Chapter 792 - 444: Want to try running?_3

Chen Xuan chuckled lightly, looking at her gritting teeth, truly finding it amusing.

Even in such a situation, she dared to threaten him; it seems she never faced the harsh reality.

But thinking about it, made sense.

With such talent, and the National Preceptor as her backing, who wouldn’t treat her with utmost respect?

But now... she became Chen Xuan’s prisoner.

"You better not anger me, even if you have the National Preceptor behind you. I can guarantee that if I kill you, he won’t be able to find me."

"With my talent, as long as I have enough time, even the National Preceptor can’t do anything to me."

"If you don’t believe it, try it and see if I’m afraid to kill you!"

Every word from Chen Xuan struck her heart.

Yao’Er glared at him, but this time she wised up and kept her mouth shut.

The feeling... was worse than death.

"That’s right, as long as you behave, hasn’t the prince treated you well? You have food and clothes, isn’t that enough?"

After saying this, Chen Xuan slowly stood up.

The warning was complete. In his eyes, Yao’Er was no different from those pampered young ladies, only stronger.

But her temperament was too poor.

"By the way, your stay in the Prince’s Mansion also costs money. Tomorrow, I’ll send someone over, and you can teach him spiritual cultivation, consider it your meal fee."

After speaking, he left the room without waiting for her response.

"Hmph!"

Only after he left did Yao’Er let out a cold snort.

But this sound, in Chen Xuan’s ears, only represented powerless rage, making him even more at ease.

He arrived at the long-missed study.

Chen Xuan set up an array and then began comprehending the space seed.

Only until it got dark did he leave quietly.

In the room, Yao’Er sat there still, and the whole day passed just like that.

Not until the Rat King personally brought in food did she regain her senses.

However, there wasn’t any exchange between the two. Yao’Er just gave him a cold glance, while the Rat King placed the food down and left the room.

Looking at the food on the table, although it was quite good, she had no appetite.

Closing her eyes, a wisp of spiritual power spread out, and instantly, the entire Prince Xuan’s Mansion appeared in her sea of consciousness.

"The array has been set up."

Yao’Er looked at the study’s location, and although the array seemed as fragile as paper in her eyes, she didn’t dare to forcibly investigate it.

"Sigh!"

She sighed, then withdrew her spiritual power.

...

In the Ten Thousand People Mountain Range.

"You’re finding a mentor for Xiaoqi?"

Ning Xin asked.

"Yes!"

Chen Xuan nodded.

"Is it that woman?"

Ning Xin instantly guessed.

"Smart!"

Chen Xuan smiled, "She’s not simple, a five-tier spirit cultivator of the Dao stage and a disciple of the National Preceptor. There’s no one better suited to teach Xiaoqi."

Naturally, he planned to keep a close eye on her.

Even though he warned Yao’Er before, it was best to remain cautious.

"A disciple of the National Preceptor... Dao stage five-tier... it’s her!"

Gu Pengyou suddenly spoke, appearing extremely shocked.

"You know her?"

Chen Xuan was somewhat surprised, not expecting her to know Yao’Er.

But Gu Pengyou shook her head, "I heard about such a person, but didn’t know her name. I heard my second uncle once mention it, saying she’s a genius among geniuses."

"So the Shadow Guard that came to Moran City is her!"

"Yes! It’s her!"

Chen Xuan nodded, "I almost fell for her tricks, that woman is quite formidable."

"You didn’t do anything to her, did you?"

Suddenly recalling, she had encouraged Chen Xuan to directly overpower her some time ago.

"Guess?"

"Phew—"

Upon hearing that, Gu Pengyou let out a long sigh of relief, knowing he hadn’t after seeing his expression.

She then spoke, "Husband, you must not act recklessly. My second uncle mentioned her identity is not ordinary and has deep ties with the National Preceptor."

"Relax! I know what I’m doing."

"That’s good!"

Gu Pengyou nodded. It was for the best.

The National Preceptor was right beneath the top person in Great Yu, offending him... one could imagine the consequences.

"It’s just that I planted a soul seed in her!"

Silence!

The entire hall fell silent.

Gu Pengyou was stunned on the spot, looking at Chen Xuan in disbelief, swallowing hard, "You... planted a soul seed in her!?"

"Alright, it’s not a big deal. With me here, don’t worry."

Chen Xuan patted her head, comforting her.

But... Gu Pengyou gave a bitter smile, "Oh my husband, you sure are bold."

To plant a soul seed in her, if the National Preceptor learned of this, the heavens would be torn apart.

And now, he also let her teach Xiaoqi cultivation.

This... she didn’t know what was in Chen Xuan’s mind.

"I’ll accompany Xiaoqi at the Prince’s Mansion during this time. If you all want to go too, feel free to join."

Chen Xuan understood her concern and thus spoke his thoughts.

"Then let’s all go. While this place is nice, it’s a bit too quiet. Going to Moran City allows us to occasionally stroll about for some excitement."

Ning Xin pondered for a moment and then said.

Chen Xuan looked at the other women, and seeing their lack of objection, he decided, "Then let’s all go. I’ll accompany you and shop properly then."

"Yay, finally we can go out and play."

Luan Ying excitedly raised her hands in cheer.

She had been thinking about this for a while.

This place was picturesque, but over time, it got tedious.

But she knew Chen Xuan placed them here for their safety, so she dared not mention it.

Now, they could finally return.

"So happy? Is this place not good?"

Chen Xuan gave her a look.

"Good, very good... but over time... Moran City is better, we can go out and play."

She said, sticking out her tongue playfully.

"Don’t scold her; you know her temperament. Staying this long is already commendable."

Ning Xin lovingly gazed at Luan Ying.

As for her, she didn’t mind, having been accustomed to island life before.
