Chapter 99

The next morning, Xiao Zhan got up very early. Last night, he was scolded for a long time by Zhan Yanyan, who told him to be more restrained and not to flirt with young girls everywhere. She also informed him that the Zhan Valley would welcome more clan members in the coming days, including the previous generations, who would come to the Martial Pavilion to select secret manuals.

Although he was scolded by Aunt Yanyan, Xiao Zhan's mood was very good. He knew that Aunt Yanyan was jealous and very concerned about him. However, he felt quite depressed about the "mother-son relationship" with Aunt Yanyan and couldn't get into the right state of mind. Over the past eight years, Aunt Yanyan often appeared in the role of a mother, but facing such a beautiful woman, any normal man would not see her as a mother but as a dream lover. Xiao Zhan had no idea how to get into the right state and could only take it one step at a time.

Since his spiritual body was busy cultivating, the usual dream space cultivation had stopped. Xiao Zhan had little interest in the tedious process of refining his sword heart, so last night, after reciting the "Universal Breakthrough" seven hundred times, he went to sleep.

After leaving the small building, he practiced swordsmanship for a while as morning exercise. After breakfast, Xiao Zhan decided to go to the War God Hall to copy the two sets of secret manuals that his future father-in-law had specifically requested, and then select a batch of fist and palm techniques.

The number of young men and women in the Zhan Valley had increased several times compared to yesterday. On his way, Xiao Zhan was very low-key. He activated the concealment function of the War God Armor to avoid attracting attention with his extraordinary constitution. After waiting by the lake for a short while, he boarded the boat to the small island in the middle of the lake, enjoying the gentle waves and the company of a group of beauties.

It was already past the hour of Chen (7-9 AM). There were many small boats on the lake, most of which were heading to the Martial Pavilion to select secret manuals, while a small part were leaving the island. There were more than ten people on the same boat as Xiao Zhan. Although they were not as charming as the members of the "Xiao Alliance," they were still considered beauties.

Among the more than ten people, the youngest was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and the oldest, though not apparent from their appearance, could be inferred from their conversation to be over thirty. At first, they were chatting with people they knew, but then someone said, "Have you heard? All the top ten beauties of our generation were taken by someone yesterday."

This statement immediately sparked gossip among the women. The youngest girl exclaimed, "That's outrageous! Which uncle or older brother broke the rules and did something so scandalous?"

Sitting in a corner, Xiao Zhan was sweating. "Please, no uncles or older brothers, no scandalous behavior. Those women are all older than me."

Then a young beauty in a green robe said, "The news is true. I heard it too, but it wasn't an uncle or older brother. It was a little boy, even younger than you. He's incredibly bold, even daring to tease the crazy girl Tian Mi, causing her to go berserk and chase after him!"

"What! Tian Mi is a lawless person, having cultivated her father's 'Great Annihilation Cycle Technique.' She's a real freak, reaching the Nirvana Realm at sixteen, with combat power at the first level of the Heaven-Breaking Realm. Many people predict that she will soon become the top demoness of our generation. To dare to bully her is like courting death!"

"I heard from the older generation that the little boy is lawless, beating up Tian Mi badly and even raping her. If it weren't for her Immortal Martial Set, she might have been raped by that little boy."

"Too arrogant!"

"Heaven! No way, that's so explosive!"

"Ha! That arrogant little girl Tian Mi finally met her match. Now she has no face left."

Xiao Zhan, sitting on the side, was speechless as the gossip grew more exaggerated. "Rape? I just touched her butt. How can they exaggerate so much?" He could imagine Tian Mi's reaction when she heard such rumors. She wouldn't let him off easily. It seemed he needed to stay in the War God Hall for a while to avoid the storm until her anger subsided.

Soon, the boat docked. As soon as they landed on the island, the youngest beauty suddenly exclaimed, "Oh! There's a man on our boat. How did I not notice him earlier?"

Hearing this, the others realized it and looked at Xiao Zhan with surprise. The young beauty in the green robe, with wide eyes, excitedly said, "I've never seen him before! It must be that little boy!"

Xiao Zhan didn't bother to explain. He used the "City-Enchanting Dance Step" and activated the enhancement function of the War God Armor, disappearing in the blink of an eye, leaving the more than ten beauties stunned.

At this time, the restrictions on the island had been lifted. Xiao Zhan rushed into the Martial Pavilion in a few breaths and headed for the fourth floor. To his surprise, there were only a few people lingering in the library, with no one else around.

The fourth floor library didn't have martial arts manuals but mostly literature and art books. Few people came here. Frowning, Xiao Zhan was about to enter the hall with the War God portrait when a familiar voice stopped him. Curious, he followed the sound into a library.

"I've told you, it's impossible between us. Please stop纠缠ing me, okay?"

