"This is the most dazzling couple in the Divine Realm..."
Fairy Linglong could not help but feel envious when she recalled how Zhang Xuan brought Nie Lingxi and Luo Qiqi away.
She was born with extraordinary talent, and it was destined that she would have extraordinary taste as well. All along, she had hoped to find an expert who could surpass her and crush her completely so that they could be together.
Unfortunately, most of the monarchs were on par with him, and some were even slightly inferior. Even though some had expressed their love for him, none of them had taken a liking to him.
It was not that she was aloof, but that she wanted to pursue the romantic love of mortals. Even the top experts of the Divine Realm could not achieve that.
The Cloud Dragon Monarch, the Deathless Monarch, the Fushao Monarch, the Mystic Dark Monarch, the Qiankun Monarch, the Zhuoyang Monarch...
She knew them too well, and that was why she was not interested.
The Cloud Dragon Great Emperor was a playboy by nature, and his descendants were all over the heavens. The Deathless Monarch thought about suicide every day, as if he had nothing to live for and was not interested in women. The Fu Lao Monarch was rough and impatient, and lacked patience. The Qian Kun Demon Emperor was feminine by nature, and she did not like him. The Zhuoyang Great Emperor did not care about trifles, and was unrestrained and unrestrained. He was not the ideal type...
As for the remaining few, the one from the Sky of Heavenly Sword ignored everyone. The Heaven Subjugation Monarch was a pure man, and the Sky of Freedom was a woman...
No one in the same cultivation realm caught her eye. That was why she had been single until now.
But... which woman did not yearn for love?
Which woman did not want to have a super expert as her backing to support her in the future?
Even though she was a monarch, she could not achieve a pure man. Because of that, she could not sleep well at night.
She had nowhere to put her heart to.
That was why she felt envious when she saw how Zhang Xuan and the others were finally together.
It was a pity that they were not hers.
Suppressing such thoughts, she walked on the wide streets of Linglong Royal City.
It had already been more than a month since the wedding between Zhang Xuan and God Monarch Lingxi, but the lingering excitement of the event had yet to die down. It was still the talk of countless people.
After listening for a while, he walked into a spacious restaurant.
She had already disguised her face and strength, so no one could recognize her.
Sovereign Emperors did not always remain in their lofty palaces. Many times, they would take on the form of mortals and experience the emotions of mortals, the various emotions of life.
He ordered some dishes and sat by the window, savoring the taste.
Just as he was about to relax, a group of people walked into the restaurant.
"That's him!"
Accompanied by a low voice, the gazes of dozens of people gathered on a middle-aged man not far away from them.
It was a fat man with a rather stout body. Because his back was facing Yang Ling, Yang Ling could not see his face clearly.
As if he didn't know that these people were looking at him, he picked up the wine glass and slowly tasted it.
There was a portion of braised pork and a pork knuckle in soy sauce on the table.
"Surround them …"
After confirming their identities, the middle-aged man who seemed to be the leader of the group waved his hand.
Huala!
Dozens of people dressed in the same uniform surrounded the fat middle-aged man. Even before they made a move, the killing intent that was emanating from them had already left those in the surroundings trembling in fear.
"Friends, I have some matters that I need to attend to, so I hope that you can excuse yourselves for the moment. I'll be taking care of all the food and drinks for the day."
The middle-aged man who seemed to be the leader clasped his fist and bowed respectfully.
"Yes, yes! We'll leave right away!"
"It's the Shangguan Clan!"
"The Shangguan Clan?"
"Ever since Conferred God King Baiye Qinghong was killed, Conferred God King Shangguan Yunwan has become the strongest clan in Linglong Royal City. We mustn't offend them no matter what!"
"The strongest clan in Linglong Royal City? Who is that fat man? Why are they here to capture him? "
"I don't know about that, and we shouldn't know either. Let's hurry up and leave!"
…
Amidst the hushed discussions, the people in the tavern hurriedly fled the scene.
It was best for them to let matters that did not concern them, let alone the number one clan in Linglong Royal City.
Soon, the only ones left in the spacious tavern were the fat man and Fairy Linglong, who was seated by the window.
It had not been easy for her to find a place to rest, so there was no reason for her to leave.
"This friend over here, our Shangguan Clan has some matters to attend to, so I hope that you can leave now. Otherwise, it would be a huge loss if you were to get injured …"
Seeing that Fairy Linglong was not leaving, the middle-aged man who seemed to be the leader of the group frowned.
"I'm just passing by …" Fairy Linglong said as she poured a cup of wine for herself. However, before she could finish her words, the sight before her blurred. The fat man was already seated opposite her, and he passed a braised pork shoulder over. With a smile, he said, "Young lady, I think you should leave. It's a little troublesome for them to come looking for me, and they might even make a move on you. It wouldn't be good if they accidentally hurt you …"
Only when he came to the other side did he get a clear look. This fatty's face was filled with kindness. Although he wasn't very handsome, he had a unique charm.
"They are from the Shangguan Clan. Aren't you afraid?"
Fairy Linglong waved her hand, not taking the pork shoulder from Zhang Xuan.
With her eye of discernment, she could easily tell that the fat man's cultivation was only at high-tier God. Yet, he did not show the slightest bit of fear before the experts of the Shangguan Clan, and he even asked her to leave. Wasn't his mentality a little too strong?
"Afraid? What's there to be afraid of? "
The fat man replied proudly. "They're just a bunch of weaklings!"
Seeing how fearless the fat man was, Fairy Linglong's curiosity was piqued.
