Chapter 925 Beauty Brings Disaster (2/2)

The teacup in Jiu Gong’s hands dropped and shattered, but she didn’t seem to care. Her beautiful eyes were filled with curiosity as she watched the disturbance in the distance.

“What exactly is Zhou Yuan’s background? He is connected to both Su Youwei and Wu Yao?!” Jiu Gong exclaimed. She had always thought of Wu Yao and Su Youwei as enemies because their presence meant that she had always been suppressed although she was outstanding. It was inevitable that she felt a little bitter.

But because of this, she felt a little uncomfortable when she found that the two women were connected to Zhou Yuan.

That feeling was as though the perfect opponents in her heart showed some flaws because of Zhou Yuan. Even if she defeated them in the future, she wouldn’t feel satisfied.

She knew she felt like this because she felt that Zhou Yuan wasn’t qualified. If Zhou Yuan were replaced with someone like Zhao Mushen or Wang Xi, then perhaps she wouldn’t have that uncomfortable feeling.

Jiu Gong bit her lips, took out a handkerchief to wipe the water stains on her little hand, and finally grumbled, “What is Zhou Yuan’s background?”

The top floor of the Wushen Region’s building.

“What's going on? How would junior sister Wu Yao know Zhou Yuan?” Lan Ting’s face reddened with anger as he watched the happenings, his voice filled with rage.

Zhao Yunxuan suddenly smiled. “Don't worry. It’s not what you think. Zhou Yuan and junior sister Wu Yao have some sort of relationship, but it’s one between enemies.”

Lan Ting was taken aback. “You also know Zhou Yuan?”

“I met him when I went to Cangxuan Heaven with junior sister Wu Yao. I launched a palm strike at him, but he was able to luckily survive,” Zhao Yunxiao nonchalantly responded.

“Junior sister Wu Yao said that I have to leave that man for her to deal with, so I had to let him live.

“I didn't expect that guy to come to Hunyuan Heaven or even become the Tianyuan Region’s chief pavilion master. Haha, he is indeed a little impressive.”

Although Zhao Yunxuan said this, his expression wasn’t sincere. He was ranked 19th on the Divine Dwelling List, which was much worse than Zhou Yuan’s ninth place, but the ranking showed nothing since he and Lan Ting were both two of the Wushen Region’s secret powers. In terms of strength, he felt that Zhou Yuan wouldn’t be much stronger than him.

Lan Ting’s expression finally relaxed. “I overthought things. How would junior sister Wu Yao have a special relationship with that person?”

“But junior sister Wu Yao is a little too impulsive. Her appearance will most likely start rumors.”

Lan Ting’s eyes flashed coldly. This was directed at Zhou Yuan. Wu Yao was perfect in his heart, but Zhou Yuan was like a toad that gave her a flaw. This was absolutely unforgivable.

Lan Ting turned to say to Zhao Yunxiao, saying, “In the nine regions tournament, if there is a chance, it’s best to get rid of him.”

Zhao Yunxiao smiled. “Then let’s make a bet to see who will get rid of him first and who will stay with junior sister Wu Yao for the next year.”

“It’s not necessarily useful to stay by junior sister Wu Yao’s side,” Lan Ting said indifferently. “But I accept this bet.”

The two smiled at each other. It seemed they had decided Zhou Yuan’s end.

On the other hand, in the Zixiao Region’s building, Xue Jingtao’s face was livid when Su Youwei appeared. He stared at Zhou Yuan with dagger-like eyes.

The Zixiao Region disciples remained silent as anger similarly flashed in their eyes.

It was a kind of anger that appeared when the swan of their house flew into the arms of another.

Xue Jingtao took a deep breath, suppressing the anger and jealousy that caused a burning pain in his heart, and his eyes turned icy cold.

He turned to his junior and senior brothers. “If you have a chance, get rid of that man.”

No matter what story Su Youwei had with Zhou Yuan in the past, he couldn’t tolerate the pair’s close relationship. Therefore, Zhou Yuan had to die!

As Zhao Mushen had said, although Zhou Yuan had received countless attention from that day’s incident, it also created many enemies for him.

If he wasn’t strong enough, this beautiful thing might indeed become a curse.
