Chapter 72: Swatting Mosquitoes (Bonus chapter for 6000 tips)
Ever since defeating Wushi, Wuhu, Wuxiang, and Wubao in the great hall and demonstrating absolute martial prowess, Yu Liancheng had all but solidified his status as the Old Knife Handle.
Of course, everyone knew that the previous Old Knife Handle was not in the villa; once he learned of this news, he would certainly not let the matter rest, and only after the two Old Knife Handles fought to determine a victor could the ownership of Ghost Villa be settled.
Night.
Night again.
The night was deep.
There were no lamps lit in the room, and the wind blew in from outside the window, very gentle, and within that gentleness was a hint of autumn's chill, like a lover's hand.
Yu Liancheng lay alone on the bed, yet he had not fallen asleep; his eyes were still wide open, and his spirit was quite alert.
No matter who it was, being able to subdue so many experts in the villa within a single day should make one feel excited, should make it difficult to fall asleep.
But not Yu Liancheng.
The people in Ghost Villa could not see the light of day, so they were not of much actual use to Yu Liancheng.
The reason he had come to Ghost Villa for a visit was merely to find something to do before the decisive battle at the Forbidden City, so as not to be too bored.
As for now.
He was waiting for someone.
He knew that at least one little troublemaker would come tonight.
The night was even quieter, so quiet that one could almost hear the sound of dew dripping from the branches and leaves onto the ground.
Just at this moment, he heard footsteps in the corridor.
The footsteps were very light, just like a little cat stealing a snack.
By now, the footsteps had reached outside the door.
The door was not bolted; a figure gently pushed the door open, walked in, and then gently pulled the door shut again.
The room was very dark, but if Yu Liancheng focused his Qi into his eyes, he might have been able to see the figure and appearance of this person clearly. But he did not, nor did he ask, as if he already knew who it was.
The footsteps were even lighter and slower, slowly walking to his bedside. Slowly, a hand reached out, gently touching Yu Liancheng's face, seemingly wanting to confirm if it was indeed Yu Liancheng on the bed.
Her hand was cold and soft, and still carried the fragrance of fresh flowers.
Immediately following, Yu Liancheng heard the sound of clothes falling to the floor. This sound was undoubtedly very pleasant; any man would feel pleased by it.
Perhaps he should have lit the lamp just now.
Because watching a woman take off her clothes is also a very pleasing sight.
Of course, it must be a beautiful woman.
Especially that kind of woman with great charm, whose every frown and movement seems to be teasing people.
A naked body had already slipped into Yu Liancheng's quilt.
Her body was cold and soft, but soon it became scorching hot, and it was trembling, just like a leaping flame.
Before Yu Liancheng could say anything, his mouth was already blocked.
The quilt suddenly began to move.
After a long time, Yu Liancheng sighed softly: "We have only known each other for a day, and you are still a little girl."
The woman did not answer.
Sometimes, not speaking is already the best answer.
"I am not a good man; you really shouldn't be in my bed."
Yu Liancheng said: "I also know this is wrong, but I am not the kind of person who can easily resist temptation."
The woman still did not speak, only wrapping her soft, delicate body around him like a vine.
Just at this moment, footsteps sounded outside the door again.
The footsteps were very light, as light as a cat.
Suddenly, the room door was pushed open again; this cat had more courage, actually bringing an oil lamp, and the dark room immediately lit up.
"Hee hee, my little man, I've come to see you... Ah! Ye Xue, why are you here!!" Holding the lamp, the sweet-smiling Ye Ling suddenly shrieked, her little face revealing surprise and anger.
Lying in Yu Liancheng's arms was none other than the beautiful and lithe Ye Xue, who was like a leopardess.
Ye Xue slightly parted her rosy lips, and the expression on her face was like a child who had been caught in the act of stealing candy.
Only, her snow-white cheeks were flushed, and it was unclear if it was from the lingering afterglow or the blush of being caught by her sister.
Yu Liancheng also seemed very surprised, his hand retracting as if struck by electricity: "Ye Xue, why is it you?"
Ye Xue bit her lip and glared at Yu Liancheng: "Why can't it be me? She can come, why can't I?"
She felt somewhat in the wrong facing Ye Ling'er, but she was very righteous toward Yu Liancheng, and even seemed a bit angry. What a girl cannot tolerate most is surely when a man is intimate with her but treats her as someone else.
Ye Ling was also very angry now, her willow eyebrows standing upright: "Because he is my man, you absolutely cannot touch my things."
There seemed to be tears in Ye Xue's beautiful eyes: "But he is also the Old Knife Handle, the new Old Knife Handle, and his martial arts are very high; I cannot watch the previous Old Knife Handle be killed by him."
It turned out that a very important reason why Ye Xue had come today was because she had already witnessed Yu Liancheng's peerless martial arts.
Mu Daoren was her godfather in name, and he had been very good to her.
In any case, she did not want Yu Liancheng to take Mu Daoren's life. And besides this graceful, delicate body, what else could make Yu Liancheng's heart move?
Of course, whether there were other reasons, it was unknown.
Ye Ling still stood there, glaring at Ye Xue, stamping her feet, her tone seemingly carrying a sob: "Since we were small, no matter what, you were better than me, and the Old Knife Handle also favored you. Now that I have finally obtained something you don't have, you still want to come and snatch it."
Ye Xue, who had been lowering her head, suddenly raised it, biting her lip: "But since we were small, no matter what happened, I have always let you have your way, and I have never treated you unfairly. Even if they all favored me, I have never wronged you once."
Ye Ling said sharply: "But this time you have wronged me."
Ye Xue's voice also seemed to become sharp: "He hasn't married you as his wife, so why have I wronged you? You can set your heart on him, why can't I?"
"You can't, I say you can't, so you can't." Ye Ling suddenly used her light-body technique, her pair of slender, jade-like hands slapping toward Ye Xue: "Since we were small, I have wanted to teach you a lesson, you self-righteous bitch."
"You... you actually think of me like this? Do you really think I'm afraid of you? No matter what, I was the one who got into bed with him before you." Ye Xue stretched out her snow-white arms and slapped back horizontally.
The two women began to fight right there in that cramped room.
One was quirky and clever, the other cold and beautiful.
One was wrapped in a green dress, her fine figure clearly revealed, while the other was completely naked, a patch of snowy white.
Yu Liancheng had no intention of stopping them at all, and even used the light brought by Ye Ling to enjoy the spectacle.
Watching two beautiful women fight was actually much more interesting, far better than watching two experts duel.
Ye Xue's martial arts were originally a notch above Ye Ling's, but after all, she was naked and found it quite inconvenient, so the two fought to a draw.
After a long while, the two women were drenched in fragrant sweat from the fight; Yu Liancheng gave his arm a shake, and the two women let out a cry of surprise in unison, both tumbling into his embrace.
"Perhaps you two could try a different way to compete."
Summer had already passed, yet the mosquitoes had not yet left.
"Slap!" A sound rang out, as if someone were swatting mosquitoes, yet the mosquitoes only grew more numerous.
