Zhou Yuan didn’t care, however. He withdrew his gaze from Xu Ming, but then his whole body shuddered. He felt an extremely dangerous aura coming from someone more dangerous than Xu Ming.
He abruptly turned and saw that not far away was a figure in a bright red dress standing on a tall roof.
Wu Yao!
Seeing the eye-catching bright red dress, Zhou Yuan instantly recognized who she was, and his eyes grew fierce.
He hadn’t expected that she would also come.
With Wu Yao’s appearance, the atmosphere tensed up even more and almost exploded.
Hunyuan Heaven’s two most dazzling pearls had both shown up!
As Wu Yao stood on the high roof, her red skirt billowed out around her, and her phoenix eyes locked onto Zhou Yuan with a strange look.
Boom!
Extremely terrifying Genesis Qi suddenly erupted from Su Youwei's body. Her clear eyes became icy cold, and purple qi pulsed around her body as she stared at Wu Yao.
“Wu Yao, if you have any thoughts, I want you to put them away,” Su Youwei warned.
Wu Yao tilted her head, her eyes hovering between Zhou Yuan and Su Youwei. After a while, her red lips opened slightly. “Su Youwei, it's no wonder why you always targeted me. It's because of him.”
When her voice rang out, the tense atmosphere in the entire Fallen City exploded, and countless people felt a little crazy. Their eyes pierced Zhou Yuan like needles.
Everybody roared in their hearts, Who can tell me the relationship between Zhou Yuan, Su Youwei, and Wu Yao?!
Chapter 925 Beauty Brings Disaster
The atmosphere in Fallen City seemed a little strange.
Countless people stared at the manor’s gate with all sorts of complex emotions. They originally thought there would be a good show between the Tianyuan Region and the Yaogui Region.
But who would have thought that Su Youwei and Wu Yao would appear, one after the other, and create an uproar?
These two women were incredibly popular in the Hunyuan Heaven, and it was unknown how many heaven prides admired them and did everything possible to impress them. In the past few years, however, there had never been any rumours about the two women being with other men.
This only made their radiance even brighter.
The two had grown more and more remarkable over the years, and ultimately, they became a true peerless pair of Divine Dwelling stage experts in Hunyuan Heaven. Even people of earlier generations and those that made it onto the Heavenly Sun List paid great attention to them. From this, it was clear how amazing the two women were in Hunyuan Heaven.
They were goddess-like entities in many people's hearts.
But today…
At the Nine Regions Manor gate, Su Youwei didn’t care about angering Xu Ming or the Yaogui Region to help Zhou Yuan. From the look on the two’s faces, it was obvious that there was a story between them.
And after Su Youwei, Wu Yao had also appeared.
Her one sentence, ‘no wonder you are always against me’, stirred up stormy waves in countless people’s hearts.
Everybody in Hunyuan Heaven knew that Su Youwei had a gentle nature and was very polite when talking to others, but whenever she saw Wu Yao, they were always hostile.
Many people thought it was just a rivalry between two equally outstanding women.
But now it seemed that it was all because of Zhou Yuan?!
Why would Su Youwei go against Wu Yao for him? Could there be something between Wu Yao and Zhou Yuan?!
The curiosity in countless people’s hearts was about to explode.
Of course, not only the people within Fallen City were shocked, even the top heaven prides in the tall buildings within the Nine Regions Manor fell silent for a brief moment.
In the tower where people of the Wanzu Region were located.
Liu Qingshu couldn’t stop his mouth from opening wide. She hadn’t expected that day’s good show to turn so exciting.
“Both Su Youwei and Wu Yao know Zhou Yuan?
“And from the looks of it, there are most likely a lot of stories between them.”
As she spoke, she cast a sidelong glance at Zhao Mushen, whose expression was calm and indifferent. Having known him for years, she knew that he was a proud and confident person, and in the entire Hunyuan Heaven, the women whom he attached importance to were only Wu Yao and Su Youwei.
This might not be the affection between men and women but the admiration and approval of their strength. But this kind of appreciation might at some point turn to affection.
This made her very envious, but she dared not show it.
Now that the relationship between Wu Yao, Su Youwei and Zhou Yuan was surfacing, there was no doubt that Zhao Mushen was not as indifferent as he appeared to be.
