201: Chapter 201: Who is She?
“Thank you.” Su Ziqing said faintly, taking the water cup handed over by Li Mengmeng and took a delicate sip before speaking viciously, “But just wait, I won’t hold back later.”
“Of course.” Li Mengmeng was taken aback by Su Ziqing’s response, followed by a burst of laughter.
Despite Li Mengmeng’s appearance and demeanor being like that of the girl next door, at that moment, Su Ziqing seemed more like a little girl.
“By the way, have you heard any news about Brother Kai recently?” Suddenly, Li Mengmeng’s expression turned serious.
It seemed that during Shikai’s time in Holy Mountain, quite a few women were keeping an eye on him.
Su Ziqing looked disdainful, she was indeed still thinking about her brother-in-law.
But honestly, she didn’t have any news of Ye Shikai either, so she shook her head.
“Alright then.” A flash of disappointment crossed Li Mengmeng’s face.
“Hmph, I knew you were thinking about my brother-in-law.” Su Ziqing muttered under her breath, but Li Mengmeng overheard her.
“That’s right, I am thinking about Brother Kai.” After hearing this, Li Mengmeng slowly raised her head, her face somewhat stern and resolute.
“But it’s just an unrequited love.
If she hadn’t left, it probably wouldn’t have been my turn to confess.” Li Mengmeng slowly stood up, her tone filled with regret and unwillingness.
With her presence before, Li Mengmeng could only be a little girl following behind Ye Shikai.
A mere few years of age difference became an insurmountable gap for Li Mengmeng, dooming her to be just Ye Shikai’s little sister, not his childhood sweetheart.
But now that she had left, Ye Shikai was married.
“Who are you talking about?”
“Who are you talking about?” Su Ziqing and Han Ruoyao both asked in unison.
Although neither of them knew who ‘she’ was, driven by feminine intuition, especially Su Ziqing, they could sense the hint of unresolved emotions, and Li Mengmeng’s comments about ‘her’ further piqued Su Ziqing’s curiosity.
“You may be able to see her in the future.” Li Mengmeng didn’t answer Su Ziqing and turned to leave directly.
As she turned, sparkling tears spilled from her eyes…
“Li Mengmeng, stop right there.” Suddenly, Su Ziqing slammed the table and stood up to shout.
This action perplexed everyone around; the students who were quietly studying jumped at Su Qingyu’s shout and all turned to look at Su Ziqing.
“Hey, isn’t that the school beauty of Yanjing University?
What’s happening with her?” A student whispered.
“Yeah, and isn’t that other girl the school beauty from Beitian University?
What’s going on with the two of them?” Another echoed.
…
The crowd quickly recognized the three girls and began to talk amongst themselves.
The once quiet library started to get noisy, and that’s when a librarian stepped out.
“Please keep quiet in the library,” the librarian approached Su Ziqing and reminded her gently.
Su Ziqing looked as explosive as fireworks, her angry face carrying a ‘keep away’ message, even the librarian didn’t dare scold her.
“Qingqing, please sit down first.” Han Ruoyao whispered, feeling embarrassed by the surrounding spectators and hurriedly tugged at Su Ziqing’s sleeve, hoping she would sit down.
After all, they were representatives of their university, and this was damaging the university’s image.
But Su Ziqing, feeling both anxious and angry, shook off Han Ruoyao’s hand.
“I’m off to prepare for the competition,” Li Mengmeng said indifferently, not looking back as she directly left, leaving a fuming Su Ziqing behind.
“Qingqing, you were too impulsive just now,” Han Ruoyao poured a glass of water for Su Ziqing.
After everyone had dispersed and Su Ziqing calmed down, her anger wasn’t really about Li Mengmeng herself, but because Li Mengmeng refused to reveal that person, which agitated her.
“It’s her fault for speaking in half-truths, and saying things like that.” Once Su Ziqing’s anger dissipated, her face slowly turned red.
She had made a fool of herself in front of so many people; in fact, she was more thin-skinned than Han Ruoyao and had lost her temper because she was upset.
“When Shikai comes back, I’m going to ask him seriously,” Han Ruoyao said indignantly.
“Exactly, that stinky brother-in-law, just wait until I get my hands on you,” Su Ziqing said, her cheeks puffing up with anger, wishing she could drag Ye Shikai before her immediately.
…
Atop Holy Mountain.
“Achoo,” Ye Shikai suddenly sneezed without warning.
Strange, could someone be thinking of me…?
“You’re not coming down with a cold, are you?” Ji Qian came up and teased.
For a cultivator, they’re practically immune to things like viruses, and a cold is even more unlikely.
Even though this was a snowy mountain, Ye Shikai had already circulated his Inner Strength; he shouldn’t be feeling cold.
“I think a woman must be thinking about you,” the Demoness said in a faint voice beside Ye Shikai’s ear.
Ye Shikai didn’t dare argue with the Demoness.
There were three women in Netherworld Palace—the Demoness, Ailina, and Zi Yun—each one Ye Shikai’s bane.
The first two were the crazy-in-love type, prone to insane episodes without careful attention, while Zi Yun was a chaos-lover, a mistress of poisons that permeated everywhere.
She was probably the scourge of everyone in the Netherworld Palace…
Ye Shikai figured he should introduce them to those crazy girls, Su Ziqing and Luo Shiqi.
“We’ve been walking for a while and haven’t seen any other palaces,” Wang Kai said somewhat impatiently.
Since Ye Shikai had already found the Netherworld Palace, he was very anxious, hoping to find the War God Temple and seize the fortunes inside sooner.
“Don’t worry, the War God Temple should be nearby,” Ji Qian consoled.
Honestly, Wang Kai’s combat power was formidable, enough to clash with Ye Shikai head-on, provided neither used weapons.
However, now that Ye Shikai had found the Netherworld King’s Helmet, granting him invisibility and a significant boost in defense, not to mention the Netherworld Blade—something Ye Shikai had not shared with everyone.
The group entered a forest.
In this area, the snow was much heavier than before, with the ground covered in snow up to the knees, which slowed everyone’s progress.
“This annoying snow,” Wang Kai exclaimed as he pulled a leg out from the deep snow, and with a loud shout, concentrated his Inner Strength into both hands, and pushed forward.
The enormous energy blasted away the snow, effectively clearing the path, though this action caused quite a commotion.
Ye Shikai could feel the ground quivering slightly.
“Haha, this way we can move faster,” Wang Kai said with a smug look.
“How strange, this forest is a bit peculiar,” Ye Shikai looked up, unintentionally noticing a few crows overhead.
“What’s so strange about it?” Ji Qian asked.
“Wang Kai made such a racket just now, why haven’t these crows moved at all?” Everyone knows that birds are extremely sensitive, but Ye Shikai sharply observed that these crows were completely motionless.
On closer inspection, these crows were indeed alive.
Wang Kai’s punch should have been enough to scare away all the birds in the forest.
How could these crows ignore it?
