Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes - Chapter 571 - 558: I Think I Can Convince All the Elders
While speaking, Cen Yunzi also turned to look at Shen Han.
“There’s no need to hide anymore; you know why I summoned you here today.
I can be very direct with you.
We Peak Masters look down on you; you are not worthy of my junior sister.
Whether you accept it or not, you are just a toad.
If you attempt to attach yourself to the Divine Bird, disturbing its cultivation, don’t blame us for taking action.”
Upon hearing this, Dean Tianyi’s brow instantly furrowed.
“Peak Master Cen, I find your words somewhat incomprehensible.
Your mention of taking action, what does that imply?”
Cen Yunzi did not hide and explained directly.
“Action means action; it starts with verbal persuasion, but if he remains stubborn, we old folks have our methods too.”
Cen Yunzi was very direct, with no hint of concealing his threat.
And upon hearing this, Dean Tianyi’s expression completely turned cold.
“Peak Master Cen, please watch your words and actions. Though the swords of your Xiaoyao Peak are sharp, I am not to be underestimated.”
For a moment, the originally harmonious situation turned somewhat tense.
“Dean Tianyi, as long as you manage your disciple well, such issues will not arise.
Currently, there are rumors everywhere.
If you were in my position, Dean Tianyi, you would make the same decision.”
Before coming to Xiaoyao Peak, Dean Tianyi had anticipated this.
It was because he had anticipated this that he advised Shen Han on the way.
As they spoke, the Junior Master that Liu Xilan went to invite had arrived.
In total, five people came, making six with Cen Yunzi.
These six, together with Shi Yuezhu, all came from the same lineage.
That is, the current Sect Leader of Xiaoyao Peak.
Many people thought that the Sect Leader of Xiaoyao Peak had long died.
For the past twenty or thirty years, almost no one had seen him.
But in fact, this old Sect Leader is still alive.
It’s just that his lifespan is nearly exhausted, like a lamp running out of oil.
He has been in secluded cultivation all these years.
If he could advance one more step, he could extend his lifespan by a hundred years.
But at his realm, let alone one step, even a half-step is difficult.
The few senior brothers and sisters of Shi Yuezhu landed on the ground, their eyes fixed on Shen Han.
Among the six senior brothers and sisters, except for Cen Yunzi and Gu Simin, it was Shen Han’s first time meeting them.
The few of them glanced at Shen Han, each with furrowed brows.
“Senior Brother, is it him? Is this the Shen Han?”
In response, Cen Yunzi nodded.
“Apart from looking slightly handsome, there doesn’t seem to be anything remarkable about him.
And you, what makes you think you’re worthy of my junior sister?”
This person was several times more direct than Cen Yunzi.
In front of Shen Han, he belittled him with his words.
Beside him, Liu Xilan cast a sympathetic glance.
This is just the appetizer; later, Shen Han would face countless doubts.
And facing the questioning, Shen Han had yet to respond.
In the distance, Shi Yuezhu had arrived.
“Junior Sister greets Senior Brothers and Sisters.”
Landed on the peak.
After those words, Shi Yuezhu turned directly to Shen Han without any hesitation.
“Did Senior Brothers and Sisters make things difficult for you?
Didn’t I tell you to tell me earlier…”
Worry hung on Shi Yuezhu’s face, and at this moment, her hand was holding Shen Han’s hand!
The few senior brothers and sisters were already angry, and seeing this scene made them even more furious.
“Stop!
No wait… let go!”
Nervously, Cen Yunzi even misspoke.
Gu Simin was even more anxious, directly stepping between the two, separating Shen Han and Shi Yuezhu.
“Shi Yuezhu! What’s going through your mind! Are you crazy!”
The few Peak Masters of Xiaoyao Peak gasped for breath, looking around.
After a while, they finally exhaled slightly.
“Luckily, luckily there’s no one else here.
Otherwise, who knows how these rumors would spread!”
Shi Yuezhu’s initiative startled not just the few senior brothers and sisters.
Even Shen Han didn’t foresee it.
Shen Han was doing his best not to affect her.
Unexpectedly, Shi Yuezhu was braver than he imagined, completely unafraid of those rumors.
She acted according to her heart.
Beside him, Liu Xilan was also taken aback.
She never thought that Junior Master Yuezhu would do this for Shen Han…
There’s no need to say more about Dean Tianyi; he was completely bewildered.
He always thought the rumors between Shen Han and Shi Yuezhu arose from Shen Han’s one-sided approach, causing the rumors.
That’s why he said those words to Shen Han before, saying Shi Yuezhu would be angry.
That Shi Yuezhu would refuse to see him.
But now, looking at it, refusal…
How could she possibly refuse…
In his heart, Dean Tianyi even unconsciously admired Shen Han a little.
For actually winning Shi Yuezhu’s affections.
“Senior Brothers and Sisters, Junior Sister is no longer a child.
She has her own judgment on her matters.
Please, respect her decision.”
Without waiting for the senior brothers and sisters to speak, Shi Yuezhu spoke first.
Her words indeed made sense.
She wasn’t a child; she naturally had her own judgment on who she liked.
But it was obvious the few didn’t listen.
“Junior Sister, setting aside respect for the moment.
The future of Xiaoyao Peak will eventually be in your hands.
With your current irrationality, before talking about respect, please tell us, how can we trust you?”
“Today, all of us are here. Convince us.
No need to convince everyone, just getting half to agree with your decision is enough.
Then we won’t say another word.
You must understand, Junior Sister, that you represent Xiaoyao Peak in the future, not just yourself!”
Shi Yuezhu wanted to argue further.
But this time, Shen Han stepped forward: “I think I can persuade the seniors.”
