Chapter 712: Chapter 712: Disgusted by Ye Xiu Twice
Only then did all the members of the "Take Down Ye Xiu Alliance" notice they were soaked to the bone in the pouring rain.
Meanwhile, not only were the clothes, hair, and backpacks of Ye Xiu and An Dongye dry, but even the ground within a two-meter radius of their feet was completely untouched by the rain.
It seemed...
It seemed as if the rain actively avoided a one-meter space above Ye Xiu and An Dongye’s heads.
This scene was nothing short of a miracle.
"How did you do that?" someone asked in astonishment.
"It’s just a bit of fine manipulation of externalized Martial Prowess. Do you want to learn?" Ye Xiu asked with a smile.
Upon hearing this, everyone, including An Dongye, looked at Ye Xiu with fiery eyes. Of course, they wanted to learn. This little trick would be incredibly cool, especially in a torrential downpour like this.
However, the members of the "Take Down Ye Xiu Alliance" were too embarrassed to ask, since they were still supposed to beat up Ye Xiu later.
"Continue listening to me boast—oops, I mean, listen to my story. After I’m done, I’ll teach you."
Ye Xiu saw right through the thoughts of the "Take Down Ye Xiu Alliance" members and proactively set his condition.
Every member of the alliance immediately perked up. They continued to listen with great interest as Ye Xiu boasted about Huang Quan, all of them inwardly hoping he would hurry up and finish so he could teach them the "Rain Evading" micro-operation.
However, Ye Xiu’s story dragged on until it was dark.
He talked until every member of the "Take Down Ye Xiu Alliance" was on the verge of a mental breakdown.
There were just too many stories about Huang Quan!
But they were genuinely awed by Huang Quan’s strength, power, influence, and its domineering will to annihilate all who opposed it.
No wonder no Martial Artist in the world dared to defy an order from Huang Quan.
"Ye Xiu, we understand everything about Huang Quan now. It’s time for you to fulfill your promise and teach us the ’Rain Evading’ micro-operation," someone said, mustering their courage.
At his words, everyone looked at Ye Xiu with anticipation.
"Sure!" Ye Xiu readily agreed. "The rain has stopped now. You should go change. After all, learning my Ultimate Move in soaking wet clothes would be quite uncomfortable."
He’s this considerate?
The members of the "Take Down Ye Xiu Alliance" were almost moved by Ye Xiu’s thoughtfulness.
"Alright, we’ll go change!"
With that, all the members of the "Take Down Ye Xiu Alliance" ran off to find their luggage and change their clothes.
"Little bro, they want to beat you up. Why would you teach them an Ultimate Move? Do you think they won’t attack you after you teach them?" An Dongye felt Ye Xiu’s ’generosity’ and ’repaying evil with good’ was a waste.
"I’m just messing with them." Ye Xiu gave a cold smile and pointed to a luxurious cruise ship in the distance. "Come on, we’re taking that ship."
As he spoke, he scooped up An Dongye and leaped off the cargo ship.
An Dongye screamed, "I can’t swim!"
However, the moment her feet touched the sea, Ye Xiu pulled her along, and they began sprinting across the surface of the water.
Holy smokes! Is this the legendary Lightness Skill: Water Gliding?
"Damn it, that shameless Ye Xiu ran away!" someone yelled after hearing An Dongye’s scream.
What?
All the members of the "Take Down Ye Xiu Alliance" rushed to the edge of the deck. Seeing Ye Xiu sprinting across the sea, they all fumed with anger.
"That bastard Ye Xiu is too cunning."
"He never planned to teach us the Rain Evading Ultimate Move. He just tricked us into changing our clothes so he could escape."
"Damn it! There are thousands of us, and we got tricked by Ye Xiu twice! Damn it..."
"Shit, we should have beaten him up first, made him give back our one million, and then listened to his stories about Huang Quan."
The crowd of thousands erupted in furious curses.
Then, someone suddenly asked, "Has anyone ever heard of a Kung Fu technique that allows you to run on the sea as if it were solid ground?"
His words made everyone realize just how bizarre the sight of Ye Xiu carrying An Dongye across the sea truly was.
At the same time, they were profoundly shocked.
"This Ye Xiu kid is seriously strange. He seems to know a lot of weird Kung Fu techniques."
"Next time we catch him, we have to dig every last technique out of his brain."
"Let him run. We’ll see him on Biluo Island eventually. When we do, we’ll beat him half to death first."
They watched as Ye Xiu carried An Dongye across the sea and leaped onto a luxury cruise ship.
The thousands of members of the "Take Down Ye Xiu Alliance" hated him so much their teeth itched.
***
Ye Xiu landed on the luxury cruise ship with An Dongye in his arms.
Because of the earlier rain, everyone was inside, so no one noticed two extra people suddenly appear on deck.
"Little bro, this cruise ship seems a bit faster than the ocean freighter those guys from the ’Take Down Ye Xiu Alliance’ are on," An Dongye remarked.
"Mhm." Ye Xiu nodded, glancing toward the horizon at the ship carrying the Heaven Net.
In truth, the main reason he had switched to this luxury cruise ship was its speed. It was fast enough to catch up to the Heaven Net’s vessel.
Yan Long had screwed him over.
He had to give Yan Long a good beating.
Ye Xiu did a quick mental calculation. If this cruise ship went full speed, it would catch the Heaven Net’s ship in about an hour.
"Little bro, after listening to you boast all day, I’m a little hungry!" An Dongye said.
Was I boasting? I was telling the truth; you just hadn’t heard of some of it before.
Ye Xiu complained internally, then said aloud, "This luxury cruise ship has a restaurant. I’ll take you to try the food."
An Dongye’s eyes lit up. "Great!"
Ye Xiu led An Dongye into the luxurious and spacious restaurant, immediately drawing the gazes of the diners.
An Dongye was simply too stunning. Her figure was attractive, her appearance pure and beautiful, and her skin incredibly fair. To top it off, she had a penchant for wearing shorts that showed off her long legs.
She turned heads wherever she went.
When the male diners saw Ye Xiu beside her, they all felt a pang of envy, wishing they could be the one accompanying such a beauty.
"Hey, how come I didn’t notice such a pretty girl on board before?" A blond young man, who had been elegantly eating a steak, stood up to block Ye Xiu and An Dongye’s path. He unabashedly sized up An Dongye and asked in a foreign language, "Hello, beautiful. Let me introduce myself. I’m Oleg, the sole heir to the chairman of the Rosen Corporation from Red Blood Country. Judging by your appearance, you’re from Dongzhou. Which country are you from?"
This was his usual pick-up routine. As soon as he revealed his identity, beautiful women would typically scramble to introduce themselves and find any way to please him, often ending up in his bed.
He was confident An Dongye would be the same.
Instead, An Dongye just glared and snapped, "Jerk!"
Oleg was bewildered.
Everyone in the restaurant was speechless.
Ye Xiu almost burst out laughing. An Dongye truly never forgot her Hei Sangjing act, no matter where she went.
Oleg and the other diners were utterly dumbfounded. Oleg, in particular, felt as if he’d been slapped. He had expected An Dongye to cling to him after he introduced himself, but instead, she had cursed him out.
