Chapter 171 – Intentions (1/2)

Yin Xuan’er laughed coldly. She was just about to say something when Yang Ye shouted. “Enough!”

At this moment, he was extremely annoyed. He’d come here to take care of important business and not to watch the two of them confront and attack each other.

Qin Xiyue walked gracefully over to Yang Ye’s side and revealed a gentle smile as she said, “Alright, don’t be angry. I won’t argue with her.” Her features were so warm and gentle that it almost seemed capable of melting icecaps.

Yang Ye. ”....”

Yin Xuan’er grunted coldly, and then she looked at Yang Ye and said, “I’m going out. I’ll return once I’ve finished attending to my business!”

“Where are you going?” Yang Ye frowned and said, “You know that you’re the public enemy of the entire southern territory. What if the six great powers notice you?”

“Are you concerned about me?” Yin Xuan’er suddenly cracked a smile.

Yang Ye said indifferently, “I’m afraid you’d stir up trouble and drag me down with you!”

Yin Xuan’er’s expression turned cold while she said, “Don’t worry, I won’t implicate you!” As soon as she finished speaking, her figure flashed and vanished in the room.

After she left, Qin Xiyue said, “Little Brother, you’re clearly concerned about her, so why did you speak like that?”

“Was I?” Yang Ye smiled and said, “Or perhaps I should say, does she need the concern of others? Don’t forget that she’s a Spirit Realm expert that’s skilled in all sorts of illusion techniques. Even an Exalt Realm expert might not be able to take her life!”

Qin Xiyue said, “Little Brother, she’s so beautiful. Are you really not tempted by her at all? Big Sister noticed that she seems to have some interest in you. But she’d just too prideful, so she refuses to show any weakness. If you’re still angry at her because of what happened that day, then there’s entirely no need for that because she might have acted in that way out of jealousy!”

“Jealousy?” Yang Ye was puzzled. “What jealousy?”

“Fool!” Qin Xiyue rolled her eyes at him and said, “She can’t stand to watch us having such an intimate relations.h.i.+p. She definitely didn’t target me that day solely because I’m a princess of the Grand Qin Empire, and it’s mostly because our relations.h.i.+p is too intimate!”

“Don’t joke around!” Yang Ye shook his head and said, “I feel that I, Yang Ye, don’t possess such great charm that I’m able to make a Spirit Realm Expert who’d just met me once to fall in love with me. Moreover, our relations.h.i.+p isn’t intimate, right?”

“How do you know that you don’t possess such charm?” Qin Xiyue smiled and said, “Moreover, Little Brother, can you really say that with a clear conscience? You’ve hugged and kissed Big Sister, and all that’s left is to spend a night together. If this isn’t intimate, then what is? Could it be that we really have to spend a night together?”

”....”

Yang Ye was truly speechless. He wasn’t one that was good at talking with women, so he was always in a pa.s.sive position when he was in the company of Qin Xiyue. However, for some unknown reason, he actually didn’t dislike it.

Could it be that men really like things like this sometimes? Yang Ye shook his head and said with a serious expression. “Let’s not talk about all of that and get down to business. How is the formation of that organization going?”

Qin Xiyue restrained her smile and said, “I’ve taken in some orphans in secret, and I’ve started training them. However, we’re slightly tight in terms of resources. Besides funds, we face another problem, and it’s that we don’t possess any suitable techniques and teachers for them. Even though I’m at the King Realm, I’m not skilled in a.s.sa.s.sinations. So, the biggest problem we face is that we must purchase some cultivation techniques and combat techniques related to a.s.sa.s.sins and find some people skilled in a.s.sa.s.sination to teach them!”

Yang Ye frowned because establis.h.i.+ng this organization of a.s.sa.s.sins was even more difficult and troublesome than he’d imagined! The problem with funding wasn’t a huge issue because he was a Talisman Master after all. But the matter of obtaining cultivation techniques and combat techniques related to a.s.sa.s.sinations and teachers skilled in a.s.sa.s.sinations was slightly difficult to resolve. After all, such techniques were extremely rare in the southern territory, and they couldn’t just be bought with money!

However, if those orphans were given ordinary techniques to learn, then how could they go against a colossus like the Flower Palace? Only a.s.sa.s.sins might be able to create a slight threat to the Flower Palace.

Meanwhile, Qin Xiyue said, “I can procure a.s.sa.s.sination techniques!”

Yang Ye was delighted. “You can?”

Qin Xiyue nodded and said, “There are numerous privately and secretly held auctions in the Imperial Capital. Not to mention a.s.sa.s.sination techniques, even Earth Rank techniques could be purchased during these auctions. However, privately-held sales like these were usually conducted by way of exchange. In other words, we can only use other treasures to exchange for what we need!”

“Would talismans of the five elements and Technique Talismans be sufficient?” asked Yang Ye.
