This girl appeared to be about seventeen or eighteen years old. Her brows were like painted art, delicate and light, giving off an air of intimacy like the girl next door.
"It's just, little brother, your cultivation realm is indeed a bit low.
Why did the adults in your family agree to let you take this assessment?"
The girl fixed her beautiful eyes on Ye Yunfei, her face full of curiosity.
"Do you know how dangerous it was just now? Those Earth Corpse Monkeys eat people.
If we hadn't arrived in time to act, you probably would have already... ahem, anyway, it was incredibly dangerous."
The girl earnestly admonished Ye Yunfei.
"Cough..."
Ye Yunfei found himself at a loss for words, feeling somewhat speechless.
But facing this naive girl, one simply couldn't muster any anger.
"Boss's skill at playing the pig to eat the tiger is truly first-rate in the world!
I wonder what this girl would think if she knew the boss once wiped out dozens of Earth Corpse Monkeys in seconds."
Wu Heishan watched from the side, unable to help but curl his lips.
"Xiao Hui, why bother paying attention to these two pieces of trash?
This time, they were just lucky, happening to run into us, or else they would have been eaten by those Earth Corpse Monkeys.
Forget it, these insignificant nobodies aren't worth our attention. Let them survive or perish on their own.
We need to hurry. We disciples from the major factions are about to join forces to attack that Earth Corpse Monkey lair. That's what really matters."
At this moment, a man in brocade robes spoke up.
His gaze towards Ye Yunfei and Wu Heishan was filled with extreme disdain, like a divine dragon in the sky looking down upon two ants on the ground.
This brocade-robed man was at the Saint Realm Late Stage.
Moreover, the spiritual pressure radiating from him was sharp and oppressive. His combat prowess was clearly extraordinary.
Surrounding this brocade-robed man were over a dozen other young men and women, each of them imposing and steady in their presence.
However, these young men and women all showed an air of ingratiation when looking at the brocade-robed man.
This group obviously considered the brocade-robed man as their leader!
"That's right, Xiao Hui, let's go.
Why bother with these two pieces of trash?"
The other men and women also chimed in one after another.
"Little brother, where are your other teammates?
Right now, all the assessment takers have started forming teams and pairing up to hunt demonic beasts. Why are you two operating alone?"
However, Xiao Hui seemed quite concerned about Ye Yunfei and pressed him further.
She seemed like a warm-hearted big sister wanting to help a lost little boy, overflowing with kindness and appearing very enthusiastic.
"Why is Boss's ability to attract women so damn good?
I can't help but admire it.
It's like any beautiful girl will definitely be interested in Boss!"
Watching from the side, Wu Heishan was simply in awe.
As for Ye Yunfei himself, being questioned left and right by Xiao Hui, he found himself torn between laughter and tears.
If he had known this would happen, he would have disguised himself as a middle-aged uncle.
"There's only two of us. We don't have any other teammates."
Ye Yunfei answered somewhat irritably.
"Ah!
How can that be!
That's way too dangerous!
A Mid Stage Profound Realm and a Saint Realm Initial Stage combination is far too weak.
Especially since the place we're at now is near a large Earth Corpse Monkey lair. Earth Corpse Monkeys can appear at any moment.
Little brother, you'll die!
Alright, from now on, you two, follow us."
After hearing Ye Yunfei's words, Xiao Hui was startled, then made her proposal.
"Xiao Hui!
Stop fooling around!"
The brocade-robed man's eyes flashed with anger.
"Ants! Trash! You better get lost as far away from me as you can right now. Don't let me see you and irritate me!"
The brocade-robed man glared at Ye Yunfei with a look of disgust.
A violent pressure of spiritual power crushed towards Ye Yunfei and Wu Heishan.
"Senior Brother Fang, stop! You're not allowed to treat them like that!
They'll follow me and my brother."
Xiao Hui's lithe figure moved, placing herself in front of Ye Yunfei and Wu Heishan. She looked directly at the brocade-robed man.
"Xiao Hui, you...!"
That Senior Brother Fang's expression fluctuated between shades of dark and light, a flicker of gloom flashing in his eyes.
