Chapter 17: Unrestrained Yan Ruyu, The Real Dragon Slayer

“I’ve found you!” With everyone around being captivated by Yan Ruyu’s charm, Jiang Chen stood out as the exception.

He blended into the crowd yet stood out, even with his aura hidden. Yan Ruyu, delighted upon spotting Jiang Chen, approached him with a radiant smile, moving gracefully and enchanting everyone around.

“Eh, why is she coming over here? Did she recognize me? It seems unlikely; I’ve hidden my aura well!” thought Jiang Chen.

Yan Ruyu inwardly chuckled upon hearing Jiang Chen’s thoughts. Spotting him amidst the crowd was easy due to his composure. Not knowing how she heard his thoughts but aware of his awareness of her feelings, Yan Ruyu decided to be open.

“This gentleman, I am new to Spirit Snake City and quite unfamiliar with it. Seeing you seem well-acquainted with the city, would you mind showing me around?” she asked with a shy gesture, extending her hand as if wanting Jiang Chen to lead her.

‘Eh, what’s going on with Yan Ruyu? Why is she suddenly approaching me? Has she recognized who I am?’ Jiang Chen was confused, having concealed his identity well.

‘Humph, you hide well, but you didn’t know I could hear your thoughts,’ Yan Ruyu thought, amused by his surprised look.

“I’m not familiar with the area either, miss. Perhaps you should ask someone else,” Jiang Chen replied, his face stiffening.

Now that she knew Jiang Chen was aware of her feelings, Yan Ruyu had completely let go. She was no longer as constrained as she used to be when she encountered Jiang Chen. Before, Yan Ruyu was comfortable with anyone, but she was somewhat restrained with Jiang Chen.

“Miss Yan, who is this?” Azure Dragon God Son, Cang Yun, couldn’t sit still anymore. He fancied Yan Ruyu and viewed her as his own, naturally disliking her interacting with someone else. He was almost infuriated.

He wasn’t as intimate with Yan Ruyu as this ordinary cultivator who had just started talking to her. If it weren’t for maintaining his demeanor, he would have directly disabled Jiang Chen.

“Dragon Slayer! You may call me the Dragon Slayer!” Jiang Chen smiled playfully, saying meaningfully.

As soon as these words were uttered, the atmosphere immediately tensed. It didn’t matter if the name was real or fake. Even if it was fake, saying it in front of Cang Yun was like a blatant provocation. The ground around them started to crack, and the entire void boomed as if it was about to be torn apart.

As expected, Cang Yun’s face darkened, and a terrifying pressure enveloped the room. “You’ve got some nerve! Let’s see if you are worthy of that title,” he said, barely containing his rage.

“Why are you so angry, Brother Cang Yun? It’s just a name,” Jiang Chen said with a smile. “I haven’t actually slain any dragons. Is it just a name that’s making you lose your composure? That’s not a good thing. How would Miss Yan think of you if you act like this?”

Jiang Chen’s words were a moral trap. Cang Yun, being fond of Yan Ruyu and wanting to maintain his dignity, had to suppress his anger.

“Oh, if you can’t hold it in, it’s fine. I could just slay you and truly become the Dragon Slayer. After all, what good is a cultivator who hasn’t slain a dragon?”UpTodated novels at novelhall.com
