189: Chapter 189 Look at me

Forget it.

Who cares if he's sensible or not.

Yuan Chen didn't tolerate others being arrogant in front of him.

His Qi surged.

He decided to use his frequently employed "Turning Stone into Silver" on him first.

Let's have you rest well for a while.

Jia Bao swallowed hard.

Feeling the danger from Yuan Chen, his body instinctively retreated, and he watched Yuan Chen vigilantly.

"What are you doing?"

Yuan Chen paid him no mind.

Jia Bao grabbed his communication device and started shouting, "Grandma, Grandma!"

A woman's voice came from the device.

"Bao'er, what's… bang, bang, bang!"

"Bao'er, tell me about whatever it is later."

She hung up directly without waiting for Jia Bao to ask for help.

Leaving behind a dumbfounded Jia Bao.

He shook the communication device in his hand, looking like a child who had lost his backing.

Even knowing the other side couldn't hear him, he still kept shouting, "Grandma, Grandma!"

Yuan Chen scoffed.

"Calling for Grandma is useless. Calling for Grandpa might actually give you a chance."

Jia Bao was slightly stunned, then overjoyed.

"Grandpa, Bao'er was wrong, don't hit Bao'er."

He pouted, looking at Yuan Chen with a pitiful expression.

Yuan Chen was stunned by the way he was addressed.

Of course, he felt more disgusted than anything.

Damn it, 'Bao'er' my ass.

He shouted, "I originally intended to spare your life for a moment, but now it seems I can't let you live."

Jia Bao's eyes widened.

"Are you sick in the head? Didn't you say calling you Grandpa would give me a chance?"

After cursing, he remembered his situation, and his expression softened again.

"Grandpa, please spare Bao'er's life, okay?"

"Die!"

Yuan Chen couldn't take it anymore.

White, silvery light gathered in his hand.

This time, he was determined to seal this thing up tight.

Boom!

After charging up, his palm struck rapidly toward Jia Bao.

The Void Realm fluctuated.

"Young Master Yuan Chen, give this old man some Face… Holy crap, what is this thing?"

Elder Xue Qi appeared between Yuan Chen and Jia Bao.

He was the expert protecting Xue Chai.

However, Jia Bao was also a Disciple of one of The Four Great Demon Sects, and the Sect Master had previously asked him to tag along and observe him.

Although he wasn't very satisfied overall, watching him get killed just like that didn't seem appropriate.

It wouldn't be easy to answer to the other side's grandmother either.

But just as he appeared and got closer, that strange energy in Yuan Chen's hand became even more intense.

His hair stood on end.

Although he didn't know what was happening, his sixth sense told him absolutely not to touch it.

He retreated immediately right after jumping out, though he didn't forget to snatch Jia Bao away.

"Are you intending to interfere in the business between the two of us?"

Retracting his hand and standing still, Yuan Chen spoke calmly.

If he forced the issue, Jia Bao wouldn't be able to escape.

But since someone had jumped out, he had to clarify the situation.

He was still a reasonable person.

If the other party insisted on protecting Jia Bao, then he would just have to finish them both off.

After all, he was just a three-tribulation Loose Devil.

It didn't really matter.

Of course, when out and about, people mostly rely on the Sect behind them.

Generally, when encountering experts, no one would make things difficult.

"This old man is from the Xue Family of the Demon Sect. I hope Young Master will grant me a little Face."

Standing still, Elder Xue Qi caught his breath and spoke while pretending to be calm and composed.

"Haha, Little Sister Xue Chai, so you had such an expert following you! Quickly, help me kill him."

Jia Bao, still unable to read the situation, pointed at Yuan Chen and clamored, no longer looking as pathetic as before.

Before Yuan Chen could speak, Elder Xue Qi's expression darkened.

"Young Master Jia, I can only try my best to keep you safe. Wouldn't it be better not to cause more trouble?"

"What do you mean by 'cause more trouble'?"

Jia Bao was so angry he jumped up and down.

