Chapter 948: Chapter 588: Take Action

Gulp...

Xu Yuan watched the barefooted young girl and subconsciously swallowed his saliva.

After a few seconds of eye contact,

Xu Yuan opened his mouth, barely managing to pull a smile on his lips, wanting to say something.

But the gaze in the eyes of the palace-dressed young girl sitting in the corner of the ice cave silenced the words back into his stomach.

The conversation with Xiao Bai just now should have been through voice transmission.

But if he didn’t remember wrongly,

The Celestial Fates Divine Soul could presumably discern through voice transmissions, right?

Xu Yuan felt a bit like crying, a bit like laughing, but more than anything, he wanted to fend it off.

The problems of being caught cheating from his past life were beginning to emerge again.

In his previous life, Xu Yuan experienced being caught in an affair three times, but each ended with him coolly managing the situation.

Xu Yuan never thought it was his fault, even feeling that it was the other party that had issues.

What infidelity? After all, he never acknowledged the relationship.

With the faster ones, it was a direct progression from striking up a conversation to dining and drinking and heading to a hotel in one go.

With the slower ones, it’d take at most a week before things escalated.

If it’s so easy, wouldn’t it be just indulging in carnal desire? Without confirming the boyfriend-girlfriend status, what were these people fussing about?

Memories of his past life flashed through Xu Yuan’s mind, and he abruptly refocused.

Great, he was startled into having his life flash before his eyes too.

But could those bad women from his past life even compare with the little ice ball?

No, he couldn’t just fend this off yet.

With a sudden concentration in his heart, Xu Yuan smiled gently and said warmly, "Yesterday, I noticed the spellcraft aura of the Yantian Art in Su Jinxuan’s Sea of Consciousness. Tianyan, did you come here following the dispersed Energy Mechanism?"

As soon as he spoke, the grandeur of the Ice Crystal Cave fell into silence for a moment.

Bai Muxi’s bright eyes were somewhat astonished.

The Saintess?

The Saintess has come?

Ran Qingmo, sitting at the entrance of the cave, had no doubts and immediately stood up.

Tianyan slowly lifted her face, hidden between her knees, listlessly staring at him with her eyelids drooping, her crisp voice rising, elongated:

"Ah... yes, that’s how I came here, Xu Yuan, you seem very unhappy?"

"How could I be unhappy."

Xu Yuan chuckled as he walked towards her: "Tianyan, it seems like we’ve already..."

"Don’t come any closer!"

Following Tianyan’s sharp voice, the vast Ice Crystal Cave was split in two, a crack appearing right before Xu Yuan’s feet.

Tianyan lifted her eyes, smiling askew, her magnificent golden eyes without a glint: "I am well aware of all your tricks, don’t think about getting close to me."

A hostile approach.

Ran Qingmo’s clear eyes twinkled, and with a flip of her jade hand, the Ink Sword was directly in her grasp.

Xu Yuan’s mind was rapidly considering strategies and failed to notice Ran Qingmo’s reaction.

But Tianyan did see it.

The golden pupils scanned across, and with a slight curve of thin red lips, Tianyan said with a slightly somber tone:

"Hah~ Ran Qingmo, are you drawing your sword for a fight?"

"...."

Ran Qingmo didn’t speak, but her dark eyes were cautious, and she slightly tightened her grip on the sword’s hilt.

The golden-eyed girl’s pupils narrowed slightly, and Qi around her surged abruptly.

Her slender figure swiftly soared into the air, her intricate palace attire fluttering with the surge of Qi.

Tianyan’s pair of golden eyes stared intently at the ink-dressed woman not far away, walking on air, step by step toward her.

This is a disaster...

Watching the two surging streams of Qi before him, Xu Yuan felt a wave of tingling on his scalp.

From the fragmented memories within the Enchantress Divine Illusion Realm, how could he not know that Tianyan was utterly enraged?

Now, this Washboard Saintess was really going to take action.

The atmosphere within the Ice Crystal Cave grew increasingly tense as Tianyan drew closer to Ran Qingmo.

