Super Soldier in the City-Chapter 1227 - 1275: No Dating Boys

"Elder Murong." Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan relaxed at once when they saw that the person was Murong Yuanqing.

Murong Yuanqing nodded and said, "I hope I didn’t frighten you just now?"

Li Yifei smiled slightly and said, "I understand that Elder Murong doesn’t want them to know about our relationship."

Murong Yuanqing smiled and said, "You are indeed smart. I noticed you didn’t bring anything out. Does that mean you didn’t go in?"

Li Yifei nodded and recounted the situation inside, then added, "Elder Murong, did you not follow us in?"

A look of admiration appeared on Murong Yuanqing’s face as he said, "That Great Formation is truly profound. The two of us were also at a loss. It would be wonderful if such a Formation Method could be passed down. It’s a pity such a valuable art has been lost."

Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan had also witnessed the intricacy of the Great Formation and felt the same deep regret. If someone were versed in such a Formation Method, it would indeed be as valuable as a mighty army.

Murong Yuanqing then regained his composure and said, "Your approach was good, but can you still re-enter?"

Li Yifei, unsure, said, "I left traces inside and memorized most of the pathways. However, whether I can truly re-enter, I really do not have any certainty. I don’t know if the Formation will change."

"Hmm, there’s no rush. If you can go in, then go in. If not, we’ll follow them in later."

At this time, Xu Shanshan interjected and asked, "Elder Murong, who won the fight just now?"

Murong Yuanqing shook his head and said, "It’s hard to say who won, but I really didn’t expect that person to have reached such a level, even Brother Zhao was only able to fight him to a draw?"

"Who?" Li Yifei asked with confusion.

"My... errant disciple."

"Ah, you mean Murong Zheng?" Li Yifei exclaimed in a low voice.

"Correct, it is indeed him. Although he was masked, and even though his opponent was Brother Zhao, I’m all too familiar with his martial skills; it was undoubtedly him."

Li Yifei hesitated for a moment before asking, "Elder Murong, haven’t you thought about capturing him?"

"It’s not that I don’t want to capture him, but rather I can’t. My opponent is not weaker than me. Unless they are willing to fight to the death with us, neither of us can capture the other. Moreover, the two of them quickly entered the Great Formation, making it impossible for us to capture them."

Li Yifei’s eyes narrowed as he said, "If that person is Murong Zheng, then I suspect he is very likely the leader of the Noah’s Ark Organization."

Murong Yuanqing spoke slowly, "That is highly possible. Although that errant disciple’s character is poor, he is very ambitious and intelligent. If he sets his mind on doing something, he indeed has a great ability to accomplish it. In this respect, I am far inferior to him."

Xu Shanshan chimed in again, "Elder Murong, are you saying that your disciple is even more powerful than you?"

Murong Yuanqing smiled slightly and said, "His martial skills might not necessarily surpass mine, but they are almost the same. He not only learned all of my skills, but he also managed to absorb knowledge from various sources and innovate on his own. In terms of martial capability alone, he certainly qualifies as a grandmaster capable of founding his own school. It’s just unfortunate his ambitions... sigh, it’s truly regrettable."

After a pause, Murong Yuanqing then said to Li Yifei, "Yifei, let’s put aside the task I had given you before. With his current skills, if he wishes to take your life, you lack the ability to protect yourself."

Li Yifei immediately replied, "I understand that, but I won’t confront him head-on. Moreover, right now they do not intend to be my enemies. I think it’s better this way: I will find an opportunity to deal with him later, of course, after I become stronger. Plus, I still have the phrase you taught me."

"Well, if that’s what you think, then follow your path. Let things take their course; sometimes, being too forceful can backfire. Let’s leave it at that. If you plan to come here again, let me know in advance, and I will come to assist you."

Having said that, Murong Yuanqing floated away and soon disappeared into the vast snowy mountains.

Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan crawled into the tent, both sighing incessantly. The world truly had too many capable individuals. With their strength, they were indeed not invincible. If they wanted to not be manipulated by others in the future, they would need to become even stronger.

Three days later, Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan returned to Mile City. This time, aside from the period in the cave on Mount Kunlun where they didn’t contact anyone, they kept in touch with home all the other times. Therefore, their family wasn’t worried, but having been away for over ten days, the warmth of home felt particularly comforting upon their return.

A brief separation is better than a wedding night. Although they could only be intimate with Li Yifei once a week, everyone saw him every day, and there were sometimes small displays of affection. So, even if they couldn’t spend the nights together, they didn’t feel a special longing for him on a regular basis. But after this separation, to say they didn’t miss him would be a lie.

Moreover, everyone knew that when Li Yifei returned from such long trips, things tended to get wild, but no one minded such wildness. On normal days, there were already many people around; having a few more now didn’t make much of a difference. The main concern was that everyone was afraid Li Yifei’s body couldn’t handle it, which is why they had decided on such an arrangement.

"Master, Brother Li, you’re back!" Jiang Ningxiang came back a bit late today and heard about Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan’s return as she arrived at Li Yifei’s villa, her little face excitingly flushed.

Li Yifei chuckled: "Yes, we’re back. Why did you return so late?"

Xu Yingying smiled and said, "With you two not home, Ningxiang hasn’t been staying at home either these past days, she’s been at school." fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

Jiang Ningxiang quickly said: "Master, although I haven’t been home, I practiced martial arts at school too, and I’ve made progress."

Xu Shanshan was in a good mood and replied: "That’s great. Later, Master will check on your progress, and like I told you before, you don’t have to be so intentional about it, participating in some school activities is also a good thing."

Jiang Ningxiang immediately nodded vigorously: "Yes, but now that Master and Brother Li have returned, I will stay at home. I need to learn martial arts too."

Xiao Ling’er laughed: "Little Ningxiang spent so many days at school, surely you didn’t get yourself a boyfriend there?"

Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan immediately looked nervously at Jiang Ningxiang.

Jiang Ningxiang’s face turned red, and she waved her hands, saying: "No, there were people chasing me, but I didn’t agree."

Xu Yingying asked: "Why? No one has caught your eye?"

Jiang Ningxiang said earnestly: "I don’t want a boyfriend. I want to study hard and practice diligently so I can contribute to the Li family in the future."

Lin Qiong chimed in: "That doesn’t conflict with having a boyfriend. If you find someone you like, there’s no harm in dating."

"No way!" Xu Shanshan and Li Yifei said simultaneously.

Everyone’s gaze instantly turned towards Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan, and the looks they directed at Li Yifei were filled with a strange sentiment.

Xu Shanshan immediately said: "Ningxiang, this time, your sister-in-law and I met some experts and gained a new understanding of Innate Vital Energy. Your Innate Vital Energy hasn’t formed yet. If you lose your chastity, then your Innate Vital Energy will never form, so you can’t have a boyfriend now."

Jiang Ningxiang blushed even more and stammered: "No, I really don’t have a boyfriend. I definitely won’t... I won’t..."

Xu Shanshan said sternly: "Ningxiang, I’m not trying to meddle in your personal life, but this matter is indeed of great importance. Once your Innate Vital Energy has formed, then even if you have a few boyfriends, I won’t interfere."

"Master..." Jiang Ningxiang felt even more embarrassed but still bit her lip and said, "I absolutely won’t let Master down."

Hearing the conversation between the two, the peculiar gazes directed at Li Yifei dissipated. Just a moment ago, they really thought Li Yifei had some ulterior motive toward Jiang Ningxiang.
