But facing "The Number One Bed in the World," Ye Fan didn''t mind giving it a try!
"Alright then!"
With a devilishly charming smile, Ye Fan wrapped his arms around Chu Lanwei, lightly tapped his ankle on the ground, and his body shot out dozens of meters away, landing precisely on a huge rock amidst the wildflowers!
"Young Master Ye, what are the conditions to be your woman?" As Chu Lanwei spoke seductively, the sleeve of her dress slipped down her shoulder, revealing her fair collarbone and half of a smooth shoulder.
With alluring eyes, a delicate figure, plus the twisting slender waist under the sheer dress... combined with her red lips and white teeth in a ready-to-taste pose, Chu Lanwei was one beckoning gesture away from hooking Ye Fan''s soul completely!
Such temptation was lethal for a man!
Purity of a young girl, the charm of maturity, plus desire...
To say Ye Fan wasn''t moved would be a lie!
"Princess Consort, haven''t we strayed from the topic? Patriarch Xia said you came to Flower Capital to seek my treatment. Let me take your pulse first!" Although Ye Fan''s heart was agitated, with the Inheritance''s suppression, everything was still within a controllable range.
They say beautiful women are a source of trouble!
As "The Number One Bed in the World," Chu Lanwei indeed held an absolute allure over thousands of men, but Ye Fan still needed to clarify what exactly she came for!
If it was just for treatment, Chu Lanwei wouldn''t have made such a huge sacrifice.
Ever since he stepped into the Xia Family''s courtyard, Chu Lanwei had been constantly displaying her charm!
Does she really think I''m a man who acts solely based on desire?
While speaking, Ye Fan grabbed Chu Lanwei''s wrist, his powerful Perception seeping into her skin, carefully feeling her pulse and the Vitality Force within her body!
Hmm?
All the data is too normal!
Furthermore, Ye Fan even discovered a very intense concentration of Vitality Force in Chu Lanwei''s body!
That kind of Vitality Force, different from what''s inside a normal creature, was at least ten times denser... Ye Fan merely touched it and felt that Vitality Force enter his body through his arm.
While Zhao Cheng was alive, protected by him as a prince, Chu Lanwei could live in peace.
But after Zhao Cheng''s death, Chu Lanwei was like a dazzling treasure that everyone wanted to possess and defile.
Against ordinary riffraff and the Princess Consort''s capable old subordinates, she could easily deal with them, what with her status still intact.
But she was powerless against high-ranking big shots, like Prince Jin, revered as the greatest Virtuous King in Great Xia. His influence in Great Xia was tremendous, considered by the outside world as a representation of the royal family''s iron-blooded hawkish faction, even more sharply in focus than the current ruler.
Thus, Chu Lanwei needed to find a man she could rely on! Her gaze soon settled on Ye Fan, who had seemed foolish five years earlier. From his activities at the Southwest Border to the rumors circulating in the Xuanwu Region, Chu Lanwei was convinced that, even if Ye Fan was in a state of folly, he would one day rise again as a peerless genius.
"This Princess Consort flatters me too much. This is the first time we''ve met, how could I understand what the Princess Consort is thinking?" Seeing that Chu Lanwei wanted to draw closer again, Ye Fan involuntarily took two steps back, maintaining a distance between them.
Alas!
Chu Lanwei cast a resentful glance at Ye Fan, this little nemesis... was she really expected to speak first?
Chu Lanwei was not simply a trophy wife to have been married to Prince Zhao Cheng. She was very clear on one fact: in this contest with Ye Fan, whoever spoke first would be at a disadvantage.
But under the current circumstances, Chu Lanwei had no choice but to open her mouth.
"Young Master Ye, Xiao Lan has come to ask you to seek revenge for the Zhao family... Xiao Lan is willing to serve you like an ox or horse!" After sighing deeply, Chu Lanwei bowed solemnly to Ye Fan and spoke.
Ye Fan smiled faintly. So, Chu Lanwei had finally lowered her head?
But she seemed to think that her beauty alone was sufficient to compel him to offend those in Capital, which greatly underestimated him.
Ye Fan remained silent, just waiting quietly.
With no other option, Chu Lanwei continued, this little nemesis of hers, truly wouldn''t act without a guarantee!
"As a condition, Xiao Lan is willing to be your woman! Moreover, I have something left by Zhao Cheng, a treasure I want to give to you! And thirdly," Chu Lanwei paused, "should Young Master Ye agree to help, all the forces and old subordinates previously under Zhao Cheng in Great Xia will be at your disposal..."
Despite feeling somewhat bashful, Chu Lanwei articulated the three conditions clearly and handed a wooden box to Ye Fan.
Upon opening it, Ye Fan''s eyes sharpened instantly, "A Heavenly Palace Map Fragment?"
So Zhao Cheng also had a piece of the Immortal Palace map, and it was bigger than any Ye Fan had previously acquired!
It appeared that the Heavenly Palace Map Fragment owned by the Ye Family was no secret after all. The major families of Great Xia were probably all collecting these fragments!
Just the map fragment alone was enough to warrant Ye Fan''s action. Yet, he didn''t rush to agree, "But I heard that the prince died from a heart attack, so why talk of revenge?"
Pouting at Ye Fan, Chu Lanwei chided, "Young Master Ye, you really are wicked! Knowing everything already, you just wait for others to say it... Zhao Cheng didn''t die from a sudden heart attack; he was assassinated! And the one who assassinated Zhao Cheng was none other than his own brother, known as the Virtuous King, Prince Jin... Furthermore, Young Master Ye might not be aware that Prince Jin is the mastermind behind the extermination of the Ye Family. Knowing this, would Young Master Ye be willing to help?"
