Chapter 122 Is it coming for me?



Before the words were finished, Yue Fuguang saw a white figure rush in through one of the open doors of the main hall.

This...this...this is all it is after all?!

Before Yue Fuguang could even feel disappointed, the white figure suddenly changed direction.

"They're after me?"

"Little Bead, protect me!"

【Master, leave it to Little Pearl!】 Before the system could finish speaking, Yue Fuguang was instantly enveloped in a layer of almost invisible pale blue light.

Before the conversation between the two had even ended, the white figure was already in front of her.

With a loud bang, Yue Fuguang remained seated motionless in her position.

As the loud noise rang out, ripples spread across her body like waves on water; these ripples came and went quickly.

Those with poor eyesight might think they're seeing things.

Looking at the object that had crashed into them, it was bounced seven or eight meters away by the protective shield, where a snow-white... falcon lay!

It's the one that the Western Qiang presented as tribute to Emperor Mingxi.

Its snow-white feathers, tinged with gray, were scattered all over the ground after the impact, some even stained with blood.

Looking at this once thick-feathered, majestic falcon, it is now bald. As it flaps its wings and flies toward the moonlight, its already precarious feathers fall to the ground in a flurry!

The bird looked utterly miserable at that moment!

The bird stopped two meters away from the moon's shimmering light, its round, beady eyes staring at her. She actually saw a sense of grievance in the bird's eyes.

No, you bumped into it yourself, so what are you complaining about?

"Little Bead, is this idiot trying to scam me?"

Even if you were a 'criminal' in the past, there's no law to protect you here. If you hit her, it's all for nothing; she definitely won't take responsibility!

【Master, it's pretty obvious, it's trying to scam you! This thing may be a bit dim-witted, but it has a good eye; it immediately recognized your extraordinary nature!】

At the same time, the warriors from the Western Qiang who had been taking care of the falcons also arrived.

He carefully picked up the injured falcon, and seeing that its wing was injured, he quickly took out some medicine powder from his pocket and applied it to the wound.

He was muttering to himself.

"Little Pearl, what is this person saying? Is this silly bird still considered part of the Western Qiang? Do you think I should ask them for compensation?"

[Master, this person's words convey a similar meaning to yours; they want compensation from Da Yan.]

Trying to play the victim and accuse someone first? Then she'll strike first!

"Grandfather, why did this falcon fly over and crash into Fuguang? I don't think I've offended any guests from Xiqiang. Is there something going on behind this...?"

The rest remains to be seen; we'll have to see if the rulers and ministers of Dayan can deliver on their promises.

Before the Dayan ruler and his ministers could even speak, the man from Xiqiang, who always stood behind the Xiqiang prince with his head bowed, suddenly looked up at Yue Fuguang.

He spoke in his somewhat broken Dayan Mandarin, “Your Majesty the Emperor of Dayan, we, far away in the Western Qiang, have heard that Dayan has a new Junior Tutor. We wonder if this is the one before us?”

Standing beside Yue Fuguang, Emperor Mingxi, with a dignified yet slightly aloof air, said, "The Western Qiang National Preceptor has excellent eyesight. This is our Grand Tutor."

The man whom Emperor Mingxi called the National Preceptor of the Western Qiang continued, "I have heard that the Grand Preceptor of the Great Yan was born by divine decree and possesses boundless magical power, capable of moving mountains and filling seas. Is this true?"

Moonlight: Who? Who is spreading rumors about me? And claiming to have boundless magical power? Even the gods in heaven wouldn't dare boast like that!

"Little Bead, is this guy here to cause trouble? Does he think I'm some kind of mortal descendant?"

He doesn't seem like he's here to cause trouble; he seems more like he's here to die!

Emperor Mingxi laughed heartily, his words cold and indifferent, "Who did Grand Preceptor Tai Li hear these words from? You might as well tell me. I would like to ask that person in person what their intentions are in spreading such rumors about my Grand Preceptor of Dayan."

If they were to admit it today, these ill-intentioned fellows might actually make the Junior Tutor perform one on the spot.

Even without making such an unreasonable demand, they would use it as an excuse to attack and treacherously attack the Dayan Dynasty.

The Imperial Advisor, known as Tai Li, immediately chuckled and said, "Your Majesty need not be angry. Tai Li only heard about this from passersby on the way to the capital of Dayan Kingdom."

So I asked out of curiosity, please forgive me if there is anything inappropriate.

The prince of Western Qiang also stepped in to smooth things over, saying, "Yes, Your Majesty, our imperial advisor also heard about this and was curious, wanting to verify it."

The priests and sorceresses of Nanyue and Nanzhao also said, "Your Majesty, we also heard about this matter on our way here. Like His Excellency Tai Li, we would like to ask the Grand Tutor of Dayan for some advice."

Moonlight: A classic face-slapping scene! It may be late, but it arrives nonetheless.

These people are offering themselves up to her for free, letting her humiliate them. She feels like she's missing out if she doesn't try to win something in return.

After all, showing off also costs points, and she doesn't earn points easily.

System: When the host says that earning points is not easy, does he mean that you can earn points by lying down, sitting, and eating melons?

The Northern Li National Preceptor, who had been hiding in the crowd, saw his chance and jumped out, saying, "Count me in!"

Only the short, thin man who was supposedly a high shaman remained silent and did not intend to get involved.

"Little Beads, this is practically handed to us. I'd feel bad if I didn't take advantage of them!"

What in these mundane things could possibly catch the eye of its master?

"What do you think, how about we get some land to play around with?"

[Little Bead thinks it's a good idea. Master has his eye on that piece of land, I'll go get it for you.]

"No, no, no, you don't need to do it. Let them deliver it to us themselves."

Seeing that Yue Fuguang remained silent for a long time, the others couldn't help but ask, "Young Master Da Yan, are you afraid to accept the challenge because you don't want to speak?"

Yue Fuguang smiled faintly, "I was just wondering if you all have decided what you want to compete in? Is there a prize involved? Let me make it clear first, a competition without a prize is not worth my time."

"Control insects, control fire, command birds and beasts."

Listen to that, it's quite professional, and each person has expertise in a different area.

Tai Li said, "I wonder what the young master is proficient in? You may choose any one and have a contest with us."

Yue Fuguang walked down the steps step by step with her hands behind her back. "Fellow practitioners, since we consider ourselves extraordinary, there's no need to resort to these methods that any ordinary person could use, making ourselves a laughingstock! What do you say?"

The sorceress Wuyun from the Nanzhao Kingdom asked, "In your opinion, what should we compete in?"

A smile played on her lips, a hint of malice in it. "Is Young Master Yue afraid?"

The priestess of the Southern Yue Kingdom was an old woman named Ji Po. She also said, "Yes, Young Master Yue is still a child and doesn't understand these methods. We can understand that."

The Northern Li National Preceptor, Shuyang, said, “I think you are overthinking things. Young Master Yue is no ordinary person. How could he be afraid of these things? I think it is because we have not offered Young Master Yue a prize that satisfies him.”

Yue Fuguang watched their coordinated performance with neither joy nor anger. Their tacit understanding, their desire to put her on the hot seat, suggested they had come prepared.

"Little Pearl, do you think these people deliberately targeted me and the Great Yan? The Great Yan rulers and ministers didn't notice a thing. Their intelligence system is utterly useless!"
