Chapter 2195: Chapter 2196: What If You Die Here

Ye Xunhuan’s words, neither light nor heavy, echoed in her ears, as Ye Xunhuan’s sharp gaze appeared in his eyes. Yan Jingchu’s whole body suddenly felt like it was electrocuted, her delicate body trembling uncontrollably.

While the others were stunned.

What does Ye Xunhuan mean by this sentence? Could it be that Yan Jingchu is Ye Xunhuan’s dog?

But is that really possible?

It’s important to note that Yan Jingchu is the eldest daughter of the Yan family, and the current state of the Yan family is almost entirely thanks to Ye Xunhuan. Yan Jingchu and Ye Xunhuan should be at each other’s throats, how could she be his dog?

But if that isn’t the case, then Ye Xunhuan has no reason to say this.

At the same time, Yan Jingchu’s reaction now is also telling everyone that what Ye Xunhuan said could very well be true.

The next moment, Yan Jingchu took a deep breath, quickly adjusting her mood, then said to Ye Xunhuan, "Ye Xunhuan, that was just a means of survival for me, if I hadn’t done that, would I still be alive now?"

Yan Jingchu did not deny Ye Xunhuan’s words, she simply admitted it calmly.

"If I weren’t alive, wouldn’t my Yan family be without anyone?"

Although Yan Jingchu admitted it, she also conveyed to everyone that she only acted out of necessity, forced by Ye Xunhuan, otherwise she would die.

Ye Xunhuan looked at Yan Jingchu with interest: "It seems I didn’t slap your face hard enough for you to realize the pain!"

Speaking, Ye Xunhuan’s mouth miraculously curved into a slight smile.

The next moment, Ye Xunhuan’s figure blurred slightly. Before everyone recovered entirely, Ye Xunhuan had already leapt past Old Xun, appearing directly in front of Yan Jingchu, and his right hand suddenly swung up, aiming to slap her face.

But at this moment, Old Xun’s dragon-headed cane jabbed backwards fiercely, heading straight for Ye Xunhuan.

It was as if Ye Xunhuan had eyes on his back. Before Old Xun’s dragon-headed cane could hit him, Ye Xunhuan shifted his feet slightly, dodging to the side, and his raised palm didn’t stop, still targeting Yan Jingchu’s face.

Seeing Ye Xunhuan’s right hand about to viciously hit Yan Jingchu’s face, Yan Jingchu’s hands suddenly lifted, blocking Ye Xunhuan’s slap.

Even so, Yan Jingchu’s whole body still uncontrollably retreated several steps before slowly stabilizing her posture!

Ye Xunhuan’s face showed a look of surprise.

Yan Jingchu had been pierced through her clavicle, rendering her disabled, yet she instinctively blocked him now, which could not help but surprise Ye Xunhuan.

Although Ye Xunhuan had not used his true strength, this slap was not something a person with a pierced clavicle could block.

"Ye Xunhuan, aren’t you being too arrogant?" Old Xun’s face looked very unpleasant.

He hadn’t expected Ye Xunhuan to suddenly get physical without warning, especially using Shrinking Ground Into An Inch, instantly appearing in front of Yan Jingchu, leaving him completely unprepared.

If Yan Jingchu hadn’t already recovered, that slap from Ye Xunhuan would have definitely landed on Yan Jingchu’s face.

That time, it wouldn’t just be Yan Jingchu’s face hit, but his own face, Old Xun’s, would be hit as well.

And if word got out, who knows how outsiders would mock him, Old Xun.

Ye Xunhuan’s sudden action filled Old Xun’s heart with a burst of hostility and anger, he wanted nothing more than to kill Ye Xunhuan immediately.

Ye Xunhuan didn’t pay attention to Old Xun, but rather stared at Yan Jingchu and said, "I see you have the courage to challenge me now; it’s because your injuries have healed and your strength is restored, even slightly improved!"

"If I’m not wrong, it’s this old thing who healed you, right?"

With that, Ye Xunhuan slowly cast his gaze onto Old Xun.

"Ye Xunhuan, do you think I’ll tell you?" Yan Jingchu said coldly, quickly hiding behind Old Xun.

Though Yan Jingchu had indeed recovered, and it was Old Xun who healed her, she still didn’t think she could be Ye Xunhuan’s match.

If Ye Xunhuan wanted to kill her, she didn’t think she could stop him, so hiding next to Old Xun was the safest place for her now.

Ye Xunhuan instantly saw through Yan Jingchu’s little trick, but he didn’t care: "Yan Jingchu, do you really think having this old guy here will keep you safe?"

Before Yan Jingchu could respond, Ye Xunhuan spoke again: "Yan Jingchu, you truly overestimate this old thing and underestimate me!"

"When I, Ye Xunhuan, want someone dead, they don’t survive, and you’re no exception."

The gentle face and light tone revealed an arrogance and brazenness that couldn’t be hidden, completely disregarding Old Xun.

In Ye Xunhuan’s eyes, Old Xun was nothing but a clown, an ant he could squash at will.

Seeing Ye Xunhuan’s utter disdain for him, Old Xun’s face turned livid, and his aged eyes were filled with sharpness.

"Ye Xunhuan, no wonder the King and Xiao Jiangnan both said you’re arrogant, seeing it today, it truly isn’t false!"

Ye Xunhuan raised an eyebrow: "Seems like you’re a Protector..."

"That’s right, I am Xun Wanli!" Xun Wanli said coldly.

"I don’t know you." Ye Xunhuan said dismissively, "What’s your ranking?"

"Below the King!"

Ye Xunhuan’s face showed a look of surprise, as he looked at Xun Wanli in disbelief.

Ranking below the King, meaning this old guy was the second-in-command of the Protectors.

No wonder Yan Jingchu was so fearless and calm, even daring to challenge him, turns out she was involved with Xun Wanli, the second-in-command of the Protectors.

At the same time, Yan Jingchu willingly following Xun Wanli made clear.

Xun Wanli, the second-in-command of the Protectors, although an old man, was powerful enough for Yan Jingchu to sacrifice anything to cling onto Xun Wanli.

Because by clinging to Xun Wanli, she could ensure the longevity of the Yan family, and live more splendidly and colorfully, and possibly rid herself of Ye Xunhuan.

Thus she was willing to give herself, willing to financially support Xun Wanli.

After a brief shock, Ye Xunhuan slowly regained his composure and said with a half-smile, "The King actually sent you, today’s matter must be significant!"

"But I wonder, if you die here today, what then?"
