It was midnight, and the moon enshrouded the night.
Ye Mo directly headed towards Li Mengli’s room and knocked, only to realise that the door was not locked.
“Ye Xiao, come in!” Li Mengli’s voice could be heard from inside.
Ye Mo walked into the room. The moment he entered the room, he was shocked by what he saw before his eyes. Li Mengli had evidently made an effort to doll herself up. Wearing a long white dress, she showed off her slim waist and snow-like skin. With eyebrows resembling a crescent moon and a petite, upright nose, a golden glow flashed across her eyes, giving off a restorative feeling.
Looking at Ye Mo’s stunned expression, she smiled proudly and said, “What? You don’t dare to come in? Are you scared that I’ll eat you?”
Coming back to his senses, Ye Mo walked directly inside the room. “Who exactly are you? Even Marshal Chen holds high praise for you. Seems like the identities of you and your brother are both unusual.”
“Didn’t you also disguise your own name? League chief elect of the Xuan Ji sub-league.” Li Mengli’s tone harshened even further when saying “league chief elect”.
“Alright, what did you call me here for? If you want to get to the bottom of what happened that day, I can accurately tell you that it was all the fault of the Kraken King.” Ye Mo said sheepishly.
“I know it was the Kraken King behind it. However, since we have already experienced all of that, don’t tell me you’re going to deny all of it?”
There was a hint of sternness in Li Mengli’s tone. “Now that we share that kind of a relationship, I am not a person without reason. Immediately leave that woman called Yun Chuchu, and cut off all ties with Sister Yanzhi. Now you are my man and my man only. You are all mine.”
Dominant and unreasonable – the authority of the Tianwu Kingdom Princess was shown in a single sentence.
Ye Mo said calmly, “Impossible!”
Hearing that, Li Mengli immediately burst in anger, both her fists clenched tightly as well. There had never been anyone who dared to go against her will. “What did you say?”
“Firstly, I have no feelings towards you. Secondly, Yun Chuchu is my woman – I will definitely not leave her. Thirdly, you have no right to order me.” Ye Mo said.
“Die!”
Li Mengli sent a fist strike directly towards Ye Mo that morphed into a Golden Steel Fist, piercing through the air.
Laughing coldly, Ye Mo reached out a single arm and grabbed Li Mengli’s fist. He said, “You may be in the True Energy Realm, but you are still not a worthy opponent for me. If you want me to be yours and yours only, fine. You just have to defeat me.”
Ye Mo immediately released his clutch of Li Mengli’s fist before slowly leaving the room.
“Ye Mo, just you wait. I, Li Mengli, will definitely defeat you. When that happens, you shall be belong to no one else but me,” Li Mengli said angrily, stamping her feet as she let out a loud scream.
Beneath her anger, Li Mengli was more shocked than furious – Ye Mo’s strength had growth to such heights within such a short period of time, such that even her powers in the initial stage of the True Energy Realm were useless against him. However, because of this exact reason, Li Mengli’s heart felt a hint of delight. Her man had to be a person of such high quality, didn’t he?
In the morning, Ye Mo woke up early. There was immediately a servant outside the door who delivered clear water to him. After washing up, he heard a commotion outside.
“What’s happening outside?” Ye Mo asked the servant.
“Oh, it’s like this. Our Chen Family army’s top talent, Chu Ge, has returned. General Fei Long is currently welcoming him back. Even Lady Mengli and Lady Yanzhi are there.” The servant said weakly.
“Chu Ge?” Ye Mo frowned. “Is that the Chu Ge who set to represent the Chen Family army in the league war? What mission did he execute for his return to be met with such grandeur?”
“That is to be expected. General Chu Ge is only 19 years old this year and has already reached the advanced stage of the True Energy Realm. Previously, there was a riot caused by the monsters of the Tiandu Sea. General Chu Ge went alone to settle the conflict, bringing peace to Tiandu City. A hint of admiration flashed across the eyes of the servant.
“A single person settling a riot from the monsters in the Tiandu Sea? This man must be a person of significant strength.” Ye Mo’s eyebrows rose as he spoke in a complimentary manner. The reason for the monsters in the Tiandu Sea causing a riot was most likely due to them stealing the legacy of the Kraken King, thus incurring the wrath of the Kraken Clan’s fighters.
