Was it you that night?
Chapter 194 - 192: In the end, Wuya married Nan Sheng

Chapter 194: Chapter 192: In the end, Wuya married Nan Sheng

"Then I wish you the opposite of what you want," said Shen Qinghe, the corners of her lips slightly curved.

Nan Sheng sneered and repeated, "They are all mine, you can’t take them from me!"

"Mm-hmm, except for Mr. Wuya, they are all yours," replied Shen Qinghe nonchalantly.

Nan Sheng immediately seized on the key point in Shen Qinghe’s words, plotting in her heart, "You just reminded me. Mr. Wuya is the person you care about the most. If I take Mr. Wuya away from you..."

"It’s not dark yet, I advise you to dream at night. Mr. Wuya isn’t blind, how could he have eyes for you?" Shen Qinghe usually disliked such topics, but she wouldn’t allow Nan Sheng to lay a finger on Mr. Wuya.

Mr. Wuya is worthy of the best woman in the Three Realms; Nan Sheng, with her fickle nature, what has she to match with Mr. Wuya?

"But I am the female lead, and Mr. Wuya is the male lead; he is destined to be my man. Don’t you also know? In the end, Mr. Wuya married me." As she spoke, Nan Sheng’s face hardly concealed her smugness.

Shen Qinghe’s complexion changed slightly, "You’re lying!"

Seeing Shen Qinghe’s face finally change, Nan Sheng’s smile deepened, "What, didn’t you know the ending is Mr. Wuya taking me as his wife?"

Shen Qinghe’s complexion turned ugly, unable to respond.

She hadn’t seen the end of this book, naturally not knowing who Nan Sheng ended up with; could it be true as Nan Sheng said, Mr. Wuya married her in the end?

Seeing herself finally turn the tables, Nan Sheng felt thoroughly relaxed and content.

Following that, she threw out another sentence: "Not just that, I later bore Mr. Wuya two children, and we were very affectionate. Qinghe, you will bless me, won’t you?"

The moment her words ended, she met Shen Qinghe’s fierce gaze.

She stepped back in shock, "What do you want to do?!"

Shen Qinghe regained her composure and looked towards the platform, speaking deliberately word by word, "Rest assured, you won’t have the chance to touch Mr. Wuya, I won’t agree to it."

Nan Sheng sneered upon hearing this, "You should think about what role you play. You should have turned into clumps of earth by now; I’m the female lead, what I want, I never fail to get!"

"Is that so? But I just saved Meng Yun yesterday," said Shen Qinghe before walking away.

At that moment, Shen Zhiyao hurried over. From afar, she saw Qinghe talking with Nan Sheng, noting Nan Sheng’s radiant smile; she felt something was wrong, so she eavesdropped on their conversation.

The two sisters soon moved away from the platform.

"Nan Sheng’s words may not be true; don’t worry too much, I think she’s mostly trying to provoke you," said Shen Zhiyao, relieved that Qinghe hadn’t yet fallen for Dongfang Wuya; otherwise, she’d have been infuriated by Nan Sheng.

Nan Sheng knows how to disgust people; listening to it made her angry, and how much more for Qinghe, who regards Mr. Wuya as one of her own?

"I think what she said is very likely true; if Mr. Wuya truly married that woman, he might often end up cuckolded." Shen Qinghe couldn’t bear to imagine such a scenario.

How could a proud man like Mr. Wuya be trampled by a woman like Nan Sheng?

Shen Zhiyao found Shen Qinghe’s train of thought both amusing and frustrating, but given Nan Sheng’s restless nature, she might indeed do something detestable.

At that moment, Shen Qinghe had no interest in watching the match anymore, she just wanted to find Dongfang Wuya, to keep him away from Nan Sheng, to avoid him being poisoned by her.

Yan Changsheng, who was glad to see Shen Qinghe watching the match from down below, became concerned when Nan Sheng arrived, and after a few words, Qinghe’s face changed.

