Chapter 341 - 128: Nangong Ba 2
"You are... Dongfang Yao?"
The young man looked at Dongfang Yao, a surprised expression on his face.
Dongfang Yao looked at the young man, studying him for a moment before frowning.
"What, you don’t remember me? Here’s a hint: Brother Ba."
The young man said with a smile, looking at Dongfang Yao.
Hearing this hint, Dongfang Yao seemed to recall something. She looked at him in disbelief. "You... you’re Nangong Ba?"
The young man laughed. "Haha, so you do remember me."
"Nangong Ba?"
Hearing the name Dongfang Yao spoke, Chen Yu looked at her in surprise.
’Nangong...’
’Could this be from one of the super families on par with the Dongfang family?!’
"You two know each other?"
Chen Yu looked at Dongfang Yao, stunned.
Dongfang Yao nodded, a brilliant smile spreading across her face. "Mhm, we do. We used to play together as kids, but it’s been seven or eight years since we’ve seen each other."
’What a coincidence...’ Hearing Dongfang Yao’s explanation, Chen Yu was inwardly stunned.
’This is a little too coincidental!’
"Xiaoyao, it’s been so long. You’ve grown into a fine young woman. Not bad," Nangong Ba said, smiling at her.
Dongfang Yao’s pretty face flushed, and she lowered her head. "Oh, stop... Brother Ba, don’t tease me."
"HAHAHAHA, you silly girl. You’re still as shy as you were when we were little," Nangong Ba roared with laughter.
As Dongfang Yao blushed, Chen Yu relaxed.
’Since they know each other, there won’t be a fight.’
Even with his current strength, Chen Yu wasn’t very confident he could take on this Nangong Ba.
A Ninth Level Peak, and he possessed a supreme power like Dongfang Yao’s... his strength couldn’t be measured by normal standards.
"Brother Ba, let me introduce you. This is my good friend, Chen Yu. He’s an Ancestral Star Person."
"Brother Yu, this is the strongest genius of the Nangong Clan, Nangong Ba."
Dongfang Yao made the introductions.
When Nangong Ba heard how Dongfang Yao addressed Chen Yu, he faltered for a second but quickly regained his composure.
"Hello," Chen Yu nodded.
Nangong Ba gave a slight nod in return, a silent greeting.
"Brother Ba, did you stumble upon this place by chance?" Dongfang Yao asked Nangong Ba.
Nangong Ba shook his head. "No. Someone sent a message saying there was a top-tier Star Spring here, so I came to take a look."
As he spoke, Nangong Ba glanced over the entire Star Spring lake. "Seems they were right. This scale is indeed top-tier."
’He came because of a message!’
Dongfang Yao and Chen Yu exchanged a glance, both frowning.
Instinctively, the images of three figures appeared in their minds.
"What’s wrong? Is there a problem?" Nangong Ba asked, noticing their odd expressions.
Dongfang Yao looked at Nangong Ba and waved her hand. Her Qi flared, conjuring three lifelike figures before them.
"Brother Ba, was it them?" Dongfang Yao asked.
"Hm?"
Nangong Ba’s gaze sharpened as he looked at the three figures formed from Qi.
After a long moment, he nodded. "It was one of them."
"I knew it..."
"They were trying to use you to do their dirty work!"
Dongfang Yao’s expression darkened.
Hearing this, Nangong Ba frowned. "Xiaoyao, what do you mean by that?"
Dongfang Yao looked at Nangong Ba and briefly explained the situation.
When he heard that Chen Yu had dealt with the three of them, a strange light flashed in his eyes, and his gaze lingered on Chen Yu for a few seconds.
After hearing the gist of the situation, Nangong Ba understood immediately.
"I see," Nangong Ba said, looking at her. "However, Xiaoyao, their identities are a bit troublesome. I’m afraid it would be difficult for me to help you deal with them."
Dongfang Yao smiled. "It’s fine. With Brother Yu here, if they dare to come back, we’ll just keep beating them up."
"They’re already here," Chen Yu said suddenly, his gaze shifting to a direction in the distance.
Nangong Ba and Dongfang Yao looked in the same direction at once.
"Where? I don’t see them," Dongfang Yao said, blinking.
"They’re hiding in the Mirror Space." Nangong Ba spoke, then glanced at Chen Yu again. "Brother Chen, your skills are quite impressive!"
Chen Yu smiled. "Just a few minor tricks."
Nangong Ba gave him a deep look, then turned back to Dongfang Yao. "While I can’t get rid of them for you, making them apologize is no problem at all."
The moment he finished speaking, Nangong Ba raised a hand and spread his fingers. In the next second, ten kilometers away, a section of space trembled, and three figures were instantly forced out.
A terrifying force swept over, and in an instant, the three figures were brought before Chen Yu and the others.
"!!!"
Chen Yu’s heart pounded as he witnessed this scene.
’Shattering Mirror Space-Time from a distance to instantly capture three Level Nines, one of whom is a Late-stage Nine... His power is even greater than I had imagined.’
"N-Nangong Ba, what are you doing!"
The three of them looked at Nangong Ba, their faces pale and their eyes filled with intense fear.
Nangong Ba was calm and composed as he looked at them. "What am I doing? You offended my little sister. What do you *think* I’m doing?"
"This... this is a misunderstanding," the blond, blue-eyed young man said.
"A misunderstanding...? Heh. Was trying to use me also a misunderstanding?" Nangong Ba’s gaze was ice-cold as he gave them a smile that didn’t reach his eyes.
"No... we absolutely didn’t mean that," the three of them immediately stammered, shaking their heads.
"Apologize. Now. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee you’ll leave the Star Realm alive," Nangong Ba said coldly.
Hearing this, the three turned to Chen Yu and Dongfang Yao and immediately bowed in apology.
"Get lost. If I ever find you plotting against my little sister again, then you can just wait for someone to collect your corpses."
Sweat poured down their faces like rain. They nodded and scrambled to fly away.
