CHAPTER 981: CHAPTER 977: THERE ARE THREE PEOPLE IN THE ROOM

Han Qing’er never accepted interviews because she was cultivating to achieve immortality, and there were many things in her life that could not see the light of day.

Facing Yu Qin’s suggestion, Han Qing’er turned a deaf ear and lowered herself, crawling on the ground to Ye Fan, rubbing her head against his leg.

"So devout, are you hoping your junior martial brother will spare you? Or would it be better to come in and clarify matters regarding Fa Ying?" Wu Ding glanced at Yu Qin, who was dumbfounded by what was happening in front of her. The dignified owner of the Han business empire was so humble and submissive before a man?

"You all?" Yu Qin wanted to ask clearly, but by then no one would answer her.

She saw Ye Fan and Li Zhaojun supporting each other as they entered the room. Han Qing’er had to crawl in like a small pet, her limbs touching the ground. As she entered the door, Wu Ding inadvertently kicked her from behind, but she showed no temper, not even a shred of basic shame.

"Could it be kidnapping? But that’s not right; would a kidnapping happen on Han’s Hotel territory? What’s going on?" Yu Qin wondered, but at this point, she was the only one left in the corridor.

"No, I must follow up and report on this. If there’s explosive news, it’ll be more newsworthy than covering the bombing case."

As a responsible journalist, Yu Qin wanted to follow and interview, but she clearly overlooked one problem: with her strength alone, she could not possibly interview Han Qing’er and uncover her secrets. Even if she found out something, without video evidence, no one would believe what she said.

In the room, Han Qing’er was being "interrogated." If it was proven that this woman was still in league with Fa Ying, she would be doomed to die.

Ye Fan was her adjudicator because he was her master, with the right to decide her life and property.

"...Master, this humble servant truly did not notify that wicked woman. I also don’t know why she came to Jingzhao City..." Han Qing’er wept pathetically, with tears covering her face, "If the master doesn’t believe this servant, just kill this servant with a single palm strike. Living without the master’s trust is meaningless."

Ye Fan did not act but instead looked at Li Zhaojun. He despised betrayal from the people by his side. Although he did not truly believe in Han Qing’er’s loyalty, if a woman he had once possessed betrayed him, he would rather abandon her in a deserted place to fend for herself.

Wu Ding said, "The most unreadable thing is the human heart. If junior brother can’t bring himself to act ruthlessly, let senior sister do it. With senior sister’s cultivation, she can turn her into air in an instant, leaving no corpse behind!"

Upon hearing Wu Ding’s ruthless words, Han Qing’er shivered in fear, indicating she was indeed afraid of death.

Han Qing’er crawled a few steps to Ye Fan and clung to his calf. "Master, for the sake of this servant serving you, spare me... I truly have no connection with that wicked woman Fa Ying."

"Though Fa Ying was rescued before, her current condition is unknown. I cannot tell whether she will reappear or not," Elder Wu was unconcerned about Han Qing’er’s fate; he was more concerned about Fa Ying’s whereabouts.

Wu Ding replied, "Previously, with just a strange gust of wind, Fa Ying disappeared without a trace. Even a master at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage couldn’t quietly save someone like that. How can senior brother be sure the rescuer is a person and not some illusionary sorcery she used?"

After Wu Ding finished speaking, everyone looked at Ye Fan because ultimately, whether to execute Han Qing’er, or how to pursue Fa Ying, was up to Ye Fan, the person involved, to decide.

"Indeed, Fa Ying has harmed me and Zhaojun before. Now there’s no trace of her, yet I suspect her cultivation cannot be restored and poses no threat to us. Only the Royal Void Sect worries me." Ye Fan said.

Wu Ding nodded, "Junior brother, you’re spot on. Be wary of the Royal Void Sect in the future. But the Royal Void Sect has never been to Earth, and now with the matters of the Earth Origin Sect and the Prophecy Jade, they’ll be too busy to focus on us. You just enjoy your good days here on Earth with Zhaojun... and your beautiful companions."

"If it were truly as calm as senior sister says, it would be nice." Ye Fan sighed softly.

Wu Ding asked, "What about this woman?"

Han Qing’er became nervous, clutching Ye Fan’s trouser leg tighter because Ye Fan’s words would determine whether she lived or her soul would be scattered.

"Until the matter is clarified, I won’t kill her, but I also won’t touch her." It was as if Ye Fan had given Han Qing’er a suspended death sentence; for now, he would not kill her, but if it turned out she was causing trouble, she would still face death.

Wu Ding chuckled, "Junior brother won’t touch her? How do you usually handle your body’s restlessness? Oh, right, you have Zhaojun and Min Shang; with those two, you can toss aside this Han girl. I seemed to have glimpsed something I shouldn’t have on my way back."

Li Zhaojun blushed yet remained silent, while Min Shang’s heart fluttered like a small deer, stealing a glance at Ye Fan as she still didn’t understand how he would accept her.

"Let’s all regulate our breaths for now." Ye Fan said, "Later, I’ll send senior brother and senior sister back to the Pan Gu Secret Realm. I’ll find a place with Zhaojun to help her heal, while also consolidating our cultivation."

"Is there a better place for cultivation than the Pan Gu Secret Realm? Forget it; if you don’t want to go back with Zhaojun, senior sister won’t force you. Since we’re leaving, I still want to stay a little while longer to try the conveniences of Earth. If not for cultivation, even senior sister would like to stay on this wonderful Earth, find a caring man, and live an undisturbed life." Wu Ding said this with a wistful look at Ye Fan, as if hinting that she spoke of him as that man.

Wu Ding and Qing Wu returned to their room, while Han Qing’er cautiously crawled out the door to the room next door.

"Ye Fan, are you feeling better?" Li Zhaojun looked at Ye Fan with concern, wanting to know his condition.

Ye Fan smiled and said, "Why, are you worried that my body is again overwhelmed with restless energy due to the previous battle?"

"Yes." Li Zhaojun’s response colored her cheeks with a lovely blush.

"No worries, my body feels much better. It’s you who’ve expended so much spiritual energy and should properly regulate and replenish it. I still have two Sky Sea Elixirs here, perfect for your healing." Ye Fan turned his head to look at Min Shang, "Shang, come help me."

"Okay." Min Shang felt cheerful now, having finally been noticed by Ye Fan, and a subtle smile graced her lips.

When Min Shang came before Ye Fan, she began to remove her clothes.

Ye Fan asked, "What are you doing?"

"Isn’t it for healing? I thought... Am I not..." Min Shang, who was never shy, found her words faltering, her cheeks flushed with a hint of bashfulness.
