Chapter 223 Yu Xuan's Double Standards
Upon hearing this, Yu Xuan smiled and said, "I'm very happy that you came... I will definitely win the competition and won't let you down."
Yu Qianling patted him on the shoulder and said, "Then you'd better do your best! I'm looking forward to a match with you! Don't lose!"
Yu Xuan's face showed a moment of surprise and disappointment, but he quickly grasped her hand and smiled, "Okay, I won't let you down!"
Perhaps it was because Yu Xuan's gaze was too intense, making even her palms feel scorching, that Yu Qianling unconsciously pulled her hand back. "It's about to start, you should hurry up and get ready."
"Okay, I'll head back now."
"Um."
After watching him leave, Yu Qianling clutched her wildly beating heart and muttered softly, "Why am I acting so strangely..."
"What are you muttering to yourself?" At this moment, Ming Cang and Nan Muyin also arrived.
"What brings you here too?"
"Knowing yourself and your enemy is the key to winning every battle. How could I, as your teacher, miss this opportunity?"
Ming Cang looked at Yu Xuan on the arena with some surprise, "Huh, why did you send him out first?"
Nan Muyin: "They probably want to gain personal points, after all, the allure of the Heavenly Dao Spirit Platform is considerable."
As the two were talking, a disciple from the Valley of Forgetfulness was thrown off the stage. Yu Qianling waved excitedly and cheered, "Go, Yu Xuan! Expose the Forgetful Valley!!"
The people from Xuanwu Palace looked at each other in bewilderment. Why was she shouting more enthusiastically than they were? Who exactly was the disciple of Xuanwu Palace?
Moreover, her "bold words" were quite hateful, and many disciples of the Forgetful Valley cast resentful glances at her. The disciples of the Xuanwu Palace were about to stop her when a soft laugh came from the arena.
"Alright, watch how I take them down!"
"??"
The disciples of Xuanwu Palace were stunned. Was this still the usually composed Senior Brother Yu Xuan?
Today, he was prepared to fight ten people one-on-one, so before going on stage he had instructed them not to provoke other disciples...
so.
What is he doing now?
Something's not right, something's definitely not right!
Everyone's eyes swept back and forth between the two, their gossip-loving souls burning brightly. However, Yu Qianling, the person involved, was completely unaware and was cheering him on with all her might.
Mu Tai, sitting in his seat, couldn't help but chuckle. "Hey, this rascal knows how to please her... But at this rate, when will he ever be able to bring the girl home?"
While the match was raging on the field, tensions were even higher inside another inn.
Yu Xian'er glared at Zhuo Yunce in front of her and said coldly, "Where did you take Xixi?!"
"Heh, naturally it's a place you can't find."
Just moments ago, she had only been in the shop selecting medicinal herbs when Ye Xi disappeared. After that, she received a communication jade slip.
Seeing her stroking the magical artifact on her wrist, Zhuo Yunze warned sternly, "Don't even think about calling for help. If you push me too far, that little girl's life will be in danger."
"So what do you want?"
Zhuo Yunze smiled and said, "Sit down and don't be angry. I just wanted to catch up with you, but you ignored me, so I had no choice but to resort to this."
"Oh? What do we have to reminisce about?"
Zhuo Yunce picked up a cup of tea and drank it down. "After all, we were once engaged, so there's some affection between us. I don't expect us to get back together, but at least I hope we can still be friends."
"Friends?" Yu Xian'er's eyes flickered slightly, and she sneered, "I can't afford to be friends with someone like you. Hand over Xixi now, or you won't be able to bear the consequences!"
Zhuo Yunze's smile vanished, and he slammed his hand on the table, roaring, "So what if it's the Nan family? Do you think my Zhuo family is afraid of them?"
"Arrogant idiot!"
Yu Xian'er straightened her robes and sat down, looking at the person before her who had become utterly unfamiliar, and sighed:
"Out of consideration for the long-standing friendship between the Yu and Zhuo families, I'm reminding you that Ye Xi is the young master of the Heavenly Sect. If they find out about this... the Zhuo family will surely be destroyed because of your foolishness. You should think about it carefully!"
Upon hearing this, Zhuo Yunze's face turned ugly. Knowing Yu Xian'er as he did, he had no doubt about the truth of her words and cursed Yu Xinyao for giving him such a bad idea.
I initially thought she was just an insignificant little girl, but I never imagined the power behind her was so terrifying. What if this matter really gets exposed...
The consequences would be truly unimaginable.
Zhuo Yunze loosened his clenched fingers under the table, concealing the murderous intent in his eyes, and chuckled, "Hehe, Sister Xian'er, I was confused for a moment. I'll have someone release her right away."
Yu Xian'er coldly said, "Send her here right now!"
"well!"
Zhuo Yunze nodded and walked out the door. He gave a few instructions to a few people and then came back. "Sister Xian'er, please calm down. Since you are so considerate of me, I should repay your kindness. I have received some information that I think you will find very interesting."
"What message?" Yu Xian'er asked, frowning.
A smile flashed across Zhuo Yunze's face as he said, "Your sister might not be dead yet."
"What did you say?!" Yu Xian'er's face showed surprise. Few people knew the truth of what happened back then; it was all just the Qingyue Sect's side of the story.
She firmly believed that her sister would never do something as inhuman as killing her teacher or friend.
A glint flashed in Zhuo Yunze's eyes as he reached out and poured her a full cup of tea. "Don't rush, have a sip of tea and let me explain slowly."
Yu Xian'er noticed his eyes flicker slightly, picked up her teacup, took a sip, and asked seriously, "Where did you get your information?"
“I heard about this by chance from an elder in my clan, and I believe it to be true.”
"Oh? How do you know?"
"Back then, the people of Qingyue Sect said that your sister and Cheng Rou jumped off the Soul-Binding Cliff to die together. But even after searching for so long, they couldn't find their remains. Maybe your sister is still alive."
