Chapter 18: Third Senior Sister's Might

Leng Qingyue wore a faint smile, yet she said nothing, simply walking slowly toward Zhou Tian.

Right, calculating this time, the Fourth Senior Sister has already turned eighteen, which means I can obtain her Ziyang Holy Body?

Thinking of this, Zhou Tian became even more excited.

"Fourth Senior Sister, you've finally returned—I've missed you to death!"

Zhou Tian spoke those words, let out a cheer, and lunged straight at Leng Qingyue.

Zhou Tian reached out with both hands, intending to pull Leng Qingyue into his embrace.

As long as I hold Leng Qingyue, I can also enjoy this exquisite Ziyang Holy Body.

By then my strength will greatly increase; what is there to worry about with a mere Yang Jun?

But just as Zhou Tian's arms were about to wrap around Leng Qingyue, he suddenly saw Leng Qingyue before him give him another radiant smile.

One smile startled his soul; Zhou Tian only felt that all his strength burst forth in that instant.

If I can obtain this lovely person, what else could I fail to achieve?

But at that moment, Zhou Tian's vision blurred.

Leng Qingyue waved her right hand, slowly thrusting a palm toward Zhou Tian.

Zhou Tian was caught off guard, and this slap landed squarely on him.

With a bang, Zhou Tian leapt into the air and fell straight down.

"Junior Martial Brother, your kung fu has regressed."

A coquettish voice sounded, and immediately Zhou Tian felt a figure flash before his eyes.

Just as he was about to fall to the ground, that figure appeared before him, and he landed in a warm embrace.

"Third Senior Sister?"

Zhou Tian widened his eyes, looking at the woman before him.

This is no longer Leng Qingyue; she is a woman in a red dress, more alluring than Leng Qingyue, with a devilish figure.

This is no stranger—it is Zhou Tian's Third Senior Sister, Mo Qingyan.

That move just now—wasn't it the Third Senior Sister's supreme skill, the Airborne Pavilion?

Zhou Tian thought so, and let out a gentle breath.

His eyes fixed on Mo Qingyan before him, his heart stirred again.

Like Leng Qingyue, Mo Qingyan possesses astonishing martial prowess, and besides that, she is utterly obedient to Zhou Tian; most importantly, they are both pure and chaste maidens.

Watching Mo Qingyan's nimble, graceful movements, like a fairy, Zhou Tian felt a flicker of anticipation.

"Greetings, Third Senior Sister! Welcome back, Third Senior Sister!"

Zhou Tian glanced at Mo Qingyan, immediately straightened his posture, and spoke respectfully.

Zhou Tian's eyes were fixed on Mo Qingyan before him.

Compared to Leng Qingyue, Mo Qingyan's allure is greater.

Mo Qingyan possesses more coldness and arrogance than Leng Qingyue; although she wields an irresistible charm, when facing men she invariably displays a domineering, aloof aura that makes them dare not profane her.

It is precisely this allure that makes Zhou Tian yearn even more to possess Mo Qingyan.

However, precisely because Mo Qingyan possesses such a quality, she normally does not give Zhou Tian even a second glance.

Thus Zhou Tian understands all the more that Mo Qingyan will not so easily bow her head to him.

Only after I become stronger will I surely be able to conquer her.

"And Qingyue?"

Mo Qingyan is indeed famed for her aloofness; while speaking, she also wore an expression of indifference.

"In reply to Third Senior Sister's words."

Upon Mo Qingyan's words, Zhou Tian hurriedly responded.

However, she exaggerated the events, recounting them with embellishment.

She said whatever was advantageous to her.

"What? Leng Qingyue missing? I say, are you all idiots? Clearly he's just a worthless prince, yet you can't even handle him?"

Mo Qingyan let out a cold snort and spoke repeatedly.

Zhou Tian dared not argue or speak much, merely lowering his head with an embarrassed expression.

"Junior Martial Brother, I know you've been waiting for Qingyue's Ziyang Holy Body, but you ought to think this through."

"In the way of martial arts, true strength does not rely on external aid or others."

"You should understand that only by raising your own strength and achieving a certain level of ability can you accomplish yourself, got it?"

"Countless external forces are no match for wholehearted cultivation."

"Look at you—you only seek external help, and now you can't even deal with a worthless prince!"

Mo Qingyan glanced at Zhou Tian and spoke in a cold voice.

"Yes, Third Senior Sister."

Zhou Tian felt indignant, unwilling to accept it.

Faced with this, he looked at Mo Qingyan before him and clasped his fists again.

"Third Senior Sister, it's not that I don't want to deal with Yang Jun."

"It's just that the Sixth Princess Yun Xiyue has always been protecting this worthless fellow, leaving me with no opening."

"After all, rashly eliminating Yang Jun would surely provoke the displeasure of the Great Xia Imperial Household."

Zhou Tian hastily clasped his fists and repeatedly spoke to Mo Qingyan.

While speaking, he also fixed his gaze on Mo Qingyan before him; though silent, his intentions were already revealed at this moment.

"A worthless prince is not enough to make me act."

Mo Qingyan, how could she not understand Zhou Tian's meaning? She snorted coldly and kept speaking.

"Then, what does Third Senior Sister intend to do? And how will she resolve this?"

Zhou Tian looked at Mo Qingyan, feeling somewhat stifled in his heart.

Could it be that I can't handle this Yang Jun, and even my own Third Senior Sister is unwilling to help me?

"Junior Brother, I had already inquired about this before I came."

"The envoys of the Sunshine State also seem interested in Yang Jun, so you can completely start from there."

"As for whether Yang Jun is colluding with the Sunshine State or has any secret conspiracies, those aren't very important."

"The most important point is that, when the time comes, as long as you lead troops to surround that place, right and wrong will be whatever you say."

Mo Qingyan gave a cold snort from her mouth; in that moment, Zhou Tian unconsciously nodded his head.

This move is truly wonderful!

Nowadays, this matter doesn't necessarily require any evidence.

As long as we catch something concrete, then when we seize Yang Jun, this matter—however it turns out—will still be up to us to decide.

If Yang Jun is thrown into prison, my status and position will be secured there.

Then, by simply finding an excuse and creating a little mishap, dealing with Yang Jun wouldn't be all that difficult, would it?

Moreover, if we can resolve this matter, then I could earn Mo Qingyan's favor and truly win the beauty's heart.

In that case, my strength will soar to the heavens!

"Senior Sister, rest assured—I'll act right away."

Yang Jun bowed slightly and, in a low voice, responded to Mo Qingyan.

Immediately, a battalion of the Phoenix-character Garrison City Guard set out.
