Chapter 281 The Victory of the Hehuan Sect!

"I didn't!" Yue Ruoshui's sharp rebuttal rang out.

Seeing Yue Ruoshui's attempt to cover up her secret, Yue Xunzhu patted her head and then said to Shen Youqing, "Young Master Xiao must have told you quite a bit."

Shen Youqing nodded and honestly said, "There are still some parts I don't quite understand."

“They were truly in love back then, so Ruoshui has never been able to accept Fifth Qing’s betrayal.” Yue Xunzhu said bluntly, “Ruoshui grew up smoothly, so this incident was a huge blow to her.”

“But…” Shen Youqing bit her lip, “Why did Sister Ruoshui only torment herself?”

Yue Ruoshui wanted to retort, but under Shen Youqing's clear and calm gaze, she felt exposed and couldn't bring herself to say anything in response.

Yue Xunzhu had a feeling that Shen Youqing's next words were not kind.

“If Sister Ruoshui is not satisfied, she can keep him by her side and torture him severely.” Shen Youqing carefully chose his words. “Given Uncle’s temper and methods, if Sister Ruoshui asks, the Fifth Family will definitely send Fifth Qing here.”

Isn't this how family background is used?

After careful consideration, Yue Xunzhu found that there was some truth to it.

Yue Ruoshui paused for a moment.

"Since you're letting go, why not let go completely?" Shen Youqing scratched his head. "Betrayal is betrayal, what's so unacceptable about that?"

In life, everyone experiences betrayal.

Either kill the person or let go; keeping yourself trapped in one place is the stupidest thing to do!

“But the Yue family…” Yue Ruoshui wanted to explain her reasons, “I’m afraid that if I do that, it will damage the relationship between the two families. After all, I am a young lady of the Yue family, and I cannot disregard the overall situation.”

"When Fifth Qing brought a woman to the Yue family to break off the engagement, he had already damaged the relationship between the two families," Shen Youqing said calmly. "He did it first, so why can't Sister Ruoshui do it later?"

If you ask her, Sister Ruoshui is just too kind.

Yue Ruoshui pursed her pale lips, her expression revealing a hint of hesitation.

Yue Xunzhu and Shen Youqing said, "Ruoshui has a gentle nature, and she's also kind-hearted, so..."

“So she’s the only one who got hurt.” Shen Youqing couldn’t help but chime in, then pursed her lips honestly.

Yue Xunzhu paused for a moment, then raised his hand and patted Yue Ruoshui's head.

Jinjin is right.

Shen Youqing took a bite of the jerky, then asked her brother in a low voice, "Brother, why is Sister Ruoshui so kind?"

She was raised by her older brother, and her personality was largely inherited from him.

But Sister Ruoshui...

Well, Sister Ruoshui is so kind and gentle that she doesn't seem like her brother's biological sister.

“Ruoshui wasn’t raised by me,” Yue Xunzhu said gently to Shen Youqing. “I was born the young master and was raised and taught by my father from the time I can remember, but Ruoshui grew up with my mother.”

Thinking of his reclusive aunt, Shen Youqing seemed to have found the reason.

My aunt is an exceptionally gentle woman, or to put it bluntly, weak.

"Of course, some people might be born that way," Yue Xunzhu couldn't help but tease. "You were born domineering and unreasonable."

"..." Shen Youqing's face fell.

Yue Xunzhu patted her head, then looked at the gloomy and taciturn Yue Ruoshui.

"Let's not talk about that for now. Are you confident about the doubles match with Fellow Daoist Liang tomorrow?" Yue Xunzhu asked.

Shen Youqing pointed at herself and said, "Brother, aren't you overestimating me?"

Their opponents are Jiang Chenying and Xie Changyan!
Is she confident?

She had absolutely no confidence!
"Ruoshui and I will come to cheer you on tomorrow," Yue Xunzhu said gently. "Just do your best and try not to get hurt."

Shen Youqing nodded.

Seeing Yue Ruoshui's somewhat resistant expression, Yue Xunzhu spoke gently, "Ruoshui, it's time for you to come out."

