Chapter 676: Chapter 673: Absolutely No Solution_1
Of course, such thoughts could only ever remain in his mind. Having an affair with Li Ruoxiang… was clearly impossible.
His current location was not far from Houshan, and with no one monitoring the area, it was not difficult for Yang Chen to head towards the mountain. In just the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, he landed from the air and arrived below the waterfall at Houshan.
The waterfall was empty, with no one in sight. Yang Chen couldn’t help but feel a little amused. Although he did not see Li Ruoxiang, he knew that she must be here. The reason he hadn’t seen her yet… could only be explained in one way.
It must be a woman’s shyness.
Shyness was something every woman possessed, and Li Ruoxiang should be no exception. Perhaps only Zhang Xuelian wouldn’t have such a thing.
With that in mind, Yang Chen spoke with his hands behind his back, “Sect Leader Li, you can come out now.”
As expected, just as his words fell, a shadow appeared from the side. As the shadow drew closer, Yang Chen observed the woman more carefully. It was none other than Li Ruoxiang.
Li Ruoxiang stood tall, her hands clasped behind her back. She was still dressed in her usual attire, her eyebrows above her beautiful eyes expressing seriousness and determination. She spoke stiffly, “Young Master Yang, there’s no one tailing you, right?”
“Ahem.” Yang Chen felt slightly awkward. “Sect Leader Li, it’s not like we’re doing anything secretive, so there’s nothing to be concerned about.”
“Hmph!” Li Ruoxiang snorted coldly.
Yang Chen rubbed his nose, suddenly remembering that Li Ruoxiang was not Qingyin. He almost mistook Li Ruoxiang for Qingyin. It was best to behave more cautiously in front of this woman.
With that thought in mind, Yang Chen asked, “Sect Leader Li, did you call me here for the matter of the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate?”
“What else do you think we have to discuss?” Li Ruoxiang glared at Yang Chen.
“…”
Yang Chen always felt that there was a strange atmosphere between him and Li Ruoxiang, a very odd aura that seemed to arise whenever the two of them were together. He had been alone with women before, but never had he experienced such a strange feeling.
Clearly, Li Ruoxiang felt it too, because whenever she spoke with Yang Chen, her words often took a subtle, ambiguous turn within a few sentences.
To avoid any awkwardness, Yang Chen took out the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate, “Sect Leader Li, have you come up with a new idea to unlock the bondage on the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate during these few days?”
“Bring the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate over here,” Li Ruoxiang said slowly.
Of course, Yang Chen would not resist. He handed over the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate.
Li Ruoxiang took the Dragon Plate, and then, a green plate that emitted a mysterious light appeared in her hand.
Yang Chen looked carefully and was startled, “Is this the Treasure of Destruction?”
“Your vision is not bad,” Li Ruoxiang said.
Yang Chen shivered all over.
What was the Treasure of Destruction?
It was an extremely rare treasure, usually used to destroy Spirit Weapons. Spirit Weapons were generally very durable and not easily destroyed, so Master Refiners crafted these sharp Treasures of Destruction.
The function of the Treasure of Destruction was rather weak, so it was rarely used. Why was it considered weak? Because it was useless in actual combat, as long as the opponents did not use their Spirit Weapons and the Treasure of Destruction to clash, the Treasure of Destruction had no purpose. Its only function was to destroy Spirit Weapons.
But who would destroy a Spirit Weapon for no reason?
Furthermore, since the Treasure of Destruction had no other uses, it was an extremely rare item.
However, using it to destroy the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate seemed like an appropriate choice.
“Sect Leader Li… you plan to use the Treasure of Destruction to damage the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate and then forcibly break the bond between us?” asked Yang Chen.
“What else do you think?” Li Ruoxiang replied.
Yang Chen stepped back nervously and said earnestly, “Sect Leader Li, if we do that, I’m afraid both of us will suffer backlash.”
“We don’t have time to consider the backlash right now,” Li Ruoxiang said.
Then Yang Chen remembered that Li Ruoxiang was originally a ruthless person. He didn’t know if she was ruthless to others, but she definitely wouldn’t be merciful to herself.
As expected, Li Ruoxiang didn’t even bother discussing it and directly used the Treasure of Destruction to smash the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate. Yang Chen hurriedly retracted his True Qi to protect himself, preparing to avoid any backlash!
But the outcome was beyond his expectations, as he didn’t seem to encounter any backlash.
When he looked back at the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate, it was intact, with no signs of damage from Li Ruoxiang’s attack.
Both Yang Chen and Li Ruoxiang were astonished at the outcome.
Actually, if possible, Yang Chen wouldn’t mind if Li Ruoxiang destroyed the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate. At most, he would just suffer from some backlash. However, it seemed like the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate was a real treasure, as even the Treasure of Destruction couldn’t break it, let alone leave a single crack on it. freewebnσvel.cѳm
Li Ruoxiang was also visibly shocked. Unwilling to accept the result, she gripped the Treasure of Destruction tightly and smashed it down again.
There was a loud crash, but the result was still the same as before.
No one could tell what kind of material the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate was made of; it was incredibly resilient. Even the Treasure of Destruction, which was meant to break Spirit Weapons, couldn’t do anything to the Dragon Plate.
“Ahem… Sect Leader Li, it seems we need to find another way to break the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate,” said Yang Chen.
Although Li Ruoxiang was unhappy, she didn’t vent her anger at Yang Chen. She took a deep breath, “If the Treasure of Destruction doesn’t work, then we must find another way. You keep the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate. Don’t just rely on me to figure it out, you need to put in effort too. As long as this Gold and Silver Dragon Plate isn’t broken, you won’t be able to leave!”
“I… I understand,” Yang Chen massaged his eyebrows, feeling somewhat of a headache.
Just as he collected his thoughts and received the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate, the mermaid girls in the Eight Extremities Flowing River Space suddenly said, “Young Master, we might have a way to unlock the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate.”
“You…” Yang Chen was surprised to hear the words of the mermaid girls who had returned from the Tiandu Divine Country.
But he had no time to communicate with the mermaid girls. When he turned to look at Li Ruoxiang, he saw her looking back at him calmly, “Tomorrow, our Green Lotus Sect is hosting a gathering.”
“A gathering? Sect Leader Li, this gathering must not be as simple as it seems,” said Yang Chen, as he saw Li Ruoxiang’s look suggesting that there was something she wanted to clarify, but there was also a hint of reluctance. It wasn’t difficult for him to judge that the gathering was not ordinary.
Li Ruoxiang looked deeply into Yang Chen’s eyes. Although he was very young, his wisdom and talent were exceptional, making it impossible for her to underestimate him and compelling her to find him irresistibly fascinating.
