Chapter 136: Losing Once More
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
A country bumpkin opening holding the hand of the grand Divine Constabulary's daughter, Chi Guyan, and furthermore, Chi Guyan had actually willingly allowed him to hold.
If this wasn't horrifying, then, what was this?!
Nobody could understand what had just happened. Because, everything happened too suddenly, and too quickly. They were simply unable to react.
Or, it could be said that the two seemed to have already discussed this well beforehand.
Could it be…
A thought rose up in the everybody's head.
This thought was crazy, but, it wasn't illogical.
If…
If this thought was true, then, all the inferences made by them before this were overturned. Because, if this was really the case, then everything seemed to be completely different.
Chi Guyan sent out a criminal demand order at the Heaven Dao Pavilion, and ordered to punish Lecher Fang Zhengzhi for forcefully unveiling Yun Qingwu's veil.
Wasn't this jealousy between a couple?
Then, when Fang Zhengzhi attained the River of Trust Capital examination double roll champion, and was invited to the great feast of the Divine Constabulary, Chi Guyan actually went down the mountain at this time!
Wasn't this longing between a couple?
And now, at the Divine Constabulary's great feast, inviting Fang Zhengzhi to sit at the main seat by citing meritocracy, this evidently was telling everybody in the world that they were one true pair?!
This was a forced engagement!
A force engagement set up against Chi Hou due to Fang Zhengzhi's status.
In front of the officials from the five capitals of the Northern Desert, and in front of all the scholars and youths, they were already in a true relationship. Under such circumstances, how could Chi Hou act in a hostile manner?
When they thought of this, everybody felt somewhat horrified.
Because, if things were really like this, would Chi Hou agree? Would the number one scholar in the world, Nangong Hao, agree? And how would King Duan feel? How would the emperor view this matter?
Nobody knew about these.
Because, this was definitely a powerful storm, furthermore, it was a storm that would destroy the peace and calm in the entire Great Xia Dynasty.
Chi Hou's expression became truly ugly.
Chi Guyan had always been his pride. Accessing Dao at four years of age, and solving the Illustration of All Creations at five years old, becoming the youngest pride of the Heavens in the Great Xia Dynasty's history.
At ten years of age, she rose up to first place in the Hidden Dragon Roll, at thirteen, she challenged the number one talent at that time, the first in the Rising Dragon Roll, Nangong Hao, then became the Double Dragon Roll Champion that shocked the entire Great Xia Dynasty.
How talented was this, how high was her status.
In addition to her extreme beauty, with a smile that collapsed nations.
It was a time when she was shining the brightest. It could be expected that in the future, even if Chi Guyan was married to the emperor's family, she would definitely become the queen.
Not needing to mention the princes from powerful families.
In the entire Great Xia Dynasty, which prince wouldn't be in admiration of Chi Guyan? If she picked one randomly… it still wouldn't result in picking a poor villager.
Even though…
Chi Hou felt that with the status of the Divine Constabulary, money and fortune wasn't important. But, when he actually saw the pearl in his palms being held by a poor villager.
No matter how he thought, it wasn't satisfying.
Definitely, the most important reason was, if Chi Guyan really wished to do as she pleased, even he, the lord of the great Divine Constabulary, wouldn't be able to do anything to stop her…
This was the real reason why he didn't look too happy.
Mrs Chi could sense her husband's feeling. As a mother, who wouldn't wish for her daughter to be happy. But, didn't this happiness come a little too suddenly?
She hadn't prepared for it at all!
Everybody felt that this was something that definitely couldn't happen. But what was the reality? This was exactly what happened, it was very sudden, but…
It was real!
Fang Zhengzhi naturally knew how people thought. He also knew that everybody, including Chi Hou, would likely have an urge to butcher him right now.
But, nobody moved.
This was the reality…
And this was the results Fang Zhengzhi wanted.
Chi Guyan had pushed him up high, hence, he had to use Chi Guyan to defend against this tempest, even though that would cause him to stand even higher.
That was looking at death in the eye, then being reborn!
In the entire venue, there was only one person's thinking that Fang Zhengzhi didn't know. That was Chi Guyan. He didn't understand why Chi Guyan would rather go along with him instead of killing him.
