Xun Er and Nalan Yanran's Duel

"Uncle Zhang, once the shop is rented, move over there and live there. Don't stay on this side anymore."

Ye Hao instructed him as they walked.

Zhang San nodded from time to time, his eyes full of gratification whenever he looked at Ye Hao.

The two were talking.

When suddenly, a White Clad Beauty slammed into Ye Hao's arms.

She held him tightly.

Her tearful voice, brimming with overwhelming joy, rang beside Ye Hao and Zhang San's ears.

"Hao Gege! I finally found you! I finally found you!"

Ye Hao: "???"

Zhang San: "!!"

Nalan Yanran clung tightly to Ye Hao and forcefully sniffed with her pert nose.

Mm!

It was the scent from her memories.

A satisfied smile appeared on her face as she vigorously rubbed her head against Ye Hao's chest.

Then, reluctantly, she raised her head.

A mist of tears welled in her eyes.

"Hao Gege, so you were in Wu Tan City all along. Do you know how hard I've been searching for you?"

Searching for me?

Ye Hao was baffled by her behavior. He pushed Nalan Yanran away and studied her carefully.

She was pretty enough!

But he had definitely never seen her before. He did not know her at all!

Besides... hugging was one thing!

But sniffing and rubbing against him too? What was that supposed to mean?

Was she inhaling him into her lungs?

"Miss, have you mistaken me for someone else?" Ye Hao asked with a smile.

Nalan Yanran said anxiously, "Hao Gege, it's me! Have you forgotten?"

"What good brother, bad brother? Miss, I admit I am somewhat handsome, but... you can't take advantage of me in public just because of that."

As he spoke, Ye Hao pointed at Ge Ye hurrying over from behind.

"Look, even your father is panicking. If you hug me any longer, I'm afraid he'll rush over and beat me up."

Ye Hao's words cut into Nalan Yanran's heart like a knife.

Tears spilled from her eyes.

"Hao Gege, are you still blaming me? Blaming me for being young and ignorant back then? I... I've changed, I..."

"Stop, stop. I really don't know you. I'm just a blacksmith."

Ye Hao interrupted Nalan Yanran.

He could not figure out what this girl was after!

What if this was a honey trap?

His current strength was indeed among the very best in Wu Tan City.

But in the Jia Ma Empire, it was nothing special.

For now, he should keep a low profile and develop cautiously.

He did not want to die from overconfidence like he had in the simulation.

Nalan Yanran wiped her tears and examined Ye Hao carefully. His expression was serious, and he did not seem to be acting.

Only then did she remember!

Perhaps he had not yet recalled what happened in his previous life.

So...

"Your name is Ye Hao, right?" Nalan Yanran asked.

Ye Hao shook his head with a straight face.

"See? You really have the wrong person. My name is Hao Shuai. You can call me Handsome Guy."

Zhang San: "0.0"

"No, impossible! Did you just make up that name?!"

Nalan Yanran did not believe him.

He looked exactly like the Ye Hao in her memories.

Ye Hao said, "If you don't believe me, ask Uncle Zhang."

"Huh? Uh, yes, yes, yes. His name really isn't Ye Hao. Ever since we were young, we've called him..."

Zhang San froze for a moment before hurriedly speaking.

Halfway through, he awkwardly realized that he had forgotten the name Ye Hao had casually made up just now.

Seeing this, Ye Hao quickly added, "Handsome Guy."

"Yes, yes, yes, Handsome Guy." Zhang San wiped the sweat from his forehead.

If I had committed some sin, don't punish me like this!

He had lived for most of his life and had never lied before!

The first time he lied, he had nearly exposed himself.

Ye Hao spread his hands. "You heard him. I didn't lie to you, did I?"

Nalan Yanran still did not believe him.

She was just about to say something.

When suddenly!

Another clear voice, as crisp as a lark's song, rang out.

It was filled with boundless delight.

"Hao Gege! You're actually in Wu Tan City!!"

