Chapter 457: Lord Lord Changping, if you want to die, then I will help you along the way

~8 min read 1,526 words

Great Qin, Xianyang City, Mansion of the Ninth Young Master.

After resolving the information sent back by the Profound Heaven Sect and the Watchmen, Ying Ying Ziyu felt that the progress of his plans would gradually slow down in the short term.

The various dynasties and Jianghu factions throughout the Central Plains had already been secretly pushed into a vortex by Ying Ying Ziyu. Now, all Ying Ying Ziyu had to do was wait for this vortex to end, and then he could easily pluck the fruits of victory.

"Is this what life is supposed to be like?"

"Basking in the sun, enjoying life; fighting and killing every day is truly boring to the extreme."

Ying Ying Ziyu was sitting on a rattan chair in the courtyard, basking in the sun. At this moment, his heart was very relaxed.

"I wonder what those two little girls, Huang Rong and Xiaolongnü, are doing."

"Come to think of it, ever since they arrived in Changancheng, apart from that one time Senior Dugu Senior Dugu Qiubai came to Changancheng to find me and I went out, I haven't accompanied them at all."

"Given that little girl Huang Rong's temperament, she must be busy with nothing at her restaurant. As for Xiaolongnü, she will definitely be accompanying Huang Rong."

"Otherwise, why not take advantage of the fact that there's nothing to do today and go keep them company?"

Ying Ying Ziyu said softly while basking in the sun.

Whenever he thought of Huang Rong, a little girl dressed in yellow, chattering away and full of mischief, would appear in Ying Ying Ziyu's mind. In Ying Ying Ziyu's mind, Huang Rong had always been an optimist who had no worries and was smiling all day long.

As for Xiaolongnü, she was always in white, like a fairy from heaven descending to the mortal world. Except when she saw him, she always wore an aloof expression, as if she were untainted by worldly concerns.

"Sigh, I really do miss them after not seeing them for a few days. I'll go see them today!"

Just after he finished speaking, the figure of Ying Ying Ziyu, who had been half-lying on the rattan chair, turned into specks of starlight in the blink of an eye.

The next moment, Ying Ying Ziyu appeared on the third floor of the restaurant opened by Huang Rong.

This was where Huang Rong and Xiaolongnü rested.

Just after arriving here, Ying Ying Ziyu heard Huang Rong chattering away to Xiaolongnü about something.

"Sister Long, do you think that big bad guy will forget about us two?!"

"Why hasn't the big bad guy come to the restaurant to see us for so many days? The restaurant isn't very far from the Ninth Prince's Mansion, and besides, with the big bad guy's cultivation, he could just 'whoosh' and be here, just like when he went to the Great Qin border to duel Senior Dugu Senior Dugu Qiubai!"

"He must be thinking about the other sisters every day and has forgotten about us two!"

"Otherwise, why don't we go to the Ninth Prince's Mansion to find him tonight?"

As she spoke, a hint of cunning appeared in Huang Rong's eyes. She felt that if Ying Ying Ziyu saw them, he would definitely be very pleasantly surprised.

Even someone as lacking in human warmth as Xiaolongnü had many more smiles on her face after interacting with the clever and mischievous Huang Rong.

Just as Huang Rong was about to continue, a very slender hand suddenly pressed down on Huang Rong's head.

Just as Huang Rong was about to throw a tantrum, a very magnetic voice drifted lightly into her ears:

"I was wondering why I've been sneezing constantly at the Ninth Prince's Mansion these past two days."

"So it was you little thing secretly bad-mouthing me in the restaurant!"

"Alright, I've caught you now!"

Hearing that it was Ying Ying Ziyu's voice, Huang Rong remembered that she had just been speaking ill of him, and her face turned red all of a sudden.

Even Huang Rong, who was usually very carefree, didn't know what to say at this moment, and instead buried her face directly in Ying Ying Ziyu's chest, shouting loudly:

"Brother Ying Ziyu, you're bad!!!"

"To think you'd eavesdrop on people!"

Now Huang Rong wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into. She hadn't expected at all that while she was bad-mouthing Ying Ying Ziyu, Ying Ying Ziyu had been standing outside the door the whole time.

