Seeing Tu Shanyu in danger, Yu Yanluo was about to turn around and call Zu An to help, but she was surprised to find that he had disappeared. When she turned back, he was already holding Tu Shanyu and protecting her behind him.

Yun Jianyue, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but complain, "This guy is faster than anyone else when it comes to playing the hero and saving the damsel in distress."

Yan Xuehen nodded in agreement, and after observing for a while, she couldn't help but frown and say, "Why do I feel that the way the King of Qingqiu looks at him is a bit off?"

Yun Jianyue rolled her eyes: "It's inevitable to feel some ripples in your heart when you're saved by a man on the verge of life and death. You've experienced it before, and your reaction was even worse than his. How dare you say that?"

Yan Xuehen gritted her teeth: "Witch, are you deliberately trying to make things difficult for me?"

Seeing the two women arguing again, Yu Yanluo rubbed his forehead. He was more concerned about Zu An now. After all, the other party was a grandmaster, and the momentum of this attack was so overwhelming. He rushed over to save people, and he might not be able to withstand this move in time.

Seemingly sensing his worry, Yun Jianyue said, "Don't worry, have faith in your man."

Upon hearing the words "your man," Yu Yanluo blushed slightly. However, since even a grandmaster had said that, she felt a little more certain.

Meanwhile, Chiwen charged towards Tushan Yu, but unexpectedly, the opponent's nine-tailed fox form suddenly collapsed.

It was too late for him to stop. His current skill level was not yet at that point where he could control his attacks at will. If he forced himself to stop, he would be seriously injured.

Although I was reluctant to part with her, what did a woman matter compared to my safety?

Since I can't have her, I'll destroy her myself, so no one else can have her either.

So instead of holding back, he attacked even harder.

Immediately afterwards, he saw a man holding Tu Shanyu in his arms. The tender and affectionate look in the man's eyes was completely different from when he looked at him.

He was furious. He had worked so hard all day, only to give someone else the chance to be a hero and save the damsel in distress.

I haven't even touched the hem of Tu Shanyu's clothes, yet another man has hugged her directly?

Anger from Chiwen: +444 +444 +444...

Then he saw that the other person actually came forward with one hand, and he couldn't help but laugh in anger. Has this human gone crazy from chasing girls?

He was a grandmaster, while the other man's cultivation was only around the ninth rank. Even if the other man went all out, he couldn't withstand a single move from him, yet he still tried to use one hand?

Who gave you the courage?

He felt that the dignity of the dragon race had been insulted, and decided that this strike would crush the opponent's hand into dust, making him wail in pain and kneel before him begging for mercy in order to vent his anger.

Anger from Chiwen: +499 +499 +499...

But what awaited him was a palm, a palm that suddenly grew larger than a palm-leaf fan.

Snap!

A crisp sound echoed throughout the entire palace.

Chiwen was sent flying backward by the slap, barely managing to regain his footing, with stars flashing before his eyes.

What just happened?

Zu An ignored him and instead looked at Tu Shan Yu: "Are you injured?"

"No." Feeling that familiar yet unfamiliar aura, Tu Shanyu's face flushed slightly. Thinking of how this man had taken advantage of her last night, she didn't dare to look at him for a moment.

From afar, Yun Jianyue sneered, "This kid's womanizing habit has relapsed."

Yan Xuehen didn't say anything, but remained expressionless.

Yu Yanluo also sighed softly, having observed male virtues for a day, she had now broken them.

At that moment, a thunderous roar rang out: "You dare hit me!"

Chiwen finally came to his senses. He had just been slapped away by this man, which was a great humiliation!

Anger from Chiwen: +788 +788 +788...

What puzzled him even more was something else: he was clearly a grandmaster, and in theory, he should be able to anticipate the enemy's moves using his divine soul when dealing with those below the grandmaster level, so why did he not react at all just now?

Zuan didn't answer him. Instead, he waved his hand, and clusters of snowflakes formed a curtain, covering the bodies of the panicked fox-woman officials: "You all go and change your clothes first. I'll take care of things here."

"Thank you, young master!" The fox-woman officials looked at Zu An with gratitude in their eyes. It is said that foxes are good at bewitching people, but they are women after all, and their naked appearance just now was really too embarrassing.

Tu Shanyu couldn't help but look up at the other person, momentarily lost in thought.

Yun Jianyue, who was far away, nudged Yan Xuehen with her elbow: "He's using the tricks you taught him to pick up girls."

Yan Xuehen was annoyed: "It wasn't me who taught him, it was Chu Yan who taught him."

At this moment, Chiwen roared, "I'm talking to you! Are you deaf?"

Zuan then turned around: "You think I have to answer your questions? Who do you think you are?"

Chiwen's breath hitched: "Good, good, good. It's been a long time since I've encountered such an arrogant person."

Anger from Chiwen: +444 +444 +444...

Zu An laughed and said, "Why don't you look in the mirror and you'll see?"

Chiwen: "..."

The momentum that had been painstakingly built up was almost directly broken through the defense.

"Very well, let's see if your skills are as good as your tough talk." Chiwen sneered, thinking that he had been careless just now and would not give the other party another chance.

With a twist of his body, many bubbles suddenly appeared in the palace's ornamental lake. Then, the water in the lake began to swirl, forming many whirlpools. Finally, more than a dozen waterspouts, each several meters in diameter, surged out of the lake. The pavilions, towers, and ornamental trees around the lake could not withstand the pressure and began to collapse.
