Chapter 1377: Chapter 1376: Hong Ye’s Thoughts

Moreover, on the other hand, she’s also very curious about Ling Chen.

This guy is preparing to set foot on the Yingzhou Continent, and by then, he will undoubtedly stir up a huge storm across the entire Yingzhou. She wants to see how big of a commotion Ling Chen can create.

Ling Chen himself is a legend, and by following a legend, she can also get closer to being legendary and learn a lot of things.

That is her purpose.

"That’s right, I’m willing."

Hong Ye nodded, "I, Hong Ye, am naturally drawn to powerful men, so even if it means being his servant, as long as I can stay by his side, that’s enough."

"What did you say?"

Liusheng Bushou’s face showed a look of disbelief. This woman, refusing to be a noble lady, actually wants to become someone else’s maid.

"Truly a despicable woman!"

He coldly whispered and, after a flicker in his eyes, he waved his hand at the Ghost Warriors behind him, "Let’s go!"

As soon as he said this, the Ghost Warriors helped Liusheng Bushou up and hurried back to the Flying Puppet.

Once they got Liusheng Bushou onto the Flying Puppet, the group left Fish-dragon Island in a dejected manner.

Watching Liusheng Bushou and his people leave, the members of the Fish Dragon Sect were also greatly relieved, letting out a breath. This menacing disaster-star finally left.

However, they also knew that it was thanks to Ling Chen that they could drive away Liusheng Bushou. Without Ling Chen, the entire Fish Dragon Sect, or even the whole Fish-dragon Island, would not have escaped a massacre.

After Liusheng Bushou left, Hong Ye couldn’t help but look somewhat surprised at Ling Chen next to her, "Why were you so sure I would choose to stay? If I chose to leave with Liusheng Bushou, wouldn’t you be miscalculating?"

"If you had really intended to leave with Liusheng Bushou from the start, you probably wouldn’t have listened to me obediently when I called you over just now."

Ling Chen’s lips curved into a smile, speaking indifferently.

"It’s all your fault. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have ended up in such a situation where I can’t go home."

Hong Ye looked at Ling Chen with a bit of blame, and in her words, there was a hint of coyness, the kind that might make most men feel sympathetic and protective.

Seeing Ling Chen not speaking, Hong Ye also involuntarily leaned closer, trying to take the opportunity to lean on Ling Chen.

However, just as she was about to lean on Ling Chen, he suddenly stepped to the side and walked straight forward, perfectly dodging her attempt, almost making her make a fool of herself by falling.

"Damn it."

Hong Ye’s face reddened. She had originally planned to use her charms to confuse Ling Chen, trap him in her beauty, and then extract more from him. However, surprisingly, her charms had no effect, not even causing Ling Chen to lose focus for a moment.

Could it be that this guy is really not a man, just as she previously thought?

This thought in her heart grew stronger. Otherwise, how could it be explained why Ling Chen had no reaction to such a stunning beauty like her?

Any normal person wouldn’t be so indifferent to having a stunning beauty by their side.

She didn’t believe that Ling Chen took her as his maid without any impure thoughts. After all, taking a stunning beauty as a maid would be a wild fantasy for anyone, with the desire for beauty being an inevitable factor.

Yet Hong Ye never imagined that things could be this pure, and Ling Chen indeed had no such thoughts toward her.

"Keep up the act if you like."

Hong Ye laughed coldly in her heart. To her, Ling Chen’s calmness was mostly feigned, and she believed that he had already been moved by her. She wanted to see how long Ling Chen could keep up the act.

Now, her status is Ling Chen’s servant, which gives her plenty of opportunities in the future. She simply couldn’t believe that with her charm, she couldn’t make Ling Chen fall under her spell, succumbing to her control.

Once she had Ling Chen under her control, making him her pawn, she would not only have a powerful ally, but when she returned to the Liu Sheng Family, she would no longer be a disgrace to the family but rather its shining jewel and great contributor.

As for all these thoughts in Hong Ye’s mind, Ling Chen was naturally unaware. He went directly to the Longyuan True Immortal, casting his gaze upon him and softly said, "Are you okay?"

Longyuan True Immortal had almost been killed by a slash from Liusheng Bushou before and was now still pale, with severe injuries.

Having consumed so many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, Ling Chen had finally recovered most of his strength, so asking about his well-being was only natural.

"I’m fine, surviving is good enough."

A smile appeared on Longyuan True Immortal’s face. After all, it was Liusheng Bushou, someone whose presence often left places rivers of blood and heaps of corpses. Surviving was indeed a blessing in misfortune; what more could he ask for?

"But although Liusheng Bushou was thwarted this time, it doesn’t guarantee that the Liu Sheng Family won’t come back. You should make preparations early."

Ling Chen said with a slightly serious expression.

If the Liu Sheng Family is determined to possess this sea area, then this setback might not be enough to make them stop. After all, just Ling Chen alone is not enough to make such a colossal entity like the Liu Sheng Family back down.

"I understand."

Longyuan True Immortal nodded. He had already planned to relocate the Fish Dragon Sect away from Fish-dragon Island and find another island in a different sea to settle in, to avoid the Liu Sheng Family’s forces.

After all, in this world, strength is the ultimate truth. In the face of powerful entities like the Liu Sheng Family, the Fish Dragon Sect is no match; the choices are either to submit or to relocate. There are only these two options.

Since the Liu Sheng Family pays so much attention to him, they certainly won’t easily let the Fish Dragon Sect off. Staying on Fish-dragon Island will only invite disaster sooner or later.

Regarding this, Ling Chen naturally would not interfere. The affairs of the Fish Dragon Sect had nothing to do with him. He might protect the Fish Dragon Sect once, but he couldn’t protect them a second time. Relocating from Fish-dragon Island was the best choice.

"What about you two?"

Ling Chen turned his head to look at Uncle Fang and Little Butterfly. Since the Fish Dragon Sect was moving away from Fish-dragon Island, they certainly couldn’t stay either.

Little Butterfly looked at Ling Chen with some hope. She wanted to follow him, but Ling Chen shook his head and then said, "I’m heading to Yingzhou this time, which will be extremely dangerous. Even for me, self-preservation might be difficult. If I bring others along, protecting them will be even harder. You should go with Longyuan True Immortal and move away from Fish-dragon Island together. You can look after each other."

He wasn’t going to Yingzhou for leisure; he had many important matters to attend to. Moreover, he had already planned that on this trip to Yingzhou, he would challenge the major Swordsmanship Schools, of which the Liu Sheng Family was just one. If he truly did this, he’d inevitably make more and more enemies, bringing Little Butterfly and Uncle Fang along would only harm them.
