296: Scaring Shangguan Qianyue

Returning to Cold Mountain Peak, Zhen Tianyu had already moved out.

Yang Lingchen entered the palace at the peak, then submerged himself into the haotian jade space.

"Yang Lingchen, get out here!"

Just then, Xiao Menger's heartbroken roar came from outside the palace.

Hearing the sound, Yang Lingchen quickly exited the haotian jade space and walked out of the palace.

"Senior Sister Menger," Yang Lingchen said.

"How did Brother Chen die?"

Xiao Menger's eyes were swollen red, with fresh tear stains on her face. Her hair was disheveled, and her body trembled slightly.

"Senior Sister Menger, this is what happened."

Then Yang Lingchen recounted the events concerning Yang Chen.

"It's all my fault. If it weren't for me, Brother Chen wouldn't have risked his life to hunt the Earth Flame Demon Dragon."

Xiao Menger's eyes were hollow and lifeless, her voice trembling slightly. Then she closed her eyes and fainted on the spot.

"Senior Sister Menger!"

Yang Lingchen quickly supported the collapsing Xiao Menger, then carried her into the palace.

"Yang Lingchen, get out here, This Young Lady commands you!"

Just as Yang Lingchen placed Xiao Menger on a lounge chair, Shangguan Qianyue's angry roar came from outside again.

"Young Miss Shangguan, is there something you need me for?" Yang Lingchen opened the palace door and walked out again.

"Give me back my God Crystal and immortal spirit fruit!" Shangguan Qianyue angrily extended her fair hand.

"Cough... cough...!"

Yang Lingchen lightly coughed and said, "The God Crystal and immortal spirit fruit are the price for breaking off the engagement."

"Your brother Yang Chen is already dead, so this engagement is invalid. Quickly hand over This Young Lady's God Crystal!" Shangguan Qianyue said coldly.

"Although my brother is dead, I'm not!" Yang Lingchen chuckled.

"What does your life or death have to do with me?" Shangguan Qianyue asked.

"Before my brother died, he transferred his engagement to me, so I am your fiancé." Yang Lingchen began to talk nonsense.

"Hmph."

Shangguan Qianyue snorted, then her beautiful eyes shifted, and she said, "Then I won't break off the engagement. Give me back the God Crystal."

"Are you sure you want to continue this engagement?" Yang Lingchen asked.

"Of course," Shangguan Qianyue replied.

"Ten thousand God Crystals, hand them over!" Yang Lingchen smiled and extended his hand.

"Why should This Young Lady give you ten thousand God Crystals?" Shangguan Qianyue looked bewildered.

"With my looks and talent, there are countless women in this world who want to marry me. If you want to get re-engaged with me, you'll at least need to give ten thousand God Crystals as a betrothal gift!" Yang Lingchen laughed.

"Shameless scoundrel! Today, This Young Lady will chop you to pieces!"

Shangguan Qianyue shrieked, then struck a palm towards Yang Lingchen. At this moment, she truly couldn't endure it anymore.

"Young Miss Shangguan, why so angry?"

Yang Lingchen chuckled, shifted his body to the side, and simultaneously grabbed Shangguan Qianyue's fierce palm in his hand.

"Bastard, let go!"

Seeing her wrist clamped by Yang Lingchen, Shangguan Qianyue forcefully struggled, trying to break free. But Yang Lingchen's hand was as hard as steel. No matter how she struggled, she couldn't break free an inch.

In this situation, Shangguan Qianyue suddenly kicked forward with her right leg, aiming directly for Yang Lingchen's groin.

"Holy crap, that's brutal!"

Yang Lingchen quickly dodged, while simultaneously patting Shangguan Qianyue's body several times with his right hand. Instantly, Shangguan Qianyue's body froze in place, unable to move.

"Bastard, let me go!"

At this moment, Shangguan Qianyue was incredibly shocked. She hadn't expected to be utterly helpless against Yang Lingchen.

Moreover, she could feel that Yang Lingchen seemed to have not yet achieved a Breakthrough to the Phantom God Realm, which was the most shocking part for her.

Yang Lingchen took out a pen and ink from the haotian jade space, wrote an IOU, and then stuffed it into Shangguan Qianyue's bosom.

"Young Miss Shangguan, this is my IOU. Two thousand God Crystals and one immortal spirit fruit, I will repay double in the future."

After Yang Lingchen finished speaking, he released the immobilization spell on Shangguan Qianyue.

