Transmigrating into the body of a white-haired fairy, she also encounters a late-born woman seeking

On the arena.

Lin Xi and Liu Tianhao faced off against each other.

Liu Tianhao sized up Lin Xi, a glint of light appearing in his eyes.

"Fairy Lin Xi, I've heard that you've been getting quite close to Chu Yang lately?"

"What guidance does Senior Brother Liu Tianhao have?"

"I dare not presume to offer advice. It was just that Chu Yang bullied my younger brother and injured him not long ago. I will certainly settle this score regarding the grudge from last time."

"Settle this matter?" Lin Xi raised her eyebrows slightly.

"You mean you also want to challenge Chu Yang?"

"That's true, but it's a pity that his opponent this time was Shen Lingtian. He's quite strong, but he could only make it to the top eight."

"Chu Yang is arrogant and disdainful of all the Xuanling Sect disciples upon his arrival. Fairy, you should abandon such a person as soon as possible to avoid bringing disaster upon yourself," Liu Tianhao said coldly.

"Really? How could he possibly disregard the disciples of my Xuanling Sect? Could you please explain more clearly, Senior Brother?"

Liu Tianhao said, somewhat unexpectedly:

"Junior Sister seems to really care about Chu Yang, just like the rumors say..."

"Could it be that you like Chu Yang?"

Lin Xi calmly replied, "How can you tell whether I like you or not based on just a few words?"

"I am merely stating the facts. Did Chu Yang spout nonsense or insult you with his words and actions? Why are you all so resistant to him?"

"And does Senior Brother really think you can defeat Chu Yang?"

"No one in the entire sect is confident of this, yet Senior Brother is so self-assured?"

Liu Tianhao immediately looked at her with a sinister gaze.

"Physical strength alone is not enough to reach the top."

"And the next match is between Shen Lingtian and Chu Yang. Do you think he can win?"

Lin Xi immediately realized that Chu Yang's outstanding physical performance last time made him think that Chu Yang was only physically strong.

Liu Tianhao's method was to suppress physical strength.

Therefore, even though Chu Yang had previously crushed Wu Shan, the chief of Qi Peak, he did not believe he would lose to him.

"And since Junior Sister is so open about protecting him, does she also favor him in his next match against Shen Lingtian? Could it be that Junior Sister has already abandoned Shen Lingtian and returned to Chu Yang's arms?"

Seeing Liu Tianhao's ambiguous smile, Lin Xi's eyes darkened.

Please refrain from using such foul language.

"Senior brother, there's no need to waste your breath. Please enlighten me."

As she spoke, she immediately brandished her white crane sword, transforming into a streak of sword light that slashed towards Liu Tianhao...

In one of the audience seats.

The two did not conceal their conversation, and almost everyone in the audience could hear it.

Upon hearing Lin Xi's protectiveness towards Chu Yang, a complex expression appeared on Zhong Shuyun's face.

She looked at Chu Yang beside her.

"Junior Brother Chu Yang, I never expected my silly junior sister to be so biased towards you..."

Now, Lin Xi is being very protective of Chu Yang in public, and she looks just like a wife who is protecting her husband.

Based on her own situation, she could be certain that her second junior sister was in love with Chu Yang, given that she had gone to such lengths.

Chu Yang also looked at Lin Xi on the arena with a rather complicated expression.

Her actions warmed his heart, but he couldn't be sure if she really liked him.

Because she is someone who can distinguish right from wrong and understands the bigger picture.

She was able to defend herself in public because of her engagement.

This behavior can stem from a sense of responsibility, or it can be something other than liking...

"Senior Sister, you're seriously injured right now, and you have a match tomorrow. Shouldn't you go get treatment and rest?"

Looking at Zhong Shuyun, who looked rather haggard, Shi Xiaoman said with concern.

Even when the eldest sister defeated Liu Zanghai, she almost fell into a coma.

Zhong Shuyun gently shook her head, "Now is a crucial time for Second Junior Sister, it won't matter if we miss a little while."

"Don't worry, I can continue to participate in competitions later."

Actually, it wasn't just because of her second junior sister's fight.

That's also why I met Chu Yang here.

He was, after all, her fiancé, and she couldn't just ignore everything.

We still need to find out what the other party's purpose is.

However, from the beginning until now, despite the repeated battles between the second junior sister and Liu Tianhao, Chu Yang, as her fiancé, has remained expressionless.

Even if the second junior sister is in danger.

This made her somewhat dissatisfied.

"Second Junior Sister's enemy this time is not to be underestimated; it won't be easy for her to win."

"Senior Sister Shu Yun, she should be fine," Chu Yang said after hesitating for a moment.

"No problem? Second Junior Sister is indeed powerful, but her current opponent is Liu Tianhao, who is comparable to the Chief. It's not so easy to win."

"With his Yin Sha Divine Body and Emperor-level cultivation techniques, even I am not confident of defeating him," Zhong Shuyun said, shaking her head with a sigh.

Chu Yang said, "She is no longer the same as before; winning or losing is just a matter of a turning point."

Zhong Shuyun's eyes brightened slightly. "You mean Second Junior Sister can really win?"

"The chances are not small."

"The chances are pretty good?"

"......"

Zhong Shuyun gave Chu Yang a deep look.

Therefore, even if the change in the second junior sister is not fundamental, it must be due to Chu Yang's assistance.

Is Chu Yang also teaching his second junior sister how to defeat Liu Tianhao?

This Chu Yang is truly extraordinary...

In a daze, she recalled that when she and her junior sister went to her second junior sister's bedroom in the middle of the night, she saw her second junior sister's dazed appearance and the lingering yang energy in her body. She had reason to suspect that it was Chu Yang who had created it in the middle of the night.

He might have actually been there.

"Even if what Junior Brother Chu Yang said is true, even if Second Junior Sister wins, it will inevitably result in mutual destruction."

"That Liu Tianhao has spared no effort and used any means necessary to become the chief of Zidan Peak. He wouldn't even show any mercy to his junior sister."

Zhong Shuyun's words made Chu Yang frown slightly.

Seeing Chu Yang fall silent, Zhong Shuyun's eyes brightened slightly.

"Junior Brother Chu Yang, have you seen Second Junior Sister, who is severely injured, since you met?"

"If she is seriously injured in this battle..."

Upon hearing this, Chu Yang's heart sank.

The only time I've seen her seriously injured in all this time was when she single-handedly helped me hold off the four major sects in the Crimson Yuan Ruins, and her whole body was corroded by the Bone-Corroding Poison.

He stood before me, covered in wounds.

There was not a trace of complaint in her eyes.

But keep a certain distance from yourself.

They didn't choose to rely on themselves...

In an instant, a feeling of irritation welled up in Chu Yang's heart.

He felt touched by Lin Xi's care for him, but she didn't stand before him with the genuine affection he desired...
