'What a beauty! No one I've seen until now can even hold a candle to her.'
Looking towards the woman who jumped down a tree's branch, Yang Shen despite being better at controlling his emotions after a month of tempering inside the forest couldn't help but show naked lust in his eyes.
After all, the woman wasn't just very beautiful, but she even had a ripe body which stimulated the instinct of all men.
Beautiful long black hair that flowed until her hip, a pair of sparkly blue eyes, and luscious red lips decorated her face.
Moving down, the woman was dressed in a tight sleeveless violet robe that further made her seem more like a valiant hero rather than a beautiful lady.
Especially when coupled with the twin swords that hung from the sash tied around her waist, and the way her robes stuck to her skin and showed off her voluptuous curves, the woman was all in all the most beautiful woman Yang Shen had seen until now.
Gulping a little as the woman crossed her milky white arms in front of her chest and squished her huge perky breasts in the progress, Yang Shen did his best to control his emotions so that he wouldn't look like a dumb admirer.
However, to someone like Liu Bingqing, how could she have not have noticed the primal lust in Yang Shen's eyes.
With the corner of her lips lifting upwards unintentionally, Bingqing who couldn't remember the last time someone dared to look at her like that found herself more interested in this random boy she saved due to thinking it would be a pity for someone like him to die at such a young age.
Not drooling like a fool, which he would have done if he had met this woman a month back, Yang Shen smiled and asked, "Did it hurt coming down here, big sister?"
"Huh? What hurt?"
"Heaven is so far away, so I thought that an angel falling from there would get hurt."
Hearing those words, Bingqing herself was shocked for a while, but other than her almost everyone around her were similarly shocked as well.
'What a glib tongue!'
"Hahahahaha, your words are just as pleasing as your appearance."
Laughing happily, Bingqing who couldn't remember the last time someone complimented her felt more pleased that she saved him.
At the same time, she understood that the one in front of her was not the descendant of some strong clan like she had first expected him to be.
After all, the perks which came with her job ensured that no one would dare try and get close to her.
"Not at all. It's you who is very beautiful, big sister."
Waving her hand and telling Yang Shen to stop with the flattery, the woman began inquiring about him.
Starting from who drew that dragon on his neck, which was so lifelike that it seemed the artist had seen one from close distance, to where he was from, what he was doing inside the forest all alone and so on.
Answering all of the questions with part truth and part lie, Yang Shen made sure to not reveal any sensitive information about him since he had no idea whom the one he was talking to was.
Smiling on the inside, Bingqing could easily tell that Yang Shen wasn't being honest with her. But she didn't mind this and continued conversing with the boy who wouldn't miss any opportunity to compliment her.
"Is beautiful big sister the one who saved me?"
Having spotted Yang Shen looking towards the palanquin from the corner of his eyes as he asked her that question, Bingqing said, "Yes, it was me. Are you disappointed that it wasn't my lady who saved you, little brother?"
Shaking his head while hiding his disappointment since he wanted to find out who the woman inside the palanquin was, Yang Shen smoothly asked, "Who's your lady, sister angel?"
"My lady's…. Hahahahahah…. Did you just almost manipulate me into revealing my lady's identity?"
Speaking with extreme candour, Bingqing didn't seem offended in the slightest as she laughed Yang Shen's words off and added, "Seems like I'll need to be more careful around you."
At the same time, a soft melodious chuckle came from inside the palanquin. And following it, a gentle yet full of authority voice arrived that had Yang Shen mesmerized from just the sound of it.
"If you want to see me, all you need to do is pull the curtains open."
Despite hearing those words, Yang Shen didn't show any intention of doing so.
Seeing this, Bingqing secretly nodded her head inside.
If Yang Shen had opened the curtains, her lady would have made it so that he would have to swear eternal loyalty to her, or die.
"Come with me. Us staying here will only disturb my lady."
Nodding his head, Yang Shen quickly followed Bingqing.
…
"Do you want a change of clothes?"
Looking towards his tattered robes which barely concealed his battered body and his Ice Snake Armor which was on the verge of being destroyed after how many times it saved him from sure death situations, Yang Shen nodded his head and said, "Definitely."
"Hmmm… I've only got training clothes, so you'll have to make do with them."
Handing Yang Shen a pant and sleeveless shirt, Bingqing made it obvious that she had a spatial treasure on him.
Seeing this, Yang Shen was reminded of what his 'Lucky Star' did.
If he wasn't wrong, his lucky star must have thought that he possessed a spatial treasure when she sent him inside that Spirit Stones mine that the Hao Clan discovered.
Hopefully, he wasn't wrong. Because being wrong meant that she knew about the system due to his constant blabbering and he couldn't afford such a thing happening despite her having helped him.
