Chapter 236 - I will Marry Her
In front of his wife, he indirectly admitted involvement with another woman, and publicly referred to another woman's brother and brother-in-law.
In any situation, this was undoubtedly a clear affair.
Even a Golden Immortal couldn't save him now, right?
Chainblade? A good ship?
Guo Fan, who had accidentally overstepped, had a stiff expression. His heart skipped a beat as countless scenes flashed through his mind, causing panic. At the very least, she wouldn't be like Sun Fen and attack him with her sword, right?
Guo Fan had already considered his next steps.
The biggest news reported by the Soul Haunt Ship the next day would probably be: Shocking! The Sword Singing Ranking rookie, Xia Shui, was torn to pieces by Eldest Senior Sister Yu Xu and Song Na, who then took his head and sailed into the sea, disappearing without a trace.
From then on, it would become an unsolved case in the Upper Central Realm…
After a few days, when the news spread, perhaps his palace would take revenge for him, declare war on Soaring Wisdom Sect, or be disheartened and leave with him, or he might hide from the world forever.
This was a real tragedy!
Could it be that his only option was to run away?
No, calm down, calm down. He was no longer that helpless person from back then. The situation was not uncontrollable. Song Na would not act as recklessly as Sun Fen. She was the face of Soaring Wisdom Sect, the candidate for the next patriarch. She wouldn't self-destruct. Under these circumstances, she wouldn't confront him openly!
After careful analysis, there was still a turning point in the situation!
He looked at Song Na without blinking, pretending to be very calm, while secretly observing her reaction in those few short breaths. Guo Fan's thoughts moved quickly.
Song Na was not Sun Fen. It was as if she had long heard about the scandal between Guo Fan and those women. But until just now, she had not questioned Guo Fan at all.
Moreover, her tone was very calm, even gentle. She didn't intend to denounce him, as if she was just asking an ordinary question.
After asking, she didn't do anything “overly” and quietly waited for his answer.
Guo Fan looked at Song Na and couldn't help but feel a trace of hope rise in his heart.
Maybe she was really just asking.
After all, Song Na was kind, generous, and tolerant. She wasn't jealous.
In this game, the first thing Guo Fan would think of was to seek help from his wife. The first was Fang Xiang, and the second was Song Na.
Fang Xiang was a Nascent Soul cultivator, and Song Na's role was due to her personality.
Although she appeared cold, she was actually gentler than anyone else. She was also a representative figure in the Orthodox Dao. If Sun Fen was a righteous person who hated evil and injustice, her external gentleness was too high and mighty. She treated everyone equally, like a Guan Yin who lowered her gaze, treating all living things without favoritism.
However, as the only successful attacker in the game, Guo Fan had a deeper understanding of Song Na's inner gentleness.
If not for this, Guo Fan wouldn't have made Soaring Wisdom Sect his second destination after visiting Night's Fall Sword City.
Although Yin Fen had entrusted Song Na with this task, if Song Na had the same personality as Li Xieren, Guo Fan wouldn't have gone to see her when he was still weak, for the sake of his own life.
After thinking for a while in this short moment, Guo Fan's heart finally settled. He couldn't panic. At least he had to trust his own judgment. Even Li Xieren was dealt with (though there was some luck in it), so Song Na had no reason not to do it.
That's right! From the beginning, she had been helping him when she said she was from Redwood High Academy!
Guo Fan finally understood.
He first subconsciously looked at Xiahou Cenyi.
The supreme elder looked at him with a faint smile, standing with his hands behind his back, silently observing.
Guo Fan was completely at ease.
Although Xiahou Cenyi was playful, she would never act recklessly and ignore the actual situation. She must be confident, which signified safety.
He steeled his resolve. Since he had already admitted it, he might as well say it out loud.
He would have to deal with the remaining characters sooner or later. If the mountain doesn’t come, he will go to the mountain. If the Night’s Fall Sword City, Blistook Pavilion, and Profound Yin Family joined forces, unless everyone else united against them, he would be practically invincible in Middle Continent.
At least… the possibility of using a chopping knife no longer existed.
Guo Fan coughed twice to clear his throat. His eyes fell on Song Na’s veiled face. He looked into her eyes and said, “That's right. I had an agreement with the Destiny’s Song Sword Cultivator. If one day… if she can defeat me, I will marry her.”
Marry? In other words, marry into the Blistook Pavilion?
Everyone’s expressions became somewhat strange… However, considering the fierce temperament of the Destiny’s Song Sword Cultivator, who had embarked on a long journey as soon as she emerged from seclusion, it seemed normal for her to be this powerful.
The significance of this word was so shocking that everyone overlooked the fact that Guo Fan's words actually contained more information.
However, some noticed that Guo Fan’s words indicated he had known about the Destiny’s Song Sword Cultivator for a long time. Moreover, since they agreed it was “able to defeat me,” it meant there was no way to defeat him in the past.
This implied that Guo Fan was even stronger than Sun Fen in the past.
However, because Guo Fan said it himself, it was somewhat doubtful. There was just a trace of doubt buried in his heart.
Chen Shang’s expression became even darker, as dark as the bottom of a pot. He gritted his teeth.
But then, a trace of relief arose in his heart. Since Sword Son had already made an agreement with Xia Shui, and there was an entanglement, their relationship must have been confirmed.
This way, Daoist Priest Song Na would definitely not have any relationship with him!
The true disciples of Blistook Pavilion suddenly felt somewhat relieved.
To be honest, the strength and potential that Guo Fan had displayed was very likely to surpass Song Na's position as the number one genius of the Sky Ranking in the future.
In other words, he was different from the others. He was a man qualified to have an equal conversation with Song Na. If Guo Fan pursued Song Na, it was very likely that he would succeed. Furthermore, the Soaring Wisdom Sect would not oppose it.
Additionally, Song Na’s unusual way of asking this question, which seemed like gossip, was also worrying. Although it could be seen as concern for an outstanding junior and his future opponent.
Everyone was in an uproar because of Guo Fan’s words. Song Na’s eyes remained calm. She nodded and said, “She came to you for this agreement. Did she win?”
Guo Fan shook his head and said, “She lost.”
Everyone was stunned, their eyes wide in disbelief.
Destiny’s Song Sword Cultivator… lost?
They only knew that the Destiny’s Song Sword Cultivator had declared war on Guo Fan on the award stage, but they weren’t clear about what happened before and after. They had naturally assumed that the Destiny’s Song Sword Cultivator won.
Only now did they realize that it was actually Guo Fan who won?
This way, the explosive news of “rookie Xia Shui marrying off the Destiny’s Song Sword Cultivator” that could have sparked much discussion was gone. It did not follow the usual pattern.
Song Na also did not react in time. For the first time, a stunned expression appeared on her face.
Guo Fan thought she wasn’t angry despite everything. As expected, she was not jealous. So he was delighted in his heart and coughed twice. In front of almost half of the sects in Middle Continent, he said, “So I will not marry her…”
“I will marry her.”
