The woman stood there, her figure full and voluptuous, graceful and upright, with a slender yet curvaceous allure. She wore a long skirt with a subtle fishtail shape at the hem, accentuating her long, shapely legs and wrapping her waist and hips in a perfectly delicate outline. Standing like that, she was utterly seductive and sensual. Her beautiful eyes fixed straight on Ye Chu, burning with intensity!
Being stared at so directly, Ye Chu was naturally captivated by her stunning beauty, yet he still felt uneasy. Especially since his mind was still reeling from the shock of her knowing he came from Qingmi Mountain, which left his heart far from calm!
“What is your connection to Qingmi Mountain?” Ye Chu asked her. For her to name his identity so directly, she had to be someone extremely familiar with Qingmi Mountain!
“That old monster, that old madman, would have to address me as Martial Aunt if he saw me!” the woman said calmly. Yet her eyes never left Ye Chu. She could not comprehend how Wuxin Peak of Qingmi Mountain had allowed Ye Chu to enter. What sort of place was Wuxin Peak? It had never had more than ten disciples at any time, and every single one carried an extraordinary background. But this young man before her showed no obvious distinction at all, which made the woman deeply curious!
“You must be joking!” Ye Chu scoffed. The old monster of Qingmi Mountain had an insanely high seniority. As the fat one put it, that old fellow had lived who knows how many years already, yet he still had not died? It was simply unnatural!
The old madman even claimed he had been there since Qingmi Mountain first existed! Although Ye Chu did not believe that part, the old madman’s absurdly high seniority was beyond question!
Yet this full-figured, mature woman with a radiant face and skin as fair and tender as a young girl’s actually claimed to be the old monster’s Martial Aunt? Was this not a joke?
“That is not funny at all! The old madman is an undying old fossil! You are not seriously claiming to be an old woman, are you?” Ye Chu stared at her and could not resist looking her up and down. How could such a stunning beauty possibly be a senior to that old monster!
“Are you insulting me?” A sharp glint flashed in the woman’s eyes. She felt extremely uncomfortable under Ye Chu’s gaze. No one had ever dared look at her like this before!
“I would never dream of insulting you! If you really were an old woman, then from now on I would only pursue old women. I am afraid every man in the world would be desperate to marry one!” Ye Chu gazed at her fair face, rosy and flawless without a single blemish!
The woman turned her head to look at Ye Chu. It was night, and the faint moonlight fell on his handsome features, lending him a wildness that went beyond his youth. For him to still dare tease her at a moment like this filled her with both shame and anger, yet she could not help sizing him up in return. Who had given him the courage to behave this way towards her?
“People from Wuxin Peak of Qingmi Mountain truly are bold! As expected from someone raised by the old madman!” the woman said, staring at Ye Chu. “But do you believe that if you do not rein in that shameless gaze of yours right now, I will kill you on the spot?”
Ye Chu laughed. “Life is precious, but beauties are worth even more. To live in this world and not even dare look at a beauty standing right in front of you would be a wasted life!”
He spoke those words with a calm smile, his expression deliberately composed. Yet seeing the woman’s face turn as cold as frost, Ye Chu felt a flicker of unease inside. He wondered whether this woman might really kill him just for looking at her a few times. Given the strength she had shown earlier, he was clearly no match for her! If she truly decided to kill him, he would have no choice but to run!
“People raised by the old madman really are never any good!” The woman stared at Ye Chu, her eyes filled with disgust and displeasure.
The tension in Ye Chu’s body, braced for escape, instantly relaxed. He had guessed correctly after all. This woman had a profound connection to Qingmi Mountain and would not kill him just for a few glances!
With that reassurance, Ye Chu’s gaze grew even more unrestrained. His eyes fell on her proud, full breasts, which seemed ready to burst through her clothes. With every breath she took, they trembled visibly.
“Who exactly are you?” Ye Chu asked the woman. He had secretly admired every beautiful woman in Qingmi Mountain, yet he had never seen this one.
For a woman to be this breathtakingly beautiful, if she had ever been in Qingmi Mountain, there was no way he could have missed her. Compared to Bai Xuan’s mature charm, this woman carried an otherworldly, enchanting sensuality.
Especially in terms of aura, she possessed a fairy-like nobility. Among all the women Ye Chu had seen, the only one who could surpass her in that regard was Lin Shixin, his maternal grandmother’s adopted daughter, the one he had once harboured improper intentions towards!
