Xiao Junyan gazed ahead, his deep voice erging slowly from his lips: "She is the daughter of the Hell’s Lord and the Phoenix Empress—Xuanyuan Muyue."
The Great Emperor Xiao Tian was startled and suddenly raised his voice in exclamation: "What?!"
However, Xiao Junyan said no more, rely gazing ahead.
"How could Yun Qi be the daughter of Hell’s Lord and the Phoenix Empress? You must know that back when they hadn’t yet ascended, the Azure Emperor had already taken three disciples..." Yet, the mont the words left his mouth, he suddenly fell silent.
If Yun Qi really was Feng Jiu’s daughter, then wouldn’t the Azure Emperor’s other two disciples be...
At this thought, his heart gave a violent jolt. Under the circumstances back then, had Feng Jiu already sent the three children to the Azure Emperor to beco his disciples? Had this path been laid out years ago? How—how on earth was that possible?
What terrified him even more was that if Yun Qi really was Feng Jiu’s daughter, then the marriage she had ntioned to him...
For a mont, everything went black before his eyes. His body swayed slightly as he muttered, "This can’t be true. How could this possibly be true?"
"It is true. Yun Qi told so herself," Xiao Junyan said, rcilessly shattering the last shred of hope in his heart.
"Th-then what about the marriage..." He stared blankly at Xiao Junyan, whose face was devoid of emotion. Only now did he sense that his deanor had changed from just a few days ago.
"Surely you don’t think, Old Predecessor, that after our visit to Yunxiao Mountain today, we’ll be allowed back onto the Immortal Islands of the Hell’s Lord and the Phoenix Empress? That marriage was, of course, rely a pretext." He paused, then continued, "I’m sure it won’t be long before the forces suppressing us are withdrawn as well."
Great Emperor Xiao Tian stood there in a daze, muttering, "How could this happen? How could this happen..."
Just as they had predicted, after they left Yunxiao Mountain, Feng Jiu sent a ssage to Yue’er. After ascertaining the situation, she relayed the news to Hao’er, instructing him to withdraw the pressure on the Xiao family, and also sent a ssage to Du Fan and the others, telling them they could stop their actions.
She had never intended to truly target the Xiao family this ti; it was rely a test for Xiao Junyan and the Xiao clan. Now that the results were in, regardless of the outco, she naturally would not continue to suppress the Xiao family.
After she sent them the ssage, Hao’er and Du Fan swiftly withdrew their pressure on the Xiao family.
On the Immortal Island, Feng Jiu sighed softly and said to Xuanyuan Mo Ze, "I actually thought Xiao Junyan was quite decent, but I never expected him to give up in the end."
"The facts prove he isn’t worthy of our Yue’er," Xuanyuan Mo Ze remarked casually. "Besides, I wasn’t ready to let Yue’er marry so early anyway. Let her stay by our side for a few more years."
However, Feng Jiu was troubled. "Then tell ," she asked, "what kind of man will be worthy of our Yue’er in the future?"
"Why the rush? What is ant to be hers will eventually be hers. Just because he hasn’t appeared yet doesn’t an he won’t appear later. Who knows, perhaps he’s already here—we just haven’t t him yet." Xuanyuan Mo Ze spoke calmly and unhurriedly; he wasn’t the least bit worried about his daughter.
With a daughter as exceptional as hers, what kind of man wouldn’t she want? She could take her ti choosing; she was bound to find the very best.
Seeing that he wasn’t the least bit worried, Feng Jiu couldn’t help but roll her eyes at him. She snorted lightly and said, "If you ask , you’d rather your daughter never married at all—just stayed by your side forever."
