Chapter 679 Abusing the Scum, Multiple Identities Exposed [2 Updates]
"..."
Cheng Yuan had never felt his world had ever been so quiet.
The name Feng Xiu seemed to have taken away all other sounds.
The smile on his face gradually froze, and he stared blankly up at the sky.
I felt like I'd been struck by lightning; my brain just shut down.
"What are you standing there for?" Feng Xiu glanced at him with his hands behind his back. "Call me Grandmaster."
This time, Cheng Yuan's legs genuinely went weak.
He knelt down with a thud: "Shishishishi..."
Cheng Yuan stammered for a long time, unable to utter a complete form of address.
Ying Zijing paused, pressed her head, and said with a hint of helplessness, "You scared him."
Feng Xiu felt no psychological burden whatsoever, and said slowly, "If I don't scare him a little, he'll think he can be my senior uncle."
Junior Sister?
The dream was quite good.
"Master, Grandmaster!" Cheng Yuan finally called out. He wiped his sweat, still trembling with fear. "Master, I swear, I absolutely did not mean that."
"Alright, I know you don't understand." Feng Xiu helped him up. "Anyway, just remember this: you don't have a junior sister, you only have a grandmaster."
Cheng Yuan: "..."
That's heartbreaking.
"I'm leaving now." Ying Zijin pulled down her hat brim to block out the sunlight. "It's been a long time since I've been out in the fields, I'm going for a walk."
Feng Xiu glanced at Cheng Yuan.
Cheng Yuan immediately understood and followed to protect them.
Xie Huanran is dead. Apart from Feng Xiu, Cheng Yuan has the highest level of ancient martial arts cultivation.
He glanced at the building ahead: "Grandmaster, are you going to the dungeon of the Court of Justice?"
"Okay." Ying Zijin nodded. "Let's go take a look."
The Xie family's top combatants have all been killed.
Some people commit crimes, but not crimes punishable by death, though other punishments are still inevitable.
The court has always handled matters fairly.
Madam Xie was imprisoned in the dungeon.
Her eyes were lifeless, and she had long lost her former air of a noblewoman.
When Mrs. Xie saw the girl, her eyes finally focused.
She lunged at the iron bars, her eyes bloodshot: "Ying Zijing! You're not dead! You're actually alive!"
"Why is it that my Nian Nian is dead, but you are not?! Why?!"
"Xie Nian died because of her numerous evil deeds." Cheng Yuan's expression turned cold. "She killed so many people; she deserved to die!"
Xie Nian had been a tyrant in the ancient martial arts world for years, and the Liu family was destroyed because of her.
"Killed so many people?" Madam Xie's eyes were filled with resentment. "A bunch of lowly people's lives are not worthy of being compared with my daughter's."
In the world of ancient martial arts, strength reigns supreme, and fists speak louder than words.
Those who were killed by Xie Nian can only be described as being less skilled.
"Your daughter's life is a life, but other people's lives aren't?" Cheng Yuan sneered. "Madam Xie, you really have double standards."
He turned his head, swallowing back the word "Junior Sister" in time, and lowered his voice: "Grandmaster, let me see you out. There's no need to let someone like this spoil your mood."
Ying Zijing raised her hand: "Let me say a few words to her."
Although Cheng Yuan was puzzled, he stepped aside.
"What do you want to say to me?" Madam Xie asked with a contemptuous expression. "I've already said I won't talk to you. Kill me if you want. Anyway, my husband and daughter are both dead, so there's no point in me living."
"Madam Xie, the Xie family's eldest elder lied to you," Ying Zijing said calmly. "Do you know why your son suddenly fell into a coma?"
Mentioning Xie Yu, Madam Xie's face became even more ferocious: "My son is unconscious because you refused to marry him!"
They all underestimated Ying Zijin, thinking she was just an ancient doctor.
If Ying Zijin had been killed back then, the Xie family would never have ended up like this.
"Your Xie family has been in the ancient martial arts world for so many years, and in every generation, quite a few people have indiscriminately killed innocent people." Ying Zijing lowered her head and chuckled. "Do you really think there won't be any karmic retribution?"
Madam Xie was suddenly stunned: "What...what do you mean?"
