Chapter 151: Ximen Qing and Pan Jinlian

“Brother, you are wounded.” Ning Xue, leaning on the familiar shoulder, gently stroked the bloodstains. Her voice was so soft, yet it contained a weeping and sobbing kind of distressed tone. Ye Wuchen whispered in her ears, “Don’t worry Xue-er, brother’s wounds have already healed, and the wolf has been vanished by your sister Tong Xin. Listen, don’t be sad. Look, your sister Meng is also hurt.”

“En... I won’t be sad anymore.”

A drop of tear fell on Ye Wuchen’s shoulder, she secretly wiped it away. Facing Meng Zhi, she asked in concern, “Sister Meng, are you also hurt?”

Meng Zhi did not hear her, because she was shocked, utterly shocked. All her life, she had never been utterly shocked like this before. The moment Tong Xin made the Blood Wind Wolf disappear into the thin air made her remember something that was recorded in the ancient books that had been handed down for a thousand years. Only the God-Level dark masters had the power to carry out the forbidden dark curse of the devil of the darkness, the power that could make the living cells of an organism transform into the elements of the darkness, then completely dissipate between heaven and earth.

Right now, a young girl had similarly carried out the most terrible act in front of her eyes.

And the murderous spirit and eyes of the young girl, as well as the cruel punishment she had done to the Blood Wind Wolf had shown Meng Zhi that if she were to know that Ye Wuchen’s wounds were sustained because of her, the one that would disappear would not have been that big wolf.

Ye Wuchen obviously knew what her meaningful glance implied, he proceeded in front of her and asked, “Can you still walk?”

Meng Zhi was having a hard time shifting her gaze away from Tong Xin. She walked a few steps, but unbearable pain came from her foot so her body also swayed a bit. Ye Wuchen put down Ning Xue, proceeded ahead preparing to help her. Meng Zhi gestured for him to move away, but Ye Wuchen grabbed her wrist and he said indifferently, “I advise you not to try to be brave, your wounds are too deep and are also affecting your bones. If you force yourself to walk, you will open your wounds one at a time, and your whole foot will fester. At that time, prepare to become a single footed fairy.”

For a woman who was accustomed to being perfect, she would not dare to risk it leaving a few scars, let alone losing a foot. Her face went pale, and eventually she did not insist anymore, allowing him to put her arm around his neck.

“Let’s go.” Ye Wuchen nudged the startled Meng Zhi.

Meng Zhi stared at him, puzzled, and asked, “Are you going to carry me on your back?”

After asking, she regretted it. Turning her face away she did not dare to look at him again.

Ye Wuchen glared at her, and asked in a laughing tone, “You are too greedy. Even though I am really tired, I am helping you walk, but you even go as far as to have me carry you on my back?”

“Y-y-you let go of me, I can walk by myself.” Meng Zhi’s face turned bloody red, using all her might to push Ye Wuchen aside and ignoring the pain in her foot, she staggered as she stubbornly walked ahead.

Ye Wuchen looked at her back, in a low voice he said, “Women, they are actually narrow-minded beings. Too bad... You’ve seen something you shouldn’t have, even if you want to leave it will be impossible now.”

After a few minutes, they reached the end of the forest, and before their eyes was an impressively huge manor. They were directly facing a brown gate where a gold gilded signboard hung, on it were two words “Xi Men”.

“So that’s the way it is. Since we headed South all the way, we accidentally intruded inside the territory of the Ximen family. No wonder they had a considerably strong spell inside this area.” Ye Wuchen said. The fame of the Ximen Family was well know around the Tian Long City a long time ago. The reputation of the Ximen Clan had played a critical role throughout the Southern area of the Tian Long Nation, standing side by side with Dongfang, Nangong, and Beiming, they formed the four pillars of the nation, assisting each other. If one of them suffered from an attack of the enemy, the other three would react accordingly, so that nobody dared to provoke these four magical military families. This was also the rule of existence that the four magical military families had relied on to stay strong for many hundreds of years.

“This is actually the territory of the Ximen Family.” Meng Zhi had been emotionally moved. Although she was not used to travelling outside, she knew about the world’s different influential families and understood them more thoroughly than Ye Wuchen.

The major part of her body weight relied on Ye Wuchen, her right arm hung around his neck and left foot was on the ground while the injured right foot softly hovered the ground. Her posture was extremely dubious. Her stubborn attitude did not maintain long enough because of the pain in her foot and her fear of becoming the “single footed fairy” so she compromised and proceeding forward with the support of Ye Wuchen. For being snuggled close to a man, she had not imagine this before, but now her heart contained only a tiny bit of resistance and a voice that steadily occurred inside her mind. Being carried by him, even her feet were being touched by him... These were nothing, because in the future, she would... kill him.

The gate of the Ximen Family residence was tightly shut. Only a good-looking, medium built, young man was standing in front of the gate. Seeing them coming from the forest, he hurriedly went in front and welcomed them with a smiling face, “What an honor to have you as our guests. Pardon us for not welcoming you earlier, it’s our fault. Unknowingly...”

The voice of the young man suddenly stopped short, his face exposed an expression of alarm. Ye Wuchen thought he lost his attention temporarily because of Tong Xin or Meng Zhi, as he composed himself he actually found out that the young man’s gaze was firmly fixed on his own face, his heart doubted.

The young man’s expression switched from being alarmed to a face full of enthusiasm, he excitedly said, “This gentleman, are you Master Ye from Tian Long City?”

“Oh? Do you know me?” Ye Wuchen took a few glances at him to confirming that he had not seen this man before. The only possibility left was...

