Embroidered Uniform Guard: I Can Plunder Talents-Chapter 246 - 57: I Have a Man Now? So This Is Love

Chapter 246: Chapter 57: I Have a Man Now? So This Is Love

No way, bro, you’re really flipping out on me over a ’mountain’?

I’d heard from Shi Sheng before, said he liked girls who were a bit more tough and brave.

But I always thought he was just joking, never really took it to heart.

But only now do I realize—

Bro, you actually mean it?

While I was still stunned, the group on the other side already arrived in front of Ye Liuyun and the others.

The woman leading them—

Still had that meteor hammer slung over her shoulder, eyed Ye Liuyun up and down, then waved her hand, bowed with cupped fists and spoke.

"I am Chai Hong, commander of the Vanguard Camp. You must be that young Grandmaster?"

Clearly,

She’d heard of Ye Liuyun’s title as a young Grandmaster, but after sizing him up for a bit, her face turned sour and she shook her head.

"Doesn’t look like much. Skinny and small, doesn’t seem to have any strength at all."

"..."

Who said the higher your cultivation, the bigger your muscles and the tougher you look?

No wonder you look like a freaking bear.

But, commander of the Vanguard Camp?

Say what you will, Chai Hong herself must be fiercely brave and good at fighting, otherwise she wouldn’t hold this position. Ye Liuyun checked with the system; Chai Hong’s cultivation realm is early-stage Innate.

The grade of her Talent Entry isn’t high, but not low either.

"I am Ye Liuyun!"

After watching for a bit, Ye Liuyun didn’t care much, just casually cupped his hands and introduced himself.

But then—

As soon as Ye Liuyun finished introducing himself, Shi Sheng on the side started madly signaling Ye Liuyun with his eyes.

Clearly hoping Ye Liuyun would introduce him too.

Dude, you’re really into this, huh!

Ye Liuyun noticed Shi Sheng’s look, hesitated for a moment, but then went ahead and introduced him.

"This is Shi Sheng, Embroidered Uniform Guard Lord Thousand Households!"

With Ye Liuyun’s intro,

Shi Sheng got all excited and said to Chai Hong,

"Hi, I’m Shi Sheng."

"Mm!"

Chai Hong frowned and nodded.

Seemed a little confused why Ye Liuyun was introducing this guy to her—was there something special?

But after staring at Shi Sheng for a bit, Chai Hong suddenly nodded, satisfied.

"Your build’s not bad!"

Shi Sheng started out practicing Horizontal Training, so his physique was way bulkier than most Martial Artists. Maybe it was the local climate, Shi Sheng still didn’t have Chai Hong’s level of wildness.

But that strong frame made Chai Hong nod for sure.

"Uh... Is that so!"

Hearing Chai Hong say that, Shi Sheng actually looked a little embarrassed.

"It’s all just me messing around with my training."

It sounded kind of awkward, not gonna lie.

But Chai Hong didn’t care, probably just had a straight-forward personality, says whatever’s on her mind, no games or hidden meanings.

Even though the chat was kind of hit-or-miss,

They actually kept talking.

"Tsk!"

This scene—

Made Si Nan do a quick gasp.

"Wait, is this actually happening?"

Bro thought you were joking, but turns out you really dig this type, huh, just can’t say no to anything.

"Could be nice!"

On the other side, Jiang Jing crossed his arms.

He also felt Chai Hong’s figure was, well, a little... different, but since Shi Sheng liked it, it’s not really their business.

Plus,

Chai Hong’s cultivation is obviously solid, teaming up with Shi Sheng could be a good match.

"Uh, what the—"

Si Nan really wanted to say something.

But opened his mouth, and for a long moment, just couldn’t get any words out.

"Now I just hope all the women in Xihe aren’t like this!"

Forget it, Shi Sheng’s business isn’t for me to meddle in.

Just thinking about it—if all Xihe’s women look like this, Si Nan honestly has zero excitement for the upcoming Xihe trip.

...

"You like barbecue too? Let me tell you, I’m awesome at grilling. At noon I’ll make you some."

Chai Hong wasn’t taking this seriously at first, just some casual chat.

But the way Shi Sheng came off so enthusiastic, somehow made Chai Hong a little flustered.

"Uh... sure!"

She nodded, a little hoarse.

The Xihe soldiers behind Chai Hong glanced at each other, all awkward.

Their main job was to meet up with Ye Liuyun’s crew, but these folks were from another Dynasty, coming onto their turf.

They for sure wanted to put on a show, hit them with a bit of attitude.

But now—

Do they even bother?

They exchanged looks, all silent.

"Aren’t we heading out yet?"

Shi Sheng was practically up in her face, so Chai Hong finally held out her hand to push him back, asking.

"Her Highness the Princess says we’re almost at Xihe’s borders, so she needs to fix up her hair and dress up a bit!"

"..."

What’s there to dress up for out here?

Chai Hong was speechless.

But then she thought—

This princess is about to become the Xihe emperor’s consort before long. Though she grumbled to herself, she didn’t say anything out loud.

Finally.

Half an hour later, Yan Huilan finally finished getting ready.

So the journey started again.

Once they officially crossed into Xihe Dynasty’s territory, after walking a bit, you’d spot clusters of buildings, looking kinda like yurts.

And lots of people, looking at Ye Liuyun’s group with curious, probing eyes as they passed.

"Always heard Xihe kids were born on horseback. Seeing it today, guess it’s true!"
