After Su Yao and Zuo Yingchun descended, they couldn’t help but feel astonished by the sight around them.
This was the Qingyun Sect—yet how could there be so many beautiful celestial maidens here?
In truth, the spirit boat had returned smoothly to the Five Fingers Peak of Qingyun Sect not because Su Yao and Zuo Yingchun were steering it but because Ye Yu had already pre-set the route beforehand.
As expected, this was Ye Yu’s territory, so it should have been Ye Yu himself leading Su Yao and Zuo Yingchun down from the boat. However, it seemed that Ye Yu was still practicing calligraphy with Ruan Lianyue, making it inconvenient for Su Yao and Zuo Yingchun to disturb him. Left to their own devices, they descended alone, giving Ye Yu and Ruan Lianyue a quieter environment.
What they didn’t expect, though, was that as soon as they stepped off the boat, a woman dressed in imperial dragon robes stepped forward and demanded answers.
Su Yao, despite her curiosity, was about to respond but was promptly stopped by Zuo Yingchun, who raised her hand.
“I don’t like your tone. If you’re asking a question, ask with some respect. Understand?” Zuo Yingchun retorted boldly.
That was her nature—respect her, and she’d respect you even more in return. She didn’t care about titles or status! An emperor in the mortal realm? She was a reincarnated celestial, after all!
Li Ruowang, with her fiery temper, was already fuming, and Zuo Yingchun’s attitude only fueled her anger.
She took a step forward, saying, “This is how I talk. You can either listen or not, but you will listen!”
Zuo Yingchun scoffed. "Oh? Are mortal cultivators this bold now? Daring to challenge me face to face?”
“And what if I refuse?” Zuo Yingchun stepped forward, showing no sign of backing down, facing Li Ruowang head-on.
Meanwhile, inside the spirit boat, Ye Yu had just finished his practice. Hearing the commotion below, he walked out of the room and approached the edge of the boat to look down. One glance was enough to make his expression change drastically. freeweɓnovel.cøm
One, two, three, four... What in the world was happening here?
Ye Yu rubbed his eyes in disbelief and looked again. It was real. All of it.
How had it come to this? Why were so many of his companions gathered here? And from the looks of it, the tension was high, with a fight potentially breaking out at any moment.
What was he going to do?
Ye Yu’s mind raced as he quickly tried to think of a solution. At that moment, Ruan Lianyue also emerged from the room, her face slightly flushed, adding to her already charming appearance. Though exhausted, she forced herself to look composed, so as not to arouse suspicion in Su Yao and Zuo Yingchun.
Seeing only Ye Yu on the deck with a troubled expression, Ruan Lianyue curiously approached him and asked, “Husband, what’s wrong?”
Ye Yu gave a bitter smile without answering. Following his gaze, Ruan Lianyue noticed the group of women gathered below. Besides Yun Roumu in the corner, she recognized none of the others.
Who were these women? What had caused Ye Yu to make such a face?
After a moment of thought, Ruan Lianyue guessed that the woman in dragon robes was probably one of Ye Yu’s Dao companions as well. Otherwise, why would she be so confrontational with Zuo Yingchun?
Ruan Lianyue understood her current standing—Ye Yu had accepted her, but she still had wrongs to make up for. To secure her position, she knew she had to take action.
Clutching Ye Yu’s arm, she softly suggested, “Why don’t I go down and help you mediate between them?”
