Chapter 698: Chapter 0616: Liluo in Trouble
The fireball descended from the sky, landing on the summit of a peak.
The captivating and soul-stirring Tina appeared, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth again.
"I didn’t expect his punch to be so ruthless, so strong, it severely wounded my internal organs. If he hadn’t spared my life, I might not have escaped death today!"
Her heart was filled with unparalleled shock, recalling the scene where Ye Qingfeng heavily injured her with the Fire Fist, sending a chill through her heart.
"He wasn’t using Xuan Power, so how was he able to hit me?"
This was a question she still couldn’t figure out, her confusion unresolved.
After hesitating for a moment, she opened a miniature computer, entering a secret website that required fingerprint recognition.
A dialog box popped up, and all that could be seen on the other end was darkness, but a cold voice emerged.
"Tina, how is the progress?"
Tina gently shook her head, spreading her hands helplessly: "There’s nothing I can do, Ye Jiujie is too arrogant and refuses to join us!"
The other side was silent for a moment before a cold snort came through.
"That ungrateful boy, thinking he can disregard everyone just because he reached the thirty-fifth on the War God List, he has no idea how terrifying our Century Court is!"
"Tina, as far as I know, Ye Jiujie has not cultivated Xuan Power. You can use your advantage as an Elemental Superpower User to teach him a lesson!"
Upon hearing this, the Flame Goddess Tina showed a bitter smile at the corner of her mouth.
"I...I did, but I failed!"
"What?"
An astonished voice came from the other side.
Tina coughed, fresh blood seeping from the corner of her mouth again.
"You’re injured?"
The voice on the other side sounded a bit surprised.
Tina gently nodded: "Yes, his punch severely injured me, hitting my true body!"
"Impossible!" The voice on the other side was unequivocal, "Our intelligence cannot be wrong. Although Ye Jiujie can defeat the combined forces of Doug and others, he does not possess Xuan Power, so how could he have harmed your true body?"
Tina shook her head repeatedly; this question baffled even her. Yet, the fact that Ye Qingfeng had grievously injured her with just one punch was indisputable.
The other side pondered for several seconds before speaking in a deep voice: "Since Ye Jiujie refuses to join us, he can only become our target for eradication; he must not be allowed to grow into another Dragon King!"
"However, his strength is unfathomable. To kill him, it will likely require King-level experts to act. This matter needs careful planning; you should return first!"
Tina closed the computer, a bitter smile crossing her lips.
She would never have imagined that her trip to Huaxia would end in such severe injury.
But thinking of the internal coalition within the Court that was about to jointly hunt down Ye Jiujie, a vengeful satisfaction filled her heart.
"Ye Jiujie? Hmph, no matter how much of a genius, no matter how strong, you cannot withstand the siege of my World Court. I will personally witness the fall of the world’s number one genius!"
She leapt, transforming into a ball of fire streaking across the sky, leaving a long trail of flame behind.
Under the night sky, Ye Qingfeng leisurely walked hand in hand with Ouyang Liluo in the park.
"This feeling is great, just like it was many years ago!"
Ouyang Liluo’s heart was at peace, wanting only to enjoy this moment of tranquility.
"Ouyang, there’s a question I hope you’ll answer seriously!"
Ye Qingfeng suddenly turned his head, his eyes filled with seriousness.
"Although I am Ye Jiujie, looking down on the world, my enemies are countless, most of whom hide in the shadows. By my side, it is extremely dangerous; aren’t you afraid?"
Ouyang Liluo looked directly at Ye Qingfeng, then smiled, resting her small face gently on his shoulder.
"I’m not afraid!" she said softly, "As long as I’m by your side, I’m not afraid of anything!"
"And... you will protect me, right?"
Ye Qingfeng gently stroked her hair, holding her tightly in his arms.
"Yes, I will protect you!"
"For you, I am not afraid to stand against the world!"
Zhonghai, East District.
Yang Beixuan had just left the gates of Fang Yi Group, wearing a sinister smile of a successful plot.
"Ouyang Liluo, you can’t escape now!"
"I told you, you are mine!"
Ye Qingfeng sat in the classroom, constantly recalling the scenes from yesterday’s encounter with the Flame Goddess Tina.
He indeed knew little about that miraculous Xuan Power, but he wasn’t afraid of these so-called Elemental Superpower Users at all.
No matter what element you become, Ye Qingfeng could wipe you out.
After all, who would have thought, Ye Qingfeng, with a War King realm, was capable of wielding the Heaven and Earth Power.
Even ordinary War Emperor Warriors found it difficult to command such power.
After all, even for War Emperor Warriors, the path to understanding the natural world was exceptionally challenging.
After class, he planned to find Ouyang Liluo, waiting at the classroom door, but didn’t see her; instead, he met Yue Xiang alone.
Yue Xiang’s gaze was complex, slightly nervous in front of Ye Qingfeng, as yesterday’s events were too astonishing.
"You came to see Liluo, right?"
Yue Xiang said softly: "She suddenly left school to go home this morning, and asked me to let you know!"
"Left school to go home?"
Ye Qingfeng was puzzled. If Ouyang Liluo went home, she should have called him, but he hadn’t received any notice, and she left so abruptly.
He took out his phone, realizing it was turned off. After returning to school last night, he fell asleep and forgot to charge it.
Back at the dormitory, Ye Qingfeng connected his phone to power, seeing a call record from Ouyang Liluo.
"Qingfeng, got a call from Dad this morning; my mom is sick, asking me to visit her. I was going to call you to join me, but your phone was off, so I went ahead. While I’m gone these days, don’t you dare have meals with other girls!"
Seeing the message, Ye Qingfeng’s lips curled into a smile.
He dialed Ouyang Liluo’s number, which was soon answered, her sweet voice coming through.
"Qingfeng, missing me already?"
Ye Qingfeng chuckled: "Little Ouyang, sorry, my phone was off before. You should be in Zhonghai now, right? Is Auntie’s illness serious? I’ll come over to find you!"
Ouyang Liluo’s voice was as gentle as willow catkins floating in the air, replying: "My mom’s fine, just a cold, but Dad exaggerated it. You don’t need to come; I’ll be back tomorrow. Remember, while I’m gone, don’t let other girls woo you!"
Ye Qingfeng laughed helplessly.
"Alright, then you stay with Auntie, and next time, I’ll go home with you!"
They talked for a long while before finally hanging up the phone.
The next day, Ye Qingfeng wanted to call to see if Ouyang Liluo had returned to school; the phone rang for a long time with no answer.
He wasn’t concerned and went out for lunch. Upon returning and calling again, this time Ouyang Liluo’s phone was turned off.
