It appeared to be a very long night. When this lavish Kunlun Heir’s banquet was over, a swirl of pink transfigured the night sky as the sun was about to rise above the horizon. There was a chill in the air, condensing droplets on the grass on both sides of the road.
Zhang Ruochen walked towards Shentai City with Huang Yanchen following behind him.
Both of them stayed silent, worrying about different things.
For Zhang Ruochen, he felt guilty and stressed each time when he lied to another person, especially when this person was his fiancée.
Before that, Zhang Ruochen thought it was better for her not to know the fact that he was still alive because he didn’t want to put her in a dilemma.


Besides, Zhang Ruochen didn’t have enough confidence to love another woman before he could solve his problem with Chi Yao. He was afraid that he would hurt her and fail to give her a future.
However, what happened during the Kunlun Heir’s banquet had changed his mind.
Perhaps he was so selfish that he imposed his will on Huang Yanchen.
Was this really good for her?
For example, he helped her to become the Heiress of East Region Saint Mansions, which was indeed a good thing for Huang Yanchen. However, on the other hand, she had to undergo a great amount of stress and was rejected by other direct descendants of the Chen Family.
If she were not strong enough, she would probably have an emotional breakdown by now.
However, wouldn’t the Zhang Ruochen’s death be another negative impact on her mind?
You couldn’t expect her to be perfect and strong. After all, she was only a woman who needed love and care.
Sometimes, you should think about what she needs from her perspective.
Because even the strongest man occasionally failed to escape from his own predicament.


In front of them, Han Xue used her bodily movement and walked very fast as if she was flying above the ground.

Swoosh!

Her petite body turned into a white shadow and quickly approached Zhang Ruochen. She said joyfully with her beautiful eyes wide open.
Master, you’re so cool. Your sword techniques must have reached the highest level. All the Young Genius in Kunlun’s Field combined won’t compete with you!

The little girl looked excited. She stared at Zhang Ruochen with admiration. Her slender arms wrapped around Zhang Ruochen’s waist, desperately showing her identity to the world that she was the only disciple of Zhang Ruochen.
Han Xue waited at the foot of Scroll Mountain and paid close attention to the fights between Zhang Ruochen and masters from the Demonic Sect. His aura of invincibility had deeply attracted her.
The fight between Zhang Ruochen and the Third Prince of the Immortal Vampires, in particular, impressed her tremendously.
Neither the nine Heirs of Kunlun’s Field nor 108 young kings were not able to compete with her Master.
Han Xue was a beautiful young girl with a height of 130 centimeters. Although she grew bigger, Huang Yanchen recognized her at once.
When Huang Yanchen heard that Han Xue addressed Lin Yue as her ‘Master’, even though she was mentally prepared, she still felt heartbroken and was unable to breathe as if she was struck by lightning.
Han Xue noticed something, but when she saw Huang Yanchen who stood behind Zhang Ruochen, she was startled because she knew she had made a big mistake.


She knew, Master kept his secret from Sister Yanchen, because he didn’t want her to know he was still alive.
But now, she called him ‘Master’ in front of Sister Yanchen, did she reveal Master’s identity?

Master…I…didn’t see…
Han Xue lowered her head, feeling deep remorse.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t panic. He didn’t want to conceal it or blame Han Xue.
The secret would eventually be uncovered, and he needed to face it.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t turn around to see Huang Yanchen. Instead, he smiled, held Han Xue’s hand and walked towards Shentai City. He asked,
Why didn’t you go to Kunlun Heir’s banquet since you have finished your training? Your cultivation has reached the Third Change in the Fish-Dragon Realm, and you will have a chance to win a Talent Seat.

Han Xue secretly glanced at Huang Yanchen before shaking her head. She replied,
I’m still young, if I could secure a Talent Seat, I would certainly attract too much attention. In this case, someone will probe into my past, and I can’t take the risk of exposing you.

Zhang Ruochen was slightly surprised and said,
You are such a little girl with deep thoughts. You aren’t acting like a girl of ten years old. I can’t imagine your wisdom and calculation when you grow up. I think the experience do have some effects on you.

Hearing Master’s praise, Han Xue was happy.
She quietly looked back at Sister Yanchen who following behind. Sister Yanchen was still as beautiful and cold as usual, however, she looked like a walking dead, with no expression on her face, only tears kept running down her cheeks.



