Chapter 27: Liu Xue Questions Ye Fan
As Ye Fan basked in the aftermath of his heroic deeds, he couldn’t help but revel in the satisfaction of rescuing the disciples from various sects. “Ah, the joys of being a hero,” he mused, a smirk playing on his lips.
Although the Azure Peak Sect had suffered some minor setbacks, Ye Fan brushed off the concern with a nonchalant shrug. “Nothing to worry about,” he dismissed, his focus squarely on his newfound admirers from the Jade Lotus Palace.
His heart raced with excitement at the thought of saving so many beauties from certain peril. “Saving damsels in distress never gets old,” he chuckled to himself, relishing in the adoration of the grateful disciples.
However, his jubilation was short-lived when he learned of Liu Xue’s disappearance from the battlefield. The news sent a jolt of concern through Ye Fan, his brows furrowing with worry. “Liu Xue… Where could she be?” he pondered, his thoughts consumed by the image of her beauty.
Liu Xue’s beauty was legendary, second only to Xia Qingwu’s, and the thought of her in danger stirred him to take action.
Determined to find her, Ye Fan took to the skies, scouring the Spiritual Mine for any sign of her whereabouts. But despite his efforts, he found no trace of the mysterious savior who had whisked Liu Xue away. “Where could they have gone?” he muttered, frustration creeping into his tone.
After hours of fruitless searching, Ye Fan reluctantly returned to the Spiritual Mine, only to be met with a surprising sight—Liu Xue had returned unscathed. “Well, well, look who’s back,” he remarked, eyeing her with a mixture of relief and curiosity.
As Liu Xue recounted her tale of rescue, Ye Fan couldn’t help but feel a twinge of skepticism. ‘An expert from her sect, huh?’ he thought, arching an eyebrow in suspicion. ‘Seems a bit fishy, but I’ll give her the benefit of the doubt for now.’
As Liu Xue approached Ye Fan, her heart raced with a mix of gratitude and curiosity. Here stood the man who had single-handedly turned the tide of battle in favor of the righteous sects, including her beloved Jade Lotus Palace. With a deep breath, she mustered the courage to express her thanks.
“Ye Fan, I can’t thank you enough for your invaluable assistance,” Liu Xue began, her voice tinged with admiration. “Your actions have saved countless lives and reclaimed this important Spiritual Mine for our cause.”
Ye Fan accepted her gratitude with a modest smile, his eyes subtly trailing over her form as she spoke. He couldn’t help but admire her beauty, finding her presence captivating. “It was my duty to stand against the forces of darkness and protect the righteous path,” he replied, his tone humble yet confident.
Liu Xue nodded in agreement, her eyes shining with respect. “You’ve done so much to rid our world of demonic influence. I’ve heard tales of your exploits, from defeating powerful cultivators to dismantling entire families with ties to darkness.”
As she mentioned his past deeds, Ye Fan’s chest swelled with pride, relishing in the recognition of his efforts. “I merely do what must be done to uphold righteousness,” he remarked, his voice carrying a hint of satisfaction.
However, Liu Xue couldn’t shake her curiosity about Ye Fan’s methods. “But how do you uncover the ties between these families and the demonic cultivators?” she inquired, her brow furrowing with genuine interest. “Surely, they would go to great lengths to conceal such connections.”
Ye Fan’s smile remained unwavering as he leaned in slightly, his gaze meeting hers. “Ah, that’s where my network of allies comes in,” he explained cryptically. “They provide me with the necessary information to root out the corruption lurking in our midst.”
Liu Xue nodded, though a hint of skepticism lingered in her expression. “But what about the lack of evidence after you’ve destroyed these families?” she pressed further, her curiosity piqued. “It seems convenient that there’s no proof left behind.”
Ye Fan’s response was casual, almost dismissive. “Those families were cunning, no doubt,” he replied, his tone nonchalant. “They took great pains to eliminate any incriminating evidence before my intervention.”
Liu Xue nodded slowly, though a nagging doubt tugged at the corners of her mind. “I understand,” she said, though her voice lacked conviction. She offered another word of thanks before turning to rejoin her fellow disciples.
As Liu Xue turned to leave, Ye Fan watched her with unabashed admiration. She was a rare beauty, and he couldn’t help but imagine the possibilities that lay ahead.
‘What a fascinating woman,’ he mused to himself, his thoughts drifting to the possibilities that lay ahead. ‘Perhaps it’s time to add another beauty to my collection.’
