Chapter 235
At this mont, Zhan Qiuyun truly wanted to slap Yang Chen across the face.
She had known all along: if this little scoundrel ever truly respected his master and elders, the sun would rise in the west. After all that talk, all that pretense of innocence, his real goal was still to take advantage of her.
“Hmph! You little scoundrel, I knew you were up to no good! Enough nonsense! Six months from now, you will participate in the Holy Son Competition and claim the position! If you fail, just wait and see how I deal with you!” Zhan Qiuyun glared at him, her tone tinged with frustration.
She was already exhausted and irritated from the Yu Kong Seal ordeal, and yet this little scoundrel still had the nerve to tease her.
Wasn’t it enough that during this ti, every session of absorbing the solar energy from his body ended with them embracing each other? Not to ntion their utterly unreserved monts together in the cave—how much more advantage did he want to take?
“Martial Aunt, does this an you’ve agreed to let experience the feeling of disregarding seniority in advance?” Yang Chen asked playfully from her side, his tone carrying a hint of mischief.
It had been a while since he’d needed to provide Zhan Qiuyun with his Origin Qi, and he found himself nostalgic for that sensation.
“Shut up, you little brat! And you have the gall to even ntion seniority? Do you care about such things at all?” Zhan Qiuyun shot him a sharp glare.
“Martial Aunt, your words wound deeply!” Yang Chen sighed with exaggerated helplessness, his tone suddenly serious: “Martial Aunt, with our relationship, there’s no need for you to even ask. I would spare no effort to help you obtain the Yu Kong Seal! Even if I had no support from the elders, I would still press forward without hesitation!”
These words were half-truths.
If Yu Zun weren’t a protagonist, Yang Chen wouldn’t have bothered with any of this. After all, staying at ho, enjoying hotpot with Chu Xi, and having in-depth discussions about life every night was far more enjoyable.
But with the presence of Yu Zun, an invincible protagonist, Yang Chen naturally had to find a way to siphon his luck.
Moreover, Heaven’s Chosen of the Invincible Path were inherently dangerous. Unlike soone like Xiao Dong, who required a long ti to develop before posing a threat to him as a villain, Yu Zun already had the cultivation of the fourth stage of the Void Refinent Realm and was said to be invincible within his tier.
If Yang Chen, as the villain, didn’t interrupt his road to invincibility soon, things could beco problematic. The Yu Kong Seal was likely one of Yu Zun’s fateful opportunities. And as a villain, how could Yang Chen not seize it?
Giving the seal to Zhan Qiuyun afterward? That was just a casual afterthought.
Hearing his words, Zhan Qiuyun turned her head to look at him. Her autumn-like eyes shimred with a mix of surprise, disdain, and a hint of heartfelt emotion.
“You little brat, are you serious?”
“Of course, I am!”
“Martial Aunt holds a unique place in my heart. Even Chu Xi pales in comparison! Otherwise, why would I stay here on Youyue Peak all this ti? And surely, Martial Aunt doesn’t think I’m so foolish that I don’t understand how valuable Origin Qi is to a cultivator, right? Yet even so, I have provided Martial Aunt with an endless stream of it without hesitation! Frankly, doing so has caused no small impact on my Solar Divine Physique!”
Yang Chen stared into Zhan Qiuyun’s limpid eyes, his tone resolute.
At that mont, he noticed a change in her expression. Her sharp, decisive deanor softened, her eyes avoiding his gaze as though she couldn’t et his sincerity. Moreover, the coldness in her gaze had faded, replaced by a mix of tenderness and emotion.
For soone as ruthless as her to show such a look was no small feat. It seed his painstaking performance had paid off.
Heh heh.
The emotional tension had been pulled to just the right point now. Yang Chen’s lips curved into a faint smile as he stepped behind Zhan Qiuyun.
Reaching out, he wrapped his hand around her slender yet voluptuous waist.
“You little scoundrel!” Zhan Qiuyun imdiately sensed his movent and let out a soft reprimand. Yet, her body offered little resistance.
After a symbolic struggle, she allowed Yang Chen to hold her in his arms.
In an instant, her full and graceful back pressed tightly against Yang Chen’s chest.
It all felt so natural.
Beneath the ditative tree, the elegant and alluring woman clad in a moonlit robe was embraced by a handso young man. A gentle breeze passed through, causing the tree’s leaves to flutter down, cascading over them.
The scene was breathtakingly beautiful.
Yet, as picturesque as this mont appeared, if the elders and disciples of Heavenly Dao Holy Land were to witness it, their jaws would undoubtedly hit the floor.
After all, the master of Youyue Peak, Zhan Qiuyun, was a ruthless figure who had paved her way with countless corpses. And now, here she was, being held in the arms of a young cultivator.
What was even more shocking was that she showed no signs of resistance whatsoever.
