Chapter 760: The Next Divine Paragon
"Hurry up, little founder! I want to see you standing beside the Founder's statue while in your uniform!" Yan Hara continued to urge him despite the weird looks he was giving her.
"Yuan, I suggest you give up and fulfill her wishes. She's one of the most stubborn people in this place, and she will bother you until you do it." Tang Zheng patted him in the back and said.
Of course, he also wanted to see Yuan standing beside the Founder's statue so that they can get a side-by-side comparison.
"I just need to wear the uniform, right? I will do it under one condition." Yuan suddenly said.
"What condition?"
"You will answer my question."
"That's easy! You can even ask for my three sizes and I won't refuse!" Yan Hara said in a prideful voice.
"Your what?" Yuan raised his eyebrows, as this is his first time hearing such a term.
Tang Zheng loudly cleared his throat and said, "Ignore her teasing. Anyways, if you have any questions, I will be happy to answer them even if you don't fulfill her request."
"Please! I am begging you! Look! I will even get on my knees and beg—" Yan Hara began lowering her body.
When Yuan saw this, his eyes widened, and he quickly said, "Fine, I will do it."
"Don't you have any sense of shame, Yan Hara? How can you beg in such a manner? To a junior, no less." Tang Zheng shook his head.
"I won't do this just for anyone! You have no idea how I feel!" She coldly snorted.
Sometime later, Yuan left to change his clothes.
When he returned, the three seniors were so surprised by his appearance that they had become speechless.
After wearing the Demon Sealing Clan's uniform, Yuan's aura changed significantly, and he looked even more like the Divine Paragon.
"I cannot wait!"
Yan Hara suddenly grabbed Yuan and flew directly to the area with the Divine Paragon's statue.
Tang Zheng and Senior Fu quickly followed.
Once they arrived, Yan Hara placed Yuan right beside the statue and said to him, "Stand right here for a minute."
"Okay…" Yuan nodded in a dazed manner, feeling like he was being treated as some sort of toy.
"Aaaaaah!" A sharp noise suddenly resounded in the area, causing everyone there to look at Yan Hara, who had just screamed.
They all wondered why she was screaming, but when they looked at Yuan, who she was staring at, they all understood why she'd just screamed.
Yan Hara is a renowned Divine Paragon fanatic in the Grand Library, and seeing someone who looks so identical to the Divine Paragon while also standing right next to his statue, it was only natural that she would go crazy.
In fact, when other fanatics saw Yuan standing right beside the Divine Paragon's statue, they also screamed like fangirls.
"Aaaah! It's the Divine Paragon!"
"What?! No way! He's really here!"
"Are you really the Divine Paragon?!"
"You look a little too young to be the Founder. Are you, by any chance, his descendant?!"
A crowd quickly gathered around Yuan and the statue, blocking Yan Hara's view.
Yan Hara began fuming when these random people blocked her view, causing her to release a powerful pressure that also carried a hint of killing intent.
"Get away from him! If you're going to watch, do it where you're not blocking others' view!"
The people there quickly scattered away from Yuan when they heard Yan Hara's angry voice and felt the threatening aura.
However, they didn't completely leave the area and decided to watch from a distance.
"Is he a gift from the heavens, or are they simply mocking us?" Senior Fu mumbled in a dazed voice as she looked at Yuan's face and the Divine Paragon's statue back and forth, and the longer she stared, the more she believed that they were the same person.
"I have heard of many rumors about doppelgangers, but I have never witnessed anything like that in my life until today." Tang Zheng sighed.
"Although he's a little young right now, in a few years, he will look even more like the Founder. When that happens, it will be as though the Founder has returned to us…" Yan Hara spoke as tears flowed down her cheeks.
The place quickly filled with murmurs.
Meanwhile, Yuan felt incredibly awkward. This situation made him recall his days in the Yu Family, when he was admired by countless people. The way these people looked at him like he was their savior, it brought back bad memories.
However, he didn't blame them, nor does he find any fault in their reaction, mostly because he was actually their 'Founder'.
"I have decided." Yan Hara suddenly said.
And she continued in a loud voice, "I, Yan Hara, will make it my life's mission to make you the next Leader of the Demon Sealing Clan!"
"What?!"
Tang Zheng and the others looked at her with wide eyes after her bold declaration.
"Yan Hara, I know you're excited and all because he looks like the Founder, but you're going a little too far here… You should calm down and rethink this." Tang Zheng said to her.
"I am perfectly calm! In fact, I have never been any clearer! He has not only the looks but also the talents to become the next Divine Paragon! I am sure of that after witnessing everything today!" Yan Hara said.
Tang Zheng could only shake his head at her words, as he knew that it was impossible to change her mind once she's in this kind of mood.
"Yan Hara, I know your feelings, but it's not going to be an easy task." Senior Fu said to her.
"I know, but it's not like I have anything else better to do. I have been getting bored as a lecturer, anyway." She shrugged.
"Bored…? You've only been a lecturer for four years…" Senior Fu said.
"Who cares about such minor details?" Yan Hara laughed as she approached Yuan.
"Little founder! I have some good news for you! I, Yan Hara, the most talented demon sealer in my generation, have decided to train you to become the next Divine Paragon!" She stood before him while surrounded by a prideful aura.
After hearing her words, Yuan only had one question for her.
"Why?" He asked.
