Chapter 65 -65: Qinghe of the Dongfang Wuya Family
Dongfang Wuya’s voice had just faded when he accelerated his Sword Control, vanishing from Yan Changsheng and Xiao Chen’s sight in an instant.
“Is Mr. Wuya deliberately teasing the two of us?” Xiao Chen realized belatedly.
Making them think they had caught up, only for Dongfang Wuya to effortlessly leave them behind, was clearly a ploy to toy with them.
“Mr. Wuya has always been unpredictable, it’s not strange. I’ll go after them, senior brother, you stay here and wait for Shengsheng,” Yan Changsheng said and hastened his speed, chasing ahead.
Naturally, Xiao Chen wouldn’t follow Yan Changsheng’s suggestion.
Both of them accelerated, but after that, they never had another chance to get close to Dongfang Wuya.
Only when they arrived at the Red Moon Secret Realm did they finally catch sight of Dongfang Wuya and Shen Qinghe.
They weren’t the earliest to arrive; disciples from two other major sects of the South Desolate Continent also came early to participate in the once-in-a-century trials, hailing from the Shenwu Sect and Qianlong Pavilion respectively.
The moment everyone saw Dongfang Wuya, there was a slight hesitation in recognizing him.
All knew Dongfang Wuya for wearing red garments, his stunning grace captivating all, the unreachable flower atop a high mountain. But since he mostly kept to himself, very few Cultivators had actually seen him, and they were uncertain whether this outstandingly beautiful red-clothed Cultivator was the legendary Mr. Wuya.
Dongfang Wuya acted as if he didn’t see the other Cultivators’ sneaking glances, nor did he seem aware that his peach blossom eyes caused the hearts of the Female Cultivators present to race.
Everyone was restless, but Dongfang Wuya emitted an aura that kept others at a distance, so they dared not act recklessly.
The girl standing beside Dongfang Wuya had more guts, her beauty rivaling flowers, and her clear and tranquil temperament made her pleasing to the eye.
It was unclear what relationship this unfamiliar stunning girl had with Dongfang Wuya, or why he would so nonchalantly fiddle with the sleeve of her garment, an affectionate gesture that stirred imaginations.
Zhao Xueluo, the number one beauty of the Shenwu Sect, found her gaze fixed upon Dongfang Wuya the moment she saw him. She had long admired Dongfang Wuya but had never had an opportunity to meet him.
She hadn’t heard that Dongfang Wuya would be partaking in these trials.
The moment Dongfang Wuya appeared, she held her breath. It was normally easy for her beauty to capture the attention of men.
But Dongfang Wuya remained focused, his entire attention on the girl beside him.
The girl pulled back her sleeve, but Dongfang Wuya forcibly continued to play with it, sternly eyeing the girl.
Under Dongfang Wuya’s “bullying,” the girl eventually gave up struggling and let him play with her sleeve.
Witnessing this, jealousy ached in Zhao Xueluo’s chest.
Although she was reluctant to admit it, the girl by Dongfang Wuya’s side was truly beautiful in a likable way, refreshing and warm to those who beheld her.
Mustering her courage, she approached Dongfang Wuya and asked, “May I ask if you are Mr. Wuya?”
Dongfang Wuya did not even spare Zhao Xueluo a glance, let alone acknowledge her with his eyes.
Shen Qinghe, seeing this, feared inciting conflict between their sects and intervened, “My uncle prefers not to socialize, Fairy, please don’t be offended.”
Zhao Xueluo took a liking to Shen Qinghe, “May I know Fairy’s esteemed name?”
If she wasn’t mistaken, was the girl in the Foundation Establishment Stage?
Sky Pole Sect, as the number one sect on the South Desolate Continent, brimmed with talented individuals; normally, Foundation Establishment Stage disciples wouldn’t have the opportunity to train in a place like the Red Moon Secret Realm.
Unless she was the legendary talent, Nan Sheng.
Nan Sheng had become a legend on the South Desolate Continent, not just for her Cultivation talent but also for her unfailing allure among men, even managing to break another prodigious youth’s engagement shortly after joining the Sky Pole Sect.
