Ye Chen was already far away from the border and was riding a horse on a deserted road.
"Unfamiliar places are trouble!"
Looking around, he couldn't help but curse.
Along the way, he asked many passers-by, but most of them didn't know where the moon viewing platform was.
Even if someone knows, they can only give a rough direction.
So he really has no idea about the specific location of the platform.
"Tap tap tap tap tap..."
Suddenly, a faint sound of horse hoofbeats came into my ears.
"Is anyone coming?"
Ye Chen's mind moved, "Looks like I can ask for directions!"
Sure enough, not long after, there was a puff of dust rising at the end of the road behind us.
In the haze of dust and fog, several fast horses were galloping towards his location.
The distance was getting closer, and he finally saw it clearly!
It's some young people!
There are men and women, all wearing uniform clothes.
However, this group of people seems to be vaguely headed by a woman.
The woman was wearing pink clothes, with a cold expression, sharp eyes, and lips as thin as a line, giving people the illusion that she was not to be approached by strangers.
"Huh? There's someone here?"
"He looks quite handsome!"
"I don't know which young master it is?"
"Even if he is just a commoner, with such a handsome appearance, if I can spend a night alone with him, I would be willing to do so!"
Before Ye Chen stepped forward to ask questions, several of the women actually cast flirtatious glances at Ye Chen and said some shameless words.
Ye Chen didn't care at all, and hurriedly greeted with a smile, "Everyone, can I ask a question?"
"What do you want to ask?"
A woman drove her horse to stop in front of Ye Chen and looked at Ye Chen with careful eyes.
"I would like to ask, where is the moon viewing platform and how far is it from here?"
Ye Chen didn't beat around the bush and got straight to the point.
He was waiting here just to ask for directions.
"Oh? You want to go to the platform too?"
The woman's eyes lit up and she said excitedly: "To be honest, we also happen to be going to watch the platform?"
"Oh? Are you going too?" Ye Chen said with joy.
He was still afraid that these people wouldn't know, but he didn't expect to go to the platform to watch. He just asked the right person.
"good!"
The woman nodded, "We are disciples of Yan Huifeng. I heard that a grand hero selection meeting will be held on the viewing platform in a few days. We want to join in the fun!"
"Disciple of Yan Huifeng?"
Ye Chen looked a little embarrassed, "Sorry, I'm so ignorant, I've never heard of it!"
"You haven't even heard of us, Yan Huifeng?"
While the woman was disappointed, her eyes looking at Ye Chen were also filled with contempt.
Although they, Yan Huifeng, are not a big force, they are known to everyone in the nearby area.
I have never heard of this handsome and handsome young man.
One can imagine how ignorant and ignorant this person is.
"I'm sorry, it's my first time to join the world, and I don't know much about the big names and forces around me. Please forgive me!" Ye Chen said politely.
He said this naturally because he didn't want people to know that he was from Haoshan.
After all, the purpose of this selection at the viewing platform is to select a group of young elites to go and conquer Haoshan.
If he took the initiative to speak out, wouldn't he immediately become the target of public criticism?
"So he's just a young boy just starting out?"
The woman was not surprised but happy, and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, sister, I like a simple young man like you!"
Seemingly having a favorable impression of Ye Chen, the woman introduced herself: "By the way, my name is Leng Qingfu, what about you?"
"I'm Ye Chen!" Ye Chen also hurriedly said his name.
"Ye Chen, right? This name... seems very common!"
Leng Qingfu muttered and then said: "You just asked about the viewing platform, do you also want to join in the hero selection meeting?"
"Uh... I guess!" Ye Chen nodded, noncommittal.
He originally wanted to talk about getting the Hero Order.
But then I thought, since the other party doesn’t know, there is no need to tell him, otherwise it will appear that he is showing off.
Furthermore, hiding one's true trump card in front of strangers is already the most common way to save one's life.
"What a coincidence!"
Leng Qingfu smiled gently, "Isn't that coincident?"
She stared at Ye Chen with burning eyes, with a "wolf"-like enthusiasm in her beautiful eyes, "Why don't you come with us? You are on the road alone. You don't know where the moon viewing platform is. If you encounter any bandits on the road,
Bandits are very dangerous, follow us, at least we can provide you with some protection!"
"That would be great!" Ye Chen agreed happily.
But the woman in the lead scolded, "Qingfu, what are you doing?"
"Sister Xiang, he is all alone, let him go on the road with us, please!" Leng Qingfu begged.
At the same time, she also pointed to the woman named the leader and introduced to Ye Chen: "By the way, let me introduce to you, this is our chief disciple of Yan Hui Peak, Shuang Ning!"
"Hello, Miss Shuang!" Ye Chen immediately cast a kind look.
But Shuang Ning didn't show any pretense and coldly snorted: "Your name is Ye Chen, right?"
"Yes!" Ye Chen nodded.
"What sect do you come from, and what level of cultivation have you reached?"
"Uh...I have no sect, I am a casual cultivator. As for my cultivation level...this is personal privacy, can I not tell it?" Ye Chen said with a bitter smile.
"Is there no family or sect?"
A flash of disdain flashed in Shuang Ning's eyes.
Any young hero with some ability must come from a famous family.
A person with no family or sect, no wonder she has never even heard of his name.
Thinking of this, she withdrew her gaze, no longer looked at Ye Chen, and said coldly: "I am not interested in your details, but since my junior sister thinks so highly of you, it is not impossible to want you to travel with us.
But I have a condition!"
"Girl, please tell me!" Ye Chen was still very polite.
"I can understand your low cultivation level, but if you want to get our protection, you must be self-aware!"
"What kind of self-knowledge?" Ye Chen was startled.
"You must obey our instructions unconditionally along the way!"
Shuang Ning glanced at Ye Chen and said in a commanding tone: "Besides, if we encounter danger, not only can you not hold us back, you will also sacrifice for us when necessary!"
"This... is okay too!"
Ye Chen only hesitated slightly before agreeing.
All he wants is to get to the platform as soon as possible.
As for what these people think of him, he doesn't care at all.
After all, to him, these Yanhuifeng disciples were just a group of passers-by.
"Since you have no objection, let's get on the road!"
As if she was too lazy to talk to Ye Chen, Shuang Ning waved her hand and signaled everyone to continue on their way.
Originally, she was a little attracted to a handsome man like Ye Chen, but after seeing Ye Chen being so submissive, her remaining goodwill disappeared.
If it were a man with backbone, courage, and strength, how would he obey these women like this?
Therefore, just based on the conversation with Ye Chen just now, she can be sure that apart from his handsome appearance, Ye Chen is just a useless and unknown little person.
