“That’s not what I meant. It’s just that Chu Yan and I are husband and wife. Even if we’re a little intimate, it’s not some heinous crime,” Zu An said helplessly. “You’re already divorced,” Yan Xuehen corrected.
Zuan: "..."
Seemingly finding this reason somewhat far-fetched, Yan Xuehen had no choice but to continue, "You clearly promised me before that you would not approach her recently and affect her state of mind. Could it be that you actually want that demoness from the Demonic Sect to win, so you deliberately disturbed Chu Yan's state of mind before the battle?"
“Of course I wouldn’t do that!” Zuan hurriedly explained, “I just… I just couldn’t help myself.”
"Uncontrollable..." Upon hearing this word, Yan Xuehen felt a mix of emotions. After finally gathering her thoughts, she said, "And you actually bullied Chu Yan in Lou Wucheng, just because you were outside the door. Do you know that if this is exposed, Chu Yan will be ruined?"
Zuan was somewhat embarrassed; he had indeed acted impulsively in that situation.
Yan Xuehen also felt it was a bit strange to discuss this kind of thing with him, and said with an unnatural expression, "I came here this time to warn you again, don't harass Chuyan during this period, or don't blame me for severing ties with you."
Without waiting for a response, he drifted away.
Zuan was initially annoyed, but then suddenly realized something and his expression turned happy.
After Zu An returned to his room, Xie Daoyun, wearing a robe and looking worried, came over and said, "Brother Zu, what did Abbot Yan say to you just now? Her aura was terrifying."
The conversation between the two was blocked by a powerful aura, so outsiders naturally couldn't hear it.
Zuan smiled slightly: "It's nothing, just a little misunderstanding, which has been cleared up."
Xie Daoyun was full of admiration: "Brother Zu, you are really capable. You can remain calm and composed even when facing a Grandmaster in a fit of rage. I could never do that."
“I’m quite familiar with Abbot Yan, but wasn’t it the same when you faced the Chief Priest?” Zu’an comforted her for a moment. “Alright, go to sleep, it’s already late.”
He noticed that his bed was neat and tidy, and knew that she hadn't gone to sleep yet. He knew she was shy, so he didn't invite her again. After all, he was back now, and asking her to sleep in his bed again would seem like he had ulterior motives.
Exhausted from the past few days of travel and the long battle he had just fought, he fell fast asleep as soon as he hit the bed.
Xie Daoyun lay in the outer cubicle, listening to the breathing inside, but she tossed and turned, unable to sleep, clutching the blanket...
The night passed quickly, but the next day, rumors suddenly spread throughout Purple Mountain, saying that Fairy Chu of Baiyujing had actually been married before, and that her husband was Zu'an, who was now living on the mountain.
The story was told in great detail and with seemingly convincing details, causing countless people's hearts to break and the entire Purple Mountain to be in an uproar.
