My Fiancée Broke Our Engagement for Her Best Friend, but I Awakened the Chaotic Divine Body - Chapter 12:
Chapter 12: The Three Great Powers Descend on the Yun Residence
Now that everything was laid bare, the Sect Master of the Heavenly Profound Sect smirked slightly. Fortunately, he had already prepared for this move. Most of the sect’s elders were present. Although the princess possessed unmatched talent, she was still part of the younger generation. If it truly came to a fight, as the Sect Master of the Heavenly Profound Sect, he feared no one.
The princess narrowed her bright eyes. Her crimson dress, embroidered with golden phoenixes, seemed to burst into flames, radiating a suffocating heat. Behind her, a powerful figure from the Royal Academy stepped forward confidently, “The Dean asked us to deliver a message to Sect Master Jiang.”
“If this command token still isn’t enough, then he won’t mind coming personally to talk to Sect Master Jiang.”
As soon as the words fell, the spiritual Qi of the Royal Academy’s many experts surged violently. The terrifying pressure made it impossible for anyone in Lingqu City to even lift their heads. Gao Yang trembled with fear, but after the shock, he felt an indescribable sense of pride. This kind of confrontation—where the Great Li Empire and the Heavenly Profound Sect were about to come to blows just to win him over—was unimaginable honor.
Jiang Qianhe’s eyes swept over the scene and paused on the black-gold command token, his expression showing hesitation. But a few seconds later, he clenched his jaw. Offending the Empire wasn’t a small matter, but there was only one spirit body.
“In that case, I’ll take Gao Yang with me for now. If the old Dean wants to visit, he can come directly to the Heavenly Profound Sect.”
Among everyone present today, he had the strongest fist. He would take the person first, and once back at the Heavenly Profound Sect, if the others still wanted him to hand him over, they’d have to dream on.
“Sect Master Jiang, don’t say we didn’t warn you.”
The princess’s eyes turned red like an enraged phoenix, her terrifying aura making the noble families of Lingqu City shiver uncontrollably. If these major figures really started fighting, they could easily destroy the entire city with just a wave of their hands. Moreover, a direct clash between the Heavenly Profound Sect and the Royal Academy was something no one had ever witnessed in their lifetime.
The confrontation between the two sides grew tense, neither willing to back down. Even the air around them seemed frozen.
Just then, the teleportation array lit up again, drawing a clear boundary between the Heavenly Profound Sect and the Royal Academy.
Ling Guhai stared at the teleportation light, his scalp tingling. Anyone who could afford to activate the teleportation array at this time in Lingqu City was definitely not someone to provoke.
A radiant glow shone, and a flawless, delicate pink foot stepped out, hovering slightly above the ground, untouched by dust. A fluttering sash shimmered like moonlit glass, and beneath a sheer veil appeared a breathtakingly beautiful face. The graceful figure descended into Lingqu City, and in an instant, the suffocating tension eased into calm serenity. Though her full appearance was hidden, her elegant curves—like a celestial maiden dancing under the moon—were enough to intoxicate any man in the world.
She was like a moon fairy, her light steps scattering stars across the galaxy.
“You two, I arrived a bit late, but from the looks of it, I didn’t miss anything important.”
Her voice was soft and melodic like warm jade. Ling Guhai was momentarily dazed and filled with reverence.
The Pavilion Master of the Starseizing Pavilion!
She had personally come.
Not only that, behind her stood a group of powerful cultivators. Even the two maids flanking her, each with a beauty that could outshine the moon, radiated an intimidating aura that made others dare not look directly.
This formation was no less than that of the Heavenly Profound Sect.
Though her gestures were gentle and elegant, her words were decisive and powerful, “Since everyone is here, I’ll speak plainly.”
“I want the person. Whatever you can offer, my Starseizing Pavilion can offer too.”
“If it’s a fight you want… I’ll gladly accompany you to the end.”
Hiss!
Ling Guhai nearly collapsed from the shock of her words.
What kind of existence was the Starseizing Pavilion?
