258: Chapter 258 King of the Western Frontier

A moment later.

Everyone came out as well.

Ye Qing looked and his eyes lit up; boy, this was quite good. The aesthetic of the clothing stores in the Modu Barrier was indeed different from other places.

They were even glamorous.

Among the clothes they bought, there were even high-slit qipaos, which were exactly the type Ye Qing liked.

"Not bad, not bad."

Ye Qing said after looking at the first batch.

"You probably didn't just buy this one outfit. Go on, next batch. Same requirement: the slowest one to change gets overtime."

Ye Qing said, then looked at Yin Luoqing. "You were the slowest last time. If you're the slowest again this time, hehe."

Yin Luoqing: "..." Aaaah!

A horror movie!

Her heart trembled, and she immediately prepared to head toward the room.

But from behind, Liu Lianmeng grabbed her.

"Sister Liu, what's wrong?"

Yin Luoqing asked, looking at Liu Lianmeng in confusion.

Then, Liu Lianmeng revealed a mysterious smile. "Little Sister Yin, there's no rush."

With that one sentence, the others understood what Liu Lianmeng meant.

Liu Lianmeng was going to sacrifice herself just to take the other down!

Boy, what a noble sacrifice!

"Good job, Sister Liu!"

"Hold her back like that!"

"We're leaving first!"

...

Voices rang out as Jing Yao, Zhu Yin, and the others ran off quickly.

Jing Yue and Su Yirui, who were standing nearby, were stunned. Was this threat really that powerful?

Meanwhile, Liu Fang had returned to her room early.

She didn't quite understand these kinds of activities for young people.

Inside the villa, the atmosphere was harmonious and joyful.

At the same time.

To the west, inside the Kunlun Barrier.

As a powerful Barrier in the west.

The Kunlun Barrier was guarded by the King of the Western Frontier.

At this moment, inside the military headquarters.

The King of the Western Frontier was standing in front of a Young Woman.

The Young Woman's skin was as white as snow, her face stunningly beautiful. Dressed in a white gown, she looked like a peerless beauty from the north, standing independent and aloof from the world!

She was indescribably beautiful!

However, her face currently wore a huffy expression.

She looked at the King of the Western Frontier with a look of grievance.

"My dear niece, won't you consider what I said? This is a great opportunity. Rumor has it that after contracting with Ye Qing, one can transform from a Wasted Artifact Spirit into a powerful artifact spirit," the King of the Western Frontier said.

The Young Woman looked at the King of the Western Frontier. "See, you said it yourself—it's just a rumor. How can that be trusted? Besides, I've only heard of this person. Yes, rumors say he's very young and powerful, but so what? I haven't even met him once. Not just me, Second Uncle, I bet you haven't met him either."

"How can I decide like this? And I even doubt whether he really can turn a Wasted Artifact Spirit into a powerful one."

"I feel like you're all just listening to hearsay and don't really know what the situation is."

...

As she spoke, the King of the Western Frontier felt helpless.

Boy, this girl really was sharp-tongued.

But she was right; he really hadn't met Ye Qing once. Sending his own niece away like this was indeed inappropriate.

Moreover, she was acting like this now.

"Alright, alright. Everyone knows about Ye Qing's ability. You know Jing Yao; she underwent an Ancestral Return and became a powerful artifact spirit after contracting with Ye Qing."

"Now Jing Yue is also by Ye Qing's side. It seems she hasn't contracted yet, but it should be soon. Besides, who knows how many people Ye Qing can Contract with?"

"Isn't your Second Uncle just trying to find a good future for you?"

...

After a few words, the grievance on the Young Woman's face dissipated quite a bit. She began to consider it seriously; what her Second Uncle said was indeed true.

Rumors said Ye Qing was very handsome and strong.

If she could Contract with him...

As she thought, her mind began to wander further.

A blush appeared on her face.

Then, she suddenly snapped out of it!

She immediately rebuked herself in her heart!

She hadn't even met him once; how could she just give herself away!

No, no, what was she thinking? How did her thoughts get so deep!

Annoyed with herself, she said, "Second Uncle, I'll wait until I see Ye Qing to talk about it. Let's not speak of it for now."

"No more talk, no more talk."

The King of the Western Frontier: "..."

You girl, why are you so stubborn!

Then the King of the Western Frontier thought about it. That was true; playing matchmaker like this didn't seem like the proper behavior for an elder.

"Then let's leave it at that. When there's a chance, I'll call Ye Qing over, or I'll take you there. It's fine as long as you see him with your own eyes, right? However, let me say this upfront: if Ye Qing really can't Contract anymore later because his slots are full, don't come crying to me," the King of the Western Frontier said.

Hearing this, the Young Woman waved her hand. "I won't, I won't."

"Alright, you go back first."

As the King of the Western Frontier spoke, the Young Woman left.

A moment later, the King of the Western Frontier called his secretary.

"What is it, King of the Western Frontier?"

"Hasn't Ye Qing been in the Modu Barrier for a while now?"

"Yes."

"How is it? What has he been doing in the Modu Barrier? He hasn't been given some official post by that fellow Old Jing and kept in Modu, has he?"

The King of the Western Frontier asked, his face showing concern.

"As far as I know, that hasn't happened," the secretary said, comforting the worried King. "King of the Western Frontier, you know Ye Qing's capabilities. Besides, Ye Qing never joined the military, so even King Fenghai doesn't have the authority to directly order him."

"Right now, he's just invited Ye Qing to the Modu Barrier and is maintaining a good connection with him through his two nieces."

"I feel that Ye Qing's current strength might not be much lower than King Fenghai's."

The secretary said; this was the feeling he had for a while.

At those words, the King of the Western Frontier looked at the secretary. One couldn't just say things like that. Although Ye Qing was impressive, he was still a youngster. Could he really be compared to Old Jing just after entering the Marquis Realm?

"It's fine to say this in front of me, but don't talk nonsense outside."

"Understood." Hearing this, the secretary realized he might have misspoke, and sweat beads unconsciously appeared on his forehead.

"However, I also heard that Ye Qing has caused quite a stir since going to the Modu Barrier."

Oh?

This sentence piqued the King of the Western Frontier's interest.

"Tell me about it."

The secretary then described how Ye Qing performed Alchemy, with the medicinal fragrance covering the entire Modu Barrier and Auspicious Clouds appearing when the pills were completed.

"Ye Qing is actually such a senior Alchemist?" The King of the Western Frontier couldn't hold back anymore. He looked outside, wishing he could call his eldest niece back. This was big news.

Ye Qing is also a senior Alchemist, hey!

This is a major deal!
