The Star Spirit System instructor He Mu, along with the disciples present, was at a loss as to why, given the current situation, Ye Chen still insisted on giving a gift to Vice Dean Meng. What was his true intention?

What exactly was the gift he wanted to give?

To offer a gift and apologize?

Impossible!

If he truly wanted to resolve their enmity, there was no need to fight so fiercely just now.

At that moment,

a deep voice echoed.

"Ye Chen, this dean has no time to deal with you right now. Out of respect for Ouyang Xiaoling, I won't hold this against you today. Leave the Star Spirit System immediately!"

Without showing himself, Meng Changtian chose to speak from a distance.

"Vice Dean Meng, I just learned about Zitao's demise. Please accept my condolences." Ouyang Xiaoling slightly bowed in the direction of the voice.

Since Meng Changtian was unwilling to appear, Ye Chen directly took out the dagger.

The dagger had been corroded, becoming broken and rusty.

"Meng Changtian, take this dagger!"

As his words fell, Ye Chen flung the dagger towards the direction where Meng Changtian's voice had come from.

A fierce wind swept through, suspending the dagger in mid-air.

The power controlling the dagger trembled.

Because the one controlling this power, Meng Changtian, was on the verge of losing his mind and going berserk!

His fists tightly clenched.

The knuckles turned white.

His teeth ground together audibly.

Right now, he wished to dismember Ye Chen on the spot!

Prior to this, it could only be speculated that Ye Chen killed his son, Meng Zitao. But now, Ye Chen returning the dagger confirmed that Meng Zitao was indeed slain by Ye Chen!

However.

Meng Changtian dared not act!

Ouyang Xiaoling was present, and her appearance at this time could possibly be at the behest of Ouyang Shang from behind the scenes.

Perhaps Dean Ouyang Shang had already noticed something.

Endure!

He must endure!

"Whoosh!"

Meng Changtian controlled the power to draw the dagger towards himself, grabbing it with one hand.

"My child, rest assured, your father won't let Ye Chen revel for too long. Your father will use this dagger of yours to slice his flesh piece by piece, and dismantle his bones one by one!"

Meng Changtian muttered to himself with a fierce expression.

Ye Chen had achieved his goal, and with a composed demeanor, he walked through the group of Star Spirit System disciples lying on the ground and left.

Just outside the Star Spirit System's area,

Ouyang Xiaoling's voice sounded from behind Ye Chen.

"Ye Chen, wait for me."

A small trace of awkwardness appeared on Ye Chen's face.

He could maintain his composure when facing opponents who were much stronger than he was.

He could sit and talk amidst blood and corpses after slaying everywhere.

However... he was somewhat at a loss when it came to facing Ouyang Xiaoling.

After all.

He had once knocked her out with the sword hilt.

Although it was Fatty who drew the turtle on her face, Ye Chen felt he was half an accomplice.

"Stay calm, don't give yourself away." Ye Chen silently reminded himself, and then slowed his steps.

Ouyang Xiaoling caught up, stood in front of Ye Chen, and looked at him with curious eyes.

Seeing Ye Chen looking somewhat awkward, nervous, and uneasy,

Ouyang Xiaoling couldn't help but burst into a laugh.

Her laughter was very pleasant.

After all, when Ye Chen had first seen her unconscious after knocking her out, he felt that even if she were standing next to Hua Qianxue, she still had her own charm.

At this moment.

Ouyang Xiaoling was not unconscious, and her eyes were slightly squinted like two crescents, with two small dimples on her cheeks.

Her figure was indisputable.

Almost comparable to Senior Sister Liu Meng'Er.

However, since Ouyang Xiaoling didn't speak, Ye Chen also said nothing, responding to change with constancy.

If Ouyang Xiaoling came to settle accounts because she learned the truth about being knocked out back then... she was, after all, a descendant of Dean Ouyang Shang. Ye Chen thought to himself, if a fight broke out later, he would just knock her out.

As for whether he could win, he hadn't thought about it.

He'd know after trying.

As Ouyang Xiaoling looked at this large, interesting young man's shy expression, she had no idea that he was contemplating how to fight her later.

"Ye Chen, let's formally introduce ourselves. My name is Ouyang Xiaoling, and I'm sort of part of the Spirit Martial System; you might call me Senior Sister." Ouyang Xiaoling continued with a smile: "I originally wanted to learn Elder Yang's Spirit Martial Unity, but I didn't succeed; I can only be considered dual-cultivated in spirit and martial arts. In any case, I'm still Elder Yang's student."

"Mm." Ye Chen nodded woodenly, saying, "Dual cultivation is pretty good."

As for Senior Sister...

He didn't call her that!

If he did, there would be one more obstacle in his mind if they actually fought later, wouldn't there?

Ouyang Xiaoling saw that Ye Chen was really quite restrained and couldn't help but feel a bit proud; her charm must be pretty good to make this fearless boy so nervous.

"Ye Chen, what's the story with that dagger? It can't be that simple, can it? Tell me, I can help you."

Ye Chen shook his head, "It's just purely a gift to Meng Changtian, to offer condolences."

Ouyang Xiaoling naturally didn't believe him.

Who gives gifts and starts fighting at the recipient's door?

Who gives a rusty, broken dagger as a gift?

Just as Ouyang Xiaoling was about to continue probing, a loud voice rang out.

"Junior Brother!"

Yuan Polu, as big as a small mountain, hurried over and shouted: "Junior Brother, you went down the mountain on your own, and you worried your Senior Sister and me. Your Senior Sister went down to find you. I just heard that you're back and you went to the Star Spirit System. What happened? Did anyone from the Star Spirit System do anything to you? If they bullied you, I'll go and hit them now!"

"Senior Brother Yuan," Ouyang Xiaoling, visibly ignored, greeted him, then explained the events with Ye Chen at the Star Spirit System.

Hearing that Ye Chen wasn't bullied, and even gained the upper hand, Yuan Polu chuckled and finally looked at Ouyang Xiaoling, "So it was Xiaoling'Er."

Ouyang Xiaoling: "..."

Even with me standing here like a big, live person, Senior Brother Yuan, you truly didn't see me?

Yuan Polu said, "Xiaoling'Er, I heard that someone bullied you some time ago, and someone drew turtles on your face. Did you find that despicable guy? If you find him, let me know, and I'll go hit him for you!"

Ouyang Xiaoling: "..."

Why bring up such unpleasant things!

"Thank you, Senior Brother Yuan. I've found the person and taught him a lesson, but there seems to be an accomplice that I'm still looking for."

"Mm, Xiaoling'Er, take your time looking; once you find them, I'll help you hit them."

"...," Ye Chen: "Senior Brother, I'm over-exhausted; I'm fainting..."

After saying this, Ye Chen fainted.

Yuan Polu, scared out of his wits, grabbed Ye Chen by the collar to keep him from falling and then looked towards the Star Spirit System direction, shouting loudly: "If anything happens to my Junior Brother, I'll smash your Star Spirit System!"

After saying that, Yuan Polu left, carrying Ye Chen away.

The group of Star Spirit System disciples, who had just been taught a lesson by Ye Chen, were dumbfounded at Yuan Polu's angry roar. Clearly, they were the ones beaten... The Spirit Martial System, too much bullying!

Ouyang Xiaoling watched the direction Yuan Polu left without so much as a goodbye... She was ignored again!

Being carried by the collar and flown through the air, Ye Chen was equally filled with frustration; couldn't Senior Brother treat the wounded better?