"I am your future son-in-law. Little Sister Xue Chai is going to marry me and be my wife in the future. What's wrong with giving you an order?"

"You dog of a servant, you've got some nerve!"

He then turned and looked at Xue Chai with a wronged expression.

"Little Sister Xue Chai, look at him…"

Xue Chai sighed and rubbed her forehead.

When her father first asked her to come, she felt it was a waste of time.

As it turned out, her father valued Jia Bao's talent and insisted she come and interact with him.

And the result?

He was even more ridiculous than the rumors suggested.

This kind of creature.

If her father insisted on her marrying into the family, she would find a chance to run away from home.

But she couldn't tell Jia Bao that now.

The more you explained to this thing, the more irritable he became.

He was stubborn as a mule.

Explaining was useless.

Moreover, it wasn't good to offend the Honglou Demon Sect.

For no other reason than that his grandmother was truly strong.

The number one expert among The Four Great Demon Sects!

She sighed and turned her head away.

"Brother, let's not make things difficult for Elder Xue Qi."

"Wait, this guy is your Xue Family's son-in-law? Is your Xue Family that indiscriminate?"

Yuan Chen raised an eyebrow, unable to stop himself from asking.

Given Jia Bao's situation, any decent family would avoid him like the plague, right?

"Exactly, exactly. Look at my son-in-law."

Liu Shangchui seized the opportunity to flatter Yuan Chen, but no one paid him any mind.

"It was just a thought from before; nothing is confirmed. Young Master, please don't take everything at Face value."

Perhaps feeling a bit embarrassed, Elder Xue Qi couldn't help but retort.

"Oh, how novel. A 'thought'? Who had this thought? Isn't this just nonsense? Anyway, if it were a woman from my Sect, she'd rather marry a dog than this thing!"

Yuan Chen looked amazed.

Liu Shangchui chimed in, "Exactly, exactly, same here."

Yuan Chen swept a faint glance at him from the corner of his eye.

"Yuan Chen, that's enough. Before, I heard you were like me, and I quite liked you. If you keep talking, I won't like you anymore."

Jia Bao shouted angrily, looking at Yuan Chen with resentment.

Yuan Chen's body shuddered.

Stop talking nonsense!

Elder Xue Qi's Face turned black as coal.

At this moment, he also felt that the Sect Master's thinking was a bit problematic.

No matter how bad off the Xue Family was, they didn't need to find a son-in-law like this, right?

Xue Chai was even more resentful—who could deny that?

But it didn't show on her Face; she always maintained a calm and reserved appearance.

"Our Sect didn't know the situation beforehand!"

After some hesitation, Elder Xue Qi defended his Sect even at the risk of offending Jia Bao.

Besides, Jia Bao might not even understand what he was saying.

"How bold, what do you mean? Little Sister Xue Chai, look at him~"

Elder Xue Qi didn't speak; he had underestimated Jia Bao's intelligence.

"Hahaha, I knew it. It makes sense if you didn't know beforehand."

Yuan Chen laughed knowingly, not caring at all about Jia Bao's feelings.

Of course, there was no need to care.

"My son-in-law is right."

Yuan Chen changed the subject.

"Young Miss Xue is outstanding in appearance, and looking at her cultivation, her talent is quite good. Marrying this thing would be a waste of a heavenly treasure."

Elder Xue Qi couldn't help but agree.

It made sense.

But he didn't show it on his Face; he still had to leave some Face for the Little Demon King.

Not only was the grandmother powerful, but it wouldn't be long before the Little Demon King grew up and could easily defeat him.

Yuan Chen continued, "What a pity!"

"What do you think of me? Why don't you marry me instead?"

Hmm, Yuan Chen's conditions were actually quite good in all aspects.

"Huh?"

At first, Elder Xue Qi actually considered it seriously.

After realizing what had been said, he looked at Yuan Chen with a confused expression.

Xue Chai and Lin Yu, who were watching the show, were also slightly stunned.

On the flying boat, Great Elder Wu Xuan muttered to herself, "No wonder my husband was so easy to talk to today. So this was his goal all along."
