Fan Yang came from the Fan Family of Heavenly Realm, and it had shocked many when he became a follower of Yiyi. The Fan Family was also a very large clan in the Heavenly Realm, wielding immense power and governing billions of territories. The Fan Family had many experts and was considered truly powerful.

Fan Yang was the legitimate son of the Fan Family and had shown exceptional talent since childhood, cultivating at an incredibly fast pace. He had once been hoped by his family to step into the ranks of the young adults. Although he still had some distance from reaching that status, he was undoubtedly a Heavenly Genius. No one had expected such a promising young man to choose to follow Yiyi.

The Shui Family was indeed powerful and had profound resources, not something the Fan Family could compare with. Yiyi was certainly outstanding; among the young adults, she was top-tier. Nevertheless, the Fan Family still did not want their own offspring to follow a woman doomed to be an unsuccessful pursuit.

Over this matter, Fan Yang even had a fallout with his family but, in the end, the Fan Family couldn't stop him from following Yiyi.

In fact, anyone with clear sight knew why Fan Yang chose to follow Yiyi; some agreed, others disdained. Either way, none of these opinions affected Fan Yang; he did as he pleased, finding joy in his decisions. Until Chu Mo appeared, Fan Yang had always felt there was a chance for him to win over Yiyi.

Because Yiyi was too proud and too cold!

Yiyi, labeled the madwoman and perennial iceberg by others, appeared in Fan Yang's eyes as someone unlikely to ever meet someone she fancied. Even someone like Qin Xiaotian, a major figure, was completely dismissed by her, so who else could catch her eye?

Yet, he could be close at hand, first to get the moon. Fan Yang believed that one day he would succeed in softening Yiyi's heart.

Unfortunately, at that time, Chu Mo appeared.

As a follower, Fan Yang had long been aware of that marriage contract, but he never took it to heart. How could a bumpkin who ascended from the lower realm be worthy of goddess-like Yiyi?

Then the news from Heavenly Dao Garden came out, and Yiyi publicly professed her love for Chu Mo on the faith board without a moment's hesitation. Fan Yang was stunned.

He had lowered himself to follow a woman; what was the purpose? But now, it all turned into a fleeting illusion, his heartfelt intentions becoming nothing more than a dream, as evanescent as lightning or dew...

So in his heart, Fan Yang harbored profound resentment towards Chu Mo, and if there was a chance to trip him up behind the scenes, he would definitely take action without hesitation!

His thoughts were naturally very difficult to hide from those around him.

Previously, having spoken to Chu Mo, saying 'My lord is the lady named Cao Cairong who follows Yiyi,' she now watched the figures ahead and then transmitted her voice to Fan Yang, "Fan Yang, you'd better rein in your hatred for Chu Mo."

Fan Yang glanced at Cao Cairong, "Don't you meddle in other people's business."

"I'm not meddling, I'm afraid that instead of harming others, you'll end up harming yourself." Cao Cairong, not particularly beautiful but with a noble air, had phoenix eyes and was not very tall, appearing quite petite and delicate. She glanced at Fan Yang and transmitted lightly, "Everyone can see what you're thinking, and the lady being so intelligent, certainly sees it too. She remains silent out of consideration for the face you've earned following her these years, not wishing to make a fuss over this matter. But if you go too far, I'm afraid that even if Young Master Chu doesn't say anything, the lady won't protect you. As a woman, I can see that this time, the lady is serious."

"And what of it?" Fan Yang's face was dark and gloomy, "I just can't stand him!"

"Ha, the truth is, he has never even taken you seriously," Cao Cairong said. "Otherwise, just one word from him would probably have you removed from the lady's side."

"What right does he have?" Fan Yang grew flustered, "It was he who hurt me before..."

"At that time, he didn't even know who you were," Cao Cairong said calmly. "Anyway, as a friend, I hope you can let go of those inappropriate thoughts and follow the lady sincerely. I believe we will all have better paths ahead."

"I can hardly bear it," Fan Yang's expression carried a trace of ferocity.

"If that's the case, I would advise you to leave voluntarily," Cao Cairong looked at Fan Yang somewhat helplessly, "You and I both know the lady's temperament; she will not tolerate anyone meddling in matters and people she cares about."

Fan Yang's face was clouded, hesitating for a moment before replying, "I won't leave; I can't believe the lady would be so heartless towards me."

Cao Cairong sighed, "If you don't develop other intentions, the elder naturally won't. But..."

The rest of the sentence, Cao Cairong didn't say; she believed Fan Yang understood.

Indeed, Fan Yang did understand, but his gaze towards Chu Mo was still filled with resentment.

Chu Mo seemed to sense it but didn't turn around. To him, Yiyi's handsome and dashing admirer posed no threat at all. As for the fact that the admirer considered him a love rival, Chu Mo cared even less. In his heart, he never truly considered marrying Yiyi.

He thought, the engagement would, at a suitable time in the future, be dissolved. Then, I will compensate Yiyi and the Shui Family.

Some feelings are simply not meant to be forced. However, the world is ever-changing, and no one can predict what the future may hold.

Chu Qing spoke softly at the moment, "That middle-aged man from before seemed off."

Yiyi nodded, "He claimed that Hanging City was his, and not a single native of Hanging City objected. Furthermore, the people... seemed to hold a lot of reverence for him. Such a person would unlikely remain so unaffected after losing two supreme artifacts."

"I was thinking the same," Chu Qing said with a frown, a contemplative look on his face. "It doesn't make sense... The descendant of the Chu Family should have some influence on this heavenly road."

"In any case, I feel something isn't quite right, so we better leave Hanging City sooner rather than later," Yiyi said.

Chu Mo had been silent, but in fact, inside his heart, he had already recognized the danger that middle-aged man represented. For he was a high-ranking Emperor, a true powerhouse in the seventh heavenly layer of the Emperor Realm!

From the first time he saw him, the Heavenly Mirror of the Firmament already provided him with the information.

For such an important figure to show little reaction to the loss of two supreme artifacts was certainly abnormal.

But Chu Mo was not very afraid in his heart.

After entering the true immortal stage, he could now control and wield his perfect avatar, exhibiting the power of the eighth heavenly layer of the Emperor Realm!

Despite not having reached the Emperor Realm personally and thus not fully comprehending the Emperor level Dao, he could still let his perfect avatar unleash a powerful pressure and, in close combat, exhibit the fighting capabilities of the eighth heavenly layer to the fullest.

Most importantly, this card had still not been revealed to the outside world...

When confronting Qin Xiaotian earlier, Chu Mo had prepared to reveal this trump, but in the end, he chose the riskier path of undergoing tribulation.

Because on this heavenly road, the most dangerous entities were not the cultivators from the Heavenly Realm. It was the indigenous powerhouses of the road!

Once this card was played too early and his secret became known, establishing a surprise victory against a native powerhouse would become nearly impossible.

Others were not fools; knowing you had an Emperor Realm avatar, would they not be prepared?

Honestly, I wasn't planning on a burst of writing today; my arm hurts, and after seeing Wind Striding Under Heaven's arm the other day, I felt like I caught it... but today I'm surprisingly in good condition, tired, but spirited, don't know why but let's continue!