But Liu Qiushui was secretly glad to see this. Although Wu Yao and Su Youwei were both outstanding, their vision wasn’t good. It was stupid of them to be involved with Zhou Yuan.
In her opinion, only Zhao Mushen was the king of the Divine Dwelling stage in Hunyuan Heaven. The gap between Zhou Yuan and him was like the moon and a firefly!
Su Youwei and Wu Yao were both talented and beautiful, but their vision didn’t seem good.
Zhao Mushen wore an indifferent expression as he peered down at the three figures at the gate that were watched by countless people. His eyelids drooped, and he uttered, “Having a beauty’s attention is sometimes not necessarily a good thing.
“For an incapable person, it would only bring about disaster.
“Zhou Yuan has already made many enemies before the nine regions tournament has even begun.”
PA!
The teacup in Jiu Gong’s hands dropped and shattered, but she didn’t seem to care. Her beautiful eyes were filled with curiosity as she watched the disturbance in the distance.
“What exactly is Zhou Yuan’s background? He is connected to both Su Youwei and Wu Yao?!” Jiu Gong exclaimed. She had always thought of Wu Yao and Su Youwei as enemies because their presence meant that she had always been suppressed although she was outstanding. It was inevitable that she felt a little bitter.
But because of this, she felt a little uncomfortable when she found that the two women were connected to Zhou Yuan.
That feeling was as though the perfect opponents in her heart showed some flaws because of Zhou Yuan. Even if she defeated them in the future, she wouldn’t feel satisfied.
She knew she felt like this because she felt that Zhou Yuan wasn’t qualified. If Zhou Yuan were replaced with someone like Zhao Mushen or Wang Xi, then perhaps she wouldn’t have that uncomfortable feeling.
Jiu Gong bit her lips, took out a handkerchief to wipe the water stains on her little hand, and finally grumbled, “What is Zhou Yuan’s background?”
The top floor of the Wushen Region’s building.
“What's going on? How would junior sister Wu Yao know Zhou Yuan?” Lan Ting’s face reddened with anger as he watched the happenings, his voice filled with rage.
Zhao Yunxuan suddenly smiled. “Don't worry. It’s not what you think. Zhou Yuan and junior sister Wu Yao have some sort of relationship, but it’s one between enemies.”
Lan Ting was taken aback. “You also know Zhou Yuan?”
“I met him when I went to Cangxuan Heaven with junior sister Wu Yao. I launched a palm strike at him, but he was able to luckily survive,” Zhao Yunxiao nonchalantly responded.
“Junior sister Wu Yao said that I have to leave that man for her to deal with, so I had to let him live.
“I didn't expect that guy to come to Hunyuan Heaven or even become the Tianyuan Region’s chief pavilion master. Haha, he is indeed a little impressive.”
Although Zhao Yunxuan said this, his expression wasn’t sincere. He was ranked 19th on the Divine Dwelling List, which was much worse than Zhou Yuan’s ninth place, but the ranking showed nothing since he and Lan Ting were both two of the Wushen Region’s secret powers. In terms of strength, he felt that Zhou Yuan wouldn’t be much s
tronger than him.
Lan Ting’s expression finally relaxed. “I overthought things. How would junior sister Wu Yao have a special relationship with that person?”
“But junior sister Wu Yao is a little too impulsive. Her appearance will most likely start rumors.”
Lan Ting’s eyes flashed coldly. This was directed at Zhou Yuan. Wu Yao was perfect in his heart, but Zhou Yuan was like a toad that gave her a flaw. This was absolutely unforgivable.
Lan Ting turned to say to Zhao Yunxiao, saying, “In the nine regions tournament, if there is a chance, it’s best to get rid of him.”
Zhao Yunxiao smiled. “Then let’s make a bet to see who will get rid of him first and who will stay with junior sister Wu Yao for the next year.”
“It’s not necessarily useful to stay by junior sister Wu Yao’s side,” Lan Ting said indifferently. “But I accept this bet.”
The two smiled at each other. It seemed they had decided Zhou Yuan’s end.
