Chapter 613: The Hospitality of the Host

“Second brother, do you still remember the information we obtained when we attacked the hidden Lei family not long ago…”

Li Xuan glanced greedily at Yu Yiren’s tight, delicate figure. Her alluring curves stirred a desire within him to take her under him and play with her. It was true that they were sworn brothers, but he had a particular interest in this “third sister.” However, he didn’t reveal his thoughts. After hesitating for a moment, he spoke with a tone of amusement.

“You mean the hidden imperial Pujia family might have a lost teleportation array?”

Frowning, Xiao Ding clearly recalled the information they had obtained from the hidden Lei family. Back then, they had led an operation that nearly wiped out the entire hidden Lei family, but they received bad news—the Lei family didn’t have what they were looking for. However, they did obtain another important clue: the hidden imperial Pujia family might possess a lost teleportation array.

“No one can be sure, but how will we ever know unless we give it a try? Better to mistakenly kill ten thousand than let one slip through. We’ve already incurred the displeasure of many Huaxia temples, so we might as well not fear earning even more hatred from them!”

If one had to name the cruelest among the four, even their eldest brother wouldn’t compare to this fourth younger brother. Over time, the number of powerful experts who had perished at Li Xuan’s hands was too many for him to count.

“That may be true, but haven’t you noticed that we seem to be getting manipulated? Whether the information is true or false, the person who deliberately leaked it likely wants to use us to kill someone else. To use us four brothers like that—what nerve!”

A cold gleam flashed in Xiao Ding’s eyes. They were indeed searching for the lost teleportation array, and returning to their own world was their goal. But that didn’t mean they were willing to be manipulated and used as someone else’s tools. Previously, regarding the rumor that the hidden Lei family had a teleportation array, they had clearly been deceived.

Upon hearing this, Yu Yiren and Li Xuan fell silent. They were proud individuals who naturally didn’t want to be used by others.

“Let’s put this matter aside for now. But if the hidden imperial Pujia family truly does have a teleportation array, we must obtain it at all costs. Only then can we escape this wretched place!”

Finally, Xiao Ding spoke decisively. Regardless of whether someone was trying to manipulate them, their current diminished strength made it unwise to provoke other hidden families. If they truly enraged the guardians of the temples, they would only end up fleeing in disgrace.

“Oh, by the way, I heard that the Tian Alliance confronted the Qianhuang Hall recently. Those weaklings seem no match for the Tian Alliance. That powerful old man might manage to extract some information about us from the mouths of the Qianhuang Hall members.”

After a while, Li Xuan recalled a distress signal he had received a few days ago. His eyes flickered with a glimmer of thought. The existence of the Tian Alliance was no stranger to the three of them—not because of the overall strength of the alliance, but due to a certain individual within it whom they deeply feared.

“What can they do with that information? I don’t believe a single Tian Alliance can stir up much trouble. Although that person is indeed formidable, in a one-on-one fight, I believe I could defeat him. And our eldest brother’s strength is even greater than mine!”

Upon hearing the mention of the Tian Alliance, Xiao Ding’s expression shifted slightly. They hadn’t expected that the Tian Alliance, which had been lying low for so long, had grown this strong.

Because they had gravely wounded the hidden Situ family in the past, the Tian Alliance could only be their enemy. However, they didn’t mind this, as apart from that old man, the Tian Alliance had no other strength that they would take seriously.

“Then let’s wait for the Ancient Martial Arts Tournament. By then, everyone’s attention will be diverted!”

Since there was no immediate threat, they naturally wouldn’t be foolish enough to strike first. As for the life or death of the Qianhuang Hall, it had nothing to do with them. Even if the Tian Alliance managed to obtain their information and discover their location, they probably wouldn’t dare to come here anyway.

The three exchanged glances, a faint smile appearing on each of their faces. Then, their figures transformed into three streaks of light, vanishing into the thick mist, as if no one had ever been there…

Inside the Purple Maple Apartment, Xiao Yufan looked at the many outstanding women around him, his face wearing a very contented smile. In just two days, Hu Yingluo had completely integrated into this big family, while the Hu family and the hidden Hong family had yet to appear.

“Little pervert, don’t you find Yingluo’s charm irresistible? You haven’t taken her yet!”

Nie Shiyun quietly stayed by Xiao Yufan’s side, her exquisitely beautiful face carrying a mature aura. Xiao Yufan secretly sighed, grateful that he had plucked this blooming flower before someone else could, or it would have been a waste of beauty.

“Although Yingluo and I understand each other’s feelings, we haven’t openly acknowledged them. Moreover, if we truly took that step, it would mean a lifelong commitment, and that promise carries great weight!”

He gently took her cold hand, his eyes curving into a charming and leisurely arc. He longed to possess this woman, but he also knew that if they truly took that step, it would mean a lifetime of protection and responsibility. Therefore, he couldn’t rush things.

“It seems the little pervert still has some principles after all!” Nie Shiyun smiled sweetly, casually tucking her disheveled long hair behind her ear, captivating his gaze. Especially when looking down from the loose neckline of her clothes, a delightful sight unfolded.

“Little pervert, if you keep staring at me so openly, I’ll have the other sisters teach you a lesson later!”

Even though she had been intimate with Xiao Yufan before, Nie Shiyun still couldn’t quite handle his bold gaze. Of course, this kind of threat only made him even more smug…

“Oh? How exactly will Shiyun have them teach me a lesson? Perhaps on the bed?”

Seeing Nie Shiyun’s blushing face, Xiao Yufan slowly leaned in, finding this feeling quite pleasant. Hearing his words, Nie Shiyun gave him a coquettish glare.

Just at that moment, Xiao Yufan suddenly heard a voice from outside. The smile on his face, which had been present moments ago, immediately turned strange. He looked back at Yingluo, who also wore a faint expression of displeasure.

It seemed that the Hong family’s guy was indeed persistent. However, since he had come here, Xiao Yufan naturally intended to play the role of a gracious host. If he acted too stingily, wouldn’t he tarnish his reputation? After all, in the north, he had never feared anyone…
