Chapter 30: The Actors Are in Place
As the bleak autumn wind blew through the low woods, people came out to the wide open space in the forest one after another.
Thanks to the day-to-day "Persecution" chaired by Tong Yao, now anything that could be linked to Bai Lian could attract a lot of attention.
Onlookers would only be late, never absent!
Listening to the whispers in her ears, Tong Yao, standing on the edge of the challenge arena, remembered the in-depth education that Martial Sister Bai Lian had given her.
That night, she broadened her horizons.
That night, she knew that she could still play like this.
After some maneuvering, Elder Martial Brother Gong Juren's reputation grew day by day, and Martial Sister Bai Lian, who was more powerful than Elder Martial Brother Gong Juren, naturally won the title of "Uncrowned King".
"We don't discuss immortals."
"We will follow Martial Sister Bai Lian forever."
"Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian is the strongest!"
This made Tong Yao feel that she had grown up rapidly.
She used to steal her master's wine. If caught, she would get a beating. Now she realized that this was wrong. If she went and flattered her master, and then stole her master's wine after that, she wouldn't be beaten after being caught. At most, she would get a scolding.
At the age of 14, she could at last proudly say that she was an adult!
"Martial Sister Bai Lian is really smart!"
A word, an action, or even a look from her could make others suddenly enlightened.
This magical power gradually made Tong Yao stop thinking of Martial Sister Bai Lian as a goal.
I can't catch up.
It was better to serve Martial Sister Bai Lian. Once Martial Sister Bai Lian reconstructed the heaven on earth, she might be able to get a position such as the Eastern God Emperor.
"There it is!"
Suddenly, a cry of surprise attracted the attention of everyone present.
Tong Yao recovered from her emotion and immediately looked around.
"Where, where?"
Unfortunately, she was too short.
Facing a large black forest (meaning hair) around, Tong Yao reluctantly jumped onto the challenge arena.
The source of the disturbance came from the entrance of the forest.
A dozen people lined up in two loose rows.
The first man hugged his chest with both hands, and walked toward the challenge arena with a lifeless look on his face.
"Bah!"
I feel unlucky when I see this face!
Tong Yao resisted the thought of spitting.
She thought it was Martial Sister Bai Lian coming, but she didn't expect it was the people who bullied Martial Sister Bai Lian's Martial Sisters.
……
Jiang Haochuan, who walked in the front, was as dejected as death.
In fact, he wanted to hide in the back, but his strength was the strongest among them. He had to lead the team.
What an injustice!
Jiang Haochuan remembered what happened ten days ago.
When he heard that his friend had been beaten, he planned to go over and help his friend. Cultivators were also human beings, which might cause conflict with others.
Who would have thought that as soon as he went, he saw Martial Sister Bai Lian coming angrily.
At this time, he knew that his good friend blackmailed Martial Sister Bai Lian's younger Martial Sister.
Holy crap.
He didn't know that his friend was doing such a dirty job in private.
I made friends too carelessly!
But he was still lucky compared to others.
Fortunately, Martial Sister Bai Lian was a magnanimous person.
If it was Martial Sister Chen Lu, he might have been assigned to a mine for three years.
Jiang Haochuan thought it over before coming.
He must fight. If he didn't, it would be like humiliating Martial Sister Bai Lian. Even if Martial Sister Bai Lian didn't say anything, other people's scolding could give him social death.
But he couldn't fight for real.
He didn't know what others thought. Anyway, he was going to deliberately fail after a difficult battle.
Only by cracking down on fake matches can there be a way out!
The question now was how he could mix up the fake with the real.
It's too hard!
Last night, Jiang Haochuan thought for a whole night and didn't come up with a suitable plan. He once wanted to stab himself and stand in the arena with an injured body, so that he could be easily defeated, but it was a little too deliberate.
Life is not easy!
"Admit defeat quickly!"
"It's too much to dare to challenge Martial Sister Bai Lian!"
Jiang Haochuan stood awkwardly beside the challenge arena.
