“What?! You want to leave with him?” An expression of shock appeared on Madam Yan’s face, followed by fury as she said, “Fei’Er, do you know what you’re saying?”

Beside her, Duke Yan also stared in surprise. It looked like his daughter wasn’t joking! But that Xiao Yun was only 16-years-old.

However, when Duke Yan looked over to Xiao Yun, he found that he was not so little anymore. Although Xiao Yun still had a slight air of tenderness about him, he was almost as tall as Duke Yan. At such an age, one could indeed marry in the Moonwind Kingdom, but this was simply too sudden. Since when had this boy stolen his daughter’s heart?

“Father, mother, I want to leave with Xiao Yun.” Yan Shi Fei pursed her lips as she spoke resolutely.

Madam Yan’s eyes glinted icily as she retorted, “Could you have fallen for this boy?”

Beside them, Yan Shi Yan could only stare at her big sister.

How can big sis like big brother Xiao Yun? Doesn’t that mean we’re rivals?

Yan Shi Yan shook her head, her thoughts swirling around her as she thought about the extremely complicated situation.

“That’s right,” Yan Shi Fei replied.

“How could you have fallen for him?” Madam Yan’s frown became deeper.

“Ai.” Duke Yan couldn’t help but give a heavy sigh.

“Why can’t I fall for him?” Yan Shi Fei’s tone was determined. “Back then, there were so many sons of noble families pursuing me, but after finding out that I was afflicted by a deadly poison, they cast me aside. After that, how many of them came to see me? Only Xiao Yun was willing to risk his own life to use his Martial Spirit to extract the poison for me.

“That poison is something that can cause normal people to instantly die, and yet Xiao Yun risked his life to see if he could extract it so that he could save me. For someone who values his bonds and justice so much, does he not deserve me falling for him? Who else, in this world, would do such a thing for me?” The young woman’s words sounded like thunder, her voice cracking with emotion.

These years, she had buried these things in her heart for far too long.

Duke Yan felt an ache within his heart. They had clearly seen the changes in Yan Shi Fei over the past 2 years.

The lively and cute girl had become silent and reticent, and stayed in her room all day, unwilling to meet anyone. This was because she had been disappointed and let down by all those around her, making her lose hope in people.

When they heard their daughter say this, Duke Yan and Madam Yan both felt an ache within their hearts.

“So big sister also likes big brother Xiao Yun.” By the side, Yan Shi Yan was still quite displeased, but after hearing her big sister say all that, her heart was moved and her unhappiness gradually disappeared.

Big sister has been much worse off than me!

“Even if that’s the case, how could Xiao Yun be good enough for you?”

Madam Yan’s expression was cold as she spoke, “Although he can save people, in the end, he’s just a low-tier cultivator, and doesn’t have much potential. Look at that young master Qiu – he’s already a disciple of an elder of the Heaven Origin Sect, and can casually take out a Grade 2 antidote pill. If you follow him, you’ll be admired by countless people, and can also enter the Heaven Origin Sect to become a peerless expert, entering the boundless Martial World.

“What sort of future could you have with Xiao Yun?”

Madam Yan’s words were extremely cold as she said, “Furthermore, the Fang family is acting against the Xiao family; if you follow Xiao Yun, what will happen to you?”

“Mother, how could you say such things?” Yan Shi Fei deeply frowned as she said, “I like Xiao Yun because he’s good to me; what does it have to do with his potential? And so what if other people have unlimited potential? Would they truly love me the same way?”

Madam Yan retorted, “True love? You silly girl, in future, you’ll find out that ‘true love’ is just a blissful fantasy of youth. If you have to live fearfully and without security, so what if you have ‘true love’? Listen to mother and marry that young master Qiu, and enter the Heaven Origin Sect with him.”

“Mother, why must you be like this?” Yan Shi Yan couldn’t watch on anymore as she pouted, “How do you know big brother Xiao Yun doesn’t have a future? He can even suppress big sister’s poison; he’s definitely not ordinary. It’s just that he hasn’t had enough time to grow.

“Plus, back then, big brother Xiao Yun was the genius of our Violet Cloud County. Even that Fang Hao would not be worthy to put on his shoes for him.”

The girl felt quite displeased when she saw her mother’s attitude.

“Shi Yan, you’re still little; don’t meddle in this,” Madam Yan chided.

“Mother, I’m not little anymore,” Yan Shi Yan said, deeply frowning as she stuck out her chest, as if she was trying to prove that she wasn’t little anymore.

However, Madam Yan ignored her.

“Xiao Yun, our Yan family is grateful to you for healing Fei’Er over the years. However, if you want to marry our Fei’Er because of that, that’s just wishful thinking; I definitely won’t give Fei’Er to you. Your Xiao family stands on shaky ground, and yet you have time to come out and flirt? It’s better if you start planning an escape for yourself, and don’t burden our Fei’Er,” Madam Yan said icily.

“Haha, so in the end, it’s because Madam Yan thinks that I, Xiao Yun, am useless? Because I’m trash?” Xiao Yun smiled self-mockingly.

“You can put it that way,” Madam Yan replied.

“Mother!” Yan Shi Fei frowned, feeling an ache in her heart as she said, “How can you say that about Xiao Yun?”

Xiao Yun waved his hand, signalling Yan Shi Fei not to say any more as he replied, “Madam Yan, don’t’ worry, if Shi Fei comes with me, I guarantee you that she won’t suffer. Furthermore, my Xiao family will not be destroyed, and I will defeat Fang Hao in one month at the Martial Competition.”