The voice was gentle, like a clear stream flowing through the heart. Standing at the door, Xiao Zhan saw a beauty in a white dress, holding a book about cuisine, frowning and turning to face a persistent man.

She was Li Rou, the top beauty of the Zhan Clan's current generation.

Her appearance and demeanor were as gentle and elegant as her voice. Even when she frowned, she was incredibly beautiful and captivating.

"Rou'er, as the top beauty of our generation, you can't find a suitable husband in the Zhan Clan. Although I can't make you fall in love with me now, once I break through to the Immortal Martial Realm, my talent and constitution will awaken more of my bloodline power, and I will definitely be able to be your husband."

The speaker was a young man about 1.8 meters tall, exceptionally handsome, described as graceful and charming. After speaking, he blocked Li Rou's path and laughed confidently, "Rou'er, you can't really be interested in that little boy, can you?"

Li Rou frowned, displeased, "So what if I am? My affairs are none of your business. If you have nothing else, please step aside."

Zhan Tianyu frowned, "A little boy who hasn't even grown up, how can he compare to me?"

Hearing this, Xiao Zhan, standing at the door, gritted his teeth. This guy was not only trying to steal his girl but also belittling him. It was outrageous.

Li Rou said calmly, "I have no interest in you. Even if you reach the Immortal Martial Realm, it's impossible between us."

Zhan Tianyu's eyes turned cold, and he laughed coldly, "Is it because of that boy? Humph! Stealing my Feiyan and Jingyao was bad enough, and now you're even trying to steal her. I'll make him understand that not every woman can be touched."

Li Rou frowned, "Zhan Tianyu, you're almost thirty. What's the point of bullying someone younger than you?"

Zhan Tianyu sneered, "You know he's a little boy, yet you still chose him."

Li Rou said calmly, "In the Zhan Clan, women choose men regardless of age or race. He made me fall in love at first sight, and he feels good. So I chose him."

Zhan Tianyu's face darkened, and his anger flared. Looking at the calm Li Rou, he gritted his teeth, "I'll make you realize how wrong you are. I'll beat him every time I see him until he can't stay in the Zhan Clan."

"Who's so arrogant, wanting to beat me every time they see me?"

Li Rou was about to speak when a teasing voice suddenly sounded. Her eyes lit up, and she looked towards the door. Seeing Xiao Zhan step in, her face lit up with a smile, and she swayed towards him.

"A Zhan, why are you here at the Martial Pavilion?"

Seeing Li Rou's joyful expression, Xiao Zhan felt extremely pleased. Recalling her confession, he boldly grabbed her hand, ignoring the already livid Zhan Tianyu, and said with deep affection, "Rou'er, you're so beautiful! From now on, be my woman."

Feeling a current pass through her hand, Li Rou's blood surged, and her cheeks turned red. Her chest heaved with excitement and shyness, making her look incredibly alluring. Not only did Xiao Zhan's eyes widen, but even Zhan Tianyu, who was glaring, felt a surge of jealousy.

At this moment, Li Rou felt a wave of joy in her heart. Her body had already chosen him, so why not give her heart to him as well? Her alluring body was incredibly powerful, with innate charm that could reach the fourth or even fifth realm without cultivation. If she didn't seize this opportunity, she would end up alone. This was also a chance to cut off Zhan Tianyu's fantasies and stop his纠缠. With a shy smile, she nodded, "From now on, Rou'er is A Zhan's woman. I hope A Zhan will treat me well."

Amazing! So amazing!

Xiao Zhan felt as if he had drunk honey, his heart filled with sweetness and satisfaction. What was most important for men in the Zhan Clan? It was their constitution. A strong constitution not only made a man exceptionally talented but also made countless Zhan Clan beauties fall in love at first sight and offer themselves. Being handsome or having high cultivation was meaningless if it didn't make a woman fall in love at first sight.

Trying to steal my girl? You're not even close!

Seeing the affectionate couple, Zhan Tianyu was furious. His Nirvana Realm cultivation flared, and he pointed at Xiao Zhan, almost shouting, "Boy! How dare you touch my woman! Let go of your dirty hands, or I'll make you regret it!"

Before Xiao Zhan could respond, Li Rou, with a furious expression, shouted, "Zhan Tianyu! This is the Martial Pavilion, where fighting is forbidden. If you cause trouble, you'll lose your access to the Martial Pavilion!"

Zhan Tianyu didn't expect to be scolded by Li Rou. His breath caught, and he hesitated. Entering the War God Hall was imminent, and losing access to the Martial Pavilion would have serious consequences. However, seeing his rival, he was enraged. This boy had already stolen his girls several times and now dared to do it in front of him, which was intolerable.

"Boy! You wait, this isn't over!"

With a furious expression, Zhan Tianyu left.
