Chapter 127 Yicheng Trial 8 Before him was also a beautiful female cultivator…
There was also a beautiful female cultivator in front of her.
Xie Jiaoyue felt that she had been lucky lately, with beautiful female cultivators coming up to her and striking up conversations from time to time.
It wasn't that she discriminated against male cultivators, but these male cultivators seemed to have picked up some of the bad habits of ordinary people, and always had a vague feeling that they were superior and looked down on her as their furnace cauldron.
Even though none of these people could beat her, she was still so confident.
But perhaps because they were of the same gender, the female cultivators were not affected by this foul habit. Most of the female cultivators treated her very well. Even her cousin, who used to try to steal her man, would come to warn her of the danger that was coming.
Xie Jiaoyue, brimming with confidence and blinded by greed, asked, "Why won't you let me in? Do you want me to keep you company, woman?"
"Although I already have Xingjin, I think Xingjin would not mind if I helped a heartbroken woman."
The beautiful female cultivator initially had tears on her face, but upon hearing Xie Jiaoyue's words, the only tear on her face fell to the ground, and she could no longer hold back another tear.
"You, you, you..." Just like Yang Yang, who was speaking to Xie Jiaoyue for the first time, the beautiful female cultivator cautiously took a step back. "I have already attained the Dao... Master."
This title doesn't sound healthy.
Xie Jiaoyue remembered that this beautiful female cultivator was the one who sat next to Gong Shiyu yesterday, and she seemed to be Gong Shiyu's concubine.
Although the three direct descendants of the Xie family strictly adhere to the monogamous system, even though the second wife of the second uncle's family has become somewhat obsessed, the second uncle has not mentioned finding another one.
But Xie Jiaoyue had been in this world for a long time, so she naturally knew that many cultivators kept concubines, regardless of gender, only distinguishing them by cultivation level, family background, and ability.
The reason is simple: cultivators are far more powerful than ordinary people and can do far more. High-level cultivators can easily move mountains and fill seas. When people have great power and influence, they are prone to having wicked thoughts. Having multiple wives and concubines is just a basic practice. In the early days, there were many who secretly used forbidden techniques to oppress others. It was only after the establishment of the Heaven and Earth Bureau that things gradually improved.
The reason things have improved a bit is simply because those with wicked intentions are no match for the Heaven and Earth Bureau. If they were, they would definitely not hold back.
Now that she knew the other party's identity, Xie Jiaoyue's attitude softened a bit. She couldn't help but think of her own mother, who had almost become someone else's concubine back then, so she naturally felt a bit of pity and closeness.
"Are you acting on your master's orders to prevent me from entering? Who is your master, Gongshi Yu?"
The young concubine bit her lower lip tightly, turning it a deep red color from its already pale state. Before she could even speak, her body trembled three times.
"Miss Xie, Fairy Xie, please don't go into the tower today, okay? I beg you."
When the concubine received this task, she was already in a bad mood. What did she have to do with it? She was just a small furnace, a lowly concubine who followed Gong Shiyu. How could she possibly stop Xie Jiaoyue?
Although I heard that Xie Jiaoyue was also a furnace cauldron cultivator, not all furnace cauldrons are the same. Just like Gong Shiyu and Qingyuan Sword Master are both male cultivators, how could Gong Shiyu possibly defeat Qingyuan Sword Master?
But she dared not disobey her master's orders.
Xie Jiaoyue peered into the tower, but after a long while she still couldn't see Gong Shiyu: "What did your master tell you? If I enter the tower today, how will he treat you?"
The concubine's lips were pressed even redder by her teeth, turning a deep, almost purplish red, as if they would be bitten through at any moment. She didn't speak, she just kept trembling.
Xie Jiaoyue asked, "Don't you want to talk? Will they hit you? Curse you? Block your meridians, make you endure inhuman pain, and then torture you? Or let others humiliate you?"
Xie Jiaoyue mentioned several more, and with each one, the little concubine trembled more violently until she was shaking like a leaf and could barely stand.
It seems that either is possible.
Xie Jiaoyue didn't say anything condescending like "Why don't you leave him?" She could already tell that the other party was also a furnace body, and probably didn't live a good life. His cultivation ability was also average. If he didn't have some luck, leaving one master would just mean being taken over by another master.
However, she would not let anyone delay her cultivation progress.
That scoundrel, Director Wan, clearly promised to give her the token of the Gongshi clan of the Eastern Region, but then he turned around and denied it, insisting that she actually come to the training ground and finish her training before he would really give it to her.
There were other conditions attached; she had to reach the Golden Core stage before going to the Eastern Region.
With a tight schedule and heavy workload, she couldn't afford to waste any time.
“I will definitely go to the tower today.” Xie Jiaoyue stretched out her hand. “I’ll give you two choices. First, come in with me. Second, you wait here until Gong Shiyu finds out and you will be punished by your master.”
Xie Jiaoyue's outstretched hand grew sore, but she still didn't receive a response from the concubine.
She didn't wait any longer and turned to leave.
They didn't go far, just walked around the tower.
The concubine panicked and ran over. If Xie Jiaoyue were to go in, she would probably lose half her life in the face of Gongshi Yu's rage today!
As she ran, the young concubine sensed something was amiss.
Xie Jiaoyue clearly wanted to enter the tower, so why did she leave? If she wanted to leave, why was she circling around the tower?
The tower has no back door, so where are they going now?
The young concubine was lost in thought when, in a moment of distraction, the person in front of her vanished.
She was so anxious she almost cried out, but then she discovered that a talisman had been stuck to her forehead, rendering her speechless.
The window on the second floor of the tower opened, and a head appeared beside the window with strands of long hair.
Amidst her cascading black hair, a white ribbon trailed down to her eyes.
"Hurry up and come up! Gong Shiyu is about to reach the first-floor window. If you don't come up soon, he'll see you!"
Upon hearing the mention of Gong Shiyu, the little concubine's brain instantly went blank. As if possessed, she completely obeyed Xie Jiaoyue's orders, using both hands and feet to climb directly up to the second floor along the white silk.
She had just reached the second floor and was stuck at the window before entering the tower when she heard two people talking below her.
Wang Qingshan said, "I think I heard someone talking outside just now. Could it be Xie Jiaoyue?"
Gong Shiyu laughed and said, "Maybe. Anyway, Xie Jiaoyue isn't in the tower. I've already notified all the disciples of Yicheng that if they find Xie Jiaoyue in the tower, they must tell me immediately. I'll use a little trick to get Xie Jiaoyue directly to the tenth floor of the tower. She'll definitely suffer a lot and beg me to rescue her."
Wang Qingshan couldn't help but ask, "Since Young Master Yu had already made plans, why did you still have Pianxian stop Xie Jiaoyue from coming in?"
At this moment, Pianxian was clinging tightly to their heads, not daring to utter a sound.
“You don’t understand. I saw it a long time ago. Xie Jiaoyue has a lot of unnecessary sympathy, and this emotion is the easiest to exploit.”
Tears welled up in Pianxian's eyes again, but Xie Jiaoyue smiled silently in front of her.
She does not deny that she has more compassion than Gong Shiyu.
Who among normal people is less likely to be a scumbag than a scoundrel?
She's a person, not a scoundrel.
