Yuan Xiaoyu: Am I the Other Woman?
After listening to Chen Changqing's words, the Human King showed little emotion and said calmly:
"This Medicine God Valley is one of the Ten Great Orthodox Sacred Lands."
"The daughter of Hua Gu is quite a match for you."
Throughout history, powerful men have often been surrounded by beautiful women.
"When I was young, wasn't I the same?"
At this point, the Human King paused briefly, then changed the subject:
"But what does this have to do with your wedding with Xiaoyu?"
"Could it be that you just want to carry the title of the Imperial Son-in-law of the Divine Dynasty?"
The Human King's expression changed, and his aura surged forth, instantly creating a sense of oppression that gripped Chen Changqing's heart.
Chen Changqing didn't pay any attention to this.
He knew in his heart that it was already quite good that the Human King hadn't been furious with what he had said.
After a slight pause, he explained:
"Your Majesty the Human King."
"What I mean is, I'll become the prince consort of this Divine Dynasty."
"But how about we... just call it a day? Let's keep everything simple."
Upon hearing Chen Changqing's words, the Human King's expression softened considerably, and his brows relaxed.
Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Xiaoyu's expression turned somewhat strange.
Just then, Chen Changqing pursed his lips and said again:
"Actually, besides Hua Yao from Medicine God Valley, there's... another one."
Upon hearing this, the Human King glanced at him slightly and said directly:
"Is that the little girl from the Maple Leaf Dynasty?"
"Um."
Chen Changqing nodded.
How could he not know Liu Ruyan's feelings for him?
Moreover, before coming to the Divine Dynasty, Liu Ruyan had confessed her feelings to him in person and asked him if he was willing to be the master of the Maple Leaf Dynasty.
She could wait for him if she wanted.
Of course, both the Human King and Xuanyuan Xiaoyu noticed that Liu Ruyan had feelings for Chen Changqing.
Earlier in the main hall, when Chen Changqing agreed to become the son-in-law of the Divine Dynasty, both of them keenly noticed that Liu Ruyan seemed to have lost her soul.
After a brief silence, Xuanyuan Xiaoyu suddenly raised her hand, counting on her fingers as she spoke:
"So, Hua Yao of Medicine God Valley is one, and Liu Ruyan of the Maple Leaf Dynasty is the second."
"Then wouldn't I be ranked third?"
At this point, Xuanyuan Xiaoyu's beautiful eyes widened in surprise, and she quickly looked at Chen Changqing, exclaiming in astonishment:
"So... I'm the other woman?"
Hearing Xuanyuan Xiaoyu's words, Chen Changqing was both amused and exasperated, and quickly said:
"Xiaoyu, you can't say things like that!"
"Oh?"
Xuanyuan Xiaoyu was taken aback, looking at Chen Changqing with confusion, wondering what was wrong with saying such things.
The Human King, was also somewhat surprised.
I think Xuanyuan Xiaoyu's calculations were accurate.
Chen Changqing was taken aback, unsure how to explain.
"Well..."
At this moment, the Human King sighed helplessly, turned his gaze, and stared directly at Chen Changqing, saying:
"Changqing, I will no longer concern myself with your affairs with Xiaoyu."
"However... once the status of the prince consort has been decided, it will not be changed."
"From this day forward, you shall be the consort of the Third Princess of my Nine Provinces Divine Dynasty, and I shall announce this to the world!"
"As for the wedding arrangements, you can discuss it yourselves!"
Whether to hold it or not is up to you two.
For the Human King, what mattered most was that Chen Changqing became his son-in-law; whether or not the wedding was held was irrelevant.
Of course, what he wanted was a real son-in-law, not just Chen Changqing with the title of imperial son-in-law.
Besides, the Human King also wanted to use this incident to annoy that old Chen Yuan.
So what if Chen Changqing is Chen Yuan's disciple?
Now he's become my son-in-law, isn't he?
"I wonder what kind of expression that old fellow Chen Yuan will have when he finds out that his prized disciple has become my son-in-law?"
"It's going to be really exciting, right?"
Upon thinking of this, the Human King couldn't help but burst into laughter:
"Ha ha!"
Then, without lingering, he got up and left.
After seeing the Human King laugh so loudly, Chen Changqing and Xuanyuan Xiaoyu couldn't help but look at each other, both of them seeing the bewilderment in each other's eyes.
"Xiaoyu, what's wrong with your father?"
Why are you suddenly laughing so happily?
Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Xiaoyu suddenly glared at Chen Changqing and said:
How would I know?
"Snort!"
With that, she gave a cold snort and added angrily:
"Are you trying to distract me?"
"I didn't realize you had so many women on the side?"
"He's even engaged to a young woman from Medicine God Valley!"
Hearing what Xuanyuan Xiaoyu said, Chen Changqing looked bitter and helpless, and explained:
"Xiaoyu, I had no choice!"
"This Hundred Dynasties War was arranged by your father; he said that if you win first place, you will become the prince consort of the Divine Dynasty."
"Besides that, you haven't asked me about my situation at all?"
"Besides, I already refused before. Didn't you send me a telepathic message in the main hall, telling me to agree to your father's request?"
After hearing Chen Changqing's words, Xuanyuan Xiaoyu was completely stunned and Chen Changqing.
She kept pursing her lips, finally managing to squeeze out only one sentence:
"Great, Chen Changqing!"
"You... you're resenting me, aren't you?"
Xuanyuan Xiaoyu pouted, looking angry.
Seeing this, Chen Changqing did not provoke Xuanyuan Xiaoyu any further.
He was truly helpless here.
Back in Medicine God Valley, he had only recently entered the Purple Mansion Realm.
The Valley Master of Medicine God Valley Hua Gu, then made an agreement with him.
They said they would agree to let Chen Changqing be with Hua Yao if he could advance to the Nascent Soul Realm within three years.
Chen Changqing agreed.
Now, with the three-year period still far off, Chen Changqing's cultivation has already broken through to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, thus fulfilling his agreement with Hua Gu.
After a long silence, seeing that Chen Changqing hadn't spoken again, Xuanyuan Xiaoyu Yuan Xiaoyu glanced at him and said:
"Hello!"
"You wouldn't be that petty, would you?"
"I'm not angry about you having other women."
Xuanyuan Xiaoyu was quite open-minded about it.
As the Human King said before, the one thing the strong have in abundance is beautiful women around them.
However, she happens to greatly admire Chen Changqing.
If that's the case, then if she still wants to be with Chen Changqing, she has to accept this reality.
Upon hearing what Xuanyuan Xiaoyu said, Chen Changqing smiled faintly and replied:
"Xiaoyu, it's good that you're not angry."
"Oh, right."
"So, what are your thoughts on having a grand wedding?"
Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Xiaoyu did not rush to give an answer. Instead, she raised her head and looked thoughtful.
As she was thinking, she suddenly looked at Chen Changqing:
"Let's do it your way."
"However... you need to promise me three things."
As she spoke, Xuanyuan Xiaoyu casually held up three fingers to Chen Changqing.
"Good!"
Chen Changqing didn't think much of it and readily agreed, which somewhat surprised Xuanyuan Xiaoyu.
