Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The private plane would take off in about an hour, so Ye Chen went back to his apartment, and found that the door had been replaced with the same model.
Satisfied, he called Bao Xinhe and found that he was already in Xiangjiang.
It seemed like this fellow had gone to meet his patriarch ahead of time.
Left with nothing to do, he tidied up the things in the apartment, closed the door, and prepared to leave.
When he returned from Xiangjiang, he would bring his mother, Sun Yi, and Xia Ruoxue to the Ye family’s new residence and construct a protective formation there. Then, he would announce the establishment of the Ye family to the world!
As soon as the door closed, Wei Ying’s door opened, and he saw her dragging her suitcase out.
She was wearing a pair of sunglasses, and her outfit was a casual one, looking like she was on a vacation.
“Wei Ying, you’re not going to class like that are you? Are you planning to go on a trip?” Ye Chen asked curiously.
Wei Ying’s lips curled into a faint smile. She silently walked over to Ye Chen’s side and said, “About that… Can’t you bring me along when you go out to play?” “Who knows if you might ever need an English translator on your trips.
Besides, you won’t lose out while traveling with a beautiful woman, right?”
Seeing that Ye Chen did not react, Wei Ying pretended to be innocent again and said, “Ye Chen, I’ve just taken my annual leave from my teaching job. If you don’t take me with you, I’ll have to go by myself.”
Ye Chen looked at Wei Ying’s pitiful face and shook his head helplessly.
“Wei Ying, do you really want to go? I’ll make it clear in advance that I’m not going there to play. I have something very important to do. You have to listen to me when we get there.”
Ye Chen said this because the Earth Soul Mystical Stone on Wei Ying’s neck could no longer suppress the Fiendish Blood Cold Physique.
If he did not bring Wei Ying with him, something might happen to her.
When he got on the plane, he had to think of a way to refine another Earth Soul Mystical Stone to suppress the power in Wei Ying’s body.
When Wei Ying saw that Ye Chen had agreed, she jumped up happily, and then dragged her suitcase into the elevator.
“Ye Chen, thanks so much!”
To Ye Chen’s surprise, Wei Ying’s lips kissed his cheek.
Wei Ying then realized that she had lost her composure and smiled awkwardly.
“It was just a moment of excitement… Hehe…”
At Huayuan Airport, Ye Chen and Wei Ying boarded a small but luxurious private jet.
Wei Ying was quite surprised by this. She knew that Ye Chen was very capable, but she did not know that he was so rich.
Not long after, Ye Chen brought over the refined Earth Soul Mystical Stone to Wei Ying.
“Take off the necklace for a while.”
“Will that thing come out of my body?” Wei Ying asked nervously.
“It won’t.”
Wei Ying took off the necklace skeptically and placed it in Ye Chen’s palm.
Seconds later, Ye Chen’s fingers formed a seal. Light flashed and the dazzling Earth Soul Mystical Stone was firmly embedded into the necklace.
The current necklace was very different from the original one. It was much more brilliant, and one could even feel some energy flowing around it.
“Here you go.”
Wei Ying took the necklace and exclaimed, “How is this possible? Ye Chen, was that some kind of spell?”
“This necklace isn’t just beautiful. There’s a spiritual talisman inside that can help you block one attack. Also, remember not to take off this necklace unless it’s absolutely necessary. Your current cultivation level is still not high enough to suppress the Fiendish Blood Cold Physique. If it flares up, you might end up injured,” Ye Chen urged and reminded her.
“I got it. Thank you.”
Wei Ying’s face was slightly red, acting as if the necklace was some sort of special gift.
Three hours later, at the international airport, Ye Chen and Wei Ying got off the plane. The sky was a little foggy.
Then, a man wearing a cap came to pick them up. Ye Chen’s name was written on the sign in his hand, which also contained a picture of a bright plum blossom in the lower right corner.
Ye Chen and Wei Ying stepped forward to meet the man. When the man in the cap saw Ye Chen, he quickly took off his cap and said softly, “Hall Master.”
“Okay, bring us to the hotel first.”
“Yes.”
The man in the cap escorted Ye Chen into a black car. The car sped away and they soon arrived at the Charlton Viz Hotel.
Their hotel room was located between the top 103rd to 118th floors of the hotel, which was a luxury hotel chain operated by a company from the Ruby Nation.
Along the way, Ye Chen also learned that the name of the man in the cap was Qian Jianzhong. He was the person in charge of the assassination missions of Xuemei Palace here.
He tried to ask about the guardians, but to his disappointment, Qian Jianzhong did not know much about the guardians.
When they reached the room, Qian Jianzhong carried down his luggage. Ye Chen thought of something and asked, “How is the branch here?”
Qian Jianzhong’s expression froze, and then he smiled bitterly and said, “Hall Master, ever since Xuemei Palace became the Dark Hall, the assassination missions have been cut off. Most of the people here can only take on private jobs. To be honest, most of them are quite unhappy with you.”
“We have already been severely restrained by many forces. If we can’t survive, we will no longer be stationed here. Some of us even plan to return to the headquarters.”
When Ye Chen heard Qian Jianzhong’s words, he was surprised. He had not expected this branch to be in such a miserable state.
However, on second thought, it made sense. Assassination missions were the source of everyone’s income, and cutting it off would only make life difficult for those who had relied on it as a profession.
At this moment, Qian Jianzhong’s phone rang. He glanced at the text message and his expression changed slightly. He then said to Ye Chen, “Hall Master, you just got off the plane, so have a good rest. I have some urgent matters to deal with now, but if you have any questions, you can call me.”
After saying that, Qian Jianzhong left in a hurry..