“You think you can defeat Fang Hao?” A look of condescension appeared on Madam Yan’s face. Duke Yan had a look of curiosity on his face, wondering where this youth’s confidence was coming from.

“I heard that he broke through 2 months ago. Perhaps…” Duke Yan sent out his senses to Xiao Yun, wanting to know his cultivation. After feeling the youth’s aura, his eyebrows jumped as he thought, “This aura – he seems to have stepped into the Innate realm.”

Duke Yan’s expression became a bit strange as he thought, “Could it be that this boy’s talent has returned?”

“That’s right, I’ll defeat Fang Hao, and I’ll also completely cure big sister Shi Fei’s poison,” Xiao Yun said resolutely.

“Shi Fei, let’s go.” Xiao Yun did not waste any words as he held Yan Shi Fei’s hand, and turned to leave.

“Father, mother, even if I die, I won’t marry that Qiu Yu Chen,” Yan Shi Fei said to her parents as she turned and left.

“Fei’Er, stop immediately,” Madam Yan yelled.

Yan Shi Fei did not even look back as she left with the youth. She was worried that if she gave in and stayed, she would no longer be able to pursue her own happiness. Her fate would be in her parents’ hands. However, she did not want to marry someone who she did not love, so she chose to temporarily leave.

“Wife, there’s no need to be angry,” Duke Yan said as he waved his hand.

Madam Yan replied, “Why? Could it be that you want to allow her to be with that trash, Xiao Yun? You should know that the Fang family is going to act against the Xiao family. After Xiao Yun dies, what is Fei’Er supposed to do?” Madam Yan’s face was filled with worry.

“What use would it be if we stopped Fei’Er?” Duke Yan slightly frowned as he spoke, “What if she does the unthinkable and takes her own life? Since she likes him, just let her go, and hope that she won’t regret her decision in future.”

“Ai.” Madam Yan sighed, “Why would that girl like that boy Xiao Yun?”

“What’s so bad about big brother Xiao Yun?” Yan Shi Yan muttered.

When she saw how strangely her daughter was acting, Madam Yan frowned and said, “What’s been going on with you today? Shi Yan, you’re not to go see that Xiao Yun in future.”

Yan Shi Yan pouted as she said, “I don’t want to listen to you. I’m leaving. I want to see if Xiao Yun really took big sis away.” After saying this, the girl ran out of the courtyard and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

“See, big brother Rong, both of these girls have been spoilt by you.” Madam Yan was so furious that her face almost became green.

“Wasn’t it because you spoilt them?” Duke Yan calmly smiled as he looked into the distance, a wistful look on his face, “If that boy truly stepped into the Innate realm, perhaps he really might have a future!” He couldn’t help but feel excited when he remembered the boy’s talent from back then.

As Xiao Yun walked away with Yan Shi Fei, 2 youths on a tall tower within the Yan family’s residence were currently looking over.

“Haha, big bro Qiu, looks like Yan Shi Fei refused to marry you because she likes that trash Xiao Yun!” An evil smile appeared on Fang Hao’s face as he looked at the tall youth next to him dressed in embroidered clothing.

“Xiao Yun?” Qiu Yu Chen raised his eyebrows as he coldly laughed, “How could the woman I’ve set my heart on be coveted by him? I’ll make him regret this.” Qiu Yu Chen had a stately appearance and looked handsome and smart. His star-like eyes coldly gazed at the youth exiting the courtyard, a vicious look appearing within them which gave him a demon-like air.

“Naturally, naturally. As a genius among people, how could that trash compare to big bro Qiu?” When he saw the vicious look on Qiu Yu Chen’s face, Fang Hao smiled as he said, “However, he’s evidently won that beauty’s heart – I wonder what big bro Qiu’s going to do about this?”

Killing intent shone in Qiu Yu Chen’s eyes as he said, “We’ll follow your plan. I’ll let him know how foolish it is to try to take my woman away. As for Yan Shi Fei that bitch, I’ll make her wish she was dead for turning me down.”

“Haha, since big bro Qiu has said this, everything can be arranged for!” Fang Hao laughed as his eyes narrowed, a satisfied look appearing on his face.

“Xiao family, I’ll see how you fight with me!”

Xiao Yun was currently bringing Yan Shi Fei to the Xiao family’s residence. When she saw the large doors of the Yan family’s residence, Yan Shi Fei felt a trace of sadness within her heart – she never thought that the situation would turn out like this.

“Do you regret leaving the Yan family?” Xiao Yun asked, knowing that the young woman felt quite uncomfortable.

“Since I’ve made this decision, I won’t regret it.” Yan Shi Fei looked over at Xiao Yun with an expression of determination. When she made her decision, she had made all preparations, and would not regret her decision, no matter what.

“Don’t worry, I’ll take care of any problems,” Xiao Yun said. “When that time comes, your parents will change the way they see me. I, Xiao Yun, will not be trash for my whole life. Nor will I allow my woman to suffer.”

He knew that Yan Shi Fei felt great pressure in leaving the Yan family, so he had to give her hope to bear with this.

“I believe in you.” Yan Shi Fei’s beautiful eyes blinked, her heart feeling moved. Just this sentiment from the youth was enough.

The 2 people gazed at each other as their affection for each other grew stronger, holding each other’s hand tighter.