Curious, he eavesdropped on the two beauties’ conversation, only to hear Qinghe say she wouldn’t let Nan Sheng touch Dongfang Wuya, and Nan Sheng declaring herself as the female lead. He couldn’t fathom the meaning of their words.

So, did Qinghe storm off because Nan Sheng wanted to beat Dongfang Wuya?

Was Qinghe so angry because Dongfang Wuya had once saved her life, or was it because she was actually in a marital relationship with Dongfang Wuya?

Considering the latter possibility, the heart demon within Yan Changsheng began to stir again.

At this moment, Yan Changsheng thought, why not just let Nan Sheng have her way and marry Dongfang Wuya? That way, he would have the chance to stay by Qinghe’s side.

Shen Qinghe didn’t care about the results of Yan Changsheng’s competition, but Yan Changsheng still impressed quite a few people in the arena.

There were only a little over ten Cultivators in the Emergence Stage on the entire South Desolate Continent, so the results of the round could be quickly determined, and Yan Changsheng’s opponent was a Cultivator at the Nascent Soul Completion Stage.

Yet, this Cultivator, who should have overshadowed Yan Changsheng in terms of cultivation base, ended up being gravely wounded by Yan Changsheng, making Yan Changsheng the most prominent figure in this competition.

With the competition results out, the four young Cultivators chosen by Zuo An all advanced to the second round.

But in terms of fame, Shen Qinghe was slightly more renowned due to her swordsmanship reaching an unparalleled level. Moreover, her ambiguous and rumored relationship with Dongfang Wuya added plenty of fodder for gossip.

Most importantly, Shen Qinghe never showed her face, always wearing a veil hat wherever she went, which added a sense of mystery and fodder for discussion.

Shen Zhiyao, wherever she went, heard everyone talking about her sister, and as her elder sister, she was very pleased. She walked with a breeze and told everyone that Qinghe was her precious younger sister, which made Shen Qinghe both amused and exasperated.

That evening, when Shen Qinghe was about to take Shen Zhiyao to rest, Xiao Bai suddenly appeared, conveying a message that Dongfang Wuya was asking for her.

Shen Zhiyao asked curiously, "Does Mr. Wuya really need to see Qinghe at this time?"

It was already dark, what could not be said during the day?

"I am merely following orders," Xiao Bai replied with a smile.

"Elder sister, I will be back soon," Shen Qinghe said as she prepared to follow Xiao Bai.

After walking a few steps, she turned back and left the Black and White Rope with Shen Zhiyao.

Shen Zhiyao felt she was being too cautious, yet there was warmth in her heart, "It’s your Life-bound Magic Treasure, you should keep it with you. I’ll be in the Guest Courtyard, nothing will happen to me."

"I feel more at ease this way," said Shen Qinghe before following Xiao Bai away.

Shen Zhiyao could only laugh in resignation, touching the Black and White Rope, which, too lazy to bother with her, coiled itself around her wrist.

Soon after Shen Qinghe left, a male cultivator from Sky Pole Sect with the surname Zheng came looking for Shen Zhiyao, informing her that Shu Xiu was missing.

Shen Zhiyao, who was usually very close to Shu Xiu, became anxious upon hearing that Shu Xiu had disappeared and immediately followed Senior Brother Zheng to search for her whereabouts.

She searched all the Guest Courtyards in Yuheng Mountain and found no trace of Shu Xiu, becoming increasingly worried.

Senior Brother Zheng, seeing her worry, suggested, "Let’s split up to look for Shu Xiu. You go this way, I’ll go that way. Don’t panic, we’ll find her eventually."

Shen Zhiyao took his word for it and headed towards the southern summit as directed by Senior Brother Zheng.

After walking for half a mile, she felt walking was too slow and decided to use Sword Control. However, when she tried to control her sword, it didn’t respond, something that had never happened before.

After several attempts, the result was the same.

Just as she was bustling around trying to figure it out, Wu Ke’s voice suddenly pierced the silence, "Stop wasting your effort; this place is strange, and Sword Control is impossible."
