Chapter 84 – The Only Possible...


"Very? What did Senior Sister say, right? ”Xia Yuanba whose heart was panicking, shouted in excitement as her eyes suddenly brightened after hearing Lan Xueruo's words. It was as if he was suddenly grasping a soul-saving straw amidst his despair.


“When Senior Brother lied to you before. "Lan Xueruo said with a faint smile:" Fortunately Palace Head Qin did not immediately hand you over, but instead struggled for another ten days. Otherwise, even if I had a way, this was basically impossible to do in a limited time. ”


"That's great!" Xia Yuanba's face reddened red. He then injured his internal injuries under excitement, which caused him to grimace with pain.


Yun Che looked at Lan Xueruo with a shocked expression for a long time, and hesitantly smiled: "Senior sister Xueruo, to be so compassionate to me, don't say … You've fallen in love with me? Although I know that my appearance can be considered perfect when it comes to men and I also really like Senior Sister Xueruo, but in the end, I am already a married man. Did Senior Brother Xueruo really not mind in the slightest? ”


“I object to your head!” Lan Xueruo did not know whether to laugh or cry, and pouted her charming lips: “I, Lan Xueruo, will no doubt be uninterested in a younger brother than me, no doubt, and one who even got married! As for why I helped you, it was only because I was your Senior Sister, and was only comfortable because it was all along the way. ”


"Mhm mhm !!" Xia Yuanba nodded, and sincerely said: "Senior sister Xueruo has always been like this. No matter to whom, he would all be extremely gentle and caring. When I had just entered the New Moon Profound Palace, I did not know anyone around me at all. Moreover, ever since I entered First Class with only my miniscule strength, I have encountered a lot of criticism and ridicule. This is all thanks to Senior Sister Xueruo, who cares deeply for me. Senior Sister Xueruo, is the most gentle and kind person I have ever met. ”


Every time Xia Yuanba mentioned Lan Xueruo, her eyes would always shine and her face would be filled with fondness and admiration; it was as if she really thought of her as a goddess-like character. However, Lan Xueruo did possess such gentle, friendly nature, temperament, and charisma.


"That's for sure . "Yun Che also nodded in deep thought:" Senior Brother Xueruo is so beautiful, she must be a heaven-changing angel, which is why she is so kind and gentle, do you honestly not consider someone younger than you who is married? In fact, younger married men have many benefits that older bachelor men will never have, for example … "


Lan Xueruo really could not continue listening anymore, and spoke while faking a stern face: "In ten days, do you want to return to Blue Wind Imperial City with me or not?"


"Yes yes yes! Sure was! ”Before Yun Che even replied, Xia Yuanba frantically nodded in agreement, for fear that Lan Xueruo would return to her words. Originally, Xia Yuanba was very worried that Yun Che had no way of escaping this calamity. Lan Xueruo's offer, was no different from the pleasant surprise that fell from the sky; no matter what she said, she had to grasp this opportunity tightly.


However, Yun Che instead thought for a moment, and said somewhat cautiously, "Senior Brother, I really appreciate your kind thoughts. However, for this matter, what I have hurt is the Main Sect of Xiao Sect. If Senior Brother takes me away, and they insist on investigating and holding you accountable…. I don't want to involve Senior Sister, and Senior Sister's family. ”


Lan Xueruo gently smiled and said, "At least you have a guilty conscience, and really know how to worry for the sake of Big Brother. However, since I dare to help you escape from New Moon City, I naturally have enough guarantees not to ignite a fire on myself. You can really feel comfortable about this; I'm not stupid to the point of joking with me and my family life. ”


"Although the people of Xiao Sect left, there should still be people watching the gate. If you leave, you may fall directly into their hands. So, in these few days, you should earnestly stay in the Profound Yang Palace and not go anywhere else at all. Once my family arrives, I will immediately take you and leave. After arriving at Blue Wind Imperial City, it should have been completely safe. ”


Lan Xueruo spoke in a very definite tone, and was also relaxed; it was clear that she wanted to make Yun Che feel as comfortable as possible. Yun Che also did not hesitate anymore, and gratefully said, "Then Senior Brother, when the time comes, everything will be on your shoulders. After this disaster has passed, I will definitely pay for the grace of saving Senior Sister's life. ”


Lan Xueruo's pink lips slightly curved upwards, and her brows curved into two soft crescent moons: "If you want to pay Senior Sister, it's her, then stay safe here and protect your own life. The day you pay me will only come if you're still alive. ”


"M N'S! I will follow Senior Sister's words. "Yun Che nodded firmly. Then, his tone suddenly changed when he asked: "Senior Brother, that ... do you have the profound core of a deep savage beast? The low level is fine. And if you don't have it, where can I find it in the Profound Yang Palace? ”


"The Deep Thing? What do you need the Profound Core for? ”Ask Lan Xueruo.


