Chapter 1190: Chapter 1190: Xia Yunchen: Aruan is delicate and frail, don’t bully her

Recalling those terrifying memories, the Evil Qi and murderous intent emanating from Chaos were retracted cleanly.

Under Song Qing’s seemingly amused gaze, Chaos grimaced and rubbed his nose, looking towards the second floor just like Rong Menglan.

The other people around them did mostly the same, patiently waiting for the protagonist who summoned them today.

Seeing that the two ferocious beasts no longer clashed, the large hall regained its silent atmosphere—so quiet that even breathing was inaudible, making the scene appear very eerie.

Today, fifty-two clans of Ancient Divine Beasts and other awakened mystical creatures had all gathered here. Among them, some rogue creatures did not obey the Fox Clan, but as soon as the Divine Monarch of the Fox Clan issued a command, they would rush over even if it meant going through a mountain of knives or a sea of fire.

The Nine-tailed Foxes were Ancient Divine Beasts, and Tu Mountain, where they resided, was a land rich in Spiritual Energy. Many mystical creatures dared not contend for this territory; given the Fox Clan’s extreme combat prowess, they relied on absorbing Spiritual Energy from the Three Realms to enhance their physical strength and had mastered the technique of eternal youth to an exquisite degree.

Because of their power, the Nine-tailed Foxes led the various mystical creatures.

It was rumored that Nine-tailed Foxes possessed tens of thousands of years of lifespan. Even in desperate situations, they could regenerate by severing their tails and grow new ones during later stages of cultivation.

No creature would willingly offend such a powerful clan; since ancient times, the Nine-tailed Foxes had the mission to lead all Divine Beasts and mystical creatures.

The Four Great Ancient Beasts, even tens of thousands of years ago, did not yield to the rule of the Nine-tailed Foxes, and they did not hesitate to collaborate and provoke the Fox Clan.

That war lasted for over a hundred years, finally ending with the Four Great Beasts being intimidated into backing down.

The century-long battle saw the lone Fox Clan princess taking on four enemies by herself, with the Divine Monarch not even showing his face, attesting to the terrifying combat power of the Fox Clan.

Since then, the reputation of Aruan of the Fox Clan was thoroughly established; this revered ancestor roamed the heavens and the earth with no master she dared not strike with her whip.

Today, the many Ancient Divine Beasts and mystical creatures gathered for the first time in a thousand years, also because of this ancestor.

The Fox Clan princess was getting married to a mortally ill human whose life was nearing its end, which puzzled many creatures, and how many were secretly taking pleasure in her misfortune remained unknown.

After all, among the many Divine Beasts present, there were few who had not suffered under Aruan’s whip.

"The Divine Monarch has arrived—"

A warning voice suddenly broke the silence in the hall.

All eyes turned towards the direction of the second floor as three figures on the upper level came into view.

The leader, dressed in blue, had an air of stability as if refined by the years. His hair was tied up in a crown, and strands cascaded down his back like a waterfall, with a gentle and handsome countenance that was distinguished and elegant as if he was a banished immortal.

Xia Yunchen stood on the second floor with his hands resting on the balustrade, radiating the authority of a superior being, born noble and extraordinary, as if all others were but ants, exuding a restrained overbearing aura.

His dark eyes stared at the crowd of mystical creatures below, profound and serious, with lips tightly pressed.

The two people standing behind him were Changyuan and Lan An,

who were also outstanding in appearance. Or, it could be said that among all the mystical creatures present, in terms of facial features and physique, they were extremely eye-catching.

With his flowing long hair wrapped in Demonic Energy, Changyuan took a step forward. His blood-red eyes followed his master’s gaze to the crowd below, displaying a proud demeanor that seemed to disregard everything else.

He whispered into Xia Yunchen’s ear, "Master, two are still absent, saying they were held up by matters."

Xia Yunchen’s voice was cool as he said, "If they cannot make it, let’s not force them. They needn’t appear again."

His voice was neither loud nor low, enough for everyone present to hear.

Changyuan’s lips curled into a cruel arc, his aggressively handsome face revealing a bloodthirsty killing intent as his deep blood-colored eyes stared intently at his fellow kin below.

Divine Monarch had summoned everyone, specifically infoming them that it was time to prepare for Aruan’s wedding.

Any talk of being hindered by other affairs was nothing but a smokescreen.

After millennia of silence, the Tu Mountain Fox Clan surely aroused the scheming tendencies of the other mystical creatures.

Changyuan donned a black attire, his perfect physique on full display. His features were sharp and defined, not exactly handsome, but compelling enough to keep everyone downstairs from taking their eyes off him.

Not just for Changyuan’s looks, but also for his status: among the fox clan, Changyuan was the most valued and trusted fierce beast by the Divine Monarch, with a combat power even surpassing that of the four great ferocious beasts.

Xia Yunchen withdrew his assessing gaze and nodded towards Lan An, who stood on the other side.

The latter stepped forward, gently adjusting the white jade hairpin that gathered countless strands of hair, his delicate and demonically enchanting face rarely breaking into a warm smile.

His temperament was icy cold; when unsmiling, he emanated an aloofness, as though in the midst of extreme cold, utterly devoid of warmth.

Yet, at this moment, Lan An’s smiling visage was more enthralling than the most captivating of female demons.

As he began to speak, a faint scent of grass and trees diffused around him, "I presume everyone is aware of the Divine Monarch’s purpose for gathering us here today. In two days, Fox Clan princess Aruan will be wed. I ask you all to cooperate and provide her with a grand wedding procession, following the ancient traditions."

After Lan An finished speaking, the crowd of Divine Beasts and fierce creatures downstairs voiced their thoughts.

"This is, of course, an honor for us."

"The little progenitor is finally getting married. I can finally return to my old den."

"I hear Aruan is now human, wouldn’t our sudden appearance scare her?"

"Scare her? Heh..."

"Even if the progenitor is human now, I’m sure her mischievous temperament hasn’t changed. It would be difficult to scare her, I guess."

Chaos, with arms crossed, listened to the discussion and scoffed, "I’m actually looking forward to seeing her startled. Back in the day, that brat chased me with a whip. Now the time for revenge has finally come..."

"Cough, cough..."

"Cough, cough..."

Before Chaos could finish, a chorus of coughing erupted around him.

Even Rong Menglan gave him a sharp elbow with an arm, her mandarin duck eyes glaring darkly at him.

Standing on the second floor, Xia Yunchen’s gaze fell slightly as he stared at his hand resting on the railing, as if in deep thought.

Beside him, Lan An’s expression was cool, a green pattern spreading across his face as his dark green eyes emitted a strange and dangerous glint.

He was clearly angered; the restrained Demonic Energy that normally enveloped him now surged uncontrollably down towards Chaos.

Xia Yunchen’s eyes, unrippled, glanced at Chaos and expressionlessly scanned the others: "Aruan is now frail and delicate, struggling with her daily life. Fortunately, someone in the Human Realm takes great care of her. I just want to ensure a peaceful wedding for her.

Why don’t you all put aside your past grievances for now? Once Aruan’s soul returns, feel free to settle your new and old grudges. I promise you here and now, at that time I will not intervene to protect her."

In truth, he had never needed to protect her before; Aruan was always quite strong, and few could put her at a disadvantage.

Chaos, warned by Xia Yunchen’s serious demeanor, opened his mouth to protest, "Well... I was just speaking off the cuff. If I truly wanted to bully her, I wouldn’t be openly talking about it like this.

If anyone was to bully that little progenitor, why wait until now? It wasn’t that I couldn’t have bullied her before. It was just that I was letting her have her way."
