Was it you that night?
Chapter 135 - 133: A very perverted possessiveness

Chapter 135: Chapter 133: A very perverted possessiveness

Xu Jun held a cup of wine, not sure whether to sit or stand, looking very awkward.

At such a critical moment, Shen Qinghe didn’t dare to make a sound. She felt that if she helped Senior Brother Xu, Mr. Wuya would be even more displeased.

She looked towards Shen Zhiyao, understanding each other without words, a single glance was enough to convey their thoughts.

Shen Zhiyao stepped forward to clink cups with Xu Jun, "I’ll have a drink with Senior Brother Xu!"

This finally eased Xu Jun’s awkward predicament.

He was an honest man, and now he also understood that Dongfang Wuya disliked him, just as Mr. Wuya disliked An Lu.

But he was sure he had no previous issues with Dongfang Wuya, and he couldn’t figure out what he might have done to incur Dongfang Wuya’s aversion.

Xu Jun did not understand the reason behind it, but Shen Zhiyao was very clear about Dongfang Wuya’s strong possessiveness towards Qinghe.

Xu Jun’s earlier respectful tone toward Mr. Wuya clearly treated Qinghe as one of his own, and he had inadvertently placed Mr. Wuya among outsiders.

With Mr. Wuya’s temper, how could he not humiliate Xu Jun in public?

Shen Zhiyao understood the intricacies involved, and as men, Yan Changsheng and Xiao Chen also knew Dongfang Wuya’s special regard for Qinghe.

Dongfang Wuya’s hostility wasn’t just towards Xu Jun; in the Illusory Realm created by Qu Nian, Dongfang Wuya also harbored deep animosity towards both of them.

In summary, whenever a man appeared near Qinghe, Dongfang Wuya felt enmity, indicating an abnormal possessiveness towards Qinghe.

Even if it wasn’t romantic affection, it wasn’t a good sign either.

Unfortunately, they both knew that in terms of cultivation base, it was likely that no one in the entire Sky Pole Sect or the South Desolate Continent could rival Dongfang Wuya.

If Dongfang Wuya were to develop romantic feelings for Qinghe, with his ’me first’ nature, even if Qinghe were unwilling, Dongfang Wuya would force himself upon her.

The only solution was to nip this in the bud.

If they could find a way to make Dongfang Wuya leave the Sky Pole Sect, that would eliminate the obstacle of Dongfang Wuya.

Yet, Xiao Chen and Yan Changsheng shared a similar view, both disliking how Dongfang Wuya acted as if he was half the owner of the Simple Residence Courtyard.

Ever since he arrived, Qinghe had been continuously smiling and drinking with him, and what was most shameless about Dongfang Wuya was his occasional touching of Qinghe, showing no hint of the etiquette or modesty expected from an elder or a person of honor.

Dongfang Wuya sensed the hostile gaze fixed on himself from Yan Changsheng and Xiao Chen. He glanced at them indifferently and said to Shen Qinghe in a voice neither too loud nor too soft, "Shen Qinghe, be careful, someone harbors ill will against you. Some people are hypocrites, full of scheming."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qinghe immediately sat up straight, "If Uncle-Master has anything to say, please speak frankly. I will listen to Uncle-Master."

Did Mr. Wuya discover someone with malicious intent towards her, or did he find out someone was plotting against her?

Was it Nan Sheng, Xiao Chen, or Yan Changsheng?

She felt Yan Changsheng was the least likely to harm her, but Nan Sheng and Xiao Chen were a couple, and it seemed more probable that the pair would conspire against her!

"This Lord is just reminding you that you can’t judge a book by its cover. Some people may appear upright and righteous, but in reality, they are rotten to the core," Dongfang Wuya insinuated, casting a pointed look at Yan Changsheng and Xiao Chen, stopping just short of naming names.

Shen Qinghe looked towards Yan Changsheng and Xiao Chen, meeting the profound gaze of the two male leads.

