488: Chapter 487: Then Shouldn’t I Choose Carefully?
At that moment, Huo Mengyao laughed and said, “Qingyin, it’s rare to hear you praise him.
Usually, I always hear you scolding him.
Hearing you praise him now, I’m really not used to it.”
“He deserves the scolding—what can I say if he’s so despicable and shameless?” Fan Qingyin hummed.
“But, that being said, the guy does have some skills.
Sister Mengyao, you better train him well in the future, or you’ll have a hard time.”
Ye Haochuan was speechless inside.
Do I really look so useless that I need you women to train me?
I’d be the one training you women, more like!
Huo Mengyao laughed, “Even Xiao Haimei, the young mistress of the Xiao Family, couldn’t be trained properly by me, so how could I train him?
If you ask me, you’re best friends with the Xiao Family’s young mistress and, from the sound of it, she doesn’t mind sharing a husband with you, so why not just join in and help us train him together?”
Ye Haochuan’s eyelid twitched at the sound of it.
Mengyao girl, don’t you get your big brother in trouble, o!
Fan Qingyin is not one to mess with.
If she gets involved, wouldn’t that turn my harem into complete chaos?
Hearing Huo Mengyao’s jest, Fan Qingyin’s cheeks flushed red, and she said, “Sister Mengyao, please spare me.
Even if he were the last man on earth, I would not consider him as my cultivation partner.
He’s just too detestable.”
Damn, this girl is ruthless!
Preferring to stay single rather than consider me!
Thinking this, he couldn’t help but smile wryly and strode inside.
Looking at the two women with faces full of surprise, he chuckled and said to Fan Qingyin, “Junior Sister Fan, when you talk badly about me, can you not exaggerate so much, thinking it’s like frying vegetables?”
This jerk, he actually eavesdropped on us talking!
And how did he sneak in here?
Seriously, how did Xu Yue’er keep watch?
As Fan Qingyin dwelled on it, she got even more infuriated.
“How did you get in here?
You eavesdropped on our conversation!”
“Hehe, this place isn’t your home.
Is climbing a wall so hard?
Besides, if you’re whispering, shouldn’t you keep your voices down?
Who’s to blame here?” Ye Haochuan laughed.
you’re making excuses!” Fan Qingyin snapped angrily.
“Making excuses?” Ye Haochuan shook his head, not taking up her cue, and chuckled, “Just now I heard you say, if I were the only man left in the world, you still wouldn’t consider me as your cultivation partner?”
“So what if I did?” Fan Qingyin haughtily raised her beautiful neck.
“Hehe, if I were really the last man in the world, then shouldn’t I pick and choose?
Why would I focus on a flawed fruit like you?
Besides, who knows if you’re still ‘factory-sealed’?” Ye Haochuan mocked.
Fan Qingyin was so enraged she felt like her lungs were about to explode.
This jerk, mocking her as a flawed fruit is one thing, but daring to question whether she’s still untouched is utterly unbearable.
Fan Qingyin entered a berserk state; with a flick of her hand, a dagger appeared, and with a swift motion, she closed in on him and aimed a strike at his chest.
Shit, isn’t this like murdering her own husband?
How dare this girl do such a heartless thing?
Ye Haochuan was startled but did not dodge.
After all, he was wearing the Golden Silk Soft Armor; what harm could she possibly do to him?
Seeing the dagger stuck in his chest and unable to advance any further, Fan Qingyin was momentarily stunned.
While she was still dazed, Ye Haochuan chuckled mischievously and took the opportunity to pull her into his embrace.
“Hehe, I say, Junior Sister Fan, I’m not just anyone, you know.
Throwing yourself at me like that, what’s that all about?” Ye Haochuan teased.
“If I’m not just anyone, does that mean I am?
let go…” Fan Qingyin was both angry and anxious as she struggled with all her might.
Ye Haochuan laughed heartily and then let her go.
Fan Qingyin wanted to fight him but, knowing she couldn’t beat him, could only stomp her foot hard and turn to run away.
Watching her pert little behind as she ran off, Ye Haochuan shook his head.
This girl has quite the temper, and gets jealous too; lucky for me, my interest in her is minimal, otherwise, I’d really have a headache.
“You know, you really should change that bad temper of yours.
Is teasing beautiful girls that amusing to you?” Huo Mengyao walked up and gave him a disapproving look.
“Hehe, can’t help it, this bad temper of mine can’t be changed anymore.
Besides, her temper is even worse than mine.
Why don’t you advise her to change?” Ye Haochuan said helplessly, shaking his head, “Alright, let’s not talk about this.
I came to discuss something with you.”
“What is it?” Fan Qingyin asked, curious.
It was then that Ye Haochuan shared his plans to go to the Demon’s Lair with Su Zehao.
Huo Mengyao’s expression changed, clearly aware of the place, and frowned, “That place is extremely dangerous.
There are many Underground Demons there.
Are you sure you want to go?”
“You can’t catch tiger cubs without entering the tiger’s den.
I’ve heard that Fire Dragon Grass is found there, and if I can get the seeds of Fire Dragon Grass, I can refine Innate Pills.
With Innate Pills, it’s easy to break through to the Innate Realm,” Ye Haochuan said.
“But the Demon’s Lair is too dangerous.
You could lose your life there,” Huo Mengyao said, visibly worried.
“I’ve thought about this problem.
As long as I’m careful, it shouldn’t be too big an issue.
Plus, I have a way to deal with the Underground Demons,” Ye Haochuan said with confidence.
His confidence naturally stemmed from the memory inheritance from Holy Hand.
Underground Demons, although formidable and possessing humanlike form, belonged to a species with brawn over brains.
As long as he concocted a special concoction and applied it to his body to make the Underground Demons mistake him for one of their own, they would not attack him.
Entering deeper into the Demon’s Lair would thus be unhindered.
The only thing to be wary of was the Underground Demon guarding the Fire Dragon Grass deep within the Demon’s Lair, and to be cautious of others targeting them, or even being pursued, after exiting the Lair.
Seeing his determination, Huo Mengyao could only agree, but she suggested, “Why don’t I come with you?
After all, I have the strength of the Postnatal Peak…”
If you leave, who will take charge of guarding the mine?
Precisely because you have the strength of the Postnatal Peak, it’s necessary for you to stay.
Xu Wei has talent, but his cultivation is not high.
If we encounter external enemies, he probably won’t be able to hold them off,” Ye Haochuan said gravely.
“Alright then, I’ll stay for now.
But you all be careful,” Huo Mengyao nodded.
“Shouldn’t you give me some encouragement, then?” Ye Haochuan said with a smirk, winking.
“So, what kind of encouragement do you want?” Huo Mengyao knew all too well what he was thinking as her delicate hands climbed up to his neck, bringing her tender, red lips close to his.
“I’m going to have you!” Ye Haochuan extended his hand, wrapped it around her slender waist, and pressed down…
