"I got a bit lost, it took quite a while to find my way back."
Le Yao tried hard to calm her heaving chest, forcing a smile that looked incredibly awkward on her sowhat pale face.
"Lost? No way, with your shrewdness, could you really forget the way?"
Ye Haochuan abruptly lifted his head, his face filled with surprise as he replied.
"Yeah, there’s just so much here, and I was in a hurry to find a ship, so I didn’t pay attention to the road."
Seeing Ye Haochuan looking at her, Le Yao tried even harder to cover it up.
Sothing’s wrong, definitely sothing’s up, what exactly did this girl do?
Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but think, maintaining a nonchalant appearance, he said, "So, did you find a ship? If not, what do we do tonight?"
"No, all the ships have been rented out, I’ll just sleep at this inn tonight."
Le Yao shook her head, then turned and walked towards the inn nearby, saying as she went, "I sold the weapons of those three guys and got tens of thousands of red crystals."
"Tens of thousands of red crystals? Damn, are those guys’ weapons really worth that much?"
When Ye Haochuan heard this, his eyes imdiately popped wide open. However, he also knew that those red crystals were their joint wealth, and Le Yao must have taken the lion’s share.
"Yes, mainly that soft sword is quite valuable."
Le Yao in a very dispirited manner, walked forward slowly. Even upon hearing Ye Haochuan’s words, she only answered weakly a few tis, lacking her usual vitality.
Should I ask?
Ye Haochuan followed behind Le Yao, looking at her starkly different deanor, a flash of light crossed his eyes, he was about to say sothing.
"Co on, co on, let’s keep drinking, hahaha, cheers!"
At this mont, two drunken cultivators, supporting each other, walked past Ye Haochuan and Le Yao not far away, stumbling along in an S-shaped path, clearly just two drunkards.
They kept pouring the fine wine into their mouths as they walked, the aroma was very rich, Ye Haochuan knew instantly this wine was from the Legendary Brewery.
However, the wine these two drunkards were drinking was not as good in quality as the one Ye Haochuan previously drank, evidently, these two were not wealthy fellows.
When the two passed not far from the entrance of the inn, one suddenly felt a turmoil in his stomach. Then, he opened his mouth wide, spewing out a mixture of gastric acid, at chunks, vegetable leaves, and wine.
Le Yao seed to have a lot on her mind, but didn’t notice the scene, continuing to walk towards the inn blankly with vacant eyes, lost in thought.
"Damn, Le Yao, step back...!"
Ye Haochuan saw this scene, and the words rolling to the tip of his tongue couldn’t co out, he reached out and pulled at Le Yao’s clothes, pulling her back forcefully.
With this pull, Le Yao was forced to take several steps back, barely avoiding the misfortune of being sullied by the foul substance.
Yet, unexpectedly, a few drops of filth splattered from the ground onto Le Yao’s shoes with uncanny precision, and imdiately, a foul sll emanated from her shoe surface.
Le Yao’s face sank imdiately, her vacant eyes regained focus in an instant, she was about to shout in anger, her brows slightly knitted.
"Huh, Xiao Cui’er? Why am I still here, didn’t I go ho?"
That man, having finished vomiting, happened to lift his head and caught sight of Le Yao with knitted brows.
"What nonsense are you talking about? We... we’ve already left... how could we still see Xiao... Cui’er?"
The man’s companion stopped half-eyed due to the vomiting.
Upon hearing his companion’s words, he muttered, "You didn’t consider... without tens or hundreds of red crystals... how... how Xiao Cui’er would co out with you..."
"Damn... Xiao Cui’er must have taken a liking to you, how... how could she be following us?"
Before he finished talking, he suddenly saw Le Yao standing in front of them, his drunken eyes widened abruptly.
"Haha, I told you... Xiao Cui’er likes ... you didn’t believe... haha... now you believe?"
The man struggled to get up, his posture swung as he staggered towards Le Yao, clearly intending to hug her.
Haha, great opportunity!
Ye Haochuan saw this scene, slowed down his pace. Based on past experience, Le Yao, this mischievous girl, would definitely pull him in as a shield.
Today, observing Le Yao felt strangely off to Ye Haochuan, therefore he thought it’d be best to let these two drunkards go ahead, test her, see how she would respond.
Anyway, these drunken fellows weren’t all that strong, just at the Nascent Soul Peak level, with Le Yao’s Immortal Transformation Stage strength, she could completely crush them.
Of course, they were in Yanjiang Town now, random killing was not permitted, but for an Immortal Transformation Stage cultivator to discipline Nascent Soul cultivators who offended her, no one would say anything.
Le Yao first reached out her hand, preparing to seriously teach these two a lesson, then her gaze flickered subtly, withdrawing her hand.
"Scram!"
Her aura exploded as she pulled back her palm, engulfing the two drunkards, that vast, chilling aura instantly sobered both half from their drunkenness.
"I... I’m... sorry..."
The two woke up in shock, realizing they inadvertantly offended an Immortal Transformation Realm cultivator, cold sweat flowed like a creek from their bodies.
"Humph!"
Le Yao threw them a cold glance, then bypassed them and strode into the inn, no longer paying them any heed.
Seeing that Le Yao no longer bothered with them, the two exchanged a glance, then mustered their strength, and fled the scene with all their might.
"Strange? Didn’t strike?"
Ye Haochuan watched Le Yao thoughtfully, knowing her as well as he did, she wouldn’t have let them off so easily.
This girl is definitely hiding sothing from !
Ye Haochuan thought to himself, taking a closer look at Le Yao.
Subsequently, Ye Haochuan headed quickly into the inn, finding that Le Yao had already "attentively" arranged the rooms, though theirs were separated by several others.
Ye Haochuan didn’t point it out, the two each went to their own rooms.
Yet, instead of washing up to rest upon returning to his room, Ye Haochuan activated his Heavenly Eye, silently watching Le Yao’s every move.
Le Yao entered her room, then began ditating, neither washing up nor changing or sleeping, leaving Ye Haochuan feeling less "entertained".
However, as he felt "disappointed," a foreboding grew within him...
Tonight, there’s bound to be sothing happening.
