From the Heavens Descended an Immortal Sister

In his life, wherever he had been, he had always been idolized and admired by everyone. When had he ever experienced such a loss of face as he did today?

With just one sentence from Mu Huanqing, he was unable to do anything to a person who had insulted his school. This made him feel an unbearable humiliation!

But now he didn't have the strength to stand up to Mu Huanqing. He knew very well that if he dared to touch Fang Ren Ran'er now, Mu Huanqing would have no hesitation in smashing him into the ground on the spot.

This was also what he found most insulting!

Who on Earth didn't know that Mu Huanqing and he, Song Mobei, were meant to be lovers? However, who could have imagined that the current scene would be one where Mu Huanqing would speak harshly for the sake of a man who was opposing him?

From now on, how would the world talk about him?

"Lady Xuan is being too bullying out there," Song Mobei said coldly. "Let me ask, if today someone else insulted your entire family, as the eldest daughter of the family, what would you do?"

Mu Huanqing answered casually, "Naturally, I would make them pay the price."

"Then let me ask again, Lady Xuan, what reason do you have now to stop me from making someone who has insulted my school pay the price?" Song Mobei said.

"He has not insulted your school," Mu Huanqing said indifferently. "He simply stated a fact that you are unwilling to accept, making you feel insulted. As far as I know, on the day Young Master Fang and Princess Fulan agreed to the duel, he said that he could be Princess Fulan's teacher in the Sword Dao, and now it seems that what he asserted was indeed the truth.

Furthermore, before the duel began, Young Master Fang did say that General Song's Sword Dao was mediocre at best. I did not hear Young Master Fang insult the Tiandao Sword Sect, nor did he say that the entire Tiandao Sword Sect were "frogs at the bottom of a well." The term "frogs at the bottom of a well" was something that you, General Song, added yourself."

Having said that, Mu Huanqing cleared a path between Fang Ren Ran'er and Song Mobei and continued, "Lastly, if General Song truly believes that his Sword Dao is superior to Young Master Fang's, he can certainly spar on the spot.

However, I hope General Song will not use the same tactics as Princess Fulan, swapping concepts and turning 'spar in Sword Dao' into 'spar in Realm.' Princess Fulan has already taken full advantage of the duel, and upon losing, she slandered the other's Sword Dao as a True Qi-propelled Cultivation Technique. Everyone here has seen all this."

As soon as Mu Huanqing's words fell, the whole scene began to buzz with noise.

"Does even Lady Xuan think that Young Master Fang's Sword Dao is superior to Brother Song's?"

"Are you blind? All of Young Master Fang's Cultivation Techniques just now were propelled by True Qi, which means that the Sword Intent he displayed at the beginning was genuine, not any hidden True Qi-propelled technique; it was a solid display of Sword Intent!"

"That Sword Intent even formed a tornado. Currently, there is not a single Practitioner in the Sword Dao who can achieve that level purely through swordsmanship alone. Honestly, I feel that Young Master Fang's Sword Dao is indeed superior to Brother Song's."

"Oh come on, you guys were supporting Brother Song just a moment ago, and now you're supporting this side. You obviously don't understand anything; you're just a bunch of fools who believe whatever you hear."

...

Song Mobei's eyes twitched again, and he looked at Fang Ren Ran'er across from him with a cold gaze, saying, "Is Lady Xuan disregarding what Family Head Bai just said? This place is an Alchemists' competition ground, and all duels are forbidden."

Having said that, Song Mobei turned around with the semi-conscious Xia Fu Lan and walked towards the group of disciples from the Tiandao Sword Sect.

Mu Huanqing did not say anything more about this topic. She did not like talking to Song Mobei. Glancing back at Fang Ren, Mu Huanqing put on an indifferent expression and said, "Should Young Master Fang encounter personal grievances in the future, feel free to seek me out. The Human Clan should be united in our stand against the Void.

We must not let a past grudge, whose outcome has already been decided, ruin the greater unity of our people."

The first part of her speech was directed at Fang Ren, while the last sentence was addressed to everyone from the Tiandao Sword Sect.

Fang Ren withdrew his True Qi and smiled faintly, "I thank Lady Xuan for your rescue. Otherwise, my arm might have truly been crippled."

Mu Huanqing paid him little attention, continuing to assume an air of indifference as she walked toward the specially arranged seats.

Watching her "indifferent" back, Fang Ren suddenly felt the urge to laugh. His wife was really putting on a good act, but her eagerness to protect him this time made him wonder what Bai Chaojin would do next.

Once Mu Huanqing returned to the special seats, Mu Qing Mountain, sitting not far from her, shook his head with a wry smile, again and again.

Today, he finally recognized the truth that his granddaughter would, it seemed, risk her life to be with this young man from the Fang Family.

The strength that the young man from the Fang Family displayed today truly shocked him beyond words. Initially, when he set the seven-year challenge to surpass Song Mobei, it was only meant to appease his granddaughter's emotions.

He hadn't expected that Fang Ren would take it so seriously. It hadn't been three months since his last visit to Yangming City, yet Fang Ren's strength had already overwhelmed that of Xia Fu Lan, who was three years his senior, which left him utterly astonished.

In the history of Human Cultivation, there had never been someone whose Alchemy and Cultivation Level both reached such a rarely seen height. This Fang Ren, no matter how one looked at it, was the greatest force in the Human Clan's fight against the Void in the future.

She would surpass Mu Huanqing, and by a great margin.

However, with today's battle, Mu Qing Mountain felt much more relieved because he no longer had to worry about his granddaughter being forced into marriage. The Central Area would reconsider the marriage alliance between Mu Huanqing and Song Mobei because of today's battle.

The current Fang Ren is indeed the most eligible suitor for the Lady of Mysteria.

Shang Han, seated at the very back of the spectator stands, felt indescribable joy and excitement at this sight. At this moment, everything that was happening seemed to be proving his previous decision right.

Looking at Fang Ren in the center of the arena, his senses suddenly became somewhat dizzy and unreal, as he still could hardly believe that such a thing was possible in the world.

Ran'er was too strong, far surpassing his understanding of him from the past. He always thought that Ran'er was only suited to be an Alchemist, best living a low-key, peaceful life, away from trouble and conflict.

But now, he suddenly felt that all the words he had said to Fang Ren were nonsense. Keeping away from conflicts did not belong to someone with exceptional innate talent.

After today, there would not be a single person in the world with any reason to oppose the marriage between Fang Ren and Mu Huanqing.

Of course, Shang Han knew nothing about Indra Sky.
