Chapter 395: Chapter 395: Setting Out _1
Reminded by Wang Yating, Ye Ming suddenly realized that the international combat team’s exchange was about to begin.
He had been so preoccupied with recent events that he had completely put this matter to the back of his mind. At this moment, he hastily explained, "I’m sorry, I almost forgot."
Wang Yating then said, "It’s okay, our Instructor Ye wants to accompany his girlfriend, so of course he wouldn’t dwell on such trivial matters."
"But I’ve already purchased the airline tickets, and I still hope that Instructor Ye can find the time to join the Falcon Squad on this trip."
Wang Yating’s tone was filled with jealousy, which Ye Ming could clearly sense.
However, at this moment, he could only pretend not to understand and said, "Alright, I will definitely be there!"
After hanging up the phone, Xu Lele had already approached with a smile and asked Ye Ming, "Was it the Falcon Squad’s captain who called you?"
Ye Ming frowned slightly, surprised, and asked, "How did you know?"
Xu Lele chuckled and said, "It’s okay. I should be happy that my boyfriend is so popular."
"Don’t worry, I won’t mind!"
Xu Lele snuggled into Ye Ming’s arms, smiling as she said, "As long as I know I’m in your heart, that’s enough for me!"
Ye Ming gave a wry smile, struggling to find the right words.
Just as he thought of an explanation and was about to speak, Xu Lele silenced him with her lips.
After a moment of tenderness, the two went to rest early.
The reason Xu Lele knew about this matter was thanks to Xu Xincheng.
The Falcon Squad had arrived in Japan ahead of time to prepare for the upcoming international competition.
For Xu Xincheng, arriving in a foreign land for the first time, he was quite happy and shared the news with Xu Lele right away.
As the chief instructor of the Falcon Squad, Ye Ming was still preoccupied with women’s issues, causing Wang Yating much distress. Hence, she had made that call to mock Ye Ming.
Only after Xu Lele fell asleep did Ye Ming slowly open the book on the Soul Transfer Spell.
What was recorded inside shocked Ye Ming greatly; he had always practiced on the righteous path and had never dabbled in such forbidden arts before.
The true Soul Transfer Spell was a cruel process. It involved stripping a Heavenly-tier expert’s soul from their body and erasing the consciousness from the soul, leaving only the powerful soul to be used as a medicinal primer for Xu Lele to consume.
Afterwards, this expert’s soul would be used to repair Xu Lele’s body and reshape her internal organs.
With sufficient cultivation, even reconstructing the physical body was not impossible.
This forbidden art was akin to miraculous craftsmanship, even more shocking than the Human Puppet Spell.
However, Ye Ming quickly convinced himself. He was about to head to Japan, a place where he could let loose and capturing one or two experts to test the spell seemed feasible.
Thus, filled with anticipation, he embarked on the journey to Japan with Xu Lele.
After recuperating in Wanhua Valley for some time, Xu Lele’s health and mood had obviously improved from before.
On the airplane, she seemed a bit reluctant to leave.
But as the plane crossed the ocean and was about to reach the foreign country, Xu Lele’s interest was piqued again. She asked Ye Ming, "Ye Ming, what fun things do you think there are in Japan?"
Ye Ming shook his head and said, "I’m not too familiar."
As his voice trailed off, the chubby young man sitting on the other side of the corridor revealed a sleazy smile and echoed, "Brother, you don’t even know about these things? There’s plenty of fun stuff in Japan!"
"Those movie actresses, all sorts of hot springs, the world of anime, they’re all places men yearn for!"
"This time, I plan to find myself a little sister and have a good experience! Bro, how about we do it together?"
Ye Ming slightly furrowed his brow, appearing somewhat helpless because he had already felt Xu Lele’s gaze on him.
"Oh, I don’t need those things. I’m not really interested!" Ye Ming quickly said.
The chubby young man gave him a knowing smile, then added, "I advise you to try something new, after all, coming all this distance and doing nothing would leave you regretting it later!"
"Of course, I’ve also heard that there are a lot of hot springs here. Those coed bathing ones are the perfect place, I suggest you bring your girlfriend to try it out!"
At these words, Xu Lele’s face turned red.
She didn’t know much about Japan usually, and this was the first time she had heard that such things existed, so she hurriedly coughed.
Ye Ming’s own face turned red as well, not expecting the guy to dare say anything, and suddenly felt a bit at a loss.
Fortunately, at this moment, the flight attendant came by to remind them to fasten their seat belts, interrupting the chubby young man’s speech.
Following that, he chuckled, handed Ye Ming a business card, and said, "Since we’re all traveling together, let’s get acquainted with each other. If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can ask me anytime!"
"And!" the chubby man lowered his voice and whispered to Ye Ming, "If you want to date a movie star, you can contact me too. I can even arrange a film for you if you want!"
...
An hour later, the plane landed at the airport.
Ye Ming walked out of the airport with Xu Lele and saw Xu Xincheng’s figure.
Upon seeing his sister, Xu Xincheng was very happy and hurried over to greet them, asking about their well-being warmly.
As for Ye Ming, he still didn’t show any good expressions.
"Sis, following him must have been quite tiring, right?" Xu Xincheng deliberately said.
Xu Lele smiled and replied, "Not at all, I’ve found it quite enjoyable, and it wasn’t hard."
"Impossible. He must have had you carry all the luggage. You’re not strong, you really shouldn’t tire yourself out!" Xu Xincheng said with conviction.
Despite Xu Lele’s many explanations about how good Ye Ming had been to her, even suggesting Xu Xincheng should start calling Ye Ming brother-in-law,
regrettably, these words didn’t sink in for Xu Xincheng at all. He refused to acknowledge Ye Ming as his sister’s husband and occasionally made sarcastic remarks about Ye Ming.
In response, Ye Ming could only show a bitter smile on his face.
Fortunately, he was already used to it. As a brother-in-law, how could he possibly quarrel with his brother-in-law?
Xu Lele also ran out of options and could only show an apologetic smile to Ye Ming to express her sorry.
As the group headed to the Falcon Squad’s camp, a sensational event that would shake the martial artist world was quietly unfolding.
The Dragon and Tiger Ranking, which was updated once a year, was unveiling at that moment.
The Dragon and Tiger Ranking is something all martial artists pay attention to; it records the rankings of the world’s top one hundred martial artists.
And at this time, Ye Ming’s name was also registered, ranked at the top of the dragon’s list!
