Chapter 1345: Chapter 1336: All Old Acquaintances

In the azure sky.

A figure darted swiftly between the blue sky and white clouds. From this figure’s back extended two blue wings. The one flying in the sky was none other than Ye Chenfeng!

Ye Chenfeng held Qin Shuangshuang’s slender waist tightly with his right arm. After overhearing Zhang Wenxuan and the others’ conversation, he didn’t linger longer, knowing he wasn’t their match at the moment.

Thus, Ye Chenfeng returned to Qin Shuangshuang’s side. Before she could react, spiritual energy wings spread out from Ye Chenfeng’s back, and he flew into the sky, holding her. It was something Zhang Wenxuan and the others never expected — Ye Chenfeng truly escaped from the Black Wind Mountains through the sky.

Held by Ye Chenfeng as they soared through the skies, Qin Shuangshuang heard the whistling wind in her ears. Because Ye Chenfeng held her so tightly, her cheek was pressed against his chest, allowing her to clearly hear his strong heartbeat and smell the manly scent from him, which made her heartbeat quicken too.

Ye Chenfeng flew out of the Black Wind Mountains in one breath, landing in a less populated area outside Bei Yun City.

Once his feet touched the ground, Ye Chenfeng retracted the spirit qi wings back into his body. Qin Shuangshuang, previously held by him in the sky, quickly distanced herself two or three steps away, blushing, she asked, “Ye Chenfeng, what you just used, was it the legendary Flight Battle Technique?”

Ye Chenfeng didn’t conceal it and nodded, saying, “Everyone who helped you is dead in the Black Wind Mountains now, so you’ll be safe returning to Bei Yun City. Next time I come to Bei Yun City, I will help you ascend to the position of Family Head in the Qins. I don’t think you’ll have to wait too long.”

Hearing Ye Chenfeng’s promise again, Qin Shuangshuang bit her moist lips and said, “Ye Chenfeng, take care of yourself. Don’t forget that until you fulfill your promise to me, you cannot be reckless, or I, Qin Shuangshuang, will hate you for a lifetime.”

Ye Chenfeng sensed the concern in Qin Shuangshuang’s voice. He also knew she might have taken a liking to him, but now was not the time for romantic feelings. Feigning ignorance, Ye Chenfeng said, “What are you joking about? There’s no one born in this world yet who can take Ye Chenfeng’s life!”

“Alright, wait for me in Bei Yun City!”

After speaking, Ye Chenfeng channeled spiritual energy to his back, and with blue spirit qi wings extending out again, his figure shot into the blue sky, completely vanishing from Qin Shuangshuang’s sight in the blink of an eye.

Qin Shuangshuang touched her lips with her fair fingers, recalling in the Black Wind Mountains when, in life-and-death moments, she gave her first kiss to Ye Chenfeng voluntarily, and the scene in the cave where she fed him water mouth-to-mouth. These memories flooded her mind.

A gentle smile appeared on Qin Shuangshuang’s lips, and she murmured, “Ye Chenfeng, why must you be so outstanding? How can I like another man after this?”

Then, she sighed bitterly and said, “Ye Chenfeng, I know we’re from different worlds. Your future sky is broader. I will try to forget my feelings for you. Can you dominate the entire Earth Profound Realm in the future?”

…

After Ye Chenfeng sent Qin Shuangshuang to the outskirts of Bei Yun City.

He flew directly towards the direction of the Northern Desolate Wasteland, not wanting to miss the relics that appeared there.

Twelve days later.

Ye Chenfeng successfully entered the Northern Desolate Wasteland, and based on the previous conversation of Song Chunmei and others, he roughly deduced the relic’s location. As he approached, he retracted the spirit qi wings, intending to walk the rest of the way.

During these twelve days, Ye Chenfeng had also crafted a Human Skin Mask for himself since members of the Yinming Sect were there, and altering his appearance was necessary.

At that moment, wearing a Human Skin Mask, Ye Chenfeng’s appearance became extremely handsome. He wore a white long robe and held a folding fan, adopting the air of a carefree gentleman. However, the Black Xuan Sword on his back gave him a somewhat incongruous look.

After walking for twenty minutes, Ye Chenfeng saw nearly a hundred people in his line of sight, realizing he was close to the relic. As he walked into the group, standing at the forefront were three experts of the Divine Thought Realm’s Peaker tier.

One of them, a bald man at the peak of the Divine Thought Realm, pointed at Ye Chenfeng and shouted, “Kid, since you’re here, without our permission, you must stay put. Dare to take a step, and don’t blame me for killing you on the spot.”

The other two experts, also at the peak of the Divine Thought Realm, cast cold glances at Ye Chenfeng, their eyes filled with murderous intent.

Ye Chenfeng evaluated the nearly hundred people around him, noting their strength ranged from the Spirit Communication Realm to the Divine Thought Realm. However, none were at the Divine Thought Realm’s Peak. No wonder they dared not resist the three experts.

Just then, a scruffy-bearded middle-aged man approached Ye Chenfeng and said, “Brother, you must be puzzled and indignant, right? Let me explain for you!”

“A relic appeared not far ahead, guarded by the Shuis from Earth Profound Realm, Wanyue Pavilion, Yinming Sect, Hanbing Sect, and Myriad Beast Sect, while all of us here are loose cultivators, originally training in the Northern Desolate Wasteland.”

“Recently, we saw five-colored lights rising here, which drew us in. But disciples of those five major sects were also drawn in. They immediately informed their sects, and the sect experts rushed here to stop us from leaving, fearing we might leak the news and attract other major sects.”

“However, these five major sects didn’t completely shut us out either; they held a draw among us loose cultivators to select twenty to enter the relic. We here are the unlucky ones who didn’t get picked.”

“Young man, just stay put for a while. I guess you’re someone of certain status, right?”

This scruffy-bearded middle-aged man’s strength was at the Initial Stage of Ocean Gathering Realm. Seeing Ye Chenfeng’s good-quality clothing and holding a folding fan, he thought Ye Chenfeng seemed like a noble among a small family, hence his explanation.

The Shuis? Hanbing Sect?

Ye Chenfeng knew the Shuis were related to Ziyun Auction House in Tianyao City, managed by Shui Ziyan, a woman he recalled with voluptuous physique and charming allure.

And the Hanbing Sect, where Ye Chenfeng was once imprisoned in the Ice Holy Land, reminded him of the Sect Master’s daughter, Ning Xuening. To retaliate against her, he had tasted her lips uninvited.

Adding Yinming Sect’s Song Chunmei and Jiang Motian, many in the Northern Desolate Wasteland were familiar faces to Ye Chenfeng.

Ye Chenfeng knew that relying solely on his own strength wouldn’t get him close to the relic in the Northern Desolate Wasteland. Now, he could only pin his hopes on Shui Ziyan, hoping she too came here. If Shui Ziyan were willing to help, his chances of entering the relic would increase significantly.

As Ye Chenfeng snapped out of his thoughts, he saw not far ahead, a woman in a black tight-fitting robe, with black hair draped over her shoulders and a very curvaceous figure, walking towards them.

Ye Chenfeng immediately recognized this woman in the black tight-fitting robe as the eldest granddaughter of the Shui Family Head, Shui Ziyan!

This made Ye Chenfeng’s lips curl into a slight smile; it seemed the Goddess of Fortune was indeed on his side.
