Chapter 904 - Awkward

Rean shrugged his shoulders. He didn't really mind the fact that Ophele made him wait. "That's my question, isn't it? You're the daughter of the Soul Rulers Organization's headmaster. Why would you come to this human continent to be a teacher for the human cultivators?"

"That's none of your business. If that's all you have to ask, you can leave now." Ophele didn't make it any easy for Rean either.

Rean scratched the back of his head and simply nodded. If her arrival had nothing to do with him, then so be it. However, just as Rean was about to turn around to leave, Qia held his arm, shouting, "You aren't going anywhere." Right after, she looked at Ophele and said, "And you too! What bullshit is that? You can fool this idiot here since he isn't very good at these matters. Unfortunately for you, it's all too clear in my eyes. Don't you think I can't see the change in your eyes when you saw Rean entering the room? Even if the reason you came here isn't related to Rean, you definitely have something for him."

"And...who are you?" Ophele asked in response as she narrowed her eyes. She wasn't used to having humans talking back at her, so this was a first.

"I'm Rean's wife!" Qia said those words loud and clear.

Naturally, that also had an effect on Ophele. However, she quickly got ahold of her emotions before saying, "Is that so? Well, good for you, girl. Now, leave this place."

*Pah!*

Suddenly, the sound of a slap echoed in the room. Qia couldn't hold herself back and hit Ophele straight away.

Ophele, naturally, wouldn't take that down and tried to get back at Qia. Unfortunately, Qia's cultivation was higher even though they had similar ages. In the end, one couldn't underestimate Roan's training schedule and Sunkan's better cultivation techniques. 

*Bam, bam, bam!*

In just a few exchanges, Ophele was pressed into a corner. As for Rean, he noticed a death glare coming from Qia, obviously telling him that he should not intervene. 

The sounds of battle quickly caught the Zasfins' attention, and they headed straight into Ophele's room just to see Qia holding the girl against her will. "What are you doing?! Release Lady Ophele right now!" They knew very well who Ophele was, so they couldn't let anything happen to her.

Unfortunately for them, they were in the Freedom Sect's territory. The moment they tried to release their cultivations, they felt a Spiritual Energy pressure coming from somewhere. The Spiritual Pressure immediately pressed them against the ground, making it impossible for them to move. Obviously, the demon beasts were stationed there to make sure the agreement would still be in effect.

Well, Qia ignored all of that. Instead, she looked with an angry expression at Ophele, asking her, "How long are you going to pretend that there's nothing? Is that how a high and mighty Zasfin should act? The reaction you showed when I told you who I was proved everything. In the end, you're just a little girl who can't even muster the will to fight for what you want. Perhaps calling you a kid would be a lot more fitting."

Ophele looked away, trying to avoid Qia's gaze while she heard those words, stammering as she replied, "I don't know what you're talking about."

"You don't?" Qia found it even more irritating. "Alright then, how about I take your clothes off?"

Rean was taken aback. 'Why would she come up with such an idea out of nowhere?' Naturally, she asked for Qia's opinion. "Ahem... you have quite the weird taste, my wife. Should I take my leave first?"

"Who the hell has a weird taste?! Shut up and stay right there!" Qia exclaimed before she turned back to Ophele. "From what I know, Zasfins consider humans to be the same as other common animals. Even if they get naked in front of a human, they won't feel anything. For them, it's just like taking their clothes off in front of a cat or dog, nothing to be bothered about. Now then, I wonder if you think the same thing about Rean over there."

Ophele's expression was already ugly. But when she heard about letting Rean see her naked as well, she finally couldn't hold back anymore. "Stop! Don't do that!"

Qia playfully smiled in response. "Why? The Formation Masters who came into the room are being held down by the demon beasts. Even if they wanted to, they wouldn't be able to see anything. The only ones who can see you are just two animals, two humans. A high and mighty Zasfin shouldn't care about that at all."

"Alright! Alright! I admit! I had some feelings for him before! Is that what you wanted to hear?! There you go, then! Now, let me g-" Before Ophele could even finish her words, Qia loosened her grip as Ophele was finally free once again. When Ophele looked at Qia, the girl was already heading back to Rean's side.

Ophele didn't know what to say anymore. She admitted the only thing she didn't want to. That was true. She came to Freedom City because she hoped to see Rean again. She kept telling herself that all she wanted was to take revenge for what Rean did to her clan and the Soul Rulers Organization. Unfortunately, that was nothing but an illusion she created herself. Her feelings back then were already obvious, and she knew it. Even after what happened in the organization, she simply couldn't forget the white-haired boy who far surpassed her performance in both cultivation and formations.

Qia, on the other hand, had a lot to say. "Although I said all of that, I have no intention whatsoever to give my husband to anyone else. Of course, you're welcome to try. I just know I won't lose anyway. Still, if you don't want to create a demon in your heart, something that would hinder your cultivation for life, you better clear up your own feelings. I just helped you take the first step. By the way, I wouldn't take your clothes off even if you denied everything. Hahaha!"

Ophele felt like dying already. She simply couldn't look into Rean's eyes at the moment.. Well, Rean felt quite awkward with how the situation turned out as well.
