Chapter 285 - 283: Step Back and Settle for Second Place, Becoming Her Second Husband
"Who knows what Xiao Chen was thinking; I think he’s disgraceful. To actually take Fairy Qinghe away during her wedding with our master—I’m just worried..." Xiao Bai’s voice trailed off.
Suddenly, he remembered that his master had excellent hearing. Some things were better left unsaid, lest the master hear them and be even more anxious.
What Xiao Bai left unsaid, Meng Yun had actually guessed. He reassured, "Don’t worry. Qinghe is very clever; Xiao Chen won’t be able to take advantage of her."
"But I’ve heard that Shu Xiu is missing, and it’s very likely that she was taken by Xiao Chen. If Xiao Chen threatens Fairy Qinghe with Shu Xiu, Fairy Qinghe might give in." Xiao Bai deliberately lowered his voice.
Meng Yun was at a loss for words for a moment, but he still maintained an optimistic view, "Times have changed. Qinghe is not someone who can be easily bullied. Plus, Xiao Chen likes Qinghe; he wouldn’t harm her unless it was absolutely necessary! Let’s hurry and find some clues to rescue Qinghe as soon as possible. Speaking of which, what is Qinghe’s current cultivation base? Does she have a chance to get away from Xiao Chen unscathed? I’ve heard that Xiao Chen is the Ancestral Dragon, so he must be one of the Ancient Divine Beasts, right?"
If Xiao Chen truly was the Ancestral Dragon, he would be a formidable opponent even for Wuya, which meant Qinghe certainly would not stand a chance against him.
"Xiao Chen is indeed the Ancient Divine Beast Ancestral Dragon; Fairy Qinghe cannot defeat him," Xiao Bai said as soon as his voice fell, Dongfang Wuya walked in, continuing, "In her prime, Qinghe was no less than anyone else, and even Xiao Chen might not be her match. It’s just that Qinghe has not awakened her divine powers..."
Meng Yun’s eyes lit up upon hearing this, "You mean Qinghe is also an Ancient Deity?"
With a hint of pride, Dongfang Wuya replied, "Her dharma name during ancient times was Hongmeng Divine Honor, the Qinghe who manifested during the creation of heaven and earth. She was also the first life to transform in the Chaos Era, an Innate Divine Physique, and appeared before any of us immortals. Had it not been for her sacrificing herself tens of thousands of years ago, the Three Realms would not exist today."