Shangguan Yunwan was a Conferred God King that she had conferred upon her. Even though she was unmarried, she had seven younger brothers, and the Shangguan Clan was a renowned clan in the Firmament.
This fat man was only a high-tier God, but he was actually so fearless. Where in the world did he get his courage from?
"You're courting death!"
Hearing those words, the middle-aged man's eyebrows shot up, and a cold glint flashed across his eyes.
"I don't know this young lady over here, and she has nothing to do with me. You can come looking for me, but don't make things difficult for her …"
Knowing that a fight was about to break out, the fat man placed the pork shoulder on the table before flinging his sleeves and standing up. He placed his hands behind his back and said nonchalantly.
Seeing how the fat man was still protecting her despite being in danger, Fairy Linglong couldn't help but praise him.
Putting aside whether he was in the right or wrong, at the very least, his magnanimity was far above those from the Shangguan Clan.
His valiant disposition was truly admirable.
At the very least, this was the first time she had seen such a person in her tens of thousands of years of life.
"Humph! You're the one we're looking for anyway. Attack!" the middle-aged man bellowed coldly, and his subordinates immediately made their moves.
In an instant, a barrage of sword qi enveloped the fat man.
There was no hint of panic on the fat man's face. Instead, a faint smile appeared on his face. His plump body was like a butterfly darting through a field of flowers, dodging all of the sword qi and encirclement attacks.
Peng peng peng peng!
With a series of dull thuds, dozens of middle-tier Gods collapsed to the ground. Every single one of them had sustained grievous injuries.
"What incredible battle prowess!"
Fairy Linglong nodded in approval.
With her eye of discernment, she was able to see through the situation of the battle.
The fat man's cultivation was that of a high-tier God, but the fact that he was able to defeat so many middle-tier Gods in such a short period of time was not due to his overwhelming strength but his battle prowess.
It was as if he was able to see through the flaws in everyone's attacks and counter them in advance.
It was precisely because of this that even though so many people attacked at the same time, they were unable to harm him at all. Instead, they were easily defeated.
"Don't get cocky!"
Seeing that his subordinates had been defeated so quickly, the middle-aged man's face warped in horror.
As soon as he exerted his strength, his cultivation was immediately revealed. He was a Half-God King!
In terms of cultivation and strength, he was far superior to the fat man before him. On top of that, his moves were exquisite, and it was clear that he had inherited the core heritage of the Shangguan Clan.
Huhu!
Before absolute strength, even though the fat man's battle prowess was high, he was still unable to hold his ground and was forced to retreat.
"Be careful!"
Fairy Linglong frowned.
She had a good impression of the fat man, so she did not want him to get hurt.
"Don't worry. Since I've said it before, you're just a weakling!"
The fat man laughed heartily as he suddenly took a step back. He picked up the pork shoulder on the table and took a bite. Then, a haughty look surfaced in his eyes. "Let me see just how powerful you are!"
After saying those words, he took a step forward. His heavy body was as imposing as a mountain.
"That's the spirit of a hero!"
Fairy Ling Long's eyes lit up. Her calm heart could not help but be stirred up.
She had thought that she would never be able to meet a hero again. She did not think that this ordinary-looking fat man would be able to remain so composed and courageous even when facing someone stronger than him.
This confidence was not something that an ordinary person could possess.
Under the pressure of the fat man's aura, the middle-aged man felt a little fearful. Eventually, he gritted his teeth and charged forward once more.
Peng peng peng!
After a few blows, the confident fat man was forced to retreat.
Confidence couldn't change the fact that he was lacking in strength.
"Audacious! How dare you make a move on me? Do you know who I am?"
After retreating a few steps, the fat man finally came to a halt with a haughty look on his face.
"Who are you?"
Seeing the fat man's expression, the middle-aged man was taken aback.
As powerful as the Shangguan Clan was, there were still many who dared not offend it. Take Baiye Qinghong for example. With a single mistake, her entire clan was wiped out.
"I am the butler of the world!"
The fat man stood proudly, as if he was standing outside of the world. "Making a move on me is equivalent to making a move on the Firmament. You are courting death!"
Hula!
With a flick of his wrist, a jade token suddenly appeared in his palm. It grew larger and larger, emanating an authoritative aura. It felt as if the heavens would descend upon them at any moment.
"This is … the aura of God Monarch Zhang Xuan?"
Fairy Linglong was taken aback.
She knew very well that the aura harnessed within the jade token belonged to none other than that of Zhang Xuan.
Could it be that the fat man whom she fancied had something to do with God Monarch Zhang Xuan?
Peng!
While she was still perplexed by the situation, the fat man who had taken out the jade token managed to gain the upper hand and severely injure the middle-aged man. With a sigh, he shook his head and said nonchalantly, "He's indeed a weakling …"
After he finished speaking, he put down the shoulder, clasped his hands behind his back, turned around and walked out, not taking a single cloud with him.
"This friend over here, please wait a moment …"
Fairy Linglong couldn't hold back her curiosity any longer. She stood up and asked, "May I know how I should address you, friend?"
"I am …"
The fat man tilted his chin up proudly, as if he would disappear with the wind at any moment. "Sun Qiang!"
"Sun Qiang?"
Fairy Linglong took note of the name. With a light chuckle, she looked at the table and said, "Your braised pork shoulder …"
"Hehe!"
Sun Qiang turned around and chuckled. "Your braised pork shoulder …"
Fairy Linglong's face reddened.
…
A year later, Fairy Linglong and Sun Qiang got married.
Fairy Linglong's insomnia was finally resolved.
