Chapter 8: The Azure Fairy? What’s This Girl Doing Here?:
"Yanran, you made a breakthrough in the midst of battle shows that your talent and understanding are unparalleled. In the future, as you cultivate in my Cloud Sect, your future is limitless. Don't worry about winning or losing this one time."
Xu Wenshan spoke soothingly.
Although Nalan Yanran felt disappointed, she didn't dare to act out in front of Xu Wenshan and could only lower her head in silence.
The crowd below wholeheartedly agreed with Xu Wenshan's assessment.
At seventeen, Nalan Yanran could make a breakthrough to the Meridian Refining Realm in the midst of battle, which meant she would undoubtedly reach the Qi Sea Realm or even the Core Formation Realm in the future. She would certainly secure a place in the Cloud Sect.
After all, in the hundreds of years of Qingyun City’s history, no one as brilliant as her had ever appeared…
Today's defeat wasn’t because she was weak but because her opponent was simply too formidable.
Yes, the only way to describe Ye Wuhen was as a monster.
When it came to his cultivation base…
His cultivation wasn’t high at all, probably just at the Qi Gathering Realm. From start to finish, he hadn’t used any spiritual Qi.
That was the most terrifying part!!!
Without using spiritual Qi, he had kicked Nalan Yanran away three times in a row.
If he had used spiritual Qi, his combat strength would have soared even higher…
The crowd couldn’t imagine the level Ye Wuhen would reach if he fought at full strength!!!
Could he go head-to-head with someone in the middle stage of the Meridian Refining Realm? Or perhaps the later stages?
Surely, he wouldn't be able to fight someone in the Qi Sea Realm, right?...
…
After comforting Nalan Yanran, Xu Wenshan turned to look at Ye Wuhen.
"Ye Wuhen, right!"
"From the beginning, you've grabbed my attention."
"After this fight, I'm even more mystified by you!!!"
"I’ll settle today's matter."
"You and Nalan Yanran will both join my Cloud Sect."
"I can assure you, at the very least, you'll be an inner disciple… you might even become a core disciple."
"As for your engagement, there’s no need to discuss it further..."
"A prodigy and a genius, it’s a match made in heaven."
"Once you’ve both trained for a few years and laid a solid foundation, you’ll be joined as celestial partners!"
Xu Wenshan’s words instantly fired up the crowd once again.
No one expected this outcome.
The feud between the two families resulted in the engagement remaining intact.
The Cloud Sect even extended an olive branch to Ye Wuhen…
Though unexpected, everyone quickly understood this result.
Nalan Yanran’s talent and comprehension were already proven.
Ye Wuhen, the monster…
He easily crushed Nalan Yanran; any sect would want to recruit him.
…
"Great… Wonderful!"
The Ye family was the first to respond, many of their members beaming with joy.
After facing countless difficulties, they had finally found a way out!!!
Initially, they thought the annulment was inevitable, and the Ye family had braced themselves for decline.
Who would have thought that Ye Wuhen, whom they never regarded highly, would turn the tide single-handedly.
After joining the Cloud Sect…
Not only would the Ye family avoid decline, but their status in Qingyun City would be more solid than ever.
As for the Nalan family…
Though they felt displeased, they had to admit this was the best outcome.
If the Cloud Sect had to choose between the two, Nalan Yanran might not even be able to compare to Ye Wuhen.
Just when everyone thought the matter was coming to an end…
Ye Wuhen’s next move left everyone wide-eyed and breathless.
"Join the Cloud Sect?"
"And keep the engagement with her?"
"Sorry, I’m not interested in either option!!!"
After hearing Xu Wenshan’s proposal, Ye Wuhen waved his hand and flatly refused.
Many people felt an urge to bang their heads against a wall.
What was he saying?
Not interested in joining the Cloud Sect?
Not interested in continuing the engagement with Nalan Yanran???
Bro… Do you understand the significance of the Cloud Sect?
Within a hundred miles, the Cloud Sect was the most prestigious presence.
Countless people tried every means to join the Cloud Sect but were turned away.
Now, the Cloud Sect elder personally extended an olive branch to you…
And he said he wasn’t interested?
And your tone… was filled with disdain???
And Nalan Yanran, even though she was crushed by him, was still a prodigy among prodigies!
Her beauty and figure were perfect… How could he be disdainful!!!
…
"What? Do you think my Cloud Sect isn’t worthy of you?"
"Or do you think Nalan Yanran isn’t worthy of you?"
Xu Wenshan was stunned by Ye Wuhen’s response, and asked coldly.
He wanted to recruit Ye Wuhen because the Cloud Sect had a special reward system.
Recruiting a talented disciple would earn rewards based on that disciple’s potential, and further achievements by the disciple would bring more rewards.
Although he wasn’t sure if Ye Wuhen was leveraging the Qi of the heavens and earth, if he was, he was undoubtedly a peerless genius. Recruiting him into the Cloud Sect would bring unimaginable benefits.
But…
If this brat didn’t appreciate the opportunity, Xu Wenshan wouldn’t mind nipping this potential threat in the bud!
"Wuhen, accept Elder Xu’s kind offer!"
"Yes, Wuhen… The Cloud Sect is a top-tier cultivation sanctuary. Joining them will greatly benefit you!"
Ye family members quickly advised, hearing Xu Wenshan’s displeased tone.
But Ye Wuhen remained unmoved.
Are you kidding…
A mere Cloud Sect, he had destroyed countless times before, and now they wanted him to join???
Just as Ye Wuhen was about to refuse again…
A faint yet familiar female voice suddenly appeared!
"The Cloud Sect… A sanctuary for cultivation? What a joke…"
"No need for him to answer, I’ll tell you!"
"Indeed, your Cloud Sect… is unworthy!"
"And this girl named Nalan Yanran…"
"You… are also unworthy!!!"
With this voice, the heavens and earth trembled slightly.
Then, everyone saw… a figure like a celestial fairy, surrounded by seven-colored radiance, appeared in mid-air!!!
The first reaction of everyone seeing this figure was… stunned!!!
Seven-colored spiritual Qi…
This was a phenomenon only seen when the Core Formation Realm expert was cultivating!!!
And Ye Wuhen’s first reaction was…
“Holy crap! The Holy Maiden of Qingxuan Immortal Land?”
“What’s this girl doing in Qingyun City!!!”
