Chapter 297 A Righteous Backstab from Ye Huli
Under the night sky, moonlight shone through the dark clouds.
Bathed in moonlight, Shen Ciyuan looked like a deity lingering in the mortal world.
Ye Nanxiao frowned, stepped forward, slapped Shen Ciyuan, and scolded, "Don't talk about whether you're a good match or not. You just need to know that you're interested and Luo Xinyao is interested. That's enough."
"Sometimes I really envy you, Nanxiao. You are so powerful, so powerful that you can disregard worldly matters," Shen Ciyuan said with a look of envy.
"Can't you do it too?" Ye Nanxiao retorted.
Judging from Shen Ciyuan's current path, he is aiming to become a combat support role, making him a truly well-rounded talent.
A support that can tank, deal damage, and heal—what else could be a good support but a tank?
Shen Ciyuan shook his head slightly and said, "You wouldn't understand."
Looking at the dejected Shen Ciyuan, Ye Nanxiao carefully considered the current status of support-type Soul Masters who could take on five opponents at once. They were even more popular than control-type and power-attack-type Soul Masters.
If this were placed in the imperial palace, taking Xu Jiawei's level of imperial palace combat power as an example, with Ci Yuan's current abilities, he would be able to sit in the position of the Guardian Soul Mentor Group.
"This guy seems to lack confidence? Or did Luo Xinyao beat him up when he was a kid and ruined his brain?" Ye Nanxiao muttered to himself.
"Perhaps, he set his goals too high, so he is very dissatisfied with himself now. Isn't that how it is in novels? The protagonist is not satisfied with his current status and promises the heroine that he will marry her with a grand wedding procession after he achieves success," Xue Di suddenly said.
"It's not impossible, but this guy seems to really hate his hometown," Ye Nanxiao said.
"Usually, the best thing to do in this situation is to just tie them up, clean them up, and put them in bed. Once it's too late, they won't be able to escape," Xue Di suggested with a wicked smile.
Ye Nanxiao wholeheartedly agreed with Xue Di's suggestion: "That's exactly what I was thinking!"
Ye Nanxiao said to Shen Ciyuan, "I do have a pretty good way to solve your current problem."
Upon hearing this, Shen Ciyuan instantly perked up, sprang to his feet, and asked expectantly, "What method? Is there some kind of magical potion that can instantly make me reach the top position in terms of time!"
Ye Nanxiao slapped him across the face without expression. "Potions? Are you on drugs? Aren't you afraid of sending yourself to heaven?"
Shen Ciyuan rubbed his head and said, "Didn't you say before that the rich rely on technology, and the poor rely on mutations?"
"Enough with the nonsense!" Ye Nanxiao produced a large sack in his hand.
Looking at the large sack, a big question mark immediately appeared on Shen Ciyuan's head. He looked at the sack in Ye Nanxiao's hand and felt that Ye Nanxiao's idea was not a good one.
"Hey, Nanxiao, Brother Xiao! Calm down, impulsiveness is the devil!" Shen Ciyuan yelled, realizing he was standing on Ye Nanxiao's ice floe with nowhere to run.
Fifteen minutes later, Ye Nanxiao arrived at the entrance of the village, carrying a huge sack.
Xiao Ye No. 4, looking worried, was waiting here with a young girl.
The girl looked at the struggling sack behind Ye Nanxiao, a hint of satisfaction flashing in her eyes.
"Thanks, Ye Nanxiao."
"Don't mention it. I've always been happy to help others, don't you think, Luo Xinyao?"
Luo Xinyao stretched out a vine to tie up the sack, opened the sack, and revealed Shen Ciyuan's head.
Seeing Shen Ciyuan with an apple stuffed in his mouth, Luo Xinyao reached out and tugged at his cheek, sneering, "Go ahead and run. Aren't you supposed to be a fast runner? You actually dared to send me away beforehand this time?"
Luo Xinyao lightly kissed Shen Ciyuan's terrified face and said to Ye Nanxiao, "I owe you a favor this time."
Ye Nanxiao shook his head slightly. "It's not really a favor. Just give me some rare metals in return."
"It seems the rumors are true; you were made of rare metals in your past life. You like rare metals so much." Luo Xinyao smiled.
Regarding Ye Nanxiao's statement, Luo Xinyao felt that she had gotten a great deal. After all, rare metals are things that can be obtained with money and power, and she happened to have both.
Ye Nanxiao chuckled twice, "My small sect has to burn rare metals every day to make a living. We can't afford not to prepare more rare metals."
Luo Xinyao nodded, took out her flying soul tool and put it on. She circled the sack and found that even with the vines binding Shen Ciyuan, she still found it difficult to fly. Moreover, they were still a long way from the capital city of Tianhun.
Looking back at Shen Ciyuan, Luo Xinyao said, "How about I let you go, and you come back with me?"
Shen Ciyuan shook his head frantically, his whole body arching and swaying with the sack, looking just like a Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm.
Ye Nanxiao was amused and took a bunch of pictures of Shen Ciyuan with the "sphere".
It's essential to keep these materials as embarrassing memories for the future, otherwise, when you have children, you'll have to rely on these embarrassing memories to ask Beibei and others for gifts.
After struggling for a moment and making a few "oohs" sounds, Shen Ciyuan realized he couldn't spit out the apple in his mouth. He looked dejected, his eyes full of accusation against Ye Nanxiao.
