"I know you! Xue Ziping, the son of the Sect Master of Heavenly Dao Sect! You already have eighteen concubines, and still, you want to make improper advances towards my Heavenly Senior Sister?" Yan Rui angrily retorted with hands on her hips at the young man.
The young man’s face showed an awkward expression, and he waved his hand: "That was all foolishness from my past, now that I’ve met this young lady, I just want her alone for this lifetime—it would be enough."
"Heh, you’re really dreaming big, aren’t you? Not a chance!" Yan Rui said angrily, "I am Yan Rui from Chengtian Sect. If you dare to mess around, I’ll send out a signal and summon my father to come and beat you up."
Yan Rui? Xue Ziping looked at her clothes, then at her bun hairstyle, confirming her identity. This truly was that little demon Yan Rui from Chengtian Sect!
However, the heavenly immortal-like young lady beside her clearly wasn’t from Chengtian Sect. Since she wasn’t from Chengtian Sect, things would be much simpler.
"What do children know? This young lady hasn’t even spoken, why are you rushing to speak?" Although Xue Ziping was aware of Yan Rui’s reputation as a little devil king, it didn’t mean he feared her. After all, in the cultivation world, young rascals feared nothing!
"Young lady, your surname is Tian, right? Miss Tian, I am Xue Ziping, with considerable insight into the Alchemy Dao. If Miss Tian has any questions, feel free to ask me. I will answer every question you have, thoroughly." Xue Ziping said to Tianmiao, cupping his hands, "Earlier, what I said was not a joke. If you are willing to be with me, I will host a grand ceremony, wholeheartedly devoted to you."
"Sorry, not interested." Tianmiao smiled slightly.
The smile almost made Xue Ziping’s soul fly away.
Yan Rui made a face at Xue Ziping, pulling Tianmiao towards the herbal store.
Xue Ziping once again blocked their way: "Wait, Miss Tian, I feel that there really is no man in this world who has better conditions than me, you..."
Before he could finish, Yan Rui screamed loudly, Tianmiao covered her eyes, and turned around as well.
"What? I’m so handsome..." Xue Ziping was about to say something after seeing their reaction, but the disciples behind him also let out low exclamations.
"What’s up with you guys? No manners, don’t you see I’m talking to this beautiful lady?" Xue Ziping frowned impatiently and scolded, only to see Luo Yunfei and Luo Yunyi looking oddly at him.
Luo Yunyi quickly regained composure and said calmly: "With your figure, you’re like a plucked chicken, where do you get the face to call yourself handsome?"
"What?" Xue Ziping was startled, suddenly feeling something was amiss, why did he feel a chill all over?
"Young master, quick, put on some clothes." The disciples behind Xue Ziping scrambled to grab clothes and cloaks, hurriedly covering him.
Xue Ziping looked down and almost fainted.
His clothes had somehow been burnt to ashes, leaving only a pile of ash at his feet. He was standing completely naked in front of the lady he admired!
Xue Ziping frantically wrapped a cloak around himself, glancing around, and shouted sternly: "Who did this! If you’re brave enough, step forward!"
But no one responded, only passersby chuckled and pointed at him.
Unable to stay any longer, Xue Ziping turned and fled. The disciples behind him quickly chased after.
"Hahaha, serves him right! But who exactly did it?" Yan Rui heard the footsteps, pulled away Tianmiao’s hand, turned to look at Xue Ziping’s fleeing figure, and laughed heartily.
