"Come on, everyone, let’s toast together!" Ye Luo held up his glass and looked at the women around him, feeling an incomparable sense of happiness at this moment.

Surrounded by beauties, what more could one ask for in life!

The dinner went on for a long time, with the women chatting and eating. However, Ling Qingya, perhaps due to her recent arrival or concerns about her status and personality, spoke very little.

On the other hand, Han Mengxi was very outgoing, laughing and joking with Lin Xiaoyan, Miao Xiaoling, and a few other girls, making the atmosphere extremely lively. In such a joyous and harmonious atmosphere, everyone felt happy. Even those who initially felt out of place were now completely at ease, feeling a sense of belonging from the bottom of their hearts.

"By the way, I wanted to tell you all that I will be heading to Capital City for a few days tomorrow," Ye Luo suddenly announced to the women.

"You’re leaving again? You really are a busy person!" Yan Ling said lightly. In her heart, she was of course reluctant to part with Ye Luo. He had only been with her for a short while, and now he needed to run off to the distant Capital City, which naturally made her feel a tinge of melancholy. Her sorrowful gaze made Ye Luo dare not look her in the eyes.

"Capital City, is it fun? I want to see it," Miao Xiaoling suddenly exclaimed. She had never been to Capital City despite her age, always hearing that it was the most prosperous and largest city in Huaxia with countless legends.

She had always wanted to visit Capital City but never had the chance. Now that she heard Ye Luo was going, she immediately took interest. After all, with Ye Luo by her side, not only could she freeload food and drinks, but her safety was also guaranteed. At least she wouldn’t have to fear any hooligans or harassment from the noble sons of Capital City.

"I want to go with brother! I’ll also go to Capital City!" Alice promptly spoke up. In her view, it didn’t really matter whether to go to Capital City or not; anywhere would be the same, as long as she could stay with Ye Luo.

At this moment, Luo Jingxuan spoke, "Ye Luo, since you are going to Capital City, why don’t you take them with you? Let them enjoy a good trip to the city."

"Alright," Ye Luo pondered for a moment and nodded, then looked around and asked, "Does anyone else want to go?"

Others, like Yan Ling and Li Wanqin, also yearned to follow, but were too shy to speak up. Besides, they had their own matters to attend to, and couldn’t just leave as they wished. They didn’t hold the same freedom as Ye Luo, and could only look at him wistfully without saying a word.

After some discussion, Ye Luo decided that Alice, Miao Xiaoling, Zi Yun, and Lin Xiaoyan would accompany him to Capital City.

Ye Luo also planned to take Sakura Miko with him; after all, although the four women were all beauties, none of them were Ye Luo’s women, whereas Sakura Miko was a suitable companion.

After dinner, Mei Lun and Mei Ya began to clean up. These two young wives, despite being Semi-Saint masters, followed the customs of Island Country: it’s the women’s role to manage household duties while men work outside. If a man had to do housework upon returning home, it meant the women were not performing their duties.

Therefore, they were quite adept at handling household chores. With these three women, not only could they take care of the home, but they could also serve as bodyguards, which was indeed a nice arrangement.

Then, Ye Luo headed to a villa next door, where Lightning Monkey, a wild bear, and Feng Tian stayed.

"You three got to know each other, right?" Ye Luo asked them.

"Young Master, where did you find such a freak? Just his aura alone makes me feel afraid," Lightning Monkey said.

Ye Luo smiled; they probably didn’t know that Feng Tian was a Ninth Level expert of the Saint Realm.

"Lightning Monkey, Crazy Bear, from now on you two will live here and protect the safety of the ladies," Ye Luo said directly. With these two men guarding the place, ordinary figures simply wouldn’t be able to approach the villa, and Ye Luo could leave with much more peace of mind.

"Yes, Young Master," Lightning Monkey and Crazy Bear both nodded and patted their chests, "As long as we’re not dead, we’ll not let anyone set foot in the yard!" 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

"As for Feng Tian, you follow me. Tomorrow you’ll come with me to the Capital City," Ye Luo’s gaze shifted to Feng Tian. Having such a nine-tiered expert of the Saint Realm by his side would certainly make things much safer.

Feng Tian didn’t say anything, just nodded.

"It seems I should bring Xue Tu and his sister here too," Ye Luo suddenly thought. Now that there were enough houses here, it was perfect for Xue Tu and his sister to move in together.

With Xue Tu, a fifth-level expert of the Saint Realm, Ye Luo would feel a lot more at ease. Plus, Hei Zi and Hu Zi could also live here, adding a force; he wanted to make this place his stronghold, allowing no one to invade.

In the deep silence of the night, Ye Luo lay in his own room, and then the door opened—Yan Ling’s figure darted in.

When Ye Luo came out of the room, he saw Mei Lun and Mei Ya standing hesitantly at the door, their faces wearing a pleading look.

Ye Luo glanced at them and said indifferently, "If you have something to say, say it. But let’s get one thing straight—I’ve never been fond of you people from the Island Country. If you want something, you’ll have to pay for it. I won’t be inclined to help you at all."

Mei Lun and Mei Ya exchanged a look, then said, "We just hope the master will be a bit kinder to the young lady. She has been sheltered since childhood and now suddenly faces such a huge change; she really needs someone to care for her."

"She attempted to assassinate you before because she had no other choice. We ask for the master’s forgiveness. As long as the master treats the young lady well, we are willing to do anything," they continued.

"The two of you are certainly loyal to Sakura Miko, willing to sacrifice yourselves for her," Ye Luo couldn’t help saying.

"Both our families were killed by enemies, leaving us orphans. It was the young lady’s mother who saved us, taught us martial arts, and helped us avenge our families. Now that the young lady’s mother is dead, the young lady is the person we care about the most. For her, we are willing to do anything, and moreover..."

They hesitated toward the end, their expressions shy and blush creeping up their faces.

"And moreover, you’ve already started to enjoy being with me!" Ye Luo teased with a playful smile on his lips. Both women blushed; though they were women in their thirties, they still blushed like shy young girls when embarrassed.

In the end, Ye Luo went back to sleep and slept until the next day when he was woken up by a call from Mingyue.

Taking the five women along with Feng Tian, Ye Luo headed for the airport. When Mingyue saw Ye Luo bringing such a group of women, she was taken aback.

"How come you’re bringing so many beauties to the Capital City?" she asked.

"They are all my friends; they have never been to the Capital City, so I’m taking them to have some fun," he replied.

"Isn’t this the one from Sakura Ryuu?" Mingyue’s eyes locked onto Sakura Miko, clad in black, surprised.
