The four of them were quite puzzled. Li Xiaoxiao reached out to hug her son, and Qi Yu quickly handed the child to Li Xiaoxiao. In the process, he accidentally touched his wife's hand, and Qi Yu's face lit up with a smile.
To outsiders, the behavior of this couple seemed very strange and not at all like that of a normal married couple.
Xuanyuan Ying looked at Xuanyuan Mengsi with hostility from Li Xiaoxiao's arms. Just a moment ago, he clearly felt the unfriendly gaze from that woman.
"Li Xiaoxiao, I challenge you to a duel." Xuan Yuanmengsi mustered her courage and challenged Li Xiaoxiao to a duel. She had to force Li Xiaoxiao to use her demonic energy. Then, all those who looked down on her would be silenced, and Qi Yu would no longer focus his attention on her.
Although she might suffer serious injuries, as long as she gets hurt, she can blame Li Xiaoxiao for not being careful enough, which will earn her a lot of goodwill. After thinking it over, Xuan Yuan Meng Si felt that this was a very worthwhile deal.
"Why should I waste my time?" Li Xiaoxiao had no intention of indulging her. Besides, she didn't have time to argue with these women. Xuan Yuanmengsi wasn't even qualified to fight her.
Qi Yu wasn't quite sure either, and then said, "Don't you have any self-awareness? A Nascent Soul cultivator wants to take on a Divine Realm cultivator one-on-one? Wait until you reach the Tribulation Transcending stage first."
These words were utterly sarcastic. Xuan Yuan Meng Si hadn't expected this man to be so direct, uttering such humiliating words without any regard for her feelings. However, these words immediately caused a huge uproar in the crowd. Divine Realm??
"So young and already at the Divine Realm? Isn't that just one step away from ascension?" Everyone looked at him with disbelief, some speculating, some doubting, and their eyes filled with envy as they looked at Qi Yu.
No one on the mainland had ever mentioned that a person at the Divine Realm would appear on the mainland, and at such a young age. There are only three people at the Divine Realm on the entire mainland. Two of those three are currently at the Heavenly Stems Academy, and the other is in the Dragon Soaring Kingdom.
A Divine Realm expert, only seventeen years old, a prodigy. Even her older sister is only at the Tribulation Transcending Realm. How can the Northern Wei Kingdom produce so many geniuses? Wu Shiyao is at the seventh level of the Tribulation Transcending Realm, and Xuan Yuanyu is at the ninth level.
Under everyone's gaze, Xuan Yuan Meng Si became a laughing stock. Everyone looked at her with mockery. Xuan Yuan Meng Si was at a loss. Wu Shi Yao also slowly walked out from inside and put her hand on Xuan Yuan Jin Wen's arm. "Husband, is this the princess adopted by the royal family? How can she be so arrogant? Could it be that your royal family likes this kind of overbearing attitude?"
Wu Shiyao's appearance made Xuanyuan Mengsi even angrier. "What do you mean, Wu Shiyao? I am a person whose strength is personally recognized by the royal family, but I am no match for your ability to fight five men by myself."
She hated Wu Shiyao to the core. She had her eye on Xuanyuan Jinwen, but Xuanyuan Jinwen didn't even look at her and instead married Wu Shiyao, who already had four husbands. She was trampled underfoot and became a laughingstock. Although other princes in the royal family had feelings for her, they were all at the Golden Core stage and were not worthy of her at all.
Furthermore, when the crown prince was chosen, it was Xuanyuan Jinwen. She was ridiculed by the entire royal family for not being able to win over a man, which was truly laughable.
"Xuanyuan Mengsi, you're not jealous, are you?"
Wu Shiyao was quick-witted and sharp-tongued, and the five men beside her doted on her so much that she couldn't bear any grievances at this moment.
Wu Shiyao didn't need to take any exams at all, since she had already passed; she just hadn't come to the academy. At this moment, Xuan Yuanmengsi's first-place entrance exam score had already made her feel incredibly proud.
"I can defeat you in one move. Why don't you spar with me first? If you rashly fight my sister and accidentally get killed by her punch, I won't care. After all, my mother told me to protect my sister's safety before I left home. A woman like you would probably just lie on the ground begging for mercy if you lost."
After Wu Shiyao finished speaking, the female cultivators around her all cast disgusted looks at her. She was just a low-class female cultivator, yet she really thought she was something special.
The atmosphere was tense, but Li Xiaoxiao felt quite relieved. At least Wu Shiyao was on her side. It seemed she truly deserved to be the female lead, unlike Xuan Yuanmengsi, who was blindly arrogant.
In the previous life, Qi Yu was clearly pursuing Wu Shiyao. In this life, why don't they like each other? If it were a man Wu Shiyao liked, she, as the female lead, should have gone to any lengths to win him back.
Li Xiaoxiao's thoughts became a little jumbled again.
Just as Xuanyuan Mengsi was isolated and helpless, Li Suzhu gracefully landed above them on the magical beast Qingniao Yuanshou. "Sister Shiyao, we are all still newcomers, so please don't be aggressive and bully us."
Li Suzhu arrived a little late for the opening ceremony. As a highly respected senior sister, she was already the second elder's last disciple and was bound to achieve great things in the future.
"Senior Sister Suzhu is here. This is going to be interesting. I heard that Senior Sister Suzhu and Li Xiaoxiao have the same father. However, because Li Xiaoxiao is the legitimate daughter, she has never received the title of legitimate daughter. This angered her so much that she severed ties with the Li family. She only stayed with her birth mother, who was born in a brothel. I heard that she hasn't seen her recently. Her father and wife divorced. In order to win back his wife, he killed all the concubines in the courtyard, including her birth mother."
"Such a thing is outrageous! No one could tolerate this. I've heard that Li Suzhu already has the strength to become a god, but she's still far inferior to Li Xiaoxiao."
"There really is a difference between legitimate daughters and illegitimate daughters." The crowd was buzzing with discussion, but the person speaking suddenly felt a chill as Li Suzhu's gaze swept fiercely over them.
Wu Shiyao slumped into Xuanyuan Jinwen's arms, whining, "Husband, what's wrong? Did I say something wrong? Why is my sister scolding me like this?"
Chen Wei returned from a distance at this moment. Upon seeing Wu Shiyao, he immediately rode his white crane to her side and said gently, "My wife, I'm back. I just went to capture a ferocious beast. It's the egg of the Fire God Bird, a distant relative of the Phoenix. Here you go."
Chen Wei took out the firebird egg, and Wu Shiyao's eyes were drawn to it. She got out of Huangfu Jinwen's arms and took the egg. "Chen Wei, you're just right. Your eyes are full of joy."
This scene was utterly ironic to Li Suzhu. She had worked so hard to fight monsters with Chen Wei and finally obtained the Firebird egg, but Chen Wei didn't cherish it and instead gave it to Wu Shiyao. It was so ironic. She was waiting for the day when she and Chen Wei would ride the Firebird together and make Wu Shiyao jealous.
After all, Chen Wei was her first man, yet he wanted to leave her. Later, he gave all the good things he had done for her to Wu Shiyao. She hated him so much. She hated Wu Shiyao and Li Xiaoxiao, and she wanted everyone in the Wu and Li families to die.
