Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Chapter 1573: The Island Nation Guardian

Who is Kong Ling? She is one of the three major Guardians, and more specifically, the Sky Guardian, who wields the greatest power among them. It wouldnʼt be an exaggeration to call her the supreme deity of the entire world.

Now, to hear such words from her mouth, does it not imply that there exists a force in this world that even she cannot control?

At this thought, everyone couldnʼt help but steal a glance at Ye Fei.

The power this man had just displayed was overwhelmingly strong, beyond their comprehension. It might already be on par with the unimaginable power of Kong Ling and the other two goddesses.

However, this person clearly couldnʼt be the one the Sky Guardian was referring to; otherwise, he wouldnʼt be sitting with everyone, discussing matters.

But if one Ye Fei could emerge, then there could very well be others. Thus, while everyone was shocked or worried, no one doubted Kong Lingʼs words.

Kong Ling hadnʼt anticipated that Ye Feiʼs display of dominance would have such an effect, but it saved her the trouble of explaining further.

She directly recounted what she, Ye Fei, and Wang Yuèyáo had speculated before, and concluded by asking, ”I wonder if any of you have noticed any unusual occurrences in your respective domains?”

The Guardians looked at each other. As protectors of their territories, they were aware of every minor disturbance.

However, since they had taken on their roles, they had never sensed anything out of the ordinary, nor had they detected the presence of any powerful individuals. After a moment of contemplation, they all shook their heads.

At this moment, a short and rather repulsive-looking man stood up and said, ”My lord, since I became the Guardian, I have never encountered any unusual situations. In the past two years, I have been in seclusion until the two of you summoned me. But I believe that there have been no abnormalities in these two years, because it couldnʼt be that coincidental...”

Everyone inwardly groaned at his obvious redundancy, but then they heard him continue, ”I think the place most likely to have abnormalities is the United States. Over the years, they have been instigating wars, so the person or people you mentioned are most likely there. Itʼs just a pity...” He suddenly realized something mid-sentence, and cold sweat poured down his face. His already small frame shrank even further, as if trying to curl into a ball and disappear.

Although the man didnʼt finish his sentence, everyone understood his implication. The most likely ones to have noticed these things would be the Three Deities, but before they could be questioned, Ye Fei had killed them. In other words, the man was essentially blaming Ye Fei.

For a moment, all the Guardians couldnʼt help but look on with anticipation. This man was the Guardian of the island nation, which had always been a sworn enemy of the Dragon Nation. Now, he had recklessly offended Ye Fei. How could his fate be anything but dire?

Of course, the reason everyone was so gleeful at his misfortune was that the island nationʼs Guardian was extremely unpopular. Since becoming a Guardian over forty years ago, he had committed countless despicable acts.

Not only was he ruthless towards others, but he was even more so within his own country. Before he became the Guardian, the island nation had several other Guardians, each responsible for different areas.

However, as soon as he took office, he quickly attacked the other Guardians, defeated them, and absorbed their powers, becoming the sole Guardian of the island nation.

Through several absorptions, this man had become the most formidable expert, even surpassing top-tier masters like the Four American Deities in strength. But no matter how powerful he was, how could he be a match for Ye Fei?

At this moment, the island nationʼs Guardian was internally devastated. He had only wanted to show off in front of the two goddesses and had completely overlooked Ye Fei, the killer.

It wasnʼt until he was almost done speaking that he realized his mistake, but by then, it was already too late.

This was because he had originally intended to cause trouble for Ye Fei, so subconsciously, he wanted to stir up trouble for him. The reason for this goes back to three days ago.

Three days ago, the island nationʼs Guardian had come out of seclusion after being summoned by the two goddesses, but he didnʼt immediately head to the Dragon Nation.

Instead, he inspected his territory and discovered that his people had all become puppet-like beings.

How could he tolerate this? After investigating further, he decided to take action against Ye Fei.

However, unlike the Three Deities, the island nationʼs Guardian did not provoke Ye Fei right away. Instead, he chose to observe, which is the principle of his despicable nation—they would remain inactive or even grovel when they didnʼt understand their opponent or when their opponent was stronger.

They would only bare their fangs and strike fiercely when they surpassed their opponent in strength or when the opponent was inattentive.

This caution saved his life. After witnessing Ye Feiʼs power, he immediately chose to submit, but he didnʼt expect to still offend Ye Fei in the end, leaving him in a state of despair.

In fact, at this moment, Ye Fei was also somewhat apprehensive. Back then, he had no idea what a Guardian was; he was truly fearless and ignorant.

Thinking back, when he had occupied the entire island nation, if this Guardian hadnʼt been in seclusion, the trouble would have been immense, and even he might not have been able to withstand it.

Although there had been no direct conflict, Ye Fei was all too familiar with this repulsive nation. So even if the other party hadnʼt spoken those words just now, Ye Fei had no intention of letting him go, but not at this moment. Killing the Three Deities just now had already been somewhat disrespectful to Kong Ling. If he continued to strike, it might put her in an awkward position, after all, these Guardians were summoned by her.

Seeing that Ye Fei made no move, the island nationʼs Guardian couldnʼt help but let out a sigh of relief. However, he dared not make a sound anymore, and even Kong Ling thought Ye Fei would take action and had prepared to stop and reprimand him.

Ever since Ye Fei had embarrassed her at the entrance, she had grown to enjoy this kind of sparring with him. As for why, even she didnʼt know.

Since nothing could be learned from the discussion, Kong Ling had no choice but to instruct the Guardians to be more vigilant in the future and then dismissed them.

Although the Guardians were summoned with much ado and only told this one thing, no one thought that Kong Ling and Hai Xiner were overreacting.

On the contrary, everyone was filled with anxiety. Just as Kong Ling had said, if there was such a force in the world, it would indeed keep people on edge.

The Guardians came and went quickly. After Kong Ling announced the end of the gathering, they left in the blink of an eye, leaving only Ye Fei and the five beautiful women.

”You didnʼt say much today,” Ye Fei said to Hai Xiner after everyone had left. He had expected that with her lively personality, she would be very active today, but she had been surprisingly quiet.