“He has a strong destiny and is a rare genius in ancient martial arts. Such a person is an excellent candidate to ward off disaster.” Ying Zijin’s voice was cold and distant. “The sins of this generation of the Xie family have all backfired on him.”
“There are some things that your Grand Elder did not lie about. If I marry Xie Yu, I can help him share this part of the karma. If he bears less, he will naturally be able to wake up.”
Ying Zijing said casually, "Let me think, before Xie Yu, there must have been innocent people in your generation who died tragically, right?"
"No...no no no!" Madam Xie cried out, her face deathly pale. She shook her head desperately, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth. "I don't believe it...I don't believe it!"
"Of course, the Xie family's eldest elder is not qualified to decide who will be chosen to take the blame," Ying Zijin continued. "Xie Yu was chosen by Xie Huanran."
"Do you know why Xie Huanran chose Xie Yu? It's because Xie Nian complained to him before, saying she didn't want Xie Yu to steal her reputation as a genius."
"Madam Xie, this is the daughter you love so dearly."
Each revelation of the truth completely crushed Madam Xie.
"No! Ah—no, no!" Madam Xie screamed as if she had collapsed. "I don't believe it! I don't believe it!"
Ying Zijing straightened up, not glancing at Madam Xie again: "Let's go."
Cheng Yuan was also shocked: "Is such a thing really true?"
"Hmm." Ying Zijing said calmly, "Xie Huanran told us everything before he died."
"That's really despicable." Cheng Yuan gasped. "I've met Xie Yu before. He was a true genius, and he was ruined by Xie Nian."
Ultimately, Xie Yu is the most innocent party in this matter.
According to the records of the judicial hall, Xie Yu never killed a single person, which is inconsistent with the arrogant style of the Xie family.
A refined and gentle gentleman.
“He has been sent to the fifth ancestral home, where Mr. Chuan is helping him recover,” Ying Zijin said. “The Xie family has been destroyed, Xie Huanran is dead, the cause and effect have been eliminated, and it is still possible for him to wake up.”
Cheng Yuan nodded: "That's good news."
**
Ying Zijing left the dungeon and returned to the bedroom that Fu Yunshen had prepared for her.
She turned on the modified computer in Sinai and successfully connected to the World City's network.
Without an internal internet license, the World City's intranet would never be open to the seven continents and four oceans.
[Pupil scan in progress...]
[Identity verification complete!]
Welcome, dear beginner. The system has detected that you have not yet selected a department. Please select the department you wish to join.
Ying Zijing narrowed her eyes, looking at the names of dozens of departments on the screen.
Sinai used her privileges to help her get a spot as a student at the research institute.
In the City of the World, the Research Institute is another major power besides the Jade Family and the Leinger Family.
But both the Yu family and the Leinger family need to rely on the research institute.
After all, all the advanced technological products in the world city are produced by research institutes.
Furthermore, the research institute is directly under the jurisdiction of the Sage's Institute.
Among them, two academies hold the highest status.
One is the Institute of Biological Genetics, and the other is the Institute of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering.
The two academies have supported the technological and cultural development of the entire world city.
Her former mentor, Simon Grand, was a graduate of the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering.
Ying Zijing tapped her fingers on the keyboard and clicked on the School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering.
Although she was more interested in biological genes, the Academy of Engineering could provide greater assistance for the successful development of the space carrier project.
It must be admitted that she still has a lot to learn in science and technology.
[Assessment Date: July 24]
Please arrive at the exam on time.
Ying Zijing clicked "confirm," shut down her computer, put on her coat, and got up to leave.
Meanwhile, in the world's city, inside the research institute's admissions office.
With a "beep," the new student's information was immediately transmitted onto the suspended 3D blue screen.
The administrator looked up and almost spat out the water.
These days, even junior students have the audacity to sign up for the Academy of Engineering's exams.
The administrator glanced at Ying Zijing's information.
19 years old.
Sure enough, a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger.
However, this junior student is actually quite good-looking.
The administrator took a sip of water, stopped looking, closed the window, and opened a live stream.
In the live stream, a young woman is assembling a laser weapon newly invented by the research institute.
It's very popular, with comments popping up frequently, and there are also quite a few large gifts.
