Chapter 277 - 275: They Are All Threatening Her

Chapter 277: Chapter 275: They Are All Threatening Her

"Did you know Dongfang Wuya’s true identity from the beginning?!" Yan Changsheng rushed forward and questioned.

"At first, I wasn’t quite sure, even though he looked the same and had the same name, but his mana seemed inferior to Mr. Wuya’s. It wasn’t until Dongfang was about to marry Qinghe that I released the news about Dongfang Wuya, and then the Moon Emperor came to Sky Pole Sect, and that’s when I confirmed that Dongfang Wuya was indeed the same Mr. Wuya from before," Xiao Chen said, revealing a bitter smile. "Originally, I wanted to live a quiet life and not get involved in the affairs of the Three Realms again, but who knew I would fall for Qinghe..."

Little did he know he still couldn’t resist Shen Qinghe’s temptation.

When he awakened his Divine Power, he would become battle-hungry and bloodthirsty, just like before.

Fifty million years ago, Yan Changsheng joined forces with him. During his battle with Dongfang Wuya, Yan Changsheng took the opportunity to abduct Shen Qinghe, and later allowed Dongfang Wuya to witness with his own eyes Shen Qinghe lying on Yan Changsheng’s bed in disheveled clothes.

They used this method to deliberately enrage Dongfang Wuya, intending to kill him. But instead of slaughtering Dongfang Wuya, it led to him destroying the Three Realms in a fit of rage, a tragedy that remained vivid in their memory.

And he knew well that the reason Dongfang Wuya was so furious was because of a woman.

When he realized he had fallen for Shen Qinghe, he could feel the suppressed Divine Power within him threatening to burst forth. That’s why he chose to get engaged to Nan Sheng.

Yet, in the end, he couldn’t escape the trap of love, and what he didn’t expect was that Shen Qinghe was the very woman who had driven Dongfang Wuya mad.

Tens of thousands of years ago, he only knew Dongfang Wuya and Yan Changsheng made such a fuss over a woman. He joined the battle because he was belligerent by nature, wanting to compete with Dongfang Wuya, which then led to such a tragedy.

Previously, he could not understand why Yan Changsheng and Dongfang Wuya would make such a disgraceful commotion over a woman. Now that he was in the same situation, he found that the matters of the heart were beyond one’s control.

Even if Shen Qinghe had not the slightest romantic feelings for him, he still couldn’t bear to just watch her live happily ever after with Dongfang Wuya. That’s why he was willing to awaken his Divine Power and pursued her to the Heaven Realm.

Yan Changsheng frowned and looked at Xiao Chen, "So, you want to marry Qinghe because you have fallen for her?"

What is this mess?

He actually failed to see that Xiao Chen had indecent intentions toward Qinghe?

"What else? I became infatuated with her on that Mid-Autumn Festival long ago; I just didn’t want to admit my own feelings. If I had realized this sooner, I wouldn’t have had to watch Qinghe and Mr. Wuya end up together," Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows lightly, "Now that things have come to this, only by joining forces with you do we stand a chance of defeating Dongfang Wuya. Right, didn’t you trap Mr. Wuya on the day of his wedding? We should try that again and trap Mr. Wuya..."

Dongfang Wuya heard Yan Changsheng and Xiao Chen’s conversation clearly. He turned to ask Shen Qinghe, "Did Yan Changsheng ever trap me?"

"Indeed, he trapped you in a reversal of time-space. Why do you suddenly ask about this?" Shen Qinghe stared steadily at Dongfang Wuya.

Dongfang Wuya sneered coldly, "Isn’t it because of your troublesome admirers that Yan Changsheng and Xiao Chen have chased us to the Heaven Realm?" He coldly fixed his gaze, "Truly persistent ghosts. I never expected you, woman, to be so restless, even the Ancestral Dragon, who is fond of warfare, could not let you be."

"Ancestral Dragon? You can’t mean Big Senior Brother, can you?" Shen Qinghe knew only of Xiao Chen as a dragon.

