Zhang Xinyan smiled faintly.
She thought Chen Jie must be with Wang Xiaoyan now, so what was the point of calling him?
Wasn't that provoking her?
She decided against it.
She didn't even know why she had acted that way just now.
"I agree," Chen Jie said suddenly.
"Ah?" Zhang Xinyan was stunned, then secretly delighted. "Then, I'll wait for you. I'm at the Sheraton Hotel."
"Okay."
After hanging up, Wang Xiaoyan brought over some food. "Chen Jie, time to eat! I made this myself, so don't you dare dislike it!"
Chen Jie nodded.
He said to Wang Xiaoyan, "Xiaoyan, I need to go see Zhang Xinyan later."
Wang Xiaoyan's expression changed slightly.
Chen Jie quickly added, "Don't misunderstand..."
"No, Chen Jie, do whatever you want. I won't stop you," Wang Xiaoyan quickly interrupted him.
"It's not that..."
"It's fine," Wang Xiaoyan said with a smile.
Chen Jie could only nod helplessly.
"Master," Lin Mengjiao walked over and nodded at Chen Jie.
Chen Jie looked at her in surprise.
He noticed that Lin Mengjiao was wearing the same outfit as Wang Xiaoyan today.
Both of them were in white mini-skirts, their slender legs exposed.
However, the same clothes on two different people exuded entirely different auras.
Lin Mengjiao's seductive charm was undeniable, while Wang Xiaoyan seemed like a fairy fallen from heaven.
He then realized that they both seemed to have dressed up with great care.
"Mengjiao, stay with Xiaoyan and protect her," Chen Jie said.
"Yes, Master. I will protect my Mistress well."
Lin Mengjiao nodded.
Hearing this, Wang Xiaoyan blushed slightly.
But she didn't say anything more.
Chen Jie ate his meal in a hurry and prepared to go to Zhang Xinyan's place.
Lin Mengjiao had wanted to return the car to Chen Jie, but Chen Jie didn't drive.
He remembered Lin Shuang's instructions to keep a low profile in the provincial capital.
"Then, we'll take you there!" Wang Xiaoyan suddenly said.
"This..." Chen Jie looked troubled.
Wang Xiaoyan giggled, "Don't worry, I won't overthink it. We'll just drop you off and leave. We won't make things difficult for you!"
Chen Jie thought that he had nothing to hide, so he didn't say anything more.
Soon, Lin Mengjiao drove the car up to them.
Chen Jie and Wang Xiaoyan got into the car.
On the way, Chen Jie's heart stirred as he sensed a commotion from his storage ring.
He turned his hand, and a bunch of black flowers was taken out by him.
Wang Xiaoyan looked at Chen Jie in surprise, not knowing where he had gotten the flowers from.
However, she didn't dwell on it.
"Kid, I can sense my Great Treasure Sword! It seems extremely excited!"
"Oh?" Chen Jie asked, puzzled.
"Chen Jie, who are you talking to?" Wang Xiaoyan asked curiously.
Chen Jie replied, "There's a consciousness sealed within these flowers, but only I can communicate with it."
"Ah? Is it that magical?"
Fang Shaohua's consciousness exclaimed, "What a beautiful woman! The most beautiful I've ever seen! Girl, what's your name? What's your relationship with Chen Jie?"
The Bian Hua flower trembled, but Wang Xiaoyan couldn't hear his voice.
Chen Jie said, "It's asking about your relationship with me."
Wang Xiaoyan proactively linked her arm through Chen Jie's and said with a smile, "I'm Chen Jie's wife! Chen Jie is my husband! Of course, the kind who hasn't married me yet!"
"What? You're also Chen Jie's wife? What about Zhang Xinyan? Isn't that girl Zhang Xinyan also supposed to marry Chen Jie?" Fang Shaohua was shocked.
This kid, finding one earthly beauty was one thing, but finding two? What a scumbag!
Fang Shaohua thought back to how he had focused solely on his career in the past and never paid attention to women.
But looking at Chen Jie, he felt he had missed out on so much.
Chen Jie's face darkened, looking strangely conflicted.
But these words, he couldn't possibly tell Wang Xiaoyan.
"Chen Jie, the flowers are moving again. What is it saying to me? Tell me quickly!" Wang Xiaoyan said curiously.
Chen Jie's face darkened, and he remained silent.
Lin Mengjiao in the front said, "He's saying that Master has another wife named Zhang Xinyan, and you're also his wife?"
Chen Jie froze, then glared fiercely at Lin Mengjiao.
He had forgotten that Lin Mengjiao was also a cultivator and could hear Fang Shaohua's voice.
Wang Xiaoyan's face turned red. She said to the Bian Hua flower, "That's because I'm Chen Jie's main wife! Zhang Xinyan is the concubine!"
"Ah, ah, you scoundrel..." Fang Shaohua roared, and the Bian Hua flower shook even more violently.
"Kid, you sure know how to enjoy yourself, huh? You must be very busy tonight, right? Tell me, is the one in front also your wife?"
Fang Shaohua asked fiercely.
In the front, Lin Mengjiao's face flushed, and she stared intently at Chen Jie through the rearview mirror.
Chen Jie's face darkened. "You'd better just stay put."
He was about to put the Bian Hua flower back into his storage ring when Fang Shaohua quickly said, "Wait! I almost forgot to ask you, what's going on with my Great Treasure Sword? It's never acted like this before!"
"Could it be... could it be that it's so excited because it met me?"
Fang Shaohua exclaimed excitedly, "I knew it! This old friend hasn't forgotten me!"
"You're thinking too much. It's not because of you!" Chen Jie's expression suddenly turned solemn, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes.
"Then why?"
"Because yesterday, I used this sword to kill many people." Chen Jie said.
"What? Didn't you only kill Hai Chunsheng and Cao Hanzi?" Fang Shaohua asked.
"And other people from the Sorcery Association."
Chen Jie added.
"People from the Sorcery Association? Tell me who they were. Maybe I knew them!"
Fang Shaohua said.
"Everyone..." Chen Jie replied.
"What? Are you lying to me? What did you do?"
Fang Shaohua initially didn't believe him, but the Great Treasure Sword's reaction made him start to believe it faintly.
Afterward, Chen Jie told him about Deng Zhou and Cao Hanzi teaming up against him.
Fang Shaohua was utterly shocked.
"You, my boy, have quite the spirit of my youth. Back then, people called me Fang the Demon."
Fang Shaohua said.
Although he said this, in reality, he was no match for Chen Jie.
Even at his peak, he couldn't have killed all the people from the Sorcery Association head-on.
He could have killed them all, but he would have had to defeat them one by one.
Yet Chen Jie, with the Great Treasure Sword, had killed everyone from the Sorcery Association in a frontal assault.
The grand hotel arrived.
Lin Mengjiao stopped the car.
Wang Xiaoyan said to Chen Jie, "Chen Jie, go have fun with Zhang Xinyan. I'll go to the company with Mengjiao first!"
Chen Jie nodded. "Be careful. Contact me immediately if anything happens."
"Okay!"
Chen Jie got out of the car. He didn't immediately go to find Zhang Xinyan but quickly booked a room at the hotel reception.
Once in the room, he quickly took out the bronze sword.
He saw that the bronze sword was still trembling slightly.
