Heart Protection

On the way there, Tian Yao had already gotten into the habit of walking behind Yan Hui. This way, it prevented her from seeing him and spouting off some hoodlum words taht he was no match for.

Looking at Yan Hui"s back, it was as straight as ever. Every step had a swagger that ordinary girls wouldn"t have. It was like last night"s words didn"t strike her heart, didn"t hurt her at all.

Even though it is Yan Hui, it appeared like she was good at covering up in some situations.

When Xian Ge opened the door for Yan Hui, Feng Qian Shuo also happened to be inside. He was sitting in one of the chairs, waving his fan. He beamed at Yan Hui: "Coming to look for Xian Ge so early in the morning. Miss Yan Hui, do have a fancy for my Xian Ge?"

"That"s right." Yan Hui answered naturally. "Clan Master Feng, are you willing to step aside?"

Feng Qian Shuo folded his fan with a snap: "That"s out of the question."

Yan Hui pursed her lips: "In any case, you already have one hundred concubines. You won"t miss a thing if you give Xian Ge to me." Yan Hui grinned at Xian Ge. "Isn"t that right, Xian Ge? Are you willing to come with me?"

Xian Ge reached out and poked Yan Hui"s forehead. She was just about to chide Yan Hui when Feng Qian Shuo spoke: "I won"t miss a thing, but my heart and soul have already been taken by her." Feng Qian Shuo beckoned toward Xian Ge. She was stunned and obediently walked over. He wrapped her in his arms like a treasure: "Even if you are a girl, Yan Hui, you can"t steal from me."

Yan Hui looked at Xian Ge"s slightly red face. She sighed internally. Xian Ge, oh Xian Ge. You"re so smart. How do you not know he"s just putting on a show for you to see, yet you actually are.......

 A glutton for punishment.

Yan Hui turned her gaze. Tian Yao, who was by her side, stepped forward. He sat on the other side of the table. He wasn"t interested in what the other people were talking about but got straight to the point: "Heavenly Fragrance needs a treasure in order to make the l.u.s.t fragrance. I want to take the treasure. Clan Master Feng, are you willing to help?"

Once Tian Yao spoke, the mood immediately became more grave.

It was then that Feng Qian Shuo looked at Tian Yao: "I forgot to ask yesterday. You are?"

Tian Yao didn"t speak. He turned to look at Yan Hui, expectantly waiting for her to introduce him.

Really......he didn"t want to expend effort to trick people, so he wanted her to......

Yan Hui unhappily said: "He"s Tian Yao, a young man from a dirt-poor, minor mountain village. He brings a lot of troubles. But for now, he"s a good person."

Feng Qian Shuo glanced at Xian Ge. But he only spoke when he saw Xian Ge lightly dip her head: "Since Miss Yan says he"s a good person, then I will believe her. Sir Tian Yao, you say you want my help, but do you know what you want my help with?" Feng Qian Shuo played with Xian Ge"s hair. It seemed like he unintentionally joked around.

"Most everyone in the jianhu knows my current circ.u.mstance. Yesterday, Feng Ming was just selling a show to give me and the elders some face. That"s why he gave the fox demons to me. After all, it didn"t hurt him a bit. But if it"s like what Sir Tian Yao says........taking the treasure essential to making the l.u.s.t fragrance, then I"m afraid I can"t help in this situation."

Tian Yao calmly said: "I don"t want to trouble Clan Master Feng into asking Feng Ming to hand the treasure over. Clan Master need only to pick a time and a.s.sume a name to lure Feng Ming out of Heavenly Fragrance. I will use my own method to get the treasure."

Feng Qian Shuo considered it for a moment: "What you say isn"t hard. However, if I lure Feng Ming out and he returns to see the treasure gone, won"t he place the blame on me? Sir Tian Yao, your request makes things difficult for me."

Tian Yao"s index finger lightly tapped on the table twice. The light yet slow taps revealed his contemplation. However when he tapped a third time, Tian Yao lifted his eyes and looked directly at Feng Qian Shuo. His voice was deep and steady: "Clan Master Feng only need to lure away and hold up Feng Ming for a short while. That will be enough. When we get the treasure, even if Feng Ming returns and discovers us, it doesn"t matter. I will have way to ensure Feng Ming will be unable to cause any trouble toward you."

Feng Qian Shuo"s eyebrow slightly twitched: "Sir Tian Yao, your words claim much."

Yeah, they claim much!

Yan Hui was shocked when she heard those words. If they wanted to make Feng Ming unable to cause trouble toward Feng Qian Shuo, then either they strip all his power away or either they........

Kill him!

"As far as I considered, it"s not hard."

My a.s.s it"s not hard!

Yan Hui stared wide-eyed at Tian Yao. He only found his dragon bones. With his broken body, he most likely didn"t recover any magic. Although it seemed like he understood many spell arrays and could borrow the strength of spell arrays, since when did he actually cast an array toward Feng Ming? People aren"t stupid!

Yan Hui and Feng Ming had interacted. She knew how formidable he was. If Tian Yao and Feng Ming were to fight, then Tian Yao would quickly be blasted to smithereens!

