The disappearance of Yun Luotian was so quiet that it was as if she had never been here.
Only then did everyone heave a sigh of relief.
"I didn't expect her to come. Her intimidating aura scared me to death." A master patted his chest and whispered to Rong Hua beside him cautiously.
Rong Hua just smiled. He looked up at Ji Yunxi under the stage, with an indescribable look in his eyes.
At this moment, Ji Yunxi still held her head up. She heard Yun Luotian say "Forget it" and knew that she probably wouldn't go to the Dreamy Blossom Pavilion. She felt a bit sad.
Staring blankly at the place where Yun Luotian disappeared, Ji Yunxi was filled with mixed emotions. Thinking of the old acquaintance Yun Luotian mentioned, she knew that person was herself, and this Soul Pearl was also left in the Dreamy Blossom Pavilion by her in her previous life.
Back then, when she was still Feng Yunxi, she was taken back by Princess Yunyang of the Cloud Rising Palace as soon as she was born and was taken in as an apprentice.
Her master, who had a life of nobility and integrity, busied himself for her day after day, raising her from a baby in swaddling clothes to an adult, and then carefully teaching and protecting her.
Later, there was Yun Luotian, a younger sister who became the apple of her eye.
After that, there was Feng Xingzhi, and the Cloud Rising Palace gradually became more lively.
She fell in love with Feng Xingzhi at first sight. For a while, she even slacked off on her cultivation to secretly watch her junior brother. Her master even laughed at her when he found out.
She originally thought that days like this would go on steadily as she had hoped. Who would have thought that later, Feng Xingzhi misunderstood her relationship with Princess Yunyang, and the two went their separate ways.
Back then, she was young and impulsive and refused to explain anything.
However, before she could figure it out, a traitor emerged in the Cloud Rising Palace. He colluded with the Moon Glory Palace from within, and the Cloud Rising Palace fell. In order to defend the Cloud Rising Palace, she died in that war. She didn't even get to see Feng Xingzhi one last time before she died.
A sorrowful look suddenly appeared on Ji Yunxi's face. Feng Xingzhi, who was standing beside her, was a bit worried and quickly whispered to her, "Xixi?"
She raised her hand and hid her tears in Feng Xingzhi's arms. That past life was full of regrets, and thinking about it was quite a pity.
Seeing her strange expression, Feng Xingzhi was very worried. "Xixi, what's wrong? Are you not feeling well?"
Ji Yunxi still buried her head. "No, I just remembered some old things. Azhi, don't leave me again."
Feng Xingzhi was stunned. He couldn't remember anything now, so he could only put his arm around Ji Yunxi and say okay.
Ji Yunyi stood beside them, feeling very out of place. Seeing Li Jiuge, who seemed a bit weak, he shook his head and stepped forward to help her down.
Li Jiuge left the arena. After all, this competition had to have a result. Bai Youmu stepped forward and wanted to announce the result.
However, the disciples on the scene were all chattering, saying that Li Jiuge had won unfairly.
"She used something. Isn't that cheating?"
"Yes, yes. And it was something from the upper realm. These people are also related to the Dreamy Blossom Pavilion. They must be the kind of people who take shortcuts on purpose!"
"It seems that the most problematic one is that Ji Yunxi. Aren't they all her minions?"
Ji Yunxi was already in a bad mood. Hearing these absurd remarks, she suddenly got a bit angry.
She poked her head out of Feng Xingzhi's arms. "Shut up! Do you know what the Soul Pearl is?"
"What else could it be? It must be something that can improve one's ability in a short time!"
Ji Yunxi sneered. "You know nothing. What right do you have to talk nonsense here? Moreover, the masters on the grandstand haven't said anything. It's not your turn to point fingers here!"
Those people were blushed by her retort and stammered, unable to refute.
Ji Yunxi continued, "Since we came to Kunlun Mountain, you have been extremely critical of us. I wonder if I have hurt your parents or relatives, or if I have done something to you personally?"
Those people couldn't answer.
"Just because we have joined Master Rong Hua's sect, you can't accept it? Or is your current master unworthy of teaching you?!" Ji Yunxi's one - sided criticism immediately made several masters on the stage turn pale.
Right! Were they dissatisfied with themselves by making such a fuss?
Seeing that the situation was gradually getting out of control, some masters couldn't sit still. They immediately wanted to put pressure on Rong Hua to stop Ji Yunxi.
"Rong Hua, are you just going to watch your disciple make such a ruckus?!"
Before Rong Hua could say anything, Ning Shuihan sneered. "It's really ridiculous. When they framed others, why didn't you scold them for making a ruckus? You all keep staring at Rong Hua's disciples. If you have the ability, manage your own disciples' mouths well. Don't make a fool of yourselves here!"
"You!"
Ning Shuihan wasn't going to tolerate them at all. "I don't know what you're thinking. Those stupid people don't know, but you've seen the water mirror. Don't you know? If it was you facing the Taowu that day, would you be sure to kill it?"
The master who had spoken suddenly looked dejected. He knew he didn't have the ability and could only shut up awkwardly.
The masters on the stage were speechless, and the disciples below weren't much better.
Ji Yunxi's criticism made many people with dirty thoughts restrain themselves for a while.
However, Ji Yunxi also knew that they were just quiet for a while and would surely cause trouble again.
So she turned to Bai Youmu and said, "Disciple would like to ask Master to explain the function of the Soul Pearl to these people to clear Li Jiuge's name."
Bai Youmu sighed. This Ji Yunxi was really perceptive. "Alright, the Soul Pearl just maximally stimulates a person's potential during cultivation. It only plays an auxiliary role."
Since Bai Youmu had spoken, everyone didn't dare to shout anymore.
Seeing this, Ji Yunxi said sarcastically, "Well? Li Jiuge won this competition fairly and squarely. After all, some useless people would be of no help even if they used the Soul Pearl."
Rong Hua burst out laughing on the stage. This girl really knew how to scold people.
Bai Youmu glared at Rong Hua, but in his heart, he also thought that someone with blood and spirit and a bottom line like this was indeed a good seedling. This year on Kunlun Mountain was really interesting. The most fortunate and the worst - behaved people had all gathered together.
After Ji Yunxi said this, many people got angry, thinking that she was insinuating that they were useless.
After waiting for a long time, Sang Qingzhou stepped forward at this moment. "Ji Yunxi, whether one is useless or not can only be known by trying. Your words alone don't count. How about a competition between you and me tomorrow?"
Ji Yunxi glanced at him. "What? Wasn't the God - Created World enough to scare you?"
Everyone immediately looked at Sang Qingzhou, a bit incredulous that Ji Yunxi had beaten Sang Qingzhou in the God - Created World.
Sang Qingzhou was furious, but this wasn't the right time to have a direct conflict. So he gritted his teeth. "Are you scared and dare not accept the challenge?"
"Humph! Ridiculous. I'm afraid you won't dare. As long as you come, I'll compete with you."
Sang Qingzhou was humiliated again. Angrily, he pushed through the crowd. "Just you wait!"
