Chapter 99: Xu Bing, ice pheonix(3)
Xu Bing wore a perplexed expression on her face as she couldn't comprehend her current situation.
Logically, Jingxue should have been heartbroken to hear about her engagement, considering she has a Daoist companion. Turning her head to the side, Xu Bing was even more puzzled after seeing the reactions of Fu Ting and the redhead.
Xiao Chen had a thoughtful look after hearing Xu Bing's words. There was no such engagement between Tang Jingxue and Ye Fan in the original plot line.
When he heard there was an engagement between him and Jingxue, he felt ridiculous in his heart. Naturally, he knew about the rivalry between the Immortal Ye family and the Absolute Yin Palace, and rather than calling it a rivalry, it would be more suitable if we could call it a blood feud.
He couldn't believe the two great enemies would arrange an engagement between them. In the original plot line, The Absolute Yin Palace supported Ye fan because they can make use of his hatred against the Ye family as an opportunity to weaken their enemy's strength.
If Xu Bing's words were true, Members of the two forces would be in an uproar and They would definitely protest against this decision,
'The power to resolve their anger and convince them..'
'Is this the doing of Jingxue's Mom and that mysterious leader?'
'But What would they benefit from this engagement?'
'From a strategic point of view and considering everything I know from the plot viewing a ticket, It looks I am the one who benefits the most from this series of events'
Realizing this, Xiao Chen frowned in confusion because even with the use of two plot viewing tickets, the information he knew about Jingxue's mother and Ye Family leader was so minimal that he could say he knew nothing about them and It should be the same for them as they hadn't met at all nor anyone was observing him…..
As he was thought of this, Xiao Chen recalled his thoughts before He killed Ye fan in the Crimson Ridge Mountains. When he was relishing the moment before his victory, He noticed an abnormality in the moon. While he was gazing at the moon, the Moon was also glazing at him.
At that time, He dismissed it as him being overly cautious But now He couldn't help but think otherwise. Even if the information he obtained from the plot viewing ticket isn't 100% true, Xiao Chen couldn't shake off his suspicions and he decided to confirm it. He raised his head, looked at the sky which was tainted red by the setting sun and on the opposite side, the vague shadow of the moon.
Normally, He would've appreciated this wonderful scene but knowing these two could potentially spy on him, A creepy shiver went down his spine.
Xiao Chen immediately asked the system, He could have asked Fu Ting or Rongmei as they reached the realm where plucking the sun, moon, and star with their hands can be done with ease.Yet he chooses to ask the system. He knew what would happen if He asked them. The result would be the turning of the sun and moon into ashes.
The cultivators of the Azure jade continent have to wait for the sun and moon to remerge and the formation of the Sun and moon takes a massive amount of Yin and Yang dao energies.
'System, Is there someone spying on me in the dark?'
While asking this, He used his ability to sense emotion with a dao of darkness and light but He couldn't feel a thing, It was as if the sun and moon were really non-living beings with no emotions.
[Ding! Host, please rest assured. There is no one spying on the host at this moment]
'You mean They were before?' Xiao Chen asked as he interpreted the system's words.
["_"]
The system went silent and No matter How many he asked, it didn't respond to him. What frustrated him most was that He couldn't feel a hint of malice from the system.
On the contrary, the System was overflowing with good emotions. This meant Whoever observed him before didn't have anything against him because When Fu Ting had suspicions about him and peeked at him from the void, the System immediately alerted him of the danger.
Xiao Chen's thoughts came to a stop with Xu Bing's sudden exclamation, making him snap back to his senses.
"H-he is the young master of the Immortal Ye family!?"
Xu Bing exclaimed after hearing Jingxue's words. She asked Jingxue as She couldn't stand the awkward mood and the peering eyes of the two women beside Xiao Chen. While Xu Bing asked her, She prepared herself for anything but hearing her words, She was utterly shocked.
'Madam Yuena and that one…What are they planning?' Xu Bing thought in astonishment.
When Xu Bing heard about this engagement, She thought it was a conspiracy but seeing that the main characters of this event were staying together and even become Daoist companions, Xu Bing's thoughts were thrown into dismay.
"Xu Bing, Let's go inside the palace and talk !"
"Aunt Fu, Xiao Chen, and Sister Mei Come on in"
Tang Jingxue dragged the dazed Xu Bing, she walked into the palace and asked them to come inside the palace.
Seeing this, Xiao Chen decided to think about this matter later. He was relieved as He wasn't in danger for now and He knew being scared wouldn't do any good.
Shaking his head, Xiao Chen turned his attention to his sides as Both of them were eerily silent.
Xiao Chen chuckled at the depressed expressions of Fu Ting and Rongmei. Even if they tried to hide it, He could still see the envy and jealousy hidden in the depths of their eyes. He smirked in amusement as He could figure out the reason behind their droopy mood.