“I am Shen Qinghe,” Shen Qinghe replied politely.
Someone nearby was eavesdropping on Shen Qinghe and Zhao Xueluo’s conversation, and a female disciple from Qianlong Pavilion exclaimed in shock, “Isn’t Shen Qinghe the ex-fiancée that Yan Changsheng discarded?!”
How could Shen Qinghe, with her mortal body, have the opportunity to come to the Red Moon Secret Realm for trials?
For a time, people discussed it noisily, most feeling sympathy for Shen Qinghe’s plight, while others thought that, though Shen Qinghe was a mere beauty, it was perfectly normal for Yan Changsheng to fall for a celestial woman like Nan Sheng.
“Why is no one blaming Yan Changsheng? Clearly, it was Yan Changsheng who broke faith, and it was Nan Sheng who became the third party, interfering with someone else’s relationship. Just because Nan Sheng is a talented girl, she can meddle in other people’s feelings at will?” Zhao Xueluo was quite displeased after hearing everyone’s comments.
Shen Qinghe did nothing wrong, yet she was the one being mocked, which was utterly preposterous.
Instantly, everyone fell silent and turned to look at the people involved.
Shen Qinghe herself was calm and had not spoken a word, but Dongfang Wuya directly cursed, “Anyone who can’t distinguish right from wrong is a bitch!”
The people so cursed didn’t dare utter a sound, they just shut their mouths and backed away a bit.
Dongfang Wuya was not just adored by countless fans but was also the Killing God, known for his reclusive character. Being targeted by such a figure could mean a rather miserable end.
Because of Dongfang Wuya’s curse, the lively scene instantly quieted down.
Shen Qinghe gave Zhao Xueluo an apologetic smile, and Zhao Xueluo returned it with a smile, thinking to herself that Mr. Wuya truly lived up to her idol’s image, looking so dashing even when scolding others.
Just as the atmosphere on the scene became tense, Xiao Chen and Yan Changsheng arrived one after the other.
Both Xiao Chen and Yan Changsheng saw Dongfang Wuya affectionately playing with Shen Qinghe’s sleeve, and Shen Qinghe was actually allowing Dongfang Wuya to take such liberties in public.
This scene made Xiao Chen’s head heat up, and without saying another word, he walked up to Shen Qinghe, grabbed her arm, and tried to pull her away from Dongfang Wuya’s side.
Dongfang Wuya took a step forward, lightly raised an eyebrow, “Where do you plan to take our Qinghe?”
Xiao Chen was almost amused. When did Shen Qinghe become part of Dongfang Wuya’s household? Did this man have no shame?
“I have something to say to Qinghe. I’d appreciate it if Mr. Wuya would step aside,” Xiao Chen said, holding his temper.
Dongfang Wuya looked at Shen Qinghe and asked, “Do you want to go with Xiao Chen?”
“Not at all!” Shen Qinghe immediately replied.

She hardly had anything to do with Xiao Chen on a normal basis, not to mention that Xiao Chen was Nan Sheng’s fiancé. She wondered if this was Nan Sheng’s plot against her.
“Did you hear that? Let go of Shen Qinghe,” Dongfang Wuya said coolly and mockingly, “Don’t forget that you and Nan Sheng are engaged. You’re completely obedient to Nan Sheng. If Shen Qinghe went with you, wouldn’t that be like a lamb entering a tiger’s den?”
Yan Changsheng also found Xiao Chen’s behavior very strange.
Xiao Chen’s fiancée was obviously Nan Sheng, yet he was fixated on Shen Qinghe. What did this make of Nan Sheng?
The way people looked at Xiao Chen was also quite strange.
Everyone had heard, Xiao Chen had snatched Nan Sheng from Yan Changsheng, and they had already verbally agreed to marry. Now, with no sign of Nan Sheng, Xiao Chen targeted Shen Qinghe right after he arrived, a picture that looked bizarre to any observer.