On the other hand, in the Zixiao Region’s building, Xue Jingtao’s face was livid when Su Youwei appeared. He stared at Zhou Yuan with dagger-like eyes.
The Zixiao Region disciples remained silent as anger similarly flashed in their eyes.
It was a kind of anger that appeared when the swan of their house flew into the arms of another.
Xue Jingtao took a deep breath, suppressing the anger and jealousy that caused a burning pain in his heart, and his eyes turned icy cold.
He turned to his junior and senior brothers. “If you have a chance, get rid of that man.”
No matter what story Su Youwei had with Zhou Yuan in the past, he couldn’t tolerate the pair’s close relationship. Therefore, Zhou Yuan had to die!
As Zhao Mushen had said, although Zhou Yuan had received countless attention from that day’s incident, it also created many enemies for him.
If he wasn’t strong enough, this beautiful thing might indeed become a curse.
It seemed it is true that a beauty brings disaster.
Chapter 926 Great
At the gate of the Nine Regions Manor.
Of course, Wu Yao could feel countless complicated gazes staring intently at them from around Fallen City, but she paid no attention to them. She had always ignored gossip.
Her eyes, like those of a phoenix, were fixed on Su Youwei. In truth, she admired her a little because she was the only woman in the entire Hunyuan Heaven that was qualified to be her enemy.
“You know Zhou Yuan?” Wu Yao asked.
“I am also from the Great Zhou,” Su Youwei answered calmly.
Wu Yao was taken aback.
“Wu Yao, what the Wu family has done to His Highness was too much,” Su Youwei said lightly.
“The world is like that. There are only winners or losers; there is no right or wrong. The Wu family can’t be blamed for what they had done. In the same way that he destroyed the Great Wu and wiped out the Wu family, I won’t hate him because of it,” Wu Yu said indifferently. “This is fate. It's either a win or a loss, the survival of the fittest. So, no matter who survives between him and me, nobody can be blamed.”
Su Youwei shook her head. “That’s the logic of a robber. I might not be qualified to say anything, but if you want to do anything to His Highness, I will be your opponent.”
Following her statement, countless heartbreaks seemed to sound throughout Fallen City.
Wu Yao was silent for a good moment. She evidently didn’t expect the relationship between Su Youwei and Zhou Yuan to be so good that Su Youwei would even be willing to be her opponent for him. It should be said that even Zhao Mushen wouldn’t be able to make such a decision so easily.
After all, Wu Yao shouldn’t be messed with.
“If that's the case, I'll have to accept it.”
Wu Yao spoke indifferently, shifting her phoenix eyes to Zhou Yuan, who hadn’t uttered a word. “I really don’t know where you got such good luck.”
Back in Cangxuan Heaven, Zhou Yuan always had that mysterious and unfathomable girl beside him. Even Wu Yao feared her a little. But now that he had come to Hunyuan Heaven, he had the protection of an outstanding girl like Su Youwei, whom she admired.
This made Wu Yao, who had always been indifferent to everything, a little indignant. Did this guy really have such great charms?
Looking Wu Yao in the eye, Zhou Yuan smiled. “Don't worry. That thing you have, I'll get it back myself.”
“Is that right? Then I'll wait, but you have to be prepared for failure.”
The two gazes collided, sparks sputtering.
The many people watched in bewilderment. The love and hatred between the three had become increasingly incomprehensible.
Wu Yao didn’t plan to stay any longer. She swept a glance over Zhou Yuan and Su Youwei and vanished.
Xu Ming of the Yaogiu Region glared at Zhou Yuan. After Wu Yao left, however, he was a little fearful of him because he couldn’t understand the relationship Zhou Yuan had with Su Youwei and Wu Yao.
Although he was contemptuous of Zhou Yuan’s behavior of relying on women, he had to say that he was also very envious. Xu Ming naturally coveted outstanding women like Su Youwei and Wu Yao, but unfortunately, he knew that the possibility of this happening was very low.
“Hmph, let’s go!”
In the end, Xu Ming snorted and quickly left with his people.
He had undoubtedly lost face after that day’s incident, but it didn’t matter too much. The nine regions tournament was about to begin, and he would have the opportunity to regain his face then. Su Youwei couldn’t always be around to protect Zhou Yuan.
