1377: All Settled

All Settled

Back then, everyone's attention was suddenly stolen by the suddenly appearing Heavenly Square Cauldron, but almost nobody thought that the place where Chu Yue had been was also a good place to go. 0

If not, how could he possibly directly break through to become a stage-nine warrior from a stage-eight warrior?!

The Heavenly Square Cauldron was indeed a treasure, but only one person could get it in the end—not to mention the legendary three-eyed eagle clan that was hard to handle.

Rather than waiting here for an extremely unlikely opportunity, I should try another path! Perhaps… I can also obtain some twist of fate? Thinking of this, Jiang Zhiyuan had already made up her mind. Anyway, these people don't care about me and hate me to the core, so what else should I consider? As long as Elder Dan Qing is around, I can't do anything good for myself. Then, I should just give up!

As she slowly and carefully bandaged her wounds again, she silently surveyed her surroundings.

The sky had already darkened, and the surrounding scenery slowly became blurred. Everyone was staring at that barrier, and nobody noticed her.

She carefully moved toward the back, and her figure quickly and silently disappeared behind the crowd.

…

Jiang Zhiyuan thought that she had done it perfectly. However, she didn't know that her every move was already watched from the start.

"She still doesn't know her place like before…" Shi Rui'er retracted her gaze, and her expression was nonchalant.

"Second Miss, you have indeed predicted it." The elder with white brows softly said, "If not, I…"

"We don't have to spend so much effort on the current her, so you don't have to do anything about it." Shi Rui'er smiled. Although her lips were pale, she had recovered much of her aura. "We don't even have to think about where she went. I want to see what kind of commotion she can still cause."

"Yes."

…

The sky was dark.

Relying on her previous memory, Jiang Zhiyuan forcefully returned to the gully.

At this point, those nine dragon skeletons had quietened down at this point and just stood in their spots.

The night sky seemed rather scary.

Jiang Zhiyuan poked her head out and glanced below. She could forcefully see an outline of some shattered rocks, and the door was indeed still open. However, the inside was dark, and she couldn't see anything at all.

I probably still have to go down… Jiang Zhiyuan mustered her courage and jumped down!

The moment she landed, Jiang Zhiyuan noticed something amiss—the warmth in the gully had dissipated at some point.

She was standing not far away from the door, but the previous hot temperature had already dissipated. It was even slightly cold.

She carefully looked in. It was a pity she couldn't see anything by standing here.

The opening on the door had a sharp and clean cut to it. It showed just how sharp the sword was and how strong the person who wielded it was.

Jiang Zhiyuan couldn't help but feel jealousy and hatred. She knew that she could never leave such a mark on this door with her own strength alone, but Chu Yue could! Even if he is only a stage-nine warrior now, his abilities have long exceeded the crowd's expectations! And that sword… It is definitely not something ordinary. Why does he have all the good things?

Jiang Zhiyuan was enraged. She clenched her teeth and finally walked forward. Since Chu Yue can get a fateful opportunity here, then… Why can't I?!

…

In less than 20 steps, Jiang Zhiyuan quickly reached the door.

She paused in her tracks slightly and hesitated for a moment in front of the door. Through the opening on the door, she stuck her head in to take a look.

It was completely dark, and a ray of light flashed across faintly. However, she couldn't identify what it was clearly.

She thought for a moment and finally stepped in!

…

At the same time, the purplish-gold barrier finally dissipated! The barrier transformed into countless leaves, which flew back to the tree branches and swayed as per normal.

This commotion caused the entire spectating crowd to be taken aback as they hurriedly looked over.

Under the night sky, the faint light exuding from the purplish-gold bodhi tree outlined a slim and long figure—it was Chu Liuyue!

Countless eyes landed on her face.

The crystallized light caused her porcelain-white face to look as clear as jade. Her pair of black, gem-like eyes sparkled like stars, and there seemed to be light flashing in her eyes.

"Chu Yue!" Elder Hua Feng called out in surprise.

The crowd saw that young man look over. Then, his lips curled up into a smile.

On this dark and quiet night, she was like a bright pearl that glowed silently and was very eye-catching.

The crowd kept quiet.

She clearly had an ordinarily good-looking appearance, but for some reason, her smile made her look charming.

Chu Liuyue walked toward Ling Xiao Academy's side. "Elder."

Elder Hua Feng hurriedly pulled Chu Liuyue over and checked her carefully. "How are you? Are you injured? Did those legendary three-eyed eagles put you in a difficult spot?"

Chu Liuyue smiled. "I'm fine. Don't worry."

Elder Hua Feng then relaxed. That's true. With the red-gold heavenly phoenix around, those fellows probably wouldn't do anything toward him.

Seeing his expression, Chu Liuyue basically guessed his thoughts. She smiled with slightly deeper meaning. Actually, I didn't use this trump card. Wouldn't Zi Chen be more suitable than Tuan Zi?

But she temporarily couldn't say such words.

Noticing the inquisitive gazes around her, Chu Liuyue seemed to smile unintentionally and said, "I let the red-tailed phoenix talk to them and explained everything, so they didn't put me in a difficult spot. Oh right, they also agreed to return Senior Sister Shi Rui'er's fiend."

The crowd instantly had strange expressions. This… Why does everything sound so easy when coming out of Chu Yue's mouth?!
