173: Chapter 173 Related to Demon Addiction 173: Chapter 173 Related to Demon Addiction Ye Shikai almost landed a punch on Ghost’s face, and Tang Yun blushed when she heard what Ghost had said.

“I’d better go back to Europe with the other passengers.

I still have work there.” Tang Yun declined Ji Qian’s kindness and decided to return to Europe with the passengers, while Ye Shikai took the private jet prepared by Ji Qian back to Europe.

“What’s wrong with you?

How do you always run into such dangerous situations?” On the private jet, Ji Qian gently massaged Ye Shikai’s shoulders.

“Ah, as if I want to.

Trouble seems to love clinging to me.” Ye Shikai enjoyed the massage from Ji Qian, and just the thought of the hijackers’ terrifying plan angered him—people do anything for money.

“Hey, Boss, what are you guys up to?” At that moment, Ghost opened the door and walked straight in.

Ye Shikai said with some displeasure, “Didn’t I tell you to stay outside and watch?”

“Ah, is that woman in white made of ice or what?

I talked to her for ages, and she didn’t even bother with me.” Ghost complained, likely referring to Ji Qian’s confidant Selena.

Hearing this, Ji Qian couldn’t help but laugh.

“Nonsense, with that look of yours, you’re just a creepy guy trying to hit on beauties.

Any normal woman wouldn’t give you the time of day,” Ye Shikai said helplessly.

Due to the relationship between Ye Shikai and Ji Qian, the people from Netherworld Palace and Moon God Temple had become familiar with each other.

Ye Shikai had seen Selena many times, and she seemed to be an Ice Queen too, similar in temperament to Nightmare—both not very talkative.

“Ooops, sorry about that, sister-in-law is also here.” You Lin glanced at Ji Qian, feeling somewhat embarrassed; after all, Selena belonged to Ji Qian, and his comments might have upset her.

But when You Lin called her “sister-in-law,” a shadow passed over Ji Qian’s face.

Su Qingyu and Ye Shikai had registered their marriage, so of course, the position of “big sister-in-law” belonged to Su Qingyu, hence Ghost could only address Ji Qian as “sister-in-law.”

“Alright, Ghost, you go out first.

And let the Netherworld Palace know that I’m coming back; those boys must be getting restless again.” After Ye Shikai finished speaking, Ghost left, leaving Ji Qian and Ye Shikai alone.

“Are you bothered by what Ghost just said?” Seeing Ji Qian’s face gradually turning cold, Ye Shikai knew it must have been because of that comment.

Which woman would want to be the lesser?

Especially someone as proud as Ji Qian.

But it is undeniable that Su Qingyu is legally married to Ye Shikai.

“It’s nothing, I don’t blame him, he’s just stating the facts,” Ji Qian sighed and then sat on the chair silently.

“How’s the situation on Holy Mountain in Europe?” Suddenly, Ye Shikai asked, “The mythical stones used by Poseidon in combat, and the one from the auction last time—are they both from Holy Mountain?”

“You’re right, the amount of energy contained within these stones is beyond imagination, and they do come from Holy Mountain,” Ji Qian said.

Ye Shikai nodded slightly, having witnessed the terrifying power of these stones during the battle with Poseidon.

“And legend has it that there are many more stones like these on Holy Mountain,” Ji Qian added.

Hearing this, Ye Shikai’s expression became grim.

If a small piece of such stone was already so alarming, what would happen if someone had access to them in bulk?

That would be like cheating.

“Do the other Main Gods know about this?” Ye Shikai asked in a serious tone.

“They probably do.

Not only them but also some other underground forces.

Although they are currently not on par with the Main Gods, they too want to use these stones to gain greater power than the Main Gods.

So, they will definitely get involved this time,” Ji Qian continued, handing Ye Shikai a tablet.

Ye Shikai opened the tablet, which displayed some of the major events that had recently occurred in Europe.

It was not hard to see that various major and underground forces were beginning to stir, continuously expanding towards Holy Mountain.

Clearly, they wanted a piece of the action.

“Remember how the plane was originally supposed to land in the volcano of Yidong Country?

That area is under Fire God Hephesto’s jurisdiction.

I was actually worried that he might interfere with the hijacking incident.”

“And then?” Ye Shikai asked.

“I just received news that Hephesto has already arrived in Europe and is not in Yidong Country.

No wonder he didn’t intervene.” Ji Qian said, “Hephesto is no pushover, you be careful.”

“Is that so, bring it on.

If he dares to provoke me, I’ll make sure he can’t return.” Ye Shikai appeared nonchalant.

Poseidon dared to come after him and ended up missing, let alone others.

If someone seeks trouble, what’s the use of hiding?

Ye Shikai was certainly not afraid.

“Besides, I have you here, don’t I?” Ye Shikai smiled at Ji Qian, adhering to the principle of thick-skinnedness; if Ye Shikai got into a fight with someone else, Ji Qian would definitely take his side.

“I won’t help you,” Ji Qian glanced sideways with a terse face.

“Really?” Ye Shikai roguishly placed his hand on Ji Qian’s waist and gave it a gentle squeeze.

“Alright, cut it out.

Let me tell you something else; Wang Kai is coming to Europe in a few days,” Ji Qian said as she blushed and brushed away Ye Shikai’s hand.

“Really?

That’s great!” Ye Shikai exclaimed with surprise.

Wang Kai, one of the twelve Main Gods, was a War God, and like Ye Shikai and Ji Qian, he was Huaxian.

He met Ye Shikai a few years ago, and they had a good relationship.

If Wang Kai came, then there would be three Main Gods; such a force is definitely formidable.

In that case, entering Holy Mountain would also be less dangerous.

“Do you know why I was so eager to urge you to come to Holy Mountain?” Ji Qian stared into Ye Shikai’s eyes.

“You missed me, right?

It’s so lonely for you abroad, ah, women just can’t handle the emptiness,” Ye Shikai joked.

“Can’t you be serious for a moment?

I suspect Holy Mountain is related to your condition,” Ji Qian first rolled her eyes and then pointed at Ye Shikai’s heart.

“You mean, Demon Addiction,” Ye Shikai asked.

“Exactly.

Remember last time at the auction, when Demon Addiction flared up and you almost lost control?

And the cause was that strange stone,” Ji Qian said.

“Demon Addiction is something you contracted when you first became a Main God, and as the number of killings increased, the disease became more severe.”

“If I’m not wrong, coming to Holy Mountain should be able to solve your Demon Addiction problem.”

“Really?” Ye Shikai excitedly slammed the table.

Demon Addiction had been plaguing him for a long time, and if it could be cured, it would definitely save him a lot of trouble.
