Chapter 195 (1/2)

“Alright, everyone disperse! Get back to business!” Xue Longfei ordered the spectators. They all glared at Qi Aoshuang, but still dispersed.

Dong Fenghou hurriedly ran over to Qi Aoshuang as if his butt was on fire. “Aoshuang, I-I’m going back to the inn. Chuxin, Chuxin is still there.” Dong Fenghou had overheard Xue Longfei say that the Temple of Light and Black Lightning already had the inn surrounded.

“Let’s go.” Qi Aoshuang nodded, frowning. Her gaze had not shifted from Xue Longfei, who was still smiling brightly, evidently cautious.

Dong Fenghou madly hastened to the inn. No one stopped them, which made Qi Aoshuang even more suspicious of Xue Longfei.

“Why did you approach me?” Xue Longfei walked over casually, motioning for the girl beside him to leave.

Qi Aoshuang watched him carefully, but did not sense any malice.

“I don’t care about your relationship with those religious fools. I only wanted to have a fight with you. The results are already out. You are stronger than me,” he said plainly as he sheathed his sword.

“The mermaid princess.” Qi Aoshuang also sheathed her sword, coldly announcing her objective. One thing was certain: Xue Longfei would not act based on common sense. She was a little surprised at his free spirit, even a little envious.

“Ah? You’re looking for Qian-er*?” Xue Longfei stroked his chin thoughtfully, then said coldly. “Did you fall for her good looks? Are you into women?”

*adding -er to the end of a first name is a form of endearment, like a cute nickname

Qi Aoshuang’s expression turned frosty, Azure Ripple blade already in hand.

“I was joking!” Xue Longfei took a few steps back, his hands raised in surrender. “Don’t be hasty, I was just joking.”

“Humph!” Qi Aoshung humphed coldly, retracting the Azure Ripple blade.

“But why are you looking for Qian-er?” Xue Longfei still did not understand.

“We are after her tiara, and want to bring her back to her parents’ side.” As Qi Aoshuang finished speaking, she could already see that Xue Longfei’s expression was different from usual.

“Oi, don’t look at me that way. I didn’t kidnap her, she stubbornly wanted to follow no matter what.” Xue Longfei seemed somewhat unsatisfied. He did a hair flip, then sighed, “It was just my luck that I was born with such good looks.”

Qi Aoshuang immediately felt a burst of disdain, but didn’t say a word. She only eyed him coldly.

“First, you should go help your friends. We’ll meet at the easter pier. My boat is there. I will bring you what you want and tell Qian-er to return to her clan.” Xue Longfei shrugged.

Qi Aoshuang frowned, watching Xue Longfei skeptically. What exactly was he planning?

“Let’s go. Your friends must be amidst a difficult battle currently,” Xue Longfei advised.

“How strong are the people they are fighting compared to you?” Qi Aoshuang gave no indication of leaving.

“Of course weaker than me. As the strongest one, I was reserved to fight you.” Xue Longfei raised a brow playfully.

“Oh, then it’s nothing. I’ll just wait here for them.” Qi Aoshuang walked over to the fountain and sat down calmly.

“What?!” Xue Longfei’s eyes widened, watching the expressionless Qi Aoshuang. Did she not care about her companions? Or did she have confidence in them? It seemed to be the latter. He couldn’t help but doubt. Were her friends really that strong?

Qi Aoshuang did not say a word, continuing to sit calmly.

“Hm? What are you up to?” Xue Longfei sat down right next to her, chatting naturally. “I don’t like those religious hypocrites who spew lies all day either. Originally, they had a branch here, but I secretly eliminated them. They have told me to watch out for the perpetrator ever since, what a joke. Why would I hand myself over?” Xue Longfei chatted freely without any precautions.

“Destroy the Temple,” Qi Aoshuang answered simply. She looked up at the sky, calculating when they would wrap up at the inn. She secretly sighed in her heart. Xue Longfei was truly unruly beyond belief. The City of Unruly, what a name that befitted him.
