The Greatest Disciple of the Evil Sect

Chapter 278: Chapter 278- Tang Xun’er (2)

Although the sharp tongue of the demonic spirit quite annoyed him, he cannot say that he disliked the girl. Her attitude was very much to his liking and at the same time, it also hinted at her upbringing.

Yang Chen guessed that she was some pampered princess of some influential clan and had yet to learn about the ways of the world.

In any case, this worked perfectly for his case. With such a gullible prey it won’t be tough for him to build a close relationship with her.

"Ah, don’t worry, we won’t reveal your secret. Doing so would be ungrateful to you, our benefactor who helped us escape the clutches of those evil men"

After chiding the demonic spirit, the girl turned to Yang Chen and looked at him intently.

"It is rumoured that you managed to escape from their Hall Master of the Yan Clan who is a Battle Overlord realm practitioner. Is the rumours really true? Some even say you managed to injure him. Really, how did you do it?"

Her sudden question took him by surprise. If it was him in her place, he would be wary of an individual suddenly helping him. However, the girl in front of him had practically dropped all guards against him.

Was it just his imagination or did she have enough faith in the demonic beast next to her to protect her from any kind of situation?

Whatever the case was, one thing was clear. The identity of the girl wasn’t ordinary.

To be able to find out information that the Yan clan would no doubt try to suppress with all their influence, only a faction that was on par with or stronger than the Yan clan would be able to do that.

"Ah, look at my manners, I didn’t even introduce myself even though you risked putting yourself in danger and revealed your identity to us"

The girl after hesitating for a while, also removed the hood covering her face. Immediately, a breathtakingly beautiful face that was capable of even dimming everything in the surrounding, appeared in front of his eyes.

That beautiful contour that couldn’t be any more perfect, those delicate arching eyebrows that looked like two crescent moons, that flawless and impeccable skin and features that seemed like it was made from all the essence of the world.

The girl was that devastatingly beautiful. Even Yang Chen was mesmerised for a good long while even though he had seen her face before.

After tearing his eyes away from her after much difficulty, he hurriedly composed himself. He had to admit that he had never seen a girl this beautiful.

No wonder she covered herself like that, it was because her beauty was powerful enough to attract all kinds of needless troubles towards her.

"Ahem, you are?"

The beauty of the girl aside, he really had no clue who she was. It was no help even if the girl showed him her face.

"You don’t recognise me?"

This time, it was the girl’s turn to be surprised. Usually, whenever she showed her appearance to someone, they would react either by showing naked lust towards her or be struck by awe and fear at her identity.

Yet this was the first time she met a person who did not show any aforementioned emotions, he did not even recognise her.

Even the demonic spirit next to her was surprised. It looked at Yang Chen carefully before determining that he really wasn’t lying.

"To think that there really is someone who doesn’t know about her in this empire" it uttered to itself.

"I see, so you don’t know me huh" After her initial shock resided, the eyes of the girl became somewhat strange. After a while, she took a deep breath and replied to him while avoiding eye contact.

"I am Tang Xun’er, direct disciple of the Imperial Star Palace".

Yang Chen nodded his head. Although he could tell that the girl was hiding something, he did not probe too deep.

"That’s right, I came here to give you this. Earlier when you bumped into me, you dropped this" Yang Chen extended his hand and handed out the hairpin he found earlier.

"This!!"

Seeing the jade blue hairpin on his palm, the girl’s eyes widened. The next second, she extended her hand and quickly grabbed the hairpin and hugged it close to her chest.

"I didn’t even realise that I dropped it. You... this... I can’t explain how grateful I am for you returning this to me. This hairpin is extremely important to me. Thank you, thank you very much"

The girl; no, Tang Xun’er deeply bowed her head and thanked. Her gratitude was several times more genuine and sincere than when he saved her from the trio.

"Haa, brat you really did us a favour there... thank you. You don’t know how important that thing is to her" Even Yun the demonic spirit who possessed quite a sharp tongue, thanked him.

Yang Chen nodded his head, feeling a little uncomfortable from their gratitude. Truth be told, he previously had the intention of hoarding this item. As such, their sincerity felt like needles prickling his body.

"It’s just something I found on the ground. And besides, she wouldn’t have lost it if she hadn’t bumped into me"

To make a good impression on her for his plan, he modestly shook his head and asked her to raise her head up.

"Now then, since those people are gone and I have returned your possession to you, I will take my leave too" Saying that Yang Chen just turned around when...

"Ah, please wait" Tang Xun’er stopped him. She stared at the ground intently for a while before making up her mind.

"You are a benefactor of mine who has helped me not once but twice. How can I let you leave just like that? If I did that, wouldn’t that make me ungrateful?".

Her beautiful shimmering eyes stared at him as she took out her space ring and extended it towards him.
