Divine King of Honour-Chapter 248: Fiancé
This battle had utterly shaken the entire Inner Sect with the name Xu Nian.
He became the fastest-promoted Inner Sect Disciple in the history of the sect. Continue reading at novelbuddy
Just five days after entering the sect, he had become an Elite Disciple.
Such an event was unprecedented in the entire history of the sect.
Soon, however, Xu Nian encountered a problem that gave him a headache.
He saw a young woman in a black Academy Robe approaching from a distance, her face pleasing to the eyes.
The loose Academy Robe still couldn’t hide her stunning figure, instead adding a mysterious charm to her beauty.
As soon as this woman appeared, the Inner Sect Disciples began to grow restless.
"Good heavens, isn’t that Yann Xi, one of the twin goddesses of our Artifact Refining Sect? What is she doing here?"
"Yes, it’s said that Yann Xi is Sister Hong’s younger sister. Countless disciples from the sect have pursued her, but no disciple has ever caught her eye."
...
Everyone was talking, their eyes filled with admiration for the young woman who had appeared.
Xu Nian, however, was greatly troubled; this woman was none other than the one he had met at Black Flame Lake.
Although he had prepared himself to meet her again, he hadn’t expected it to happen so soon.
"Xu Nian, let me introduce you. This is my sister, Yann Xi. How do you find her, isn’t she beautiful? Haven’t you been sneakily checking out my figure? I’ll let you in on a secret—her figure is no less impressive than mine. Pretty great, huh?" Yann Hong whispered into Xu Nian’s ear.
"Pfft!"
Xu Nian almost spat out blood.
His face turned bright red.
When had he ever sneakily checked out her figure?
And what kind of sister sells out her own sister like that? Is she really her elder sister?
As for whether Yann Xi’s figure was good or not, did she really need to tell him that?
If he were to tell her that not only had he seen her sister’s figure but he had also touched it, he wondered what Yann Hong would think.
Yann Hong saw Xu Nian’s flushed face and covered her mouth, giggling cheerfully.
It seemed like seeing Xu Nian embarrassed was a very enjoyable thing for her.
Yann Xi had by now arrived next to Xu Nian and the others.
Although Yann Hong had spoken quietly just now, with her cultivation level, she had still heard what was said.
She glared fiercely at her unscrupulous sister.
Then, acting as if nothing had happened, she looked at Xu Nian and calmly said, "I am Yann Xi, nice to meet you."
"I am Xu Nian, nice to meet you," Xu Nian nodded in response.
Both of them added "nice to meet you" to their introductions, clearly not wishing to bring up what had happened by the lake.
Yann Hong felt that their conversation was a bit odd but didn’t think too much about it.
"Yann Xi, now that Xu Nian has been promoted to Elite Disciple, why don’t you take him to report at the Elite Hall?" Yann Hong instructed.
"Alright, follow me," Yann Xi nodded, then turned to leave.
Yann Hong gave Xu Nian a light eyebrow raise, as if to say: I’ve done what I can as your sister; the rest is up to you.
Xu Nian was speechless, but he still followed Yann Xi out of the plaza.
The disciples on the plaza watched Xu Nian’s departing figure with eyes full of envy and jealousy.
Yann Xi, after all, was never known to walk alongside any man.
The fact that Xu Nian could now walk with her was a privilege many Elite Disciples could not enjoy.
On the way to the Elite Hall, Xu Nian walked side by side with Yann Xi, yet the atmosphere was exceptionally heavy.
"Um..." Xu Nian pondered for a moment, deciding to explain.
However, Yann Xi suddenly interrupted him.
"Xu Nian, do you like my sister?" Yann Xi suddenly turned to look at Xu Nian and asked seriously.
Xu Nian stumbled, nearly falling over.
"Sister Hong is a nice person, but..."
"Do you dislike my sister because of her age? Although she is already thirty, cultivators have long lifespans. My sister has Marquis Level cultivation and can live at least three hundred years. This age is the prime of her life, and if she can break through to become a Saint, she can retain her youth forever," Yann Xi said somewhat angrily.
He was clearly dissatisfied with Xu Nian’s previous expression.
"Not at all, it’s really not what you think, I don’t look down on Sister Hong because of her age. I just view Sister Hong as a respected elder sister, nothing more," Xu Nian hurriedly explained.
A misunderstanding had arisen by his side.
But it was also strange to say, these Yann sisters.
The older sister would push the younger sister forward, and the younger sister would push the older sister.
With their looks, any man they nodded at could be theirs.
Could there be some hidden secrets?
Xu Nian didn’t want to delve too deep; he was here just to save Sister Yanyun.
Yann Xi glanced at Xu Nian, and noticed that he did not seem to be pretending.
A rare, faint smile finally appeared on her unchanging face and she said, "You’re different from the usual men. Most men think about how to possess both of us sisters, yet you push us away. Since you’re giving up such a great opportunity, don’t blame me if you regret it later."
Xu Nian was at a loss for words.

Regret?
He might regret it!
But at least this way, he could be at peace with himself.
After all, a man who can’t even control his own desires doesn’t deserve to be a man.
"Xixi, you’re here, I’ve been looking for you."
Just then, a hearty voice came from afar.
Soon after, Xu Nian saw a handsome young man approaching from a distance.
Yann Xi’s expression turned cold again upon seeing the newcomer.
The young man also noticed Xu Nian next to Yann Xi, and his eyebrows instinctively furrowed.
In his mind, Yann Xi was not fond of interacting with any men.
She wouldn’t even bother to deal with unfamiliar men.
Yet now, she was walking side by side with a man.
This instantly stirred intense hostility in him towards Xu Nian.
However, this man was clearly more calculating, quickly putting on a smile and stepping forward to ask, "Xixi, who is this?"
"Nangong Qing, don’t call me Xixi; I’m not familiar with you," Yann Xi said coldly.
The young man’s brow furrowed instantly; he had always called her Xixi.
Back then, although Yann Xi was displeased, she simply ignored it, but today her reaction was so strong.
Could it be because of him?
Nangong Qing turned his gaze toward Xu Nian, his eyes filled with even more malevolence.
"This brother, are you Yann Xi’s younger brother?" Nangong Qing asked tentatively.
In his view, Xu Nian was so young, he definitely couldn’t be an Elite Disciple.
It was very likely that he was Yann Xi’s brother; if that was the case, he could try to ingratiate himself.
A slight smile appeared on Xu Nian’s lips.
This Nangong Qing, a typical hypocrite, was deeply calculating.
If Yann Xi were pursued by him, it would never end well.
"Ah, considering the help Sister Hong has given me, I guess I should help you out," Xu Nian said resignedly in his thoughts.
He didn’t want to cause trouble, but it seemed that it was no longer something he could avoid just by not wanting it.
Nangong Qing would definitely not let him go easily.
Rather than that, it would be better to strike first.
"Sorry to disappoint you, I am a newly promoted Elite Disciple of the Artifact Refining Sect and also Xixi’s fiancé," Xu Nian responded with a smile.
After speaking, he directly wrapped his arm around Yann Xi’s slender waist.
Nangong Qing froze, staring intently at Xu Nian’s hand, a surge of intense anger filling his eyes.
Yann Xi was also stunned; she had never expected Xu Nian to dare to embrace her waist.
Her entire body stiffened on the spot, as if electrified.
