Chapter 757 - 757 743 Are You Planning to Marry Me

Chapter 757: Chapter 743: Are You Planning to Marry Me? Chapter 757: Chapter 743: Are You Planning to Marry Me? “What are you thinking about!” Xuan Si said angrily.

“I’m worried that you’re being deceived by his appearance.” Xuan Hong said.

“What about his appearance? He’s better looking than you, his martial arts are higher than yours, he’s reliable, and what’s more, he’s the sect leader of the New City Sect.”

Xuan Hong was stunned. “Senior Sister, you’re not really falling for him, are you?”

“What are you talking about!”

“I mean, he won’t treat you loyal. Such an excellent man, especially as smooth as he is, there’s bound to be a bunch of women around him.” Xuan Hong worried that Xuan Si would fall for him at first sight.

“What nonsense at this time? Can’t you think about something useful?”

“I do think about it. I can’t wait to rescue our junior and senior sisters.”

“Save someone with your little martial arts? Can you even protect yourself? You’d be knocked into the forest by a big fellow’s palm.” Xuan Si said, flaring her nostrils.

“I’m trying hard. If I really can rescue them, I’m willing to commit myself.”

“Will your commitment make any difference! Will they want it?”

Xuan Hong was stunned. “Senior Sister, you’re not planning to commit yourself, are you?” He glanced at Ye Chen who was talking with Li Mo and muttered, “This guy won’t ask you to commit yourself to him in exchange for his help, will he?”

One slap came over, “Is your brain kicked by a donkey, always thinking about useless ideas?”

“Didn’t you say you would commit yourself!” Xuan Hong muttered again, “This guy will definitely propose such conditions. He will.”

“Hmm, I think it’s you who would propose such conditions. He’s a gentleman, he won’t.”

“A gentleman? How come? He asked you to commit yourself right away, reached out to touch your face, is this a gentleman?”

Xuan Si glared at him, he remembered it so well.

“A gentleman would behave like that! I think he drooled when he saw you, wanted you, and saved you. Look, today he mentioned ‘my wife’ to the monster, I think this guy has feelings for you.”

“You don’t know anything but you think you see through others’ hearts, know what others are thinking.”

“From his shady eyes, it’s clear to see, definitely not a good guy.”

“He’s the sect leader of the New City Sect, who helped defeat Longhun in the Celestial Demon world.”

“That doesn’t prove he’s not a bad guy.”

“Only you are a good guy, are you useful! With one iron hammer strike from him, you won’t even be able to find north from south.”

“I know, my martial arts skills are not as good as his, his martial arts skills are remarkable. Even if your dad was still here, he would not be this guy’s match.” Xuan Hong said, lowering his head as he ate.

Xuan Si was preoccupied with how to save her senior and junior sisters.

“I just want to protect you.”

“Protect yourself first.”

Xuan Si threw down the chicken bone and stood up.

“Where are you going?”

“I’m going to wash my face.”

“I’ll go with you.”

“I’m going to take a shower, are you coming too?”

Xuan Hong froze at her words, too afraid to speak.

Ye Chen said, “Li Mo, have some disciples stroll around to see if the Demon God’s base is nearby.”

“Are you really going to do the impossible, moved by a few tears from the girl!” Li Mo asked doubtfully, he just heard Ye Chen say he will try to save the thirty-plus girls from the Xuan Clan who were captured. That’s the Demon God’s base. It’s not a place any ordinary person could just walk into.

“I’m just asking them to look around, not to rescue.”

“I disagree.”

“What! You’ve grown some balls, ignoring my orders.”

“We only have these twenty or so people now, plus those that need protection from their group. We don’t even know how many people are watching at the base. If we go like that, it’s a suicide mission.”

Ye Chen’s voice chilled, “Understood. Do you think I’m really that foolish? To ignore the danger to our disciples! So impulsive and uncalm.”

“You’re likely to be foolish!”

Ye Chen was startled. It seemed that Li Mo had really grown some balls today.

“For boys, you wouldn’t be foolish, but for pretty girls, you would be. Didn’t you hand over the Jade Ring to Meng Xiuluo in order to save Yun’er back then, nearly causing us to be defeated?” Li Mo said quietly.

Hearing this, Ye Chen was really surprised, and hurriedly said, “I was indeed impulsive back then, but this time it’s different. I just want to find out if it’s nearby. In the future, when I come back to save them, I won’t have to keep searching, and of course, if there is really a chance, I don’t mind lending a hand.”

Li Mo stared over, he still didn’t trust him, he liked doing things that could move girls.

“I admit, it was somewhat foolish when saving Yun’er, but this time, I won’t be as foolish. Just believe me! Do you really think I would risk everything, even you guys’ lives, just for a few tears?”

Li Mo gave a faint smile.

“Heh, am I still your Sect Leader or not, you won’t listen to me anymore, huh.”

