Chapter 223: Taking Advantage of Another’s Peril

Chapter 223: Chapter 223: Taking Advantage of Another’s Peril

At this thought, the Eighth King General felt completely numb! What the hell kind of advancement speed was this?!

"How... how is this possible?"

After a long silence, Shangguan Yulan finally spoke. However, the moment she opened her mouth, she drew the sidelong glances of all the Alliance Guard Army higher-ups present. Goodness. What did the Eighth King General mean by this? Even she couldn’t believe it?

Meanwhile, inside the villa.

Ye Yunyi, riding the Crimson Flame Tiger, swaggered in with a group of beauties from the Soro Clan. Ren Jingyi also came in. She turned to look at her Unicorn, which lowered its head submissively as it entered the villa.

Then, her Unicorn was immediately surrounded by a crowd of Exotic Beasts.

Little Heizi took the lead in boxing the Unicorn in, and after that, they just stared at it. The Three-tailed Snow Deer also glared at the Unicorn. All of them let out highly unfriendly sounds. The Unicorn looked at the Exotic Beasts and instantly went numb with fear. Any single one of these creatures was far stronger than it was. Now, they were all gathering around to box it in. Were they trying to bully it?

Ren Jingyi noticed the commotion. Looking at the Three-tailed Snow Deer, she immediately recognized it. Good heavens! A Late-Star Stage Exotic Beast! How could this be tamed?!

Ye Yunyi’s skill in Beast Taming was simply terrifying! She had previously heard her father mention that Ye Yunyi also knew Beast Taming, but she hadn’t paid it much mind. After all, she knew it too. As long as you beat an Exotic Beast into submission and made it obedient, you could naturally tame it. But looking at it now, it really wasn’t as simple as she had thought. Taming a Late-Star Stage Exotic Beast was something even her father would likely have a hard time pulling off.

Moreover, the more she looked at Ye Yunyi’s Exotic Beasts, the stranger they seemed! It wasn’t that she hadn’t seen these types of Exotic Beasts before—like the Black Wolf and that large bird. She had seen them, but they just felt different. Take the Three-tailed Snow Deer, for instance. The ones she had seen in the past definitely didn’t look like this! It was as if it had mutated! How bizarre!

Ye Yunyi let out a whistle, signaling to the crowd of Exotic Beasts. Little Heizi gave a few low growls, and the group dispersed, no longer surrounding the Unicorn.

Seeing the Exotic Beasts scatter, the Unicorn was just about to take a few steps forward when its legs gave out. With a soft neigh, it collapsed to the ground.

Ren Jingyi’s mouth twitched as she watched the scene, wondering if it could be a little less pathetic. Even as she mentally scolded the Unicorn, she realized her own condition wasn’t much better; she and the Unicorn were in the exact same boat right now. She had arrived brimming with confidence and high spirits. But now, after getting thoroughly beaten by Ye Yunyi, there wasn’t a shred of those high spirits left.

Ren Jingyi then turned her head and looked deeper into the villa. Quite a few girls were walking out of their rooms. Staring at the girls before her, her eyes widened. She simply couldn’t believe what she was seeing!

Holy crap! She had previously heard that Ye Yunyi was a wife-taking maniac and had even sired an Innate Golden-Level Mutant child! But upon actually arriving at the villa, she felt exactly like Granny Liu stepping into the Grand View Garden!

So many beauties?! They had every type imaginable! The domineering ones! The sweet ones! The pure ones! The queen-like ones! Of course, from the looks of it, there were even Western beauties! Beauties from the Northern region! Wow! Furthermore, many of these beauties were heavily pregnant! It went without saying what Ye Yunyi had done to them!

Ren Jingyi stared at the pregnant girls and was instantly stunned. Such surging Energy! The babies inside these girls’ bellies were actually absorbing the ambient Energy! How was this possible?! Extraordinary! These children were extraordinary! Immediately, she formulated a guess. Once born, these children would likely also be Innate Mutants!

Then, she looked at a few other girls nearby and instantly went numb with shock! What the hell! Every single one of them was like this?! Just how monstrous were Ye Yunyi’s genes?!

While she was lost in shock, Ye Yunyi had already dismounted. He then helped the young women from the Soro Clan down. By this time, Ren Jingyi had recovered a bit and managed to dismount on her own.

"Come on, let’s find you a place to rest and properly recover," Ye Yunyi said.

Beside him, Dongfang Ruoyu came over and looked at Ren Jingyi. "Husband, is this sister going to marry you today?"

That single sentence made Ren Jingyi’s face flush bright red. Marry?! Tonight?! What were they planning to do to her? She immediately crossed her arms over her chest in a defensive posture.

"No, no, this is the daughter of the Fifth King General, Ren Jingyi. She just got injured, so find her a room and let her rest for a bit," Ye Yunyi instructed.

Dongfang Ruoyu stuck her tongue out playfully and then led Ren Jingyi toward another room. Upon entering, Ren Jingyi took in her surroundings before her gaze fell on Dongfang Ruoyu’s belly. Good heavens. The child inside this one’s belly was also incredibly terrifying.

"Good sister, you rest in this room for now," Dongfang Ruoyu said, getting her settled before walking out.

Ren Jingyi finally lay down to rest. After all, her entire body felt as if it were falling apart from the pain earlier. After resting for a while, a knock sounded at the door.

"Please come in."

Subsequently, Ye Yunyi pushed the door open and walked in. "How is it? Are you feeling alright?" He had a smile on his face and held a piece of paper in his hand. Glancing around the room first, he continued, "The environment in my villa should be decent enough. Since we just fought, I have a feeling you won’t fully recover anytime soon. How about this: you stay here with me for a few days."

"It’s fine."

"Also, take a look at this. Could you sign it? I’ll send it over to your dad."

Ren Jingyi had initially been quite moved, but soon after, a look of exasperation crossed her face. She walked over and looked at the contents of the paper. Good lord. It was the wager between her and Ye Yunyi! Furthermore, quite a few things had been added to it!

"Wait! When we made the bet earlier, we never agreed to any of this. Why did you add these things on your own?" Ren Jingyi immediately questioned.

At those words, Ye Yunyi’s face turned cold. "Your accommodation fees here, meals, clothing, shelter, and transportation—don’t all of those cost money?"

Ren Jingyi was left speechless. What the hell! How much food could she possibly eat?! Wasn’t he just taking advantage of her misfortune?!

"You’re so greedy!"

"What did you say?" Hearing this, Ye Yunyi smiled and leaned in toward Ren Jingyi. He slowly clenched his fists. CRACK! CRACK! The sound of his popping knuckles echoed loudly throughout the room.

This sound, paired with Ye Yunyi’s demon-like smile, made Ren Jingyi recall the terrifying scene of her battle with him just earlier. Immediately, her body violently shuddered!

"Don’t come any closer! Don’t come any closer! I’ll sign it! I’ll sign it, okay?!" Ren Jingyi promptly picked up a pen and began signing the document.

"That’s more like it," Ye Yunyi snorted coldly. A wise person submits to circumstances, after all!
