Chapter 73 Wei Xinran Gives Up His Place
Seeing that the Spirit Beast Competition was about to begin, Yun Yueqing was not even qualified to participate, so she couldn't help but feel anxious.
She stood on the high platform in the corridor, looking through the bustling crowd at the towering spirit beast platform, feeling mixed emotions.
Just when Yun Yueqing was feeling uneasy, a soft call suddenly came from behind.
"Xiaoyan..."
A large hand grabbed Yun Yueqing's shoulder, frightening her so much that she trembled violently. She spun around reflexively, gathering a faint spiritual power in her palm, preparing to defend and counterattack.
Just as she was about to make a move, a familiar pair of eyes came into view.
"Wei Xinran?"
Yun Yueqing came over suddenly, and now she is Xiaoyan.
"Wei...Brother Wei, why are you here?"
Wei Xinran's eyes were gentle, yet filled with inquiry. "Xiaoyan, I've been looking for you. Where have you been all this time?"
Yun Yueqing casually made up an excuse, her eyes flickering. "Senior Brother Wei, I've been practicing in seclusion lately, hoping to improve my strength so that I can make a difference in the Spirit Beast Competition. Unfortunately... I still can't meet the standards."
Wei Xinran raised an eyebrow slightly and asked, "Is that true? Then why did you participate in the Spirit Beast Competition?"
Yun Yueqing began to weave a high-sounding excuse, "Of course, it's because this year there's a rare Nine-tailed Spirit Cat. Even though I didn't have the chance to participate, it would be great to see the Xuantian Sect's guardian beast."
Upon hearing this, Wei Xinran curled up the corners of his mouth into a faint smile, his eyes flashing with subtle depth.
"Xiao Yan, if you really want to see the Nine-tailed Spirit Cat, I have a solution."
He slowly took out an exquisite jade ball from his arms. It was engraved with intricate runes and shone with a warm luster in the sunlight.
"This is my entry, you take it."
Although Yun Yueqing was confused, she took the jade ball without hesitation.
Wei Xinran gently placed the jade ball in her palm, and the warmth seemed to penetrate the jade and reach her heart.
She raised her eyes at the right time, and there was a trace of gratitude in her heart. After all, at this critical moment, there was a solution, which really made people feel relieved.
Yunyue said "thank you" lightly and left.
Wei Xinran looked at Yun Yueqing's hurriedly departing back, and a doting smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Yun Yueqing held the warm jade ball tightly in her hand as she walked across the corridor and quickly down the stands.
There was a long queue in front of the registration point, but she didn't care and walked straight to the end of the line.
There was a burst of noise, and Wen Chu Ning's figure appeared among the crowd. The registration was so grand that it attracted discussions all around.
Yun Yueqing's heart tightened, and she tore off the thin gauze on her clothes with a "swish".
A simple veil was made and gently wrapped around the face, revealing only a pair of clear eyes.
Wen Chu Ning was surrounded by several attendants who were dressed in gorgeous clothes and led her to the registration point like stars surrounding the moon.
The servants shouted loudly, dispersing the crowd around and clearing a clear path for Wen Chu Ning.
"Get out of the way! If you bump into Senior Sister Wen, can you handle the consequences?"
Wen Chu Ning had a proud smile on her face and walked lightly, as if every step was on the clouds.
Seeing this, the person in charge of the registration point hurried forward and respectfully led Wen Chu Ning to the front of the line.
The people around cast envious and jealous glances at him, and there were constant discussions, but no one dared to step forward to stop him.
"Why is this person cutting in line? He's so arrogant, who is he?"
"You may not know this, but this is Wen Chuning from the Xuantian Sect, the genius who saves the world. I'm warning you, don't offend Senior Brother Wei Xinran, don't offend her."
"why?"
"Senior Brother Wei is humble and polite. Wen Chuning was also gentle and refined at first, but I don't know why she's so arrogant now. And because of her reputation as a peerless genius, no one dares to mess with her. If you offend her, you don't have time to hang around here."
Yun Yue interrupted and asked, "How can you not get along? Could it be that because of a word from you, I will give you..."
As he spoke, he made a gesture of wiping his neck.
Seeing this, the man started to panic and lowered his voice, "Little girl, please keep your voice down. You can't talk about this casually."
When it was Yun Yueqing's turn to sign up, she slowly walked forward and gently placed the jade ball in her hand on the table.
The old man at the registration desk looked at the jade ball and a look of surprise suddenly flashed in his eyes.
"Sir, this ball is of top quality. We should be able to skip the preliminaries and go directly to the semi-finals."
Yunyue nodded slightly and was about to respond when she heard a commotion in the crowd.
Wen Chu Ning had noticed this place at some point. She walked slowly over, her eyes as sharp as torches, fixed directly on the jade ball in Yun Yueqing's hand.
"This jade ball seems to belong to Senior Brother Wei."
A sneer appeared on her lips, and the servants quickly surrounded her, and the atmosphere became tense.
The attendants around Wen Chuning suddenly shouted in unison: "Catch the thief! This thief stole Senior Brother Wei's competition jade ball!"
The shouts were like waves, sweeping across the crowd in an instant, causing an uproar all around.
Yun Yueqing's face suddenly changed. Before she could react, she saw the servants rushing towards her like wolves and tigers and surrounding her.
The attendants stretched out their hands to snatch the jade ball from Yun Yueqing's hand. The scene was in chaos, and the exclamations and accusations of the crowd mixed together to form a sea of noise.
"No wonder this girl is wearing a veil and dares not show her true face. She turns out to be a thief."
Yun Yueqing held the jade ball tightly and struggled hard, but she could not break free from the siege of the crowd and was extremely anxious.
"This thief is wearing a veil. I want to see how ugly he is."
Wen Chu Ning had a smug sneer on his face, and suddenly reached out and pulled hard.
Yun Yueqing felt a chill on her face, and her veil was instantly pulled off by Wen Chuning, revealing an ordinary face to everyone.
Among Wen Chu Ning's attendants, a sharp-eyed disciple suddenly widened his eyes and pointed at Yun Yueqing with trembling fingers.
"It's... it's her! She's the damn beggar who stole Senior Sister Wen's ID card!"
As soon as the words fell, the crowd around was in an uproar, their eyes full of astonishment and confusion.
A deeper sneer appeared on the corner of Wen Chu Ning's mouth. She slowly walked closer, her eyes like ice blades, looking Yun Yueqing up and down.
"You are so lucky that you are not dead. But I didn't expect that you would dare to appear in front of me."
Wen Chu Ning appeared gentle on the surface, leaned close to Yun Yueqing's ear and lowered his voice.
"You won't be so lucky this time. If you offend me, I will kill you completely."
Naturally, she didn't want to dirty her hands in front of everyone, so she signaled to her servants with her eyes.
The attendants understood and their eyes suddenly became fierce. Under the pretext of taking back the jade ball, they flashed, a cold light flashed, and the sharp blade cut through the night, heading straight for Yun Yueqing's vitals.
Yun Yueqing's figure was light and graceful, with a barely perceptible smile on the corner of her mouth, like a fallen leaf in the wind. She slightly turned her body and cleverly avoided the fatal blow.
She pretended to stumble, feigning clumsiness, unwilling to reveal her strength. Even as she stumbled, she was actually moving cautiously, making every attack invisible.