The young man became more excited, as he responded at once, “My family name is Ximen, with just a single name, Qing. That day, I had fortunately witnessed the talent of Master Ye’s exceptionally great skills. I only regret that I wasn’t able to make friends with you in person, I really didn’t expect to meet you here today, I almost thought there’s something wrong with my eyes.”

Ximen... Qing!? Ye Wuchen’s whole body stiffened. Finding a good name was not hard, why would he get such name with a unique personality.

[note: his name, Ximen, is west door and Qing means “to celebrate” which is kinda what he’s doing right now]

Ximen Qing half bent down his head with both eyes fixed on Ye Wuchen alone. He could not conceal his fervent and pleasantly surprised expression. He did not care much about Tong Xin or Meng Zhi, as he almost lost his mind looking at them from afar, how could he stare at them again? Being regarded as the young master of the Ximen Family, he knew to behave with integrity.

“So that’s what it is. You flatter me brother Ximen. How can my skills be judged by the discerning eyes of the Ximen Family?” Ye Wuchen smiled. Based on the influence of the Ximen Family, what made Ye Wuchen baffled was not their ability to join every competition, but why they would watch what they considered to be a “boring” competition.

“Hey! Why would you say that, Master Ye? You are still very young, you not only have an extraordinary martial skills, but your wisdom and talent are also amazing. That day, me and my father happened to be in the Tian Long City, and overcome with boredom we proceeded ahead to look. We didn’t expect that we would luckily witness a person of extraordinary talent. When I told my family about your talent, majority of them wouldn’t believe me. It seemed like Master Ye’s talents were universally shocking.” Ximen Qing said as he laughed.

Ye Wuchen did not wish to continue with this topic, so he straightened his face and asked, “The four of us originally planned to go to Yan Long City in the South. We didn’t expect to mistakenly enter this place, we must have brought much troubles to you, brother Ximen.”

Ximen Qing laughed bitterly and said, “Indeed, it’s really a big complication. I have known from the start that someone had intruded inside the Thousand Magic Camp. I thought it was someone with bad intentions who desired to enter our Ximen residence. In normal times, people who intrude are those our Ximen Family refused to see, so we ignored it. We didn’t expect it was actually you, Master Ye. The moment I saw Master Ye’s face, I realized that you must have mistakenly broken through this place, if I had known earlier, I would have open wide our gates to welcome you in... Moreover, I didn’t expect that Master Ye actually possessed remarkable abilities, unexpectedly you have broken the spell of Thousand Magic Camp. Apparently, Master Ye you have great strength, but you weren’t able to show it on stage that day. Hehe, don’t worry Master Ye, this is the negligence of our Ximen family, you did this as a self-defense, so we couldn’t blame you for that. On the other hand, we have injured Master Ye and this lady, this is truly the fault of the Ximen family. If you don’t mind, why don’t you stay at our Ximen residence for three days, for us to make up for our mistakes? You may leave when your wounds are healed.”

He saw the blood stains on Ye Wuchen’s shoulder and the wound on Meng Zhi’s foot.

Ye Wuchen shook his head as he smiled and said, “Brother Ximen, you are very courteous, but these are minor wounds, it’s really nothing. It’s our fault that we have entered your Ximen Family’s Thousand Magic Camp without permission, then consequently destroyed the Thousand Magic Camp. This really shouldn’t have happened, we are to blame ourselves for sustaining these injuries, It’s really an honor for brother Ximen not to blame us already, how could we still trouble you with our concerns? But...” Ye Wuchen shot a glance at Meng Zhi, with a half-joking tone he said, “this fairy unfortunately injured her foot, for a few days she won’t be able to walk properly, so we would like to make a shameless request to borrow a horse from brother Ximen.”

Ximen laughed as he said frankly, “There’s no need to be courteous for this minor concern, I will immediately...”

Creak.

The gate behind Ximen Qing was pushed open and a young woman in a gorgeous attire ran out from within. She anxiously yelled out “hubby”, then supporting herself on Ximen Qing’s arm as she stood beside him, vigilantly looking at the four of them. Her gaze was first attracted by Meng Zhi, but she only glanced at her then lowered her head, as the feeling of being inferior spread across her heart. Meng Zhi was simply standing there, but in contrast with her, she seemed a little dull.

“Lian-er, why did you come out?” Ximen Qing asked worriedly as he rebuked her. He still had not told her whether the person who broke the camp was enemy or friend. For prevention, he had all the people hide inside the courtyard, as he personally came to check. Now he felt relaxed. Even though they were the popular Ximen Family, when it comes to dealing with those who destroyed the Thousand Magic Camp, they would try as much as possible not to become enemies with that person, unless they were not given a choice.

“I’m worried about you, so...”

The way Ximen Qing addressed this young woman covered Ye Wuchen’s body in a cold sweat, so he probingly asked, “Brother Ximen, she is?”

“Oh! This is my wife. Family name Pan, first name Jinlian, the daughter of the richest man in the Jin Qing City up ahead.” Ximen Qing smiled as he introduced her.

Ye Wuchen’s complexion was in an awful condition, for quite a long time he was not able to say a word.

Ximen Qing looked at him with a bewildered expression and asked, “Judging by Master Ye’s expression, does it mean that you have already met my wife?”

Ye Wuchen waved his hand at once, “No, no, I only thought that brother Ximen and this Lady Pan are the perfect match which I have rarely witnessed in this human world. I just exclaimed in admiration.”

Ximen Qing and Pan Jinlian... Husband and wife. If they were not a perfect match, then what else would they be?”