At the moment where the tension was at its peak,

Bai Muxi suddenly clenched the hem of her dress, biting her silver teeth and quickly whispered:

"Saint, it seems you’ve misunderstood."

The Saintess or Mr. Ran—she didn’t know who to side with, but standing with the young master was always right.

"Misunderstanding?"

Tianyan’s barefoot lingered in midair.

Bai Muxi pursed her lips and quickly said, "What Mu Xi just said was actually teasing the gentleman..."

Mid-sentence,

Bai Muxi’s voice got softer and softer until it finally ceased.

Because Tianyan’s golden eyes had already swept over.

The gaze in those eyes carried a slightly deep and dark smile.

If she said one more word, Bai Muxi felt that with the Saintess’s current mental state, she would definitely make a move against her.

It seems... broken.

Walking through the void without any sound, her wide palace dress brushed over the ice surface and immediately flutters.

As Tianyan arrived at the broken part of the cave, Xu Yuan suddenly took a deep breath and transmitted his voice saying:

"I’m actually very worried about you."

"Worried about me?"

Tianyan’s figure briefly stalled, but then she looked at Xu Yuan with a smiling gaze.

But before the girl could speak, Xu Yuan continued transmitting his voice in a calm and unhurried narrative:

"The Black Scale Guards have reported that you and Su Jinxuan entered the Qianji Gorge together.

"But when the three of us were in that Nameless Villa of the Saint Level Ghost previously, we only saw Su Jinxuan alone, and your whereabouts were unknown."

Near the end of his words, Xu Yuan’s voice carried a hint of murderous intent.

"...."

Listening to the man’s words, Tianyan’s beautiful eyes widened slightly, and her unhighlighted golden pupils rippled.

Saying this, Xu Yuan suddenly raised his eyes to look at Tianyan and spoke very seriously:

"To obtain your intelligence, I must go through Su Jinxuan, and you should know her condition."

After speaking, silence ensued.

The barefooted girl’s eyelids drooped, and the surging Qi around her began to dissipate bit by bit.

Seeing this, Xu Yuan was about to step forward when he heard her abrupt voice:

"Why do you know that vixen’s name is Su Jinxuan, and that she is the Enchantress Divine Physique? How are you so familiar with her?"

"...."

Xu Yuan was slightly stunned.

Tianyan doesn’t know about Su Jinxuan’s relationship with him?

Does that mean the Qin Family and Jiatiange are not allied forces?

Without any hesitation, Xu Yuan opened his mouth and said:

"She is a collaborating partner of the Black Scale Guards and also our mole planted in the Qin Family by the Prime Minister’s Mansion."

Hearing this, Tianyan burst into a crisp laugh, lifting her eyelids to stare at Xu Yuan:

"Oh ho ho ho... Then why has Su Jinxuan been constantly talking about a certain gentleman all along the way.

"Xu Yuan,

"Who is this gentleman she speaks of?"

"...." Xu Yuan’s eye twitched.

Tianyan stared at him with reddened eyes for a few moments and then slowly uttered two words:

"...Liar."

After saying that,

Tianyan bit her lip and threw a punch directly at his chest.

Xu Yuan didn’t dodge; instead, he let out a long sigh of relief in his heart.

The Washboard Saintess being willing to hit him meant that her anger had subsided.

Getting punched would hurt, but it wouldn’t inflict an injury.

But just then, an unexpected change occurred!

Just as Tianyan’s fist was about to reach his chest, a sudden pulling force came from behind him.

In the blink of an eye,

Xu Yuan caught a glimpse of a figure in black as dark as ink out of the corner of his eye.

This is bad.

Ran Qingmo pulled him back by the collar with one hand holding the Ink Sword and raised the scabbard to block Tianyan’s punch with the other hand.

"Bang!"

A muffled sound; air waves rolled.

Tianyan’s flat chest heaved slightly, and her voice emerged with a bite and a smile:

"Ran Qingmo, what right do you have to intervene in matters between me and Xu Yuan?"

Ran Qingmo’s gaze was serene, and her red lips parted slightly:

"I won’t allow you to hit Xu Yuan."

"...." Xu Yuan.

Hahaha, how hilarious.....
