Zhuang Aoxue quickly calmed down, assumed a defensive stance, and asked urgently, "When did you find out?"
"Does it matter?" Xiang Wan slowly stepped back to the side. "I want to see whether Zhuang Batian values his children more or dominating the martial arts world more."
"You are an illegitimate child who has been born under another man's body. Your father will never acknowledge you. Give up on that idea."
"This isn't up to you to decide. Take it!"
The two attacked her simultaneously, while Xiang Wan had long since retreated to the sidelines to watch the spectacle. There was no way around it; she was simply too weak against these people, and observing was far better than anything else.
Zhuang Aoxue's martial arts skills were not weak. Her Frost Palm technique was solid and powerful. For a time, the two men were evenly matched with her, and even seemed to be at a disadvantage.
Now that she was here, she couldn't let Zhuang Aoxue leave again. Xiang Wan seized the opportunity and launched a barrage of hidden weapons. She even planned to throw poison powder at Zhuang Aoxue if she tried to leave, determined not to let her go no matter what.
She couldn't possibly let such a good opportunity for revenge slip by.
After fighting for about fifteen minutes, a dark figure swiftly entered the fray, forcing the two to retreat to the side. Zhuang Aoxue, having exhausted her strength, was rapidly declining in condition and soon collapsed to the ground, severely injured, and was bound.
"Is it fun?"
Qu Chiyang walked towards Xiang Wan, his tone full of doting affection, which Xiang Wan was already used to.
"Thank goodness, if you hadn't come, she almost would have escaped."
"Yes, you can do whatever you want with her."
"good!"
Seeing Xiang Wan and Qu Chiyang decide her fate so casually, Zhuang Aoxue angrily shouted at Xiang Wan, "Zhuang Xiangwan, do you know anything about shame? A grown man, yet you insist on being ridden on, and you even look like you're enjoying it. Aren't you disgusting? My Zhuang family will never let this go unpunished, and we will definitely make you pay!"
"My face is good-looking enough. As for you, are you just jealous that I have people who love and care for me? Tsk tsk, what a waste of such a good-looking face."
Xiang Wan walked over and pinched her cheek cruelly, looking regretful. Zhuang Aoxue winced in pain, but was unwilling to be manipulated by him. She turned to Qu Chiyang and said, "The dignified leader of the Chiyang Sect actually allows such a shameless person to do evil around him. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by the world?"
"Oh? What suggestions do you have?"
Qu Chiyang actually picked up the conversation, something that had never happened before.
Xiang Wan couldn't help but roll her eyes, let go of her hand, clapped her hands in disgust, and said to Qu Chiyang, "She means that if you keep her by your side, the world won't laugh at you."
"you……"
"Am I wrong? It's a pity, the cult leader doesn't think much of you."
Xiang Wan looked completely confident, while Zhuang Aoxue's face flushed red and then turned pale, she was furious.
Qu Chiyang had Zhuang Aoxue taken down, then put his arm around Xiang Wan's waist, and in a few leaps they reached the mountaintop.
"You are Zhuang Batian's son?"
"Didn't you already find out the truth?"
"You hate them?"
"Shouldn't I hate someone who used me as a pawn?"
Qu Chiyang turned his head and looked at Xiang Wan with deep eyes, seemingly lost in thought, which made Xiang Wan feel uneasy.
"Master, what's wrong?"
"It's alright. Don't go out for the next few days."
"Um."
If she decided not to go out, she would. After instructing people to take good care of Zhuang Aoxue, Xiang Wan immersed herself in cultivation.
When she had almost finished cultivating, she went to the dungeon to see Zhuang Aoxue, only to find that she had already been released. She went to find Qu Chiyang and learned that he was the one who had ordered her release.
"Why?"
Xiang Wan didn't understand why they would let the person go so hastily when they were clearly enemies.
"She still has a great use to her, just wait and see."
Although she couldn't figure it out, Qu Chiyang never liked anyone interfering with his actions, so it was already quite good that he answered her. Xiang Wan stopped asking and continued living her life as usual.
It wasn't until one day, when Qu Chiyang placed a book called "The Frost Ice Technique" in front of her, that Xiang Wan realized he had gone to find a cultivation method for her.
"Did Zhuang Aoxue bring it?"
"Um."
"You made a deal?"
"You don't need to worry about it, just focus on your cultivation."
"good!"
When Qu Chiyang left, he paused slightly. Xiang Wan thought he had something else to say, but he walked away without looking back.
Stroking the manual in her hands, Xiang Wan was lost in confusion for the first time. Although Qu Chiyang didn't talk much, he truly spoiled her to the extreme, giving her whatever she wanted, and even if she didn't ask, he would find a way to get it for her. This man was like a mind reader, thinking of everything for her, just like someone lying in a hospital.
Thinking of this, Xiang Wan's heart began to pound uncontrollably. She desperately tried to suppress it, telling herself that this wasn't real, just a mission world, and that there were people waiting for her. She had to control her emotions.
With the correct training method, Xiang Wan's martial arts skills improved by leaps and bounds. In less than a month, she raised her skill to level 5, and her palm strikes were faintly accompanied by ice.
That day, when she returned from the outer room, she saw that there were many people busy in the cult leader's bedroom. Red curtains and silks decorated the entire room, and many exquisite porcelain and gold artifacts were brought in and placed in various places in the room.
Xiang Wan found it strange; what was Qu Chiyang up to now? She pulled someone aside to ask, and the person said, "The sect leader is getting married today." Hearing this, Xiang Wan felt a surge of excitement. Did Qu Chiyang intend to marry her? But she hadn't heard a thing; was this some kind of surprise for her?
Xiang Wan was torn between refusing him or not. After all, she was a man. If she really married him, how would she get along with him?
