Chapter 107
Di Xiulan said, “Hua Wuhuang, Lu Yin, and someone you’ve met before-Liang Ye.”
Ye Piaoling was a little surprised to hear that.
Hua Wuhuang was an all-around genius, so that went without saying.
Elder Lu’s swordsmanship would definitely come in handy in the Forbidden Land of the Gods.
But Liang Ye? He was basically dead weight. What was the point of bringing him along? Were they short one person and just needed someone to fill the slot?
Ye Piaoling was puzzled, but since Di Xiulan had arranged it this way, he must have had his reasons. She didn’t ask any further.
She reached out, pulled the blade from the table, and stood. “I’m going back to pack. Time to prepare for a long trip.”
Di Xiulan’s gaze fell on the blade.
“What is that?”
“My new weapon-the number one blade under heaven, the Heart Demon Blade!” Ye Piaoling said proudly.
Di Xiulan asked, “Where did it come from?”
Ye Piaoling said, “Pinxixi gave it to me. I used it to defeat my heart demon and make the final cut for Pinxixi!”
Di Xiulan: “?”
Ye Piaoling put on a mysterious expression. “Heart demons are terrifying things. You wouldn’t understand!”
Di Xiulan’s eyes flickered. “It seems you gained quite a lot from your trip to the Life Origin Realm. Other than obtaining a weapon, have you noticed any slight changes in your body?”
“My body?” Ye Piaoling blinked. “What changes? I haven’t felt anything.”
Di Xiulan’s lips curved faintly. “Come with me.”
With a huge question mark practically floating over her head, Ye Piaoling followed Di Xiulan into the inner courtyard. At his instruction, they both changed into bathrobes and got into the hot spring.
Although this wasn’t the first time she had bathed with this man, Ye Piaoling still blushed slightly.
“Hey, this change you mentioned-what exactly is it?”
“Soak for a while, and you’ll know.”
Ye Piaoling suppressed her confusion and leaned back against the stone wall beside him.
The warm spring water washed away the exhaustion from her body. Ye Piaoling closed her eyes in comfort, recalling scene after scene from the Eternal Life Origin Realm…
When she thought of Xiao Chengxu’s righteous act of putting family aside for justice, a sudden thought popped into her mind. She couldn’t help asking him.
“Babe…”
“Mm?”
“If one day I accidentally turned into an evil creature, would you also kill me without mercy?”
Hearing this, Di Xiulan lazily curved his lips and said, “Who knows?”
Ye Piaoling: “…”
Just listen to that careless tone of his. No need to think about it-this cold-blooded Divine Venerable would definitely show no mercy if she really became an evil creature!
“Hmph. Heartless.”
Ye Piaoling muttered the insult under her breath, then turned her head and ignored him.
The man glanced sideways at her, a complicated light flashing through his eyes.
Silly girl.
You already are an evil creature…
You just don’t know it yourself.
Without another word, he suddenly reached out and drew the girl beside him into his arms, then lowered his head and kissed her lips.
Ye Piaoling: “!!?”
Holy crap, had he lost his mind? Why was he suddenly kissing her again?!
Ye Piaoling tried to push him away and grab his shoulders to shake him hard while asking if he was okay, but she couldn’t break free from his hold.
It was a lingering, soul-stirring deep kiss. Her lips and teeth were pried open, and their breaths tangled together in an instant…
Through the thin bathrobe, the girl’s body pressed closely against the man’s. She could even feel his heartbeat!
He kissed her like that, and his practiced, veteran-level technique left her completely unable to resist. Before she could even figure out what was happening, her entire body had already begun to go weak, and her mind turned a little dizzy. She was about to drown in his tenderness.
That feeling was as if, no matter what he wanted to do next, it would all be fine…
After a long while, he finally released her lips. Beside her ear, he laughed hoarsely and said, “I saw you were angry, so I gave you a hundred little kisses to cheer you up.”
Ye Piaoling: “…”
This trick again?
Was he addicted to using it or what?
For one instant, she nearly cursed him out.
But when she remembered that if she did, he would definitely continue “comforting” her, Ye Piaoling wisely forced the words back down. She swallowed a furious breath and gritted out, “I’m warning you. You’re not allowed to use this trick again!”
“You don’t like it?” The man raised a brow and said gently, “Then I’ll use something else next time.”
Something else…
Ye Piaoling’s poor little heart inexplicably trembled.
Why did that feel even less safe?
She didn’t know, and she didn’t dare ask. Uneasy all over, she sank down miserably.
After a long moment, she finally squeezed out a question. “Lord Divine Venerable, in your Heavenly Realm, do you have a whole harem of wives and concubines?”
Di Xiulan said calmly, “This Venerable has cultivated in purity for ten thousand years and has never had any romantic ties.”
Ye Piaoling snorted. “Like anyone would believe that!”
Di Xiulan said, “Oh?”
Ye Piaoling said gloomily, “If you’ve never had any romantic ties, how are you so good at it?”
So good at flirting that a girl could barely survive it!
