“What are you going to do?” Zhong Wei’s face changed dramatically, her arms crossed over her chest as she looked at Ye Chu with a hint of terror. She was clear about her own condition. If this fellow wanted to do something, she would have no way to resist.
“Scared!” Ye Chu looked Zhong Wei up and down. Her legs were straight and long, slender and sexy. Her waist was so slim it could be encircled with one hand. Her pretty face was delicate, her lips rosy and red. Her beautiful eyes held a trace of terror, her gaze cold and sharp. Combined with her sexy, enchanting figure, she had quite a bit of charm.
Zhong Wei stood there like a proud lotus, carrying arrogance and icy coldness. Her gaze held a chill, her lips tightly bitten as she said not a word. That coldness was like frost.
Meeting Zhong Wei’s gaze, Ye Chu could not even see a trace of life in it. This made him shrug his shoulders, thinking that this woman had actually prepared herself for mutual destruction.
Smiling, he paid Zhong Wei no more mind. Ye Chu flicked his finger and scraped off a fingernail-sized piece from Zhong Wei’s hairpin.
After scraping off this piece, Ye Chu casually tossed it back to Zhong Wei and said, “Although a piece fell off the hairpin, it doesn’t affect its use. Here, back to you!”
Zhong Wei caught it and stared blankly as Ye Chu buried the piece he had dropped on the ground with sand and mud, leaving less than a millimetre exposed. If one was not careful, they would not even see the piece.
“Alright! Let’s go!” After doing this, Ye Chu reached out to pull Zhong Wei along, but Zhong Wei retreated several steps frantically as if startled.
Ye Chu was taken aback, then laughed loudly, “Hahaha, don’t be so nervous. Rest assured, although you look quite good and your waist is supple, which interests me greatly, I really am not accustomed to using force.”
After speaking, Ye Chu walked forward and said on his own, “If you don’t come, I’m leaving.”
Seeing Ye Chu’s attitude, how could Zhong Wei not know that Ye Chu had just been scaring her? Zhong Wei’s face flushed red with an indescribable coquettishness, yet she ground her teeth in hatred towards Ye Chu, loathing this fellow to the extreme.
“Bastard!” Zhong Wei resolved that if she had the chance, she would definitely make this fellow pay. However, watching Ye Chu already walking quite far away, she quickly hurried after him.
“Hey! What are you doing throwing that piece of hairpin there?” Zhong Wei finally could not suppress her curiosity. Ye Chu had brought her so far just to drop a piece of hairpin.
“Just to let others know we were here,” Ye Chu answered.
“Let them know we were here?” Zhong Wei frowned, glanced behind her, and suddenly understood something. “This is the road to the Wasteland Canyon?”
“Clever!” Ye Chu gave Zhong Wei a thumbs up.
“You abducted me in front of Cuizhu and the others, then brought me here and dropped my hairpin, all to mislead them into thinking we took the Wasteland Canyon?” Zhong Wei connected the events before and after and instantly understood.
“Exactly! If I abduct you, and someone encounters Cuizhu and the others, they will definitely force your whereabouts out of them. Then they will surely tell them you were captured by me, and our plan to go to Wasteland City will also be known. Precisely because we said it, those people looking for you will instead not believe it. They will search in the opposite direction. Leaving a piece of hairpin will make them certain we took the Wasteland Canyon,” Ye Chu answered.
“Good tactic!” Zhong Wei said to Ye Chu. “But it’s just such a tiny piece of hairpin, even mostly buried in sand and mud. Are you sure they can see it? If they can’t see it, wasn’t all your effort for nothing? If you threw down my entire hairpin, they would find it much more easily.”
“Your hairpin is so expensive, I can’t afford to compensate for it!” Ye Chu shrugged. “Besides, this hairpin looks beautiful on you, I like seeing it.”
“Pah!” Hearing Ye Chu flirting with her again, Zhong Wei spat, naturally not believing Ye Chu’s string of nonsense. Her clear eyes stared intently at Ye Chu, waiting for his answer.
Under the direct gaze of those beautiful eyes, Ye Chu finally conceded defeat. “If you throw a whole hairpin on the ground, those people will be suspicious. The more casual it seems, the smaller the flaw appears, the more they will believe it.”
Zhong Wei nodded, able to understand this point. “But how do you guarantee they can see something so small?”
“Others might not see it, but the people after you will definitely see it,” Ye Chu said to Zhong Wei with a smile, then stopped and tossed Zhong Wei a set of blood-red robes.
“Change out of your clothes and put this on!” Ye Chu instructed Zhong Wei.
Zhong Wei took the clothes in her hand and looked at Ye Chu, only to see Ye Chu pulling the blood robes over himself, wrapping his entire body tightly, revealing only a pair of eyes.
“Still standing there in a daze? Hurry up and change!” Seeing Zhong Wei still standing there blankly, Ye Chu shouted at her.
Zhong Wei then began to put on the blood robes. She did know Ye Chu’s purpose, but she also knew this attire belonged to the Blood Guards. This fellow truly had guts as big as the sky, even daring to impersonate the Blood Guards.
“Hey! Shouldn’t you take off your own clothes first before putting on this outfit?” Ye Chu looked at Zhong Wei with a smile.
Zhong Wei directly ignored Ye Chu, well aware of his filthy thoughts. Take off my clothes in front of you? Keep dreaming.
“All changed!” Zhong Wei quickly put on the blood robes, covering her entire body. “But you really have some nerve, even daring to impersonate the Blood Guards.”
“You actually know these are the Blood Guards too?” Ye Chu glanced at Zhong Wei. “It’s not the first time I’ve impersonated the Blood Guards, nothing to be afraid of. Come on, we’re going to Wasteland City now.”
Zhong Wei felt even more puzzled in her heart, wondering just who this fellow was. When did such a fearless person emerge in the Qing Domain? Who did not know the ferocity of the Blood Guards? They were also the sole force of Blood Butcher Supreme. No one dared to provoke them lightly, yet this fellow was poking the tiger’s rear.
Zhong Wei had originally thought that if Ye Chu knew she was his fiancee, he would definitely not dare to treat her like this. Now it seemed that even if she told Ye Chu about himself, he might not take it seriously at all!
After changing into the blood robes, Ye Chu marched openly and brazenly without any concealment. As soon as Ye Chu arrived at Wasteland City, he directly beat a cultivator blocking his path into serious injury.
“Scram! Daring to ask me for road toll money, you don’t know whether you’re alive or dead!” Ye Chu stepped on the cultivator before him, cracking his bones.
Ye Chu’s arrogance and domineering manner made Zhong Wei’s heart leap with fear. She did not doubt for a moment that countless people in Wasteland City wanted to capture her at this very moment. Yet in such an environment, this fellow was so brazen and bold, as if afraid others did not know he was there.