Although those onlookers said so, if he really admitted defeat directly, he would be scolded harder later.
Ah.
A group of duplicitous men and women!
……
"Ah, ah, it's Martial Sister Bai Lian!"
"Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian's hands are really beautiful. Alas, I like them!"
As soon as Bai Lian arrived near the challenge arena, noisy cheers rang out.
Xiao Jinse had adapted to this scene, so no one could see anything unusual on her face.
But Su Youwei, as a newcomer, was different.
"Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian's hand is mine. Don't dream!"
She muttered. As soon as she looked up, she saw a purple ponytail coming up.
Danger!
Tong Yao said, "Martial Sister Bai Lian, I've arranged everything. You just need to let your younger Martial Sister go on stage and teach them a lesson!"
Bai Lian had nothing to say.
Why it is always you?
"Thank you."
She squeezed two words from her throat.
Encouraged, Tong Yao was excited, "Martial Sister Bai Lian, do you want to scold them first and set rules for them?"
As she said, the new options appeared in front of Bai Lian's eyes.
[Task 1: As the Martial Sister of Qiongming Peak, yell at those Yunluo Peak's disciples (Reward: Calming Pill)]
[Task 2: Laugh it off (Reward: Light Skill+2)]
"……”
Calming Pill was a kind of medicinal pill that could be used to enhance the cultivator's divine sense, which was no less valuable than inferior magic tools.
Are there hidden figures among these people?
Bai Lian's eyes swept over the ten people, and she couldn't see anything special on their faces.
She smiled freely, "It's unnecessary. Since they have come to fight, I don't need to be angry with them."
[Task completed. Light Skill+2]
"All right."
Tong Yao felt a little disappointed.
Chen Lu's Master, who was hiding her body above the clouds, was also quite disappointed with Bai Lian's reaction.
She didn't want to show up and look for trouble. After all, she was a master of the Duxian sect, and the root of the error was not Bai Lian.
But it was impossible to say that she liked Bai Lian.
Chen Lu's Master believed that Bai Lian was not suitable to be the next sect leader of the Duxian sect at all.
An Lan was an unreliable woman. Looking at Yan Yue's performance, who grew up with An Lan, An Lan's unreliability could even infect other humans!
Although Bai Lian looked good now, maybe her heart had long been stained by An Lan's unreliability.
If An Lan's unreliability could bury the entire Duxian sect within three years, then Bai Lian, who was infected by An Lan, could achieve the same effect within ten years.
How could the Duxian sect be destroyed by them?
Thus, the prejudice in people's hearts was too heavy!
Three years?
If An Lan became the sect leader, she could destroy the entire Duxian sect within a year!
Chen Lu's Master planned to persuade Jue Yunzi to think carefully.
But since it was persuasion, there must be enough evidence to support her point of view. She couldn't make up such a thing.
……
"Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian."
In front of the challenge arena, Jiang Haochuan came up to greet Bai Lian as a leader.
Bai Lian nodded, "Have you decided the order of battle?"
Jiang Haochuan shook his head.
"In that case, you can discuss it and start the competition after you're done."
"Yes."
Bai Lian turned to the two younger Martial Sisters and said, "Which of you will fight first?"
"Me!"
Su Youwei raised her hand without hesitation.
She figured it out.
Don't let the second Elder Martial Sister take the lead. She had beaten these people too hard that day. If these people were too afraid of her, they might admit defeat as soon as they came up. Then there would be no room for her to play fake matches!
So she must be the first to fight.
Seeing that Su Youwei had raised her hand, Xiao Jinse didn't say anything.
After all, the third Martial Sister was the one who was bullied the most. It was better to let her go up and vent her anger first.
Soon, Jiang Haochuan's team also discussed the battle order.
Under Tong Yao's command, who acted as the referee temporarily, a cultivator and Su Youwei took the stage one after another.
Jiang Haochuan clenched his teeth nervously.
He wanted to be the first, but others disagreed.
Those people probably wanted to rely on his strength to win back.
Sorry, everyone. I must play a fake match!