“Go back and ask the old madman yourself!” The woman’s expression was complicated as she looked at Ye Chu. Her ties to Qingmi Mountain ran extremely deep, destined to remain entangled with it forever!
Without waiting for Ye Chu to reply, she continued, “You are not in Qingmi Mountain. What are you doing in Yao City? Could it be that Wuxin Peak has chosen you? That they are making you bear the responsibility of Wuxin Peak?”
“Do not talk nonsense!” Ye Chu was so startled he nearly jumped. Bear the responsibility of Wuxin Peak? He would rather die! Besides, something so impossible was not something he would ever do!
That old madman was such a pervert that he ignored even the ancestral instructions passed down to Wuxin Peak. What did Wuxin Peak have to do with him?
“If that is not the case, then why are you still wandering around Yao City?” the woman asked. “Have you already graduated or something?”
As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly struck towards Ye Chu. “I already warned you. If your eyes wander again, I will kill you!”
“Bloody hell!” Ye Chu had not expected her to attack so abruptly. He quickly pulled his gaze away from her chest and twisted his body to dodge her strike.
But Ye Chu had underestimated this woman far too much. Though his reactions were sharp and his movements swift, he still could not evade her palm. Her fair, tender hand landed squarely on his chest without missing.
“Pfft…”
Without any suspense, Ye Chu was sent flying backwards. A mouthful of bright red blood sprayed from his mouth, and his internal organs throbbed with excruciating pain.
Yet that was not what truly shocked him. What left him utterly incredulous was that the ground where he had been standing now bore two deep cracks. Clearly, the force she had unleashed had shaken the earth itself.
“Hiss…” Ye Chu no longer cared about the agony in his body. A chill ran down his spine. Only now did he truly realise just how terrifying this woman was!
She had clearly held back in that palm, merely giving him a painful lesson while redirecting most of the power into the ground. Otherwise, that single strike would have taken half his life!
“I thought you were so strong, yet you have not even reached the Innate Realm and you dare venture out into the world!” the woman said as she looked at Ye Chu. “Go back to your Qingmi Mountain. The world is too dangerous. With your current strength wandering about, you are only courting death!”
Although she spoke those words, she was inwardly astonished. There were traces of baleful qi lingering in Ye Chu’s five viscera and six bowels, yet it seemed to have no effect on him at all. Logically, it should have left hidden injuries!
“What relation do we have that you need to meddle in my affairs?” Ye Chu felt somewhat indignant after being struck by her palm. He had only looked at her, but was not beauty meant to be admired by others? She had looked at him too. Did that mean he should strike her on the chest in return?
Ye Chu could not resist glancing once more at her ample curves. If it were an exchange like that, he would not exactly object!
Seeing that Ye Chu still dared to look, the woman grew furious. She raised her palm, but after a moment’s pause, she lowered it again. “Leaving Wuxin Peak before reaching the Innate Realm, and the old madman actually allowed you to descend the mountain. That palm just now was to teach you a lesson, but it also had a benefit. There were shadows of baleful qi in your five viscera and six bowels. I have dispersed them for you!”
Hearing her words, Ye Chu did not know whether to laugh or cry. Could he really tell this woman that he had deliberately stored that baleful qi in his body himself? Moreover, he had already refined it, stripping away its violent nature long ago! Still, with her saying that, any lingering resentment he felt vanished completely!
Ignoring Ye Chu, she continued, “Go back and tell Qingmi Mountain that I will visit in three months! Have all the peak masters of Qingmi Mountain prepare themselves!”
With that, the woman’s figure soared into the air. She actually walked on void! Moonlight fell upon her, making her appear like an immortal fairy, detached from the mortal world entirely.
“Who do you think you are? Telling all the peak masters of Qingmi Mountain to prepare? Are they supposed to welcome you or something?” Although Ye Chu found this woman extraordinary, he did not believe she possessed such authority! He simply assumed she was boasting to make him look foolish. After all, if he actually went back and relayed the message like an idiot, others would laugh themselves to death at him, thinking his intelligence had hit rock bottom!
The draft I wrote today got eaten. Originally planned for chapter 6.1, then the second chapter, and the third at eleven. Now I can only post the first chapter. But the remaining two chapters will definitely be finished before midnight. Three chapters a day will be guaranteed! Sorry about that!
Also: There is a fan named Bianbian who is seriously ill. I cannot do much for her, so I can only silently wish her well here! I hope she stays safe. If you are well, then the day is bright!