One wealthy individual spent ten million dollars in a single transaction.
Above the live stream screen was the young woman's name.
Beryl Leinger.
Putting aside Bier's exceptional abilities, the very surname Lyinger was enough to draw other residents of the World City to watch her live stream.
Administrators are no exception.
He was engrossed in reading when his gaze suddenly stopped.
Why did he feel that the junior student who had just signed up for the engineering academy exam looked a bit like Miss Bi'er?
No, it should be Miss Bi'er who resembles that beginner student.
But it lacked even a fraction of the spirit of that novice student.
It's like a low-budget version.
It must be an illusion.
How can a junior student who hasn't even officially entered the research institute compare to a young lady from the Lyinger family?
Beryl Lengle is one of the rising stars of the research institute.
The administrator shook his head, suppressing his absurd idea, and continued watching the live stream.

Ancient Martial Arts World
With Xie Huanran's death, the dark cloud hanging over the ancient martial arts world dissipated.
However, the strength displayed by Fu Yunshen and Ying Zijin in the battle against Xie Huanran made other ancient martial arts practitioners very wary.
With Xie Huanran dead, these two more people have appeared.
This is something no one wants to see.
Why should the ancient martial arts community respect two outsiders?
So, at the suggestion of the Lin and Yue families, a petition was handed to Feng Xiu.
A group of ancient martial arts practitioners also arrived at the Judicial Hall.
He knelt down before Feng Xiu.
"Senior Feng Xiu, this is our petition with ten thousand signatures." The leading martial artist respectfully handed over a document. "Senior Feng Xiu may not know this since you just returned, but these two are not native residents of the martial arts world."
"Their existence has disrupted the balance of the ancient martial arts world."
"Please, Senior Feng Xiu, make the decision to expel them from the ancient martial arts world, and in order to protect ordinary people in the secular world, cripple their internal energy!"
Below are tens of thousands of names, along with bloody fingerprints.
They all earnestly requested Feng Xiu to rid the ancient martial arts world of this scourge.
"Please, Senior Feng Xiu, eliminate these two for the sake of our ancient martial arts world."
"Yes, Senior Feng Xiu, you haven't been back long and don't know how much damage these two outsiders have caused to the ancient martial arts world."
"They are so young and have such high cultivation levels. Who knows if they are like the evil doctors in the ancient medical world, who have gone astray and taken some crooked path?"
"They must be eliminated!"
As the ancestors of the Lin and Yue families, Lin Wuliang and Yue Qinghe remained silent.
But these people's words were clearly instructed by them.
Feng Xiu gripped the document tightly, suppressing his anger, and said calmly, "I cannot make this decision."
The world of ancient martial arts has indeed become so corrupt.
Upon hearing this, the voices of the ancient martial arts practitioners fell silent.
If even Feng Xiu can't make the decision, then who can?
Feng Xiu then said, "I need to invite my master."
"!!!"
Lin Wuliang and Yue Qinghe exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes.
Does wind repair even have a master?
Who is his master?
Feng Xiu is already the number one ancient martial artist, so what kind of existence is his master?
Moreover, they had never heard of Feng Xiu having a master.
Lin Wuliang and Yue Qinghe looked at each other for a while, then asked in unison, "May I ask, Senior Feng Xiu, where is your master now?"
"We're eating, we'll be back in a bit." Feng Xiu tossed the petition aside. "If you're busy, you can go now."
Although Feng Xiu said that, who would actually dare to go down?
Lin Wuliang and Yue Qinghe also sat upright and waited.
It took a full hour for the courtroom doors to open.
Everyone instinctively looked back.
That face is recognized by everyone in the ancient martial arts world.
The first ancient physician, Fu Xi.
Fu Xi is Feng Xiu's master?!
"Oh, my junior sister is here." Feng Xiu stood up and went to greet her. "Junior sister."
Fu Xi nodded slightly: "Senior Brother".
Feng Xiu raised his hand: "Please."
The two stepped forward, but did not sit in the top position.
It goes without saying who it's for.
Thirty minutes later, the door was pushed open again.
Still double rewards, then I'll ask for another round of monthly votes =3=
Good night
