Chapter 138: Stunning Beauty

This thought quickly vanished from Chi Hou's mind.

Then, he felt like laughing. A poor person from the village who hadn't even entered a Hall of Dao, had already reached his maximum glory in the capital examination.

Even if he really was able to take another step forward, how could he compare with Chi Guyan, who possessed the ”Xuan Heavenly Dao Body”?

This promise...

He didn't even have to bother about it. Because, two years later, it would naturally be voided.

Chi Hou thought this way. The officials from the Northern Desert five capitals, as well as all the scholars on the scene thought this way. How can the glow of a fire compare with the brightness of the moon?

”He actually said that he can?!”

”This confidence is indeed shocking, don't tell me that he doesn't find it funny at all?”

”Really shameless! A person who had only reached Star Conglomerate dreaming of defeating Chi Guyan, who possesses the ”Xuan Heavenly Dao Body” as well as attained the Heavenly Reflection Peak Stage, in two years?”

The officials of the five capitals of the Northern Desert and the scholars didn't pay attention to Fang Zhengzhi's expression like Chi Hou did. Instead, when they heard Fang Zhengzhi's words, they were instantly filled with despise.

Right at this moment, Chi Guyan, who had all along remained silent, suddenly spoke.

”Since you feel it is possible, that means we have affirmed our promise. Then, please unveil this veil from my face now!”

Chi Guyan's voice wasn't very loud, but, it caused everybody's laughter and chattering to stop completely.

Everybody feel as if they had been struck by lightning. Chi Hou, Mrs Chi as well as the officials and scholars were stunned once again.

Those officials and scholars that spoke a moment ago glanced at one another without their mouth agape.

Because, they would never have thought, Chi Guyan actually believed it?!

Furthermore, she invited Fang Zhengzhi to unveil her?!

How is this possible?

Everybody felt that Chi Guyan didn't have to bother about Fang Zhengzhi, and even didn't have to go according to her promise. Because, this was a promise that could never come true.

Even if she had to honour her promise, all she had to do was to bestow a title upon Fang Zhengzhi. Then, after two years, the promise would naturally be voided.

It simply didn't require such a move.

Was Chi Guyan dumb?

This naturally wasn't possible...

But, Chi Guyan didn't make a smart move, just as if how nobody knew why Chi Guyan would suddenly leave the Heaven Dao Pavilion.

These moves were completely unbelievable.

Don't tell me in her heart, Chi Guyan believes in this promise? Or perhaps, Chi Guyan believes that Fang Zhengzhi would really be able to defeat her?

Everybody quickly dismissed that thought. Because, there was simply nobody who believed that these two possibilities existed.

But...

Other than these two possibilities, what other way was there to explain this incident.

”Guyan… this matter…”

”Father lord, my decision has already been made!” Chi Guyan looked at Chi Hou and immediately cut his sentence short, looking at Fang Zhengzhi with a pair of eyes as bright as stars. The look in her eyes told everybody that Fang Zhengzhi was free to continue.

At this moment, Fang Zhengzhi was slightly bewildered.

What is this all about?

Has Chi Guyan's brain been struck by lightning?

Did a big cabbage suddenly grow in Chi Guyan's brain? In reality, Fang Zhengzhi similarly felt that it was already sufficient for Chi Guyan to announce this promise. Further customs and practices were simply unnecessary.

Because…

Even he himself didn't believe that this was a promise that could be accomplished.

Then, why did she do this?

What are her motives?

Don't tell me it is another trap for me to step into? Fang Zhengzhi was rather hesitant. He really didn't understand what Chi Guyan stood to gain from doing this.

”I don't wish for my fiancé to be humiliated. Even if it is only on the surface, that still cannot be tolerated!” When Chi Guyan saw that Fang Zhengzhi didn't move, her lips parted slightly and a soft voice entered Fang Zhengzhi's ears.

”Fiancé? Humiliated?” Fang Zhengzhi was slightly taken aback. For the first time, he saw a trace of seriousness in Chi Guyan's expression. Because, Chi Guyan's reason was very simple, but, it was truer than any other reason.

”Don't tell me you can't?” Chi Guyan saw that Fang Zhengzhi didn't act, and the mocking look of a lady appeared in her eyes. But, that mocking look disappeared in a flash.

”I can't?!” Fang Zhengzhi didn't know whether Chi Guyan exchanged the word ”dare” with ”can” on purpose, but this sentence was an insult to any man.

Even though he clearly knew that Chi Guyan was goading him, he still acted without the slightest bit of further hesitation.

Chi Guyan indeed didn't move. Furthermore, she didn't even intend to resist. She stood, just like that, quietly on the spot, giving permission for Fang Zhengzhi to remove the veil on her face.

Hence, a soft veil ended up on Fang Zhengzhi's hand.

Then…
