On top of the mountain peak, a painting was suspended in midair.
The woman in the painting had a delicate face that could cause the downfall of a city.
Even though it was only a painting, it was a true reflection of Yan Xin Yan. It was as if she was standing before Ling Xian.
"No wonder the Immortal of Arrays can't forget her. She really is a beauty." Ling Xian silently complimented, "No wonder she is a rare woman. I wonder if I can keep this painting?"
"Keep it?"
Yan Ning Zhi was getting more and more confused. However, she really couldn't say no to Ling Xian, who she liked. She nodded, "Okay, if you want it, then take it."
"Thank you."
Ling Xian grinned. He flapped around his sleeve and put the painting inside the Painting of the Nine Immortals.
"Please come in and talk. You treated me with the Tea of Enlightenment. Now, let me treat you with a unique tea from the Yan Clan." Yan Ning Zhi smiled brightly and extended her arm, gesturing for Ling Xian to enter.
"I …" Ling Xian frowned and declined, "No, I have other things to do. I won't be going in."
"Alright."
Yan Ning Zhi's eyes darkened. After some thought, she mustered up her courage and said, "Master Ling, that jade, you have to keep it safe."
"About that …" Ling Xian bitterly smiled. He wanted to tell her the truth, but he was afraid of exposing the Painting of the Nine Immortals. He could only say, "Don't worry, I will keep it safe."
Hearing this, Yan Ning Zhi revealed a bright smile and blushed, "Master, do you want to hear the story about the jade?"
"About that … I have other things to do. Maybe another day." Ling Xian's head hurt. He didn't even need to think to know that Yan Ning Zhi wanted to tell him the deeper meaning behind the jade.
Therefore, he had to decline. Or else after the story is told, it would be hard to play dumb again.
"Aye, oh well, never mind then." Yan Ning Zhi softly sighed and silently cursed at Ling Xian for being insensitive.
How could she know that Ling Xian already knew the meaning behind the jade? It was because he knew that he couldn't listen to her. If he did, there would be no way out.
"I have other things to do. I will leave now." Ling Xian faintly smiled and prepared to leave.
However, at this moment, a furious voice suddenly rang out.
"Stop right there!"
In the next second, a young man dressed in black descended from the sky. His face was dark as he stared at Ling Xian with eyes that were about to spit fire.
"Hmm?"
Ling Xian frowned and looked at the person in confusion, "Who are you?"
"Young man, you are Ling Xian, right?" The young man stared at Ling Xian and snickered, "Listen up. My name is Chen Yao Wei."
"You sure live up to your name. You sure are arrogant." Ling Xian's eyes turned cold. This person called himself Lao Zi, of course he was angry.
"I, your father, am going to flaunt my strength. Let me give you a piece of advice. Stay away from Ning Zhi. Or else, I will bring people to destroy you!" Chen Yao Wei spoke arrogantly, giving off a feeling of arrogance.
He was a direct descendant of the Chen Clan. After hearing that Yan Ning Zhi had come to the House of Zi Yang, he followed his third uncle here to pursue the goddess of his heart.
However, before Chen Yao Wei had the chance to see Yan Ning Zhi, he heard a piece of news that almost made him puke blood.
The goddess of his heart had waited for 10 days to see a man!
To know that Chen Yao Wei had pursued Yan Ning Zhi for three years. No matter how hard he tried, Yan Ning Zhi never responded to him. She was as cold as an ice mountain.
Yet now, she was asking to see a man and was willing to wait for 10 days. How could he accept this?
"So it's because of this."
Ling Xian frowned and shifted his gaze to Yan Ning Zhi, "Miss Yan, this started because of you. Why don't you take care of it."
"Do not worry, leave it to me."
Yan Ning Zhi's face was frosty. She stared at the arrogant man coldly, "Chen Yao Wei, I have told you more than a thousand times. Stop bothering me. Who I am with has nothing to do with you. Get out of my sight."
As a proud daughter of heaven and a peerless beauty, she naturally had countless suitors. There were many suitors who annoyed her, but the one who annoyed her the most was this arrogant young man.
Therefore, she never treated Chen Yao Wei nicely. Now that this man dared to threaten Ling Xian, she was infuriated and wanted to slap this man to death.
"Ning Zhi, I finally get to see you."
Staring at the beauty before him, Chen Yao Wei's eyes were heated and full of lust.
"Shut up!"
Yan Ning Zhi raised an eyebrow and said in disgust, "How many times have I told you not to call me Ning Zhi? You have no right!"
"Hmmph, I don't have the right, but he does?" Chen Yao Wei hissed, coldness swirled in his eyes.
Yan Ning Zhi raised an eyebrow. She hated this man to the extreme. She said coldly, "That's right. In this world, only he has the right. You better give up."
Then, she hugged Ling Xian's arm and rested her head on his shoulder.
This scene shocked Chen Yao Wei and caught Ling Xian off guard.
"Dammit!"
Chen Yao Wei shouted angrily. He was a possessive person and could not tolerate someone else touching the woman he likes. Therefore, when Yan Ning Zhi hugged Ling Xian, he was naturally enraged.
"Good, good, good."
Chen Yao Wei said "good" three times in a row. The way he looked at Ling Xian was full of killer's intent, "Didn't you like this pretty boy? Then I will kill him today. "
"Don't you dare!"
Yan Ning Zhi's eyes turned cold and she let go of Ling Xian's arm. She said in a low voice, "Chen Yao Wei, if you dare to touch a hair on his head, I will make sure you die a horrible death."
"Hehe, Yan Ning Zhi, it seems like you really do like this pretty boy." Chen Yao Wei snickered and his face turned even more ferocious, "You are threatening me because of him? Don't forget, I am the son of the Chen Clan Leader. Even if you kill me, you will pay with your life."
"Hmmph, if you dare to touch Master Ling, even if I have to pay with my life, I will kill you." Yan Ning Zhi's face was frigid. She would not allow anyone to touch a hair on Ling Xian's head.
She would rather pay with her life than let this man touch her?
Ling Xian sighed, feeling warm inside. He patted Yan Ning Zhi's shoulder and smiled warmly, "You can step down now. I am a man, I can't hide behind a woman."
Yan Ning Zhi was a little startled. Remembering Ling Xian's capabilities, she calmed down and reminded, "Okay, this man is the son of the Chen Clan Leader. He has a powerful background. If you don't have to kill him, try not to."
"I know what I am doing." Ling Xian smiled warmly and stepped forward.
Seeing that Ling Xian had stepped forward, Chen Yao Wei snickered, "Hehe, you piece of trash, you are finally willing to step out?"
"What an arrogant person." Ling Xian shook his head and retracted his smile. He then made a statement that was calm yet arrogant.
"Tell me, how do you want to die?"
Ling Xian's white robe fluttered in the wind.
