Chapter 1543: Greenwave Han Mansion, Han Xue Nai
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
This was also a habit of Han Jin Nian.
Usually, he would first treat those women he took a liking to politely, only when he realized the method would not work then he would suddenly turn hostile and force the women to submit to him.
Since the beginning until now, he had never failed before.
“Who are you?” At this moment, three short figures immediately stood in front of Han Jin Nian in unison, blocking his view.
It was a little boy and two little girls. They were staring at Han Jin Nian guardedly.
When Han Jin Nian saw the three little kids were obstructing his view of the beauty, his expression turned grave immediately. However, he remembered he needed to maintain a good image in front of the woman, in just an instant, a smile appeared on his face again. “I’m Han Jin Nian from the Greenwave Han Mansion.”
At this moment, the lackey behind Han Jin Nian chimed in, “Hurmph! My Young Master is the favorite grandson of the Supreme Elder of Greenwave Han Mansion.”
Meanwhile, a hint of pity could be seen in the eyes of the three middle-aged men who were dressed in uniforms when they looked at the beautiful pregnant woman. They could see Han Jin Nian had already taken a liking to this woman.
As far as they knew, none of the women whom Han Jin Nian took a liking to had managed to escape him. However, there was nothing they could do even though they frowned upon it.
Who asked Han Jin Nian to be the grandson of the only Supreme Elder in their Greenwave Han Mansion?
Besides, like the lackey next to Han Jin Nian had said, he was also the favorite grandson of the Supreme Elder of the Greenwave Han Mansion.
That Supreme Elder of the Greenwave Han Mansion had an extraordinary position in the Greenwave Han Mansion. Even the current Master of the Greenwave Han Mansion needed to politely address him as uncle.
“So you’re that great womanizer, Han Jin Nian, that Sister Xue Nai spoke of.” A fair and delicate golden-clad little girl nodded her head in realization.
The moment the lackey behind Han Jin Nian heard the little girl’s words, horror dawned on him as chills ran down his spine.
What did the little girl say?
Sister Xue Nai?
Did she mean the Eldest Miss who was loved by everyone in the Greenwave Han Mansion? That Little Devil who could elicit a change in expression from everyone in the Greenwave Han Mansion the moment her name was mentioned?
“You know Xue Nai?” When Han Jin Nian heard the little girl’s words, he could not help but frown too. A hint of lingering fear flashed in his eyes.
In the Greenwave Han Mansion, there were only a few people he was afraid of.
As luck would have it, that Eldest Miss was one of them.
In the past, he had been teased by that Eldest Miss a lot.
Meanwhile, Han Jin Nian’s face turned a little pale. Just because the word ‘Great womanizer’ had been spoken so loudly by that little girl, his image had been completely destroyed in front of that beauty.
Whoos.h.!.+
At this moment, a breeze blew past all of them, and a green figure appeared suddenly. It was an old woman dressed in green.
As she stood there, it seemed as though she was blending in with the background.
“Lord Qing Nu.” The moment the three middle-aged men in uniforms saw the old woman, they bowed respectfully and did not dare to slack at all.
The green-clad old woman was Qing Nu who used to follow Han Xue Nai previously. She glanced indifferently at the three middle-aged men and said, “They are friends of Eldest Miss. All of you can retreat now.”
“Alright.” The moment the three middle-aged men heard her words, they instantly retreated. At the same time, they sighed in relief inwardly. They could finally get away from that dandy good-for-nothing rich kid.
After asking the three men to retreat, Qing Nu glanced indifferently at Han Jin Nian and greeted him out of formality, “Young Master Jin Nian.”
“Qing Nu, are they really Xue Nai’s friends?” Han Jin Nian asked with a frown.
“Why? Do you want to ask Young Miss personally, Young Master Jin Nian?” There was a hint of mockery in Qing Nu’s tone. It seemed like she did not really respect Han Jin Nian this Young Master.
“No, there’s no need for that.” Han Jin Nian’s eyes gleamed coldly as he shook his head. Unless it was necessary, he was unwilling to meet that Little Devil.
Whoos.h.!.+
At this moment, Qing Nu waved her big hand and the sky trembled immediately, a profound energy flashed past them.
In the next instant, whether it was Qing Nu, the extremely beautiful woman, the two little girls or the little boy, all of them had vanished without a trace. Only Han Jin Nian and his lackey were left on the scene.
“Young Master, let’s go back,” the lackey standing at the side suggested when he sensed a drop in Han Jin Nian’s mood.
“Return and investigate the origins of those few people, especially that woman! I must have her!” Now that there was n.o.body else on the scene, Han Jin Nian no longer bothered with putting on a facade. Hints of l.u.s.t instantly rose in his eyes.
“Young Master, maybe we should just let it go? Lord Qing Nu has also said that she’s Young Miss Xue Nai’s friend. If you touch her, I’m afraid Young Miss Xue Nai won’t just let the matter go.” The lackey seemed to be particularly afraid of Young Miss Xue Nai. Every time he mentioned her, his body would tremble for no reason.