With a wicked gleam in his eye, Ye Fan followed at a distance, his mind already concocting a plan to make Liu Xue his own. After all, in his world, power and beauty were the ultimate prizes, and he intended to claim them both.
As Ye Fan contemplated his intricate plans to win over Liu Xue, he couldn’t help but feel a surge of excitement at the prospect of adding such a prestigious beauty to his collection.
However, he knew that wooing Liu Xue would require patience and finesse, given her esteemed position within the Jade Lotus Palace.
Meanwhile, thoughts of Xia Qingwu, the daughter of Xia Bingling, occupied a corner of Ye Fan’s mind.
He wondered if his token of sincerity to Xia Bingling would be enough to secure Xia Qingwu’s hand in marriage.
After all, with Wang Li out of the picture, Ye Fan saw himself as the most suitable candidate for Xia Qingwu’s affections.
As the disciples of the various sects departed from the Spiritual Mine, leaving behind only the members of the Golden Bell Temple, Wang Li emerged from the shadows. With a determined stride, he made his way westward to the Wayfarer Inn, where his cousin Wang Xiangyi awaited him.
Upon reaching the inn, Wang Li used his Heavenly Fate Pupils to locate Wang Xiangyi’s room. The unmistakable golden aura emanating from the third floor guided him to her location. Without hesitation, Wang Li flew through the window and into the room, where he found Wang Xiangyi reclining on the bed.
Startled at first, Wang Xiangyi relaxed upon recognizing her dear cousin’s presence. Wang Li wasted no time in rushing to her side, his concern evident as he embraced her tightly.
“Xiangyi, are you alright?” Wang Li’s voice was filled with genuine worry as he held her close, his heart racing with concern.
Wang Xiangyi nodded weakly, her injuries apparent despite her attempts to mask them. “I’ll be fine, cousin,” she reassured him, though her voice wavered with pain.
Determined to ease her suffering, Wang Li summoned his Yin-Yang Cultivation Ability, channeling its healing energies to mend her wounds. As he touched her intimately, his lips brushed against hers in a tender kiss, igniting a surge of energy that flowed between them.
And as he poured his energy into her, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of satisfaction knowing that he was able to ease her pain.
In the quiet intimacy of the room, Wang Li and Wang Xiangyi found solace in each other’s embrace.
After Wang Xiangyi had been healed, she shifted slightly, her gaze locking onto her dear cousin with a mixture of curiosity and desire.
“So, how did things go on your end?” she inquired, her voice soft with anticipation.
With a mischievous glint in his eye, Wang Li fondled her curvy buttocks and playfully nibbled on her ample bosom as he recounted his exploits.
“It went rather swimmingly, Xiangyi,” he replied, his voice laced with satisfaction. “I managed to save Liu Xue, the core disciple of the Jade Lotus Palace, and even persuaded her to look into the truth about the Wang Family.”
Wang Xiangyi’s breath hitched in response to her cousin’s sensual touch, a soft moan escaping her lips as waves of pleasure coursed through her body. “Oh, Li…” she murmured, her voice dripping with desire.
Though Wang Xiangyi acknowledged the potential benefits of Liu Xue’s investigation, she couldn’t shake off a twinge of jealousy at the thought of her cousin’s intimate dealings with another woman.
With a sultry gaze, she pressed him for details, her voice tinged with a hint of longing. “But how did you manage to win her over, cousin?” she inquired, her curiosity piqued.
Wang Li’s lips curled into a wicked grin as he confessed his secret. “I showed her a glimpse of my Yin-Yang Cultivation Ability,” he admitted, his tone filled with pride.
Wang Xiangyi’s eyebrows furrowed in disappointment, though she had expected as much. She couldn’t help but feel a twinge of jealousy at the thought of her cousin sharing such intimacy with another woman.
Sensing her discontent, Wang Li’s demeanor shifted, and he delivered a firm smack to her buttocks, eliciting a gasp of pleasure from Wang Xiangyi. “Hey now, none of that,” he chided playfully, his touch growing more assertive. “Think of it as a small sacrifice to overturn the public perception of our Wang Family.”
Wang Xiangyi’s breath caught in her throat as she felt her cousin’s touch intensify, her body responding eagerly to his commanding presence. “Yes, yes, of course,” she murmured, her voice thick with desire. “I understand, Li. It’s just… difficult, you know?”
Wang Li’s gaze softened as he looked into her eyes, his fingers tracing delicate patterns across her skin. “I know, Xiangyi,” he whispered, his voice filled with tenderness. “But trust me, it’ll all be worth it in the end.”