She knew from the original text that Xiao Chen was a dragon, but she didn’t know he was the Ancestral Dragon.

"Big Senior Brother, Big Senior Brother, you say it with such familiarity," Dongfang Wuya was speaking sarcastically and then felt something was amiss.

The next moment, Yan Changsheng and Xiao Chen appeared inside the Imperial Palace.

Xiao Chen’s gaze fell upon Shen Qinghe, and he smiled slightly, "Qinghe, you know that Mr. Wuya has committed countless slaughters, how could you be with him? Come, I will take you back to Sky Pole Sect."

Though Shen Qinghe could not remember events from hundreds of thousands of years ago, everyone in the Three Realms knew that the Ancestral Dragon was the Ancient War God.

She could have never envisioned the seemingly refined and cultured Xiao Chen to be the most belligerent dragon of the Three Realms.

Xiao Chen’s smile made her scalp tingle even more.

She moved closer to Dongfang Wuya. Though Dongfang Wuya looked fierce and intimidating, he was, in fact, a man with a gentle heart.

Besides, sometimes Dongfang Wuya would listen to her advice.

No matter what, Dongfang Wuya would never be as secretive and sly as Xiao Chen.

When Xiao Chen noticed this detail, he didn’t get angry but instead laughed, "If you come with me, I can still reconcile with Mr. Wuya. But if you are determined to follow Mr. Wuya, then the Three Realms will never have peace."

Shen Qinghe’s beautiful eyebrows slightly furrowed, "Are you threatening me?"

Did she look like someone who could be threatened?

Xiao Chen didn’t want Shen Qinghe to despise him, so he softened his tone, "I am helping you to see the situation clearly..."

"Shen Qinghe, if you dare to leave with this colorful dragon, I will immediately bloodbath the Three Realms!" Dongfang Wuya interrupted Xiao Chen.

Threats, who couldn’t make them?

The color in Shen Qinghe’s eyes became icy cold as she responded indifferently, "If you dare to do such an atrocious act, I will leave right now!"

Dongfang Wuya, however, discerned the implication in her words, "So you mean to follow this lord?"

Shen Qinghe: ...

Dongfang Wuya was secretly overjoyed. With his mood lifted, he found it easier to look at Xiao Chen and Yan Changsheng, his two romantic rivals.

He said to his rivals, "I am about to marry Shen Qinghe. I allow you to stay and celebrate with us at the wedding feast!"

Having these two witness him marry Shen Qinghe would surely tear their hearts apart!

Yan Changsheng felt that Dongfang Wuya was being excessively oppressive and was about to retort when Xiao Chen gave him a pacifying look and said with a nonchalant smile, "Good, I too would like to see if your union with Qinghe can truly come to pass. Besides, Qinghe has not agreed to marry you yet, has she?"

Given Shen Qinghe’s stubborn nature, if she didn’t want to marry Dongfang Wuya, there was nothing he could do.

"Of course, Shen Qinghe is willing to marry this lord!" Dongfang Wuya said while glancing at Shen Qinghe.

Shen Qinghe looked away, not directly responding to Dongfang Wuya.

She liked the Dongfang Wuya from the Sky Pole Sect who spoiled her in every way. Moreover, she didn’t remember what had happened between herself and this Dongfang Wuya fifty thousand years ago, and marrying him now in such a confused state was honestly not what she wanted.

Seeing Shen Qinghe not speaking, the smile deepened in Dongfang Wuya’s eyes, "Shen Qinghe’s silence means consent. She’s just shy. The day of our marriage will be set soon, and you all will be invited to the wedding feast!"

He was impatient to deal with Yan Changsheng and Xiao Chen anymore and wanted to send them away.

Before leaving, Xiao Chen gave Shen Qinghe one last piece of advice, "Qinghe, I know you do not wish to marry Mr. Wuya. If you don’t want to marry, no one can force you!"

Dongfang Wuya didn’t expect Xiao Chen to stoop so low. He was about to personally send them away when Xiao Chen and Yan Changsheng had already left the Imperial Palace.