“Of course you’re my Sect Leader, but I’m afraid you’ll make a mistake for a few tears, for a beautiful girl.”

“If you rescue the dozen or so girls they’ve taken hostage, you’ll become a big hero and end your bachelorhood.” Ye Chen jokingly suggested.

Li Mo glared at him, muttering something that Ye Chen couldn’t quite catch.

“Someone’s growing bold, not taking my words to heart, huh?”

Li Mo only replied in low, grudging tones, “As you command, I’ll send people.” What else could he do? He was the Sect Leader.

“Oh, I’m not that reckless, I understand the gravity of the situation. I’ll be cautious and won’t act impulsively if it’s unnecessary.” Ye Chen pacified him proficiently.

Only then did Li Mo add, “What else could I possibly say? You’re our Sect Leader,” as he turned to walk away.

Ye Chen let out a silent sigh, somewhat speechless.

However, he couldn’t pretend as though nothing had happened now that several dozen girls had been taken captive. It was unconscionable. They were fairy-like maidens, innocent and bright, now imprisoned by the enemies. It was hard to imagine how many tears they had shed. If there was a chance for rescue, he couldn’t ignore it. If no such chance arose, well, that was a bridge he would cross later.

Ye Chen took a moment then started towards the riverbank. The gentle lapping of water caught his ear and looking over, he was startled to see a girl washing her face. For a moment, he mistaken it for her taking a bath and averted his eyes.

“Are you bathing?”

“Didn’t you see?” Xuan Si responded.

Ye Chen chuckled and turned back around, explaining, “I wasn’t trying to spy on you bathing.”

“I was just wiping off some sweat.” Xuan Si had by now gotten to her feet.

“If you’re planning to take a bath, I can keep watch for you to make sure no one comes this way.”

“Bet you want to watch me bathe.” Xuan Si approached him.

“Hey! How could I possibly watch you take a bath?”

“A capable and handsome young man like you, also the Sect Leader of New City Sect, must be the cynosure of young maidens, right?” Xuan Si was in a visibly better mood now.

“Ah, I’ve been dealt a tough hand in life. I might appear impressive, being the supreme leader of New City Sect, but I’ve offended a lot of enemies. This recent attack in the woods was due to the nefarious demons and the Third Demon. I almost lost my life. The girls are all afraid that I’ll soon end up in our enemies’ hands, so they keep their distance.”

Xuan Si didn’t believe a word he said and scoffed coldly.

“You still don’t believe me?”

“I don’t.”

“There’s nothing I can do about that. The reality is that I do yearn for companionship but can’t seem to find anyone. Despite the allure of my status, my life is rather harsh. People only see the surface but not the real me.” Ye Chen knelt down to wash his face.

Standing behind him, Xuan Si gave a mocking laugh. “Hard to believe. I bet girls surround you in troves. You must have misled many.” It was hard to envision him not attracting girls with his status and sugar-coated words.

“You’re wrong. I’m far from being a playboy, seriously.”

“That’s exactly what a playboy would say.”

Ye Chen just smiled and stood up.

“You must have a mind filled with flirtatious thoughts.”

Ye Chen quickly retorted, “Not at all! I’m simple and thoroughly dedicated.”

Xuan Si just gave a mocking smile. “As if I’d believe that.”

“Whether you believe it or not, that’s just who I am.” Ye Chen had now reached her side.

“Upon our first meeting, you asked me if I was willing to give myself to you, and even touched my face. Is that what an upright person does?” Xuan Si questioned.

“Hey! I was just kidding about you giving yourself to me. As for touching your face, it’s because your chubby cheeks are too much like a doll’s, simply too irresistible not to pinch.”

“Do you pinch the faces of all the girls you meet?”

“I wouldn’t dare; I’d become public enemy number one, labelled as a lunatic.”

“Well, being the Sect Leader of New City Sect, you certainly are impressive.”

“Are you referring to my martial arts?”

“Yes. I hadn’t met anyone as skilled as you until now.”

“You also never met someone as handsome as me, right?”

“Nonsense. You’d barely make it to the top ten on my list.”

“Hey, that’s a bit harsh.”

“Just be glad I didn’t put you after the top hundred.”

Ye Chen actually felt relieved. She had come a long way from her earlier sadness, which was comforting. It was high time she stopped being gloomy.

“Did you ever get married?” Xuan Si asked out of curiosity.

“Are you planning to marry me?” Ye Chen countered.

“Who proposes marriage to someone they just met?”

Ye Chen defended his question saying, “You asked about my marital status, which made me think you were considering marrying me. It was a simple association.”

Xuan Si continued shaking her head, “You probably don’t realize how many girls are after you.”

“Whether you believe it or not, I’m actually quite the loner. They all think I don’t give them a sense of security and that I could kick the bucket at any moment.”
