Chapter 573 Kristina
Chapter 573 Kristina
The more Blood Demon spoke, the darker Ye Xiu’s expression became.
The situation in the Snow Region Forest was the same as in Medicine King Valley’s Extreme Abyss: all the surrounding flora and fauna had mutated. The only difference was that the mutations in the Snow Region Forest had been occurring for a much longer time, to the point that the Snow Region bears had evolved enough to hunt down Blood Demon, a War God.
"Since then, I haven’t dared to enter that forest. I dug a hole on an iceberg over ten miles away and have been living inside to keep watch," Blood Demon continued. "About seven days ago, exactly one hundred people emerged from the forest and headed straight south. I thought they were the only ones in there, and since I had attained strength beyond that of a War God, I boldly re-entered the forest. That’s when I encountered those two from earlier..."
Qin Qing and the others now mostly understood why Blood Demon was being pursued. It all boiled down to two words: courting death.
But Ye Xiu was lost in thought. This Mist Chant Martial Meeting is different from the previous ones. The monsters from the Snow Region Forest, who have hidden from the world for who knows how many years, have also emerged. What on earth has happened?
Just then, the Envoy’s phone in Ye Xiu’s pocket buzzed with a text message. It was from the Envoy’s father.
"I just received news. Princess Kristina of the Golden Family is out for her worldly training and is currently on her way to Yunluo City International Airport. She is expected to arrive in about fifteen minutes. Find a way to get close to her and win her favor."
After reading the message, Ye Xiu narrowed his eyes. Those one hundred people from the Snow Region Forest... they might be targeting the Golden Family’s princess.
"I have to step out for a bit!"
Ye Xiu stood up. As he reached the door, he stopped and said, "Chloe, notify Gong Jin to immediately activate the global intelligence network and raise its alert level to the highest. The moment you spot those one hundred people from the Snow Region Forest, do not act rashly. Report to me immediately!"
With that, he ran out and drove straight to Yunluo City International Airport.
He had just arrived when he saw a stunningly beautiful woman walking out of the airport exit.
One glance was all it took for Ye Xiu to be certain. This beauty must be Princess Kristina of the Golden Family.
She looked to be seventeen or eighteen, with beautiful, long, wavy golden hair and deep blue eyes. Yet, she had the features of someone from Dongzhou, with flawless skin as fair and smooth as jade and perfectly sculpted features.
In Ye Xiu’s opinion, Gong Jin’s beauty was unrivaled. However, Kristina’s beauty could match Gong Jin’s. In terms of temperament, though, Gong Jin was completely outclassed! That proud, superior noble air isn’t something that can be cultivated overnight! It’s as if she’s here to deliver the addresses of the three Judicator Families to me.
From a distance, Ye Xiu snapped a photo of Kristina and sent it to You Ming. "This person is Princess Kristina of the Golden Family. She just arrived at Yunluo City International Airport. Check her travel route; we might be able to follow this lead and find the addresses of the three Judicator Families."
"Got it!" You Ming replied.
Ye Xiu pocketed his phone, about to get out of the car to strike up a conversation with Kristina, when he suddenly saw a handsome young man emerge from the airport. After the man said a few words to her, Kristina followed him to a black Mercedes parked by the road.
Damn it. Does the princess of the mighty Golden Family travel with her own boy toy?
Resigned, Ye Xiu had no choice but to abandon the idea of approaching her and started tailing them in his car.
"Kristina, Yunluo City is my turf," the young man in the passenger seat said, turning to brag to Kristina in the back. "With me as your guide, I guarantee you’ll have the best time. You came here for fun, and you’ll leave happy."
"Mm," Kristina responded with a cold nod.
The young man’s heart burned with desire. Ever since he met Kristina abroad, he had resolved at first sight to win her over. So, he had engineered a "chance" encounter and struck up a conversation, which had naturally led to them becoming friends. But Kristina was too indifferent. No matter what kind of advances he made, she was like a block of Cold Ice—no, a block of wood—completely unmoved. So, he had invited her to visit Yunluo City. This was his home turf, the only place where he could fully display all his advantages before her.
"There’s a car following us," Kristina said suddenly.
The driver and the young man were taken aback. The driver glanced at the rearview mirror, while the young man turned his head to look. Sure enough, a Land Rover was following closely behind them.
It must be someone who saw Kristina’s beauty at the airport and is following us to create a chance to talk to her, the young man assumed. "Force him to a stop," he ordered. "I’d like to see who has the gall to tail my car on my own turf in Yunluo City."
But inside, he was thinking, How dare he have designs on my woman? He’s courting death!
"Yes, Young Master!"
The driver glanced at the rearview mirror and slammed on the brakes. He expected the pursuing Land Rover to rear-end them, which would give the Young Master a reason to teach its driver a lesson. Unexpectedly, Ye Xiu was an excellent driver with quick reflexes. He came to an abrupt stop, his car halting about a meter from the Mercedes’s rear bumper.
"Reverse!" the young man commanded.
CRUNCH!
The driver shifted into reverse, floored the accelerator, and the back of the Mercedes slammed into the front of the Land Rover.
"Kristina, wait in the car. I’ll go take care of the scoundrel who dared to covet your beauty," the young man said before he and the driver got out of the car. He walked angrily to the Land Rover, kicked it, and snarled with the air of a gangster, "Are you fucking blind? What kind of driving is that?"
Ye Xiu got out of his car, his brow furrowed. "Your car reversed into mine," he stated coldly. "Why are you trying to turn the tables and blame me?"
"Bullshit!" the young man cursed. "Even a newbie fresh from their driving test wouldn’t be stupid enough to reverse into someone. You’re clearly just refusing to take responsibility."
Ye Xiu could see exactly what was happening. This guy is looking for trouble.
