Chapter 475: Chapter 134: Suddenly Surrounded by So Many Fangirls Right After Becoming Famous

"He Zhiqiu?"

"Who is that?"

"Senior Brothers and Sisters, you’re steward disciples, so it’s not surprising you’re unfamiliar with He Zhiqiu. He was the first place winner in this year’s Outer Sect Competition!"

"Is he the one who knocked off Senior Sister Chen’s flesh armor at the Rock Conference and collides daily with Senior Brother Cheng?"

"You all don’t know, Junior Brother He’s muscles are just... tsk tsk tsk, even I, as a man, am mesmerized!"

"Where is he? Let me take a look!"

"Senior Sister, he’s over there!"

"He’s over there!"

Tantai Mingyue’s words caused countless ripples, as many inner sect disciples from the other peaks hadn’t heard of "He Zhiqiu."

Hearing such astonishing feats from the Deputy Sect Leader caused them to be greatly shocked.

Many disciples from Divinity Transformation Peak immediately excitedly began introducing various achievements of He Zhiqiu, and then countless glances were cast towards the expressionless Qin Gengyun.

Qin Gengyun was not used to being watched by so many people for the first time, and it greatly conflicted with his low-key personality.

He could only try to maintain a composed expression, thanking the surrounding fellow disciples cheering and applauding him with cupped fists.

Meanwhile, Zhenyang Sect disciples had different attitudes towards him.

Disciples from Divinity Transformation Peak were very happy, as they shared the honor of being from the same peak.

Outer sect disciples from other peaks also looked on with admiration, as they were usually at the bottom of their peaks, seeing someone of similar status gaining fame, they regarded him as extraordinary and aspired to be like him.

Most inner sect disciples, however, were less convinced, with skeptical and disdainful looks, many thought he was just lucky.

When someone inquired, it suddenly became clear.

Turns out, the leader of He Zhiqiu’s team was Senior Sister Ye Xiyue!

That’s why, likely it was Senior Sister who severely wounded the Red Flame Fox, and He Zhiqiu just happened to finish it off.

With the sect suffering great losses now, they needed to promote a "grassroots" hero to boost morale, which is understandable.

This guy got lucky.

"It seems many aren’t convinced by my brother fighting off the Red Flame Fox alone?"

Liu Su looked around and noticed many with mocking expressions.

Mo Xiaolan sighed, "He actually prefers to stay low-key, being exposed like this isn’t his wish."

Qiu Zhihe remained silent, quietly observing Qin Gengyun.

He stood tall and robust, but his eyes revealed some unease.

Clearly, Mo Xiaolan was right, Qin Gengyun wasn’t accustomed to being the center of attention.

Husband, in the end, you are destined to reach the pinnacle. Getting used to the spotlight early might not be a bad thing.

I can’t accompany you to the end, but seeing your renown now brings some satisfaction.

Qiu Zhihe wore a proud smile, yet sighed softly in her heart.

Tantai Mingyue’s voice was infused with spiritual power, spreading far and wide, and soon the name "He Zhiqiu" echoed throughout not just Zhenyang Mountain, but all of Zhenyang City.

The residents of Zhenyang City excitedly discussed:

"Someone actually managed to fend off a Seventh Grade Demonic Beast alone?!"

"And an outer sect disciple at that? What an incredible genius!"

"Such power rivals the three current Fairies!"

"Let’s go, take a look!"

Countless residents from Zhenyang City swarmed towards Zhenyang Mountain; although the grand array at the mountain gate kept them from getting close, observing this prodigy from afar was enough. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Perhaps this He Zhiqiu might truly achieve greatness comparable to Ye Xiyue and Su Hongling, or even surpass them by ascending to the Immortal Realm.

Witnessing such a celestial presence now certainly wouldn’t be in vain!

Soon, the mountain gate was surrounded by residents from Zhenyang City, and He Zhiqiu’s name was repeatedly mentioned.

Seeing He Zhiqiu being celebrated by Zhenyang Sect disciples at the center, numerous men were in awe, and many women enamored.

"Wow!"

"So big!"

"So firm!"

"Oh dear, miss, the master’s muscles have been discovered by all these infatuated women!"

Seeing so many women staring directly at Qin Gengyun’s robust figure, Liu Su was startled, clutching Qiu Zhihe’s arm and exclaiming.

"Ouch! Miss, why are you hitting me? They’re the ones ogling the master! Ouch! Miss, I was wrong, I’ll never do it again!"

Qiu Zhihe withdrew her hand, her face frosted with cold.

The previously comforting mood turned complex.

She had been keen to see her husband gain renown, ascend to higher stations, thereby obtaining better cultivation resources, with hopes of ascension in the future.

But unexpectedly, his fame instantly drew so many shameless admirers.

Wouldn’t more women flock to him as his fame grows in the future?

As she pondered, numerous female disciples crowded around Qin Gengyun, surrounding him with their sweet calls of "Senior Brother He."

Qin Gengyun was equally caught off guard, surrounded by this swarm of admirer, instinctively looking to Qiu Zhihe for help.

Only to see his wife snort, turning away and ignoring him.

Ah, the wife is jealous again, this is going to be troublesome tonight.

Qin Gengyun was already thinking about how to appease his wife that evening.

At the top of the mountain gate, five elders stood together; Jian Yue watching Qin Gengyun besieged by many female disciples couldn’t help but chuckle.

The lord’s shy demeanor is quite adorable. Hey, Ye Xiyue, why don’t I take the chance and have him, maybe dual cultivation could expedite my recovery?

What do you think?

In the darkness of the sea of consciousness, a cold and peerless figure opened her eyes, filled with anger but constrained and unable to escape.

"Ye Xiyue, you hid away at Cloud Bamboo Mountain due to the Soul-devouring Pill back then, but now that I have garnered the trust of Qin Gengyun and Xia Qinglian, you want to come back?"

"Think again, do you even have my meanness? Besides being humiliated by them, what else could you do?"

"Ha ha ha, Ye Xiyue, you are nothing but a waste! Go back to sleep!"

The Demon Embryo cackled maniacally, the cold figure in the sea of consciousness struggled fiercely, but couldn’t escape, movements slowly weakened, finally closing her eyes and returning to slumber.

Jian Yue sneered inwardly, Ye Xiyue, stay asleep, wait until I’ve broken through to the Tribulation Crossing Realm, resolved the Soul-devouring Pill, killed Qin Gengyun and Xia Qinglian, third to kill will be you!

"Congratulations to Senior Brother Shi, such a pity, He Zhiqiu is a Divinity Transformation Peak disciple but shone brightly under Elder Ye’s leadership, some might say Senior Brother Shi doesn’t know how to nurture talents."

Wei Shouyuan nearby congratulated Shi Shuhong yet spoke with an odd tone.

Jian Yue’s expression remained calm, speaking evenly, "I also must thank Junior Martial Uncle Shi for nurturing such an outstanding disciple as Junior Brother He, I highly admire him and wish to acquaint more in the future, please grant me that."

With these words from Jian Yue, the four elders were taken aback, looking at her in disbelief.

Tantai Mingyue asked in surprise, "Xiyue, do you have feelings for He Zhiqiu..."

The leading disciples from each peak were stunned, turning to look at Ye Xiyue.

The always aloof and solitary Senior Sister surprisingly favored an outer sect disciple so much, could it be...
