1316 Zhan Wuya, Do You Want to Be a Coward? (2)
Sheng Xiao touched his nose awkwardly as he said to Yu Huang, “I’ll give Ye Qingyang a hand.” Then, he left.
Zhan Wuya found it even more unreasonable when he saw Sheng Xiao and Ye Qingyang getting along so harmoniously.
What was going on with these three people?
Yu Huang walked to Zhan Wuya’s side slowly. After Yu Huang glanced at Sheng Xiao and Ye Qingyang’s busy figures, she said softly, “When Ye Qingyang was on the Undead Continent and absorbed the power of the phantoms, he suffered a backlash. All these years, he had to endure the pain of the phantom flames roasting his entire body at midnight and noon. After I used my psychic power to successfully help him destroy the phantom flames, Ye Qingyang was very grateful for all I did, so he always thought of ways to repay me.”
!!“Besides, he awakened the Netherworld Phoenix beast form. Before I was pregnant, he was the only Netherworld Phoenix beast form in the world, so he was very lonely. After knowing that I was pregnant and that I had two children with the bloodline of the Netherworld Phoenix in my stomach, Ye Qingyang felt a sense of kinship.”
Yu Huang turned around and faced Zhan Wuya with a sad expression as she said, “Mr. Wuya, Ye Qingyang once witnessed the entire Ye family being killed. He has had enough of the feeling of loneliness, so he longs for kinship. Can you understand? He’s not interested in me romantically. He treats us as family.”
“To be precise, he treats the babies in my stomach as family, so he wants to treat us well and watch the babies be born safely.”
After Zhan Wuya heard Yu Huang’s words, he finally calmed down.
“I’m sorry. I lost control of my emotions just now and spoke too harshly.” Zhan Wuya also realized that what he had just said was a little despicable.
Yu Huang shook her head. “It’s fine, Mr. Wuya. You must have felt very confused.”
Even if she couldn’t hear Zhan Wuya’s thoughts, Yu Huang knew that Zhan Wuya must be confused. Zhan Wuya was smart, so under normal circumstances, he wouldn’t have said such childish things. He must have been so confused that he spouted nonsense.
For some reason, when he heard Yu Huang’s gentle voice, Zhan Wuya suddenly had the urge to confide in her.
He tightened his grip on the battle spear in his hand and hesitated before saying, “Actually, I took leave this time to return to the War God Clan to… break off the engagement.”
Upon hearing this, Yu Huang said calmly, “As expected.”
She had long expected that when Zhan Wuya found out the truth and saw Zhan Jianxue’s true colors, there was a high chance that he would break off the engagement. However, Zhan Wuya hadn’t done anything these few months, so Yu Huang thought that Zhan Wuya didn’t intend to break off the engagement.
Unexpectedly, he still decided to break off the engagement.
“Mr. Wuya, what are you conflicted about?” Yu Huang asked considerately.
After Zhan Wuya squatted down and picked up a tree branch, he drew on the beach, but his eyes were fixed on the undulating sea as he said in a low voice, “I was raised by my mentor. After his eldest child passed away, Zhan Jianxue became my mentor’s only child. My mentor being willing to marry her to me is the greatest trust and recognition of me. But I…”
Zhan Wuya shook his head with a dejected expression.
“Although I don’t have anyone I really like, I also have expectations for marriage and family. Although I don’t have any feelings for her, the kindness she showed me back then still touched me. In addition, my mentor has nurtured and taught me all these years. After careful consideration, I agreed to this marriage. After all, instead of finding a female of similar strength to marry in the future, it’s better to find a girl who is devoted to me and has good conditions in all aspects to marry. But…”
Zhan Wuya smiled bitterly. “But you also know how hypocritical and cruel Zhan Jianxue is. The bone she gave me was actually cruelly cut off from Senior Xiaoya. It’s true that she loves me, but her love has already become distorted and she has lost her morality. I can’t bear such love, nor can I accept it.”
“As long as I think about how Zhan Jianxue hurt Xiaoya, who should have lived a happy life, because of me, I feel guilty.” Zhan Wuya turned to look at Yu Huang with eyes filled with confusion and pain. “Yu Huang, tell me, what should I do?”
Since Zhan Wuya had asked, Yu Huang didn’t intend to brush him off.
After Yu Huang pondered for a moment, she said, “You want to break off this marriage. The only thing you’re conflicted about is that you can’t bear to hurt your mentor’s feelings. After all, your parents abandoned you. Your mentor nurtured and taught you wholeheartedly, allowing you to become successful and obtain your current status and reputation.”
