Chapter 871

Upon hearing this, Zhao Luoran softened slightly again.

She looked at Zhao Qinglian and Zhao Fengwu:

"Why must you both follow this boy?

Don't you believe what I've said?

This boy caused great harm to our Zhao Family in his past life."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Qinglian and Zhao Fengwu sneered again.

How could they not know Xu Chen was the main villain?

But they simply liked Xu Chen.

Who cares if he's hero or villain?

So what if we want to follow him?

In this life, Xu Chen poses no threat to the Zhao Family.

Why are you, Zhao Luoran, fixating on this nonsense?

Thus Zhao Qinglian coldly said:

"Sister, our affairs don't concern you.

As a junior sister, you have no right to control our freedom."

Zhao Fengwu nodded and said:

"Besides, I've already betrayed the Zhao Family—not because of Xu Chen.

But because I am of the Demon Clan."

"Hum!"

With that, Zhao Fengwu once again revealed her Demon Clan True Body.

Instantly, the aura of the Phoenix surged continuously.

Wild energy swirled and radiated around them.

Once again, it left everyone stunned.

Especially Zhao Moqing, who was utterly speechless.

There was a Demon Clan spy within the Zhao Family?

And it was the exalted Phoenix, no less.

Damn, this absolutely must be reported to the Soul Clan.

It was simply too shocking for him.

Even Zhao Luoran was momentarily stunned.

One of the future heirs of the Zhao Family Heavenly Secret Pavilion—

was a Demon Clan Phoenix?

That was just insane.

Zhao Luoran sighed: "You revealed this because of Xu Chen?"

She vaguely felt the cost was too high.

Extremely high.

This would inevitably bring Zhao Family's pursuit.

Zhao Fengwu was in trouble.

Zhao Fengwu shook her head:

"For Xu Chen, I'd do anything.

What's a Phoenix True Body, really?"

Zhao Luoran fell silent.

In that moment, she realized something different.

That Zhao Qinglian and Zhao Fengwu truly loved Xu Chen.

And to the point of madness—even self-sacrifice.

Otherwise, given Zhao Qinglian's nature,

she wouldn't be speaking to you so calmly now.

Zhao Qinglian was famously tyrannical and unreasonable.

Thinking this, Zhao Luoran gritted her teeth.

Hmph! Scumbag.

If you weren't so handsome and so kind,

how could you possibly have won over Zhao Qinglian and Zhao Fengwu?

In the end, it's all your fault, Xu Chen.

You're the one, bastard.

So Zhao Luoran turned to Xu Chen and glared fiercely again.

As if to say: Scumbag, say something!

Xu Chen: "..."

Xu Chen saw Zhao Luoran's furious gaze.

He was utterly baffled.

Why the hell is this lady staring at me like that?

What did I even do just now?

This is truly absurd.

He couldn't help but speak:

"Senior, look, isn't everything explained clearly now?

I came this time only to pass the trial; let's just follow the rules, okay?

I really don't want to be involved in anything else, nor do I care about those things."

Zhao Luoran snorted coldly:

"No way. No matter what you say, you're tied to the Zhao Family.

If not for you, how would the two senior sisters have ended up like this?

You must bear responsibility; how can you dismiss it so lightly?"

Xu Chen: "......"

Damn, it really is tied to him.

So you won't stop unless you find some excuse, right?

He frowned: "Then what do you suggest we do?"

He wanted to see how Zhao Luoran would respond.

Everyone watching this scene at that moment.

Immediately began clicking their tongues in amusement.

Not bad; now is the time to watch Xu Chen's joke.

Because they realized Zhao Luoran was far too determined.

She was just going to confront Xu Chen and cause him trouble.

Showing not the slightest sign of wanting to help Xu Chen.

Ah, this is truly satisfying.

Asked like this, Zhao Luoran was instantly stunned.

Yes, she had been confronting Xu Chen for so long; for what?

To make Xu Chen unhappy, or to make herself unhappy?

Wouldn't it be better for her to just seclude herself and cultivate properly?

For a moment, she felt slightly lost herself.

Xu Chen saw Zhao Luoran not speaking.

His face instantly went blank with confusion.

Big sister, speak up, will you?

You're confronting me without any purpose?
