195: Chapter 195 What Does He Know?
She had already felt that Yuan Chen was up to no good.
Now, with those words from Yuan Chen, Master Qing Yu felt even more that something was amiss.
No matter how she listened, it felt strange.
But seeing Monk Lu Da, who had been beaten until his head was bleeding, she still felt her heart soften.
Sighing helplessly, she said, "Since that is the case, then I shall defer to you, Young Master."
"I only hope that you will not make things difficult for me, Young Master."
Yuan Chen said with dissatisfaction, "Sigh~, what kind of person do you take me, Yuan Chen, for?"
"Look at my face, do I look like a bad Dragon?"
As he spoke, he thrust his Dragon face right in front of Master Qing Yu.
Master Qing Yu was stunned on the spot.
Putting aside whether it was polite for you to lean in like that, I can't even tell what your face looks like, you Dragon!
Don't you know that all Dragons look about the same to me?
However, the image of Yuan Chen before he transformed into his Dragon form appeared in her mind.
He was actually quite good-looking.
He also looked approachable.
"It was my overthinking, Master."
"Then, Young Master, can you let him go now?"
Yuan Chen snatched Monk Lu Da from the hands of Liu Shangchui and tossed him onto the Flying Boat.
"I only spared his life; as for letting him leave, that depends on his future behavior."
Master Qing Yu frowned slightly, feeling somewhat displeased.
She hadn't expected Yuan Chen to play such mind games.
However, thinking about it, Yuan Chen indeed had never said he would let him leave. If she were to blame anyone, it was herself for not thinking it through carefully.
Shaking her head, she figured that saving his life was enough for now.
"What about you? Come here!"
After resolving that, only Xue Chai was left.
Elder Xue Qi's heart skipped a beat; it had come to this after all.
He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan—why hadn't the people from the Sect arrived yet?
Xue Chai remained silent, looking at Elder Xue Qi.
A few drops of cold sweat fell from Elder Xue Qi's forehead.
He quickly fiddled with his communication device in secret.
After a long while, he revealed a smile that looked worse than crying.
"Young Miss, since Young Master Yuan has extended an invitation, why don't you go up and get to know him first?"
Xue Chai: "..."
She looked at her bodyguard gloomily.
She had been hoping to see him show off his skills, but this was the result? This was it?
Elder Xue Qi was also somewhat embarrassed.
Putting aside Yuan Chen's identity, and whether or not they should become enemies, just based on the fight between the two earlier, his heart had been pounding while watching from the sidelines.
He had sadly discovered that he couldn't defeat either of them!
It was embarrassing to even say he was a third-stage Loose Devil.
Currently, no one from his clan had arrived.
Even if he resisted, the final result would just be getting beaten up by Yuan Chen and then dragged back like a dead dog, just like Monk Lu Da.
The Young Miss still wouldn't be able to escape.
It was better to just go over voluntarily.
Anyway, Yuan Chen only requested that she take care of his wife for three months.
With him following, no accidents should happen.
Once the clansmen arrived, they could decide whether to fight or befriend him later.
"Young Miss, I see that Young Master Yuan has no ill intentions; just treat it as making a friend!"
He whispered to persuade Xue Chai.
Xue Chai took a deep breath.
From Elder Xue Qi's gaze, she could read the words, 'We can't win, so we should just admit defeat when it's time to.'
She walked gracefully to Yuan Chen and said with poise, "I have troubled you these past few days, Young Master!"
Since the decision had been made, she would accept it calmly.
Yuan Chen smiled warmly, "It is of no concern."
"Since things have been cleared up, everyone, please board the Flying Boat."
"I have other matters to resolve on the other side."
He wondered how Elder Hei Yan was doing with his task.
"Shangchui, go and fetch Jia Bao as well."
Liu Shangchui shouted like a lackey, "Alright!"
Before long, he came running back.
Yuan Chen took out two Immortal-Binding Ropes and hung Monk Lu Da and Jia Bao from the bottom of the Flying Boat.
He greeted everyone, "Get on the bed... I mean, the boat!"
Seeing the strange looks from the others, he quickly corrected himself.
