Xiao Zhuang could tell that Tian Yun had feelings for Song Xiwei, but he probably felt ashamed of being number two for so long, so he kept thinking about defeating Song Xiwei first before talking about anything else.
Xiao Zhuang felt that defeating Song Xiwei and getting rid of the title of perennial runner-up would be even more difficult than catching up with Song Xiwei.
Of course, Tianyun is neither stupid nor foolish.
This time, Song Xiwei has been gone for too long, and it's different from before.
Song Xiwei was accompanied by someone this time, who was the young lord of the Demon Clan. Tianyun had seen the portrait and found the other party to be outstanding in appearance, which made him feel very threatened.
Tianyun almost lost his composure and wanted to go down the mountain to find Song Xiwei.
If it weren't for the sect leader's intervention, he would have already...
Now that Song Xiwei has finally returned, judging from her attitude, she will definitely not stay long before going down the mountain again.
Tian Yun made up his mind. He originally wanted to wait until he was stronger, so that even if he couldn't defeat her, he could at least achieve a draw and still look good.
At that time, he confessed his feelings to her, which could have led to a beautiful love story.
After enduring months of torment, Tianyun no longer wanted to take any more risks.
He felt that at least they should settle things between the two of them first, so that he would have a reason to drive away those who approached her with ill intentions in the future.
"Song Xiwei, take this." Tianyun suddenly took out a pair of jade bracelets from his sleeve.
Anyone with a discerning eye could recognize that jade bracelet immediately.
The sect leader's wife keeps this item close to her body; she doesn't show it to others easily, but the meaning behind it is quite clear.
If you accept this jade bracelet, you will become the future mistress of the sect leader.
Xiao Zhuang was taken aback by Tianyun's sudden and bold move.
Has this kid finally figured it out?
I thought he would fight with Song Xiwei for several more years before taking action.
Unexpectedly, they actually knew to use the jade bracelet to restrain the person first.
"Take it! Take it!"
More and more excited voices rose from the surrounding disciples.
Even Xiao Zhuang couldn't resist joining in the commotion.
Song Xiwei frowned as she looked at the table that had been handed to her.
Seeing that she didn't reach out to take the table, Tianyun wasn't in a hurry and waited patiently.
The look in her eyes wasn't as competitive as usual; instead, it held a sweet anticipation. "Song Xiwei, you don't need to be shy. No one is more suitable for this bracelet than you."
To express his feelings in such an arrogant way—that's just Tianyun's personality.
However, he is a straightforward person who doesn't beat around the bush. "I can wait for you to think it over slowly, but everyone is waiting for your reply. If you don't mind the noise, we can wait together."
Song Xiwei rolled her eyes helplessly.
Is this even allowed?
She's not stupid; she knows what accepting this bracelet means.
She had no ulterior motives towards Tianyun. He simply treated her as a sparring partner, and she treated him as a sparring partner in return. They had become quite adept at training together over the years.
I still remember the first time I challenged Tianyun.
At that time, Tianyun was already a formidable opponent in the sect, while Song Xiwei was still a novice.
Even with her exceptional talent, no one except her grandmaster knew the true extent of her abilities.
Thus, the famous legend of Tianyun, who had once dominated the sect's top spot and was undefeated, fell from grace and became the eternal runner-up, never to return to the top position.
I always thought that the other person was like me, only focused on becoming stronger, without any other thoughts.
Song Xiwei only realized what was happening after the bracelet was handed to her.
It turns out there were signs all along.
I don’t know when it started, but Tianyun was always afraid of hurting herself when she fought him. But the truth is that even if he went all out, he couldn’t hurt her at all. On the contrary, she completely crushed him. If she hadn’t been afraid of hurting his confidence and held back a little, she would have made him take half a year off after one fight.
