Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Two hours later, at Mingcui Villa.
Ye Chen exhaled slowly. His body had almost fully recovered, and his cultivation level had even progressed a little.
He stood up and headed downstairs, as over the past two hours, he had heard a lot of noises downstairs.
As soon as he arrived at the living room, he saw Xia Ruoxue and Sun Yi standing rooted to the spot, staring at Ji Lin, who was sitting on the sofa.
The corners of his mouth twitched when he saw the huge pile of snacks and food in front of Ji Lin.
It was almost the entire villa’s supply of snacks!
At this moment, all of these snacks were being devoured by this little girl. It was as if she had not eaten for more than ten days!
Sun Yi gulped as she asked, “Little Chen, how did you get to know this girl? 1 heard from Xia Ruoxue that she came looking for you, right? She’s got a great appetite! I even ordered a fast food delivery feast for her… How can her little belly hold so much…”
Ji Lin had also noticed Ye Chen. She licked his fingers and said in satisfaction, “Ye Chen, I heard you say a few years ago that the food outside is delicious. It seems you weren’t lying. If 1 didn’t have to return in a few days, I would definitely stick around just for the food.”
Ye Chen rolled his eyes at Ji Lin.
“I can’t afford to keep you around. At the rate you’re going, you’ll eat me bankrupt!”
Ji Lin opened another bag of potato chips and said with a smile, “If I hadn’t killed that old man earlier, you would have died.”
Ye Chen shook his head.
“Oh? Acting tough? Don’t bother. 1 know how strong you are,” Ji Lin said disdainfully.
Ye Chen did not want to waste any more time beating around the bush with her, so he asked Xian Ruoxue and Sun Yi to head upstairs first, and was then left alone with Ji Lin.
Ye Chen sat on the sofa to the side and got straight to the point.
“Tell me, what happened for you to suddenly leave the Kunlun Mountains to look for me?”
Ji Lin stopped eating. After taking a sip of her drink to moisten her throat, she said seriously, “I almost forgot about that important thing!”
She wiped her greasy hands on her clothes and took out a jade token from her bag, on which strange characters were written.
Ye Chen’s breathing quickened when he saw the jade token.
This jade token was equivalent to a quota spot!
In the Kunlun Mountains, it was priceless!
No matter how strong and powerful one was, they might not be able to get their hands on this thing!
“Why do you have this?”
Ji Lin then threw the jade token to Ye Chen.
“My sister fought for this for you. Don’t get the wrong idea. It’s all to repay the favor from back then!”
“She knows that you need this to prove yourself. If it wasn’t for this thing, I wouldn’t have left the Kunlun Mountains.”
“But 1 really don’t understand why my sister and that old fellow took a fancy to you. With your crappy strength, you’ll probably be eliminated in the first round. Giving you such a precious quota spot is a waste!”
Ye Chen held the jade token tightly as a beautiful figure appeared in his mind.
The other party was high and mighty, like a goddess. She was revered by countless people, and her strength was awe-inspiring.
She was also one of the top ten geniuses of the Kunlun Mountains.
Could it be that she was doing all this for that small favor from back then?
“How strong is she now?” Ye Chen asked.
Ji Lin rolled her eyes at Ye Chen.
“Don’t even think about it. You’ll never be able to reach her level in your entire life. It’s a waste of time to tell you.”
“Anyway, didn’t one of those sisters order me more delicious food just now? Why hasn’t it arrived yet?’
At this moment, the doorbell rang, and Ji Lin’s eyes lit up with joy as she rushed toward the door.
The door opened, and a lean man appeared in front of Ji Lin.
Ji Lin glanced around, and soon realized that there was no food in the other party’s hands. Cold killing intent was released.
“Where’s my stuff? You didn’t eat it secretly, did you?”
The lean man was stunned, as cold sweat immediately appeared on his forehead. Why was she here?
F*ck!
If this little girl wanted to kill him, it would likely take less than ten seconds, and he could clearly sense her killing intent.
Why?
He had not offended her, right?
“I’ll ask again, where is my stuff?”
Ji Lin’s killing intent was terrifying. The lean man subconsciously took a few steps back and fell to the ground. Her powerful spiritual pressure shook his internal organs, and a trace of blood flowed out of the corner of his mouth.
She was too strong!
How could such a monster suddenly appear in Huaxia?
Other than the two strongest grandmasters on Huaxia’s grandmaster rankings, who else could withstand the little girl’s pressure?
“I… I don’t know…”
At this moment, a man in a security guard’s uniform jogged over with a bag of stuff. Under normal protocol, food was not allowed to be delivered directly to the villa, and thus the security personnel would deal with such things.
In any case, almost everyone living in the villa community was rich. Who would order takeout? Every villa had professional chefs, butlers, and maids.
Thus, the security guards did not have much to do on this front.
“Hello, this is the takeout you ordered…” the security guard said.
However, before he could finish speaking, Ji Lin’s body turned into a blur and she grabbed the stuff and ran back into the house.
The security guard was left staring blankly at his empty hands.
At this moment, Jordan walked out. He wanted to close the door, but when he saw the man on the ground, his eyes narrowed. This was the man who had been spying on them at Cloud Lake Manor last time!
His gaze turned cold and murderous. He looked down and asked, “Who are you? Why are you spying on me?”
The lean man quickly got up and suppressed the fear in his heart. He said, “You… Ye Chen, someone wants to see you at Huxi Park in Jiangnan Province tomorrow at 8:oo!”
Ye Chen frowned.
“If he wants to see me, then ask him to come here himself!”
The lean man knew that Ye Chen would answer like this, and quickly continued, “Ye Chen, what if I told you that the person Jiang Jianfeng? You want to know where your parents are, right?”
Ye Chen’s expression changed drastically as soon as he heard this. His hands clasped around the lean man’s neck.
“Say what?”
Ye Chen’s voice was like a rumbling thunder, as his cold killing intent began to condense into an illusory blood dragon once more.
If it was any other time, the lean man would definitely resist. However, the spiritual pressure that he endured from Ji Lin earlier had already caused him internal injuries.
Thus, he decided not to put up a fight in his weakened state.
“Ye Chen, whether you believe it or not, it’s Jiang Jianfeng! Tomorrow at eight o’clock… You… You’ll know when you go there!”
Ye Chen tossed the lean man to the ground as he replied, “Alright, but if you dare to lie to me, 1 will find you and kill you!”
