Jin Ling did not disappoint Ye Huan. Two days had passed, and aside from the occasional sighting of a lone Heavenly Dragon Gate Protector wandering around Yuxu Palace, there had been no large-scale attacks on the palace. This news brought some relief to Ye Huan, who pondered whether he should find a way to contact Jin Ling. After all, even if Yu Wuxia woke up, if he and Jin Ling could not meet to discuss the details of their transaction, then killing all the Heavenly Dragon Gate Protectors except for Jin Ling would merely be an empty promise with no possibility of implementation.
As Ye Huan sat in a guest room of Yuxu Palace deep in thought, Zhao Ziyu unexpectedly appeared by his side. Noticing Ye Huan's furrowed brow, she leaned in and softly asked, "Ye Huan, what are you thinking about?"
" Zhao Ziyu, do you remember the deal I made with Jin Ling? According to our previous agreement, she would delay the Heavenly Dragon Gate Protectors' attack until Yu Wuxia woke up. I planned to help her eliminate all the Heavenly Dragon Gate Protectors except for her. But now it's been two days, and the Heavenly Dragon Gate Protectors have become elusive, only occasionally showing themselves outside Yuxu Palace. Where do you think I should look for Jin Ling?"
Since they were family, Ye Huan felt no need to hide anything from Zhao Ziyu. He shared all his concerns with her, hoping she could come up with a good strategy.
"Ugh, that scheming woman! I knew you wouldn't give up on her. By the way, don't you have that thing called infrared something? Why not use it to search the area?"
Upon hearing Ye Huan's desire to find Jin Ling, Zhao Ziyu couldn't help but mock him a bit. It was clear she held no fondness for women with larger chests than her own. However, keeping Ye Huan's best interests in mind, she offered a suggestion and even mentioned "infrared," which immediately reminded Ye Huan of the Infrared Thermometer.
Cultivators are still human and have body heat. Since this Infrared Thermometer was effective against Japanese ninjas before, it should work against Cultivators as well. Of course, this was just Ye Huan's speculation; whether he could actually use the Infrared Thermometer to track down Jin Ling and others remained to be seen. Additionally, there was another issue that troubled Ye Huan greatly: even if he found Jin Ling, how would he communicate with her? Would he really discuss their transaction openly in front of other Heavenly Dragon Gate Protectors? If that happened, it was likely that before any deal could be made, both he and Jin Ling would be torn apart by the other Protectors.
Noticing that Ye Huan's frown had not eased at all, Zhao Ziyu grew curious and sat beside him, leaning her pretty face closer as she asked, "What’s wrong? Is there still something bothering you?"
"Yes, there is indeed a bit of trouble."
Ye Huan forced a smile; he hadn’t intended for Zhao Ziyu—whose cultivation level was quite low—to get involved. But considering that she had already provided him with a hint regarding finding Jin Ling, perhaps she could also help him think through his current predicament. With this in mind, Ye Huan hurriedly replied, "What should I do if I find Jin Ling? How can I discuss the details of our transaction in front of others?"
"Isn't that simple? Hey, Ye Huan, I'm not saying this to put you down; when you're smart, you're smarter than anyone else. So why are you being so foolish now? What about your headphones? Your Bluetooth headphones?"
Staring at Ye Huan in front of him, Zhao Ziyu couldn't help but wonder if Ye Huan had lost his mind. It was one thing to forget about the Infrared Thermometer, which he rarely used, but how could he forget about the Bluetooth headphones that he often bragged about?
Suddenly slapping his forehead, Zhao Ziyu realized that Ye Huan had indeed forgotten about the Bluetooth headphones until now. With Zhao Ziyu's reminder, Ye Huan finally remembered and hurriedly took out the Summoning Book. In front of Zhao Ziyu, he summoned an Infrared Thermometer and two pairs of Bluetooth headphones. After grabbing the summoned items, he quickly headed for the door.
"Wait, what are you planning to do?"
Noticing that Ye Huan intended to leave, Zhao Ziyu rushed to block his path. Given the items in Ye Huan's hands, she couldn't help but feel curious about his departure, suspecting that he was going to find Jin Ling, the woman with a chest much larger than hers.
