The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 767 - 763: Sky-breaking Realm

Ye Chenfeng jumped out of the window, and after waiting on the roof of the Gold Jade Full Fragrance House for about ten minutes, he re-entered the room through the window. He saw that Xia Zining had already gotten dressed, her face displaying a rich hue of embarrassment and anger. Upon seeing Ye Chenfeng walking into the room, her beautiful eyes glared at him fiercely, as if she wanted to tear him to pieces.

Ye Chenfeng, looking at the night sky outside the window, said, "Xia Zining, the moonlight tonight is truly beautiful, don’t you think?"

Ye Chenfeng was not foolish enough to actively bring up the incident just now, acting as if nothing had occurred. Only by doing so could he ensure that Xia Zining’s anger would not be vented on him. That was the behavior of a clever man.

As a woman, Xia Zining had just had her body seen by Ye Chenfeng; surely she wouldn’t bring up the matter herself, right? So when she saw Ye Chenfeng playing dumb, the anger in her heart was almost palpable, and in the end, she could only scold, "Ye Chenfeng, you are a scoundrel."

With the memory of Xia Zining’s near-perfect body in his mind, Ye Chenfeng automatically filtered out the insults and sat down on a chair quite casually. He took out the box containing the Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass from his chest and said, "Xia Zining, stop standing there foolishly, hurry up and help me see if this is the Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass?"

Although Ye Chenfeng had seen the appearance of the Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass in the Han Sect’s related books, he still wanted to have someone confirm it. Xia Zining was originally from a top-tier faction and was definitely familiar with the appearance of the Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass.

Seeing Ye Chenfeng sitting down without any shame and unceremoniously commanding her, Xia Zining’s subdued blush and anger surged up again. She angrily retorted, "Ye Chenfeng, don’t be too excessive. Do you really think I, Xia Zining, am easy to bully?"

Ye Chenfeng, watching the heaving chest of Xia Zining, was very clear about one thing: sometimes you shouldn’t always yield to women. Although he had just seen Xia Zining’s body, there’s a saying, isn’t there? Spare the rod, spoil the child. He wanted to have Xia Zining confirm the Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass as soon as possible.

Ye Chenfeng curled his lip and muttered to himself, "It seems some people want to part ways with me? I don’t really care, after all, some people are just a burden to me, and I can move more freely alone!"

Hearing Ye Chenfeng’s words, Xia Zining bit her silver teeth tightly, took three or four deep breaths, and opened the box containing the Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass without a good mood. When she saw the Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass inside, a smile involuntarily appeared on the corner of her mouth as she said, "This is indeed a stalk of Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass."

Upon Xia Zining’s confirmation of the Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass, Ye Chenfeng involuntarily let out a sigh of relief. However, Xia Zining continued, "This stalk of Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass is completely useless."

What?

Ye Chenfeng immediately stood up from the chair and asked, "Xia Zining, tell me clearly, why is this stalk of Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass useless?"

Xia Zining, seeing Ye Chenfeng’s anxious look, felt even better and said, "This Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass should be from the last batch harvested, so it has been picked for at least ninety-eight years. The Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass needs a special method of preservation. Although you have placed some substances in this wooden box that can prolong the deterioration of the Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass, this method can only preserve it for fifty or sixty years."

Xia Zining pointed to the Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass in the wooden box and said, "The leaves of this Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass are completely withered, and its original medicinal power has almost dissipated. That’s why I said this Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass is useless."

"Xia Zining, are you telling the truth?" Ye Chenfeng asked very seriously. The Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass was related to Han Chuxue’s life, and he could not afford to take it lightly.

Xia Zining, seeing Ye Chenfeng suddenly become serious, then remembered that not long ago, Ye Chenfeng had told her that the Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass was related to a very important person for him. She put away the smile on her face, nodded, and said, "Due to improper preservation, I can confirm that this Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass is now of no use." freēnovelkiss.com

Ye Chenfeng sighed somewhat despondently, remembering how he had helped Zhao Wukong deal with Zhu Mingda and others, and also recalling how he had aided the Zhaos’ sisters in improving their strength. With a bitter face, he said, "A loss, this time it’s a big loss indeed."

