121: In Flying Tiger City, I met Yuyan again
Upon learning he was going to War Heaven City, Lu Yichan's eyes lit up: "What a coincidence, Young Master, my Revered Master is also going to that city. Chaner will accompany you this time."
"What does your Revered Master going have to do with you?"
"Isn't it because I want to accompany you?"
"Hey! I want to go too!"
Zhao Cailian raised her hand to interject.
"Why are you going?"
"Of course, to accompany Senior Brother!"
"There's no need for that."
"Senior Brother~ Please take Junior Sister with you~"
The young girl immediately clung to the man, acting spoiled.
Lin Yuan couldn't stand such stickiness and reluctantly said, "Alright, but you have to promise me to be obedient and not cause trouble."
"Senior Brother, please rest assured! Lianer will definitely be obedient!"
Zhao Cailian readily agreed.
The three women beside them, seeing this, showed envy in their eyes.
They also wanted to go out with their beloved, but their strength hadn't reached Condensing Core, so going out would only be a burden. Thus, they could only stay at home.
Gu Shuqin admonished, "Lin Yuan, when you go out this time, nothing else matters as much as your safety. Do you understand?"
Although the Mei Fu also wanted to accompany the man, there were already two women, so she felt too embarrassed to follow along.
"I know, Revered Master's Wife, Lin Yuan will be careful."
Thus, Lin Yuan took the two women, and the three of them left the Sect together, heading north.
...
Flying Tiger City.
City Lord's Mansion.
"It is truly an honor to have the esteemed Disciples of Cloud Ripple Sect grace us with your presence. I apologize for not welcoming you sooner."
The City Lord, a middle-aged man, respectfully cupped his hands to the three people before him.
These three consisted of one man and two women. The man was a young man, dressed in white brocade robes, with a frivolous and arrogant demeanor.
The women were Liu Yuyan and a beautiful young woman in a green dress.
"City Lord, there's no need for formalities. We are here to suppress bandits. Where are those bandits? Please lead us to them now."
The young man got straight to the point.
The City Lord hesitated, "Those bandits are highly skilled Cultivators, all Peak Condensing Core Realm experts. I'm afraid your strength alone might not be sufficient."
The young man scoffed, "Mere bandits cannot compare to Sect Disciples. There's no need for my two Junior Sisters to act; I alone can easily slay them."
The woman in the green dress also said, "It seems City Lord is unaware. My Senior Brother, Huang He, ranks sixty-seventh on the Cloud Ripple Sect's Heaven Ranking. Even when facing a Qi Gathering Realm expert, he has the confidence to fight, let alone a few Condensing Core Realm ants."
Heaven Ranking!
That was the combat power ranking for inner-Sect Condensing Core Realm Cultivators!
Every Cultivator on the ranking was a Prodigy; dealing with a few Condensing Core Realm bandits would naturally be a piece of cake for them.
The City Lord understood the prestige of the Heaven Ranking and immediately put on a respectful expression, cupping his hands and saying, "Please rest for a moment, everyone. As soon as I finish my current tasks, I will immediately take you to suppress the bandits."
After he left, the three sat down in the living room. The young man turned to look at the girl in the purple dress and said in a gentle tone, "Junior Sister Liu, with my help, it won't take long for you to complete your commission."
Liu Yuyan said indifferently, "Thank you for your Senior Brother's kindness. I can deal with the bandits alone; there's no need for your intervention."
The young man sighed, "Junior Sister, don't you understand my feelings for you?"
Beside them, the woman in the green dress, though feeling jealous, echoed, "Junior Sister, Senior Brother Huang is highly skilled and handsome. You two are a match made in heaven. Why won't you accept Senior Brother's feelings?"
Liu Yuyan replied, "I have just embarked on the path of Cultivation and am solely focused on becoming stronger. I have never considered finding a Dao Companion, so Senior Brother doesn't need to waste his time on me."
The young man forced a smile, "Even if Junior Sister says so, I will still persist in my choice. I believe that one day I will be able to move you."
Liu Yuyan pouted and ignored him.
In her opinion, this man's talent and appearance were far inferior to Lin Yuan's. After witnessing the young man's achievements, she had lost interest in ordinary men.
Rather than accepting this man's feelings, she would rather pursue Lin Yuan.
Although that guy was very petty, his talent was indeed outstanding, and he was very pleasing to the eye.
If he could overlook her offensive words from before, she wouldn't mind getting along with him.
Seeing her cold and aloof demeanor, a raging evil fire ignited in Huang He's heart. He wished he could immediately strip her naked and toy with her, to see if she would still dare to put on such an act.
"Senior Brother Huang, what's so good about this bitch? Why must you have her?"
The woman in the green dress transmitted her voice, indignant.
"You don't understand. Although this woman has a terrible personality, she is the daughter of the Liu Family's Patriarch. If I can win her over, my future will be bright."
Huang He suppressed his desires and transmitted his reply.
"Is that so? Then you won't abandon me after you get her, will you?"
"Ting'er, what are you saying? You are my first Dao Companion. No matter how many women I find in the future, your place in my heart will never change."
While he responded that way on the surface, he was already tired of her in his heart.
Although this woman was also beautiful, she was several levels below Liu Yuyan. If he had to choose between the two, he would undoubtedly choose the latter.
"Hehe, then I'll believe Senior Brother."
The woman replied, and the conversation ended. All three closed their eyes and Cultivated quietly.
Soon after, the City Lord returned and said, "Excuse me, everyone, I was a bit busy with affairs and kept you waiting."
"No matter. Can we depart now?"
"Yes."
The City Lord walked towards the door, and the three rose to follow.
Just as they reached the mansion's entrance, they encountered three more people.
It was also one man and two women. The man was as graceful as a jade tree, one woman was tall and ethereal, and the other was petite and charming, each possessing her own unique charm.
After Cultivating the Yin Yang Divine Skill and receiving the man's nourishment, their faces became even more radiant and beautiful, almost reaching a level of absolute beauty.
At first glance at the two women, Huang He's eyes went straight.
So beautiful!
There were such beautiful women in Flying Tiger City!
What was their origin?
Curious, he cupped his hands and asked, "I am Huang He, an inner-Sect Disciple of Cloud Ripple Sect. It is an honor to meet the two Fairies. May I ask where you are from?"
The man's brazenly covetous gaze made both women frown involuntarily.
Although displeased, out of politeness, they still responded indifferently.
"Lu Yichan of Cloud Ripple Sect."
"Zhao Cailian of Cloud Ripple Sect."
"Lu Yichan, Zhao Cailian..."
Muttering the two names, he suddenly thought of something and blurted out, "Are you Chief Shen's Disciple and Chief Chi's Disciple?"
The two women nodded and said no more.
They were actually Chief Disciples!
Several people could not hide their astonishment.
Lin Yuan ignored Huang He and went straight to the middle-aged man, saying, "Hello, are you the City Lord of Flying Tiger City? We are here to suppress bandits."
"You're also here to suppress bandits?"
Huang He's expression changed, and he refused on their behalf, "Excuse me, we have already accepted the commission; we don't need outside help. Please return."
Lin Yuan glanced at him, "Who stipulated that if someone accepts a commission, others cannot?"
