Because the face exposed from under the mask is not a gray-haired, decrepit old man, but an extremely charming-looking middle-aged woman!
Her skin is as white as snow, and her eyebrows are as dark as a painting. Except for a few fine wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, no trace of time can be seen at all.
"How could it be a woman?"
"It's really the most ridiculous thing in the world!"
"It turns out that the master of the Phantom Sect, who makes all warriors fearful, is actually a woman?"
Whether it was warriors from various forces or assassins from the Phantom Sect, they were all shocked by this subversive result.
Normally, Ye Mei speaks in a low and hoarse voice, as powerful as thunder.
Moreover, his acting style is ruthless and decisive, but there is no trace of the indecisiveness that a woman should have?
I never thought that under the skull mask that frightens everyone, there is such a beautiful face that confuses all living beings!
Especially the leaders of the five top forces, including Mr. Bai, felt even more blushing.
"It's an irony, it's such a huge irony. A female prostitute actually needs the top five of us in Haoshan Mountain to join forces to defeat her!"
"How can we be embarrassed by the fact that a female prostitute's personal strength is superior to all of us?"
In the distance, Ye Mei is still flying backwards in the air.
Her long hair was dancing wildly, and her beautiful face was full of sadness.
"Senior Ye!"
Just as she was about to hit the stone pillar behind her, a familiar voice came.
The next moment, her body was caught by two soft hands.
Under the influence of inertia, it continued to retreat a certain distance, and when it approached the stone pillar, it finally stopped.
"Wuhen?"
Ye Mei turned around and looked at the person who helped her relieve her strength.
It is none other than the contemporary saint of the Phantom Sect with no trace of blood!
"Senior Ye, it turns out you..."
Holding Ye Mei's back with both hands, Xue Wuhen's face was extremely complicated and he hesitated to speak.
"Wuhen, I've kept it secret from you for so long, and you finally discovered it today!"
Ye Mei smiled bitterly, her voice still hoarse and low.
Xue Wuhen frowned, "Your voice..."
"Ah, I'm so used to changing my voice that I've almost forgotten my original voice!"
Only then did Ye Mei react, and the hoarse tone disappeared, replaced by an extremely gentle female voice.
"What on earth is going on?" Xue Wuhen continued to ask.
"With how smart you are, you probably can figure out the reason without me having to explain it, right?" Ye Mei asked with a wry smile.
Xue Wuhen's breath was stagnant.
Ye Mei was right. In fact, she had thought of it a long time ago. She just wanted to hear Ye Mei herself tell the reason.
This is a world dominated by men!
Once a woman reaches a high position, it is generally difficult to convince others!
Since Ye Mei is born as a daughter, in order to establish her prestige and deter the arrogant senior officials of the Phantom Sect, she will definitely try her best to hide her identity.
But she never expected that even she, a person raised by Ye Mei, didn't know about it.
One can imagine how unhappy she felt at this moment.
Then, she seemed to remember something again and asked: "Is this the reason why you helped Ye Chen ascend to the position of sect leader despite all the opposition?"
In order to get rid of the poison in her body, Ye Chen did not hesitate to break into the Phantom Gate headquarters alone.
With Ye Chen's cultivation at that time, even if he had used the supreme secret skill in the Phantom Book, his cultivation level was not very high. If Ye Mei was willing, she could ignore all of this and crush Ye Chen directly with her crushing strength.
Chen killed him.
But Ye Mei ignored everyone's doubts and forced Ye Chen to become the leader of the sect.
For this reason, not only had she been puzzled, but Ye Chen had also asked him many times.
But every time, Ye Mei either deliberately changed the topic or refused to answer directly.
Now it seems that the reason is self-evident!
Ye Mei was originally a girl!
During his reign, if this was discovered by the senior management of Phantom Sect, I am afraid that the entire Phantom Sect would fall into civil strife.
Therefore, the appearance of Ye Chen, a person who can perform the highest secret skills of the Phantom Book, gave her the perfect opportunity to abdicate in favor of others.
As long as a new sect leader comes to power and there are enough reasons to frighten the top management of the Phantom Sect, even if her identity as a woman is exposed one day, it will not affect the overall situation.
However……
"Wuhen, now that it has happened, I won't hide it from you anymore!"
Ye Mei reached out and touched Xue Wuhen's face, and said dotingly: "In addition to the fact that I was originally a daughter, I forced Ye Chen to become the leader of the sect, there was another more important reason!
"
"What's the reason?" Xue Wuhen was startled.
"Because, I am your mother!" Ye Mei said every word.
A light word fell in Xue Wuhen's ears, but it was like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, instantly making her physically and mentally tremble.
She froze there, her mind going blank.
Ye Mei, the previous master of the Phantom Sect who raised her up and trained her to become a contemporary saint of the Phantom Sect, is actually his biological mother?
how so?
Her mind went over and over again, but she couldn't react to this shocking truth for a long time.
"Wuhen, I know you can't accept it for a while!"
Ye Mei laughed at herself and continued: "Actually, I also plan to hide it for the rest of my life, but now that the matter is at this point, whether I can survive or not is still unknown. I just hope that before I die, I can hear you call me 'mother'.
Even if my body is shattered in the next moment, I will die without regrets!"
As she spoke, she shed tears and looked at Xue Wuhen with eyes full of endless tenderness and love.
But Xue Wuhen remained frozen there, without moving or saying anything, as if he was petrified.
Only the face that somewhat resembled Ye Mei had various expressions appearing in turn, including surprise, confusion, anger...
I don't know how long it took, but a deep voice finally came from her mouth, "Is this why you pushed Ye Chen to be the leader of the sect?"
"Yes!"
Ye Mei nodded, "You are my daughter. What I hope to see most is that you can find the happiness of your life!"
"That Ye Chen was extremely weak in cultivation at the beginning, but for you, he risked a narrow escape and forced himself into the Phantom Gate headquarters. This shows how deep his feelings are for you!"
"So, even if he didn't display the supreme secret skill of the Phantom Book at that time, I would not kill him!"
Ye Mei sighed, stared at Xue Wuhen with burning eyes, and said in a pleading tone: "I have hidden it from you for so long, and it was forced by the situation. Can you forgive mother for what she did?"
"forgive?"
Xue Wuhen laughed at himself, "I was raised by you. What I have achieved today is all thanks to you. Even if you are not my biological mother, I have always treated you as the closest person to me. What do I have?"
Are you not qualified to forgive you?"
After a pause, she asked: "I just want to know who my father is!"
"enough!"
Before Ye Mei could answer, the Lord of Wanxiang Mountain, who had recovered from the shock, suddenly shouted loudly, "We are not interested in knowing the hidden secrets between your mother and daughter!"
He waved his hand and said impatiently: "We give you one last chance now, either hand over Ye Chen and the treasures he got from the emperor's tomb, or we will send your mother and daughter to heaven, and then wipe out your entire Phantom Gate headquarters!