But, Chi Guyan had really done this.
Hence…
The next few steps were simply.
Life was a performance, and the time to rely on performing skills had come.
"I… don't agree!"
When Fang Zhengzhi led Chi Guyan beside the main seat, Chi Hou finally spoke. Ever since Chi Guyan was five, this was the first time he objected to Chi Guyan's decision.
"I side with your father lord!" Mrs Chi similarly spoke, but, her voice was much gentler.
"But we already have a promise!" Chi Guyan seemed to have already thought of this, hence, once Chi Hou and Mrs Chi voiced out their objections, she didn't even seem to be surprised.
"Promise? What promise?!" Chi Hou's face was filled with confusion.
From what he remembered, Chi Guyan had never interacted with this person called Fang Zhengzhi in front of him. Then where did this promise come from?
"Does father lord remember, eight years ago I went to the Southern Mountain Village? Furthermore, I had established a Hall of Dao there?" Chi Guyan continued to speak.
"What about that?"
"Eight years ago, I had already accessed Dao for a year, and believed that I wouldn't have any enemies among people my age, but… I lost to him!" Chi Guyan looked at Fang Zhengzhi.
"What?! How can this be possible?" Chi Hou instantly felt somewhat sick.
Not only Chi Hou, even the officials from the five capitals of the Northern Desert, and the youth scholars, all felt somewhat sick.
The number one talented girl in their eyes, the Chi Guyan who was almost the best in the land, actually lost to a village kid eight years ago? That time…
How old was Fang Zhengzhi?
He was only six or seven?
How is this possible?!
"I also felt that this wasn't very possible, but, I indeed lost… furthermore, because of this, I even lost my marriage!" Chi Guyan's tone seemed to contain some lament.
On the other hand, Fang Zhengzhi felt that if this girl didn't become a star actress, it really was a waste of her acting talents.
She was actually able to weave the truth and lies so perfectly, that was considered losing? Wasn't it just a kick in the butt?
Furthermore...
She still mentioned losing her marriage!
Wait a minute!
What is the meaning of losing her marriage?!
Fang Zhengzhi suddenly stared at Chi Guyan with his eyes round. Don't tell me this girl wants to marry me? Can Heaven not play such a prank? I can't take care of such a fearless girl.
"Losing your marriage?!" Chi Hou was evidently even more shocked than Fang Zhengzhi.
In an instant, he raised his hand up high, then, looked towards Fang Zhengzhi, and then looked towards Chi Guyan. Finally, he lowered it powerlessly.
On the other hand, the officials from the five capitals of the Northern Desert as well as the scholars stared at Fang Zhengzhi furiously. They had an urge to tear Fang Zhengzhi to pieces with their teeth.
He actually made use of a child's innocence to force a marriage?
This was intolerable!
"However, even so… I still made a condition. That was, he must defeat me another time within ten years, then, this promise would be considered valid!" Chi Guyan looked at Chi Hou's expression and added.
"Defeating you another time within ten years? Eight years ago… then, isn't there another two more years?!" Light flashed in Chi Hou's eyes, then, he suddenly began to laugh.
"Ha ha ha…"
At this moment, not only did Chi Hou laugh, even the officials of the Northern Desert five capitals and the scholars also laughed at the same time.
Defeating Chi Guyan another time within two years?!
Wasn't this the funniest joke in the world?
Who was Chi Guyan?
That was the Double Dragon Roll Champion, number one talented girl in the world!
Even though they didn't know what method of Fang Zhengzhi employ to defeat Chi Guyan eight years ago, but, it was simply a dream to even think of defeating Chi Guyan again within two years.
The time of two years, that was the time stated on the divine message, and at that time, not even mentioning the Fang Zhengzhi who was still on the Hidden Dragon Roll, even if he somehow entered the Rising Dragon Roll, it was still impossible for somebody to defeat Chi Guyan.
What was the Double Dragon Roll Champion?
That meant that among those below the age of twenty-eight, she was the best in the land!
If Fang Zhengzhi really defeated Chi Guyan within two years?
What did that mean?
Wasn't that telling everybody, he was the real Double Dragon Roll Champion?!
