Chapter 1051: He Is My Man
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Jiang Chen was still hoping that Jiang Qingyu was still alive, but many people believed that he was already dead. Upon hearing what Jiang Chen had said, Yao Yuntong looked in pity at Jiang Chen.
“Do as you like.” Upon realizing how resolute Jiang Chen’s gaze was, Elder Yunhe didn’t insist anymore.
Just after this, they started chatting about Yao Yuntong. “Did you get the academy’s invitation?” Elder Yunhe asked.
Yao Yuntong stated that she was a lightning method inheritor.
“A lightning method? The Thunder G.o.d Sect?” Elder Yunhe furrowed his brows. He was surprised by this because Yao Yuntong was a woman.
“Elder, before the Sacred Zone’s channel was closed, the Thunder G.o.d Sect didn’t have a rule forbidding pa.s.sing down the inheritance to women. Let alone, Yao Yuntong isn’t a member of the Thunder G.o.d Sect,” Jiang Chen helped her by speaking for her.
“You should both wait here, while I go to consult the others.” Elder Yunhe didn’t make a decision immediately and just left. Jiang Chen was surprised that even such an elder wouldn’t have the right to make such a decision. Elder Yunhe was a Martial Emperor! It seemed as if the Abundance Land Academy really had many talented people hiding in it.
“He didn’t let me pa.s.s the test in advance, so I guess it’s a difficult issue,” Yao Yuntong said.
Upon noticing her worried look, Jiang Chen comforted her, even though he was aware that her words were correct.
…..
Just after this, Jiang Chen learned that Ye Xue was on Star Peak, which was the peak of the highest mountain out of the five great mountains.
“Stop! Outsiders are forbidden from going to Star Peak.”
When Jiang Chen flew toward Star Peak, he was obstructed by a group of people, and when he looked at their outfits, he discerned that they were the academy’s Law Enforcement Disciples.
“I came here to pay a visit to my friend,” Jiang Chen stated his objective.
“What is his name?”
The Law Enforcement Disciples were all composed and calm and didn’t have the ordinary academy disciples’ pompous airs. They were all dignified and mature.
“Ye Xue.” When Jiang Chen stated this name, an odd look appeared on the faces of the Law Enforcement Disciples.
“What is your name?” They asked once again.
“Jiang Chen.”
At this moment, the Law Enforcement Disciples exchanged a glance, and they all wore a complex look.
“Wait for a moment!”
But they still carried out this matter properly, and a light ray was shot by one of them, fired at Star Peak.
“Ye Xue will get news of this, and if she’s willing to meet you, she will come out by herself. You aren’t allowed to intrude there,” a Law Enforcement Disciple said.
“Okay!” Jiang Chen respected other people’s rules, and he waited outside patiently.
After a short while, several people flew down from the mountain.
“You should go back, Ye Xue doesn’t want to see you,” a youthful woman among those people spoke coldly.
“Why?” Jiang Chen asked.
“Are you questioning me?” The woman spoke out of displeasure.
“If you want to deceive me, you must first understand Ye Xue’s relations.h.i.+p with me. It seems to me like you don’t know it.”
The woman frowned and wondered what he meant by this. After a while, she spoke impatiently, “I don’t care about your relations.h.i.+p with her. In any case, you won’t get to see her today, understood?”
“What if I say that I don’t understand it?” Jiang Chen said.
“That would be a foolish choice.” The woman had a hostile look, and the people next to her took out their weapons.
“Stop!” It was at this moment that a chilly air engulfed them, and a white-clothed person flew over. It was Ye Xue. She was as graceful as before with fair, ice-like skin. She was extremely beautiful!
“Who ordered you to pa.s.s down false words in my name?” Ye Xue said.
“I…I just a.s.sumed that this guy was making trouble without reason, and this is why I did it.” The youthful woman looked fl.u.s.tered, and she seemed completely different than before.
“You should then listen well to me, he’s my man,” Ye Xue said. After her words reverberated, many cries of alarm echoed. It could be seen that even though Ye Xue had come to the academy recently, she still had great fame here.