However, soon, a forced ingratiating smile appeared on his face as he suppressed his fury.
"Xiao Hui, you're far too willful.
Fine, Xiao Hui, since you're so kind-hearted and want to bring these two ant-like fellows along, have it your way.
However, we are about to rush to attack that Earth Corpse Monkey lair. It's an extremely dangerous endeavor.
By bringing these two minor characters with you, you might as well be sending them to their deaths.
But Xiao Hui, anything you like doing, I will certainly support.
I've said it before; I will do everything I can to make Xiao Hui feel happy.
Alright, let's move!"
Senior Brother Fang waved his hand decisively.
The depths of his gaze as he looked at Xiao Hui concealed a certain primal desire. Anyone could see that he was interested in Xiao Hui.
At Senior Brother Fang's order, this group of young men and women, encircling him like stars around the moon, quickly headed towards the direction of the Earth Corpse Monkey lair.
"Little brother, let's go too."
Xiao Hui said to Ye Yunfei.
"Alright."
Ye Yunfei thought for a moment, then nodded.
This group was clearly disciples from some major sect or clan in the Eastern Region, heading to participate in the assault on the Earth Corpse Monkey lair.
Being able to follow them was exactly what Ye Yunfei desired.
"Oh right, little brother, what's your name?
I'm Yuan Xiaohui. This is my brother, he's called Yuan Dayong."
Like a considerate big sister, Xiaohui walked beside Ye Yunfei and asked.
"Hey, hey there, little fellow," the burly man greeted Ye Yunfei.
This Yuan Dayong possessed Mid Stage Saint Realm strength.
Xiao Hui also had Mid Stage Saint Realm strength.
"My name is Xiao Tianfei."
Ye Yunfei casually made up a name.
These two siblings were simply too enthusiastic; Ye Yunfei had no choice but to humor them.
As for Wu Heishan, he had a somewhat neglected feel. Xiao Hui didn't pay much attention to him at all.
"When will I ever be able to attract beautiful women and be the center of attention everywhere I go, just like Boss?"
Trailing behind Ye Yunfei, Wu Heishan watched the pure and lovely Xiao Hui walking and chatting cheerfully beside Ye Yunfei, feeling so envious it was almost painful.
Ahead.
Senior Brother Fang led the group of over a dozen young men and women, advancing swiftly.
However, Senior Brother Fang's Soul Power continuously monitored Xiao Hui behind them.
The dozen or so young men and women, aware of Senior Brother Fang's intentions, also turned their heads to glance back from time to time.
"Hmph!
Senior Brother Fang, Xiao Hui seems quite enthusiastic towards that trash at only Mid Stage Profound Realm."
A sallow-faced young man in a green robe whispered to Senior Brother Fang.
"It's fine.
Just a negligible ant of a minor character. Later, I'll find an opportunity, when Xiao Hui isn't paying attention, and kill him with a single palm strike.
Xiao Hui can only belong to me!"
Senior Brother Fang said, appearing extremely confident.
"By the way.
Xiao Hui has the True Phoenix Physique.
Legend says that if a man can obtain the first time of a woman with the True Phoenix Physique, he receives immense nourishment. It can cleanse the marrow and temper the body, enhance innate talent, boost cultivation, the benefits are endless.
He might even have a chance to awaken the bloodline inheritance of the True Phoenix race.
Is that true?"
A short and chubby man whispered.
"Of course it's true.
If Senior Brother Fang can obtain Xiao Hui, then Senior Brother Fang's martial arts talent is bound to undergo a qualitative leap.
Tsk tsk, I truly can't imagine just how monstrous Senior Brother Fang will become at that time."
The young man in the green robe said enviously.
"Oh?
Xiao Hui actually has the True Phoenix Physique?"
Ye Yunfei's Soul Power was incredibly potent. He clearly overheard the hushed conversation of Senior Brother Fang and the others, feeling somewhat surprised.
"It really is the True Phoenix Physique!"
Ye Yunfei quietly sensed Xiao Hui's bloodline, noting this fact in his mind.
