Chapter 173

Translator:Misty CloudEditor:Misty Cloud

Utter silence!

A quietness that's unimaginable before!

Seemed as if breathing was stopped, everyone unable to say a single word!

As it turned out, this girl actually didn't fawn on Grandmaster Zi Zun to obtain her position. She truly already learned armaments from a long time ago.

And Grandmaster Zi Zun must've known of this, that's why he accepted her as his official disciple!

Wei Wei took part in the competition at Phoenix Tower, Helian Jiao Er also knew of it. Not only did she know of it, she even met that slut on the streets, but how could she have figured that the person who Master Tu Tian turned the entire capital upside down to find would be her!

Helian Jiao Er's face burst into a green color, her fingers continuously clenched tightly. Damn her!

When the hell did this slut start to become so difficult to deal with!

How come she wasn't aware of anything at all!

Master Tu Tian certainly didn't care what other people were thinking as his eyes shined brightly while waiting for Wei Wei's answer. "How about it? Lass?"

"Let's wait until the competition officially ends." Tu Tian's eyes were on Wei Wei. Wei Wei's eyes, though, were on the pile of shiny silver. "All of us from the Inferior Compound are poor, let's wait until we've received our money."

Poor? After hearing this word, Hei Ze almost choked up the tea he was drinking. Based on what he knew, right now, their shop's daily cash flow was no less than a hundred thousand taels of silver, as the boss, Wei Wei couldn't have not known?

"Cough cough. You're right. I was just too excited and forgot about even such a thing." Tu Tian smiled gently and lifted his head. "Based on the academy's rule of two out of three duels, I declare that in the match between Superior Compound and the Inferior Compound, the Inferior Compound wins!"

Bang!

Master Bai finally couldn't brace himself any longer as his entire body plopped on his wood chair, dazed and beside himself. Where was there still the air of complacency he carried previously, he extended his hand to cover his own face as he watched Tusu Feng lead those students from the Inferior Compound towards the stage. As before, the principal was refined and graceful, an appearance of holding heaven and earth in the palm of his hand.

The one who's beaten miserably yet still refused to yield, Yuan Ling Xuan's eyes were red through and through as he watched this scene, grinding his teeth with so much force they groaned. There's no way he's going to accept it. In spite of everything, they were crushed by the Inferior Compound so miserably that they completely lost all face!

"I refuse to accept it!" Yuan Ling Xuan stood up, when he looked towards Baili Jia Jue, he wished he could tear him to shreds on the spot. "I was merely jolted off of the stage, if this stage was bigger, I may not have necessarily lost!"

Baili Jia Jue's footsteps didn't even pause, his face appeared emotionless, clearly expressing that he didn't care whether the other accepted it or not.

On the contrary, Nangong Lie by his side evilly smiled as he sighed and said. "Brother, look at the trouble you've caused, I thought you'd beat up little Young Master Yuan so that he couldn't even crawl if he wanted to. Why did you have to go soft on him."

Baili Jia Jue glanced back, his expression unenthusiastic. "Little Young Master Yuan?"

"Uh-huh?" Nangong Lie shrugged his shoulders.

Baili Jia Jue's eyebrows rose. "Who is that."

Yuan Ling Xuan:...your daddy had just finished dueling with you, and you've already forgotten your daddy! ! !

Nangong Lie tried to hold in his laugh as he pointed at Yuan Ling Xuan, his facial expression completely contorted.

Baili Jia Jue uttered an 'oh' and curved his lips into a smile that's not a smile. "Don't you think that someone like him, rather than kill him, it's instead better to leave him alive. That remembering all the time how it feels to lose would give him more pain?

He's saying that from beginning to end, he was sparing him? ! Yuan Ling Xuan became thoroughly enraged, and wanted to rush on stage, yet was stopped by the students next to him!

"Young Master Yuan, you should calm down, if at this time you cause a disturbance, based on the academy's regulations, the principal would punish you!"

Yuan Ling Xuan was so angry, his face became deformed, opening his mouth to pant air, as if trying very hard to suppress the fury raging inside himself.

Wei Wei watched that face of his, and immediately felt that her deskmate was right. For this kind of person, losing to someone he looked down upon was so much more difficult to take than being killed.

However...

Everything clearly had already concluded.

Yet her deskmate still revealed those facts to his opponent. This person was really sinister, too sinister.

Wei Wei glanced sideways at Baili Jia Jue's flawless face, the light in her eyes gave away her intent to probe.

Baili Jia Jue naturally sensed her scrutiny, when he returned her gaze, the corners of his mouth already rose into a smile that could pacify all living things in the world, pure, just like an angel. "What's up?"

"Nothing." Maybe she's overthinking things, Wei Wei smiled softly. "Accept the prize, after we received the prize money, let's go out for a drink!"

Baili JIa Jue replied 'sure', eyes as dark as black ink quietly extended his line of sight into the distance, a neither deep nor shallow, just a vague smiling expression floated on the corners of his mouth, both light and dark with a vestige of sorrow that couldn't be expressed.

Drink?

That's right.

Drinking more could provide an opportunity for him to do a little something, ah...

The intra-academy competition finally concluded, and it was the first time that the Inferior Compound seized a victory within hundreds of years.

And even though the Superior Compound wasn't willing, they still could only come in second.

The matter of Helian Jiao Er, Murong Chang Feng and company entering the Battle Spirit Forces was also dropped. There was no possible compromise for this.

Wei Wei took the winnings and went off the stage as her eyes levelly swept over the young girl who wanted to escape. "Miss Mu, apparently, you've forgotten to do something."

That young girl's shoulders suddenly stiffened, slowly turned her head, and saw everyone's gaze cast in her direction. She was forced to have no other choice but to lift her arm.

Pow!

The sound of one slap, extremely clear.

Helian Jiao Er's gaze turned, extended her hand to pull at Wei Wei's sleeves in compassion. "Older Sister, she merely spoke in haste for a time, and didn't commit some big crime. Is there a need for you to put her on the spot like this."

"Not some big crime?" Wei Wei smiled, then very fiercely, very fiercely continued. "Then if I now insulted your mother, Madam Su, will you still feel that it's no big crime?"

Helian Jiao Er's fingers stopped.

Wei Wei said levelly. "Helian Jiao Er, go back and tell that good mother of yours, everything is only just getting started."

That's right.

The enmity of killing her mother, the pain of family forcibly taken away.

She still hasn't revenged!

Right now, what did the things she'd done count for.

These had merely been the first step, that's all...

"You, you..." Helian Jiao Er tightly clenched both hands, yet wasn't able to speak a single word to refute her, because there were some family matters which only they knew among themselves, and were simply not fit to speak of in broad daylight.

Wei Wei also didn't care how she responded, as she calmly straightened out her sleeves, looked at the other girl's red cheek, and faintly smiled. "Miss Mu remember, I, Helian Wei Wei, has always not provoked anyone who didn't provoke me. Those who provoked me...will be eliminated completely!"

Not to mention, that year, if it wasn't for Grandscribe Mu's memorial to the emperor, how would mother have had to swallow back blood until her demise.

Don't think that because she was young, she couldn't remember anything. On the contrary, the younger she was, the more she remembered how these people finally dealt with her mother and daughter!

Just like what she'd said, she's just getting started.

Next, bit by bit, she'll seize back everything that should've belonged to her!
