"Boom!"
The tall tent suddenly exploded, with the firelight illuminating the dark night.
Han Li and Xiao Yan flew out from the tent one after another, fighting as they went flying into the distance.
Fang Zhou was completely bewildered; clearly, it was the conflict between him and Xiao Yan.
When he admitted it, he was mentally prepared, expecting Xiao Yan to hurl insults or even take action against him, while Han Li, feeling deceived, looked on coldly.
But why did it end up with Xiao Yan fighting Han Li?
What about me?
You're just leaving me here?
Fang Zhou, with a face full of black lines, followed them.
Han Li and Xiao Yan quickly flew out of Batos City; mainly, Han Li was running, Xiao Yan was chasing. When Xiao Yan wanted to turn back, Han Li quickly stopped her.
"Sister, why are you helping him?! You know he's my enemy!"
Xiao Yan questioned loudly while attacking.
Han Li showed a bitter expression: "I just don't want you guys to fight. There must be a misunderstanding between you; can't you sit down and have a sincere talk?"
"There won't be a misunderstanding!"
Xiao Yan interrupted Han Li loudly: "For almost three years, I've never forgotten the humiliation he caused me back then. You should be well aware of how I have spent these past three years."
Han Li parried Xiao Yan's offensive, smiling bitterly: "I know you have grievances in your heart, so vent it on me. Let me take the brunt of your anger for him."
Xiao Yan became even angrier upon hearing this: "Sister, you're being stubborn."
Fang Zhou caught up, seeing them locked in combat, he urgently shouted: "Stop it, you guys stop it, don't fight anymore!"
The two sisters ignored him, their eyes focused solely on each other.
Fang Zhou shouted again: "Don't fight; your way won't kill anyone!"
Han Li only defended without attacking, Xiao Yan's strikes all hit empty air. Neither sister wanted to harm the other; fighting until the end of time wouldn't bring a conclusion.
Fang Zhou's words immediately stopped Han Li and Xiao Yan, their gaze turned to him.
Xiao Yan's gaze was filled with anger; in her ears, Fang Zhou's words sounded like blatant sarcasm.
Han Li also felt slight dissatisfaction; originally, they were close sisters, and now they were fighting because of whom?
How can you have the face to say such sarcastic things here?
Fang Zhou gave Han Li an apologetic smile, then said to Xiao Yan: "Can you listen to me..."
"No!"
Xiao Yan suddenly shouted angrily, interrupting Fang Zhou, then lunged toward him.
"Stop!"
Han Li wanted to stop her but was already too late; Xiao Yan flew in front of Fang Zhou in an instant and raised her hand to hit his much-hated face.
"Boom!"
Xiao Yan's hand was wrapped in blazing Exotic Species True Fire, a temperature sufficient to melt steel, which directly struck Fang Zhou's face. The fire exploded fiercely, engulfing Fang Zhou completely.
"Fang Zhou!"
Han Li exclaimed in surprise, even knowing that the Golden Core Realm Fang Zhou certainly wouldn't lose to Xiao Yan, who had only recently ascended to the Innate Realm.
But seeing him attacked, she couldn't help but feel worried.
The flames dissipated, leaving Fang Zhou completely untouched; Xiao Yan's fist landed on his face without even skewing his nose, and the Exotic Species True Fire couldn't harm his powerful physique.
Xiao Yan showed surprise; she hadn't withheld her strength with this blow, yet Fang Zhou had just taken it on the chin.
The disparity in power had become immense, and Xiao Yan knew this well, but she hadn't expected it to be so vast.
Xiao Yan clenched her teeth, wanting to fight again, but suddenly found her limbs immobilized, held in a firm grip.
"Has the anger dissipated a bit?"
Fang Zhou spoke slowly; Bei Chen was behind, restraining Xiao Yan's limbs. Even if her strength were ten times greater, it would be useless.
Xiao Yan struggled but couldn't break free, glaring at Fang Zhou, she suddenly spat a mouthful of saliva at him.
Fang Zhou easily dodged to the side; though a beauty's saliva might be sweetened, he didn't have the good temper to let it dry on his face.
"Looks like the fire hasn't gone out yet."
Fang Zhou grabbed Xiao Yan's face, saying coldly: "Then I can only help you vent it personally."
"What are you doing?!"
Han Li came over and slapped Fang Zhou's hand away.
Fang Zhou pushed Han Li aside: "Give me space, she can't communicate like this. She needs some tough love to understand human language."
Han Li was shocked: "Don't act recklessly!"
Fang Zhou reassured her: "You don't trust me? I won't go overboard."
Xiao Yan said loudly: "Sister, no need to persuade; let him do whatever he wants."
She now wished Fang Zhou would torture her, so her sister could see the true nature of this vile man.
Fang Zhou rubbed his hands, sneering: "Let's see how long you can keep up the act."
Xiao Yan continued to glare at Fang Zhou: "Go ahead, kill or behead; I won't utter a sound."
...
"Hahahaha... stop it... hahahaha... you bastard..."
Xiao Yan's laughter almost never stopped.
Fang Zhou was behind her, his hands constantly tickling her underarms.
"You're cheating... hahaha... stop it... hahaha..."
She laughed and shouted, tears rolling down her cheeks.
If it were just ordinary tickling, Xiao Yan would certainly not laugh out loud; the Innate Realm's control over the body isn't something ordinary people can compare to.
But Fang Zhou used True Qi to penetrate Xiao Yan's body, intensely stimulating her nerves and acupuncture points. This stimulation was far stronger than simple tickling and was irresistible.
Han Li, watching from the side, was laughing and crying at once; she thought Fang Zhou's methods would be much more outrageous, but didn't expect such childishness.
Though this way was suitable, as no one got hurt while allowing Xiao Yan to calm down...
Calm down? She's obviously more uproarious than before.
Xiao Yan had never suffered such "torture" before, and soon couldn't take it, asking Han Li for help: "Sister... hahaha... make him... haha... stop!!"
Han Li quickly said to Fang Zhou: "Stop, my sister can't take it anymore."
Fang Zhou finally withdrew his hands and said to Xiao Yan: "Calmed down?"
Xiao Yan initially wanted to glare at Fang Zhou again, but seeing him raise his hands, she shivered and dared not stare anymore.
Though Xiao Yan temporarily conceded, it was just temporary; without resolving the issues between them, she'd soon resort to shouting for violence.
After all, canceling the engagement was humiliating, practically a grudge in certain meanings, not solvable with mere apologies.
While tickling, Fang Zhou had already thought of a strategy—time to call in the professional scapegoat.
He said to Xiao Yan, who gritted her teeth and remained silent: "There's indeed a misunderstanding between us. I initially didn't plan to reveal the truth to you, but I can't bear to see you sisters harbor resentment because of it."
Xiao Yan looked unconvinced, her gaze saying "keep spinning your tales!"
Han Li, however, was deeply moved, quietly holding Fang Zhou's hand.
