Chapter 243: If Dating a Rich Woman Had a Rating

Lu Xingzhou took a few bottles of snake blood; Ye Tinglan, scowling, stored the entire snake in her ring, who knew how large her ring space was.

Neither spoke during the blood extraction, looking exactly like a quarreling young couple.

Whoever scowled, as long as that face was scowling while wearing a man's outer robe, looked like a young couple.

"Now?" Ye Tinglan put away the snake corpse, expressionless: "What's the next step?"

Lu Xingzhou looked at her with amusement.

Usually, this Holy Master made decisions wherever she went; now she wasn't using a bit of brain, instinctively asking him the next step.

"Before, we didn't go underwater because we didn't want to enter its home territory; this water is mostly corrosive, making combat unfavorable in such a place. Now that the snake is dead, this underwater work means nothing to you; just go down directly."

"That's it?"

"That's it; otherwise what?"

"I thought the Judge my lord would surely have a brilliant theory, but it turns out it's just this thing anyone could think of."

Lu Xingzhou was truly at a loss for words: "Even if I have ideas, it's still eating when it's time to eat and walking when it's time to walk; what unique difference can be invented for such self-evident things?"

"Can't you also sit in a wheelchair?"

"Fine, fine, fine, I'll sit in a wheelchair for you to see." Lu Xingzhou sat in the wheelchair, opened a shield, and dove directly.

Ye Tinglan cursed unhappily in her mouth, but actually worried greatly about his safety diving alone, so she hurriedly followed down.

Besides corrosiveness and slight toxicity, there were indeed no other peculiarities in the water; let alone fish and shrimp, even microorganisms were gone, it seemed the Black Snake had been starving fiercely in the secret realm for so many years.

Sensing the toxicity in the water, Ye Tinglan detected components belonging to Lu Xingzhou's poison dantian, her face taut as she said: "You said poisoning counts as farting in a room."

Lu Xingzhou said casually: "Yes, so what?"

"So does this count as farting in the quilt and then stuffing your head inside?"

Lu Xingzhou was dumbfounded: "No, you definitely aren't my Mr., speak, who is the imposter?"

"Yuan Muyu is the imposter."

"..." If it were her, she would indeed say such things.

But then again, this Mr. cared for Yuan Muyu much more than imagined...

"Speak, what exactly is your relationship with Yuan Muyu?" Ye Tinglan finally couldn't hold back and asked.

Lu Xingzhou fell silent for a moment, speaking softly: "Once she was half my world... the other half was A'nuo."

"Very deep affection?" Ye Tinglan sneered.

Lu Xingzhou considered her perspective: A yellow-haired brat driving a ghost-fire wheelchair took his sister away, turning a perfectly good girl into a mental little sister, then turned around wanting to take him too; was there anything in the world more infuriating than this?

"But in fact..." Lu Xingzhou weighed his words for a moment, then said: "She and I were never together. And whoever I looked for later has nothing to do with her."

Ye Tinglan turned her head to look at him, finally asking no more.

At least it wasn't that kind of thing with the sister, the feeling was relatively less disgusting. And since the two never started, it didn't seem like stealing...

Crap, why think about this? Anyway, she wouldn't be with him!

Amidst wild thoughts, the two dove to the lake bottom.

There were very clear traces of the Black Snake coiling on the lake bottom, along with some bone fragments.

Lu Xingzhou dug down, collecting the larger bone fragments to study later. Ye Tinglan ignored him, calculating the precise location of the spatial rift on her own.

Only when the location was truly found did Lu Xingzhou realize why the Black Snake couldn't get out.

This was likely the spatial chaos formed when the Longevity Treasure Pearl crashed to the ground, vibrating due to the pearl's special energy. So its size was just a pit formed by the pearl hitting the ground, basically just slightly wider than one person passing through; that massive Black Snake would find it hard even for its scales to pass.

But now the problem arises, how can two people pass through such a small hole?

That certain burden absolutely lacks the ability to traverse space independently; must be carried...

The two stared at each other for a long time; Ye Tinglan finally, with a taut face, said: "Put away the wheelchair."

Lu Xingzhou obediently put away the wheelchair. The qi shield he condensed himself was far less enduring and long-lasting than Ye Tinglan's; once the wheelchair's water-avoiding shield was retracted, he instantly became a drowned rat underwater.

Ye Tinglan looked at him with disdain: "Come here."

Lu Xingzhou obediently swam over.

Ye Tinglan, expressionless, embraced him; the two faced each other, tightly pressed together.

Lu Xingzhou held his breath, unable to speak underwater, obediently feeling the warmth of the mature lady's chest.

Obviously rising and falling more than usual, showing she wasn't as calm as her face suggested.

Ye Tinglan was nearly furious inside; a moment ago she was thinking about how to keep her distance from him later, the next moment she was tightly hugging him like this. What a terrible place, it was as if the Heavenly Dao was deliberately tripping her up.

Ye Tinglan, puffed up with anger, hopped with him, and the two, tightly embracing, entered the spatial rift.

The Holy Master of Tianyao has been missing for nearly a whole night; she went in at dusk, and now the sky is almost bright.

The night in the glacier is longer than elsewhere; surely this fine night shouldn't be bitter and short... but the people of Tianyao Holy Land scattered across the glacier searching, searched all night and still couldn't find a trace of them.

