Chen Hao didnât dare to continue his imagination, especially about the streak of black light which disappeared.
It was like a timed bomb resting in his mind.
âBy the way, whereâs Tie Cheng?â Chen Hao suddenly recovered himself.
âThe Young Sect Master was in a deep coma. He mostly suffered from outer wounds and injuries, but his leg was seriously injured. He woke up half a month ago, and heâs still bedridden now,â the guard explained.
âThatâs good then!â
It was quite dramatic how Tie Cheng and Chen Hao met. However, before Chen Hao fainted, Tie Cheng risked his life to protect him. Chen Hao was quite touched because of that.
âApart from both of us, did you find anyone else? Did you detect any signals from Miss Gu?â Chen Hao asked.
âYoung Master Chen, we had been searching for seven days and seven nights, but we didnât find any trace of her!â the guards said.
Upon hearing this, Chen Hao quietly blamed himself.
He wanted to protect her himself when he brought her under the sea.
But he couldnât even protect himself, and it was because of him Gu Yuxiao went missing. It was unknown if she was dead or alive.
If she didnât follow me, she would probably be safe.
Chen Hao clenched his fists.
Initially, he thought that he could travel anywhere on Earth with his power.
However, it was just some wishful thinking to deceive himself.
Merely some small Spirit Flowers had already rendered him powerless. If it werenât for his prior arrangementâasking his men to pick him upâhe would probably be dead under the sea right now.
What happened to Gu Yuxiao was the most unfortunate.
Iâm sorry! Chen Haoâs face was pale.
Looking at Chen Haoâs expression, Fang Jiannanâs joy was replaced by endless disappointment.
How could she be so lucky to let Chen Hao remember her as such?
Ha! If Iâm the one who died, Chen Hao probably wonât be this devastated.
Chen Hao looked at the Longevity Coffin. It didnât look fake to him.
The girl whom I savedâwas she really the lady in white?
There are so many problems, one after another. Grandfather knew the origin of the Spirit Flower. After meeting Grandfather, I believe some of the problems will be solved.
Now that a month and a half has passed, his Holy Water Ritual has long started.
I wonder how Grandfather and his skilled men are doing right now.
I promised to join them after finding the female corpse, but I donât know where she has gone...
Bam!
Suddenly, a few bodyguardsâ screams were heard in the garden, followed by the sound of a wooden door being knocked open.
âWhat are you doing? You canât enter this place without anyone inviting you!â
Chen Hao ran out quickly and saw his bodyguards fighting a young lady who was around twenty years old.
Around ten of the bodyguards were lying on the floor, clutching their chests. They were already heavily injured.
The young lady, however, had a cold expression, warning people to stay away from her.
âYouâre asking for death!â The bodyguards attacked in a group again.
Boom!
When the young lady raised her hand, the bodyguards flew backwards one by one, like kites with broken strings. They crashed to the ground in disarray.
âStay back!â
Looking at the scene happening in front of him, Chen Haoâs eyelids fluttered violently.
He hurriedly stopped his guards from attacking again.
The young lady had makeup onâher eyeshadow was purplish black, and the color of her lipstick was quite dark.
She was also very beautiful.
Chen Hao had just seen her clearly now.
She was actually Yun QingâYun Lingâs niece, the kind hearted Yun Qing!
When Chen Hao met her last month, she even helped him kindly when he was prohibited from entering the Yun Family.
At that time, Chen Hao thought she was a rather sweet and warm girl. Nowadays, girls who were kind hearted like her had already ceased to exist in this world.
However, looking at her now, her temperament had changed too drastically.
Her gentleness was now replaced by arrogance and ruthlessness.
Moreover, she was just a normal girl.
Where did she get such strong Inner Energy? Even I have to surrender to her.
Chen Hao was surprised.
âYun Qing, what are you doing?â Chen Hao asked tentatively.
âI came here to see you!â
With hands behind her back, Yun Qing looked at Chen Hao through a pair of ghostly eyes, as if she was looking at a person whom she hadnât seen for a long time.
âYun Qing, thanks for having that kind thought. But the way you visitâisnât it a little overboard?â Chen Hao looked at the grunting bodyguards on the ground.
âWho asked them to stop me? If I wasnât worrying about you getting angry, I would chop off all their heads at once! Itâs all because of you that I didnât do that. Look at how important you are to me!â
While speaking, Yun Qing walked toward Chen Hao alluringly.
No one would ever treat a human life as if it was childâs play, especially not Yun Qing, who would sob even when cats and dogs died.
âWait a minute! You⦠You are not Yun Qing! Who are you? Yun Qing is not like this!â Chen Hao asked coldly.
âYouâre always like this! No matter what I did, you always suspected me! Even though I lie, I will never lie to you! But, even now, you still suspected everything that I did!â Yun Qingâs eyes suddenly became extremely resentful.
âI donât know what youâre talking about, but I know youâre not Yun Qing!â
âIs it important whether or not Iâm Yun Qing? Most importantly, we will be together from now onwards.
No one will steal you from my side ever again!â Yun Qing suddenly smiled vindictively.
She came to Chen Hao and examined his face in detail. When she raised her hand, wanting to caress his face, he quickly took a step back.
Yun Qingâs hands hung mid-air.
She looked at Chen Hao and smiled. âAlright, I shanât tease you anymore. Let me tell you the reason for coming hereâtomorrow is an auspicious day, letâs get married! Youâre given a day to prepare.â
âMarried?â Chen Hao was shocked.
âI have a fiancée. How can I marry you? Moreover, Iâm three to four years older than you!â
Chen Hao knew that Yun Qing had big changes. She probably wasnât even Yun Qing anymore.
But Chen Hao couldnât gauge her true strength in such a short time.
However, he also didnât want to reveal it unless necessary .
âI donât care! Anyway, I want us to get married tomorrow! I want to announce to the world about our relationship!â Yun Qing then turned to leave after she finished speaking.
âWait a minute! Who do you think you are? Hao has someone he loves. Do you think he will marry you just because you said so?â Fang Jiannan stood forward and stopped her.
Yun Qing, who was walking toward the entrance, suddenly stopped in her tracks.
She tilted her face slightly and looked at Fang Jiannan sideways.
âI hate every woman around him! And I hate women like you, who dare to disobey me, even more!â Her mean voice sent shivers down everyoneâs spines.
Suddenly, she held out her palms and applied a suction force.
Fang Jiannanâs entire body floated toward her instantly.
âJiannan!â Chen Hao immediately stretched his hands to pull her back.
However, before he could grab her elbows, he met a gush of strong Inner Energy.
With a loud bang, Chen Hao was shocked as he suddenly staggered backward.
His palm was forcefully torn apart, and veins were protruding from his elbows from the shock. Blood oozed from his elbows and palms immediately.
Fang Jiannan, on another hand, had reached Yun Qing and she was strangled by her.
