Gunaara's almond-shaped eyes widened in surprise upon seeing Xiang Xueer, and then a smile appeared on her lips. Suddenly unsure of what to do, she quickly tugged at her skirt and said, "W-what are you doing here? How did you come?"
"Ah!" Xiang Xueer struggled for a moment before remembering that she was still wearing the male outfit from Arena. She cleared her throat and said, "Ahem, it's nothing much. I just heard that you were having a wedding today, so I wanted to come and take a look!"
Upon hearing Xiang Xueer's words, Gunaara's expression darkened instantly, and with a tone of complaint, she asked, "Your skills are clearly above Li Yunyang, how did you end up losing to him?"
"Ah? Well..." Xiang Xueer found herself unable to come up with an excuse and stammered, "It's all my fault. I was careless and didn't expect it to turn out this way. So today, I've decided to come see you one last time. I'll leave right away!"
As soon as Xiang Xueer finished speaking, she quickly turned to leave. However, after taking a few steps, she felt someone tugging at her sleeve from behind. Turning around, she was surprised to see Gunaara gripping her tightly: "Y-you can't go! I don't want to marry him; take me away!"
Xiang Xueer nearly spat out blood in shock. What was going on? Did this woman have feelings for me? Although I am adored by many handsome men and admired by everyone from the elderly to toddlers, I am still a woman! She quickly shook her head in panic: "No way, no way! That's not happening!"
"No way? Why not? Don't you like me?" Gunaara looked at Xiang Xueer with confusion. Her gaze followed along Xiang Xueer's arm and noticed that she was still tightly holding onto the Fuxi Qin. With a puzzled expression, she asked, "Why are you holding onto my guqin?"
"Eh?" Xiang Xueer swallowed hard and forced a smile: "Of course I like it! Otherwise, why would I be playing in Arena? I don't want you to marry that Blackie, so I came for one last look and to keep a little memento!"
What a ridiculous excuse! Just as Xiang Xueer was thinking of how to escape, the woman actually believed her and leaned in happily: "Oh, is that so? Since the wedding hasn't started yet, take me away!"
"Ah? Take you away? To where?" Xiang Xueer pouted in disbelief. Gunaara wrapped her arms around her: "Anywhere is fine as long as I'm with you!"
After saying this, Gunaara looked up at Xiang Xueer with affectionate eyes: "I haven't asked for your name yet."
"Ah, Xiang...," Xiang Xueer blurted out but then realized it sounded like a woman's name. She quickly corrected herself: "I’m called Chu Liuxiang, nicknamed 'Xiang Shuai' by the Lakers."
"So it's Young Master Chu!” Gunaara replied with a charming smile. At that moment, Xiang Xueer almost choked; she felt guilty for borrowing the name of Chu Liuxiang.
God, ever since I came here to Peach Blossom Luck, it hasn't stopped. Just said it was suitable for all ages, and now they've added something that appeals to both men and women. What should I do? What should I do? I just want Fuxi Qin and don't want any additional gifts, especially if the gift is a beautiful woman; a handsome guy would be fine too!
Over here, Xiang Xueer and Li Yunyang have caused such a Farce, while on the other side, beneath the Demon Prison Tower of Sky Beyond Mountain, Lan Ran Qingtian and Gu Liu Ma finally awaited the fifth member of the Saint Ten: Sikong Xueyi.
Not all experts among the Saint Ten are known to everyone, and this Sikong Xueyi looks quite young, at most around thirty years old, and she is a woman, which surprised both of them greatly.
"Hehehe!" Seeing their expressions, Sikong Xueyi immediately laughed: "You men are so surprised just because I'm a woman?"
Gu Liu Ma quickly shook his head in embarrassment: "Not at all! I've only heard that the fifth member, Sikong Xueyi, is incredibly formidable, capable of destroying a city by herself. Meeting you in person today is truly astonishing!"
"A city?" Upon hearing this, Lan Ran Qingtian was deeply impressed and repeatedly bowed respectfully towards her: "Senior, you are indeed impressive. I didn't expect such hidden talents among the Saint Ten."
"Not just that!" Gu Liu Ma said seriously as he kept sizing up Sikong Xueyi: "I've heard from those around me that if it weren't for you being a woman, with your true strength, you could easily rank among the top three of the Saint Ten!"
Indeed, it was an era of male superiority and female inferiority; even if a woman had strength, she would still be marginalized by men. Lan Ran Qingtian suddenly thought of Xiang Xueer, wondering what she might be doing right now. Have Brother Li and the others found her?
"Hehe! May I ask your name, young man?" After sizing up Qingtian, Sikong Xueyi nodded and smiled: "Ah, I see. Everyone is raving about you. The tenth member of the Saint Ten, Lan Ran Qingtian, not only has remarkable exorcism abilities but is also charming and dashing. Seeing you today, you really are young—truly the new generation surpassing the old!"
While several people were flattering each other, they heard a deep voice coming from across: "Haha, who would have thought we arrived late! Everyone has already started chatting!"
This voice sounded familiar. Lan Ran Qingtian immediately smiled and turned to look: "Father, you finally arrived."
A burly middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes wore a deep Light Blue Long Robe along with military attire. He donned the same blue Holy Ten Cloak. His muscular chest seemed almost ready to burst through his clothing, indicating that his physical training had reached an extraordinary level. The family crest featuring intertwined dragon and tiger heads on his shoulder was exceptionally eye-catching.
As soon as he saw Qingtian, a kind smile appeared on his face: "It's you, Qingtian. I recognized your handwriting immediately, so I rushed over overnight. Uncle Ouyang also came along!"
As he spoke, Ouyang Zhentian slowly emerged behind him, carrying a massive Golden Silk Great Ring Blade on his back. The most striking feature was the family crest with an inner five-pointed star and an outer circle. After glancing at the Demon Prison Tower, their expressions turned serious. He politely nodded at the few people around: "The second place, Gu Liu Ma; the fifth place, Sikong Xueyi; and the tenth place, Lan Ran Qingtian."
"Five out of ten have arrived! In just three or four days, half of the people have gathered!" Azure Wind Sword One said. A few people nodded in greeting, and Qingtian shook his head: "It's six. Senior Feng Qingyang asked us to wait here for him; he went after the Demon Lord!"
"Hmph!" Ouyang Zhentian scoffed disdainfully and snorted: "This Feng Qingyang actually left us waiting here. Just because he's in first place doesn't mean we have to listen to him."
"Alright, Ouyang Brother!" Azure Wind Sword One patted his shoulder: "Since that's the case, we might as well wait. He might return soon!"
Gu Liu Ma laughed at his complaints: "That’s uncertain; who knows when he’ll come back? We can’t just keep waiting here and waste time!"
Among the top-ranked Saint Ten, these few were not from the same family and had significant tasks. They held themselves in high regard and were used to acting independently, never listening to others' orders, which naturally led to constant complaints.
Lan Ran Qingtian was younger, and since his father was also complaining, he dared not say much. Sikong Xueyi sat down on a nearby patch of ground to meditate, completely ignoring the complaints of these three.
After a while, the three men finally erupted: "No way! I can't stay here any longer. The Demon Lord has already come out of the Demon Prison Tower; how can I waste time here? I want to act on my own!"
"Exactly! Ouyang Brother makes a good point!" Gu Liu Ma immediately echoed: "If everyone had been here from the start, the Demon Lord would never have escaped from the Demon Prison Tower."
"Since both of you feel that way, let's split up!" In an instant, things took this turn. Lan Ran Qingtian hurriedly stepped forward to stop them: "Wait! If we all leave and Senior Feng comes back to find no one here, what will we do?"
