After leaving the Soto Grand Arena, Ye Liangchen and Zhu Zhuqing walked towards the street where the Rose Hotel was located.
"Chen Ge, you're really amazing. We didn't lose a single bet today."
Zhu Zhuqing's face was beaming with a sweet smile, feeling very happy. Ye Liangchen had directly given her 80,000 gold coins this time. If she found a place to live in seclusion and was a bit frugal, it would be enough for a lifetime.
When she escaped from the Zhu family, she only brought a few hundred gold coins, which her aunt had given her. Since meeting Ye Liangchen, her Life had taken off.
"Zhuqing, money is external. Don't worry too much about it. As Spirit Masters, improving our cultivation is the most important thing."
The money Ye Liangchen won today was all obtained by cheating, so he didn't care much about such easily gained money.
"I understand, Chen Ge, let's go quickly."
Zhu Zhuqing looked at Ye Liangchen's nonchalant demeanor and knew that he didn't care about money; he had earned it all for her today. Thinking of this, Zhu Zhuqing felt very sweet in her heart. She took Ye Liangchen's hand and walked forward.
It was late now, and there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the street. The streetlights on both sides cast faint light, illuminating the streets.
"Ah...! Help...!"
Just as Ye Liangchen and Zhu Zhuqing walked into a street, a woman's cry for help suddenly came from an alley ahead, but the sound quickly disappeared.
"Chen Ge, that woman's voice sounds like Xiao Rou, a staff member from the Douhun Arena."
Zhu Zhuqing had excellent hearing and immediately recognized the owner of the voice, as she had met that beautiful staff member today.
"Let's go save her."
Ye Liangchen quickly rushed towards the alley with Zhu Zhuqing. His divine sense spread out, and he quickly found three figures in a corner, and the beautiful staff member had already fainted.
"Zhuqing, over there."
Ye Liangchen quickly rushed in the direction sensed by his divine sense, and Zhu Zhuqing followed closely behind him.
Half a minute later, the two rushed into a dead-end alley and found three lewd men about to strip Xiao Rou's clothes.
"Let her go."
Zhu Zhuqing shouted, directly activating her Spirit and charging forward.
"Hehehehe...! I didn't expect such a beautiful girl to come."
"Bule, Tianya, this is a cat-eared girl! She's a stunner!"
"Huh! Why is there still a man?"
"Lao E, Tianya, that man is also a Spirit Master. Kill him, and I'll take care of the cat-eared girl."
These three were the three lewd scoundrels of Soto City: Bule, Tianya, and E Kao. All three were Spirit Masters. Among them, Bule's spirit power reached level 46, and his Spirit was a pair of strange pink covers. Tianya's Spirit was a cleaver, and his spirit power was as high as level 51. E Kao's Spirit was a strange goose, and he had also reached the Spirit Ancestor realm.
The three often engaged in petty thievery and kidnapping of innocent women in Soto City, committing all sorts of evil deeds, earning them the infamous name of the Three Lewd Scoundrels of Soto City.
Bule's face was very thin and long, like a skeleton, with green light in his eyes, incredibly lewd. E Kao was even uglier, with a rooster comb on his head, and his eyes were swollen. One was uglier than the next. The other short man wearing a hat looked relatively normal, but his eyes also glowed green.
At this moment, the three had already activated their Spirits. Tianya had one white, one yellow, and three purple spirit rings shining on his body, holding a green cleaver.
After E Kao activated his Spirit, his arms were covered in goose feathers, his mouth turned into a goose beak, and there were many swollen areas around his eyes. Coupled with the rooster comb on his head, he looked like a lion-headed goose. His spirit ring configuration was also white, yellow, purple, and purple. Bule had a pair of pink covers on his head, resembling certain items used by women, and his spirit rings were the same as E Kao's.
At this moment, Tianya and E Kao walked towards Ye Liangchen, while Bule pounced on Zhu Zhuqing.
"Hehehe...! Kid, you've ruined our fun. Go to hell!"
Tianya and E Kao saw that Ye Liangchen hadn't even activated his Spirit and thought he must have been scared silly.
"Xiao Maomi! Big brother is coming."