The youthful woman was left at a loss for words, and she fled with her tail between her legs.
The Spirit Clan had a special status among the myriad clans, and it occupied an important role in the Nine Realms even before the arrival of the other clans. As for the reason behind this? People had many theories about it, and, among them, there were two with the highest credibility.
The first one stated that the Spirit Clan was a branch of the Human Clan, and they were both born from humans. The reason behind this theory was because humans and Spirits appearances and natures were remarkably similar.
The other theory was that the Human and Spirit Clans had always had a good relations.h.i.+p and were close allies.
The reason why Ye Xue was welcomed warmly here was that she was the candidate with the highest chance for becoming a Spirit Emperor, and she would manage to unify all the Spirit Clans. Her current power was probably still at the Star Venerable Realm, but since Spirits’ power could rise quickly, no one dared to belittle her.
Since Ye Xue had come to the Seventh Realm, many talented men had pursued her. But she had a character befitting her beautiful appearance. She was as cold as ice and introverted. Ye Xue had focused only on her cultivation since she came to the academy, but, even though this was the case, she was still chosen as the next head of the Beauty List.
On this day, Ye Xue stated before the crowd that Jiang Chen was her man, and it could be imagined that such news stunned many people. According to the Beauty List rules, once a woman was taken, she would be removed from the list. It was obvious from Ye Xue’s manner that she didn’t care about such a ridiculous list.
Jiang Chen and Ye Xue flew toward a secluded place.
Yao Yuntong had also wanted to follow them, but, after she gave it some thought, she took the sensible decision and decided to stay in the academy.
“Did you get any news about the Ice Soul Stone’s whereabouts?”
“I still haven’t made any inquiries about it.” Jiang Chen shook his head.
“Is it because you are concerned with another woman?” Ye Xue asked.
Jiang Chen raised his head and looked in disbelief at the beautiful face in front of him. “Senior sister, are you jealous?” Jiang Chen revealed a crafty smile.
Ye Xue wore the same expression as before and just looked at him in silence.
Jiang Chen’s smile evaporated then. But, just after this, he smiled sheepishly and said, “Senior sister, are you angry?”
“Do I seem to you like someone who will make trouble without a reason?”
“No, you don’t. My senior sister is fair and sensible,” Jiang Chen replied quickly.
“Inform me about that woman’s matter.” Ye Xue wasn’t joking with him, and she took this matter seriously.
“Okay!” Upon witnessing his senior sister in such a state, Jiang Chen could only inform her of his story with Fan Tianyin in detail. In the past, Jiang Chen hadn’t mentioned it, and his senior sister didn’t ask about it. But after the All Saints Sect affair occurred, he was obliged to explain it to her.
“Is Xue’er aware of it?” Ye Xue asked.
“She doesn’t know about it. As a matter of fact, I still haven’t had a heart-to-heart talk with her.” This was Jiang Chen’s greatest regret, but he still had a chance to remedy it.
“I don’t have any objection against this, but if Xue’er opposed it, I will stand by her side,” Ye Xue said.
“Senior sister, you are really the best!” Jiang Chen became quite excited. Since he had taken care of both sides, he could now enjoy both of them. However, Jiang Chen still didn’t forget himself due to joy, and he expressed to his senior sister that she was the woman he loved the most.
“Why?” Ye Xue was moved by his sweet words, but she still wanted to hear the reasons behind it.
Jiang Chen pondered about it and said, “Since the first time I met you, I felt like it would be a matter of regret in my life if I couldn’t get such an outstanding woman as you.”
“Who the h*ll would believe such words?” Ye Xue didn’t believe such ridiculous words. But her flawless cheeks still became flushed.
Jiang Chen looked in a daze at her, and he couldn’t help but hug her.
Ye Xue struggled slightly, before she gave up and let him embrace her. “Junior brother, I have missed you.” A faint voice echoed from Jiang Chen’s chest.
Jiang Chen revealed a faint smile, and he felt then like he was embracing the whole world.
