Chapter 91: Qing Chan
Shen Yianâs gaze flickered between Shen Muchen and Qing Chan, his eyes burning with intense curiosity.
In the original story, Qing Chanâs fate was truly tragic. She deeply loved Shen Muchen, even to the point of being somewhat submissive. She didnât dare to fight for or ask for many things just to stay by his side.
In order to find the elusive method of changing the fate of Shen Muchen, she listened to the words of the Weeping Old Man and ventured alone to Beyond the heavens, unaware that the demonic cult had already set up their Heavenly Net trap.
Qing Chan was captured by the cult, forcing Wanfa Zhenren to personally rescue her in Beyond the heavens. However, he was outnumbered and eventually died in front of Qing Chan.
The demonic cult had long ago planted a demonic seed in Qing Chanâs womb. With her fatherâs tragic death before her, the overwhelming resentment successfully activated the seed, turning her into the cultâs vessel. After using up her value, she was made into a corpse puppet after death, just like her father.
The story that followed was quite melodramatic. The plot continued well into the middle and later stages, with Shen Muchen still unaware that his master and beloved junior sister had died, until the Weeping Old Man brought their corpse puppets to cause trouble.
Upon learning this, Shen Muchen first cried, then raged, and finally went berserk.
In the three-against-one battle, the Weeping Old Man was nearly torn apart by Shen Muchenâs bare hands, leaving two corpse puppets to escape in a panic.
After burying Master Wanfa and his junior sister, Shen Muchen cried his eyes blind and his black hair turned as white as snow overnight. He hated the Demon Cult, hated God, and hated this world.
He became a demonic star, wanting to bring chaos to all living beings and destroy the world.
At this point, to save the world and all living beings, Gu Ruoyi and her protagonist team appeared.
After a brief battle, Shen Muchen was inevitably defeated. The protagonist team suggested sparing his life but stripping him of his powers.
Gu Ruoyi stepped forward and gave a kiss to him in public â which was a true act of defying fate. After that ,Shen Muchen successfully reformed himself and joined the protagonist team!
As Shen Yian recalled the original story to this point, his smile suddenly became a bit forced.
Why was he recalling these unpleasant details? None of this had happened yet â wasnât this tantamount to cursing others?
âWe...â Shen Muchen was at a loss, truly not knowing how to answer this question.
On the contrary, Qing Chan behind him couldnât even hide her red and hot little face with the thin gauze, and her fingers were hooked together helplessly behind her.
Taking a deep breath, Shen Muchen looked at the newlyweds in front of him with a hint of envy in his eyes, and said seriously: âI will give Achan a proper status.â
Brother, what a character!
Shen Yian suddenly felt like he had found his people.
So youâre a pure love warrior too!
If this situation continues, the Crown Prince faction might as well delist from the market.
But that limping old monk she met on her way back from her sect said he could...
âBig brother, weâre planning to go look at some furs over there, so we wonât disturb you anymore.â
Shen Yian smiled brightly, taking Ye Liyanâs small hand and preparing to leave.
He could sense that everyone was running out of things to talk about, and staying would only make the atmosphere awkward.
Those words were his act of goodwill. Whether Qing Chan listened or not, he would still leave a backup plan.
To avoid the original plot being recreated in another way, he certainly didnât want to find himself opposing Shen Muchen in the future under the pretense of saving the world.
If this couple could work out, he would be happy for them.
Giving a wedding gift and attending a feast wasnât bad, was it?
âAlright, weâll take a look at some earrings then,â Shen Muchenâs eyes flickered slightly as he nodded in response.
Having said what he wanted to say, he seemed to feel a bit lighter.
âAchan.â
âYour... Highness.â
Their eyes met, and Shen Muchen gently pinched Qing Chanâs reddened earlobe. âIâll keep my word. Iâll give you a proper status.â
He would do it, even if it meant giving up his position as Crown Prince, which was merely a title.
âQing Chan believes... Your Highness.â
Qing Chanâs voice trembled, and she couldnât help but glance at the backs of the departing couple.
The King of Chu was indeed different from the other princes, as His Highness had said. His abilities and strength matched his ambition.
On the other side, Shen Yian looked at Ye Liyan who was hesitant to speak: âIf you want to say something, just say it.â
âHusband, Liyan can sense His Royal Highness the Crown Princeâs love for Miss Qing Chan, but Miss Qing Chan seems very insecure, afraid to accept His Royal Highness the Crown Princeâs love.â
Shen Yian nodded: âThatâs right. Her love is so humble, to the point where she believes becoming a tool for my brother is her best destiny.â
âWhy is it like this...â Ye Liyan seemed to see herself in Qing Chan â her former self who used to overthink, who was extremely insecure because of her eyes.
âItâs a matter of mindset,â Shen Yian chuckled lightly, pointing at his own head.
For this kind of problem, only the person who tied the bell can untie it.
