"I will be leaving for a while."
Ye Qianming pressed Luo Qingtong into a corner against the wall, his eyes slightly squinted.
"Cough… Is that so?" Luo Qingtong coughed softly, then said, "Bon voyage?"
Did this man come specifically to bid her farewell?
Ye Qianming's complexion turned cold instantly.
With a sullen, indescribable deep voice, he stared at the young girl before him.
"Is that all you have to say to me?"
This woman, he was about to leave. Was that all she had to say to him?
"Ah?"
Luo Qingtong blinked, looking at Ye Qianming.
Seeing the expression on her face, Ye Qianming's face became contorted with gritted teeth.
"Don't you have anything else to say to me?"
What 'bon voyage'?
Was she so eager to see him leave?
"…"
Luo Qingtong, seeing the darkened expression on his face, racked her brains but couldn't figure out what the man actually wanted her to say.
If it was a confession, forget it!
Thinking of the heart-fluttering words Ye Qianming had said to her before, Luo Qingtong felt her face getting hot again!
"Then…" she thought for a moment and tentatively said, "Come back soon?"
"Hmph."
Hearing her words, Ye Qianming snorted coldly, but his face eased slightly.
Come back soon?
To come back, huh?
Does that mean she would wait for him and not run away?
Ye Qianming was also worried that this woman might run off somewhere while he wasn't there.
Even though he had found the Luo Family, if this woman didn't want to see him, could he really threaten her with the Luo Family's authority to make her appear?
If she really didn't obey, he would have no way to deal with her.
"Mhm." Ye Qianming's eyes darkened slightly as he looked at the whirl of hair on the top of Luo Qingtong's head, his voice revealing a trace of joy.
"Wait obediently for me."
He said that, but then he felt that asking this woman to be obedient was perhaps asking too much, so he changed his statement.
"Just wait for my return."
As he spoke, he bent down and kissed her forehead gently, before adding.
"While I am gone, you are not allowed to provoke other men. Also…"
With a wave of his sleeve, he dispelled the power hiding the Jiuyou Phoenix Ring on her left ring finger, revealing the distinct totem of nine intertwined phoenixes ascending in flight, looking extremely magnificent and extraordinary.
"This ring can mobilize all the forces of the Black Domain, should anyone bully you while I'm away, feel free to use this ring."
Ye Qianming caressed the phoenixes on the ring with his hand.
On the ring finger of his left hand, he wore a ring that was identical to Luo Qingtong's, except that it was designed with ten ascending dragons.
"Through the eight wastelands and the four seas, across the Jiutian and the ten lands, no one should have the audacity to humiliate you!"
"If anyone dares to lay a hand on you, then do not worry about the consequences! Everything will be handled by me!"
His woman, should not be humiliated by anyone!
He himself couldn't bear to harm a single hair on this woman, so why should anyone else get to discipline her?
The cold sharpness in Ye Qianming's eyes surged, but it softened a bit when his gaze turned to Luo Qingtong.
"I won't be gone too long this time. Over at the Luo Family, I'll have some people from Black Domain covertly watch over things; you go ahead and do what you want to do."
When Ye Qianming had first kidnapped Luo Qingtong, he had also seen Little Tyrant Yuan and the others.
But he could guess that Luo Qingtong intended to return to the Tianyu Branch.
Thinking back to the memories from the Subsoul, where he learned of the woman being trapped and almost perishing in the Kaiyuan Secret Realm due to a scheme, Ye Qianming's gaze became instantly dangerous.
This woman was sure to seek revenge, so he would let her be and venting her anger might be good for her.
