System Journey to Godhood

Chapter 111: She is Cheating!

"Please remind me not to mess with her in the future. She is too scary," Lin Ming solemnly speaking, which was followed by Chen Xiaoyun, nodding her head like a chicken pecking rice.

Feng Xue smiled playfully, "You can't bully me again, First Brother. If I'm sad, Snowy will come to you for an explanation."

Lin Ming let out an exasperated sigh, "You little ancestor. Since when I have ever bullied you? Isn't it the opposite? And now you make me seems like the bad guy here."

"Quiet you two."

Feng Xue and Lin Ming stopped their bickering after they were scolded by Zi Ling. They once again put their attention on the examination area, watching its progression.

They want to know what Qian Bu Yu would do next after Snowy pressured him to such extents.

What happened next startled all people present.

Qian Bu Yu step on the fourth gate's platform, suddenly his body filled with fresh wounds.

He crouched down and howled.

Many people shuddered; they could feel how much pain he suffered from his frightful scream.

They saw Snowy followed him, stood next to him while looking down at him coldly.

She seemed to say something, but they had no idea of what she said that could make Qian Bu Yu fell down on the ground and fainted. 

"Cousin!"

"Young Master!"

On the outside of the examination area, the member of the Qian Clan fell into chaos.

All of them had panicking looks.

"No, no, it's impossible. She must have done something to cousin!" Qian Qingruo's face turned pale as her hand was shaking.

They wanted to rush into the examination area and save their young master. But they were immediately stopped by the guards from Heaven Sword Sect.

"What is the meaning of this?" One of Qian Family's elders shouted at the guards.

"No outsider can enter the examination area while the examination is still going. If you force your way in, all Qian Family's disciples who are still inside will be eliminated!" the guard firmly answered.

The quarrel quickly turned into commotion, attracting many curious gazes from the crowd.

If this continues, The Qian Clan would lose their face further.

The elder knew that arguing with the guard would not solve the problem. He turned his head at Elder Lan, looking at her gravely.

"Elder Lan are you not going to do something about this?! We demand an explanation!"

"Hmm? What are you talking about?" replied Elder Lan lazily. 

"That girl is attacking our Young Master just now, you still want to play ignorant?" that elder growled at Elder Lan angrily.

"You don't spout nonsense. Qian Bu Yu cannot bear the suppression any longer, so he fainted. That girl had nothing to do with this. With me here, she didn't have a chance to do sneaky things even if she wants to."

"Then, how can you explain what happened here? Why is she still fine yet our Young Master collapses?" His attitude became fiercer after listening to Elder Lan's answer.

"That girl must be cheating!" Qian Qingruo shouted from behind.

"Watch your mouth! How dare you slander Snowy; do you have evidence she is cheating?" Feng Xue coldly snorted as she and her companion walk over.

"You! You must have colluded with her to attack my cousin! What treasure did you give her? What did she do to my cousin?!" 

Qian Qingruo pointed her finger at Feng Xue with anger.

"Do you think because you are from the Qian Clan you can be unbridled, wantonly accusing other? Elder Lan, please enact the justice and punish them!" Feng Xue turned to Elder Lan, pretending to be wronged.

"You!" 

"Silence! Like I said she has done nothing wrong, and she didn't cheat either. Or do you want to say that I lack the ability to perform my duty as the examiner? Are you insulting my intelligence?"

A frightening aura was released from Elder Lan's body, suppressing the Qian Family's member.

Some of Qian Clan's disciples staggered back as they were coughing mouthfuls of blood. The weakest among them fell unconscious as they couldn't bear the pressure.

Their elders' condition was not much better. All of them had the face turned blue.

"Elder Lan please quell your anger! We don't have the intention to offend you. It's just our temporary lapse of judgment, it's just a misunderstanding please stop!" one of the elders quickly took action to appease Elder Lan's fury.

"The next time you question my judgment, I'll immediately kick you out of here and disqualified the disciple of Qian Clan!"

