The Sword God of the Universe

As the Great Sect Master finished speaking, Jing Yan couldn’t help but feel a bit nervous.

In his heart, Jing Yan certainly hoped the Saintess Bai Xue was the Bai Xue City Lord he knew.

But if Saintess Bai Xue was indeed the Bai Xue City Lord, how could he take her away next? The Rainbow Gown Divine Sect was a Second Grade Force within the Tianxia Divine Domain, and its sect was bound to have numerous array formation restrictions, definitely including a Sect Suppressing Holy Artifact. Jing Yan didn’t dare to say he was completely sure of taking her away.

Jing Yan took a deep breath and quietly stayed seated, waiting.

"I’ve heard that Saintess Bai Xue’s beauty is unmatched, even surpassing that of the Sangqing Saintess. Today I can finally see her for myself," Mu Bing said excitedly.

"How does being more beautiful matter, isn’t she still going to marry Young Master Fang Jie of the Fang Family?" Zhuo Liusu replied, somewhat displeased. As a highly proud woman, she was definitely uncomfortable hearing others discuss a woman more beautiful than herself.

"Both of you, talk less. Mr. Jing might know Saintess Bai Xue," Jiao Zhan gently rebuked.

"Mr. Jing knows Saintess Bai Xue?" Mu Bing was taken aback.

"We can’t be sure yet, we must wait until Saintess Bai Xue comes out," Jing Yan said, his eyes fixed in the direction of the high platform.

After exchanging glances, Mu Bing and Zhuo Liusu fell silent.

Meanwhile, around the entire square, the buzz of conversation rose and fell. Those present might have all heard about Saintess Bai Xue, but few may have seen her in person; their discussions centered on just how beautiful Saintess Bai Xue really was.

Thirty minutes later, an elder of the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect, accompanied by a lithe woman in a white robe, stepped onto the high platform.

The woman in the white robe wore a veil, making it impossible to see her face.

With a thought, Jing Yan activated his Divine Thought.

Just moments later.

"Bai Xue?" Jing Yan sensed a familiar energy, precisely the energy of Bai Xue City Lord.

"It really is Bai Xue City Lord!"

"Bai Xue City Lord is still alive!" Jing Yan’s body trembled slightly; his emotions erupted like a volcano.

Although he had been mentally prepared, confirming now that Saintess Bai Xue was Bai Xue City Lord, Jing Yan could still hardly contain his excitement.

"Take off the veil," Young Master Fang Jie commanded, his eyes fixed on Bai Xue.

Bai Xue didn’t move.

"Didn’t you hear me?" Fang Jie’s gaze suddenly turned sharp.

"No need to be angry, Young Master Fang. Saintess Bai Xue is just being shy," the Great Sect Master said with a laugh.

With a wave of her hand, the veil on Bai Xue’s face flew off, unveiling a stunning visage.

As Bai Xue’s veil was removed, the entire audience gasped, deeply stunned.

Saintess Bai Xue’s appearance lived up to her reputation.

"Hmm, Saintess Bai Xue, from today onwards, you are my woman," Fang Jie said with a sinister smile on his ugly face.

"Being a Young Master, Saintess Bai Xue is my disciple. When she marries you, you must treat her well," the Third Sect Master sighed softly, shaking his head before addressing Young Master Fang.

"You say it wrong, Third Sect Master. As my woman, naturally, I will treat her well. You need not worry," Fang Jie said with a laugh, his arrogant demeanor evident.

"Alright, that’s all for now! I still need to travel with Saintess Bai Xue, so I won’t stay any longer. Third Sect Master, we’ll meet again later!" Fang Jie bowed his hands and bid farewell to the three Sect Masters of the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect.

"Bai Xue... has become much thinner!"

"Why is there no Qi Fluctuation in her body?" Jing Yan’s thoughts were in turmoil.

He slowly stood up.

"Young Master Fang, you’re really impatient. Saintess Bai Xue’s Cultivation is restrained and needs me to release it, so please wait for a moment." The Great Sect Master said, and waved his hand again, sending out a swirl of mysterious energy that lightly brushed over the body of Saintess Bai Xue.

The restriction was released, and the Primordial Energy inside the White Snow Mist Vortex slowly began to flow.

With the flow of Primordial Energy, Bai Xue’s complexion began to look slightly rosier.

"Young Master Fang, I will not marry you, nor will I go with you," Bai Xue bit her lip, looking at Fang Jie.

"What did you say?" Fang Jie’s expression darkened.

"Great Sect Master, what does the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect mean by this? Are you mocking me?" Fang Jie glared fiercely at the Great Sect Master and the others.

"Young Master Fang, please don’t misunderstand, our Rainbow Gown Divine Sect fully agrees to the marriage of Saintess Bai Xue to you," the Great Sect Master hurriedly explained.

"Oh, that’s good! Saintess Bai Xue, since your sect has no objections, there’s no need for you to struggle. You have no right to refuse," Fang Jie said with a sinister smile to Bai Xue.

"Saintess Bai Xue, it’s your fortune to be able to marry Young Master Fang. How can you still say such things at this time and disregard the position of the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect?" The Sangqing Saintess chided from the side. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

"Sangqing Saintess, since you say so, why don’t you marry Young Master Fang in my place?" Bai Xue turned to look at Sang Qing.

At this moment, Bai Xue’s Primordial Energy had returned to normal, and she was quietly circulating it.

She would absolutely not marry Fang Jie, even if it meant death. If it weren’t for the persistent belief in her heart, she might have committed suicide after her Primordial Energy was restrained. The thought of returning to Heavenly Origin Continent to avenge Jing Yan constantly circled in her mind, which kept her going until today.

Now, about to be taken away by Fang Jie, she could no longer delay. Falling into Fang Jie’s hands, she might not even be able to choose death. Therefore, she secretly circulated her Primordial Energy, planning to resist unto death.

"How dare you speak like that?" Sang Qing’s face turned pale, and then she shouted harshly.

...

"Mr. Jing, is Saintess Bai Xue someone you know? Huh, Mr. Jing, what are you... going to do?" Jiao Zhan, too, was momentarily distracted by Bai Xue’s stunning beauty, and when he came back to his senses, he instinctively asked Jing Yan sitting next to him.

However, when he turned his head to look for Jing Yan, he found that Jing Yan had already stood up from his seat and walked out, causing him to call out in shock.

"Brother Jiao, you three... if anyone asks about your relationship with me later, just say that we met by chance," Jing Yan turned around, pondering, and said to the three people.

Jiao Zhan and the others did not understand what Jing Yan meant, just as they saw Jing Yan stride towards the platform.

Jing Yan’s actions quickly drew the attention of everyone present, and people looked at him with surprise.

"Bai Xue, how have you been these years?" Jing Yan’s gentle voice emanated.

Bai Xue, who was still thinking about how to ambush Fang Jie, knew she couldn’t hurt him, but since she was already resolved to die, she might as well try. Just as this thought crossed her mind, she suddenly heard this familiar voice.

Bai Xue’s face showed a surprised expression. Her eyes quickly located where Jing Yan was.

"Jing... Jing Yan?" Bai Xue couldn’t believe her eyes.

In her subconscious, Jing Yan was already dead. The Jing Yan who was supposed to be dead suddenly appeared before her. In that moment, she thought she was hallucinating, a hallucination caused by deep longing.
