My Wife Is The Final Boss-Chapter 826 - 463: Xu Chang’an’s Significance to Wen Li (Double-Length)
Zhu Pingniang used to be able to talk about anything with Li Zhibai, but if it involved Li Zhibai herself... Zhu Pingniang looked around and couldn’t find a single close friend to give her some advice.
Even though Qinling and Miss Lu were close, discussing her fondness for a lady with them... Zhu Pingniang wasn’t that foolish.
So, after looking around, the most suitable candidate... turned out to be Xu Chang’an?
This guy’s lips were tight enough, and now he was willing to stand by her side. The key was that he was smart enough... and along the way, Zhu Pingniang was not afraid of embarrassing herself in front of him.
Zhu Pingniang massaged her forehead.
This kind of relationship where anything could be shared was called... a ’close friend.’ Like the bosom friends of girls.
But the problem was, Chang’an was a man.
Forget it, a man is a man, it doesn’t really matter.
Zhu Pingniang had just discovered a secret and was feeling chaotic inside... her mind was a mess, so she stopped reading further.
"Now Ah Bai is upset, so using my shadow... is quite normal." Zhu Pingniang rubbed her fingers, her gaze becoming much more serious.
"But... am I really the one who has just entered the Taixu Realm?"
Understanding that she had upset Li Zhibai and that Li Zhibai was having her Cloud Soaring Realm self abused by Wen Li for fun, Zhu Pingniang could understand.
However, as the proud Zhu Tongjun, she couldn’t help but feel somewhat dissatisfied...
Even though she knew purely in terms of talent she couldn’t compare with Wen Li, the monster, it didn’t mean she wouldn’t be Wen Li’s match if they were in the same era.
However you look at it, Li Zhibai was half a teacher, half a sister to her. In the earliest times, she could even be considered half a mother.
"Tsk."
On Muyu Peak, it seemed to be a tradition for the younger to defeat the older, but there was no other choice... Who asked these girls to have such high standards? With high standards, naturally, they could only look upwards.
In the end, Zhu Pingniang was unhappy and uncomfortable with Zhu Tongjun losing so badly.
It didn’t matter that she lost, but... it wasn’t just her face that was lost, it was also Ah Bai’s.
Because... she was taught by Li Zhibai herself. How could she lose so badly?
"...Even I don’t want to lose face," Zhu Pingniang watched Li Zhibai constructing the Taixu Realm ’Zhu Tongjun’ within the Inner Realm, her fingers rubbing each other lightly.
She certainly didn’t want to admit it was because she knew Xu Chang’an would also watch this footage... so she didn’t want to lose face.
Zhu Pingniang: "..."
Tsk.
It’s okay to admit it.
Of course, Zhu Pingniang didn’t want Wen Li to steal all the glory. Thinking about Xu Chang’an watching the trial and only seeing Wen Li’s prowess while she became the one being stepped on... would be too embarrassing.
If she really became a complete backdrop, Zhu Pingniang felt she would be embarrassed to call herself ’Sister’ in front of him for at least ten days... no, for a month.
And she still had some confidence in her Taixu Realm self.
Who knew at that time she was ’silent but tough,’ and showing Chang’an this form, Zhu Pingniang felt she could proudly pat her chest and say to Xu Chang’an, "Look, even I have serious and amazing times."
Zhu Pingniang had already completely forgotten she needed to put on makeup, now staring at the half-made-up face and observing the Inner Realm in the sky.
She knew, the real showdown was about to start.
The earlier ’Cloud Soaring Realm Zhu Tongjun’ was just Li Zhibai being angry and deliberately letting Wen Li vent, not even forcing Wen Li to use her True Sword.
If real data was to be collected, that certainly wouldn’t work, so... the Taixu Realm Zhu Tongjun next was the main event.
Zhu Pingniang looked at Li Zhibai’s calm expression and suddenly wanted to ask Li Zhibai whether she thought that her chances of winning were higher, or Wen Li’s.
Well.
Ah Bai would definitely say Wen Li had a higher chance of winning, after all that girl was truly a monster, and she was just a phantom, with her power set by Li Zhibai...
In this situation, it made more sense for Wen Li to win, since a phantom winning would have no meaning and would only undermine the confidence of her junior.
But... she still wanted to win.
Zhu Pingniang sighed lightly.
She didn’t want to lose in front of Li Zhibai and Chang’an, even if it was just an avatar.
Stretching lazily, Zhu Pingniang rested against the mattress, focusing all her attention on the Inner Realm, on this duel that was definitely going to be shown to Xu Chang’an.
Her gaze was serious.
——
——
In the Inner Realm, Li Zhibai was beginning to construct the shadow of ’Zhu Tongjun,’ and in front of her, Wen Li was meditating with closed eyes.
Li Zhibai could clearly sense that Wen Li’s energy was gradually rising; the consumption from the previous strike had already recovered, and during this time, Wen Li’s aura had climbed several peaks.
Was she... really this focused on the upcoming duel?
So was Tong Jun, even messaging her not to bully her. Why... just a phantom, Tong Jun really wants to win?
Li Zhibai blinked.
In retrospect, it was strange. Ever since they knew this trial was going to be shown to Chang’an, a trial that was originally insignificant seemed to have gained some inexplicable significance.
"Is it... that they didn’t want to lose face in front of Chang’an?" Li Zhibai vaguely sensed the other’s intention, chuckled, and shook her head.
They still didn’t understand Chang’an.