“That's a secret for now. Don't tell Senior Brother to really have it? ”Seeing Lan Xueruo's expression, Yun Che's eyes brightened.


For a long time, Lan Xueruo felt about the space within the spatial ring on her slender finger, and then took out a dim-colored round bead: a: “I only have one of the lowest grade Nascent Profound Core in hand. I got it some time ago from Scarlet Drill Lizard. However, Palace Head Qin should have some Extremely Real Profound Beast Core. If you need it, I'll … "


“Nearly Profound Core is enough. '' Yun Che stretched out his hand and took out the Profound Nascent from Lan Xueruo's hand. His heart settled instantly.


Ordinary beasts had no Profound Core within their bodies. Starting from Nastent Profound Beings, the Profound Core would exist in all mature Profound Beings, similar to the core of the Profound Veins within the human body. Nascent Profound Core was the easiest to obtain from all Profound Core, and their prices were also the lowest; they were usually around a dozen to several hundred Yellow Profound Coins. However, with the quality of each higher rank, the price would increase manifold. In the Blue Wind Empire, every single Earth Profound Core could be sold for an astronomical price. At the Sky Profound rank, they would be priceless treasures. And as for the Emperor Profound Cores, they were basically considered things from legends.


During his trip to New Moon City, Yun Che had indeed obtained some newborn Profound Core. However, he had used all of them to synthesize high-level Profound Recovery Pellets. He had been carrying pig iron on his back all the way, so the Great Recovery Pellet was almost treated as food.


“Junior Brother Yun, you should also be exhausted today, so you should rest early. You don't have to think about anything else. With Palace Head Qin here, the Xiao Sect will not do anything rash in these ten days. As long as these ten days pass, I can truly guarantee your safety. ”


“I understand, Senior Brother .. Senior Brother should rest early as well. ”


Lan Xueruo carried a wind of fragrant orchids as she set off at a slow pace, and left Yun Che immersed in her thoughts.


"Yuanba, are you related to Senior Sister Xueruo?" Yun Che asked coldly.


"No. Why would my brother-in-law ask that? ”Xia Yuanba rubs her head.


"Then, have you or any of your family members ever saved Senior Sister Xueruo or her family members before?"


“It didn't either! I've never even seen his relatives before. Moreover, with my low profound strength, there is no way I can save Senior Sister Xueruo. There was even little need to talk about my family members. ”


“Then it was a bit strange. "Yun Che pondered deeply as he rubbed his chin with his right hand:" We were not related in any way and we were just having some chatter; why would he want to help me for no reason or reason? "


"Oh! You're talking about it. Brother-in-law, you are too seriously thinking about it; I've said this before, Senior Brother Xueruo is kind to someone. When I first arrived at the New Moon Profound Palace, I was also not related to him in any way but he helped and took care of me a lot. Every older brother and sister in Yang Palace really liked him very much. ”


“No, it's different. "Yun Che, however, shook his head and said with a serious expression:" He helps you, acceptable as his nature, and I wouldn't find it strange. However, to take me and escape New Moon City is a completely different matter! He clearly understood that the matter I brought with me had involved the Main Sect of Xiao Sect …. Although I don't feel too pleasant towards the people of Xiao Sect, I can't help but admit that they have a great influence that can cover the skies of the Blue Wind Empire with one hand. How many people in the entire empire could remain calm when they heard the two words "Xiao Sect"! And how many would dare to offend the Xiao Sect? And how many, would dare to dare to risk getting involved, and help someone who offended someone from the Xiao Sect, escape their punishment? "


Xia Yuanba opened his mouth, but was speechless.


