Chapter 1095 1096: Yao Mei'Er's Scheming
Xiao Tianyu felt very frustrated. Including today, he had only met this rumored Demoness twice, and hadn't even exchanged many words, yet why was this Demoness targeting him?
Although Yao Mei'Er seemed to speak casually, was it really unintentional?
Moreover, this statement absolutely could plunge a person into endless abyss, simply because Yao Mei'Er is the most beautiful woman in the Eight Domains, waiting for him alone has surely attracted countless enemies.
Especially Zhan Tianhao, his murderous intent towards Xiao Tianyu was not concealed at all.
Yesterday, Xiao Tianyu killed his brother Zhan Cang right in front of him, and today Yao Mei'Er stated she waited for him for an hour. The dignified Demon Sect Saintess, who else would Yao Mei'Er ever wait for?
Perhaps only Xiao Tianyu.
"Demon Fairy must have chosen wrongly. Xiao Tianyu isn't ranked on the list, he's a nobody. What qualifications does he have?" Zhan Tianhao coldly snorted towards Yao Mei'Er.
Swish swish~
Many people's eyes turned to Zhan Tianhao.
When Zhan Tianhao said this, people weren't surprised because yesterday's incident shocked the entire Heaven-Refining Ancient City. His brother was killed yesterday, and the person who killed his brother was Xiao Tianyu.
"I think Zhan Tianhao's words make sense. A man of no reputation, I really don't know what qualifications he has to make the Demon Fairy wait for him. Is the Fairy's judgment so low?" Mu Wushuang spoke indifferently as he eyed Yao Mei'Er.
Now, several prodigies on the Wind and Cloud List were present, each one more outstanding than Xiao Tianyu. Even though Xiao Tianyu had some talent, blocking Zhan Tianhao's formidable power yesterday was just a step. In a real battle, could Xiao Tianyu be Zhan Tianhao's opponent?
This, was simply impossible.
Yet such a person, Yao Mei'Er actually announced to everyone she waited for him for an hour, wasn't this a slap in the face to these top-ranking prodigies?
"That's not entirely true!" Yao Mei'Er stood in the Celestial Wave Pavilion, her beautiful eyes looking down on everyone, speaking with a gentle smile: "Though I emphasize that guests must have unparalleled talent and abundant skills, it's more important to have a unique heart. That's why I think Xiao Tianyu is different from the others!"
While speaking, Yao Mei'Er glanced at Xiao Tianyu, making him feel quite bewildered. This woman knew clearly that he had already arrived, yet she claimed to have waited for him for an hour; obviously, she had ulterior motives.
"Brother!" Qiao Ling'Er seemed energized, making a playful face at Xiao Tianyu, "It seems you have an extraordinary place in the Fairy sister's heart. Don't disappoint me today!"
"You talk too much!" Xiao Tianyu tapped Qiao Ling'Er's forehead, "Not everything is as innocent as you think. Do you really believe Yao Mei'Er has any good feelings towards your brother?"
"Then what?" Qiao Ling'Er pouted.
"Perhaps your brother offended her in some way yesterday, so she said this to teach him a lesson through others' hands. Do you truly believe Yao Mei'Er doesn't know I've already arrived?"
"Brother, you're overthinking it!" Qiao Ling'Er expressed disbelief. Although Yao Mei'Er seemed to exude infinite charm to her, there have never been any rumors about her. With such a character, do you need to doubt her?
"Your experience is shallow!" Xiao Tianyu said indifferently.
Is it really like this? Qiao Ling'Er found it hard to believe.
On the other side.
"Young Master Xiao is already here. It was my oversight; I apologize!" Suddenly, Yao Mei'Er softly smiled at Xiao Tianyu, radiating charm.
She continued, "In that case, let the music gathering officially begin!"
"How could the music gathering proceed without me!" At this moment, a cheerful voice rang out, turning everyone's gaze. Just then, a dazzling young man strode through the air.
"It's Duan Jiutian, renowned as the elegance of the Broken Sword, Arrow Piercing Nine Heavens!" Many exclaimed upon seeing him.
Indeed, the visitor was Duan Jiutian.
He landed before Xiao Tianyu, flashing a gentle smile: "Brother Xiao, long time no see!"
Xiao Tianyu slightly nodded, giving a modest smile, full of humility.
Then, Duan Jiutian eyed Yao Mei'Er in the Celestial Wave Pavilion and continued: "It seems to me that I am merely an ordinary guest in Demon Fairy's eyes!"
The implication of this was obvious; he had arrived before the music gathering, proving he was just an ordinary guest.
Upon hearing, Yao Mei'Er responded to Duan Jiutian with a fist salute and a gentle smile: "Young Master Duan is too modest; who doesn't know Young Master Duan's charm, how could Young Master Duan be an ordinary guest in my eyes!"
Duan Jiutian smiled slightly, saying no more.
Yao Mei'Er continued, "It seems everyone has arrived. Among those present, some are prodigies from the Wind and Cloud List. I have long admired them, especially hosting this gathering in appreciation, and you all grace me with your presence. With such noble guests, let the musical gathering formally begin!"
As Yao Mei'Er finished speaking, the space fell silent, seemingly waiting for her to present a challenge.
However, some still remained unimpressed.
Tap tap tap~
The sound of clear footsteps suddenly resonated, only to see Xiao Tianyu turn away, leaving Qiao Ling'Er bewildered.
"Brother, where are you going!"
"This place is too dull!" Xiao Tianyu said indifferently. He had agreed to come with Qiao Ling'Er, but hadn't committed to participating in the musical gathering; moreover, Yao Mei'Er's words had greatly displeased him.
"..." Hearing this, Qiao Ling'Er was speechless.
"Young Master Xiao, why leave? Doesn't my presence please you?" At this moment, Yao Mei'Er in the Celestial Wave Pavilion softly smiled at the departing Xiao Tianyu.
Swish swish~
Many eyes landed on Xiao Tianyu, wondering if leaving now was disrespectful to Yao Mei'Er?
"What a boring person!" Someone in the crowd snorted: "Demon Fairy waited specifically for this person, yet he lacks gratitude and shames her publicly. Who does he think he is, a famous figure on the list? Ridiculous!"
"If this person feels ungrateful, why should Demon Fairy care? Moreover, I believe he's not worthy of the Fairy. Just now, the Fairy waited for him for an hour; what a waste of time!"
"..."
Xiao Tianyu's departure quickly sparked a series of mocking remarks around him.
Xiao Tianyu ignored it all, continuing his leisurely walk.
How arrogant!
Yao Mei'Er eyed Xiao Tianyu's back, her beautiful eyes flashing with a hint of displeasure, though it was fleeting, unnoticed by anyone.
But it's no surprise, for Yao Mei'Er is regarded as the perfect woman in the hearts of all young men, and she would not ruin her image.
Moreover, she enjoyed the glory of being adored by many.
What about those top nine on the list? Ultimately, aren't they all under her skirt?
It's simply her skill in hiding it, giving a pitiful impression that evokes a strong urge to protect.