"Bastard, you think an IOU can get rid of This Young Lady?" The recovered Shangguan Qianyue immediately tore Yang Lingchen's IOU to shreds.

"Then what do you want? I truly can't produce two thousand God Crystals and an immortal spirit fruit right now," Yang Lingchen said in a deep voice.

"Shouldn't you at least invite me in for a cup of tea? Just leave me standing at the door?" Shangguan Qianyue pouted.

"It's a bit inconvenient today," Yang Lingchen said.

After all, Xiao Menger was lying on the lounge chair in the main hall. If Shangguan Qianyue came in, it would be difficult to explain.

"What's so inconvenient? Are you hiding a woman inside?" Shangguan Qianyue asked.

"No, nothing of the sort."

Yang Lingchen said, "I just moved back here today, and I haven't had time to tidy up inside! You should go back first! I'll invite you for tea another day."

Just then, Xiao Menger, with hollow and lifeless eyes, slowly walked out of Yang Lingchen's palace.

"Senior Sister Menger? Are you alright?" Yang Lingchen quickly followed her.

Xiao Menger's condition was very poor now, and Yang Lingchen was truly afraid she might do something rash.

"Junior Brother Lingchen, I'm fine. Don't follow me, I want to be alone." Xiao Menger said, then flew off into the distance.

"Senior Sister Menger, remember to call me if you need anything!" Yang Lingchen shouted.

At this point, Shangguan Qianyue walked over, "Yang Lingchen, you didn't... do *that* to her, did you?"

"If you keep spouting nonsense, believe it or not, I'll do *that* to you!" Yang Lingchen retorted angrily.

"You dare?" Shangguan Qianyue shrieked, involuntarily stepping back several paces.

"Look how scared you are. Don't worry! I'm not interested in you." Yang Lingchen chuckled.

"Yang Lingchen, what do you mean by that?" Shangguan Qianyue's face instantly darkened.

As a renowned Genius beauty in the Black Cloud Realm, Shangguan Qianyue had been pursued by countless young talents since childhood. This was the first time someone had told her to her face that they weren't interested in her.

"N-no meaning!" Yang Lingchen looked bewildered, saying, "What's wrong?"

"How am I worse than Xiao Menger, that you're so uninterested?" Shangguan Qianyue said fiercely, like a kitten.

"Xiao Menger came looking for my brother. I'm not interested in her either," Yang Lingchen said.

"He's not interested in This Young Lady or Xiao Menger? Does he like men?" Shangguan Qianyue's willow-like brows furrowed as she murmured.

"I don't like men, stop guessing wildly," Yang Lingchen said with a helpless expression.

"Hehe...! I know, Yang Lingchen, you must have a problem in *that* area, otherwise how could you not be interested in This Young Lady and Xiao Menger?" Shangguan Qianyue pursed her lips and laughed.

"Damn it! If I don't give you a taste of your own medicine, you'll really think I'm a pushover!"

Yang Lingchen's figure flashed, instantly rushing in front of Shangguan Qianyue and kissing her red lips.

His large hands immediately began to fondle Shangguan Qianyue's body.

"Ah...! Mmm... mmm... Yang Lingchen, you bas..."

Before Shangguan Qianyue could finish her sentence, Yang Lingchen dragged her towards the palace.

"Didn't you say I couldn't do it? Today, I'll show you whether I can or not!" Yang Lingchen said with a mischievous smile.

Shangguan Qianyue struggled wildly, then threatened, "Yang Lingchen, let me go, or you're dead!"

"Little brat, still daring to threaten me? Today, I'm definitely going to have you!" Yang Lingchen smirked, directly took off his shirt, and pounced.

"Yang Lingchen, go to hell!"

Just then, Shangguan Qianyue seized an opportunity and kicked Yang Lingchen in the waist.

"Bang...!"

Yang Lingchen was kicked by Shangguan Qianyue, staggering back seven or eight steps before stopping.

Shangguan Qianyue took this opportunity to dash out of the palace.

"Yang Lingchen, you bastard, just you wait for This Young Lady!"

Shangguan Qianyue's face was pale with fright. She had never seen such a scene since she was little.

"Stinky girl, if I don't scare you, you'll really think I'm impotent!"

Watching Shangguan Qianyue's retreating back, Yang Lingchen chuckled.

He had deliberately revealed a flaw just now to let Shangguan Qianyue escape. Otherwise, with his strength, Shangguan Qianyue wouldn't have been able to get away.