As Zhao Ziyu expected, after she stopped him, Ye Huan didn't hide anything and directly stated that he was going to look for Jin Ling. After all, in Ye Huan's mind, if he couldn't deliver the Bluetooth headphones to Jin Ling before Yu Wuxia woke up, it would take him a lot of time to help Jin Ling eliminate other Heavenly Dragon Gate Protectors once Yu Wuxia regained consciousness. There was even a possibility that Gu Long, who was injured less severely than Yu Wuxia, would be drawn from the Heavenly Dragon Sect. By then, not only would it be impossible to kill any Heavenly Dragon Gate Protectors besides Jin Ling, but Jin Ling herself might also be in danger, making their transaction impossible.
"No way, absolutely not! I will not let you go find that woman!"
Zhao Ziyu spread her arms to block Ye Huan's way. Perhaps Ye Huan hadn't noticed certain details during his conversation with Jin Ling, but standing next to him, Zhao Ziyu had seen through Jin Ling's black bodysuit collar that she was wearing a red belly band underneath. Just imagine—a woman wearing nothing but a belly band beneath her outer clothing; if she wasn't a seductress trying to lure men, then what was she? The more she thought about it, the more worried she became that Ye Huan would be enchanted by Jin Ling and lose his mind. So Zhao Ziyu said firmly to Ye Huan, "Anyone can go find Jin Ling, but you absolutely cannot."
"Why not?"
Ye Huan couldn't understand why Zhao Ziyu was being so unreasonable. At this point, he still thought she was struggling over breast size issues and comforted her by saying, "To be honest, your chest isn't small either; at least I think it's quite nice. Why do you have to care so much?"
"Ye Huan!"
Instantly blushing bright red at his words, Zhao Ziyu stomped her foot in frustration and lowered her burning face, unable to look Ye Huan in the eye. Seizing this opportunity, Ye Huan didn't dare say anything more to Zhao Ziyu and quickly dashed out of the room. By the time Zhao Ziyu came back to her senses, there was no trace of Ye Huan left in the room.
On the other hand, after leaving the room, Ye Huan's first task was to find a quiet place to set down the Infrared Thermometer. Then he centered his search around Yuxu Peak within a three-thousand-meter radius. Soon enough on the display screen of the Infrared Thermometer, he found several small red dots clustered together.
"I wondered why there had been no activity these past few days; turns out they were hiding behind Yuxu Palace..."
Staring at the small red dot on the display screen, Ye Huan muttered to himself as he turned his gaze towards the west. The entrance of Yuxu Palace faced directly east, and given that Yuxu Palace was located on the West Coast, it was highly likely that Jin Ling and the others were near the coastline between the Eastern State and the Nine Provinces. No wonder, in the past two days, aside from the occasional harassment by two Heavenly Dragon Gate Protectors, they had not been seen at all.
Putting away the Infrared Thermometer, Ye Huan slowly took out a black Robe from his Spatial Ring for convenience. Tied around his waist with a rope, it looked quite similar to the black tight-fitting outfit worn by Song Zhong, one of the Heavenly Dragon Sect's Ten Protectors, except for being a bit loose. Coupled with Ye Huan's disheveled long hair, he exuded a unique aura.
After tucking his Bluetooth earpiece into his pocket, Ye Huan flew swiftly towards the location indicated by the Infrared Thermometer where the Heavenly Dragon Gate Protector was situated. Meanwhile, within the Heavenly Dragon Sect...
"Strange, two days have passed. By now, Song Zhong should have flattened Yuxu Palace; why haven't we heard anything? Could it be that they all perished?"
Muttering to himself as he gazed in the direction of Yuxu Palace, Gu Long was quite worried about the lack of communication from Song Zhong and the others for two whole days. To address this concern, Gu Long specifically summoned Ye Hua, who had thoroughly absorbed Beitang Mo's Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy. After pondering for a moment, Gu Long issued an order to Ye Hua: "Ye Hua, I believe you have absorbed enough of Beitang Mo's Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy by now. I command you to rush to Yuxu Palace immediately and investigate news regarding Song Zhong and the others. Report back to me without delay."
"Yes, Sect Leader."
A hoarse voice emerged from Ye Hua's throat. Over these past two days, he had paid a great price to absorb Beitang Mo's Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy. This was now a test of his strength; thus, without any hesitation, he responded to Bai Yulin and eagerly flew towards Yuxu Palace. This scene brought a satisfied nod from Gu Long...
