Chapter 2262: Donglin Yanxue’s Arrival (1/2)
Wen Cheng’s face immediately sank. Even though he was exasperated, he dared not agree to it. He became even less confident after Jian Chen used the Radiant Palm. If he was defeated again and sent flying out of the ring with a slap, he really would no longer have the dignity to remain alive.
“Hehehe, impressive. The two of you only need to fight again, and you’ll be able to determine whether Wen Chong lost purposefully or not,” at this moment, a pleasant giggle rang out. A beautiful woman flew over from the distance, directly flying onto the Soaring Clouds Peak and arriving near Jian Chen.
“It’s Donglin Yanxue of the five candidates. W- why has she come…”
The woman’s arrival immediately led to cries in the surroundings. At that moment, everyone shifted their gazes from Wen Cheng and Jian Chen to her. Many of the gazes were filled with infatuation and love.
The arrival of Donglin Yanxue surprised Wen Cheng slightly as well. He looked at Donglin Yanxue’s almost-sacred beauty, and a sliver of well-hidden admiration appeared in the depths of his eyes as well. However, his face immediately became ashen when he thought about what she had just said.
“Why’ve you come?” Jian Chen looked at Donglin Yanxue and asked in surprise.
Donglin Yanxue raised an eyebrow and said, “What, your Soaring Clouds Peak does not welcome me?”
Jian Chen smiled bitterly, “How could we not welcome any of the five candidates? It’s just that you really haven’t come at a good time.”
“Really?” Donglin Yanxue smiled gently, “But I feel like I’ve come at the perfect time.”
Bai Yu, who stood to one side, also became dumbfounded when she saw Jian Chen interact with Donglin Yanxue so freely like he knew her already. Bai Yu struggled to imagine just how her senior Chang Yang was able to get to know one of the revered candidates, Donglin Yanxue.
There were many people who were deeply infatuated with Donglin Yanxue among the disciples of other mountains. Their eyes had become filled with a vicious light, and they glared at Jian Chen like tigers. There were various kinds of envy and jealousy within their gazes.
Donglin Yanxue’s arrival immediately made her the centre of attention. She drew over the gazes of many powerful Radiant Saint Masters, where many of the Radiant Saint Masters with four-colored, five-colored, or even six-colored soulcores set out and gathered over.
All of these people had come for Donglin Yanxue.
“Junior Yanxue, why have you come…”
“Junior Yanxue, how can you be standing on the Soaring Clouds Peak? With your status, the measly Soaring Clouds Peak does not match you at all. Why don’t you come to our Azure Clouds Peak…”
“Junior Yanxue, if you don’t mind, you’re welcome to come to our Thunder Cry Peak. Our peak lord has already prepared wonderful alcohol…”
…
At that moment, all the Radiant Saint Masters with four-colored soulcores or above extended their invitations to Donglin Yanxue.
However, Jian Chen immediately felt various cold gazes land on him from the Radiant Saint Masters in the surroundings. It made him smile bitterly inside.
He really had no idea whether Donglin Yanxue’s arrival was a curse or a blessing.
Donglin Yanxue looked at Wen Cheng and said calmly, “What do you think of the proposal I mentioned before? You and Chang Yang can spar again so that you can show whether your defeat last time was really due to Gongzheng Xin’s plans, or you were just not as powerful as Chang Yang.”
