"Acting foolish despite great wisdom, the epitome of a gentleman!"
Ye Chen's light handshake, dragonfly-touch style, made Xu Qingling once again wildly appreciate him. Xu Qingling's impression of Ye Chen was getting better and better.
"Why are you blushing? Could you have fallen for me?" Ye Chen was a bit startled.
"Scram!" Xu Qingling said.
"Could it be that you've taken a fancy to me and, in this foreign land, you want to start a long-distance romance with me?" Ye Chen said with an unscrupulous smile.
"Have you never seen a woman in your life?" Xu Qingling said.
"..."
"Why are you still not leaving?" Ye Chen looked at Xu Qingling and frowned.
"Why should I leave?" Xu Qingling was somewhat puzzled.
"Just get out of here quickly." Ye Chen urged.
"How absurd!" Xu Qingling rolled her eyes.
"I have a formidable enemy coming, you might die if you don't leave!" Ye Chen looked at Xu Qingling seriously.
"Stop kidding!" Xu Qingling gave Ye Chen a disdainful look.
"Buzz!"
Just then, a chilling light suddenly appeared, tearing through the void, and stabbed towards Xu Qingling's neck.
"Ah!" Xu Qingling's scalp went numb, finally understanding why Ye Chen had been telling her to "leave."
The chilling light was terrifyingly powerful, shredding the space apart, its murderous aura filling Xu Qingling with despair, causing the pores on her body to burst open, feeling an intense threat of death.
"Am I going to die just like this?"
Xu Qingling felt her life was too tragic; having lived well into her thirties without ever having held a man's hand, a single chilling light was about to send her from a complete arrival to a complete departure?
The chilling light appeared suddenly, striking like lightning.
Xu Qingling was terrified out of her wits, yet the chilling light abruptly stopped, hovering three inches in front of her.
"Ding!"
In her shock, Xu Qingling felt the air stagnate as Ye Chen silently reached out his arm and caught the chilling light between his fingers.
"What, what is this?" Xu Qingling's voice trembled.
"Who knows what this is, but it's clearly a knockoff, a counterfeit of Huaxia's artifact crafting methods!" Ye Chen scoffed.
The chilling light clutched between Ye Chen's fingers was a willow-leaf-shaped weapon, glowing eerily white, chilling to the bone.
"I have no mortal enemies, and we're in Egypt, so who would want to kill me?" Xu Qingling said, still terrified.
"Didn't I tell you, it's related to me!" Ye Chen said.
"What, it's related to you!" Xu Qingling glared.
"It's because you can't help liking me." Ye Chen switched to chatty mode.
"Like hell I like you!" Xu Qingling was nearly wronged to death.
"So, from now on, whatever you do, you need to be discreet and tactful, okay?" Ye Chen played with the willow-leaf weapon in his hand, smiling enigmatically at Xu Qingling.
"Can't you speak properly!" Xu Qingling's face darkened.
"A major threat is approaching, you should leave now." Ye Chen sensed a powerful presence and hurried Xu Qingling to leave the area.
"You!" Xu Qingling was taken aback, slightly out of sorts.
Xu Qingling's innocent look made Ye Chen wonder how someone with such low intelligence could ever become a general?
"You've just arrived in Luoshi City, and you're already upsetting women, is that fair to Naimei Xue?" A cold voice came from the void, and a beautiful figure emerged out of nowhere.
"This is the island nation's strongest!" The woman stepped out of the void, and Xu Qingling recognized her identity.
"But, why would she want to kill me?"
"There's nothing between Ye Chen and me!"
"Even if there was something between Ye Chen and me, who does she think she is to interfere with the matters of a general like me?"
"Wait, who is Naimei Xue?"
Xu Qingling forgot about the life-and-death crisis a moment ago, and a hundred thousand whys popped into her mind as she gossiped about the relationship between Ye Chen and the female ninja.
