Chi Yuan: "..."
An Yuxi: "..."
At this moment, An Yuxi was extremely grateful that she had taken that step decisively last night. Otherwise, if her master had seen her disheveled state last night, it would have been too shameful. Just thinking about it made her scalp tingle.
"Master, how come you're with Yunmeng?"
Chi Yuan broke the awkward atmosphere and changed the subject by asking a question.
Yunmeng?
Upon hearing this name, both An Yuxi and Wenren Bingying were shaken. Wenren Bingying had investigated Chi Yuan's information before, and they knew that Chi Yuan's fiancée was named Yun Meng. Could this woman be Chi Yuan's fiancée?
"Because she is my niece, her mother is my third sister, and she also has the blood of my Heavenly Phoenix Clan flowing in her veins. As an elder, it is only normal for me to keep her by my side."
Feng Yaoyao offered a somewhat dejected explanation.
Chi Yuan was surprised and doubtful upon hearing this. Yun Meng's mother had not been by her side since she was a child, and she did not even know her mother's name. How could she suddenly become a member of the Tianfeng clan?
Seeing that Chi Yuan seemed not to believe her, Feng Yaoyao continued, "I didn't lie to you. Yesterday I took them back to their clan to recognize their ancestors. I also activated their Heavenly Phoenix bloodline. Little Mengmeng is amazing. Not only did she awaken the highest-level Emperor-rank bloodline, but she also awakened divinity. Now she is the goddess of my Heavenly Phoenix clan."
"Oh, by the way, let me tell you, our clan originally intended to match you two up and arrange a new marriage for you, but Yunmeng refused, saying she wanted to win you back on her own. So I brought her here. She will also be cultivating at the Heavenly Phoenix Pavilion from now on, so you, as her senior brother, must take good care of her."
Will Yunmeng also cultivate at Tianfeng Pavilion in the future?
An Yuxi felt a chill run down her spine, a sense of crisis rising within her—a crisis stemming from the threat to her status as the principal wife.
Yunmeng was different from Chi Yuan's other junior sisters. She was the only person Chi Yuan had ever loved, and she was the one who should have become Chi Yuan's wife. Her position in Chi Yuan's heart was extraordinary.
If Chi Yuan were to accept Yun Meng back, wouldn't her position as the main wife be in jeopardy?
"Disciple understands."
Chi Yuan gave Yun Meng a deep look but didn't say anything. In his eyes, Yun Meng was already a complete stranger. Even if they cultivated in the same sect in the future, their relationship could never go back to what it was before, so why should he care about Yun Meng's existence?
An Yuxi was not so calm. She could give up on other things, but she had to fight for the position of the main wife!
Now that Yunmeng might threaten her position, how can she still remain calm and collected?
"Junior Sister Yunmeng, my name is An Yuxi, and I am your senior sister."
An Yuxi walked gracefully to Chi Yuan's side, a gentle smile on her lips, and looked Yun Meng and Feng Xiyu in the eye as she spoke.
Yunmeng's eyes flashed. Her sixth sense was extremely sharp, so how could she not sense An Yuxi's hostility towards her? She seemed calm and collected, but in reality, a storm was brewing.
However, she had no intention of competing with An Yuxi. Although losing the position of the main wife was painful for her, what was lost was lost, and she could not take it back. Since that was the case, why bother competing with An Yuxi?
Moreover, she hadn't yet won back Chi Yuan, and faced with this biggest practical problem, she had no time to consider anything else.
"Yunmeng greets Senior Sister. I am new here and do not know the rules. I hope Senior Sister will take good care of me and give me guidance in the future."
Yunmeng avoided direct confrontation and spoke in a very humble manner.
An Yuxi scrutinized Yunmeng, unsure whether he was feigning weakness or genuinely backing down. After a moment of contemplation, she smiled faintly, her expression enigmatic: "I had long heard that Junior Brother has a stunningly beautiful fiancée. Seeing her today, I can confirm that she is indeed incomparably beautiful and has an extraordinary charm, making even Senior Sister feel ashamed of herself."
"Senior sister, you flatter me. My humble appearance is nothing compared to your unparalleled beauty."
Yunmeng lowered her head and said bitterly, "Besides... I am no longer Senior Brother Chiyuan's fiancée, so Senior Sister, please don't bring this up again."
"I've heard that my junior sister is deeply in love with my junior brother. Am I really willing to sever this bond?"
An Yuxi said in a thought-provoking way.
Yunmeng shook her head slightly, glanced sadly at Chi Yuan, and said dejectedly, "I once thought I loved him deeply, but later I realized that it was just wishful thinking on my part. Because if you truly love someone, you should trust them without reservation, but I didn't choose to believe him when he needed it most..."
"Trust is the foundation of love. I couldn't even give him the most basic trust, so what right do I have to say I love him? I don't deserve it at all..."
Seeing the pain and regret in Yunmeng's eyes, An Yuxi sighed inwardly. She was overthinking it. A woman who was so humble for love would have to use all her efforts just to win back the love she had lost. How could she possibly pursue anything else?
"Junior Sister Yunmeng, I misspoke. Please forgive me. I will treat you well from now on and never let you suffer any grievances in Tianfeng Pavilion."
"Thank you, Senior Sister!"
...
Xianyun Inn.
Inside a guest room, Lu Ziling and her six fellow disciples gathered.
"Sigh... Now that Senior Brother is gone, even Junior Sister is leaving."
Mu Lingyun was in low spirits, and her pretty face showed sadness.
"With the departure of the eldest brother and junior sister, we will be separated into two sects, and we don't know when we will be able to meet again."
Yue Qianrou sighed softly.
"If only our senior brother could take us with him."
Leng Feiruo blurted out a sentence that expressed everyone's thoughts: they all wanted to go with Chi Yuan and didn't want to return to Shenxiao Sect.
Pei Qingyun, the grandmaster, personally persecuted the senior brother, which not only severely damaged their feelings for the Shenxiao Sect, but also made them lose their sense of security. After all, Pei Qingyun persecuted the senior brother in order to help Ye Chen get them. If Pei Qingyun could do this to the senior brother, wouldn't he do it to them too?