Bule saw Zhu Zhuqing's cat-eared appearance, and a surge of heat rushed from his body straight to his head. His small, green-bean-like eyes glowed green, and drool continuously flowed from the corners of his mouth, like a wolf encountering a lamb.
"Zhuqing, be careful."
Ye Liangchen saw that Tianya, holding a cleaver, was actually a Spirit King, so he didn't plan to get entangled in a fight. If they fought, it would alarm the patrol guards.
So, he instantly took out the King of Chicken Dinners HK416 and shot at the opponent with lightning speed.
The King of Chicken Dinners' safety was always off. Ye Liangchen's shooting skills were also becoming more and more refined. He completed a double kill within one second. At such a fast speed, Tianya and E Kao hadn't even reacted before they were hit.
After Ye Liangchen dealt with the two guys, he quickly put away the King of Chicken Dinners and took out a long sword to make it look like he was using it.
"Pfft... Pfft..."
"Ah... Ah..."
With two faint sounds, Tianya and Lao E instantly fell, with a large hole in their hearts, dying instantly.
The sudden change also startled Bule, who was about to lay his hands on Zhu Zhuqing.
"Lao E... Tianya..."
Seeing his two companions fall instantly, Bule was greatly alarmed and immediately rushed over to check on them.
"Kid, you're seeking death."
Bule saw that his two companions had no breath, and his green-bean-like eyes stared fixedly at Ye Liangchen. He roared with rage and activated his Spirit Ability to attack Ye Liangchen.
"Death Shroud."
"Swish swish..."
Ye Liangchen stepped on the Five Elements Mysterious Steps, dodging Bule's first Spirit Ability attack.
"Zhuqing, go save Xiao Rou quickly."
"Okay, Chen Ge."
Ye Liangchen shouted at Zhu Zhuqing, then summoned the Pure鈞 Sword, stepped on the Five Elements Mysterious Steps, and charged towards Bule.
"Swish swish swish..."
Ye Liangchen's sudden attack made Bule feel danger, and he immediately retreated a few steps.
"Heavenly Net Double Covers."
Two huge pink covers pressed down on Ye Liangchen, emitting pink mist that also contained a confusing aura, while Bule himself was hidden within the mist.
The Heavenly Net Double Covers Spirit Ability was an illusionary skill that could confuse opponents.
"Hehehehe...! Kid, you've fallen for my Heavenly Net Double Covers Spirit Ability. You're dead for sure. I'm going to avenge my two companions and also enjoy that cat-eared girl."
In the mist, Bule's lewd voice echoed, feeling that victory was already in his grasp.
"Swish..."
"Breaking Delusion Divine Light."
Ye Liangchen's eyes shot out a golden light, instantly breaking Bule's Heavenly Net Double Covers.
"Crack..."
The two huge covers shattered directly, and the pink mist also disappeared.
"What?" Bule's Spirit Ability was broken, and he was immediately startled, retreating continuously.
"Heaven Splitting Cross Slash."
Ye Liangchen activated his left arm Spirit Bone, testing the power of this Ten-Thousand Year Spirit Bone. He had absorbed this Spirit Bone for so long and hadn't tried it yet; he had almost forgotten about it.
"Swish swish swish..."
Ye Liangchen's left arm unleashed several cross blades, carrying powerful force, and slashed towards Bule.
"Bang bang..."
"Ah... no..."
Facing a Ten-Thousand Year Spirit Bone attack, Bule's level 46 spirit power simply couldn't block it. He was directly cut into several pieces.
"Chen Ge..."
Zhu Zhuqing, from a distance, breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Bule killed.
Coming to Zhu Zhuqing's side, Ye Liangchen found that Xiao Rou was still unconscious, so he reached out and injected spirit power into several acupoints on her body. After a while, Xiao Rou slowly woke up.
"Ah! You saved me."
Xiao Rou found herself lying in Zhu Zhuqing's arms, then saw the bodies of three men in the distance, and immediately understood.
"Let's leave quickly, the patrol guards will be here soon."
Ye Liangchen gave Xiao Rou a Soul Power Pill to replenish her stamina. What had happened before had almost scared her silly, and she felt weak all over.
The two took Xiao Rou and quickly left the small alley. Just ten minutes after they left, some nearby residents brought a team of patrol guards to the alley and found three bodies, one of which was cut into several pieces.