Master Qing Yu felt a moment of panic.
Perhaps, possibly, it was likely just a simple slip of the tongue.
Worried, she followed behind Yuan Chen onto the Flying Boat.
"Wait, brother, my Flying Boat is full of women; it is not very appropriate for a grown man like you to come up."
Elder Xue Qi had been following silently at the back, but before he could get on, he was stopped by Yuan Chen.
He immediately became anxious.
That wouldn't do.
How could he rest easy if the Young Miss went up alone?
His eyes swept over, and he pointed at Liu Shangchui, who was grinning and watching the show from the bow of the boat, and shouted, "What about him? Isn't he a man? Why is he allowed to go up?"
Liu Shangchui curled his lips, "I am Yuan Chen's father-in-law, I am not the same as you."
Yuan Chen tapped his head, "Look at me, I completely forgot. Shangchui, come down. Sorry for the trouble, you'll have to fly on your own!"
Liu Shangchui's mouth hung open.
Hey, I am your father-in-law!
Glancing at Yuan Chen's smiling eyes, he silently stepped off the Flying Boat.
As he passed Elder Xue Qi, he gritted his teeth, "I thank you so much!"
Elder Xue Qi was dumbfounded.
Was my goal to pull Liu Shangchui down? My goal was to get on the boat.
In his anxiety, he had lost his reason.
Looking at Yuan Chen, he asked, "What about you? Aren't you a man? It wouldn't be appropriate for you to be up there with a group of women, would it?"
Yuan Chen rolled his eyes, "Are you sick?"
This is my boat, can't I get on my own boat?
Besides, everyone will be on the same side later; there's nothing to mind.
His gaze swept over Wang Ying.
Well, this... although she still had charm, forget it.
No matter what, he couldn't become the same kind of person as Liu Shangchui.
It would be beneath him!
He set sail and headed toward the Honglou Sect.
Elder Xue Qi sighed.
His gaze lingered on Liu Shangchui for a few seconds, and his mood wasn't quite as bad.
A Flying Sword appeared under his feet, and he chased after the Flying Boat.
"Senior, give me a lift, please give me a lift!"
Liu Shangchui was slow and shouted anxiously from behind.
Elder Xue Qi couldn't even be bothered to lift his eyelids.
That's none of my business.
Seeing that he was about to be left behind, Liu Shangchui gritted his teeth.
He burst forth with all his strength and dashed to the bottom of the Flying Boat.
Then, he hugged Jia Bao's leg.
Now he didn't have to worry about being left behind.
Elder Xue Qi glanced at him and silently piloted his own Flying Sword.
Liu Shangchui might be having an easy time, but it was too shameful; he couldn't bring himself to do that.
On the Flying Boat.
The three women, led by Yuan Chen, walked hesitantly into the cabin.
As soon as the door opened, Xue Chai let out a startled cry, "What is that thing?"
She saw a ball of flesh curled up on the floor, constantly squirming.
Hearing the commotion, the strange thing turned around, revealing two rows of white, sharp teeth on its pitch-black face.
She was even more terrified.
Yuan Chen's face darkened, "Miss Xue Chai, you are insulting my son!"
Xue Chai looked closely and saw that it was indeed a child.
"..."
"Sorry, sorry, Young Master Yuan, I didn't pay attention."
Although he looked a bit strange, he was, after all, Yuan Chen's son.
She also felt that she had been a bit abrupt.
"Forget it, forget it."
"Come, Doudou, let your auntie hold you."
As he said this, he picked up the child without waiting for an answer and shoved him directly into Xue Chai's arms.
Xue Chai looked at the child in her arms, at a loss for what to do.
At the same time, the child's large, rolling eyes happened to meet hers.
"Little Mommy."
Xue Chai stared blankly at Yuan Chen.
Yuan Chen patted Yuan Doudou on the bottom, "It's not the time to call her that yet."
Xue Chai's expression was dazed, "Do you want to hear what you are explaining?"
Yuan Chen said with righteous indignation, "Don't look at me with that gaze, children speak without taboos."
"He is just a child, what does he know?"