This was truly a mixed bag for Ye Chenfeng!

Originally, Ye Chenfeng thought that Han Chuxue’s issue had been resolved, but who knew that the Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass from the City Lord’s Mansion treasury would turn out to be useless? This meant that two years later, Ye Chenfeng would still need to join the battle for the Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass.

Having delayed another day in Tianxing City, there were only four days left until the Tianshan Sect’s disciple selection, and the journey from Tianxing City to the Tianshan Sect would take two days. So, Ye Chenfeng collected his thoughts and said, "Xia Zining, we set out for the Tianshan Sect immediately, taking the chance to blend in there first."

"Ye Chenfeng, have you lost your mind? It’s late at night. Why are we rushing now?" Xia Zining questioned.

Ye Chenfeng replied, "Xia Zining, there are only four days left until the Tianshan Sect’s disciple selection, and we will be wasting two days on the road. We must go and reconnoitre the area around the Tianshan Sect, so if we ever need to flee, we won’t end up running into a dead end."

After much persuasion from Ye Chenfeng, Xia Zining reluctantly agreed to travel at night. They didn’t leave through the main gate but slipped out of a window instead, making a smooth exit from Tianxing City.

Outside of Tianxing City was a straight road. After walking for approximately two hours, the surroundings became quieter, and a lush forest appeared before Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining.

Considering that Xia Zining was only of Profound Rank strength, Ye Chenfeng decided to stop for a rest first. Xia Zining sat under a large tree, gazing at the white moon in the night sky, and said, "Ye Chenfeng, do you really have to infiltrate the Tianshan Sect? With your current strength, you don’t stand a chance against them. What you’re doing is like hitting a rock with an egg."

"Whether you believe it or not, Xia Zining, I will turn into the rock soon enough and make the Tianshan Sect turn into the egg before me," Ye Chenfeng stated firmly.

Seeing Ye Chenfeng’s extreme confidence, Xia Zining suddenly remembered something and said, "Ye Chenfeng, do you remember the other two pieces of information that Li Feicai, the owner of the Mechanism Pavilion, gave you? One is about the City Lord’s Mansion hosting a martial arts competition for marriage, and the other is that male martial artists have been mysteriously disappearing near Tianxing City over the past two years. At this rate, you might be captured before even reaching the Tianshan Sect."

Xia Zining had been joking, merely teasing Ye Chenfeng, but right after she finished speaking, a person emerged from the forest—a woman in a red gauze dress. The woman’s dress was very thin, even revealing her pink bellyband through the material. Her beauty was bewitching, conjuring the image of a "fox spirit."

"It seems I’ve found a good catch today," the seductive woman spoke, her voice laced with immense enchantment, as a powerful force began emanating from her.

As the seductive woman suddenly appeared, Ye Chenfeng immediately became alert, the Soul Force within him stirring ceaselessly. When he sensed the energy fluctuations from the woman, he felt an oppressive force, leading Ye Chenfeng to speculate that the woman was no longer a cultivator at the Innate level, but at least at the Sky-breaking Initial Stage.

"Jinx," Ye Chenfeng couldn’t help but say to Xia Zining beside him.

"Will you two come with me willingly, or shall I have to capture you myself?" The seductive woman swayed her hips as she walked toward Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining.

Xia Zining hadn’t expected her words to be so accurate—the moment she finished speaking, a mysterious woman appeared, and her strength was even above Ye Chenfeng’s, causing her to frown in concern.

Ye Chenfeng boosted his Peak-level Soul Force to the utmost, his heart already irked by the affair of the Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass. He sneered, "I’m not one to pity or spare the fairer sex. Ruining a beauty is more to my liking."

"Your strength is impressive. Though the energy within you seems different from the True Energy Force, I believe it will be useful to me," the seductive woman said with a smile, seemingly very content with the strength Ye Chenfeng had displayed.
