Chapter 1022: Chapter 1022: It’s Him
“What is that person’s na?” Pan Xiaoning directly asked.
“What?” Hong Yan didn’t understand the aning behind Pan Xiaoning’s sudden question.
“We have grown up together since we were kids, you can’t hide anything from us. You have soone you’re fond of, why didn’t you tell us? Co on, who is that person exactly, which family’s son is he, to have made our pure and desireless Fairy Yue fall into the web of love?” Pan Xiaoning said.
“What nonsense are you talking about?” Hong Yan was imdiately annoyed.
Normally, she wouldn’t take these words to heart, but the phrase ‘web of love’ made Hong Yan think of the red thread around her neck, and her mood turned exceedingly sour.
“Really in love, huh?” Seeing Hong Yan’s reaction, Pan Xiaoning and Wen Bujun beca even more convinced of their guess.
But knowing Hong Yan’s temperant, they didn’t say anything further.
“Aren’t you participating in the Divine Being competition? Instead of preparing, why are you here bothering ?” Hong Yan also realized her mood was a bit off, and tried to calm down before speaking.
“You don’t know our strength yet, do you? That kind of competition doesn’t require any preparation on our part.” Pan Xiaoning, among his own people, spoke whatever ca to his mind, thick-skinned as he was.
“Be careful, or you might capsize in the gutter.” As soon as Hong Yan spoke these words, she laughed, knowing there was no such possibility.
With the strength of Pan Xiaoning and Wen Bujun, capsizing truly was unlikely, unless they were to co across each other ahead of ti.
“You say that, but in this competition, there really is an interesting person.”
“Which family’s rising star could possibly earn such high praise from you?” Hong Yan was sowhat surprised by Pan Xiaoning’s words; she hadn’t expected him to say such a thing.
“Don’t know which family, but I know his na is Tian, and I can’t tell what Divine Skill he practices; he might even be taking an unconventional path,” Pan Xiaoning said casually.
“An unconventional path surely can’t compete with you… wait… what did you just say that person’s na was…” Hong Yan suddenly realized sothing, and staring intently at Pan Xiaoning, she asked.
“Tian… what’s wrong…” Pan Xiaoning was startled, not understanding why Hong Yan was acting so unusually today, normally so serene and calm, yet now so flustered.
Having verified the na Pan Xiaoning ntioned, Hong Yan imdiately pulled up a photo to show him: “The Tian you ntioned, is it this person?”
Pan Xiaoning and Wen Bujun both looked carefully and then shook their heads: “Not sure, he was wearing full armor during the competition, couldn’t see his face, but based on his build, it seems sowhat similar.”
“Take to see.” Hong Yan imdiately got up and headed towards the Divine Travel Vast Void chamber room.
“No way… could that Tian… be the one Hong Yan has fallen for…” Pan Xiaoning and Wen Bujun’s expressions turned sowhat odd.
In their view, for soone to cause Hong Yan to fall in love was akin to having the ability to make an iron tree bloom.
There are many Divine Travel Vast Void chambers here at Hong Yan’s place; the three each used one to enter the Great Void realm.
Lin Shen was competing at the mont; the trio entered the stadium’s spectator stand, and Hong Yan identified him with just one glance – this was indeed the Tian she wanted to et.
Her eyes shimred, clearly seeing the many red threads connected to Lin Shen’s hand, one of which was a red, verging on purple thread connected to her neck.
Looking at Lin Shen in the arena, flas nearly shot from Hong Yan’s eyes.
She couldn’t believe that soone like her could be entangled in a marital thread with such a heartbreaker.
Upon closer observation, the red threads appeared even brighter, redder, and purpler, almost dazzling to the eyes.
“Is it him?” Pan Xiaoning asked.
“It is him.” As Hong Yan was fuming, she replied instinctively.
This sentence, when heard by Pan Xiaoning and Wen Bujun, carried a different implication than what Hong Yan ant to express.
“This Tian, he really is Hong Yan’s lover!” the two were amazed in their hearts.
“What is his background?” Wen Bujun asked curiously.
The Yue Family is prestigious, and although not a part of the Nine Great Divine Skills heritage families, their connections and influence are not to be underestimated. Hong Yan may even beco the helmsperson of the Yue Family in the future.
The Yue Family would likely not allow her to marry soone of ordinary background easily. With the Yue Family’s capabilities, even if Hong Yan and Tian are destined by the marriage thread, they could sever it.
“You don’t know him? He is Deng Aduo from the Deng Family, his nickna is Tian,” said Hong Yan.
“He is Deng Aduo? The Deng Aduo who is supposed to enter into an arranged marriage with the Shen Family?” Pan Xiaoning and Wen Bujun both widened their eyes in disbelief, looking at Hong Yan with complex emotions that could almost make a TV drama series.
In fact, in their minds, they had already imagined many lodramatic plots.
“A love triangle; you love , I love him, and he loves you.”
“At the wedding of the century, Fairy Yue appears and steals the groom.”
“A handso young man forsakes love for profit, a beauty destined for sorrow accompanies ancient Buddha.”
“A love oblivious to worldly affairs, the Celestial Hongyan turns out to be the other woman.”
All sorts of lodramatic plots erupted in their minds, fueling their gossipy souls.
“Ahem, Hong Yan, with your conditions, what good man can’t you find? You don’t have to hang yourself on a crooked tree…” Wen Bujun gently persuaded.
“Exactly, exactly, you are the Fairy connected by the marriage thread, severing sentintal ties with a sharp sword—just a snap and it’s easily done, not worth the trouble…”
The arranged marriage between the Shen and Deng families is of great importance. If Hong Yan truly forces the severance of their marriage thread, the Shen and Deng families might not take it lying down.
Hong Yan, hearing them speak like this, realized they had misunderstood and quickly said, “What are you thinking? I have never even t him…”
But she couldn’t continue her words.
Between her and this Tian, there truly existed a marriage thread, if she said there was no relation, that would be difficult to justify.
Seeing Hong Yan’s reaction, Pan Xiaoning and Wen Bujun beca even more convinced there must be sothing between them.
“Hong Yan, you don’t have to worry, if you really want this man, then go boldly reclaim him. Don’t worry about the Shen and Deng families, we’ll help you shoulder it,” said Pan Xiaoning.
“I…” Hong Yan truly didn’t know what to say, she surely couldn’t tell Pan Xiaoning and Wen Bujun that she was as if leashed by a dog’s rope.
“Don’t talk nonsense, I have nothing to do with him, I’d rather he were dead,” said Hong Yan irritably.
However, this statent only increased Pan Xiaoning’s and Wen Bujun’s misunderstanding.
They had already fantasized a major drama—Hong Yan and Tian loving each other, but because of family interests, Tian helplessly sacrifices himself to marry into the Shen Family, leaving Hong Yan alone and lanting.
If not so, how would Hong Yan know Tian as his nickna? She recognized him so quickly despite his heavily armored disguise, surely they must be very familiar with each other.
The two had seemingly confird that Tian was indeed Hong Yan’s lover, yet due to the arranged marriage between the Shen and Deng families, they must live apart.
Pan Xiaoning and Wen Bujun exchanged a look and saw the seriousness in each other’s eyes.
They needed to help Hong Yan confirm whether this Tian was indeed worthy of her trust. If he was, no matter what the Shen and Deng families did, they would help Hong Yan snatch him back.
If he was not worthy of trust, then they should make that Tian get lost as far away as possible, so that Hong Yan could swiftly sever her sentintal ties.
