In the crowd, besides Yang Ling, Shui Leqing from the Demon Sword Sect was also present, surrounded by a group of disciples from the Demon Sword Sect.
In addition, there were some disciples from the top forces near Demon Sword City, all gathered together.
There was no choice; in this region, the Demon Sword Sect, as a royal-level force, was respected. Naturally, other king-level forces had to curry favor with the seed disciples of the Demon Sword Sect, just like Xu Wang curry favoring Han Li. Once Shui Leqing became the sect master of the Demon Sword Sect, their status in their respective forces would greatly increase.
Seeing that Qin Chen and the others had caught up from behind, Shui Leqing and Yang Ling exchanged surprised glances.
How did these guys catch up? They can walk so fast?
They possessed some information from the inheritance of the Demon Sword, which was why they were able to move so quickly. Yet, these guys were able to keep up with them? After the shock, a hint of disdain flickered in their eyes. They held themselves in high regard and naturally didn’t take anyone seriously. Of course, this was also because they hadn’t discovered that You Qianxue had activated a hundred sword paths, and Qin Chen and Ji Ruyue had even activated the golden sword path, which was the supreme sword path.
If they had known, their attitude would not be like this.
However, upon seeing You Qianxue's stunning beauty and Ji Ruyue's grace, even Shui Leqing and Yang Ling's eyes lit up, and they looked at Qin Chen a second longer.
This kid’s fortune with women was simply enviable; he had two uniquely charming, celestial-like women accompanying him. It was hard to understand and accept.
Wasn't it two flowers placed on a pile of cow dung?
You Qianxue was fine; they had already seen her in the square, but where did that white-clothed woman come from?
Although Ji Ruyue wore a veil, her otherworldly aura was even more striking than Chen Sisi, the Holy Maiden from the Tian NĂĽ Gate, rivaling her in every regard. When did that kid manage to get such a beautiful woman?
The followers beside Shui Leqing and Yang Ling noticed the fleeting amazement in their eyes and immediately realized this was the perfect opportunity to flatter the two esteemed individuals.
One of them stepped forward, swiftly blocking the path of Qin Chen and the others.
However, he didn’t resort to force but politely cupped his hands and said, “I am Wan Xinliang, it’s an honor to meet the two fairies!”
The two fairies? What about Qin Chen?
He was naturally ignored.
Wan Xinliang did this on purpose; he aimed to leave Qin Chen sidelined.
You’re not pleased? Want to fight? Perfect, he could take the opportunity to teach Qin Chen a lesson, making him look foolish.
At that time, as long as Shui Leqing and Yang Ling reprimanded him, he could play the good guy while impressing the two beautiful women, instantly elevating his image.
Moreover, since Qin Chen was weak, and Yang Ling and Shui Leqing were extraordinary, the two beauties would naturally know how to choose, assuming they had any discernment.
If the two esteemed individuals took home a beauty, they would naturally have a favorable impression of him, knowing he could accomplish tasks.
Reaching this level as a bootlicker was already quite commendable.
Qin Chen waved his hand and said, “A good dog doesn’t block the way; go aside!”
“Hehe, kid, I believe I didn’t speak to you?” Wan Xinliang felt delighted inwardly, saying disdainfully with a proud expression.
So what? I just look down on you!
In the distance, Yang Ling and Shui Leqing slowed their pace. Once they stopped, others naturally did too; how could they surpass the two esteemed individuals?
With the wisdom of Shui Leqing and Yang Ling, they could guess Wan Xinliang’s intentions. The two couldn’t help but smile, not stopping him.
In their opinion, they weren’t infatuated with You Qianxue and Ji Ruyue; they merely appreciated their beauty and charm. A good bird chooses the right tree to roost on, and they believed Qin Chen wasn’t worthy of the two women. Hence, if they could let You Qianxue and Ji Ruyue see Qin Chen's “true face,” they thought they were helping the two women.