Xiaolongnü, who was on the side, couldn't help but laugh after seeing this scene, and then she softly called out to Ying Ying Ziyu:

"Brother Ying Ziyu."

Seeing this, Ying Ying Ziyu nodded gently at Xiaolongnü, and then began to tease Huang Rong in his arms again.

"I originally wanted to take you and Long'er out for a stroll in Changancheng today, but now it seems you aren't very willing to go with me."

"Then I can only spend some quality time with Long'er."

Hearing Ying Ying Ziyu's words, Huang Rong shouted loudly at Ying Ying Ziyu like a cat whose fur had been ruffled:

"I'm willing! Who said I wasn't willing?!"

"I want to go too! Trying to ditch me? Impossible!"

Watching Huang Rong acting spoiled, Ying Ying Ziyu and Xiaolongnü couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Hearing their laughter, Huang Rong realized that Ying Ying Ziyu had been teasing her, and then she shouted even more shyly:

"Brother Ying Ziyu, you stinky bad guy!"

After the three of them messed around for a while longer, Ying Ying Ziyu took Huang Rong and Xiaolongnü out onto the streets of Changancheng.

Looking at the dazzling array of goods in Changancheng, although Huang Rong and Xiaolongnü had strolled around together before, they still felt it was very interesting with Ying Ying Ziyu accompanying them.

Especially Huang Rong, who was as happy as a little girl who had just left home, full of curiosity about everything in front of her.

One moment she would go to a street vendor to pick up a mask to wear on her head, and the next she would go to another vendor to grab a skewer of candied haws.

"Do I look good?! Sister Long, you should wear a mask too, so others won't be able to see what we look like!"

"This candied haw is really sweet, Brother Ying Ziyu, come and have a taste."

Along the way, Huang Rong was happily playing around, and Ying Ying Ziyu and Xiaolongnü were often made to laugh by Huang Rong.

However, after walking for two more streets, the expression on Huang Rong's face suddenly became serious, and then she leaned close to Ying Ying Ziyu and Xiaolongnü and whispered:

"Brother Ying Ziyu, Sister Long, it seems we're being followed."

"Those few people behind seem to have been following us the whole time!"

Hearing Huang Rong's words, Xiaolongnü also nodded gently and said:

"To be precise, ever since the three of us left the inn, those few people behind have been following us."

"Do you need me to take action and deal with them?"

Xiaolongnü also revealed that aloof temperament of hers at this moment. She looked at Ying Ying Ziyu, wanting him to make the decision; after all, this was Changancheng, the capital of Great Qin.

If it were at any other time, if someone were secretly following them, both Huang Rong and Xiaolongnü would have long since taken action to drag them out. But now that Ying Ying Ziyu was by their side, given his status as the Ninth Prince, if Huang Rong and Xiaolongnü took action and caused Ying Ying Ziyu to be caught in a compromising position, that was the last thing they wanted to see.

Moreover, with Xiaolongnü and Huang Rong's strength, they had actually long since noticed the tracking by those people behind them, but today Ying Ying Ziyu had finally come to keep them company.

Neither of them wanted to easily break this hard-won peace.

Hearing Huang Rong and Xiaolongnü's words, Ying Ying Ziyu just touched their heads with his hands, and then said very gently:

"Since we're out to have fun, then let's have a good time."

"As for those clowns behind us, we don't need to pay them any mind. Once we've had our fill of fun, we can just suppress them with a backhand."

As for the group of people behind them, with Ying Ying Ziyu's cultivation, he had naturally noticed them long ago.

It was just that Ying Ying Ziyu didn't want to drag them out here; doing so would only ruin the mood of him accompanying Huang Rong and Xiaolongnü on their stroll.

After the stroll was over, Ying Ying Ziyu thought it would be a good idea to drag them out and use them as an evening entertainment project.

As for who sent people to track him, Ying Ying Ziyu already had a candidate in his mind.

"Lord Lord Changping, if you want to die, then I'll just lend you a hand!"

"Save you from jumping around under my nose!"

Ying Ying Ziyu thought to himself.