I indeed made a mistake…

Han Xue looked at Sister Yanchen’s crying face and bit her lips. She felt sorry for her.
Monster Ape and Greedy Rabbit came back along with Han Xue, and they followed closely behind.
These two insensitive animals didn’t notice the unusual atmosphere at all. Instead, they kept talking about the Holy Flame Kirin meat at Kunlun Heir’s banquet while drooling.
After a short while, they arrived at the mansion of Sword Saint Xuanji.
Zhang Ruochen, with his hands behind his back, ordered,
Han Xue, you can play with Monster Ape and Greedy Rabbit. I’ll examine the results of your cultivation and experience later.

After they left, Zhang Ruochen and Huang Yanchen walked towards the lotus pond located at the center of the mansion.
The sun was about to rise. Steam mist rose from the lotus pond, looking fumy and filmy.
Zhang Ruochen stopped. He looked at the pond, trying to calm himself down, and then he whispered.
Did you already knew? As you might guess, Zhang Ruochen didn’t die.

Because of arrays that were allocated in the mansion, Zhang Ruochen didn’t need to worry if other Saints were spying at them.


Huang Yanchen stood next to the pond. Her body looked slim and long, and her waist-length blue hair danced with the breeze, emitting light fragrance.
Her eyes were watery. She unblinkingly looked at this young man, feeling he was strange and familiar at the same time.
With the Holy Qi flowing above Zhang Ruochen’s body, his shape, face and temperament kept changing.
Finally, he turned into Zhang Ruoche, with exactly the same warm temperament and handsome face.
Huang Yanchen still stood up straight, but her body kept shivering. Tears kept streaming down her cheeks and wetted the ground in front of her.

Why…why…
Huang Yanchen’s voice quivered.
Zhang Ruochen said,
When I was captured, Master saved me and helped me fake death to escape.


Why,,,I don’t know why…

Huang Yanchen got emotional. She began to feel a sharp pain in her chest, and this pain got more and more severe until she couldn’t bear it anymore and collapsed on the ground. She muttered,
You didn’t die…but why didn’t you tell me? Why did you lie to me, why did you pretend you…never knew me. You never loved me, didn’t you?

Even though Zhang Ruochen was a strong and tough man, his eyes became watery when he saw her pain.
He knew her pain had accumulated in her heart for a long time, and she didn’t release them until now.
Zhang Ruochen held Huang Yanchen up. He tightly held her with one arm around her tiny waist and one arm tied behind her upper back to give her enough security.
After a while, Huang Yanchen calmed down.
Zhang Ruochen said,
I didn’t mean to lie to you. It was just, after a lot of thinking, I wasn’t sure if I should tell you.

Huang Yanchen sipped her lips, her beautiful blue eyes fixed on him, and she said,
Was that hard to tell me? I’m your fiancée, we almost got married. Whatever the difficulties you faced, I could understand you.


You just need to tell me that you’re alive and I can give up everything I have to be with you, even if that means to conceal our identity or be exiled. However, you never did.

Zhang Ruochen took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
Huang Yanchen’s eyes were filled with pain. She struggled for a while before asking.
It’s because Xing Ling, isn’t it? She is Lady Saint of Demonic Sect, right?


She knew you didn’t die and knew you’re Zhang Ruochen. That’s why, on Scroll Mountain, you’d rather hurt yourself than hurt her. She injured deadly swordsman from Demonic Sect for you. The relationship between you two must be close, at least…closer than us…

When saying those words, Huang Yanchen gripped her hands, staring blankly.
Of course, it was happy to meet her fiancé again. However, she felt bitter as if she was already abandoned by her lover.
Women were indeed sensitive creatures.
Before Zhang Ruochen could explain, Huang Yanchen added,
After the news of your death was brought back to East Region Saint City, she disappeared and never showed up in Saint Academy. Did you inform her in the first moment?

Zhang Ruochen didn’t know he should cry or laugh, he replied,
Do you think the reason why I didn’t tell you was because I wanted to stay with Senior Sister Apprentice Duanmu? If that is the case, instead of staying in Yin and Yang Sect, I should join Demonic Sect and become the son-in-law of the Mu Family.
