"Yun Che… you and Senior Master…"
Wushuang had a weird expression on her face.
No matter what she thought, she couldn't understand Yun Che's reason for being inside Yuechan's room.
It confused her.
"Miss Shui, please don't think too much about it. As I've said, I had something to talk about with Fairy Chu, that's all."
"I see…"
Wushuang could only nod her head.
She had utmost trust in Yuechan, so even though she didn't understand or know Yun Che's reason for being inside Yuechan's room, she trusted Yuechan and believed that it should be because of some reason which she was unaware of.
"Then, if you'll excuse me, I have some matters to attend to."
"You're not going to meet Qingyue?" Wushuang asked, surprised.
"No, not today." Yun Che shook his head and replied before turning around and vanishing into the darkness of the night, leaving behind a contemplating Wushuang.
Some time later, at Sword Management Terrace.
This place was several times larger than Sword Discourse Arena, where the ranking tournament was taking place.
Hundreds of thousands of swords hovered in the sky, and swords of various shapes and sizes filled the ground too. In the center, a huge pitch-black sword was inserted.
Tonight, the moon was hidden behind the clouds, so there was complete darkness around the Sword Management Terrace.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and Yun Che appeared in front of the pitch-black sword.
In the darkness, his eyes glowed brilliantly gold.
He placed his hand over the sword and softly rubbed it, already knowing that beneath this place, his only blood relative on this continent was sealed — his grandfather!
"Knock, knock. Anybody there? Of course not."
He suddenly chuckled.
It was going to be a fruitful night for him!
…
..
.
"What… did you say?" Eyes burning with silent fury and disbelief, Yufeng looked at the person before her.
The person trembled, feeling the unhidden anger in her voice, and hurriedly said, "Villa Mistress, I'm only reporting what I saw! Some time ago, the Villa Master went to visit the residence of Asgard, but he was denied any talk from Fairy Chu, so he could only leave unwillingly. From his expression, it is estimated that he was—"
"Shut up!" Yufeng barked, causing the person to take a fearful step backward. He didn't want to be at the receiving end of her anger!
"Yuefeng… oh Yuefeng…" Suddenly, laughter filled the silent courtyard, scaring the person before her. "You said you don't love her anymore, yet you go and meet her at night. Just how much are you going to play with my feelings! I devoted my everything to you, and yet you… you… hehehahaha!"
'Ugh… She completely lost it. Mommy… please get me out of here. I don't want to be the sandbag that used to quench her anger!' The reporting person thought, staring at the crazily laughing Yufeng with a scared gaze.
A second later, she suddenly stopped.
Her eyes glowed in purple, sending chills down the reporting person, as she looked down at him.
"You said Yun Che has been visiting Asgard's residence for a week now, right?"
At first, Yun Che indeed hid his presence when going to meet Qingyue, but then when he felt the presence of people spying a distance away from the Asgard residence, checking who visited them, a smile appeared over his face.
He didn't need an expert to tell him that it was Yufeng who was spying on the people visiting Asgard's Residence.
It is estimated that she was making sure Yuefeng, her husband, didn't visit them.
Knowing this, he stopped hiding himself when visiting Qingyue. He wanted to know what she would do with this information.
"Yes! Yun Che, the disciple from the Blue Wind Profound Palace, has been seen visiting Asgard's Residence every night for a week now! Even last night… he was there before the Villa Master arrived! And a disciple from Asgard, Shui Wushuang, personally escorted him to exit!"
'Yuefeng… Ah Yuefeng! What kind of reaction would you show when I tell you that the woman you have been infatuated with for such a long time whored herself to a junior! I'm sure it would be a sight to behold!'
Not aware of the fact that Yuefeng had already come to know about Yun Che's relationship with Yuechang, Yufeng smiled viciously.
She wanted to destroy Yuefeng's hopes of ever being together with Yuechan.
She thought, if Yuefeng knew about Yuechan's hidden relationship, he would definitely never pursue Yuechan ever again! He might even hate her!
Thinking, she looked at the person and waved her hand.
"You may leave."
"Thank you, Villa Mistress!" The person, as if granted another life, bowed and vanished!
The silence fell within the courtyard, and Yufeng turned around and left.
With a smile on her face, she made her way towards their private residence.
