Chapter 75: Powerful and Unreasonable!
Next Day, The tournament Venue,
Ashen was guided by the two disciples to the tournament Venue along with the three beauties.
The Sect Leaders were yet to arrive, however, their seats could be seen from anywhere in the arena. The ten luxurious chairs were placed in a straight line on an elevated corridor above the seats in the arena.
The fighting ring had a white floor and was in square shape, however, the peculiar thing was that there were 64 separate rings down there.
The seating was also quite spacious and comfortable, most made from soft furs of spirit beasts.
Ashen chose the front seats and sat there with a calm expression. He was sitting on the right with Ling Yun to his left side, then Shiyue and then Veli to the end seat.
The disciples with different sect uniforms were rushing into the arena, sitting excitedly to witness the tournament.
"I wonder who will win the tournament?"
"Of course, the one who has the highest cultivation will win. See that Peak nascent soul cultivator, he has a high chance of winning!"
The disciple was pointing at Vi Ling who sat quietly on one of the seats.
Ashen just ignored these novices as he waited for the tournament to begin.
"Sister Veli, Senior sister Shiyue, how are you two?" Yujin's voice reverberated in the area as he rushed towards them before stopping in front of Veli.
"It's been long since I last saw you two" Yujin said with a smile but Shiyue straightly ignored him, turning her face to the other side.
This was one of the conditions in the oath, so she was fulfilling it.
Veli on the other hand looked towards Ashen with a hesitant expression.
Ashen smiled before nodding, giving her permission to talk to him.
Yujin who saw this was puzzled: "Just what happened when I was in close cultivation?"
Veli got up from her seat and took Yujin to the side so that Shiyue and Ling Yun wouldn't be able to hear.
"Sister Veli, what is going on? Why do I feel like you've changed" Yujin asked with a concerned expression.
Veli sighed as she explained in her cute, sweet voice: "Brother Yujin, I'm sorry, but I won't be able to maintain the same friendship with you as before!"
"What? Why?" Yujin was baffled to hear her declaration and wanted to know the reason.
Veli blushed a little before explaining with a cute expression: "I-Its because Brother Ashen and I like each other. We are in a relationship right now. Brother Ashen said that he doesn't like me talking to any other male besides him and I respect his wishes!"
Yujin's eyes popped open in disbelief and shock upon hearing that: "What? You must be joking Sister Veli, how can this happen? Didn't you like me?"
He shouted as Veli became angry: "What? Why would you think I liked you? I was just treating you as a friend and nothing else! Did you take my kindness as love? I didn't expect this from you, Brother Yujin!"
She spat before turning around and leaving.
"Wait! Sister Veli, don't do this! I know about him, he is a snake in human skin. He traps innocent women with his honey traps. I've seen him fool an innocent girl like you before too!"
Slap!
Veli slapped him as she scolded: "How dare you talk about Brother Ashen like that? He is so kind to me. When I was kidnapped, was it you who came to save me? No, it was him. Never speak about him like this in front of me again"
"What? You were kidnapped? When" He asked with a worry-filled expression.
"Sigh... Just leave it Brother Yujin, Don't try to talk to me in the future. Our friendship was till this moment only. Let's part on good terms!" Veli informed before turning around and leaving.
"Sister Veli, please reconsider, Please!" He pleaded but Veli didn't stop and left, going back to her seat, smiling at Ashen.
Ashen smiled back at her with a nod of praise.
Ashen had already instructed Veli that she couldn't inform anyone that they were in a relationship. First, it would break Ling Yun's heart and second, Shiyue and her mother may not approve of their relationship right now.
Veli understood this and agreed, this was the reason she took Yujin away.
Yujin, on the other hand, had tears in his eyes, as he murmured: "Again... That bastard took my love away from me again!"
"Why does every girl think of me as a friend and him as her lover?"
He, then eyed Ashen with hatred, as he cursed in his heart: "You Bastard, Wasn't Xiran enough for you? Now you even snatched my lovely Sister Veli too! I swear you will die by my hands even if I had to die a thousand times to kill you!"
He made up his mind before turning around and leaving to a different seat in the back from where Ashen's seat wasn't visible.
After some moments, another voice reached Ashen's ears: "Yun Er!"
Ashen turned around to find Mo Fan dashing towards him at full speed. He stopped in front of him before ignoring him completely, staring at Ling Yun with tears in his eyes: "Yun Er, I finally found you!"
"Do you know how worried I was when I heard that you've been wrongfully imprisoned by the Vine Bull Sect? I was even going to join Vine Bull Sect to save you but then I heard that some young master from Phoenix Feather Sect took you with him as his maid. So I joined this sect, though I almost died at the entrance test!"
He just kept on going in the happiness of seeing his childhood sweetheart again without any care of the environment he was in.
"Ah, right, where is the young master who took you as his maid? Let me request him to release you!"
Ling Yun kept quiet as he just turned her head to her right, looking at Ashen.
Mo Fan followed her gaze, noticing Ashen sitting just beside her.
He saw Ashen calmly sitting there as his eyes widened, recognizing him.
It was only him who knew that he was an origin realm cultivator so he wouldn't dare to be rash in front of him.
Also, from his perspective, Ashen was too difficult to deal with. He was the combination of two dangerous qualities.
He was both Powerful and Unreasonable!