Luo Xinyao stepped forward, took the apple from Shen Ciyuan's mouth, squatted down in front of him, and gently asked, "Will you come back with me?"
"No way!" Shen Ciyuan said sternly, then looked at Ye Nanxiao, "Ye Nanxiao! I treat you like a brother! Is this how you treat your brother? Let go of me! We're the four closest brothers! We've been through thick and thin together, sob sob sob!"
Luo Xinyao expressionlessly stuffed the apple in her hand into Shen Ciyuan's mouth again.
Watching Luo Xinyao take out a rope and tie the sack several times, Ye Nanxiao shook his head slightly and clicked his tongue a few times. "This is a righteous backstab for me, buddy. You should go home with your wife and enjoy your life. With such a strong wife, you're not afraid of being bullied."
Shen Ciyuan was like a carp that had been caught and pulled ashore, constantly thrashing about.
Upon hearing Ye Nanxiao's words, Luo Xinyao's face broke into a bright smile, clearly pleased with how Ye Nanxiao addressed her.
"Bring Nannan and Sister Xiaotao over then, they can be our witnesses," Luo Xinyao said with a smile.
Ye Nanxiao nodded, and a piece of floating ice formed beneath his feet. "Then I look forward to your wedding."
"Come visit Tiandou City when you have time. Although it's not a big city, Shen Ciyuan can still be a tour guide." Two thick vines stretched out from behind Luo Xinyao and grabbed Shen Ciyuan.
Ye Nanxiao nodded, noted down Luo Xinyao's words, and then flew away.
"The Shen and Luo families of Tianhun, according to Shrek Academy's information, are powerful families with immense influence in the court. Shen Ciyuan is the eldest son of the Shen family, and Luo Xinyao is the eldest daughter of the Luo family. This is interesting. If we can help Shen Ciyuan control the Shen family, then the subsequent conquest of the Tianhun Empire will be much easier," Ye Nanxiao muttered.
"Are you so sure that kid can regain control of the Shen family? Aren't you afraid he'll turn against you later? Your betrayal today caught you completely off guard." Xue Di revealed herself, floating beside Ye Nanxiao, her jade-like hand skillfully wrapping around Ye Nanxiao's neck, half-hanging on him.
Ye Nanxiao supported Xue Di's slender waist and said, "Shen Ciyuan may not have the intention to control things, but Luo Xinyao is different. This girl is too strong. Analyzing from Shen Ciyuan's story, Luo Xinyao will not give up control over the family's interests just because she is a woman. I guess this is why Luo Xinyao does not give way to her younger brothers at all."
"That little girl is indeed assertive. Judging from that boy's appearance, he'll probably be a junior member of the family like you in the future." Xue Di climbed onto Ye Nanxiao's back and gently stroked the long hair hanging down at Ye Nanxiao's temples with her jade-like hands.
"Maybe so. No wonder Shen Ciyuan and I get along so well." Ye Nanxiao did not refute. After a month or two of suppression, he had already acknowledged his position as the younger brother in the family.
"We might have to ask Luo Xinyao for help when we go to Tianhun later," Ye Nanxiao said. "Besides, even if someone is a pig, I can still put them on the table. Shen Ciyuan is at least a little smarter than a pig, right?"
"Probably," Xue Di said uncertainly.
Ye Nanxiao quickly returned to the previous battle site.
The battle scars on the hilltop have been erased, and even the trees that were broken by the aftershocks of the battle have been replanted.
From the outside, the cave where the evil spirit master had entered was pitch black, and after taking a few steps, he encountered a thick stone wall.
Ye Nanxiao ignored the stone wall in front of him and walked straight up to it.
A faint glow emanated from the stone wall, and Ye Nanxiao walked right through it.
Just as Ye Nanxiao passed through the stone wall, Xiao Ye No. 2, who was on guard outside, kept changing positions.
After Ye Nanxiao entered the cave, the "spheres" floating in the air emitted a soft glow, illuminating the entire cave.
Xiao Ye No. 3 was wearing an astronaut protective suit and squatting in front of a dark soul guide device that was not completely damaged.
The dark soul tool resembled a large square box with a cannon muzzle on each of its four sides. Deep lines crisscrossed the surface of the box, which was covered in cracks due to the destruction caused by the evil soul master.
"What's this?" Ye Nanxiao put on his astronaut protective suit and walked up to the large box.
"Preliminary assessment: it's a soul tool," Xiao Ye No. 3 said without batting an eye.
"Can this thing transform?" Ye Nanxiao asked, pointing to the deep lines on the large box with his finger.
"I think so. Besides, this is something transported by the Holy Spirit Cult. Although judging from the quality of the squad, this thing may not be a high-end item, it is very likely a soul tool for the soul, or rather, a soul tool for ordinary people," said Xiao Ye No. 3.
Ye Nanxiao nodded in agreement with Xiao Ye No. 3's analysis. The highest cultivation level in the entire team was that of the Soul Saint with the Black Flame Serpent Martial Soul, so the Soul Guidance Device in front of them shouldn't be anything too valuable.
Ye Nanxiao's body was covered with a thin layer of frost. He removed the protective suit from his right hand and placed his hand on the large box.
The Snow Empress emanated a faint aura, her eyes fixed on Ye Nanxiao's right hand touching the large box. If anything went wrong, she could instantly freeze and seal the large box.
