The Genius Wife of the Pampered King of Hell
Chapter 71 - The Fifth Ranking of Yuan Yang Fruit
As soon as those words came out of his mouth, he hated himself for acting so humble as to curry favor. He had done nothing wrong, why would he have to humble himself to admit his mistake!
Nangong Yu's expression slightly eased as he let out a faint laugh, "In the future, if you repeat your mistake, this King will definitely not forgive you easily."
Hexi was afraid of those glowing eyes, they seemed to have another profound meaning in their gazes as they watched her. Without waiting for him to reply, he heard Nangong Yu continue speaking.
"Let's go, there's a distance from here to our destination, we talk while walking."
Nangong Yu's cultivation base had reached a stage where he could fly, yet Hexi was just an ordinary person. Moreover, there were rules in Yan Jing city that prohibited martial artists from large-scale combat, as well as orders that forbade them from disturbing people by flying through the air.
Hence, the two walked side by side as they casually walked out of the tea house towards the street.
Nangong Yu looked tall and handsome, graceful and outstanding, while Hexi looked graceful and refined, a pure and bright youth. The two walking together naturally became a majestic sight, capable of attracting the attention of all living beings.
The passersby who came and went sometimes turned their heads as they walked past them, their astonished gazes clinging tightly to the couple. Even to the point where they would walk directly to the wall, completely unaware of their surroundings.
“If you want to remove the seal on your chaotic dantian, you need a Yang object. In this world, Yang objects are very hard to find, but fortunately, the strength of your seal is gradually weakening. Now that you only need to find the fiery Yang object at its peak, that is enough. The effect of the fifth rank Yuan Yang Fruit[1] was more than enough.”
[1]Yuan Yang– Yuan could mean first, origin, while Yang could mean sun, male.
"Yang Yuan Fruit?"
Nangong Yu looked at her anxious face, and looked left and right before he continued talking to her, "Do you know the Ouyang family?"
Hexi's expression stiffened, and shaking her head, she whispered, "I didn't even know you were the famous King of Hell, how could I know who the Ouyang family was."
Nangong Yu leaned his head closer as he looked at her, saying meaningfully, “In the country of Jin Ling, the Ouyang family, the Nalan family, and the Murong family, are the three influential great families. The master of the Ouyang family, Ouyang Zhixiong, controlled hundreds of thousands of troops and horses, and was awarded the title of mighty General. It can be said that there is no one in Yan Jing city who does not know who he is.”
Hexi became confused under her gaze, and quickly said, "What does all this have to do with me?"
Nangong Yu slightly laughed, “Although fifth rank spiritual plants are not considered to be high level, but because of the special attributes of the Yuan Yang Fruit, they are extremely rare. Coincidentally Ouyang Zhixiong had two Yuan Yang Fruits in his hands.”
Hexi's eyes suddenly brightened, then immediately after, she frowned, "Because of the extremely precious Yuan Fruit, and Ouyang Zhixiong a famous general, he said, how could he easily sell the Yuan Yang Fruit to me?"
Not to mention, he could not afford such a valuable item!
"Of course he won't sell it." Nangong Yu shook his head, “However, Ouyang Zhixiong only has one son, Ouyang Haoxuan. He was considered a genius among his peers, as he was only twenty-six years old, his cultivation base had reached the Gold Core stage. Unfortunately, a year ago, when he was cultivating in the Magical Beast forest, he was attacked, and not only was his cultivation base completely paralyzed, even the muscles and tendons throughout his body were cut off. Ouyang Zhixiong had invited doctors from all over Jin Ling, even seeking help from the Physician Association, but he was still unable to find anyone capable of treating Ouyang Haoxuan's disease.”
“Ouyang Haoxuan was the only direct descendant of the Ouyang family, so if he died, Ouyang Zhixiong's position as the Family master would most likely fall into the hands of distant relatives. Therefore, Ouyang Haoxuan's disease was not limited to his own life and death, but also affected the fate of the entire Ouyang family. You tell me, which is more important, the two insignificant Yuan Yang Fruits, or the fate of the Ouyang family?
