Chapter 452: Distant, Missing (Seeking Monthly Tickets and Subscriptions)
Night, the stars dotting the boundless universe, are very beautiful, full of depth and mystery.
"Brother Xu, this is where you used to live." Ye Tian pointed to a straw house that could collapse at any moment, his mouth twitching slightly, "This is too shabby, how can you let Xiao Qin marry you, I wouldn't accept it either."
"Little brother, how can you talk to your brother like that, isn't my house your house too?"
"Do you want to rough it here for one night?"
Xu Que, with a head full of black lines, said timidly, unaware that Xiao Qin pinched him hard on the waist and said, "Senior... Senior, Xiao Que didn't mean to talk to you like that, please forgive him."
Just now, Li Xiangqin had seen an elder of the Star Sect kneeling on the ground, respectfully calling this young man before her the Young Martial Venerate. That meant he must be an unparalleled strong person, and one must have a sense of awe towards the strong.
Martial Venerate Zhou Taiyi was a dreadful existence that made Kunlun Martial Artists tremble in fear, and the man before her was reputed as the Young Martial Venerate, truly an incredible person.
"What are you afraid of? Now, he's my little brother." Although Xu Que said so, the hand he originally wanted to pat Ye Tian's shoulder with unknowingly retracted.
"Alright, as for Xiao Qin's matter, someone will help you settle it tomorrow."
"Also, you can go take the Star Sect's assessment, who knows, you might pass."
"I'm leaving, Brother Xu, let's meet if we're fated to do so."
Ye Tian patted Xu Que's shoulder and said with a smile, while giving him a wisp of Creation Energy to improve his aptitude.
In Xu Que's daze, Ye Tian's figure had completely disappeared into the air, leaving only him and Li Xiangqin.
"Xiao Qin, let's go inside." Xu Que smiled bitterly. Just moments ago, he was under enormous pressure. He, an Earth Rank Martial Artist, had touched the highest echelons of Kunlun Martial Artists. Even if he was calm, he would still be afraid.
"Hmm, Xiao Que, if you break up with me this time, I'll chop you into pieces."
"My lady, where would I dare! Can we at least share the bed, the floor is so cold."
......
Tonight, Star City is destined to be sleepless. The City Lord's Mansion's banquet hastily dispersed after Ye Tian and the other two left.
"Go back and investigate, make sure to get on Xu Que's good side."
"At any cost, curry favor with Xu Que, there must not be any mistakes, or bring your heads to see me."
"You few, come with me tomorrow to visit Xu Que's house, pack up that First-tier Peak Spiritual Medicine, and set off at dawn."
"Stop talking nonsense, guard Xu Que's house with me tonight, be respectful, got it?"
Overnight, Xu Que's name was enough to intimidate the entire Star City. Everyone wanted to curry favor with him; behind him stood the fourth-ranked strong person on the Kunlun Divine List. A moment of hesitation, and they wouldn't even get the scraps.
The ringleader, Ye Tian, had long packed his bags and arrived at a very secluded, empty meadow in Star City, lying on the back of the Heavenly Blue Divine Bull.
"It's been almost ten days since I arrived in Kunlun, I wonder how Chumo and Yunxi are doing."
"Surely sneaking snacks while I'm not around, and getting fat, hmph."
"In a month, I must return to the Mortal World, I can't shake this uneasy feeling."
Ye Tian looked up, gazing at the stars in the sky, very beautiful, very bright, very mysterious. A gentle smile curled at the corners of his mouth, and he closed his eyes.
In a distant apartment thousands of miles away, the hall lights were still on, while other villas were dark.
"Chumo, that bad guy Ye Tian has been gone for so long, still not back!!" Mu Yunxi's eyebrows were like crescent moons, eyes like stars. Her little crystal-clear feet swayed back and forth, the most crucial point being a bag of potato chips in her hand.
"Sister Yunxi, you've been eating so many snacks lately, you'll get fat."
"When Xiao Tian finds out, he'll definitely call you a little piggy again."
Lin Chumo, wearing pink pajamas, looked absolutely beautiful and charming, yet slightly cute and playful.
She put one finger on her lips, pouting, and looked at Mu Yunxi's potato chips with a bit of longing and hesitation.
"Whatever, Chumo, you have to become a little piggy too, can't be just me."
"Here, eat."
Mu Yunxi handed the potato chips to Lin Chumo, her face serious.
As the night deepened, the apartment's lights finally went out. In one room, two beautiful figures quietly lay on soft silk bedding.
"Stupid Ye Tian, when will you come back! I miss you, boohoo~~"
"In a few more days, I'll be going home. I didn't expect the Shen Family to be so powerful, I...."
"When will you come back, I really want to see you."
Mu Yunxi curled up like a sloth, seeming to seek some support. She covered her mouth, holding back the sobs that Lin Chumo beside her couldn't hear. Her eyes were full of deep longing.
Lin Chumo, on the side, was no different. Though she was a gentle, soft-hearted woman, that figure truly lingered in her thoughts.
"I didn't expect the Goddess to be in the Mortal World; let's hurry up."
"The great disaster of Kunlun is approaching; finding the Goddess is our Dream God Sect's only hope."
Across the Kunlun Mountains, several graceful shadows flitted like ghosts, invisible and undetectable, completely ignoring the fierce beasts.
......
Dawn breaks, the sun rises, a new day begins.
"Xu Que, you bastard, when did you climb up? I'll beat you to death."
"Hey, hey, I don't know either, maybe it was cold at night."
In Xu Que's shabby house, two figures chased and played, with a girl blushing and glaring with big eyes.
"Bang bang, Xu Que, you little brat, get out here, damn it!!"
"Is my daughter in your damn house again? Get out here, do you deserve her?"
"I'm counting to three, if you don't come out, I'll break the door."
Xu Que's flimsy house was battered by a robust bearded man, making it seem on the verge of collapse.
Behind him were several martial artists filled with evil qi, led by a scar-faced man who seemed very displeased with the bearded man.
"Creak~~" The door opened. Li Xiangqin, trembling, followed Xu Que out, "Dad, why are you here."
"You're asking me? I should be asking why you're in this brat's house. I've told you not to associate with this pauper."
"Enough with the nonsense, daughter, where's the Spirit Stone you earned as a servant at the City Lord's Mansion yesterday? Give it to me, I need it."
The man was rude and unreasonable, lashing out immediately. He was Li Xiangqin's father.
"No... I don't have it..."
Xu Que clenched his fists, glaring at the bald man while Li Xiangqin trembled and spoke.
"Don't have it?? Old Li, you're playing with us! Fine, we'll take your daughter to settle the debt."
The bald man took a step forward, eyes full of mockery.
"Courting death, dare to touch Xu Young Master's woman, follow me, beat him till even his mother won't recognize him."
A throng of Heavenly Rank Martial Artists surged forward, their faces filled with righteous indignation.