Elder Lan glared at them displeasingly and then coldly snorted. She retracted her aura, afterward.

"We understand," All Qian Family members lowered their heads and silently bear the humiliation.

However, as one of the big clans in Sword City, they could not lose their face for nothing. So, they decided to approach Elder Lan in a humbler attitude.

"But Elder Lan please at least explain to us why only that girl is the only one who is still fine. Most of the examinees had been struggling due to the suppression and injured by the sword intent, even our Young Master who is already at the seventh level of Qi Transformation is also in a bad shape. So how can she do it?"

"Why do I need to explain it to you lot?" 

"We we just want to broaden our horizon"

The elder gnashed his teeth and forcefully contained his fury as Elder Lan was looking at them with disdain.

Many eyes fell on Elder Lan expectantly, waiting for her response. They were dying to know the answer. 

Elder Lan couldn't bear the intense gaze on her, so she reluctantly answered.

"Fine. It is just my guess, but I think, aside from cultivating her spiritual qi, she is also a body refiner cultivator! Her body is just that strong, so that, she didn't feel anything from the suppression force so far. 

And for why she is not affected by the sword intents, that because. She has manifested her own sword intent! That's why."

"W-what?!" 

"I-impossible!"

The revelation shook everybody to the core. They drew in a deep breath unconsciously.

How old is she? How can she manifest a sword intent? 

If it was true, does it mean that she was the youngest Sword Grandmaster in Eastern Region's history?

The old experts and veteran cultivators all had blank looks on their faces.

They had guessed it before but to hear the truth directly still made their heart hurt.

How many years had they spent and blood they spill on sword dao and still stuck in swordmaster level?

Yet here, a mere 18 years-old girl had achieved something that they could only dream of.

'What the hell I'm doing with my life?'

'Is there justice in this world?'

All of them had an urged to jump off the cliff and committed suicide.

"H-how can it be? Isn't her talent only 3-stars?" a young cultivator said with a forlorn expression. 

He could not accept that someone his age had already reached such unreachable height.

"The talent assessment by the Sword Gate only takes account of someone's age, constitution, bloodline, and cultivation base. By no means, it can perfectly represent someone's potential. 

That is why afterward we have another test to assess other qualities possessed by someone as a cultivator. She is the perfect example of the saying, don't judge a book by its cover."

"Well, whether you believe it or not, that's the truth. Now, scram!"

The crowd immediately dispersed as they were afraid that they would incur Elder Lan's displeasure.

The members of the Qian Family were also left dejectedly. They lost so much face today without any means to retaliate. 

'No, no, no. I'm doomed! She is tricking me to fall into her trap! Damn it!'

Qian Qingruo was especially depressed. She regretted that she had a mess with someone as devilish as Snowy. The bet between Snowy and Qian Bu Yu came to her mind make her trembled in anxiety.

"I I don't have a choice. I must report this to Uncle Qian!"

***

On the watching platform, many people engaged in another round of lively discussion after receiving the news about the commotion that happen before.

"Initially, I think that the betting girl was beyond saving when she accepted Qian Bu Yu's bet. It turned out that she is playing a pig to eat a tiger. Fortunately, I'm not offending her," one of the young cultivators who has been eliminated in the first round said to his friend.

"Yes, yes. With her achievement at such a young age, she would definitely be a central figure of the Eastern Region in the future. We must do everything to get closer to her!"

"That's true. Even if we can't become friends with her at least we don't become her enemy. It is only courting disaster!" 

"Qian Clan truly hit an iron board today. They are really unlucky to offend such dazzling genius, I think even Second Elder Qian can't do anything about it and can only swallow his grievance," said one elder.

"You underestimate Elder Qian too much. He is the type who cannot take a loss and is very vengeful. He will not sit and do nothing," Another elder disagreed.

"Yeah, I think Heaven Sword Sect in the future won't be very peaceful."

They could already smell the upcoming storm.
