"Azhen." Jiang Yue screamed in terror.
His hands went cold, his vision blurred, and his head shook a little.
In the next moment, he urged his qi and wanted to fly to his husband.
"Donât worry, he is okay." Xuan Ke said and held him back.
The moment the intent barrier broke, Yu Nianzhen surrounded himself with a thick layer of qi.
Although the qi barrier was not as effective as the intent barrier, it was enough to help him clear the purple area.
When he was about ten metres above the poisonous area, Yu Nianzhen stopped and checked his body.
âStill fine.â He thought and heaved a sigh of relief.
However, he could feel Jiang Yueâs terror through the bond and his heart ached.
He didnât want to worry his husband but there was no way to always avoid risks.
âI hope he wonât be angry.â Yu Nianzhen thought and looked at Jiang Yue.
A moment later, Lin Qian announced the match results and Yu Nianzhen rushed to Jiang Yue.
"XiaoYue..." He started but Jiang Yue didnât give him a chance.
He threw himself into his arms and hugged him tightly.
Yu Nianzhen was shocked and his heart turned astringent.
"I am sorry." He said.
"Itâs good that you are okay." Jiang Yue said.
Although he didnât blame Yu Nianzhen, his heart could not calm down.
They had died once and finally won a new chance at life.
No matter what, he didnât want anything to happen to Yu Nianzhen.
"You need to adjust your breath." He said and got out of Yu Nianzhenâs arms.
"XiaoYue..."
"In fact, there is nothing to worry about. I will accompany you in life or death."
Yu Nianzhen clenched his hands, and his heart skipped a beat.
They vowed to accompany each other no matter the circumstances.
However, he wanted to live.
He wanted to have a long and prosperous life with Jiang Yue.
For that, Yu Nianzhen was willing to do anything.
"XiaoYue, I won the match." He suddenly said.
When Jiang Yue heard the words, he chuckled, and his mood improved.
"Yes, you won. I will give you a reward later."
Seeing that Jiang Yueâs mood had lightened, Yu Nianzhen rubbed his head and returned to the formation prepared beforehand.
"Brother Yu is amazing." Xuan Ke said with admiration in his eyes.
"Put away your eyes. Azhen is mine." Jiang Yue warned and sneered at his sworn brother.
Xuan Ke was taken aback and his lips twitched.
âWho wants such a big man? I like cute and soft girls.â However, Xuan Ke didnât dare to say his thoughts because he had a feeling that his brother would take offence.
This was the kind of situation where he was doomed if he did and doomed if he didnât.
In the end, he chose the only safe route.
"Brother Yu is good but I donât dare to covet him. Only brother Jiang is worthy of him." Xuan Ke stomped on himself and raised Jiang Yue to the cloud.
When he heard that, Jiang Yue puffed out his chest and felt a little proud.
âAs I thought, only I am worthy of such an excellent man.â He thought and didnât forget to encourage Xuan Ke.
"Brother Xuan, you will also find your soulmate in the future. They wonât be as good as my Azhen but they will also be very good."
Xuan Ke didnât know what to say to that.
He was the one who chose the route and now that it had come to this, he had no way to complain.
While the two were talking, an invisible butterfly flew over and landed on Jiang Yueâs index finger.
[Whatâs the matter? Why did you come back?] Jiang Yue asked.
Initially, XiaoLan had to shuttle back and forth between Jiang Yue and Bing Lan.
However, Jiang Yue soon realised he was being stupid.
XiaoLan was his contract beast and they could communicate through the contract.
After figuring it out, he let XiaoLan stay with Bing Lan and convey news through the contract.
[Master, the ice palace master has asked an elder to prepare the seven nights fire flower.]
[Seven nights fire flower...] Jiang Yue repeated before his eyes flew wide open.
The seven nights fire flower was equivalent to a modern-day aphrodisiac.
However, there was no antidote for the seven nights fire flower.
If someone was poisoned with it, the only solution was to double cultivate for seven days and nights.
"This is not good." Jiang Yue muttered and his heart felt a little urgent.
