Golden Spring, Jade Dew, Golden Radiance Piercing the Rainbow

A voice as clear as a golden spring and as smooth as jade was filled with bone-chilling coldness.

Golden glow blazed brilliantly. Layer upon layer of moon shadows fell with clear radiance, drifting silken threads swirling as they condensed into arrows.

Chen Ping'an stood in the air, his pale white hair scattering in the wind, revealing a face resembling that of the Dream-Eating Lotus Lord.

Chen Ping'an had not expected Hua Ruyue to attack the moment she spoke.

He had merely mentioned the word transaction, yet her reaction had been so intense.

No!

More precisely, it was only after he mentioned Demon King Blood that her attitude had taken a sharp turn for the worse, frost and coldness spreading over her as she treated him like a great enemy.

What was going on?

Was there some misunderstanding here?

Who would have thought Hua Ruyue would be so fierce? At the slightest disagreement, she directly drew her bow and condensed arrows.

Anyone unaware of the truth might think she was the Celestial, while he was the Great Grandmaster.

With cultivation at the Great Grandmaster realm, daring to challenge a Martial Dao Celestial—this Hua Ruyue had some nerve!

Could this be the classic scene from legendary novels, where the Heavenly Mandate protagonist confronted the villain head-on across realms?

"Have I become the villain?"

Chen Ping'an's thoughts twisted and turned, ten thousand thoughts flashing through his mind in an instant.

"Fellow Daoist Hua, why are you acting like this!?" Chen Ping'an looked surprised, still wanting to see whether there was some misunderstanding.

This opportunity was rare. Hua Ruyue might possess demon beast blood that he desired. It would be a great pity to give it up out of thin air.

He still wanted to see whether there was room to turn things around.
