_1 ng Hanshan handed Lin Chen over to ng Zhan and then left.
“Stick with him, do as you’re told.
It’s in your best interest.
Otherwise, your life is at risk.”
Lin Chen nodded obediently, lowered his head, seemingly out of a fear of direct eye contact.
But in actuality, he was afraid that the other party might spot any discrepancy in his eyes.
Although he appeared frightened on the surface, in reality, he wasn’t afraid at all.
“Co with .”
ng Zhan was polite to ng Hanshan, but he didn’t show any good disposition for Lin Chen.
After a low growl, he led the way.
Lin Chen followed ng Zhan, looking at his unprotected back, secretly pondering.
If he fired a Black Dragon Wave at him, wouldn’t this guy probably vanish without a trace?
ng Zhan led Lin Chen through the city to the base of the waterfall that fell from the Nine Heavens.
In front of the waterfall were myriad pavilions.
Most of these buildings were two stories high and although not very large, each was exquisitely designed and had beautiful surroundings which were shrouded in mist that created a fairyland-like atmosphere.
“Anything the dignitary asks you, respond honestly.
Do not hide anything.”
Lin Chen quietly agreed, “Yes.”
ng Zhan warned, “Rember, you’re a captive now, a slave.
If you talk nonsense, I’ll kill you on the spot.
No one can save you here!”
“Yes.”
Only after observing Lin Chen for a while did ng Zhan guide him toward the pavilion closest to the waterfall – the most advantageous location with the most beautiful view.
At the entrance of the pavilion, two guards stopped ng Zhan.
ng Zhan said politely, “Miss ng wanted to chat with soone from the Human Clan, just as we happened to capture a few humans.
I’ve brought one for her.”
After passing on the ssage, the guard replied, “You may leave the human and go.”
Anger flashed in ng Zhan’s eyes.
After all, he was the son of the tribe’s chief and regarded himself as the host here.
Although ng Ke was the beloved granddaughter of the Clan Chief, was her treatnt of him a bit too overbearing on his own turf?
ng Zhan raised his voice, “ng Zhan, requesting to see Miss ng.”
The guard frowned in annoyance, ready to berate him, but then a crisp, lazy woman’s voice ca from inside the house.
“Co in.”
ng Zhan breathed a sigh of relief.
If he was not even granted a private eting, he would surely have no chance at all.
ng Zhan collected himself and led Lin Chen into the pavilion.
The ground floor had a spacious living room.
Beyond that, there was a fair-sized viewing platform directly facing the waterfall.
On the platform was a soft chair, with a beautiful young woman sitting on it, showing undisguised arrogance between her brows.
ng Zhan bowed, “Miss ng!”
ng Ke’s eyes scanned ng Zhan before shifting to Lin Chen, halting for a mont.
“What brings you to see ?”
With a smile, ng Zhan said, “As a host, I bear responsibility in making sure Miss ng is well taken care of during her stay.
I just wanted to know if there’s anything you need, so I can arrange it.”
ng Ke calmly replied, “I appreciate your concern.
I’m getting along just fine, and if I need anything, I’ll surely let you know.”
ng Ke’s indifference left ng Zhan at a loss for words.
Biting back his disappointnt, he decided to be direct.
“Miss ng, beyond our Rock Tribe lies the Dragon Valley, which is filled with beautiful scenes.
If you don’t mind, I can act as a guide and take you around.”
With his head down, Lin Chen listened to ng Zhan’s words and almost burst into laughter.
This approach to inviting a girl out was so old.
Why didn’t he just say his cat could do backflips?
Lin Chen suppressed his laughter, not daring to reveal even the slightest hint of amusent.
But even so, he unintentionally attracted ng Ke’s attention.
After all, even though Lin Chen was standing beside ng Zhan, he was directly in ng Ke’s line of sight.
ng Ke slightly squinted her eyes and turned her gaze back to ng Zhan, “Young Master ng, I’m truly touched by your concern, but I’m quite lazy, and I don’t enjoy sightseeing.
So, you needn’t trouble yourself.”
ng Zhan was rejected without any rcy.
He could hardly hide his frustration.
“No trouble at all, it would be my pleasure.”
ng Ke looked at ng Zhan and after a brief silence, she opened her mouth, “Young Master ng, I’ve heard so rumors, but I’m here rely seeking the Spirit Vein for cultivation.
Nothing more.”
A visible disappointnt clouded ng Zhan’s eyes.
ng Ke’s words amounted to a clear rejection.
In other words, she was not interested in him.
She advised him not to harbor any illusions.
She ca here solely for cultivation, nothing else mattered.
Despite his disappointnt, ng Zhan managed to act the part of the host, “All right, Miss ng, I understand.
I won’t disturb you any longer.
As for the Spirit Vein, we’re currently negotiating with the Hundred Calamities Sect.
Once the negotiation is completed, I’ll notify you promptly.”
ng Ke smiled, “Thank you!”
ng Ke’s smile was quite captivating, but ng Zhan knew it was rely a polite gesture, having nothing to do with him.
ng Zhan pointed to Lin Chen, “This human was recently captured by our tribe, and I brought him here…”