"Huh! Isn't this the three lewd scoundrels our captain has been looking for for many days? I didn't expect these three bastards to be killed."
"I wonder which hero did it? It saves our patrol team a lot of trouble."
A group of patrol guards quickly took out bags and packed up the bodies of the three lewd scoundrels. Their movements were very skilled, clearly indicating that they often did this kind of work.
...
After leaving the alley, Xiao Rou respectfully bowed to Ye Liangchen and Zhu Zhuqing: "Thank you, benefactor and young lady, for saving me."
"You're welcome. Where do you live? We'll take you home."
It was late at night, and Ye Liangchen and Zhu Zhuqing were not at ease letting the woman walk alone on the street, so they directly escorted her home.
"Thank you, I'm Xiao Rou, and I live on Street 9..."
Xiao Rou told them where she lived, thinking how lucky she was today. If it weren't for these two benefactors, she might have been defiled by the three lewd scoundrels, or even been in Life-threatening danger.
"Xiao Rou, you must not tell anyone about us getting rid of the three villains. Remember to keep it a secret for us."
Ye Liangchen warned her a few times. After all, with the three scoundrels dead, the patrol guards of Soto City would discover it sooner or later.
"Benefactor, don't worry! Xiao Rou won't say anything."
"Those three looked like the three lewd scoundrels Manager Ao mentioned. They often commit petty thievery, kidnap innocent women, and commit all sorts of evil deeds. They are notorious. Benefactor, by eliminating them, you have truly rid the people of a menace."
Xiao Rou also told them about the three scoundrels' crimes, which greatly angered Zhu Zhuqing.
"Why don't the officers arrest such bad people?"
Xiao Rou shook her head: "They are all Spirit Masters. They hide during the day and come out at night, making it difficult for officers to find them."
The three walked for half an hour, making many turns, and finally arrived at Street 9. The houses here were not very luxurious. Xiao Rou's place was a two-story small building, and it was rented.
She came from a small village on the outskirts of Soto City. To make her work more convenient, she rented a small building on this street. When she saved enough money, she could buy a luxurious house in the center of Soto City.
Xiao Rou told Ye Liangchen and Zhu Zhuqing her dream, a sunny smile on her face.
"May you realize your dream soon! We'll be going now."
"Benefactor and young lady, please come to my house for a while so Xiao Rou can express her gratitude."
"No need. You be careful in the future."
Ye Liangchen and Zhu Zhuqing safely escorted the woman home, and after bidding farewell to Xiao Rou, they returned directly to the Rose Hotel.
Watching Ye Liangchen and Zhu Zhuqing disappear at the end of the street, Xiao Rou bowed in the direction they left.
"Benefactor, the 10,000 gold coins you bestowed have already made Xiao Rou's dream come true. Xiao Rou has no way to repay you, but wishes you and that young lady a lifetime of peace and eternal unity."
Ye Liangchen didn't expect to meet a girl fighting for a house in this different World. He also remembered the young people on Blue Star in his previous Life who worked hard for houses, which was truly wonderful.
"Chen Ge, Xiao Rou's dream is only for a luxurious house. What is your dream?"
Zhu Zhuqing tilted her head, her beautiful eyes fixed on Ye Liangchen, asking curiously.
"My dream is to stand at the peak of this World, then change the World and create a World where ordinary people can live with dignity."
Ye Liangchen's gaze looked into the distance, and an aura of absolute dominance erupted, leaving the Xiao Maomi beside him stunned. Her beautiful eyes sparkled with little stars. At this moment, she felt that the young man's figure in front of her was incredibly tall.
"Chen Ge, your dream is truly great. I believe you can do it."
Zhu Zhuqing didn't know why, but she just felt that the young man in front of her could definitely do it.
"Hehe! Xiao Maomi, I was just boasting. You actually believe that."
Looking at Zhu Zhuqing, who had already become a fangirl, Ye Liangchen was speechless. This girl had completely fallen for him.
"Chen Ge, a woman's intuition tells me you can definitely do it."
"What woman? You're just a girl now."
"Chen Ge, you're so mean! You're just a boy too!"
The two chatted happily while rushing towards the Rose Hotel, leaving two beautiful shadows under the faint lamplight.
