Chapter 242: Action
Faced with the two girls' burning and curious gazes, Ye Fei coughed a few times: "Ahem, we've been together for a while now. He was the one who expressed his feelings to me first, but it's a two-way street. He likes me, and naturally, I like him too."
Yu Muhan blinked, her face full of longing: "Will I be able to see you two get married in my lifetime?"
Ye Fei was speechless: "...This marriage is a bit too far-fetched."
Yun Fusang rested her chin on her hand, staring intently at Ye Fei: "Actually, judging from Li's attire and behavior, as well as his ability to defuse the Second Elder's pressure last time, I don't think he's an ordinary person."
Upon hearing this, Ye Fei's expression froze for a moment before she said, "I'm sorry, I can't reveal Li's identity to you yet, but I can assure you that he won't harm anyone in the team. I hope you can understand."
Yun Fusang nodded: "I understand. Everyone has secrets they can't tell. It's not too late to tell them when you feel it's appropriate."
Yu Muhan raised his hand and gently rubbed Ye Fei's face: "We can all understand you. We are good friends and partners. Your decision to tell us this shows that you trust us, right?"
Ye Fei smiled and said, "Yes, I trust you."
"Of course, this is a secret between us girls, and we hope you can keep it a secret from Rong Yu and the others for the time being."
The three girls reached a consensus, and under the hazy moonlight, the atmosphere was tranquil and beautiful.
...
The month of trials is drawing ever closer.
These days, everyone in the training team is working hard to improve themselves.
But the one who works the hardest is Ye Fei. In addition to attending classes, she also has to cultivate ancient martial arts and her own spiritual energy, regularly spar with other teammates or team up to participate in mercenary missions, learn alchemy from Lian, and take time to study the techniques of wood-type spiritual masters.
Ye Fei's entire day was meticulously planned, which indirectly led to her having less and less time to spend alone with Li Yuan.
As soon as night fell, Ye Fei would be so tired that she would fall asleep as soon as her head hit the bed, and Li Yuan could only sneak into her room quietly each time.
Looking at the girl's exhausted face, Li Yuan felt a pang of heartache.
But he understood that if he stopped her now, all his efforts would be in vain.
She needs more experience before she can one day reach the pinnacle of this world.
Li Yuan tenderly lowered his head to kiss her face, his hand stroking her long hair, which was not completely dry after her bath, and secretly channeled his spiritual energy to dry it.
"Your Excellency."
Jiang Bai's voice came from outside the door. Li Yuan casually covered Ye Fei with the blanket, turned around and walked out of the room. The gentleness on his handsome face disappeared instantly: "Speak."
"According to the latest news from Li Yu, Thorn has been frequently appearing at the summit of Panlong." Jiang Bai replied respectfully, "Li Yu has confirmed that it is not Thorn's clone, but himself."
Li Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly. Bai didn't hear Li Yuan's reply. He paused for a moment, then continued, "In addition, there are rumors of young human women going missing in Lingyun, Xingluo, and Wushuang kingdoms recently."
"Now, the people of the three kingdoms are in a state of panic, and many are speculating, with some even pointing the finger at the demon realm and the demon race."
“Thorns has begun to act.” Li Yuan’s voice was cold. “He cultivates demonic plants to lure other human women into implanting them into his body.”
If I'm not mistaken, Thorn became suspicious of Fei'er's special ability to tame the Prisoner Orchid, which is why he frequently kidnapped human women for experimentation during this period.
