Inheriting A Divine Cultivation Clan At The Start, All My Juniors Are Empresses

Chapter 512: Chapter 224: Shooting Your Glass with a Slingshot! A Terrifying Battle! _4

Yuchi comforted Dongran, who silently lowered her head.

When he was imprisoned by Zhou Xingcai, he was practically blinded by her antics outside the cell. It was simply outrageous.

Amusing herself, truly terrifying.

”It’s okay, you won’t need to go through that anymore,” Yuchi said, placing his hand on her shoulder.

Feng Dongran, her eyes red, nodded firmly. At that time, Zhou Xingcai was indeed a bit ruthless, but if it weren’t for her peculiar tastes, Dongran might have long been wedded off to another family.

Wei Qingzhu then continued from where Feng Dongran left off, saying, ”It’s alright, both my parents were killed by enemies. If it weren’t for Sect Leader Senior Brother’s rescue, I’d have died by the riverside long ago.”

The misery competition has begun... But once you verbalize your heart’s burdens, it’s always better than keeping them bottled up inside.

When Shen Qinghan returned, she was simultaneously regretting not hearing what her junior sisters were talking about and facing Yuchi’s gaze with a smile, saying, ”Sect Leader Senior Brother, you’d never guess who just arrived outside!”

Not just Yuchi, but the other disciples were also puzzled.

According to Shen Qinghan, this was someone they all knew, since Yuchi also knew them. So, who could it be?

”It’s Song Yinghan!”

Song Yinghan?

The disciples looked at each other. They generally couldn’t recall immediately, but after a brief moment of thought, Wei Qingzhu was the first to remember. She had some impression of Song Yinghan.

Sometime earlier in Jiangzhou City, she had met Song Yinghan. But why had she come here?

Yuchi was quite suspicious. Did the beautiful Song Yinghan really come? Could it be true? It didn’t make sense; Song the Great Beauty should be at the Stargazing Tower, right? Why would she come to this Immortal Island? This is the Ascension Gate Competition, what’s it got to do with the Stargazing Tower?

”Is she outside?” Yuchi asked, preparing to go out and see for himself. A lot of things become clear when you see them; could it really be her? That would be too amazing.

”She’s already left. She wanted to chat with us, but upon hearing that our Great Sect Leader Zong Liangqing was here, she felt shy to come over. I told her to wait outside for a while, but she still left and said there would be another chance to talk.”

Yuchi nodded.

His acquaintance with Song the Great Beauty was mainly because her father initially sent her to Jiangzhou City to gain experience.

Later, Song Qingshan feared him, Yuchi, and sent her to Canglan City, but she was still captured.

Now they could send Song the Great Beauty to the Ascension Gate Competition? Then run into him again?

”If Song the Great Beauty is truly here, then I seriously suspect that her father-in-law Song Qingshan is playing tricks on me.”

Anyway, Shen Qinghan hadn’t seen the person’s appearance, so there’s no rush. Slowly, if she’s indeed on this Immortal Island, she won’t be able to escape.

...

Tomorrow is the Ascension Gate Competition. Tonight, the members of the Ascension Gate came to a tavern for dinner. Cultivators generally don’t need to eat, but eating is a habit. Not having something feels off. Not to mention the Ascension Gate Competition, the food should be quite good, at least better than things they haven’t eaten before.

The main thing is...

It’s free!

Free stuff, sisters, let’s go! If it’s not for the Ascension Gate, not eating is disrespecting Sect Leader Senior Brother!

Yuchi quickly finished his meal and left directly. The disciples were still a bit reserved; with him around, they couldn’t really let loose.

”While I’m here, everyone eats so elegantly, chewing a single bean thirty times. I’ll go first, let them enjoy some food; not eating would be a waste!”

As soon as Yuchi left, the door just closed, and the five disciples simultaneously paused their actions, then looked at each other...

I won’t be a good person anymore!

The food on Immortal Island is so good!

Ah, chomp chomp chomp.

...

Yuchi sat downstairs in the tavern, wearing his mask, eavesdropping in a corner to see if he could hear any insider information about tomorrow’s official match.

And he really did hear a few pieces of news.

”It’s said they’re secretly observing us. The organizers are mixed in with the crowd! They seem to be disguised as regular reception staff, but in reality, they’re people from the organizing committee!”

Yuchi could only laugh off such things, knowing it didn’t serve any purpose. The other side is so huge; don’t bother unnecessarily to uncover their secrets. Doesn’t he know his own limits? Can’t dig deep even if he wanted to?

”Rumor has it that a giant serpent has appeared in the sea outside Immortal Island, a serpent with nine heads!”

A nine-headed serpent?

Yuchi still paid it no mind.

First, it’s too fake.

Second, it’s not that he doesn’t care, but that there’s no need to worry about such things.

His cultivation is like this, and so is the Ascension Gate’s. If the sky falls, that’s not a huge problem. If this serpent meant harm, the organizers wouldn’t allow it. If the organizers don’t care, then apart from running away, there’s no other good solution.

Of course, there were many similar rumors.

Mostly ”it’s said” or ”perhaps,” but truly credible information was scarce. Mostly it was hearsay.

Just as Yuchi was frowning with concern, an unexpected visitor appeared before him.

”Hehe, hello!”

Not called Hehe, in fact, Zong Liangqing... Yuchi turned his head towards the sneering voice and saw the woman from the earlier talent test. She was just a woman he’d seen in the daytime, not someone of the day, so why was she looking at him with such a resentful gaze? Had he done something wrong?
