"Do you have anything to say?"

Zi Han turned around to look at Ye Chen, her eyes filled with coldness and a chilling killing intent.

The situation had developed to this point, and Zi Han was determined to kill Ye Chen. Even if she couldn't kill him, she had to try because she had already made the threat. Not killing Ye Chen would be a slap in her own face.

"I want to say..." Ye Chen took a deep breath.

"What do you want to say?" Qing Ge frowned and asked.

Ye Chen had only said half of what he wanted to say and then fell silent again.

"I forgot what I wanted to say." Ye Chen smiled awkwardly.

"..." Qing Ge was speechless.

"Ye Chen, don't think you can stall for time or try to fool us; no one can save you today!"

Zi Han had interacted with Ye Chen a lot and knew he was cunning and hard to deal with.

However, Zi Han had already revealed her intention to kill, and no matter how crafty Ye Chen was, he couldn't escape her overwhelming strength.

"I was just trying to lighten the tense atmosphere, I meant nothing else," Ye Chen said.

"Hmph!" Zi Han snorted coldly and stepped towards Ye Chen, as if she was about to make a move.

"Zi Han, you haven't developed a heart demon, but if you insist on this path, you'll have a mental deviation!"

Qing Ge stood in front of Ye Chen, clearly showing her stance.

"Qing Ge, don't stop me!" Zi Han said.

"Ye Chen is the Saint Heir of Baihua Palace!" Qing Ge said just one line, waiting for Zi Han's decision.

Ye Chen was Yu Jizi's inheritor and also Qing Ge's host. Given the current unclear causes and effects around Qing Ge, Ye Chen absolutely could not die!

Qing Ge hoped Zi Han would back down because she felt guilty and didn't want to stop violence with violence.

"Since you're insistent on stopping me, let's fight it out and see who's stronger!" Zi Han said.

"You want to fight me?" Qing Ge raised an eyebrow.

Although Zi Han had made some breakthroughs, Qing Ge's depth was still greater, remaining ahead of her.

"We both have transcended limits and have never fought to the death before. Who knows who's stronger?" Qing Ge said.

"Fine." Qing Ge said. "Since you're not convinced, come and fight."

"Hey, are you ignoring me while talking about fighting?" Ye Chen suddenly spoke up, trying to assert his presence.

"If you don't want to die, stay quiet!" Zi Han said in a cold tone.

"Why should I?" Ye Chen said. "If you tell me to stay quiet, should I just obey? Who do you think you are?"

"You're not even my wife; why should I listen to you!"

Ye Chen felt unnoticed because Qing Ge and Zi Han ignored him, so he decided to make his presence known.

"You want to die!" Zi Han said angrily.

"Come on, kill me! Kill me!" Ye Chen taunted.

"..." Ye Chen was so boisterous, like a child, making others uneasy.

"I'm starting to look down on you!" Ye Chen looked at Zi Han and said. "Because you obviously like me but don't dare face your true feelings, that's really disappointing."

"Who likes you!" Zi Han screamed as soon as she heard this, like a cat flaring up with spikes all over.

"Whether you like me or not... Anyway, I don't like you anymore!" Ye Chen said. "You're too tedious, being in a relationship with you is exhausting. I've decided to move on and like Qing Ge instead!"

Ye Chen's tone was extremely casual, as if Zi Han was not worth his affection and could be discarded at any moment.

Zi Han was stunned by Ye Chen's words, thinking to herself... did Ye Chen just dump her?

"This guy is too infuriating!"

Not only was Zi Han dumbfounded, but Qing Ge was also taken aback, wondering how Ye Chen dared to speak such words.

"Alright, you two have fun, I'm leaving." Ye Chen shook his hand calmly and then turned to leave.

"Trying to leave?"

Zi Han, ridiculed by Ye Chen, felt turmoil inside and couldn't let Ye Chen leave when she saw him trying to go.

"You think you can stop me?" Ye Chen said arrogantly.

"..."

Ye Chen's behavior was so arrogant that it made people grind their teeth in hatred. Why was he so presumptuous when he was just a half-step from Transcendence?

"Come back!"

Zi Han made a move.

Ye Chen decided to leave so casually, not showing her any respect, which irked Zi Han greatly.

Besides, Ye Chen said he didn't like her anymore, which Zi Han couldn't tolerate. Who gave him the right to be so arrogant?

Boom!

A large hand descended from the sky, exuding a terrifying aura, reaching out to grab Ye Chen.

"Zi Han, let him go," Qing Ge scattered rune marks all over her body and also conjured a large hand to stop Zi Han.

"Qing Ge!" Zi Han was anxious.

"I can't let you kill him!" Qing Ge said.

"I can spare his life, but! I need him to clear things up, why he doesn't like me!"

Zi Han had already developed emotional attachment, often thinking of Ye Chen, already fallen into the web of love.

Ye Chen left nonchalantly, with an indifferent attitude, which deeply hurt Zi Han.

She could kill a Ye Chen who liked her, but couldn't let go of a Ye Chen who didn't like her.

"He genuinely likes you, yet you want to kill him... why would he continue to like you?" Qing Ge answered the question.

"..." Zi Han was left speechless.

Strong individuals are often self-centered, and Zi Han, being a transcendent strong, naturally has some dominance. Does that even need explaining?

However, by this time, Ye Chen had already left far away, too far to catch up with even at a fast gallop.

"I don't even know what's happening."

Ye Chen's departure without any hesitation deflated Zi Han's momentum, leaving her spiritless.

At this moment, Zi Han's previous ferocity was replaced by a pitiable demeanor, arousing sympathy.

"Fool!" Qing Ge walked over to gently console. "If you like Ye Chen, why won't you dare to face it?"

Qing Ge understood the horror of the Mysterious Maiden Skill, knowing that whoever cultivates it is destined to fall into a deep web of emotions.

Yet, Zi Han's refusal to follow her true feelings puzzled Qing Ge. This shouldn't be!

"I've been wholeheartedly pursuing the Heavenly Tao Extreme Realm, how could I get distracted by matters of the heart?" Zi Han posed as a cultivation fanatic.

"Are matters of the heart really a distraction?" Qing Ge asked. "We've seen many strong practitioners of Heavenly Dao become Dao partners."

"But I don't want to..." Zi Han's expression darkened.

"Zi Han, let me tell you a secret." Qing Ge said.

"What secret?" Zi Han asked.

"Actually, Ye Chen has a mentor who is a Heavenly Dao expert!" Qing Ge said. "I am a relic of the previous era. I have seen an invincible presence leading even the greatest transcendents to submission... Ye Chen carries his aura and should be his disciple!"

"This!"

The information Qing Ge shared was too much for Zi Han to digest in one go.

"Ye Chen is already extraordinarily talented, and supported by a Heavenly Dao expert. Even if you follow him, you won't be belittling yourself," Qing Ge continued to matchmake.

"But, I..." Zi Han seemed to have some unspeakable secret.

"A young man as outstanding as Ye Chen is hard to find. Why are you still hesitating?" Qing Ge completely took on the role of matchmaker.

"But... I already have someone I like!" Zi Han said unexpectedly.

"What!" Qing Ge was dumbstruck.