"When my uncle was young, he was sent to a xian sect to learn cultivation for a time. It won"t be easy to go against him." Feng Qian Shuo had the same apprehensions as Yan Hui.

"I dare say those words and take risks to enter Heavenly Fragrance. But does Clan Master Feng not dare to trust me?"

Mm, reverse psychology.

Yan Hui shot Tian Yao a look.

Feng Qian Shuo laughed in amus.e.m.e.nt: "If I don"t promise you, then it makes me seem like a timid leader." He was silent for a moment. "You and Miss Yan should return first and rest. I will consider it."

Tian Yao didn"t pursue the issue. He calmly stood up: "I take my leave."

Ah, leaving just like that? Yan Hui was a bit stunned. She seemed like......she played no role in the discussion. And that was because it seemed like Tian Yao already had his own plans.

Yan Hui waited until they left Xian Ge"s wing before her curiosity got the best of her. She asked Tian Yao: "Can you face Feng Ming? Then last time at Heavenly Fragrance, why didn"t I see you so relaxed and calm?"

"I can"t." Tian Yao lightly said. "The dragon horns aren"t a part of my body, so I can"t absorb any spirituality to use. My body has no inner breath."

Yan Hui was stunned: "But back there you spoke with such confidence......"

Tian Yao"s footsteps paused. He turned to look at Yan Hui: "Yan Hui."

He called Yan Hui"s name with a serious tone. Yan Hui"s heart thumped at his melodious voice. She also stared back at Tian Yao. Then under his silent gaze, she turned red. Yan Hui lightly coughed and turned her eyes away: "Just say it."

"I can"t go against Feng Ming, but you can."

Yan Hui had no reaction for awhile. Then, suddenly she reacted.

Oh! After all that, Tian Yao said fighting Feng Ming wasn"t hard not because he was strong but because he never planned on doing it! He wanted her to do it! Wanted her to fight Feng Ming!

To him, facing Feng Ming wasn"t hard! Because he didn"t even need to lift a finger!

She is the one with the hard time! Her!

For a split second, Yan Hui thought the l.u.s.t fragrance had lost its effect because she had the urge to choke that dragon demon.......

Yan Hui fiercely gritted her teeth and resisted that hateful urge. Then she put in all her effort into a gentle smile, intending to patiently chat with Tian Yao: "How do you know I"m willing to fight against Feng Ming?"

"You will be willing."

"I!" Yan Hui originally thought to refute, but thinking for some moment.......

f.u.c.k, she actually was willing!

Thus Yan Hui silently looked at Tian Yao.......

If thinking of another way was too troublesome, then you might as well be more direct and meet force with force. Simple and crude, direct and efficient. That was Yan Hui"s style.

Yan Hui sullenly muttered a little. Then after thinking, she frowned: "If I use my entire strength, I might not lose against Feng Ming." She continued, "But, I use Chen Xing Mountain"s heart techniques. Once I make a move, it"ll immediately be obvious......" She paused. "Forget Xian Ge and Feng Qian Shuo. Whatever information they desire, they will get. But for now, I still don"t want others to know I"m from Chen Xing Mountain."

Pitting herself against Feng Ming, freeing the fox demons, stealing the hidden treasure, and using Chen Xing Mountain"s heart technique. If someone with slight knowledge of Chen Xing Mountain"s internal affairs found out, they would know. It had to be the one who was expelled, Yan Hui.

Eventually, Zi Yue will find out. Ling Fei would find out. Ling Xiao.......will also find out.

Yan Hui didn"t want Ling Xiao to find out at all. That after leaving Chen Xing Mountain, she really was with a demon and helping demons.

Even though.......this didn"t seem important to Ling Xiao at all.

Tian Yao was slightly grave. He actually hadn"t thought of the matter of Chen Xing Mountain, but Yan Hui"s ident.i.ty indeed couldn"t be revealed at this point. Not mentioning other things, if Su Ying found out the person who stole the dragon horns was Yan Hui......just that thought alone was bad enough.

So they couldn"t allow anyone to find out Yan Hui"s real ident.i.ty.

"If I don"t use Chen Xing Mountain"s heart techniques, then I have no chance of winning against Feng Ming." Yan Hui looked at Tian Yao, "You best go back to Feng Qian Shuo and take back your boasts."

Tian Yao remained silent for a moment, but he didn"t follow Yan Hui"s words. He only said: "You told me before that you learn fast, right?"

Yan Hui blinked twice: "Ya."

"Then don"t use Chen Xing Mountain"s heart techniques. I"ll teach you. You"ll learn new heart techniques now."

"Now?" Yan Hui was stunned. "Sure......but......learn what? Learn your dragon demon techniques using the heart protection scale?"

"No." Tian Yao"s eyes slightly narrowed into a shrewd and calculating look. "You"ll pretend to be from Qing Qiu. I"ll teach you the nine-tailed fox demon"s technique."

For a brief moment, Yan Hui thought she heard incorrectly: "What did you say you were going to teach me?"

"The nine-tailed fox demon clan"s heart technique."
