Chapter 106 (1/2)

Ling Yuxuan guffawed. “Since you don’t wish to go back, you might as well stay with the Ling Family… ” He pulled her arm.

Su Wan jerked his hand loose and frowned. “I am your cousin. You’d better not get fresh with me! You’re already so old. Time to get married!”

Ling Yuxuan placed his hand on the back of his brain. “What’s the hurry? My elder brother isn’t married as well, is he?”

“Talking about your elder brother, what happened to him? Who was that Han Chen or Xiao Chen?”

Two streaks of cold light gleamed out from Ling Yuxuan’s eyes. “He’d better not meet me. Or I will crush his bones and send their dust flying!”

“You? With your skills? Tut, tut! Even your elder brother can’t beat him… ”

“Hey, what do you mean?… What do you mean by ‘with your skills’? If it wasn’t because of the Restriction in the Human World, I would be Lvl 2 Foundation Building Realm!”

“Can’t be bothered with you. I’m going over there to look at the jewelry.”

“Hey, why are you looking at a roadside stall? Our family owns so many jewelry shops… ”

Xiao Chen was startled. That woman was walking in his direction. Before he could turn to go, Su Wan was already beside him. Xiao Chen turned his face to one side. But he could not turn too much as Ling Yuxuan was still on the other side.

Two of them were only at the early stages of the Foundation Building Realm. He did not have to worry that he could not beat them. He was just afraid those old devils from the Ling Family might come after him. There were a dozen cultivators in the later stages of the Core Forming Realm, together with a superior near the Nascent Soul Realm, still in retreat. They controlled the local officials and if they tried to hunt him down here, he could not escape.

As he pondered, the impatient voice of Su Wan rang out in his ears. “Are you buying anything? If you aren’t, don’t stand in the way and block me.”

“Oh, so sorry, Miss.” Xiao Chen pressed his True Qi to his throat and lowered his head, moving aside. Ling Yuxuan strode over and gazed at his retreating figure. His eyes narrowed. “This man… ”

Xiao Chen hurried back to the inn and dashed upstairs. He did not know whether Ling Yuxuan had seen his face. They could not stay in Lingyun Citadel any longer. He would rather search out a cave and stay there rather than risked being discovered.

When he reached the farthermost room, he pushed open the door forcefully. The door bar could not withstand the push and gave way, breaking into two.

“Senior Sister Luo! Hurry… ”

“Ah!” Luo Shangyan gave a scream, startling everyone in the inn. She was standing beside a bathtub, quickly covering herself with a piece of clothing. She was all a-flutter like an alarmed deer as she shouted, “Turn back!” She was nearly in tears.

“Ah, sorry, so sorry!” Xiao Chen came to himself and quickly turned around, slamming the door shut forcefully.

“Don’t turn back… until I shout for you to!”

Luo Shangyan flurriedly grabbed her undergarments beside the bathtub and put them on. She next went to the head of the bed and put on a white skirt hanging on the bedpost. Her heart was still throbbing. After a long time, she finally said, “I… I am done.”

Xiao Chen turned around gingerly and saw her sitting on the edge of the bed, her legs closed tightly. She dared not raise her head and her face was flushed, like crimson clouds at dusk.
