Chapter 255 - Enhanced Version Of The Protagonist
"Well..."
Ye Anping saw that no one was around, so he stopped in his tracks and turned his head to look at her. Upon noticing that Feng Yu Die was staring somewhere down, he lowered his head, following her line of sight, and instantly, his eyes twitched. He grabbed her chin and forced her head up.
"What are you looking at?"
"No... nothing."
Feng Yu Die widened her eyes when she suddenly realized that Ye Anping was touching her. He even used his index finger to lift her chin! She quickly took a step back with a frown. "What are you doing?!"
?
"What did I do?"
Feng Yu Die wiped her chin. "Why are you pawing my chin? You, perv, trying to fool me again when I\'m not paying attention! I won\'t fall for it! Hmph--"
"...?"
Ye Anping didn\'t understand her brain circuit. She was the one who stared at his crotch in the first place, so why was he the pervert? Is this rascal going to file a complaint without even having evidence?
At this moment, two golden lights streaked across the sky, causing the wind to roar overhead.
Ye Anping followed the sound and saw the two golden lights land in the courtyard from where they had just come out. He knew that Elder Tianxing and Elder Wu had probably arrived.
He thought for a moment before saying, "Sister Feng, Yun Yiyi will bring two Elders today or tomorrow to enter the Thousand Sword Pool with Sister Yun Jiujiu. I need you to follow along as well. Your purpose is to protect the two of them at every step."
Feng Yu Die frowned and asked, "Can\'t I go in with you? Aren\'t there two Nascent Soul Elders? If they can\'t protect them, I definitely can\'t protect them either."
Ye Anping shook his head slightly as he explained, "Elder Tianxing and Elder Wu will confront Zhuang Yan and Yun Kunwu. Although Yun Kunwu will be using a demonic body, his cultivation method itself is extraordinary. Even facing a Nascent Soul stage cultivator, he won\'t immediately be defeated, and the aftermath of their battle could cause Yun Yiyi and Yun Jiujiu to die dozens of times."
"..."
"Furthermore, while dealing with Zhuang Yan and Yun Kunwu, they will definitely not be able to spare any effort and will not have the energy to protect the two sisters."
"That is to say, I\'ll just take them and hide?"
"Precisely."
"Are you sure I can do it? Last time, a Nascent Soul cultivator~ Miss Li\'s father, dealt with me with just a wave of his hand."
Just like before, there will be a few more bumps and bruises... Ye Anping smiled and nodded.
"Your Holy Emperor Dragon Body is enough."
"..."
Feng Yu Die narrowed her eyes, suddenly suspicious.
Last time at the Dragon House, Ye Anping said the same thing, but she ended up getting stabbed in the shoulder by that mid-level Core Formation demonic cultivator, and it hurt for several days.
Seeing the look in her eyes, Ye Anping pursed his lips, feeling a bit helpless. Suddenly, he felt that his subordinates had learned the ropes, refusing to work without a pay raise.
After a moment, he said, "I promise that you will be safe and sound in the end, and when the matter is settled, I will give you a satisfactory reward."
"Um... Sister Pei?"
"?"
Feng Yu Die blinked and asked expectantly, "You\'ll let me kiss Sister Pei?"
"Don\'t even think about it." Ye Anping showed a kind smile and raised his hand to stop her, saying, "It\'s something better than Sister Pei."
"... How can there be something better than Sister Pei? Spirit stones are nothing compared to her!" Feng Yu Die raised her eyebrows and tilted her head. Then, she proudly patted her chest as she declared, "Sister Pei is the greatest treasure in the world to me!"
Ye Anping rolled his eyes. "It\'s a technique that suits you perfectly."
"Tsk~~" Feng Yu Die immediately gave Ye Anping a big roll of her eyes, as if she wasn\'t interested at all. "Then, you might as well give me more spirit stones."
Ye Anping shook his head slightly, and then subconsciously reached out to his storage bag to show her the two fragments of the Black Moon Routine he had obtained before, but the storage bag was with his sister, so he had to give up.
"I don\'t have it with me, but I guarantee that you will absolutely love it when you see it."
"Oh."
Feng Yu Die pursed her lips, not looking excited, but after thinking for a while, she seemed to have discovered a problem, and frowned in confusion. "But, can I follow them in? Isn\'t that the Sword Sect\'s forbidden area? And Jiujiu is still angry with me."
"She won\'t be for long."
"How do you know?"
"Yun Jiujiu\'s temper comes and goes quickly. You have spent so much time together, she won\'t forget the days of drinking wine and eating roasted chicken with you. There are some feelings involved there. She may ignore you for a while, but deep down, she is extremely conflicted. If you take the initiative to speak to her, she will agree to let you go in with her.\'\'
Feng Yu Die froze for a moment, then frowned as she sarcastically said, \'\'You are indeed skilled at deceiving girls.\'\'
\'\'Thank you for the compliment.\'\'
\'\'What compliment?! You scoundrel!\'\' Feng Yu Die crossed her arms and turned her head away, but after a moment, she asked, \'\'What about you? What are you going to do? Don\'t tell me you\'re just waiting for my good news.\'\'
"I\'ll go with my sister first to save Yun Xi and also to assist the two Elders in fighting Zhuang Yan and Yun Kunwu. The strength of both sides are similar, and any slight advantage can tip the balance."
\'\'I see...\'\'
Feng Yu Die waved her hand, took one last look at Ye Anping\'s crotch, and then turned around to go back to Yun Jiujiu.
"Then. I\'ll go now."
"Fine..." Ye Anping nodded, but suddenly paused and stopped her. "Wait a minute."
"What now?"
"Lend me your flying sword."
Feng Yu Die narrowed her eyes. She raised her hand and spread her five fingers, raising her eyebrows twice. "Hmm?"
"... Okay, I\'ll give you five hundred later."
"Hmph!"
Feng Yu Die sneered, took out the flying sword from her storage bag, and threw it to him before turning around and leaving along the corridor.
Catching the flying sword, Ye Anping watched her go away, then lowered his head to look at the sword and murmured, "Scammer..."
Ye Anping could see that Feng Yu Die suddenly started to dislike him. Combined with what she had said, "You are indeed skilled at deceiving girls", a suspicion arose in his heart.
Could that "cheating" mean that Feng Yu Die thought he was flirting with her?
When he thought of this, Ye Anping frowned silently. He didn\'t think about this before and didn\'t notice it, but when he recalled getting along with Feng Yu Die over the past year, there seemed to be some ambiguity in their interaction that he couldn\'t explain.
It was really subtle...
He wondered if it was because of the fate-binding influence Si Xuanji had mentioned? Was the Heavenly Fate making him and Feng Yu Die grow close to each other unknowingly?
Thinking about this, Ye Anping imagined Feng Yu Die without clothes.
With her childish face, silver hair, and perfect body proportions, Feng Yu Die gave him the feeling of a breeze blowing, as calm as still water, without any ripples.
He even felt that if he imagined her for a while, he could directly become a Buddha.
As a result, he didn\'t think about it anymore, stepped on Feng Yu Die\'s flying sword, and headed toward Night Tide Peak.
