Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 1721: Chapter 1720: Heading to Zhongnan Mountain Tomorrow!

Ye Tianchen certainly did not expect that his playful and adorable sister would grow up to be so gossipy!

”Brother, I’m talking about you and Sister Rumei, why are you bringing this back to me?” Ye Qianwen pouted slightly unhappily.

”I’m not bringing this back to you, but I’ve been meaning to tell you for a while. Although Liu Fei might be somewhat unreliable, he’s truly sincere towards you. You’re not that young anymore, maybe you should start considering personal matters!” Ye Tianchen looked seriously at his sister, Ye Qianwen.

”Why would I be anxious? You’re my brother, and you haven’t gotten married yet, so I’m not in a rush!” Ye Qianwen chuckled as she spoke.

”No way! Are you saying if your brother doesn’t get married in this lifetime, you won’t either?” Ye Tianchen asked, slightly annoyed, glancing at Ye Qianwen.

”There’s a lot of people who choose not to marry nowadays. Being single has its benefits... Brother, could it be you’re... this... no way, the mission of passing on the Ye family legacy is supposed to be yours...” Ye Qianwen suddenly thought of something and looked at Ye Tianchen with a very peculiar expression.

Seeing his sister Ye Qianwen’s expression like this, Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but furrow his brow. He naturally understood what his sister was thinking. For so many years, Ye Tianchen has practically never brought a formal girlfriend home, even though the women surrounding him were never short of stunning beauties. Yet, Ye Tianchen never seemed interested, not even showing the typical male impulses, so no wonder his sister was starting to suspect he might prefer men!

Actually, whether he likes men or women, only Ye Tianchen knows best in his heart. In this lifetime, he’s learned too much, changed too much. Ye Tianchen has his own goals and missions. Some things just have to be put aside for now. Moreover, Ye Tianchen doesn’t dare to give any woman any promises; the world is unpredictable, and the Martial Arts World is too bloody and brutal. How far can he go? No one knows.

”I say you little rascal, just manage your own affairs for now, and stop meddling in your brother’s!” Ye Tianchen gently tapped Ye Qianwen’s head and then walked toward his residence in the villa!

Watching her brother’s back, Ye Qianwen couldn’t help but mutter to herself, ”Does my brother really like men? He’s not even moved by a stunning beauty like Sister Liu Rumei?”

”Does your brother really like men?” Suddenly, Liu Fei’s voice echoed from behind Ye Qianwen.

”What are you, some kind of ghost? Why are you always sneaking up behind me? Can you at least give me a heads up?” Ye Qianwen glared at Liu Fei with irritation.

”Hehe, Qianwen, I’m just trying to protect you. I’ll be more careful next time!” Liu Fei chuckled as he replied.

”Who needs your protection? Isn’t our Ye family’s mansion safe enough? Seriously, I can’t be bothered with you!” Ye Qianwen sighed and then walked toward the outside of the Ye family villa!

”Hey, Qianwen, wait for me, wait for me! Where are you going? I’ll drive you!” Liu Fei called out loudly as he chased after Ye Qianwen.

”To Sea King Group!” Ye Qianwen replied impatiently.

”Why are you going to Sea King Group? Are you still going to work at this hour?” Liu Fei asked with confusion, seeing Ye Qianwen heading to Sea King Group in the afternoon.

”It’s not going to work, it’s overtime. Your sister wants to travel with my brother, so I need to quickly get familiar with Sea King Group’s business, or else I’ll be holding your sister back!” Ye Qianwen said seriously.

”Overtime is great; I love working overtime. I’ll drive you; wait for me at the door!” Liu Fei quickly smiled, running toward the parking garage.

Ye Tianchen returned to his residence in the villa. Having somewhat finished his lunch, he yawned, and pushed the door open; Ye Tianchen didn’t have to think to know that the burly man with a knife at his back was once again on the sofa, snacking and watching TV. The burly man, on his first visit to the Mortal World, was clearly captivated by many worldly things, though not tempted. As he said, if he could enjoy a bit, he would. The bloody brutality of the Martial Arts World, with its relentless killing, was truly tiresome, and the comfort and tranquility of the Mortal World were very appealing.

Most mortals envy martial artists for their ability to fly and escape, being omnipotent, but they don’t know how many life-and-death challenges a martial artist must endure, always at risk of death, facing possible extinction in an instant. It’s better to live long like a mortal!

