Although the tribulation had ended, the scene before them was even more explosive in everyone's eyes than the tribulation itself.
One moment she was wielding the tribulation lightning, exuding domineering power as she annihilated the final tribulation, displaying the demeanor of a venerable being; the next moment she transformed into a delicate little woman, actively throwing herself into a man's arms, flirting and teasing him. Such a huge contrast made her seem like two completely different people.
However, that was not all. What they found most unacceptable was that this man was Chi Yuan!
A powerful Venerable-level expert who has mastered the power of Heavenly Tribulation has actually fallen into the hands of a mere King-level brat?!
Moreover, she seemed to be bowing her head low, completely in a submissive posture, as if the one three realms higher than her was not An Yuxi, but Chi Yuan.
Why should I?
The surrounding experts, including those at the sect and even the venerable level, nearly vomited blood. They couldn't understand where they had lost. Although Chi Yuan was very talented, the huge gap in cultivation level was still there. How could Chi Yuan have managed to deceive An Yuxi?
"My disciple is right, that brat really deserves to die!"
"I'm so angry! It's one thing for a junior to like him, but even Junior Sister An..."
"Could it be that this kid used some despicable means on Junior Sister An? Otherwise, with Junior Sister An's cultivation level, how could she have fallen into this kid's clutches?"
"Alas, Junior Sister An is too naive and soft-hearted. This boy must have used some kind of self-inflicted injury scheme, then coaxed and deceived her, causing her to suffer this calamity without even realizing it. And since Junior Sister An cares so much about her reputation, she had no choice but to submit to him..."
"My junior sister An!"
...
A group of powerful experts at the sect and venerable levels stared at Chi Yuan with envy. They never imagined that one day they would be jealous of a junior because of a woman. At this moment, they finally understood the feelings of the younger generation of disciples. In one word, it was pain!
Compared to the high-level experts, the younger male disciples were not in pain, but they were all jealous, envious and admiring of Chi Yuan. To win over a peerless Venerable-level fairy with the cultivation of a Spirit King was simply unimaginable to them. No matter how Chi Yuan did it, he was a role model for us!
"Master is so lucky."
Wenren Bingying's eyes were filled with envy. If only she were the one her martial uncle called "wife," she would probably be laughing in her dreams.
Hmm, it's time to have Master Sister whisper some sweet nothings in her ear!
Ning Wan'er and Lu Ziling, along with the three sisters You Rong Xinya, were all filled with envy, dreaming that one day they could also be in Chi Yuan's arms. You Rong Qingyan and You Rong Qingxian were also very envious of An Yuxi. If they could develop their relationship with Chi Yuan to this point, why would they need to worry about the fate of their own lineage?
"Yuanlang..."
Yunmeng felt only bitterness and regret. If she had been more determined back then, she would have been Chi Yuan's wife. She couldn't even imagine how happy she would be now. But it was too late for regrets.
"That bastard!"
Ye Chen's eyes were bloodshot, and his fists trembled with jealousy. Seeing Chi Yuan embracing the woman of his dreams and being affectionate with her made him feel even worse than when he was tortured by those monsters from the Enchantress Sect. Why were all the women around Chi Yuan exceptionally talented and beautiful, while the women around him were all ugly and unsightly?
Why should I?!
"etc!"
A sudden thought flashed through Ye Chen's mind, and he looked at You Rong Qingyan with a strange expression. Just now, when You Rong Qingyan sided with Chi Yuan instead of him, he felt only resentment and anger.
But from another perspective, You Rong Qingyan knew he was no match for Chi Yuan, and she humbly pleaded with Chi Yuan for mercy. Doesn't that prove that You Rong Qingyan loves him? She even sacrificed herself to serve Chi Yuan for a month to take the blame for his offense. Doesn't that mean that You Rong Qingyan loves him very much?
Yes, that must be it!
It turns out he misunderstood Rong Qingyan!
Ye Chen was instantly overwhelmed with emotion, and his attitude towards You Rong Qingyan changed drastically. Perhaps... he could also follow Chi Yuan's example!
"Fellow Daoist Feng, you say I am not worthy to marry your disciple, but does this person deserve it?"
Gan Hong pointed at Chi Yuan with a sullen face.
"Of course he's good enough for you. You don't think you're any better than him, do you?"
Feng Yaoyao's matter-of-fact remark left Gan Hong speechless with anger.
Admittedly, Chi Yuan's talent is extraordinary, but geniuses are as numerous as the sands of the Ganges, and only a handful can cultivate to the level of a saint. What makes Feng Yaoyao think that Chi Yuan is stronger than her?
Gan Hong was furious and was about to lash out, but just as he was about to do so, a figure appeared between him and Chi Yuan, with his hands behind his back facing him.
This person was none other than Gan Jun, one of the three great holy masters of the Great Gan Dynasty and the holy ancestor of the Gan Zhen lineage.
"Gan Jun, are you really determined to protect this kid?"
Gan Hong looked at Gan Jun with an uncertain expression. This wasn't the first time Gan Jun had acted as if he was protecting Chi Yuan. When he rescued Ye Chen earlier, Gan Jun also appeared beside Chi Yuan. Although he didn't say a word, it was clear that he was preventing Gan Hong from attacking Chi Yuan.
Now that Gan Jun is standing between him and Chi Yuan, his intentions are self-evident.
"Since you already understand, why ask a question you already know the answer to?"
Gan Jun said calmly, "He's the one Zhen'er is betting on; you can't touch him."
"Hmph, do you really think that just because Gan Zhen has gotten close to him, he can compete with Gan Jing?"
Gan Hong snorted coldly, his tone carrying a warning: "I advise you to see the situation clearly. Ye Chen is the future of our Great Gan Kingdom. You and Gan Zhen must not go astray!"
"Who will be the future is still unknown, brother, so please don't jump to conclusions too early."
Gan Jun's voice remained calm.
Gan Hong squinted at Gan Jun for a while, and finally gave up his plan to take action. However, he did not give up his thoughts on An Yuxi. He refused to believe that he could not compete with a genius who had not yet grown up.