“Hurmph! So what if she doesn’t want to let the matter go? Don’t tell me she’s going to kill me? Put aside the fact that she might not even have the ability to do that, even if she has, I don’t believe she’ll kill me over an outsider!” Han Jin Nian snorted coldly in disdain.
“Even so, it’s not easy to deal with Young Miss Xue Nai.” The lackey smiled wryly.
“You don’t have to say anything… No matter what, I must get my hands on that woman! If I can get her, I don’t mind shortening my life span by a few years, let alone dealing with the painless teasing from the Little Devil!” With a raise of his hand, Han Jin Nian stopped his lackey from continuing.
When the lackey heard this, he no longer said anything. He knew once his young master made up his mind, there was no changing it at all.
On the other hand, the four travel-weary people were brought into the mountain hidden by the clouds.
There was a vast land with buildings on it, like a little kingdom behind the clouds.
This was the Greenwave Han Mansion.
The four travel-weary people were none other than Li Fei, Little Black, Little White, and Little Gold who had traveled all the way here from Half Moon Island.
After leaving Half Moon Island, Li Fei was worried about Ke’er’s safety. However, she was weak now, and she knew if she went back, she would only be digging a grave for herself. If she was alone, she would not have left Ke’er even if she died.
However, right now, she was not alone.
She was carrying a child in her belly. It was the child of the man she loved and her.
Due to this reason, she acceded to Little Black, Little White, and Little Gold’s decision to return to the Dao Martial Saint Land and to the Greenwave Han Mansion to ask for help.
Their journey here was not easy. It had taken them almost an entire year before they finally arrived at their destination.
Soon after, Li Fei and the others met Han Xue Nai. When Han Xue Nai saw Li Fei, her eyes lit up. She held her hands enthusiastically and greeted her, “Sister Fei’er! What brought you here?”
“Xue Nai, you’ve changed a lot!” Li Fei was shocked when she saw Han Xue Nai again.
After Han Xue Nai made a breakthrough to the Mortal Shedding Stage, her appearance was no longer bounded by her cultivation method. That was why she began to mature from a young girl to a beautiful woman.
In terms of beauty, she was in no way inferior to Li Fei.
“Hehe…” Han Xue Nai chuckled before glancing behind Li Fei. She looked at Little Gold, Little Black, and Little White as she asked, “Why are there only four of you? Where’s Sister Ke’er?”
Li Fei sighed. The moment she heard Han Xue Nai mentioning Ke’er, a worried expression appeared on her face immediately.
During the entire journey here, the one she was most worried about was Ke’er.
“Why? What happened?” Han Xue Nai’s expression changed a little. She could tell that something was not right.
“Sister Xue Nai, Half Moon Island…” Little Gold began to speak furiously. She recounted what had happened after Di Jue, the Five-clawed Golden Dragon, came to Half Moon Island. In the end, she even added dejectedly, “Right now, we don’t even know if Sister Ke’er and the others are still alive or not. Sister Xue Nai, you must save them!”
“Almost a year ago?” Han Xue Nai’s heart felt a little heavy. It had been almost a year since that incident happened, it was unknown if the remaining people were alive or not.
Moreover, when she heard Di Jue the Five-clawed Golden Dragon was the culprit, a wave of helplessness washed over her.
As the Eldest Miss of Greenwave Han Mansion, she, naturally, had heard of Di Jue before. She knew he was one of the only two Five-clawed Golden Dragons left in the dragon clan. Moreover, he was so powerful that not many people from the Greenwave Han Mansion could compare to him.
It was not too bad if it was just Di Jue alone. However, the problem was the dragon clan supporting him from the back. There were many others who were stronger than Di Jue in the dragon clan.
“Sister Fei’er, just take care of your baby and don’t worry. Just leave this matter to us… All of you have been traveling for so long, Qing Nu will lead you all to a place to rest first,” Han Xue Nai told Li Fei as she looked at Qing Nu.
Without waiting for Han Xue Nai’s order, Qing Nu had already waved her hand and brought Li Fei and the three little fellows away. Li Fei did not even have time to respond to Han Xue Nai.
“Di Jue, Five-clawed Golden Dragon, dragon clan… I think even Father will find it hard to intervene in this matter. I can only look for Master then. Hopefully, she’s not in closed-door cultivation now,” Han Xue Nai muttered to herself. When she reached the end of her sentence, her heart clenched for a moment.
“However, even if Master is in closed-door cultivation, I still have to alert her… This matter concerns Sister Ke’er so nothing can happen! I’ve already lost Brother Ling Tian. No matter what, I can’t lose Sister Ke’er too… Otherwise, how am I going to face Brother Ling Tian when I see him in the future?” Based on Han Xue Nai’s words, it seemed as though she was certain Duan Ling Tian was still alive. The reason she was so certain was due to her Master as well.
The moment she thought of this, she left the s.p.a.cious mansion and soared up into the sky, heading to the depth of the mountain range north of the Greenwave Han Mansion.
That was her master’s usual cultivation place.