“If it was a friendship between life and death, this would be understandable. However, I only knew him for one day, and we rarely spoke to each other; there was no mercy or hatred between us, he said, yet he wanted to dare to take such a big risk to take me out of New Moon City. This is too weird. ”


“Also…. Yuanba, you guys are in the same class. Have you heard him mention about returning to Blue Wind Imperial City these few days? Have you seen those signs recently? "Ask Yun Che.


Xia Yuanba became stunned. Then, he carefully thought about it and shook his head, “I guess not. But there should be no need for him to tell us in advance that he is going home. ”


“Never said a word about returning to the Imperial City before, yet now he suddenly wants to return after ten days; while the time that Palace Head Qin obtained for me, is, also coincidentally exactly ten days …. It's too coincidental. "Yun Che muttered.


Hearing what Yun Che said, Xia Yuanba also started to feel something strange. He naturally knew the strength of the Xiao Sect. To dare face the great risk of provoking the Xiao Sect to save someone he only knew a day, which had nothing to do with him; thinking about it like this, it was indeed too strange. Because even if there was a hint of carelessness, it would be a total annihilation disaster! He scratched his scalp, and fiercely shook his head, “No, no! Senior Sister Xueruo was a kind person, it was impossible for her to have a clear motive towards Brother-in-law. Besides ... Besides brother-in-law is not a rich man, or even some kind of master; if we say that he wants to save you for some purpose, what is he even aiming for? ”


“This is also the strangest place in my opinion. '' Yun Che looked up, stretched out his hand and touched his face, and said in a low voice, So .. When I asked Senior Sister, 'Don't tell me, you're in love with me' earlier ... I really wasn't kidding. . To have a girl do something so far for a man she had just met, the only possibility I could think of, was that Senior Sister Xueruo, towards me…. Mn, it's love at first sight. ”


"Whaa !?" Xia Yuanba's legs were limp, and he almost kneeled in front of Yun Che in shock.


“First of all, I have no influence; second, I have no power; third, I do not even have the most vulgar of all things, money. Rather than that, I am bringing havoc upon myself. Then, the only thing Senior Sister Xueruo craves from me is my beauty. A woman is a kind of sentimental creature; if she falls in love with a man, it is possible for her to do anything, no matter how excessive and crazy. To dare to face such a huge risk and save me, that would be perfectly normal. ”


"Buswi …. As expected, regardless of location, this era of appearance could not be changed. Not only is a handsome face a powerful type of capital, it can sometimes even save a person's life. '' Yun Che said as he pinched his cheek. It was unknown what he was thinking as he grinned and suddenly burst into laughter.


No matter how Xiao Yuanba looked at Yun Che's smile, he could still see some sort of lewd intent mixed in. Her eyes were wide open as she stared and stuttered: "Mom .. Bu. But .. Senior Brother is so beautiful, so gentle, and there are so many people who love it! How could she ... Senior Sister Xueruo also said earlier, that she had absolutely no interest in anyone younger than her and who was also married. This …. It's…"


Yun Che rolled his eyes at her, and casually replied: "Yuanba, you really don't understand women. A woman is a creature who likes to contradict herself. If he says that he does not like younger people, it means that he really likes someone younger than him. If he says that he does not like someone who is married, it means …. Uhh …. "Even Yun Che himself felt that this explanation was a bit unreasonable, but he had to bite the bullet and continue: 'But:


“... Although this talisman may be a little special, it is possible that a married man is just his type. ”


“~! @ # ¥% ....” Xia Yuanba panics: “That's impossible! When Senior Sister Xueruo was here just a moment ago, why didn't brother-in-law just ask? ”


"Can't ask. '' Yun Che shook his finger before Xia Yuanba's eyes and spoke seriously: Men don't like women who are too smart, and women don't like men who are too smart either. If I asked, it would really ruin the fun. "After speaking here, a typical strange light entered Yun Che's eyes:" My previous guess was the only possibility I could think of at that moment, so I did too, too, I don't know if it's right or wrong. But what was certain was that he wanted to capture me and turn me into his 'prey. And I… . "The corner of Yun Che's mouth curled up:" Same! What happens next, is determined by who succeeds first! If he wins, then I will do what he wants. If he loses, hehehehe …. ”


Xia Yuanba: “…. ”
