After hanging up Cat's call, Ye Qiu contacted Zhao Chunxue, urging her to head to the Dongfang Family imdiately.
Around eight in the evening, the two arrived one after another and found Ye Qiu.
After exchanging a few words with them and arranging accommodations, Ye Qiu went to the Dongfang Family's mountain alone.
Although Ye Qiu seed indifferent to Dongfang Mo's ntion of the hot spring, he had kept it in mind. He didn't think it would greatly enhance his strength, but he wanted to check it out, hoping for a surprise.
In less than two minutes, Ye Qiu found the hot spring in the mountain.
Seeing the steaming hot spring, he indeed felt surprised…
This hot spring was truly powerful.
It wasn't an ordinary bathing hot spring. It was over a thousand square ters and looked like a small lake…
The hot spring was covered with white mist, and the space around it had slight ripples, making Ye Qiu's eyes light up.
It was indeed no ordinary hot spring!
Inside the hot spring, there was a gentle power that could be absorbed to enhance one's strength.
However, the power was too weak to be of much use to the likes of Cat, let alone Ye Qiu, who could almost ignore it.
Still, Ye Qiu didn't give up, removing his clothes and jumping into the hot spring.
"This hot spring is quite comfortable…"
Ye Qiu leaned against the edge, sighed with satisfaction, and then closed his eyes for a nap.
After imrsing himself in the hot spring, he discovered that it wasn't entirely useless to him. At least soaking here was comfortable and could cleanse impurities, gradually purifying his body's power.
While Ye Qiu was resting in the hot spring, elsewhere.
Not far from the hot spring, near the cave next to the Dongfang Family's Secret Realm.
Bang!
Suddenly, a powerful force erupted from the cave, causing the surrounding air to tremble.
Accompanied by this force, a girl wearing a green long dress walked out.
The girl looked about twenty-three or twenty-four years old, very beautiful, with a faint smile on her lips. Her charming appearance could enchant every man under the sun.
This girl was the Dongfang Family's treasure, as Dongfang Mo had ntioned, the first among the young generation of the Dongfang Family, Dongfang Qing!
"Hmm… so tired…"
Dongfang Qing stretched, furrowing her brows slightly, looking a little weary. Then a playful smile blood on her face, and she excitedly muttered, "After three months of seclusion, I've finally reached Half-Step Divinity Transformation. It's worth the exhaustion!"
"I want to soak in the hot spring and have a good rest!"
Without lingering too much, Dongfang Qing's figure flashed, and she soon arrived by the hot spring.
The hot spring was large, and since it was dark, she didn't see Ye Qiu soaking leisurely in it.
Knowing that this area was a Dongfang Family forbidden area, even elders needed to seek permission from the clan leader to enter. Dongfang Qing wasn't too cautious. She only glanced around briefly before taking off her clothes and jumping into the hot spring.
"Wow… so comfortable!"
Dongfang Qing looked utterly relaxed, leaning against the edge for a while before diving her head into the hot spring, swimming freely like a joyful fish.
Dongfang Qing often played in this hot spring. Diving and swimming here was one of her favorite activities.
Gradually swimming through every corner of the hot spring gave her a sense of accomplishnt.
This ti, like before, Dongfang Qing glided slowly along the hot spring's edge.
However, after swimming for a bit, she suddenly froze, her gaze locked onto a long object not far away, frowning with a hint of disgust.
"How could this be? This hot spring has always been clean. Why is there a big bug today…"
Muttering in confusion, Dongfang Qing accelerated and soon swam to the side of the big bug. Her right hand shot out, grabbing the bug and pulling hard.
"What the hell!"
Almost simultaneously, an utterly relaxed Ye Qiu lying in the hot spring couldn't help but shout, instinctively thrusting his right arm into the hot spring, grabbing a tangled mass, and yanking it out.
"Ah!!!"
Suddenly being pulled up by her hair, Dongfang Qing was startled and scread, slapping instinctively and landing a blow on Ye Qiu's face with a crisp 'smack'.
"I…"
Ye Qiu was speechless. He never expected that just soaking in a hot spring would end up pulling a woman out, especially one with such wickedness, bent on destroying another's lifeline before even eting face to face.
"You…"
Dongfang Qing was also stunned, equally not expecting to see a man in what was almost her private hot spring!
Moreover, he was a particularly ruthless man, who upon making contact, grabbed her hair and lifted her up!
It took her a while to regain her composure. She slapped Ye Qiu's hand, breaking free, then glared at Ye Qiu with fiery anger, demanding, "Who are you? Why are you in my hot spring? Why did you handle so roughly?"
"Do you… want to die!!!"
The more Dongfang Qing thought about it, the angrier she beca. Her whole body trembled with rage!
As the Dongfang Family's prodigy and beloved treasure, when had she ever been treated like this?
The private hot spring being used by soone else was one thing, but being pulled by her hair and lifted was another.
Outrageous!
Absolutely outrageous!
"Why I'm here is another matter!" Ye Qiu frowned slightly, speaking coldly: "As for why I handled you so roughly, that's a question I'd like to ask you—why did you almost ruin my future with your first move!"
Ye Qiu was genuinely a bit angry.
What happened was just too sudden. If it weren't for his quick reaction, his future might have really been ruined.
Ye Qiu couldn't imagine how such a seemingly innocent girl could be so ruthless, so eager? Grabbing that place with a fierce pull, like pulling a carrot!
"Ruined your… future?"
Dongfang Qing was bewildered, stunned for several seconds, then her face flushed red as if afla.
A big bug?
Future?
The big bug I grabbed was, was that place.
Thinking of this, a look of grievance ca over Dongfang Qing's face, feeling like her first experience had been inexplicably given to a stranger, an enormous injustice.
"You, you bastard…"
Dongfang Qing gnashed her teeth, wanting nothing more than to tear Ye Qiu into pieces. But as she stared at Ye Qiu, her face hardened again.
She was collapsing.
Completely collapsing.
Because, just monts ago, she realized that she had been, completely naked… arguing with a stranger!