Bing Lan was an ice marrow physique.
If she took the seven nights fire flower, her physique would explode and normal double cultivation wouldnât help her.
She would need to double cultivate with a yang physique or she would die.
"Whatâs not good?" Xuan Ke asked.
He couldnât see or hear XiaoLan so he was surprised by Jiang Yueâs sudden reaction.
Without going into details, Jiang Yue gave a brief summary of what was going on and Xuan Ke was appalled.
"Are they planning to go that far?"
"They didnât expect Nianzhen to be so powerful. They are probably guarding against us."
If Bing Lan and Xuan Dong cooked raw rice, Yang Xu would have no choice but to give up even if Yu Nianzhen won the martial contest.
"This palace master is too unscrupulous."
Jiang Yue also agreed with Xuan Keâs assessment but he didnât get into it. More than admonishing Shui Qingqing, he had to think of a way forward.
"Whatâs your plan?" Xuan Ke asked.
"We can only bring the plan forward." Jiang Yue said and gave XiaoLan some instructions.
Soon after, XiaoLan flew away and landed on Yang Xuâs shoulder.
After whispering something to him, she flew back to Bing Lan and floated close to her ear.
"Our Cangxing world is becoming stranger and stranger." Xuan Ke lamented and sighed.
"What do you mean?"
"Itâs strange how a marriage engagement turned into something so convoluted. There is also the Death Flower Ascension Front...."
"Brother Jiang, I am actually worried that the Ice Palace sect wonât honour the agreement. With the current situation of the Sea Cloud sect, elder yang may not be able to keep the beauty even if he wins it."
"I know."
Jiang Yue had also realised this problem.
If master Yang did not like Bing Lan, maybe they would have already given up the contest.
However, master Yang did like the ice fairy.
For the time being, Yu Nianzhen could only win the contest and figure out the rest when the time came.
"The platform has been repaired." Jiang Yue said to change the subject.
"I canât believe brother Yu turned Yin Jun into blood mist." Xuan Ke said in awe.
"He asked for it."
"People from the Yin family donât seem to think so." Xuan Ke said and tipped his head towards a certain direction.
Jiang Yue turned about and saw a group of people glaring in their direction.
The group of people had vicious eyes and Jiang Yue felt a little hairy.
"We need to be more careful." He said and frowned.
If they were ordinary enemies, he wouldnât care too much.
However, the Yin family was a family of poison refiners.
Jiang Yue didnât want to die inexplicably so he had to keep an eye out for them.
Most importantly, Jiang Yue knew that the Yin family was cooperating with Shui Qingqing.
In previous fights, Yin Jun was vicious but he always gave his opponents a chance to survive.
However, things changed when it came to Yu Nianzhen.
As soon as the fight started, he deployed a devastating poison that had no cure.
At that time, Jiang Yue didnât think much about it. He only thought it was in line with Yin Junâs character.
However, when Yin Jun was killed, Shui Qingqing was furious.
She muttered a few words to herself but these words were caught by XiaoLan.
From what XiaoLan heard, Yin Jun was a dead man raised by the Yin family.
Before the contest started, the Yin family made a deal with Shui Qingqing.
According to the deal, Yin Jun would eliminate strong opponents for Xuan Dong and eventually die at the end of the martial contest.
Through his death, the Yin family would not be troubled by the relations of the dead participants.
Even if they were troubled, the ice palace would interfere and smooth the necessary edges.
Unfortunately, Yin Jun didnât live up to expectations and was killed before the end.
âShui Qingqing, I will never let you go.â Jiang Yue thought and his hate-filled eyes turned to the palace master.
At the time, Shui Qingqing was saying something to an elder.
However, she felt a chill on her back and her lips curled downward.
She felt like a poisonous fierce beast was staring at her and she couldnât be comfortable.
At a loss, she looked around the martial arena and finally discovered Jiang Yue.
She stared at the young man who was glaring at her and a beautiful smile curled her lips.
âInteresting.â She thought and winked at him.