When he found the opportunity, he would make everybody know how incapable Zhou Yuan was. Would Su Youwei want to protect trash like him at that time?!
Zhou Yuan didn’t care that Xu Ming left. He turned his head to find that Lu Xiao, Yi Qiushui and the others were staring at him strangely.
Lu Xiao and the others were still in shock.
It never crossed their minds that Zhou Yuan would have a relationship with both Su Youwei and Wu Yao, Hunyuan Heaven’s peerless pair.
So, looking at Zhou Yuan, they suddenly felt that he was somewhat unfathomable.
“There is nothing between us,” Zhou Yuan explained.
Everyone silently nodded. Some members of the four pavilions were filled with admiration, which made Zhou Yuan speechless. He simply didn’t know how to explain it to them.
He could only order, “Tidy up, and get ready to move into building no. 6.”
Everybody responded with a smile.
Zhou Yuan felt helpless. Immediately after, he saw everybody make eye signals as they glanced behind him. He also smelled a familiar fragrance coming from behind. His body stiffened, and he slowly turned around to see the beautiful Su Youwei standing behind him.
She grinned at him. Her bright eyes, rippling like autumn water, mesmerized everyone. The people around them could not shift their gaze away from her.
“Your Highness.” Su Youwei stared intently at Zhou Yuan and pursed her lips. Very quickly, a bright smile bloomed on her face. “I haven’t seen you in a long time.”
Zhou Yuan scratched his head. “Youwei, long time no see.”
Su Youwei took two steps forward and was only one step away from Zhou Yuan. From that distance, Zhou Yuan could even smell her sweet-smelling body and feel its softness. He looked at her fair face and smiled. “You really are too beautiful. If you were still in the Great Zhou, you would be the most beautiful woman.”
Su Youwei smiled. “When I left the Great Zhou, Your Highness said you would come find me, but why haven’t you come to Hunyuan Heaven in more than a year? Did you forget?”
The girl in front smiled faintly and seemed to be asking casually, but Zhou Yuan felt a little interrogating intent.
This made beads of sweat accumulate on his back, and he gave a hollow laugh, “Of course I didn’t forget! I just wanted to become better before I saw you. You are now too remarkable. How would I dare come see y
ou without any achievements?”
Lu Xiao, Mu Liu and the others all deeply felt Zhou Yuan’s overwhelming desire to survive.
“Is that right? Then, why didn’t you look directly at me earlier?” Su Youwei questioned again. “Is it because you’re guilty? But why would you be guilty? Did you think I wouldn’t want to remember the past? That I wouldn’t want to meet you? Do you think I am that kind of woman?”
Zhou Yuan's body stiffened. He didn't expect Su Youwei to have gotten so smart. Just from the fact he evaded her eyes, she could analyse his inner thoughts so well.
Too terrifying!
The gentle and cute Su Youwei has changed!
And just when Zhou Yuan was shuddering inwardly and was about to admit it, Su Youwei chuckled and her voice turned soft. She said, “Your Highness, I won’t blame you this time, but you can’t do it again!
“The memories I have in Great Zhou are my best memories, and if I have a choice I would rather give up coming to Hunyuan Heaven than to give up my memories of Great Zhou.”
Hearing the soft voice of the girl before him, Zhou Yuan felt somewhat emotional.
So he nodded solemnly. “I won’t do it again!”
“So my guess was right!” Su Youwei’s eyes widened, her eyes somewhat crafty.
Zhou Yuan immediately froze, and his face went numb.
Su Youwei, what are you playing at?! When did you become like this!
“Keke!” Su Youwei couldn't help but giggle out loud when she saw Zhou Yuan's expression, her face bright and radiant like the sun.
She took another step forward and stood on tiptoe, whispering in Zhou Yuan’s ear.
“Your Highness, it’s great to see you again.
“Also, what I said just now, I meant it.”
Chapter 927 Conversation at night
Darkness shrouded Fallen City.
“What does Zhou Yuan have to be so close with Su Youwei!”
“Zhou Yuan isn’t good enough for Su Youwei!”
“Haha, don't think too much about it. From what I see, Zhou Yuan and Su Youwei are acquainted, but their relationship isn’t what you think it is.