Of course, everyone actually didn't really search hard; if the Sect Master was really making love with a little puppy and you found them without knowing your place, did you want to die?

Just one night, the people of Tianyao Holy Land stated their emotions were stable.

Elder Su Yuan wandered aimlessly in the southern part of the glacier, also observing the movements of the Tian Shuang Kingdom. He didn't know what changes Si Han would stir up upon returning this time.

If something big really happens, with the Holy Master gone, who will make the decisions...

The Holy Master cultivated in seclusion for so many years, why suddenly take a liking to a little puppy at this moment, truly strange.

While worrying, tremors occurred in the ground far away, as if a strange beast was emerging from the ice.

Su Yuan's heart skipped a beat; this glacier was truly restless recently, what strange beast was it now?

He was also bold due to his high skill, flying directly over to investigate.

The ground ahead rumbled loudly; the ice surface arched and arched, beginning to crack. Before long, with a "Bang," a large bump emerged, and with a "Crash," a man and a woman embraced and jumped out.

The ice was blasted open by the woman.

But the woman was wearing a man's clothes.

Seeing the woman's face, Su Yuan lost his ability to think, floating blankly in midair, at a loss.

"Elder Su." The woman released the man in her arms, her expression calm: "Where in the glacier is this?"

Su Yuan revived a little: "The southern edge. Below is the territory of the Hanlan Sect."

Lu Xingzhou: "..."

How is it this place again...

"So far..." Ye Tinglan pondered for a moment, then asked: "Then why are you here?"

"L-Looking for the Sect Master." Su Yuan spoke softly: "Also patrolling the southern edge, to see if Si Han has made any moves."

"What is there for me to look for!" Ye Tinglan's voice rose: "Could I possibly be in trouble? Meddlesome!"

Su Yuan hung his head, stole a glance at the clothes on the Sect Master's body, then lowered his eyelids again, concealing his expression of unwillingness to look directly.

"Um..." Lu Xingzhou interjected: "Where is my A'nuo?"

Daring to interrupt directly while the Sect Master was angry... Su Yuan stole another glance at Ye Tinglan, but Ye Tinglan showed no reaction.

Su Yuan's heart trembled, and he hurriedly said: "Miss Lu and Ji Wenchuan are waiting at the exact spot where the two of you disappeared. Miss Lu said that as long as Young Master Lu returns, he will definitely come to the original spot to find her; there is no need to search everywhere."

"So you two have lived such a long life and still aren't as clear-sighted as a little girl?" Ye Tinglan was furious.

What is there to search for? Just stay put and wait, couldn't you? If we come out, won't we come find you? Now I'm seen holding a man while wearing men's clothes! Ye Tinglan was practically ready to die of anger.

This is just concern for you... Su Yuan smiled apologetically: "Um, Sect Master, shall we go now?"

Ye Tinglan said angrily: "How can I go like this? Go tell them to disband and return to the sect. I have other urgent matters to attend to in the Tianshuang Kingdom; I will return shortly."

In truth, she had no broken matters to attend to in the Tianshuang Kingdom; at most, she needed to find a place to change clothes. Of course, she couldn't say that directly; she had already lost all face.

Lu Xingzhou also figured there was no need to bring A'nuo along for such a matter; with Ji Wenchuan present, her safety was assured, so he said: "Please also convey a message to A'nuo and Old Ji: I will go to the Tianshuang Kingdom and return shortly. Trouble Old Ji to take A'nuo to Xiazhou first, and let A'nuo treat her Uncle Ji."

Su Yuan was full of complaints: Dog couple, one abandoning the sect, the other abandoning friends and disciples, and still complaining they weren't sick of being together all night?

Of course, he dared not show it on his face, so he could only smile apologetically: "Very well, I will go notify them immediately."

Su Yuan slipped away with a "slish" sound. The dog couple remained in place, watching him depart. Only then did Ye Tinglan grind her teeth: "It's all your fault; how can I face anyone now?"

"Speaking reasonably... your clothes being torn is not my fault; I was actually the one shielding your exposed skin..." Lu Xingzhou looked up at the sky. It would be even better if people saw us like this; as long as others think we are a pair, the probability of us actually becoming a pair increases greatly.

Anyway, pursuing her is now out in the open; a dead pig fears no boiling water.

How could Ye Tinglan not see the man's little schemes, yet she had no way to deal with him; she could only grit her silver teeth, grab him, and dart like lightning toward Hanlan City.

Hanlan City, a clothing shop.

The Shopkeeper and the nearby neighbors, upon seeing the two appear, had their eyes bulging like copper bells.

This man fought here yesterday morning; everyone remembered it vividly.

This man had brought a golden, glamorous beauty to buy clothes here just the morning before, and now, early this morning, he had brought another glamorous beauty to buy clothes here again. Both sisters were so beautiful and possessed such presence.

Eating soft rice to such a degree that it makes heaven and earth weep and ghosts cry; his level must be super-premium, right?

"What, do their expressions mean they recognize you?" Ye Tinglan asked coldly.

Someone outside the door, hidden in the crowd, spoke up: "Beautiful sister, don't be deceived by this scum. He was just here yesterday accompanying another beauty to buy clothes. If you don't believe me, look; there are only a few scattered items left in the shop. The clothes were all bought up by yesterday's beauty; the Shopkeeper didn't even have time to restock."

Facing Ye Tinglan's man-eating gaze, Lu Xingzhou broke out in a cold sweat.
