Chapter 256: Duel between Two Women

Unfortunately, all these were just the male disciples' wishful thinking. The phrase "time breeds affection," and "the nearest tower gets the moon" never crossed the mind of the concerned party, Ye Xuan. The Ice Moon Hall was spacious enough for two people to live comfortably. Ye Xuan resided opposite Nangong Yao, but they were far from actually "living together."

After moving in, Ye Xuan spent most of his time on cultivation—for such a favorable place, it would be a waste not to cultivate.

However, considering that Nangong Yao had an important fight coming up in a month, Ye Xuan naturally wanted Nangong Yao to win the duel and secure the Ice Toad Blood, which would enhance her cultivation.

Just thinking about it wasn't enough, concrete measures were needed. Nangong Yao might have had a high reputation in Xuanbing Mansion, but winning a duel relied on genuine skills, not on the number of people voting. To win, she needed to demonstrate strength superior to that of Zhuo Yanyun.