He quickly got dressed and headed out of his room. Seeing Yun Chuchu walking towards him, the two of them prepared themselves to join in the crowd. At that moment, the road leading to the Marshal Residence was already packed with Chen Family soldiers. Ye Mo walked over and saw Chen Yanzhi holding the arm of a young man as they slowly walked towards the palace. The man carried a black longsword on his back. He had a head of long black hair over his shoulders and eager-sharp eyes, giving off a powerful aura. He wore a black cape over his body.
“Chu Ge, your mission this time has allowed your strength to improve even further. You’ll probably reach the Transcendence Realm soon. When that happens, I’m guessing that your strength will be twice as powerful as now.” Embracing Chu Ge’s arm, Chen Yanzhi saw Ye Mo within the crowd and showed a subtle smile.
“Not necessarily. Entering the Transcendence Realm requires the fusion of a will into one’s Energy Center – it is an extremely difficult task. Advancing to the Transcendence Realm is unlike anything else – I dare not attempt to do it without complete preparations.” Looking at Chen Yanzhi, who was treating him with such intimacy, Chu Ge was also at a loss. “Speaking about you, Yanzhi, I heard that you led the Chen Family army to eliminate the Northwest Bandits. The mantle of “God amongst Soldiers” is surely yours to take on in the future.
“You are too kind!” Chen Yanzhi smiled gently, her expression extremely natural, “The Princess is in the palace, let’s hurry inside!”
“Oh? What is the Princess doing here?”
“I don’t know. I heard from Father that the Emperor had sent the Princess to us, with the on-the-surface agenda being to allow the Princess to interact with my brother. However, the hidden motive is to test us. I heard that the Emperor is going to make another breakthrough soon. Perhaps he will not be in attendance for the upcoming league war.” Yanzhi said.
“What? The Emperor is going to make a breakthrough again?” Chu Ge was also shocked upon hearing that. The Emperor was the strongest amongst all, the top fighter in the Tianwu Kingdom, the one who rules over all. If he was now set to make another breakthrough, how could he not be surprised by that?
“Let’s not think too much about it. Hurry inside, the Princess and General Fei Long are inside the palace. Father will be here shortly.”
After that, Chu Ge reminded her, “The Princess has reminded us repeatedly not to expose her identity.”
With the Chen Family soldiers watching on, the two of them entered the big palace.
“General Chu Ge and the Lady are indeed a true couple who are meant to be.”
“That goes without saying. General Chu Ge is a once-in-a-lifetime talent in our army. Practising the technique of Ghostfire, he settled the monsters riot all by himself. I’m afraid there’s no one else who can take first place in the upcoming league war.”
“That remains to be seen!” One of the Chen Family soldiers interjected and disagreed. This soldier had participated in the mission to eliminate the Northwest Bandits.
“What? Are you saying that you’ve seen a man even more talented than General Chu Ge?”
“Two days ago, Ye Mo from the Xuan Ji sub-league led us to eliminate the Northwest Bandits. He deserves all the credit for our success. I think that it is he who is the perfect match for the Lady.”
“That’s right. While General Chu Ge may be strong, I feel that Ye Mo is actually stronger than him.”
Hearing all these discussions, Ye Mo shook his head sheepishly as he said, “Chuchu, since Marshal Chen is not here, let’s go and bid farewell to Chen Yanzhi.”
“Yes, I don’t like this either. Let’s return to the Qingyun League.” Yun Chuchu nodded her head.
Ye Mo and Yun Chuchu entered the palace directly, only to see Li Mengli and Chu Ge sitting on chairs and chatting. The moment Li Mengli saw Ye Mo enter the palace, she turned her gaze and immediately said, “General Chu Ge, this is the man who has a marriage contract with Sister Yanzhi!”
Expectedly, just as Li Mengli finished speaking, Ye Mo felt a sharp gaze instantly locked onto him. As for Li Mengli, she perched her petite nose upwards, feeling a mischievous sense of delight inside her heart. “Ye Mo, let’s see how you’re going to endure the fury of Chu Ge. I want to see how much your strength has developed.”
It was midnight, and the moon enshrouded the night.
Ye Mo directly headed towards Li Mengli’s room and knocked, only to realise that the door was not locked.
“Ye Xiao, come in!” Li Mengli’s voice could be heard from inside.
