The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms

Chapter 965: Chapter 962: To Become Friends or Not_1

The unwelcome visitor was none other than Jinling Holy Girl.

What was Jinling Holy Girl’s status? Representing the Donghuang Sect, with just a word from her, Zhou Qing would die a hundred times over. He couldn’t possibly turn away someone like her.

The most crucial thing was that Jinling Holy Girl insisted on meeting Yang Chen specifically, and she wouldn’t leave without seeing him!

Left with no choice, Zhou Qing came to Yang Chen’s residence to seek an audience with him.

Yang Chen was well aware that Zhou Qing was waiting outside, and he soon opened the door. He said, “Zhou Qing, how’s it going? Have all the staying guests been taken care of?”

At this point, Yang Chen couldn’t help but feel somewhat guilty.

After all, he wasn’t good at handling these social matters. Dealing with a one day and one night initiation ceremony had already worn him out. If he had to exchange pleasantries with guests for four or five more days, he was afraid he would go insane.

So, he had entrusted this matter to Zhou Qing, who had long been accustomed to such things and took on the task willingly.

By now, several days had passed, and everything should have come to an end.

Zhou Qing couldn’t help but laugh, “Sect Leader, I have sent most of them away, but there is still one person who remains. This person, I’m not able enough to send away, nor do I dare to do so.”

“What do you mean?” Yang Chen asked curiously, “Who is this person that makes you so scared?”

“It’s Jinling Holy Girl!” Zhou Qing immediately replied.

“What? Jinling Holy Girl? Is she, the esteemed Holy Girl of the Donghuang Sect, addicted to staying in our Luosheng Gate? Or, does she plan to brazenly investigate the things left behind by Emperor Bai Wei?” Yang Chen couldn’t help but wonder.

Jinling Holy Girl status shouldn’t allow her to be so brazen, or so he thought.

Sect Leader! Your guess is wrong this time. Jinling Holy Girl doesn’t want the items left by the Great Emperor in our Luosheng Gate, but she wants to meet you! She asked to see you by name!” Zhou Qing said, a helpless laugh.

“What!” Yang Chen was greatly surprised, “You’re not joking with me, are you? Jinling Holy Girl wants to see me? Why does she want to see me? I’ve never met her before.”

Zhou Qing awkwardly said, “Sect Leader, I’m not sure. But in my opinion, it’s best to see her. After all, Jinling Holy Girl is from the Donghuang Sect. It’s best to avoid conflict if possible. Furthermore, she explicitly requested to meet you. It would be improper to decline.”

Yang Chen nodded his head.

Not meeting other people wouldn’t matter much, as his status had changed, and he was now the Sect Leader of Luosheng Gate, not someone everyone could meet. However, the Holy Girl of the Donghuang Sect carried a different meaning.

“You’re right, we better not neglect the Donghuang Sect’s Holy Girl.” Yang Chen sighed helplessly. He wasn’t the kind of person who cared about status, but under the circumstances, it was better to avoid unnecessary troubles.

And so, Yang Chen headed to the Great Hall of the Luosheng Gate.

Jinling Holy Girl had a different status, so she received the best treatment given to only the most esteemed guests. Luosheng Gate pulled out all the stops to entertain her.

Not only did Zhou Qing look after Jinling Holy Girl, but Fu Yunhe did as well.

Fu Yunhe constantly tried to flatter her, speaking endless compliments with the hope of forming a connection with Jinling Holy Girl.

Unfortunately for him, a person like Jinling Holy Girl wouldn’t lack anyone to flatter her. She had seen plenty of people like Fu Yunhe before. Thus, no matter how much Fu Yunhe tried to ingratiate himself, Jinling Holy Girl’s attitude remained unchanged.

This left Fu Yunhe silently cursing, but he was completely helpless.

Finally, when Yang Chen arrived, the usually reserved Jinling Holy Girl’s demeanor suddenly changed.

Jinling Holy Girl’s bright eyes quickly locked onto Yang Chen. After all, he was the person she most wanted to meet today.

“Fu Yunhe, thank you for attending to Holy Maiden. You may leave now.” Yang Chen said.

Could Fu Yunhe’s feelings be cheerful? After he had been attending to her for half a day, Yang Chen came and wanted him to leave? That wouldn’t be so easy! He hoped that Jinling Holy Girl would let him stay since he had put in such hard effort.

Unfortunately, the harsh reality made him realize that Jinling Holy Girl had no intention of keeping him around.

Fu Yunhe had no choice but to awkwardly say, “Yes, Sect Leader!”

Departing after his words, Fu Yunhe left the scene.

Yang Chen sat in the main seat of the Great Hall, pouring tea and personally sending it to Jinling Holy Girl as a show of hospitality. Jinling Holy Girl had seen it all, realizing that sometimes those overly extravagant things could be a bad sign. Plain tea and water would suffice.

Jinling Holy Girl had plenty of fine teas and fresh fruits in front of her but didn’t even taste them, showing her high standards. Now that Yang Chen had presented her with an ordinary cup of tea, she smiled and took a genuine interest.

She spun the cup, opened her pearly teeth, and laughed softly before taking a sip.

“I heard that Holy Maiden wants to see me.” Yang Chen jumped straight to the point.

“Indeed.” Jinling Holy Girl said with a smile.

“I wonder the reason behind Holy Maiden’s visit.” Yang Chen inquired.

Jinling Holy Girl’s red lips quivered slightly, “Do I need a reason to meet Young Master Yang?”

Upon hearing this, Yang Chen pondered for a moment before suddenly asking, “Then may I know Holy Maiden’s name?”

In asking her name, Yang Chen’s intention was clear. If Jinling Holy Girl was here just to tease him or for something else, she wouldn’t tell him her real name. However, if Jinling Holy Girl wanted to be friends with Yang Chen, she would tell him her name.

Sometimes, exchanging names could be the best bridge for communication.

Jinling Holy Girl had experienced all sorts of encounters since childhood. She understood perfectly what Yang Chen meant.

In fact, she admired Yang Chen even more for being young yet not shallow compared to those geniuses who were boastful and easily seen through.

With her red lips parting, Jinling Holy Girl revealed her name, “My name is Ruan Jinling!”

“Ruan Jinling…” Yang Chen stared at Jinling Holy Girl thoughtfully.

“In the future, Young Master Yang can call me Miss Ruan or Miss Jinling, there’s no need to call me Holy Maiden. It sounds too distant. Let’s just treat each other as friends. Of course, that’s if Young Master Yang doesn’t mind.” Ruan Jinling smiled playfully.

How could Yang Chen not understand Ruan Jinling’s intentions now?

Her purpose was clear – she wanted to befriend him.

This made Yang Chen laugh and cry. He had always wanted to keep a low profile, but somehow, he had formed a connection with Jinling Holy Girl. Most importantly, Jinling Holy Girl wanted to be his friend, so he couldn’t reject her.

If he rejected her, wouldn’t he be angering her to death?
