Su Chen glanced casually at the male disciples who seemed to want to tear him apart, and said, "You did this on purpose, didn't you?"
Ye Ningshuang blinked. "What are you saying? I don't understand."
Su Chen looked at her but didn't say anything.
Feeling a little guilty under that gaze, Ye Ningshuang said, "Oh, it's mainly because so many people are pursuing me. I used you as a shield to dispel their unrealistic ideas. You don't mind, do you?"
Su Chen calmly replied, "What do you think?"
Ye Ningshuang said seriously, "I am, after all, your fiancée. You wouldn't want your fiancée to be coveted by others, would you?"
Su Chen thought for a moment, then said, "I really don't want to."
Ye Ningshuang smiled and said, "That solves it."
Su Chen shook his head helplessly and said, "So that's why you insisted on bringing me to the Azure Mist Immortal Sect. But since I'm your fiancé, it's indeed necessary for me to help you."
Ye Ningshuang chuckled, "You're actually a pretty nice person."
Su Chen smiled but didn't say anything.
"Look, Senior Brother Mu is here!" someone suddenly exclaimed.
Everyone turned to look.
In the distance, Mu Xingyun, led by the young man, arrived at the library.
Mu Xingyun stared at Su Chen and Ye Ningshuang in front of the library, his forehead veins bulging again, his chest heaving, and his face turning ashen.
Seeing this, everyone retreated to a distance, each with a look of schadenfreude on their face.
Mu Xingyun stared coldly at Su Chen, her eyes flashing with a chilling light, and her aura surging violently within her.
Su Chen remained calm and unconcerned.
Ye Ningshuang frowned and said, " Mu Xingyun, what are you trying to do?"
Mu Xingyun looked at her, "Who is he?"
Before Ye Ningshuang could speak, Su Chen pulled Ye Ningshuang into his arms and said calmly, "I'm her fiancé, so what?"
Ye Ningshuang, who was in Su Chen's arms, was slightly taken aback at first. A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, her body tensed up instantly, her cheeks Hong Yun, and her heartbeat quickened involuntarily. However, she did not break free and let Su Chen hold her.
Everyone in the room stared wide-eyed at this scene, their faces filled with disbelief.
fiancé?
Is this man Ye Ningshuang's fiancé?
Holy crap!
This news is absolutely explosive!
Mu Xingyun's originally cold face instantly twisted, her eyes widened, and anger burned in them like a volcano about to erupt. A powerful aura spread from her body, causing the space around her to boil.
The boy behind him was terrified upon seeing this and quickly retreated, moving away from the area.
Mu Xingyun gritted her teeth and angrily said, "You're talking nonsense! When did Junior Sister Ye get a fiancé?"
Su Chen said calmly, "If you don't believe me, you can ask her father."
Seeing Su Chen's confidence, someone said, "Could he be telling the truth?"
Another person said, "He doesn't seem to be lying."
One of the male disciples said, "Wow, if he really is Senior Sister Ye's fiancé, that's amazing! How many simps are going to be heartbroken?"
Mu Xingyun's expression was uncertain, his heart heavy. He looked at Ye Ningshuang, "Is what he said true?"
Ye Ningshuang snapped out of her reverie, composed herself, and nodded, saying, "Mm."
Mu Xingyun clenched her fists tightly, her knuckles turning white from the force, her hands trembling slightly, her eyes filled with resentment.
At this moment, he believed what Su Chen said, because Ye Ningshuang wouldn't lie about this. However, he was also extremely unwilling, and finally, in a fit of anger and embarrassment, he said, "What makes you think you can be Junior Sister Ye's fiancé? You're not worthy!"
Su Chen said calmly, "If I'm not worthy, then are you?"
Mu Xingyun gritted his teeth, his face so dark it seemed to drip water, "I challenge you to a duel to the death!"
These words immediately caused an uproar in the room.
"It seems Senior Brother Mu is quite angry, he's even brought up a life-or-death duel."
"That's normal. Everyone knows that Senior Brother Mu was the one who pursued Senior Sister Ye the most fiercely. Now that he knows Senior Sister Ye has a fiancé, it's no wonder he's angry."
"A duel to the death! I wonder if this man dares to accept."
"Senior Brother Mu was at the Immortal Venerable Fifth Stage a year ago, and he's probably broken through to the Immortal Venerable Sixth Stage this year. If this man doesn't have the strength to take the hit head-on, he'll probably be beaten to death."
Ye Ningshuang angrily retorted, " Mu Xingyun, you're being ridiculous!"
"Snort!"
Mu Xingyun ignored Ye Ningshuang, her gaze fixed on Su Chen. "Do you dare? If you win, Junior Sister Ye is mine; if I lose, Junior Sister Ye is yours!"
"You..."
Ye Ningshuang wanted to say something, but Su Chen stopped her. Seeing this, Ye Ningshuang hesitated for a moment and then said nothing.
Su Chen looked at Mu Xingyun, a smirk playing on his lips, "A life-or-death duel, are you sure?"
Mu Xingyun said coldly, "Are you kidding me?"
Su Chen smiled and said, "Okay, I promise you."
"Holy crap, he actually agreed!"
"This kid is probably doomed."
"That's not necessarily true. Look how calm he is; he clearly has the ability."
"That's true, let's wait and see."
An uproar erupted in the audience.
Mu Xingyun sneered, "You've got guts, come with me to the Life and Death Platform!"
The Azure Mist Immortal Sect forbids its disciples from killing each other, as the consequences are severe. However, if there is an irreconcilable feud between the two sides, they can go to the Life and Death Platform Arena for a final showdown. Killing someone there will not be punished.
Ye Ningshuang panicked and quickly transmitted her voice to Su Chen, saying, "No! You can't agree to him!"
Su Chen replied, "Why?"
Ye Ningshuang explained, "Because he possesses the Immortal Venerable Fifth Stage realm or even higher, his strength is unfathomable!"
Su Chen calmly replied, "It's alright."
Ye Ningshuang said anxiously, "Even if you can beat him, you can't kill him, not even on the Life and Death Platform!"
Su Chen raised an eyebrow.
Ye Ningshuang said, "Because he is the disciple of Gu Changfeng of the Azure Mist Immortal Sect! Elder Gu will not allow you to kill him."
Su Chen suddenly realized, so he had a powerful backer. That makes sense; it's impossible for a brainless and extremely arrogant young man like him not to have a powerful backer.
But so what if Mu Xingyun has powerful backers?
Su Chen fears no one less than those with powerful backers. If his backer dares to disobey, Su Chen wouldn't hesitate to eliminate that backer as well.
Su Chen gestured for Ye Ningshuang to stop talking.
Ye Ningshuang said anxiously, "Why won't you listen to me?"
Su Chen replied, "I know what I'm doing."
Ye Ningshuang opened her mouth, but finally sighed softly, "Whatever."
Su Chen smiled slightly, then looked at Mu Xingyun, "Lead the way."
Mu Xingyun said grimly, "I'll make you regret agreeing."
Su Chen said impatiently, "You talk too much nonsense."
"Snort!"
Mu Xingyun snorted coldly and turned to leave.
Su Chen followed with Ye Ningshuang.
Everyone in the room exchanged glances, then without further hesitation, they quickly followed.