”Brother, you’re back. Come have a few drinks with your old man!” The burly man with the knife grinned and said.

Ye Tianchen smiled and walked over, sitting down on the nearby sofa and said, ”Old man, your days are indeed pleasant. Enjoy it while you can; we should be heading to the Hidden World soon.”

”Got any leads?” The burly man heard Ye Tianchen’s words and hurriedly stood up from the sofa; despite the comfortable days, he hadn’t lost sight of their mission in the Mortal World.

”Not yet!” Ye Tianchen chuckled slyly.

”Brother, with no leads, how will we know where the Mortal World’s Hidden World is or how to get there?” The burly man asked with some frustration.

”I’m planning a trip to Zhongnan Mountain; I should have leads soon. Old man, are you going with me?” Ye Tianchen asked.

”I’ll skip it; you’re going to woo the ladies, to roam the mountains and waters, so what’s the point of me tagging along?” The burly man shook his head, laughing.

”Alright, I’ll come back and let you know once I have news!” Ye Tianchen nodded.

”How about this, once you have news of the Hidden World, use Rune Skill to notify me, and we’ll rendezvous.” The burly man suggested after thinking for a while.

”That works, saves some time!” Ye Tianchen replied.

”Then it’s settled; enjoy yourself, brother!” The burly man said with a mischievous grin.

Ye Tianchen and the burly man drank together, chatting away. It’s a fact that they get along well. Ye Tianchen also decided that he would set off for Zhongnan Mountain tomorrow. Despite looking for Yong Chun Tai, he hopes to glean a few clues about the Mortal World’s ”Hidden World,” ideally to discover its precise location, allowing them to enter the ”Hidden World” swiftly.

Actually, Ye Tianchen understands that his time in the Mortal World is limited. If not for the fact that someone secretly cursed his parents, Ye Tianchen would probably have already explained to his parents and sister, hoping they’d also follow him into the Ancient Martial World. However, because of such events, Ye Tianchen realized that the seemingly straightforward Mortal World is not that simple; there exists a ”Hidden World.” If it’s not found and understood, when he explains it to his family, and they opt to remain in the Mortal World despite his invitation, he must clarify who’s been secretly targeting his parents. Without settling this, how could Ye Tianchen return to the Ancient Martial World with true peace of mind, or even leave Earth to enter the real Martial Arts World?

Staying long-term in the Mortal World isn’t feasible for Ye Tianchen. Since entering the Ancient Martial World, he’s become a strong martial artist, making new friends along the way, gaining new goals and responsibilities. He’s bound to return to the Ancient Martial World. However, the Mortal World issues will be resolved, that’s certain!

”Old man, during my trip to Zhongnan Mountain, I might have news soon or it might take a few days. I’m worried that the one who secretly attacked my family might act again. Please look after them for a while!” Ye Tianchen looked at the burly man and said.

”Don’t worry, brother. With me here, no one can do anything. Plus, I’ve been freeloading off the Ye family, time to pull my weight!” The burly man chuckled.

”With your words, I can rest easy!” Ye Tianchen nodded.

In the dead of night, Ye Tianchen sat cross-legged alone at the top of his villa, a powerful aura spreading. Gradually, his Divine Thought enveloped the entire old Ye mansion. Above the Ye mansion, a light screen appeared, much like a Thunder Grid, unfolding continuously, covering the entire Ye mansion. At the center of the light screen, two peerless Divine Swords lay hidden: Xuanyuan Sword and Fish Intestine Sword. This formation was laid by Ye Tianchen upon leaving the Mortal World last time, to protect his parents and the Ye family from catastrophic danger, led by these two peerless Divine Swords!

Forming the ”Receive” hand sign, Ye Tianchen extended his right hand, retracting the two Divine Swords into his body. Now, he no longer wishes to set a formation like this. Even if he does, it won’t be built around these two Divine Swords as Treasure, because Ye Tianchen sensed that the ten Ancient Divine Swords aren’t simple; there might be some kind of karma. Over time, in such a scenario, something bad might happen to his family and the Ye family.

Retrieving the Xuanyuan Sword and Fish Intestine Sword into his body, Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but use Divine Thought to examine these swords. There was no abnormality, yet they gave him a sense of extraordinariness. He’s already acquired three of the ten Ancient Divine Swords. What would happen if he gathered all ten? Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but ponder...(To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes on Qidian (qidian.com), your support is my greatest motivation.