One of the three great powers of the Empire, with a foundation not inferior to the Heavenly Profound Sect. Especially their founding ancestor, who had achieved the Peak stage of the Star Spirit Body and was the strongest figure in the Great Li Empire.
That was a person who had carved out a place with sheer force, even the imperial family had to yield before him. Back then, his words, “The world only knows the Starseizing Pavilion, not the Empire or the Heavenly Profound Sect,” still echoed like thunder in people’s ears.
The princess’s bright eyes burned with fury. It was one thing for Jiang Qianhe to ignore the might of the Empire, but now the Starseizing Pavilion wanted to meddle too?
“Senior experts, bullying the young with your seniority doesn’t sound very dignified. If you want to fight, I’ll gladly match you at the same cultivation level.”
Jiang Qianhe scowled coldly, “Pavilion Master Yue, your ancestor once built a grand pavilion from nothing.”
“But that was in the past. Here and now…”
“The Heavenly Profound Sect makes the rules!”
With a deafening boom, Jiang Qianhe stomped down, shattering the teleportation array into dust!
Ling Guhai’s heart nearly jumped out of his chest. What did that mean? He had just cut off the Empire’s reinforcements?
This was practically declaring war.
No one expected that the arrival of the Pavilion Master of the Starseizing Pavilion would not calm the situation, but instead shake all of Lingqu City even more violently.
The Pavilion Master stood like a mist-shrouded moon fairy. The princess’s fiery red dress burned like rising flames, forming the vague image of a phoenix crying out.
None of the three great powers was willing to back down.
Everyone in the city trembled in fear, yet Gao Wanhua’s eyes darted around. She quickly stepped forward with a flattering smile, “Honored guests, please calm your anger.”
“Today is a wonderful occasion. Let’s not ruin the harmony.”
“You’ve all traveled far. Please allow my humble home to offer you some hospitality.”
Gao Wanhua understood well that she couldn’t afford to offend any of these three powers. But at the same time, she was scheming—this wasn’t about asking for someone anymore, this was a competition to seize someone.
Whoever wanted to take away her Yang’er would have to offer more treasures. If she could benefit from all three…
Gao Yang immediately chimed in, “That’s right, please move to the Yun Residence so we can properly welcome you.”
Jiang Qianhe and the others exchanged glances and finally restrained their spiritual Qi.
But from their expressions, it was clear that this was no longer about strength. Even in terms of wealth, none of the three were willing to yield.
“Please…”
Led by Gao Yang, the three great powers headed toward the Yun Residence. Along the way, each of the three factions tried to impress Gao Yang, speaking to him warmly and even competing to walk beside him. When the princess walked shoulder-to-shoulder with him, the cold fragrance from her body stirred his blood.
The three great powers nearly came to blows just to win him over. Now walking down the street, every step he took felt like he was walking on clouds.
“Yun Nishang, you dared haggle with me yesterday when I asked you to serve me. Now even the princess is walking side by side with me.”
“And you, Qin Xiu, look at the people around me. Any one of them could crush you with a single finger!”
Meanwhile, at the Yun Residence.
Qin Xiu had just stepped out of his room when he bumped into Yun Nishang.
“Nishang?”
Yun Nishang didn’t even have time to steady herself. She grabbed his hand and pulled him urgently, “Qin Xiu, don’t speak. Just go, now!”
She had just secretly glanced outside. The Sect Master of the Heavenly Profound Sect was personally receiving Gao Yang. The entire Yun Residence had gone to welcome them. This was their only chance to escape.
She could only pray that once Gao Yang gained the Sect Master’s favor, he would no longer bother with them.
But Qin Xiu frowned and held her jade-like arm, “Go? Why do we need to run?”
Yun Nishang anxiously stomped her foot. This fool still didn’t understand that if they didn’t escape now, they would never have another chance…
Just then, the sound of the main gates opening with a dull boom turned Yun Nishang’s face as pale as paper. She froze on the spot.
Too late. It was all over.