"Are you Naimei Xue's cousin?" Ye Chen looked at the woman who had just arrived.
This woman was sent from the island nation to be stationed in Luoshi City as the strongest.
The woman was a top assassin king, a Nine Dragons Supreme Level super elite ninja, just a step away from becoming an invincible ultimate ninja!
"Naimei Xue, did she tell you about my existence too?" the woman asked, frowning slightly.
"Exactly!" Ye Chen's eyes lighted up, bursting with dazzling brilliance.
"You are the most outstanding, the most powerful, the most perfect descendant of the Qianyue Clan. Your martial arts talent is incredibly shocking. You are only five years older than Naimei Xue but had already advanced to Nine Dragons Supreme Level two years ago!" Ye Chen stared at this legendary woman from the island nation. "If I'm not mistaken, your name is Qianyue Bing!"
Naimei Xue had told Ye Chen about her family's situation. Naimei Xue's family was considered top-tier in the island nation, but her mother's family was much more powerful, being one of the three strongest families in the island nation, the Qianyue Clan!
Qianyue Bing was Naimei Xue's cousin and also a legendary female ninja from the island nation.
"It seems you know a lot!" Qianyue Bing coldly sneered. "By using such despicable schemes to take Naimei Xue's innocence, I am here to kill you today!"
"Kill me?" Ye Chen laughed inexplicably.
"Naimei Xue's talent is immense, her future achievements boundless, but she was misled by your deceit and fell into confusion. Only by killing you can she be freed from the abyss!" Qianyue Bing coldly looked at Ye Chen, her body emanating a terrifying murderous intent, an extreme chill in the air.
"..."
The eruption of Qianyue Bing's murderous intent made Ye Chen's expression solemn.
He wasn't frightened by Qianyue Bing's strength, but he had an ominous premonition in his heart.
"Xu Qingling, I have some private matters to discuss with her. You should leave first," Ye Chen said to Xu Qingling.
Xu Qingling, who had been eager to learn more about their relationship, suddenly looked disappointed when Ye Chen spoke.
"..."
Yun Xianghan, Naimei Xue, Fang Ruolan—the three women and Ye Chen parted ways in the cave residence and then all went silent.
The majestic dragon head wanted Yun Xianghan to advance to a Land Immortal, so he took her for special training, and she is still in secret cultivation.
Fang Ruolan followed her master back to Miaojiang, a land of barbarians. The Miaojiang Saint Master is also an Immortal from another world, so she is isolated from the world every day.
With Yun Xianghan and Fang Ruolan unreachable, their silence is understandable.
However, Naimei Xue was from a prominent family, and her disappearance after returning to the island nation had long raised suspicions in Ye Chen.
Now, with Qianyue Bing's arrival filled with murderous intent, unrest stirred in Ye Chen, a troubling feeling blooming as he thought about getting closer to his wife's cousin.
But with someone else present, it wasn't convenient to do anything, so Ye Chen wanted to send Xu Qingling away.
"..."
Xu Qingling looked at Ye Chen with a certain wistful expression, absolutely not wanting to leave.
Since the arrival of this ultimate power from the island nation, she revealed some mysterious puzzles, sparking an unusual interest in the typically gossip-averse Xu Qingling.
"Get going already, it's getting dark. If you don't leave now, your mom is going to call you to sleep!" Ye Chen urged Xu Qingling.
"Ye Chen, is your girlfriend a woman from the island nation?" Xu Qingling, not moving, suddenly asked Ye Chen.
"Whether my girlfriend is from the island nation or not, what does that have to do with you?" Ye Chen replied impatiently.
"I just want to know, and I won't leave unless you tell me!" Xu Qingling said.
"Alright, I have dozens of women. Which one are you asking about?" Ye Chen said seriously.
"..." Xu Qingling was poisoned by that comment.
Ye Chen, this young chap, had dozens of wives? Xu Qingling felt like she was getting old.
