus the Battle Maiden Sect, the Yin-Yange Sect stood very little chance of winning.
While he could call on some allies who might be willing to help, Tobias also felt that the other Orthodox Sect Masters have been acting strange lately. Almost like they had all come to an agreement and left him out of it. His spies had informed him that the other Sect Masters were visiting each other more frequently, which only happens if they are planning something.
His intuition told him that if he really asked the other Sects to fight against the Battle Maiden Sect with him, they might disagree.
A pink-haired woman appeared in his mind, the one who gave him the information on Mira's whereabouts.
'Will she help my Sect if we're in trouble?' He immediately shook his head. That woman was too arrogant! How she looked at him was like how a human looks at a monkey; dumb and weak. He didn't trust that woman one bit!
After taking a few moments to weigh the pros and cons in his mind, he ultimately decided to hand Mira over.
'Although Aryan's injuries are bad, they aren't necessarily untreatable. It'll just cost us many valuable resources. However, that's nothing as long as he can return to his peak or even surpass it. In the last thousand years, he's our Sect's greatest hope at winning the Central Continent Competition!'
Tobias wrapped his Qi around Mira and tossed her in Master Izaria's direction. "Fine. If taking her will cause so much trouble, then just take her. It was Aryan's fault for being too weak and losing, anyways. Maybe this loss will teach him a good lesson."
Just as he was about to turn around, his eyes glanced at Mira, but he was surprised that she didn't look happy. Instead, her crimson eyes glowed as they stared at Aryan as if she wanted nothing more than to kill him.
He even heard her mutter, "That bastard's eyes need to be plucked out as punishment for seeing my naked body."
Hearing Mira's words, Master Izaria's expression warped. Tobias saw that things seemed to have taken a turn for the worse, so he quickly wrapped everyone in his Qi and fled the area.
"YOU COWARD! COME BACK RIGHT NOW SO I CAN TEAR THAT LECHER APART!! HOW DARE HE CATCH A LOOK BEFORE MY DISCIPLE!!"
Master Izaria's words echoed throughout the mountain, but Tobias and the others were long gone by then.
