"Lord Goddess, you... you..." Fang Chuanjian's mind went blank, he could hardly speak.
The Lord Goddess was actually scolding him for a mere ant from War Ancient Sky? This ant wasn't even at the Eternal Ancient Realm!
Even the servants' servants of the Fang Chuanjian family were above the Eternal Ancient Realm. Such an insignificant ant, hard for him to even fathom, why would the Lord Goddess speak for him?
Moreover, this was the first time since the Lord Goddess entered the Dao Qing Sect that she defended someone, right? Previously, he thought Lord Goddess was utterly cold and emotionless.
What exactly was going on? Fang Chuanjian stared blankly at Xiao Yuan, completely at a loss, feeling like his mind was a mess.
In fact, not just Fang Chuanjian, even his grandfather, the Fifth Elder, an old monster-level terrifying Supreme Expert of high status, had his eyes twitch violently and was also stunned.
If Xiao Yuan rejected his grandson Fang Chuanjian's pursuit, he could understand and found it normal. After all, in his view, Xiao Yuan might not fancy any man, with no romantic feelings in her heart at all.
But Xiao Yuan developed a strong killing intent towards his grandson for a stranger from War Ancient Sky? Even the Fifth Elder felt his mind was somewhat inadequate.
Meanwhile, at the Martial Training Field, the atmosphere was equally annihilatingly silent... Everyone was dumbfounded too!!!
Although Xiao Yuan hadn't spoken much since appearing, everyone wasn't blind; anyone could see that among the group of envoys, this dazzlingly beautiful Lord Goddess was undoubtedly one of the highest status members, possibly equal with the Fifth Elder.
How did Su Chen connect with such a Lord Goddess? Logically, this should be Su Chen's first time seeing this Lord Goddess!
Can't figure it out, really can't figure it out.
Xiang Shouteng and several Supreme Elders from the War God Palace were infinitely shocked and incredulous, along with a bit more unease, urgency, and fear. Could this troublesome kid somehow be connected to the Dao Qing Sect?
"I'm asking you a question!" The next second, in the silence, Xiao Yuan stared at Fang Chuanjian, speaking again, surprisingly aggressive, showing no intention of letting Fang Chuanjian go, this...
Fang Chuanjian's face turned pale instantly, retreating a step, Xiao Yuan's aura was too cold, as if it would freeze all his flesh and blood, it seemed his understanding of the Lord Goddess's strength was still insufficient, so strong!
The Fifth Elder slightly furrowed his brow, what was wrong with the Lord Goddess? Even if a little dissatisfied with his grandson, she shouldn't be this menacing! After all, he, the Fifth Elder, was still present!
Could that sudden little ant named Su Chen really have some connection to the Goddess?
However, none of this mattered. What mattered was that the Fifth Elder knew he had to step forward. He looked toward Xiao Yuan and said, "Lord Goddess, if Fang Chuanjian did anything wrong, please forgive him. Fang Chuanjian is a member of the Dao Qing Sect."
"Apologize!!! Apologize to Su Chen!" However, to the disappointment of many, Xiao Yuan just glanced at the Fifth Elder, then her beautiful eyes continued to focus on Fang Chuanjian, showing no regard for the Fifth Elder.
More than just aggressive?
The Fifth Elder's eyes narrowed, a thread of anger and astonishment hidden in their depths.
What was going on? Even the Fifth Elder spoke, and she showed no respect?
Although Xiao Yuan was indeed cold by nature, she shouldn't lack all understanding of human affections and propriety!
In the Dao Qing Sect, in fact, Xiao Yuan's status was higher than his as the Fifth Elder, after all, she was that one's Closed-door Disciple, potentially a future leader of the Dao Qing Sect.
But on the surface, he was the Fifth Elder. Although Xiao Yuan was called the Lady of Heavenly Cold and was that one's disciple, ultimately, she still only held the status of a Nine-Star Disciple, just like his grandson, nothing more.
Also, for this reason, although Xiao Yuan came along this time to bring Xiang Qianqing to the Dao Qing Sect, it was still under his Fifth Elder's lead.
Moreover, no matter how high Xiao Yuan's status, she had been with the Dao Qing Sect for less than a year, and her actual authority and voice weren't significant, not compared to him as the Fifth Elder.
So from any aspect, in a situation where he, the Fifth Elder, spoke up, Xiao Yuan shouldn't have been so aggressively pressing.
Yet, she was...
What was going on?! Even the Fifth Elder found it inexplicable!
No matter how he thought, he couldn't understand.
What he didn't know was that, although Xiao Yuan's memory hadn't recovered, her intuition, the voice deep within her heart, and the Heavenly Yin Mysterious Energy, all held a special attachment and emotion toward Su Chen.
Therefore, she couldn't remain rational.
If anyone dared to disrespect Su Chen, she couldn't simply ignore it.
"Lord Goddess, I... I..." At the same moment, Xiang Qianqing actually spoke up.
It must be said, Xiang Qianqing was very brave, daring to seize a pathway through the heavens for herself; she could have stayed silent.
After all, now Xiao Yuan and the Fifth Elder seemed to be at odds, a clash of celestial beings, and even if she had entered the Dao Qing Sect, she wouldn't have the qualification to intervene.
However, she chose to speak up.
Wanting to secure a good development after entering the Dao Qing Sect wasn't easy, it wasn't realistic to try and win favor with all its members.
Still, it was better to follow a particular person or faction, and between the Fifth Elder and Xiao Yuan, without a doubt, she leaned toward the Fifth Elder.
First, the title of Elder carried weight.
Second, she and Su Chen bore a life-and-death enmity, and Su Chen had likely already figured out about Wen Rou, and considering the potential relationship between Xiao Yuan and Su Chen, leaning toward Xiao Yuan wasn't possible.
Precisely because she understood she needed to lean toward the Fifth Elder, Xiang Qianqing summoned all her courage and stepped forward to try and speak for Fang Chuanjian.
Speaking now, Fang Chuanjian would surely be moved, and she'd noticed that Fang Chuanjian already had some possessiveness toward her.
However!!!
Man proposes, but heaven disposes.
Xiang Qianqing had just begun to speak, barely uttered anything, when she was directly interrupted.
"Did I allow you to speak?" Xiao Yuan's domineering presence was unimaginable, even Su Chen was shocked. At this moment, Xiao Yuan wasn't the gentle woman he held in his arms before, but the epitome of dominance! That icy chill, that fierce killing intent...
Xiao Yuan's aura, without a word, pressed directly onto Xiang Qianqing.
No signs of restraint.
Just forcibly pressing down on Xiang Qianqing.
Suddenly.
Spurt...
Xiang Qianqing coughed up a mouthful of blood, her face instantly turning pale as wax paper, her delicate body swayed, and her knees buckled.
Bam!!!
Kneel.
Under the gaze of everyone, Xiang Qianqing was forced to kneel directly by the pressure.
Heavily, with a startling sound.
