The moment these words were spoken…
A dead silence fell all around, so quiet you could hear a pin drop. The atmosphere instantly froze, as if even the air had stopped flowing.
Everyone was stunned speechless by this sudden “explosive” statement??
As if struck by a bolt of lightning, their minds went blank, and for a long time, they could not recover.
This…
Was this their Ink Cloud Peak’s second senior sister—usually so aloof and reserved, like a secluded orchid in an empty valley, untouched by worldly affairs?
Their second senior sister—had she taken the wrong medicine?
Or was she possessed by some demon?
Was this still the second senior sister they knew?
This was just too…
Too damn explosive!!
It was even more shocking than the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, more intense than a magnitude-ten earthquake, more violent than ten thousand horses galloping!
The sheer amount of information was too much to bear.
At this moment, Lin Qianqian completely let herself go, no longer bothering to keep up the pretense of crying.
She instantly switched into gossip mode, her pair of stunning doe eyes sparkling with the light of curiosity, like two glittering obsidian stones…
Staring intently at Zhou Jin and Sun Yanran?
Her eyes were full of curiosity and excitement?
All that was missing was a handful of sunflower seeds to crack and munch on while she watched the show with relish.
She thought to herself:
“Brilliant!
Truly brilliant!
This gossip is way too juicy!
It’s so delicious you just can’t stop!
Sun Yanran really hid it deep—this move was absolutely 666 to the max! Today has really been an eye-opener!”
Zhou Jin’s eyes widened in disbelief, his pupils contracting sharply. His voice trembled slightly as he stammered:
“You… what did you say?
Second junior sister, you… you already have eight husbands?
When did this happen? How come I didn’t know?”
This news was even more shocking than hearing the sky was falling. For a moment, he couldn’t react, his mind blank, as if his soul had been struck by lightning.
Upon hearing this, Sun Yanran’s face turned even paler, and she became a hundred times more anxious than before, like an ant on a hot pan, desperately wanting to explain.
What she wanted to say in her heart was:
“Eldest senior brother, you heard wrong. There’s no such thing, really there isn’t!
My admiration for you and Master is like the endless flow of a great river, ceaseless and unbroken, as clear as the sun and moon.
My heart holds only you both, truly, there’s no room for anyone else!”
But when she opened her mouth…
It was as if controlled by some mysterious force, and she continued outputting uncontrollably, revealing the secrets she had long hidden deep in her heart, and even said with immense pride:
“That’s right!
Last time when you came to my bedchamber to give me a golden hairpin to confess your feelings.
My eight husbands were hidden behind the door, under the blanket, beneath the bed, in the wardrobe, in the shoe cabinet, behind the rocks by the hot spring pool, outside the window, and on the roof beam.
I merely acted a little coy with you and slightly blocked your line of sight, and as a result, your eyes saw only me. You were so silly, you couldn’t see anything else, could you?
Although for the sake of my reputation, I never held wedding ceremonies with any of them, they are indeed my husbands in every real sense!
For this, I’ve had no fewer than thirty abortions.
I just didn’t want to tell you all. After all, this kind of thing is too private, and I have my own difficulties too!”
When she said these words, she actually couldn’t control the trace of pride on her face?
As if showing off her charm, completely disregarding Zhou Jin’s feelings.
As soon as these words were spoken, Zhou Jin felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and his whole body went blank!
He opened his mouth but couldn’t say a single word for a long time.
The shock in his heart was indescribable—the amount of information was simply too explosive…
It severely shook his outlook on life and his values!!
The inner sect disciples around them, upon hearing these words, were also stunned one by one…
Their mouths hung open, their eyes wide like copper bells, their faces written all over with shock and disbelief.
“What did they just hear?”
“Second Senior Sister not only already has eight husbands?”
“But has also had over thirty abortions because of it?”
“Their worldview has been shattered!!”
Some of them even began to wonder if they had misheard?
Or if they were dreaming—otherwise, how could they hear Second Senior Sister casually reveal such a shocking secret?
Outside the entire Ink Cloud Hall, the air was filled with an indescribable awkwardness.
Inside the Ink Cloud Hall, the atmosphere should have been solemn and dignified, but it had turned strange due to the sudden bursts of shouting and cursing from outside.
Murong Mo, the usually stern and self-proclaimed immortal-like Peak Master of Ink Cloud Peak.
At this moment, he finally heard the piercing voice clearly—wasn’t it none other than his most doted-upon second disciple, Sun Yanran?
With a movement of his body, like a banished immortal, his robes fluttering, hands clasped behind his back, he displayed the bearing of a master.
With a gentle wave of one hand, a streak of flowing light flashed by…
The hall doors opened in response, the exquisite use of spiritual power revealing his profound cultivation level.
Zhou Jin and the group of inner sect disciples hurriedly bowed and saluted, calling out in unison:
“Master!”
“Peak Master!”
Their voices were uniform and orderly, carrying reverence and respect, echoing inside and outside the great hall, yet only further highlighting the strange atmosphere at this moment.