Looking at her brother's gentle yet forceful attitude, Yue Ruoshui had no choice but to comply, no matter how unwilling she was.

The next day.

Over there in the arena.

Shen Youqing, dressed in a smart outfit, looked capable and simple, with her long hair braided into a plait hanging down her back.

"Qingyu Sect and Hehuan Sect, please step forward!"

As the elder's voice faded, the arena was already packed with people.

The four people came up from both sides, bowed and greeted each other, and then immediately began their attack. Jiang Chenying and Xie Changyan shared the same opinion: they could not allow Shen Youqing to use the healing array.

Yue Ruoshui, standing below the arena, narrowed her eyes as she looked at the afterimage above.

Such fast movement.

Jiang Chenying's target is Shen Youqing, while Xie Changyan's target is Liang Shimu.

Liang Shimu, who was held back by Xie Changyan, couldn't pay attention to Shen Youqing for the time being, and he was sweating bullets for Shen Youqing.

Shen Youqing, wielding a long, emerald-green sword, was facing off against Jiang Chenying.

"How could Shen Youqing, who is in the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, hold his own against Jiang Chenying, who is in the late-stage of the Golden Core realm? Is Shen Youqing just too powerful, or is Jiang Chenying holding back?"

"Where did you get the idea that Jiang Chenying showed mercy?"

"Jiang Chenying looks like he's about to kill Shen Youqing. Do you think he's holding back?"

"All I can say is that Shen Youqing is really strong!"

……

"Little junior sister!"

Liang Shimu's voice rang out.

Shen Youqing immediately understood Liang Shimu's meaning. When the five-tailed white fox tripped Xie Changyan, she threw out a stack of talismans to trip Jiang Chenying.

Liang Shimu and Shen Youqing quickly switched positions.

The five-tailed white fox and Liang Shimu charged toward Jiang Chenying together.

The two, one human and one fox, worked together so well that Jiang Chenying had no time to spare.

Xie Changyan swung his longsword and cleaved several talismans in one fell swoop.

Shen Youqing sheathed his longsword and quickly created afterimages by forming hand seals.

"Xie Changyan is also in the late stage of the Golden Core realm! Shen Youqing has no chance of winning!"

"Healing Array!"

A bluish-green light array lit up beneath Liang Shimu and Shen Youqing's feet.

Faced with the thrusting sword, Shen Youqing gripped the blade with his five fingers like claws and then threw a punch.

Xie Changyan leaned back to dodge, then raised his sword and slashed at Shen Youqing.

Ignoring the cut on his palm from the sword, Shen Youqing threw out the talisman array with a backhand.

With the support of the healing array, Liang Shimu's strength instantly rose to the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage.

The two, one human and one fox, turned the tide and the fox gained the upper hand over Jiang Chenying.

……

"Hehuan Zongsheng!"

As Xie Changyan was swept off the stage by Shen Youqing, the elder's voice rang out.

Shen Youqing, who was on the fighting stage, took a breath and a bright smile appeared on his face.

Liang Shimu turned his head to look, and the eyes of the two senior and junior brothers met. Then they laughed together, full of high spirits.

"Awesome!" Lin Youran exclaimed happily.

Yang Yousheng and Lin Jinyao gave the two a thumbs up and offered their congratulations.

The senior brother and junior sister are absolutely amazing!!
After the two of them came down from the arena, Xiao Ke pulled Shen Youqing's wrist and looked at the deep, bone-revealing wound on her palm, his brows furrowing little by little.

Shen Youqing didn't say anything as she watched the man carefully bandaging her wound.

Chi Guyuan and the other two walked up, looking at their two senior brothers with some concern.

"It's nothing," Jiang Chenying said.

That was a really exciting match!
Xie Changyan said coldly, "She makes hand seals at an extremely fast speed, moving and making hand seals at the same time, making it impossible to interrupt her."

Shen Youqing's hand gestures on the arena were quite different from his usual skill.

It's clear she had something up her sleeve all along.

Jiang Chenying glanced sideways at Shen Youqing, who was not far away.

The five-person tournament is going to be a headache.
