Was it you that night?
Chapter 110 - 108: Shen Qinghe, I want to live with you!

Chapter 110: Chapter 108: Shen Qinghe, I want to live with you!

"This must be an Illusory Realm, right? Otherwise, how could the scene have changed so quickly?"

Just when Xiao Chen was puzzled, a fat old woman came up to them and asked, "Are you two young masters also here to seek a marriage? The Second Miss will be holding a martial arts competition for marriage soon. Please wait over there."

Dongfang Wuya glanced around and asked indifferently, "Who is the Second Miss?"

The old woman replied irritably, "Of course, it’s the Second Miss Shen of Divine Sword Villa! Our young lady was originally betrothed, but the Young City Lord fell in love with someone else on the eve of their wedding. After finding out, the Second Miss voluntarily broke off the engagement. The martial arts competition is personally organized by the Villa Master. Only young men with high martial arts skills have the chance to marry the Second Miss of Divine Sword Villa. It’s a great fortune, so it depends on which young master has such luck."

Xiao Chen secretly felt alarmed upon hearing this and hurriedly asked, "May I ask what place this is?"

"Of course, it’s Snow Bone City!" The old woman looked at Xiao Chen suspiciously, "Young master doesn’t know where this is?"

Xiao Chen’s expression changed at her words, and he looked toward Dongfang Wuya.

Dongfang Wuya’s expression was stern as he surveyed the surroundings.

What kind of demon could easily create an Illusory Realm? Unless something unexpected had occurred, the other party had stolen Shen Qinghe’s memories to create this Illusory Realm.

The fact that the demon had kidnapped Shen Qinghe and stolen her memories in such a short time, creating this illusion, indicated that the demon’s Cultivation Base was not to be underestimated.

"Who is Aunt Zhang talking to?" Shen Qinghe’s voice came from ahead.

The old woman turned around, her face full of smiles, "Two handsome young masters who are strangers to this place have arrived. If the young lady likes, she could take both of them home. The Villa Master has said that anyone the young lady likes can be brought back to Divine Sword Villa. There are many great men in this world; it’s not necessary for the young lady to only want Yan Changsheng!"

Shen Qinghe was surprised when she got a clear look at Xiao Chen and Dongfang Wuya’s faces.

"Xiao Chen, how come you’re here?"

Aunt Zhang was stunned at this and exclaimed, "The young lady knows this young master?"

"Xiao Chen and Changsheng are good friends; they grew up together. I have known them both since we were kids; how could I not recognize Xiao Chen?" Shen Qinghe was rather perplexed.

Dongfang Wuya and Xiao Chen both realized that Shen Qinghe’s current memories were about Snow Bone City.

When Shen Qinghe’s gaze fell on Dongfang Wuya’s face, she thought this red-clothed young master was very handsome, giving her a sense of familiarity as if she had met him before, and she felt very close to this young master.

"I want to participate in the martial arts competition for marriage!" Xiao Chen suddenly made a decision.

If this was an Illusory Realm, could he indulge himself for once?

However, when Shen Qinghe heard Xiao Chen’s words, she shook her head, "You cannot participate! I know you like Nan Sheng as well. If you think participating in the martial arts competition to win face for Changsheng, then you’re making a mistake."

Xiao Chen’s face turned pale, "Qinghe, it’s not what you think between Nan Sheng and me."

"I only believe what I see." Shen Qinghe said, making it a point to keep a close watch on Xiao Chen not to let him get the chance to participate in the competition and ruin her marriage prospects.

Seeing Shen Qinghe about to leave with her servants, Dongfang Wuya raised his voice and asked, "Shen Qinghe, I am new here, may I stay in your residence for a few days?"

You-Learn-Curiosity piqued by Dongfang Wuya’s self-professed ’Mister’ title and his initiation of conversation, Shen Qinghe couldn’t help but feel curious, "Who are you, sir, and do you know me?"

"I am a Cultivator and have some history with you," Dongfang Wuya said, looking at the girl before him who seemed both familiar and strange, his expression distracted.

At this moment, Shen Qinghe looked at him with eyes full of strangeness, not the full trust as she had shown back at the Sky Pole Sect, which made him feel uncomfortable.

She was still leaning in his arms last night, refusing to let him leave no matter what.

Before entering the Illusory Realm, he had been worried that Shen Qinghe would see him and hold him accountable, but to his surprise, their next meeting would be under such circumstances.

At this moment, Aunt Zhang leaned in close to Shen Qinghe and said, "The miss is about to hold a martial arts competition for marriage. This young man is so handsome; I fear he might be a pillow with no real substance, looking to win favor by proximity. The miss must be cautious."

Dongfang Wuya, upon hearing this, couldn’t help but laugh in anger. He looked at Shen Qinghe with a cold eye, his words laced with threat, "Shen Qinghe, I am commanding you, not asking for your opinion!"

Aunt Zhang was dumbfounded and, shaking with excitement, pointed at Dongfang Wuya, "Who... who gave you the right to be so rude to the miss?!"

Shen Qinghe, however, felt that Dongfang Wuya’s arrogant attitude suited his character, thinking that he should indeed be so unrivaled and haughtily self-centered.

How odd, how did she know what kind of person this man was?

"Auntie, do not be disrespectful to the cultivator."

Shen Qinghe stopped Aunt Zhang, and then ordered, "Prepare a top-quality Guest Courtyard for this cultivator."

At this, Dongfang Wuya made another demand, overstepping his bounds, "Shen Qinghe, I want to live with you!"

"How dare you!!" Aunt Zhang had never seen such a wild and arrogant person, and wanted to have Dongfang Wuya thrown out.

Upon seeing Aunt Zhang’s outburst, Shen Qinghe found the scene somewhat festive.

However, the red-clothed cultivator didn’t look at Aunt Zhang directly, his gaze fixed on her intently, as if looking at an enemy, yet she still found this red-clothed cultivator very familiar, not intimidating at all.

"I said, I want to live with you!" Dongfang Wuya coldly commanded Shen Qinghe.

"Prepare accommodations for this cultivator next to my Side Courtyard where I reside," Shen Qinghe said before walking away.

She had many more things to attend to and certainly didn’t have time to waste on Dongfang Wuya.

And so, Dongfang Wuya moved into the Divine Sword Villa, while Xiao Chen was turned away.

He didn’t even have the qualifications to participate in the martial arts competition for marriage, which frustrated him greatly. Later, he came up with a clever idea, to enter the competition under another’s name.

After Cai Xin had settled Dongfang Wuya, she came to Shen Qinghe to complain, "The miss doesn’t know how difficult Mr. Wuya is to serve; one moment, he complains that the Side Courtyard is too modest, then criticizes the old-fashioned color of the furniture, and later on bemoans the bed being too small..."

Towards the end, Cai Xin added, "He even requested the miss to see him, he acts as if he were the miss’s master to those unaware."

So what if he’s more handsome than anyone else? Although her heart raced and she blushed at the sight of Dongfang Wuya’s face, his character really was unlikable.

Remembering Dongfang Wuya, Shen Qinghe muttered softly, "I don’t know why, but whenever I see Mr. Wuya, I feel a sense of familiarity, as if we’ve met before."

"The miss couldn’t have fallen for Mr. Wuya, could she? The miss is meant to select a husband through the martial arts competition, but I’ve probed a little, and Mr. Wuya will not be participating."

If Mr. Wuya liked the miss, why wouldn’t he participate in the martial arts competition for marriage? The miss had just climbed out of Yan Changsheng’s pit; she must not fall into Mr. Wuya’s romantic trap.