Sometime later, she appeared in her private residence and saw Yuefeng sitting beside the window, staring at the sky blankly.
Seeing this, Yufeng snorted.
"Yuefeng, I see that the 'love of your life' rejected you once more. Does it feel good?"
"Yufeng…" Yuefeng saw Yufeng and sighed. "I am not in the mood for arguing with you. If that's all you have to say, you may leave. I want to spend tonight alone."
"Heh!" Yufeng sneered. "Why? Are you hurt? Didn't you say that you have left your love for that whore in the past? Why are you acting all melancholy then? Don't tell me you were lying! Yuefeng, believe it or not, I will have my father destroy that Asgard of yours!"
"Yufeng!" Yuefeng shouted. His face contorted with anger, and he glared at Yufeng. "Say another word, and I will slap you!"
"You…" Yufeng's eyes widened.
She couldn't believe what Yuefeng just said!
Suddenly, the accumulated anger burst out of her body, and she glared at Yuefeng.
"Why?! Are you that mad that that bitch slept with a junior instead of you?!" she shouted. With a vicious smirk on her face, she continued. "I would like to see the face of that bitch once the truth of her whoring to a junior becomes public! Yuefeng, you have been infatuated with that bitch for decades! Even though I've left everything just to be with you, you still haven't forgotten her! Believe it or not! Once I announce everything to the public, that bitch is dying!"
SLAP!
The silence fell.
Yufeng's eyes widened.
With her hand over the slapped cheek, she looked at Yuefeng with disbelief written over her face.
She couldn't believe he really hit her over a woman who ignored him since their meeting! He ignored her, his wife, over a random woman!
Yuefeng also seemed to realize what he just did.
But what was done was done, he couldn't change it.
He hurriedly walked closer to Yufeng and hugged her.
"Wife… I'm sorry… I—"
"Stay away!"
Yufeng pushed Yuefeng away from her.
Tears fell from her eyes as she stared at Yuefeng with disbelief. From a glance, one could tell that she was trying her best not to sob.
"Wife…"
Not answering him, Yufeng turned around and left, leaving behind a silent Yuefeng.
A loud sigh left his mouth.
The room returned to silence.
…
..
.
A new day arrived.
Yun Che stared silently at the letter in his hand while Cang Yue fought with her opponent on the stage.
Unlike yesterday, her opponent was from the Heavenly Spear Thunderfire Fortress, who withdrew from the fight the moment she entered the stage, pushing Cang Yue into the quarterfinals easily.
It couldn't be helped.
After all, in front of absolute force, they didn't want to waste time just to get hurt!
Walking back to Yun Che, Cang Yue curiously asked, "Brother Yun, what is this?"
"It's an invitation to dinner," Yun Che replied.
Cang Yue raised a curious brow before asking, "From whom?"
Yun Che remained silent for a second before replying, "Villa Mistress."
His answer caused everyone's eyes to widen.
They looked at the letter in Yun Che's hand with confusion and surprise.
"But why would the Villa Mistress invite Brother Yun for dinner? Brother Yun hasn't even shown his strength so far."
"Right?" Yun Che had a mysterious smile formed over his face as he added, "This really makes people excited. I wonder what she has to say, for her to personally invite me for dinner, she is definitely cooking something behind the scenes."
"Then…" Cang Yue worriedly looked at Yun Che. Thinking for a second, she decided, "I'll go with Brother Yun too!"
She knew she was weaker than Yun Che, and anything which Yun Che couldn't handle, she couldn't either.
But thinking of Yun Che being in any trouble made her heart constricted! She pursued strength so she could stand beside Yun Che, like an immovable force, which would protect him from all the evil!
So even if she was weak, Cang Yue thought she should be beside Yun Che and not sleep in her bed!
"No." But Yun Che shook his head and denied her idea of accompanying him. "Since she has invited me, I'll go alone. There is no need for you to come with me."
"But…"
"No buts." Yun Che smiled and softly caressed Cang Yue's hair and said, "I doubt there is anyone who can do anything to your Brother Yun within this continent, especially in this small empire."
"..."
After thinking for a while, Cang Yue could only nod and agree to his decision.
Just then, Yun Che thought of something and looked at Cang Yue.
Seeing her worried face, he smiled and said, "Yue'er, there is something I need to inform you."
"Hm?"
