Chapter 627: Ye Xiaobu

Ye Lin's words left Xu Minxuan frozen in place, and then a rosy flush spread across that rugged face.

"You... you were that person back then?"

Although she had been in a coma just after ascending, Xu Minxuan actually vaguely remembered that someone had climbed onto her and put her through special training.

But Xu Minxuan hadn't thought much of it.

Because from childhood to adulthood, any man who saw her would keep a respectful distance, wishing they could stay eight hundred meters away from her; how could any man have taken advantage of her coma to train her?

Therefore, Xu Minxuan had simply assumed it was a dream.

But looking at it now, perhaps it wasn't a dream, but reality!

Xu Minxuan's heart began to thump wildly.

Thump!

Thump!

Thump!

That massive sound, like a beating war drum, almost made Ye Lin think King's King Engine had started up.

Seeing the sincere and fanatical look in Xu Minxuan's eyes, Ye Lin was nearly scared out of his wits and hurriedly explained.

"No, no, no! It wasn't me! I don't have such courage; the true culprit is this man! Mr. Qiu Weizhi!"

Ye Lin pointed at the unconscious Qiu Weizhi on the ground.

Old Qiu, oh Old Qiu, I never expected you to have such a taste!

You hid it deeper than anyone!

Ye Lin couldn't help but feel a wave of emotion in his heart; he had always prided himself on being a ruthless man, but compared to Qiu Weizhi, he felt he wasn't even worth mentioning.

This guy was truly ruthless beyond measure.

Although he had been bewitched by Liu Ruyan when he laid hands on Xu Minxuan, it still made Ye Lin admire him greatly; Qiu Weizhi should change his name to Old Kuai, he was just too stylish.

"Then what do you mean by bringing him to find me?" Xu Minxuan looked at Ye Lin in confusion.

"This Qiu Weizhi has done every evil deed! Back then, he dared to take advantage of you, Senior Sister Xu Minxuan, while you were unconscious, and relying on his status as the team leader of the Spirit Spring Mining Area, he forcibly tarnished your purity!"

"I, Ye Lin, truly couldn't stand by and watch, so I captured him alive and brought him before you to deal with as you please!"

Ye Lin spoke with righteous indignation and kicked Qiu Weizhi directly in front of Xu Minxuan.

"In other words, he didn't come voluntarily?" Xu Minxuan's expression turned cold.

"Ah... well, not exactly. He... he was slightly willing, maybe about forty percent."

Ye Lin was stunned; why was this plot not going right? Upon seeing the person who had tarnished her while she was unconscious, shouldn't Xu Minxuan be furious and chop Qiu Weizhi into mincemeat?

If it hadn't been for the sake of keeping Qiu Weizhi to sell to Xu Minxuan, he would have had Ye Lin chop him up back when they left the mining area.

"Then take him away; I have long since stopped wanting to hold a grudge over what happened back then."

Xu Minxuan shook her head and turned to leave; her broad back looked like a city wall, giving off a deep sense of security.

"Hey, no, wait a minute!"

Ye Lin reached out, wanting to grab Xu Minxuan.

His plan was to use Qiu Weizhi to trade for a spot to enter the Immortal Cloud Sect; how could he let Xu Minxuan just walk away like this?

But when he placed his hand on Xu Minxuan's shoulder, Ye Lin realized that he couldn't hold her back at all!

"Forbidden Curse: Burning Reincarnation!"

Blood-colored flames erupted from Ye Lin's body, and fine dragon scales began to emerge on his arms.

Yet even so, he still couldn't slow Xu Minxuan's pace by even a fraction.

Cold sweat broke out on Ye Lin instantly.

There was no immortal power fluctuation on the Xu Minxuan before him, which meant that this woman was dragging him along entirely by the strength of her physical body.

How terrifying must a physical body be to possess such monstrous strength?

Ye Lin did not doubt for a second that even a great cultivator at the Profound Connection Realm couldn't withstand a slap from Xu Minxuan's pure physical strength.

Seeing that he truly couldn't hold Xu Minxuan back, Ye Lin had no choice but to use his final trump card and start his "mouth-jutsu."

"Xu Minxuan! Do you really not want to hold a grudge? Do you really not take what happened that day to heart? Then what was that surprise you showed just now?"

"Don't pretend you don't care, unless you truly don't! If you leave today, are you sure you won't look back years from now and feel regret?"

"If you are stubborn, you will lose many things!"

Xu Minxuan's footsteps finally stopped.

Seeing that his mouth-jutsu was effective, Ye Lin hurriedly continued.

"I know you feel inferior because of your appearance, but isn't that essentially a form of discrimination against women?"

Xu Minxuan turned her head, her eyes full of confusion as she looked at Ye Lin.

Ye Lin cleared his throat and continued to bluff.

"Think about it yourself: throughout history, emperors, generals, and powerful cultivators—those capable, important figures—who cares about their appearance? Everyone only cares about their great achievements!"

"Yet, don't these people have beauties by their sides? And no one thinks they aren't worthy of enjoying the company of beauties, right?"

"I ask you, are they worthy?"

Xu Minxuan pondered very seriously for a while and nodded.

"Worthy."

"Exactly! And the same logic applies to women, of course! Gender equality! Women's safety!"

Ye Lin nodded heavily.

"Think about it carefully: as a girl, you do have some flaws in your appearance, but what is your status? An inner sect disciple of the Immortal Cloud Sect! And your strength? It is incomparably formidable!"

"By comparison, what does this Qiu Weizhi have? He is just a small team leader in the Spirit Spring Mining Area, and his strength is only at the early stage of the Spirit Gathering Realm. What is he compared to you?"

"Having the chance to have had intimate contact with you is Qiu Weizhi's honor!"

Xu Minxuan blinked.

She always felt that what Ye Lin said made a little sense, but it also felt like something was not quite right.

"Remember! Xu Minxuan, you don't just represent yourself now; you represent all women!"

"If ugly men can enjoy beauties, why can't unattractive girls enjoy handsome men?"

"If you leave today because of inferiority, that is a betrayal of all women!"

"Perhaps your appearance has flaws, but your ability and talent have completely smoothed over that flaw; you have no need to feel inferior!"

Ye Lin persuaded Xu Minxuan earnestly; while the other party was still dazed, he unleashed his killing move, jumping up to look Xu Minxuan in the eyes, and said affectionately.

"You are a girl who remains calm in the face of change; small setbacks will not affect your charm. Confidence is in your heart, and you are in my eyes."

"Remember! Angels are with you; you were beautiful all along!"