Ye Hao: "??"

"!!"

Nalan Yanran frowned and turned to look!

She saw an exceptionally beautiful girl in a light purple dress running toward them with a radiant smile.

Her sixth sense made Nalan Yanran feel a hint of danger.

Instinctively, she took a step sideways.

She blocked the girl from Ye Hao.

Not allowing her to approach!

But as the girl drew nearer and her features became clearer.

Nalan Yanran's pupils abruptly widened!

"It's you!!"

The Purple Skirt Girl ignored her, darted past her, rushed behind her, and threw her arms around Ye Hao as well!

This completely stunned Ye Hao!

Why was everyone hugging him?

Could the Explosive Good Luck from the system have come into the real world?!

Feeling the soft, delicate body in his arms.

Ye Hao felt as though he had seen this girl somewhere before!

At the street corner.

Xiao Yan watched the girl he liked embrace a plainly dressed man who was not even as handsome as himself. It felt as if countless arrows had pierced through his heart at that very moment!

The pain was so intense that he could barely breathe!

Most hateful of all!

That guy was completely unmoved by Xun Er throwing herself at him!

He did not even give her the response she deserved!!

Xiao Yan clenched his fists in envy and gritted his teeth!

He wished he could take that man's place!

Xun Er called sweetly, "Hao Gege, I..."

Before she could finish.

Clang!

Whoosh!

A longsword flashing with cold light suddenly left its sheath.

Then it slashed fiercely at Xun Er's head!

Xun Er sensed it and abruptly turned around. Golden flames flickered in her beautiful eyes.

Her aura suddenly surged to that of a Dou Master.

Then she pivoted on her feet and lightly raised her jade-like hand, instantly knocking the sword from Nalan Yanran's grasp.

She then turned her palm into a claw and seized Nalan Yanran by her fair neck.

"I have no grudge against you. Why did you try to kill me the moment you attacked?!"

Xun Er demanded coldly.

Nalan Yanran sneered. "Cough, cough... You... you're a bad woman!!"

Ge Ye ran over. "Miss, please show mercy!"

Xun Er said, "Is this how your Misty Cloud Sect teaches its disciples?"

Ge Ye broke out in a cold sweat.

She had recognized their identities at a glance, and she could raise her strength from a Dou Zhe to a Dou Master in an instant. She was definitely no ordinary person.

"Miss, Yan Ran mistook someone for someone else. She didn't do it on purpose..."

Ge Ye hurriedly explained.

But Nalan Yanran said, "I didn't mistake anyone! I'd recognize her even if she turned to ashes!!"

Ge Ye wanted to curse!

What was wrong with lowering your head when you were under someone else's roof?!

If you wanted to curse, go back to the Misty Cloud Sect and curse however you pleased!

No one would stop you there!

Killing intent rose in Xun Er's eyes!

"You're courting death!!"

Ge Ye thought of something and hurriedly said, "Miss, that young man has already run off. He's nowhere to be seen."

Xun Er quickly turned around to look!

Sure enough, Ye Hao was nowhere in sight.

Xun Er stamped her foot.

"Damn it! Just wait. If I can't find Hao Gege, I won't let you off!"

After throwing down those words, Xun Er released Nalan Yanran and chased down the street!

Ge Ye let out a breath of relief.

If Nalan Yanran died in Wu Tan City.

Then he would not need to return either!

"Yan Ran, are you all right?" Ge Ye asked with concern.

"Quick, help me chase after Hao Gege, cough, cough, cough... That bad woman definitely wants to kill him!"

Nalan Yanran shook her head and spoke urgently.

"Yan Ran, I don't think that woman bears that young man any ill will."

"That woman is very good at pretending. Don't let her fool you. If you don't go now, once we return to the Misty Cloud Sect, I'll tell Teacher that you stood by and watched me die!!"

"You... I... sigh, fine, fine, fine. This old man will go at once."

Ge Ye could only helplessly chase after them.
