"What's wrong, Feifei? Did sothing happen to your father?" Ye Tian asked, seeing the nervous expression on her face.
"Brother Tian, I'm wearing the family's Communication Jade Pendant. It's only used in the most dire ergencies. There are two pendants in a set. When one person is in danger or faces an urgent situation, they can send a ssage to the other.
My Jade Pendant is glowing red, which ans my father is sending a ssage. He must be in danger or so kind of trouble. He's definitely calling back to help.
But my own strength is too low. I'm sure my father ans for you to rush back. You have a powerful expert protecting you. Maybe you can help our Ye Family get through this crisis.
For my father to resort to this, I'm sure it's related to what happened with Qin Lin. It's highly likely the Qin Family has gone to the Ye Family to cause trouble," Ye Feifei said with a serious expression.
Ye Tian frowned slightly. 'Damn that Qin Family.' "In that case, let's hurry back! With Ye Lin around, we won't have to fear even if all the experts in Lisha City show up. And if Elder Qing can make it back, he could destroy the entire city all by himself."
The words were spoken without ill intent, but they struck a chord with the listener. Nearby, Qin Xiaowan's heart was a mixture of worry and conflict. Her body hadn't recovered yet, so rushing back to Lisha City would be very difficult.
She wanted to stop this war between their families, but in her current state, she was willing but powerless.
"What about Xiaowan? Are we going to leave her here alone?" Ye Feifei asked Ye Tian, glancing at Qin Xiaowan in the distance.
Ye Tian was truly in a difficult position about what to do with Qin Xiaowan. After a mont's thought, he said, "Qin Xiaowan, what are your plans? Do you want to co back with us or stay here?"
"I'll go back with you, but you'll have to carry . You know my condition. I can't travel far on my own!" Qin Xiaowan said helplessly.
A difficult expression appeared on Ye Tian's face, and he didn't know how to respond. "Brother Tian, don't overthink it. You carried her on the way here, so it's only natural you carry her on the way back. Don't hesitate anymore. Ti is short."
Ye Tian was extrely conflicted. When he'd carried Qin Xiaowan away before, she was unconscious. He was so focused on saving her that he never considered how intimate the act might seem.
Holding a beautiful woman in his arms inevitably ant physical contact, and Qin Xiaowan's ample chest made the situation particularly awkward. Now that she was conscious, it was even harder for him to accept.
It wasn't that Ye Tian was afraid of making Ye Feifei angry or jealous. He was afraid that the physical contact with Qin Xiaowan would trigger the Pure Yang Qi in his body, which would be a huge problem.
"Ye Tian, I, Qin Xiaowan, am a well-bred young lady. Not just anyone can get close to . You've already carried and kissed . Do you think a woman who has had a man do such things to her has any other choice?
I'm not demanding that you accept , but I hope you won't push away. There are so things I can't quite explain. It's just... from the first mont I saw you, I had this strange feeling. It was like seeing a long-lost friend, or a lover, once again—so familiar, yet so foreign," Qin Xiaowan said with a completely serious face.
"I... I..." Ye Tian was truly at a loss for words. Qin Xiaowan's feelings mirrored his own for her. 'Perhaps it's just as the War Dragon Remnant Soul inside said—she is very likely to beco my woman. Could this have been destined all along?'
"Brother Tian, stop hesitating! If we get back late, I'm afraid my father will be in danger!" An anxious look appeared on Ye Feifei's face.
Ye Tian struggled internally. If he took Qin Xiaowan with him now, it would be a tacit acknowledgnt of their connection, but he really didn't want to get involved with her at this mont.
But thinking of Ye Feifei's worry, he could only push his feelings aside. "Feifei, you go on ahead. I'll be right behind you!" Ye Tian said, having made his decision.
Ye Feifei knew Ye Tian was faster than her, so she didn't delay, imdiately leaving the cave and rushing toward the Ye Mansion.
"Qin Xiaowan, please excuse my rudeness!" Ye Tian said, his face burning. He truly couldn't bring himself to just pick up a woman he barely knew.
"Ye Tian, I'm not blaming you. In fact, thank you," Qin Xiaowan whispered, a blush creeping across her cheeks.
Ye Tian bent down, swept Qin Xiaowan into his arms, and quickly walked out of the cave. "Ye Lin, let's go!" Ye Tian said to the Eight-winged Golden Scale Python outside the cave.
He then burst into motion, rushing toward the Ye Mansion. Ye Tian directly used the Dragon Form Hundred Transformations, and his incredible speed shocked Qin Xiaowan, making her admire him even more.
The wind WHOOSHED past their ears. As they sped along, the oncoming breeze would occasionally sweep Qin Xiaowan's hair across Ye Tian's face, carrying a faint, indescribable fragrance.
Throughout the journey, Qin Xiaowan kept her arms wrapped around Ye Tian's neck, an intimate gesture. Her ample chest was pressed firmly against his, the contact so close they could even hear each other's heartbeats.
Ye Tian didn't dare let his mind wander. Although he could feel the softness pressing against him from ti to ti, he did his best to keep his heart calm. Otherwise, if his Pure Yang Qi flared up, he wouldn't be rushing back to save Ye Weitian, but to save himself.
While Ye Tian and Ye Feifei were rushing back, the mbers of the Ye and Qin families were locked in a desperate battle. By now, many had been seriously injured. Blood was everywhere, the ground was a total ss, and the air was filled with a horrifying cacophony of shouts and roars.
The fight between Ye Weitian and Qin Wushuang was the most intense of all. Both n were already wounded, but each was intent on killing the other, paying no mind to their own injuries.
"Ye Weitian, you really are a fool! To treat the Ye Family's centuries-old foundation as a joke all for the sake of a re Outer Disciple... you brought this upon yourself today!" Qin Wushuang taunted.
"Qin Wushuang, you don't need to worry about the Ye Family's affairs! Ye Tian is my son-in-law, the genius of my Ye Family. So what if I risk the entire family for him? Your Qin Family, on the other hand, has no such talent. Aren't you jealous? To risk your family's foundation for that good-for-nothing son of yours... now that is the height of stupidity," Ye Weitian retorted.
"You've gone too far! Today, I'll let you witness my true power!" Enraged by Ye Weitian's words, Qin Wushuang's killing intent soared in an instant.
The onlookers had long since retreated several hundred ters away. So had even gone into hiding. Getting caught in the crossfire would be a most unwise decision.
"Heh, as if I don't know exactly what you're made of. Go on then, let see this 'true power' of yours," Ye Weitian said with a disdainful look, though he remained extrely cautious on the inside.
Just then, two figures shot toward them at high speed. It was none other than Ye Feifei and Ye Tian. But when the pair appeared before Qin Wushuang and Ye Weitian, both n's eyes went wide in shock.
