Xia Yan's roar wasn't just sound; it was like an invisible giant hand, brutally tearing apart the darkness and star river entangled high in the sky!
The two world-ending energies instantly dissipated.
Xia Yao and Kachi's figures reappeared. Both had slightly disheveled hair, and their clothes still bore the embers of each other's energy. They remained in the sky, ten thousand meters high, their gazes locked in a battle, neither willing to concede.
But they no longer dared to fight. They both descended and stood to the side.
Xia Nuo flinched when he saw Xia Yan's face, blacker than the bottom of a pot.
He quickly brushed the dust off himself, trying to tidy his tattered attire, and forced a respectful expression.
"Uncle."
He called out, but his eyes uncontrollably drifted to Chu He, his gaze incredibly complex, filled with both admiration and a sense of tragic grandeur, as if he were watching a martyr about to die for love.
Xia Yan's gaze swept across the scene like a knife.
He first glared fiercely at Xia Yao and Kachi, who both instinctively flinched.
Then, his gaze fell upon the disheveled Xia Nuo, his brow furrowing into a knot.
Finally, his mountain-like pressure locked firmly onto the only person in the field who remained calm and composed – Chu He.
"Speak. What exactly happened!"
Xia Yan's voice was suppressed, like a volcano on the verge of eruption.
"If you dare to lie to me even by a single word, I'll tell your mothers immediately!"
As soon as he said this, Xia Yao's face instantly turned pale, her eyes revealing unconcealed panic.
Kachi, however, merely pouted, looking indifferent, like a dead pig not afraid of boiling water.
Xia Nuo was the first to speak, recounting the events to him in detail!
Xia Yan was utterly shocked after listening.
Two SSS-class girls, who used to find men dirty just by looking at them, were fighting a cataclysmic battle over a human they had known for less than three days?
And both of them had a deep connection with Chu He!
He secretly thought, Is he really that charming? To have made them so invested in such a short time.
Xia Yan said, "So after all this fuss, it all comes down to you, Chu He. You're something else. In just two days, you've stirred the emotions of my precious niece and her best friend, and now they're fighting and killing for you."
"Uncle! It's not his fault!" Xia Yao interjected urgently, her face full of panic.
"Uncle, I was the one who approached him first," Kachi said, crossing her arms. Her tone was calm, but her stance was clear.
After speaking, they instinctively glared at each other again, as if competing for the right to take the blame for Chu He.
Xia Nuo, inspired by the tragic epic, puffed out his chest, a look of noble misunderstanding on his face. "Uncle! You don't understand! This isn't a fight over a lover; it's a collision of souls! A duel to defend love!"
Xia Yan's eye twitched violently. He was so angered by this rhetoric that he almost couldn't breathe.
"All of you, shut up!"
"I'm talking to Chu He!"
Chu He said helplessly, "Alas, it was out of necessity."
"It's just my damn charm, always having nowhere to go."
He turned and smiled at the two girls, who had stopped fighting but were still shooting daggers at each other with their eyes, "Don't you agree?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Yao immediately forgot her conflict with Kachi and loudly agreed without thinking, "Brother is the most handsome and charming man in the world, no, in the entire universe!"
"Naturally," Kachi said, crossing her arms and lifting her chin, not to be outdone as she snatched the conversation. "No one matters to me more than my little He He!"
"Matters?"
Hearing this, Xia Yao's eyes instantly turned red. The embers that had just died down flared up three times higher.
"Kachi, you shorty! Do you think 'mattering' can compare to me? Chu He is the one I've chosen!"
Kachi glanced at her dismissively. "Who are you calling a shorty? In terms of feelings, yours is just a momentary impulse. What else do you have?"
Xia Yao puffed out her chest, her determined gaze becoming even more evident. She smiled at the corner of her lips with the air of a victor. "You're right. With just this conviction, I can beat you!"
"Is that so?" Kachi smiled slyly, a flicker of amusement in her star-river-like eyes. "But there's one thing you can never beat me at."
Xia Yao instinctively asked, "What is it?"
Kachi enunciated each word clearly, her voice crisp, but the content made the scene freeze.
"I, understand, him, better, than, you!"
As her voice fell, the entire playground fell into a brief silence.
"You... you're talking nonsense!" Xia Yao's face turned bright red, fuming with anger.
Meanwhile, the two grown men were also stunned.
Xia Nuo's jaw almost hit his feet.
The magnificent epic he had just constructed in his mind, titled Martyrdom for Love, was completely ruined by these simple words.
What divine duel, what collision of souls...
How did this turn into a competition of who understands the other better!
He looked at Kachi again. Kachi, who in his mind was shrewd, incredibly smart, and ethereal, now seemed to have gained a bit more earthly charm.
Beside them, Xia Yan's rugged face had gone from soot-black to a bruised purple. As a dignified SSS-class Ghost Chef, a powerful figure who commanded a region, he found the girls' argument, while not entirely outrageous, enough to give him a headache.
He could even feel the slight trembling of his two Multi-armed Monster subordinates behind him, who were trying to suppress their laughter but dared not.
Truly, a headache!
Chu He's mouth twitched incessantly. Why were these two girls arguing again? Kachi's mind worked too fast.
He re-examined Kachi before him. Standing just under 1.5 meters tall, her face was as youthful as a middle schooler's. Her star-spun short skirt made her appear even more petite and adorable, radiating a pure innocence that seemed to drip with sweetness.
Yet, it was precisely this pure and flawless face that always managed to utter words capable of instantly changing the atmosphere.
This little clever imp...
The two bantered back and forth, and dangerous energy fluctuations began to emanate from their surroundings. They looked ready to fight each other in the sky for another three hundred rounds if words failed them.
"Uncle, look." Chu He spread his hands innocently.
"You've seen it too. I don't want this, but they insist on it." He wore a look of profound sorrow, as if burdened by the world's affection. "Now, even if I wanted to distance myself, I'm afraid they wouldn't allow it."
As he said this, Chu He's mind was clearer than ever.
At first, he had been genuinely worried that if things were exposed, Xia Yao, with her straightforward nature, might turn against him out of love turned hate, and in a fit of rage, chop him up.
But after this morning's farce, he finally understood.
Their feelings for him were unreasonably strong.
Once they set their minds on something, they would mindlessly defend him, utterly incapable of harboring any thought of harming him.
So, what was there to fear!
From now on, he should truly let loose and act without any psychological pressure.
Wait, I'm a pure love warrior. I should still restrain myself a bit, unless absolutely necessary
