Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

That's right—it was Bai Yingshi, the most beautiful woman in the martial arts world.

Among the women Ye Fei knew, no one else would be in such a remote place except her. She had a close relationship with a sect there.

After coming to this conclusion, Ye Fei didn't feel relieved. Instead, he grew even more anxious. He knew Bai Yingshi's martial prowess well.

Apart from him and Ye Zhilin, even if she weren't on Tianshan Mountain, Bai Yingshi would rarely find a match.

Yet now, she had been forced to send a distress signal, which meant her opponent was incredibly powerful—likely another guardian sect.

But wasn't she on good terms with the wife of the Qinghai Lake Sect's leader? How could she be attacked there?

However, Ye Fei knew this wasn't the time to dwell on such questions. He stopped in his tracks, abandoning his plan to help Tang Zhizhong, and urgently said to Ye Zhilin and Tang Rou, "You two head back to Wanghai first. A friend of mine is in danger, and I need to go help her!"

"Then I'll go with you," Ye Zhilin immediately offered. Danger meant excitement, and since Ye Fei's friend was also her friend, how could the righteous leader of the martial arts alliance stand by and do nothing?

Ye Fei didn't object to Ye Zhilin's suggestion. This time, Bai Yingshi might have provoked someone as powerful as a guardian. While Ye Fei wasn't afraid, having an extra ally would be helpful.

But this plan quickly fell through. After checking with the airport, they learned there were no direct flights to the area, and the nearest city's flight wouldn't depart for another two hours.

Ye Fei couldn't wait that long, so he decided to go alone. His domain's range had expanded to nearly ten kilometers, meaning he could teleport up to two hundred kilometers in one go before needing to rest for ten minutes to replenish his energy.

With this in mind, the two-thousand-kilometer journey would take just over an hour.

During his rest periods, he could use his physical strength to sprint, further shortening the time.

After explaining this to the two women, they immediately agreed. They had absolute confidence in Ye Fei.

Though Ye Zhilin was a bit disappointed she couldn't join the excitement, she knew the situation was urgent and had no time for jokes.

After bidding farewell to the two women, Ye Fei teleported away from the airport. Once he had his bearings, he began a series of rapid teleportations until his energy was depleted, then switched to running while circulating his internal energy to recover.

Even without using his energy, Ye Fei's speed was astonishing. During the ten-minute recovery period, he managed to cover fifty to sixty kilometers—comparable to a supercar.

An hour later, Ye Fei finally arrived at the highest-altitude region of the country. After checking the signal again, he was shocked to find that Bai Yingshi's location was near Qinghai Lake. This both surprised and angered him—the danger to Bai Yingshi had come from the sect she was friendly with!

Ye Fei was now very close to the largest lake in the country. To prepare for the potential battle, he stopped teleporting and instead ran toward the location.

This is it! Standing by the lake, which was as vast as the sea, Ye Fei felt a bit lost. The signal pointed to this area, but there was no specific location. Unless Bai Yingshi sent another signal, it would be hard to find her. Unfortunately, she didn't.

Helpless, Ye Fei activated his qinggong and began running across the vast lake, releasing his spiritual sense to search every inch of the area.

Fortunately, the earlier signal had been accurate, and Ye Fei's spiritual sense had expanded significantly, speeding up his search. Finally, after more than half an hour, he found traces of Bai Yingshi, the most beautiful woman in the martial arts world.

"Seeing" where the beauty was, Ye Fei was speechless. She was in a space nearly a kilometer deep under the lake.

The area was vast and empty, with a square cage-like structure in the center. Bai Yingshi sat quietly inside, her face pale and extremely weak. Beside her lay a young girl in white—her disciple, Bai You'er.

Silently, Ye Fei teleported to the underwater space. At that moment, Bai Yingshi, who had been meditating with her eyes closed, seemed to sense his presence. She slowly opened her stunningly beautiful eyes and smiled softly.

"You're here?" Her tone suggested she wasn't surprised at how quickly Ye Fei had arrived.

"I'm here!" Ye Fei smiled back. At that moment, he felt an unspoken tacit understanding with Bai Yingshi, even though they hadn't truly been together yet.

Stepping forward, Ye Fei grabbed the bars of the cage, which were as thick as an arm and tried to pull them apart. To his surprise, the bars, made of some unknown material, didn't budge.

"Don't waste your energy," Bai Yingshi said, struggling to stand up but failing halfway and sitting back down.

"This thing is connected to the entire lake's energy through a formation. It's almost impossible to break with sheer force. Otherwise, we would've escaped long ago."

Seeing how much weaker Bai Yingshi was than he had imagined, Ye Fei felt both heartache and anger. He scolded her, "Why did you wait until now to send the signal? Do you think you're invincible?"

Though Ye Fei's tone was harsh, Bai Yingshi wasn't upset. Instead, she broke her usual calm demeanor and smiled sweetly.

"You're the protagonist, after all. Of course, you have to make your grand entrance at the most critical moment. How else could you win the heart of this beauty?"

She paused, seeing Ye Fei's expression soften, then added, "Alright, enough of that. Do you have any food? We haven't eaten in over ten days. We're starving."

Even though Ye Fei had long known Bai Yingshi's feelings for him, the two had never shared any particularly intimate words or actions.

But now, Bai Yingshi first teased him playfully, then unabashedly asked him for food, showing a level of closeness that hadn't been there before.

Naturally, Ye Fei was thrilled. With a smile, he said, "Of course I've got food, but let's get you out of here first, okay?"