There was no denying that Dongfang Wuya had a sharp eye and was making a valid point. Both were the male leads in the story, capable of doing anything once they turned dark.

At this moment, the two male leads looked at her with indescribable, ominous expressions in their eyes, perhaps because she had offended Nan Sheng, the female lead.

She suddenly lost all desire to socialize, bowing her head to drink alone in silence.

One good thing about becoming a cultivator was that, if she didn’t want to get drunk, she could drink as much as she liked and still keep a clear head. Right now, she actually wished she could just get drunk and forget about all these troublesome protagonists.

She decided to start intensive cultivation from tomorrow, but not before getting thoroughly drunk today!

However, she quickly remembered that she couldn’t go into seclusion without the protagonists; she still needed them to supply her with spiritual energy.

"Qinghe, you’re drunk," Shen Zhiyao said when she saw Shen Qinghe suddenly drinking heavily, afraid she would go crazy from too much alcohol.

As if her fears summoned the event, after drinking too much, Qinghe started to rant and suddenly pointed at Yan Changsheng’s face, saying, "Scumbag, stay away from me!"

Yan Changsheng wasn’t surprised at all that Shen Qinghe thought of him this way; now that she was drunk, she no longer hid her displeasure with him.

Xiao Chen secretly rejoiced upon seeing Yan Changsheng being scolded by Shen Qinghe as a scumbag, but in the next moment, Shen Qinghe turned to him and pointed at his nose, saying, "You’re a hypocrite, perfectly matched with that slut Nan Sheng!"

The room fell into an awkward silence, everyone watching Shen Qinghe’s drunken tirade with the urge to laugh, yet not daring to do so.

Xiao Chen and Yan Changsheng were both the pride of Sky Pole Sect, usually the center of admiration; even if they had flaws, their fellow disciples wouldn’t dare to point them out to their faces.

But the drunk Shen Qinghe dared to expose their shortcomings.

Hadn’t Yan Changsheng’s actions after meeting Nan Sheng been exactly like those of a scumbag?

And Xiao Chen, in his obsession with Nan Sheng, had been completely unreasonable, attacking the Shen sisters and ultimately harming Shen Qinghe.

"And you..."

Shen Qinghe suddenly turned to Nan Sheng’s face, "Greedy, fickle, selfish; just because you’re the female lead, what’s so great about that? You think you can harm my elder sister? We’ll see if I’ll let you... uh..."

Seeing that Shen Qinghe had spilled everything, Shen Zhiyao hurriedly covered her mouth, gently saying, "Qinghe, you’re drunk."

Shen Qinghe forcefully removed Shen Zhiyao’s hand, "I’m not drunk at all."

She looked around the room, pointing at An Lu’s face, "And you, you supporting character, same as Nan Sheng, birds of a feather. If you like Mr. Wuya, why don’t you try harder? Why would you harm my elder sister... Elder sister died so horribly..."

Shen Zhiyao looked at everyone’s confused faces with embarrassment, "Please forgive us, our Qinghe starts talking nonsense when she drinks too much."

"I told you, I’m not drunk," Shen Qinghe insisted, looking around until she finally found Dongfang Wuya.

She ran up to Dongfang Wuya, staring at him with bright eyes.

Just when everyone thought Shen Qinghe would also start berating Dongfang Wuya, she suddenly crouched down in front of him, exclaiming, "Uncle Master, your face is really, really handsome!"

A flicker of amusement passed through Dongfang Wuya’s eyes, but before he could fully enjoy the moment, he heard Shen Qinghe accuse, "Although Uncle Master is handsome and his cultivation base is impressive, his temper is just too bad."

Dongfang Wuya’s smile faded, while the others struggled to hold back their laughter.

Who in the entire Sky Pole Sect would dare to speak such blunt truths to Dongfang Wuya’s face?

Even Sect Master Zuo would nod and bow in the presence of Mr. Wuya; who wouldn’t shrink in stature around him?

Only Shen Qinghe dared to tell Mr. Wuya to his face that he had a bad temper.
