Chapter 4103 — Longing to See Tianchan
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
If he was not mistaken, Wei Zhao's strength should still be only at the peak of the late Foundation Establishment stage—yet an aura like this felt comparable to an early Golden Core expert!
"Zheng Dongjue, you old bastard! If I, Wei Zhao, do not hack you to pieces in this life, may I never be human again!" After hearing it all, Wei Zhao was so furious that the veins bulged on his forehead, his fists clenched tight, boiling with rage.
By his nature, even if someone foolishly provoked him, he would at most strike them down and be done with it; normally he would never truly lose his temper, much less lose control of his emotions as he had now.
But today, having heard of Tianchan's ordeal, Wei Zhao had completely lost his self-control.
This unexpected trip to the Middle Island had first brought Xueli's troubles, and now he had learned of Tianchan's miserable fate—how could Wei Zhao not go berserk!
"Wei Zhao, calm down first..." Seeing this, Xueli hurriedly tugged at him, afraid that if he lost control he would charge straight out. This was the Middle Island, where experts gathered like clouds—Golden Core cultivators walked everywhere and Foundation Establishment was worth less than a dog. If Wei Zhao lost control and went berserk, he would be the one to suffer.
"Why is Young Hero Lin so agitated?" Cai Zhongxuan asked, puzzled by Wei Zhao's reaction.
"Tianchan is like me—back in the mortal realm, she and Wei Zhao already..." Xueli could only explain, blushing.
Though she did not finish, Cai Zhongxuan understood well enough, and could not help sighing inwardly: this Wei Zhao was truly a man of romantic exploits. Even in the mortal realm he had so many confidantes of heavenly beauty—this Xueli before him was already a top-tier beauty of the first order, and that Tianchan, from what he heard, was the same.
The phrase "beauty is a source of trouble" was truly not wrong at all, especially on this Cloud Terrace Island where the strong preyed on the weak. The reason both Xueli and Tianchan attracted so much trouble was simply that they were too beautiful.
Still, Cai Zhongxuan suddenly thought of his own master, who was in fact much the same—bringing Masters Bing and Xue up from the mortal realm, and at the beginning it seemed to have kicked up quite a stir as well.
Cai Zhongxuan mused for a moment, then said to Wei Zhao: "Young Hero Lin, seeing Tianchan is not impossible. Several of my fellow disciples are in the Elixir Hall; we are all nominal disciples of the same master and look after one another. I can ask them for help and arrange for you to meet Tianchan."
"Truly?" Wei Zhao's violent aura paused, and his mind gradually recovered from its fury.
Cai Zhongxuan nodded firmly. "But first you must promise me one thing: you absolutely must not act rashly. My master is not in the Elixir Hall at present, and that Zheng Dongjue, as the most powerful deputy hall master, is now the greatest authority in the Elixir Hall. With your current strength, challenging him would be seeking your own death—even I could not help you then."
Wei Zhao drew a long, deep breath and lowered his head to compose himself for a moment before nodding in agreement. "Good. I will do as Elder Cai says."
He had regained his clarity from the rage. Though Tianchan had suffered no small grievance, this so-called ghost marriage, seen from her perspective, was not such a bad thing after all. Zheng Tianjie was thoroughly dead and could not possibly do anything to her; on the contrary, this status could serve as her protective umbrella, sparing her much trouble. R1152
