Chapter 52: A Hurt Glass Heart
The four cultivators flung aside by Feng Rong finally steadied themselves, staring in shock at the two sudden arrivals.
Even the silent Nascent Soul cultivator behind them frowned, eyeing You You before lazily cupping his fists. “So the celestial maiden has arrived. Greetings!”
“Who are you?” You You’s expression darkened. She’d been gone less than an hour, and trouble had already found them!
“I am Wang Xu, Elder of the Sword Peak of the Ni Guang Sect.” His tone dripped with false politeness. “We didn’t know a celestial maiden graced this place. Which one are you?”
“You You.”
“What?” Wang Xu’s eyes widened. “The celestial maiden who caused the Yuan Family Elder’s ascension? You You!”
She nodded.
Wang Xu’s face tightened. The four behind him exchanged glances, their arrogance dimming.
News of a celestial maiden ascending through a contract at Cheng Tian Pavilion’s Heavenly Chosen Ceremony had spread across the Immortal Realm. Sects had scrambled to investigate her, yet she remained a mystery—no known origins, only ties to the Yuan Family. None expected her to establish a sect in this backwater town.
Wang Xu studied her. Aside from striking beauty, she seemed ordinary—no spiritual energy, no aura of power. Either rumors lied, or this was an impostor.
Regardless, the Ni Guang Sect needed that spiritual vein.
“So it’s You You!” Wang Xu forced a smile, eyeing Feng Rong’s Nascent Soul-level cultivation. “The Ni Guang Sect oversees the Southern Immortal Realm. We welcome your sect here—but stealing our spiritual vein without notice is… improper.”
“Lies!” Lin Feng shot back. “Fengtian has no immortal sect! The land contract belongs to Shangyang’s Lin family!”
“What does a Foundation Building ant know?” Wang Xu sneered. “This territory falls under our domain. We’re educating you newcomers—unless you want to be known as thieves?”
“You—”
“Enough!” You You cut in, glaring skyward. “Stop the excuses. Want a fight? Then fight! Quit hiding behind cowardly words.”
Wang Xu flushed. “Since you’re stubborn…!”
He formed hand seals. A fiery formation erupted, spiritual energy surging as a roaring fire dragon shot downward—a full Nascent Soul strike.
“Master!” Ling Qi and others shielded You You.
Feng Rong moved to reinforce the protective barrier.
You You calmly mimicked a defensive spell from memory. A transparent barrier exploded outward, overtaking Feng Rong’s shield.
*Clang!*
The fire dragon shattered like glass, bursting into fiery sparks that rained down. Most hit Feng Rong’s barrier, but some bounced toward a white figure’s fluffy jacket—
*Sizzle.*
Burnt holes peppered the pristine coat.
The beast froze mid-lick, tongue hanging out.
( ̄△ ̄;)
Its… fur…!
The jacket it had tiptoed around in, cherished for mere minutes… ruined!
ROAR!

A mountain-sized bald beast materialized, molten mane whipping as it lunged.
“I’LL EAT YOU!”
┗-(▼皿▼#)-┛
God Transformation-level pressure crushed the five. Wang Xu coughed blood, defenses crumbling as lava-like tendrils seared his skin.
“GIVE BACK MY JACKET!” Wen Ze wailed, flailing them like ragdolls. “SO FLUFFY! SO PRETTY! WAAAAAH!”
You You: “……”
Feng Rong: “……”
Everyone: “……”
Well. That ended quickly.
