Chapter 1618 - Mind, Yuan Xiaoman

Upon hearing the words, Yuan Xiaoman and Yuan Zhixin suddenly understood, and their gazes towards Gong Shaoqing became slightly mocking.

From the moment they met Gong Shaoqing until now, he had always maintained a cold and distant demeanor, keeping people at arm's length.

If they hadn't spent enough time with Gong Shaoqing, they wouldn't have known that he was actually a good person.

For an ordinary person, just looking at Gong Shaoqing's unapproachable appearance would likely discourage any attempts to get close.

However, it had to be said that both Gong Shaoqing and Dongfang Yu were incredibly charismatic men.

During the assessment competition, there were quite a few girls who admired them, and their eyes alone revealed their feelings.

Fortunately, female cultivators were not as aggressive as male cultivators, and they tended to be more shy and reserved.

So, Dongfang Yu and the others never had conflicts because of such matters, but Hongzhuang was often troubled by them.

"I never expected that there would always be someone waiting for Shaoqing outside. He should cherish it," Yuan Zhixin said with a smile.

As he looked at the affectionate expressions of his eldest brother and Emperor Beichen, he couldn't help but feel a difficult-to-express shock and envy in his heart.

If one day he could also find such a partner, it would undoubtedly be an extremely happy thing.

Two years had passed, and they were not young anymore.

Ordinary people of their age would have already married and had children, or gotten married and had children themselves. It was only because they were cultivators that they were slightly delayed.

However, seeing their peers in the cultivation world already having their loved ones, they couldn't help but feel envious.

Yuan Xiaoman couldn't help but look at Bai Junyu, feeling that it was time for her to express her feelings to him.

After spending so much time together, she knew what kind of person Bai Junyu was.

She was always a proactive woman, and when she encountered someone she liked, she would courageously pursue them.

If Bai Junyu had been silent all this time, she wouldn't mind confessing her feelings herself.

After all, it wasn't a good thing to keep things in this state indefinitely.

Back during the assessment competition, because they could encounter dangers at any time, matters of love and romance were naturally put aside.

Now that they had successfully returned to the Shengxuan Continent, it was time to embark on such matters.

Gong Shaoqing's expression became slightly complicated. Despite everyone speaking to him like this, his feelings for Qin Yue had not reached that stage yet.

He had always regarded Qin Yue as his younger sister.

That was why they had been together for so long without growing closer.

He didn't want to hurt Qin Yue. Even if he ended up with her, it would only hurt her more if his feelings for her were not love.

Clearly, no one understood his thoughts, and he didn't want to say more.

Many times, no matter how outstanding a woman was or how well she treated you, if there wasn't that stirring feeling, she would still only be like a sister.

He didn't want to disappoint Qin Yue.

At the very least, he needed to be sure of his own feelings before he could be responsible to Qin Yue.

Seeing Gong Shaoqing fall into silence, nobody spoke further on the matter.

"I really didn't expect Moyun Jue to be the Young Lord of the Shitian Tower. It's truly astonishing!" Yuan Zhixin exclaimed.

"I've always admired the Shitian Tower. They operate in the darkness, with a terrifying network of information. There's almost no one they can't kill.

The Young Lord of the Shitian Tower is even more mysterious, never revealing his true appearance."
