The Schemes of Three Women Combined = Destruction

This kind of close-fitting Soft Armor might be quite precious to others, but still obtainable. Yet for Xiao Yi Xian, who came from a poor background, if she had never met Gu Fengchen, she might never have acquired one in her lifetime.

She knew it herself. Aside from her medical skills, the only thing she had to offer was her beauty.

But beauty was useless if you kept yourself pure and did not cash it in.

Seeing Gu Feng so generously give her a piece of close-fitting Soft Armor, she was truly moved.

From childhood until now, Gu Feng had treated her the best.

She could tell that many people who showed interest in her had ulterior motives.

Not only had Gu Feng allowed her to remain safely at the Myriad Medicine Pavilion, he had also solved the problem with her constitution and cared for her so much. Xiao Yi Xian's eyes grew slightly moist.

"Boss lady, why are you crying? Hahaha, I can't use this Soft Armor anyway. Just take it, hahaha." Gu Fengchen casually patted Xiao Yi Xian on the head.

This time, Xiao Yi Xian did not refute his way of addressing her as boss lady.

A barely audible "Mm" escaped her throat, and the last trace of wariness she held toward Gu Fengchen seemed to vanish into thin air.

However, the warm atmosphere did not last long before a Myriad Medicine Pavilion clerk came to inform Gu Fengchen that Great Princess Yaoye had arrived.

Yaoye?

Hadn't she come last month?

Why had she come again today?

Moreover, Yaoye seemed to have come specifically to see Gu Fengchen this time. She had brought only Elder Jia with her, and even rode in an ordinary carriage.

"The Great Princess is here? Let's go, we'll greet her together!" This time, rather than taking the initiative to avoid Great Princess Yaoye as she had before, Xiao Yi Xian took Gu Fengchen's hand and headed with him toward the Myriad Medicine Pavilion's main hall.

After spending this period of time together, their relationship seemed to have taken another step forward.

Gu Fengchen followed Xiao Yi Xian toward the hall.

When Xiao Yi Xian and Gu Fengchen appeared together, Yaoye's gaze lingered on Gu Fengchen for only a moment before shifting to Xiao Yi Xian. Her delicate brows rose slightly.

Xiao Yi Xian's appearance was completely different in style from Yaoye's.

Yaoye was clearly a noble young lady, carrying the faint air of someone in authority, while Xiao Yi Xian possessed a gentle warmth that soothed the heart, with the ethereal tenderness of a fairy.

Upon seeing Xiao Yi Xian, Yaoye actually took the initiative to extend her hand and introduce herself. "My name is Yaoye. I'm Gu Feng's friend. May I ask how I should address you?"

"Xiao Yi Xian." Xiao Yi Xian lightly shook her hand, her voice soft and unhurried.

Gu Fengchen glanced at Yaoye, then at Xiao Yi Xian, and sighed inwardly. These two women looked amicable on the surface, but their words did not seem nearly so peaceful.

"Sister Yaoye, why are you here?!!"

Just as Gu Fengchen was getting a headache over how to deal with Xiao Yi Xian and Yaoye, another delighted voice came from outside.

At some point, Xue Mei, with her silver hair and silver qipao, had also arrived at the entrance.

Fuck.

Gu Fengchen felt as if his heart had skipped half a beat.

They said three women made a show. These three were each more cunning than the last. Maybe he should just slip away.

"Isn't this Xue Mei? Long time no see. You've grown up so much?" Yaoye greeted her with a beaming smile, only for Xue Mei to continue, "Sister Yaoye, we're both guests of the Myriad Medicine Pavilion. Gu Feng, shouldn't you pour us some tea?"

Well, damn.

He suddenly realized this girl was starting trouble.

With that one seemingly casual sentence, she had placed herself and Yaoye in a camp separate from the Myriad Medicine Pavilion.

That made them members of the same camp, while their enemy was Xiao Yi Xian.

Hmm, why did Xue Mei seem somewhat hostile toward Xiao Yi Xian?

Could it be that this girl had also seen Xiao Yi Xian come over last night and change her clothes into two sets?

The moment she saw Yaoye, Xue Mei had secretly started forming an alliance. Damn it, his living environment was getting a little harsh.

Still, these two women probably did not know how terrifying the Body of Calamitous Poison was. Was this divine being someone the two of them dared provoke?

Xiao Yi Xian glanced at Xue Mei but said nothing.

However, just as the confrontation between the three women was beginning, a tremendous bang sounded from outside.

Gu Fengchen froze again. What day was it today? Why was it so lively?

"Tell that man named Gu Feng to come out! The Serpent Nest Mercenary Group is handling business. Anyone who dares interfere will be killed without mercy!"

Gu Fengchen's eyes instantly turned cold. The Serpent Nest Mercenary Group had come looking for trouble?

If Yaoye and Xue Mei had not been here today, Gu Fengchen might have used his Flying Dou Skill to take Xiao Yi Xian and flee directly.

But Gu Fengchen's backing today seemed quite formidable. He had no need to fear the Serpent Nest Mercenary Group at all.

Could a mere mercenary group, no matter how powerful its backing, compare to the Jia Ma Imperial Family?

Gu Fengchen had truly embraced living off women.

One senior sister, Xue Mei, backed by the Alchemist Guild.

One older sister, Yaoye, backed by the Jia Ma Imperial Family.

One Xiao Yi Xian, who would one day become an expert who looked down upon the world.

And there was also Gu Xun'er. Fuck, no wonder Xiao Yan liked hiding behind women. These women really were incredible.

At that moment, the Serpent Nest Mercenary Group stormed in from outside like a dark swarm.

The man was bald, and half his fleshy face was covered in dark blue birthmarks. A finger-length scar stretched from the corner of his left eye to the corner of his mouth. He looked like an evil ghost, vicious to the extreme.

The Leader of the Serpent Nest Mercenary Group.

Gu Fengchen stepped forward first. The Leader of the Serpent Nest Mercenary Group looked Gu Fengchen up and down, then sneered. "Kid, you've got some nerve. You didn't run when you saw me? Looks like you don't understand the weight of a Dou Ling. Today, I'll break your legs, drag you back, make you kowtow three times to my brothers, and then send you on your way!"

Just as the Leader was about to strike and break Gu Fengchen's limbs before taking him away, his gaze suddenly froze upon seeing the three women behind Gu Fengchen.

First was Xiao Yi Xian. Setting aside her fairy-like, otherworldly temperament for the moment.

The woman beside her had long legs, a narrow waist, and a full chest. Her voluptuous, tall figure was displayed to the fullest.

Wasn't that the Great Princess of the Jia Ma Imperial Family?

His gaze shifted again to the remaining woman. She wore silver robes, had an exquisite face and slender brows. Of course, the most eye-catching feature was the long silver hair of the woman in silver, cascading all the way to her waist.

She had more charm than heroic spirit, but she was still a beauty capable of toppling a nation.

The Leader did not know this woman's identity, but wasn't the man behind her President Frank of the Alchemist Guild?

Then, in the next instant, the Leader saw an old man in hemp robes walk out from the innermost part of the hall. Smiling, he came to Gu Fengchen's side and asked, "Little friend Gu Feng, it seems you've run into some trouble?"

In that instant, with just that one sentence, the Leader's heart went ice-cold. It felt as though something were lodged in his throat, impossible to swallow.

How could he not recognize that old man in hemp robes?

Who else could the elder at the Great Princess's side be besides Jia Xingtian, foremost among the Jia Ma Empire's Top Ten Experts?

Hiss, it seemed he had become the trouble mentioned by a Peak Dou Emperor. Well, was there even any point in trying to save himself?
