As he received the message, which was a combination of eye contact and mental transmission, Lin Zhan's eyes revealed pain. He was incredibly conflicted, finding it difficult to make a choice.
He didn't know if he should trust her.
However, in the end, he chose to be conservative, giving up on fighting for Lin Zhongyu and ignoring her gaze.
Instantly, Lin Zhongyu's mood plummeted to rock bottom.
Even her own Father had given up, unwilling to believe her.
A wave of sadness surged into her heart, and Lin Zhongyu's eyes couldn't help but become moist. She didn't understand why her Father would alienate her and not trust her.
Was the position of Family Head really that important?
At this moment, seeing her childhood friend heartbroken and in tears, Mu Jixue couldn't bear it any longer, even revealing her fair canine teeth.
"Wait a moment!"
She loudly interrupted the ceremony, determined to stand up for Lin Zhongyu.
At the same time, she subconsciously paid attention to the Yun Family and found that Yun Zhonghe was not present. This immediately made her even more energetic.
She even felt a sense of clarity.
Because Yun Zhonghe hadn't appeared, she could finally protect her childhood friend with her own hands!
Chapter 36: Huang Mao: Don't worry, brother will take action for you
Mu Jixue was very disappointed with the Lin Family. Although she resided under the Lin Family, she had also brought them many benefits over the years. Just the five extra spots this time were enough to repay the years of kindness.
But what disheartened her was that the Lin Family wasn't even willing to give Xiao Yu one spot!
Was it because Mu Jixue was an outsider, and they knew she was leaving soon and likely wouldn't return to the Lin Family in the future, so they simply took all the benefits?
These ungrateful wretches!
What made Mu Jixue even more speechless was that even Uncle Lin ignored his own daughter, only caring about his own interests, letting them humiliate her in public.
Mu Jixue was completely disappointed in them.
Only she knew how hard Xiao Yu worked, enduring humiliation. Now that she finally had a turning point, how could she tolerate others defiling it?
Since you are unwilling to manage this, then I will!
"Wait a moment!"
In front of all the aristocratic families, Mu Jixue loudly interrupted the ceremony and stepped forward.
"Oh no..."
At this moment, Lin Zhongyu understood what Mu Jixue wanted to do. She was very touched, but at the same time, she was also a little embarrassed.
Mu Jixue causing a scene at the ceremony would definitely bring her unnecessary trouble, and Lin Zhongyu didn't want to implicate her.
Lin Zhongyu and Mu Jixue had completely different personalities. When unnecessary, she was more willing to choose to let things go.
It was just one spot, she could not care about it. Anyway, she had talent, and at worst, she could go out and work hard for a while before going to the Xuantian Sect.
But Xue'er was naturally reckless. If she forcefully stood up for her, who knew what kind of trouble she would cause, especially since Youyue Zhenren was also present. If it affected her immortal path, Lin Zhongyu would feel guilty for the rest of her life.
At this moment, Youyue Zhenren also looked at Mu Jixue: "Disciple, interrupting Master during the ceremony is not polite. Is there something very important that must be said?"
Youyue Zhenren was a person who valued etiquette greatly.
Lin Zhongyu also shook her head at Mu Jixue from a distance, hoping she would stop.
Forget it, Xue'er, there's no need. She sent a mental transmission.
But Mu Jixue didn't notice.
It's over, I can't stop Xue'er at all.
Lin Zhongyu couldn't help but look around, praying that someone could step forward to stop Mu Jixue's reckless behavior.
For some reason, the first thing that came to her mind was that shimmering golden hair.
If it were Yun Zhonghe, he would definitely be able to stop Mu Jixue's impulsive actions.
She quickly looked in the direction of the Yun Family, but didn't see Yun Zhonghe's figure, and her mood couldn't help but sink to a low point.
That's right, why should Yun Zhonghe help her for no reason every time? It didn't make sense, and she couldn't always rely on Yun Zhonghe's help.
Moreover, Youyue Zhenren's presence was stronger than the Yun Family, even Yun Zhonghe wouldn't dare to offend and talk back, right?
Lin Zhongyu lowered her eyelids, as if she herself had made a mistake.
"Master, this Disciple does have something very important that must be said now, and that is..."
"Hold on!"
Just as Mu Jixue was about to speak, that familiar voice suddenly sounded!
Lin Zhongyu's pupils suddenly constricted. She suddenly raised her head and looked over, and Yun Zhonghe's figure appeared in her line of sight.
That dazzling golden Huang Mao had arrived!
...
Yun Zhonghe had already anticipated Huang Aotian's actions midway, so he had left the Yun Family's queue earlier and moved to the entrance leading to the high platform.
Yun Zhonghe had not expected such an incident to arise during this Disciple selection ceremony. After all, in the game's plot, this section was simply described briefly and skipped over, without even a cutscene.
So he hadn't initially thought there would be undercurrents within the Lin Family.
It seemed that because Yun Zhonghe had changed the plot, it had caused various chain reactions.
But it came just in time!
A brother is in trouble! How could he stand by and watch? He must rush to the front line!
There was no such word as retreat in Yun Zhonghe's dictionary.
Yun Zhonghe understood Mu Jixue's depth the best. What could this child do? It was nothing more than making a fuss. Handling things this way was not a good method and would only put her and Lin Zhongyu in an awkward situation.
Step back, Aotian, you are unreliable. Let the most reliable big brother help you.
Yun Zhonghe was full of energy and strode towards the high platform.
Facing the gaze of so many aristocratic families and the Spirit Transformation Stage expert Youyue Zhenren, Yun Zhonghe remained calm and composed, steadily stepping onto the high platform one step at a time, with a powerful Aura!
Countless people's eyes were drawn to him.
"Hiss... This must be that Yun Family Young Master, why does he feel like a different person? He's... extraordinary in temperament, with an imposing appearance?"
"Huh? He looks so upright, isn't he supposed to be a dissolute scoundrel?"
"So handsome, so charming, he's so cool..."
Some young girls blushed one after another, their hearts fluttering.
Yun Zhonghe's Father was also taken aback when he saw Yun Zhonghe suddenly rush in, and cold sweat broke out, worried that his foolish son would act up again after only being serious for a few days.
Youyue Zhenren's eyes, as deep as a secluded moon, looked at Yun Zhonghe. In an instant, Yun Zhonghe felt a surge in his Soul, but he was only slightly dazed for a moment before immediately returning to normal.
"Huh? What powerful spiritual energy."
A hint of surprise flashed in Youyue Zhenren's eyes.
One could not Cultivate spiritual energy before reaching the Golden Core Stage, but Yun Zhonghe had just easily resisted her spiritual probe. How could this not surprise her?
Moreover, Yun Zhonghe had an extraordinary appearance, exuding a pure golden Aura, and his cultivation was also good. He seemed to have hidden his strength, but Youyue Zhenren could tell that this young man in front of her should be on par with her Disciple. Although he was two years older than Mu Jixue, he was still excellent. After all, not everyone had the top-tier talent like Mu Jixue.
She hadn't expected that there would be such a young talent in the small Cangzhou City. Why hadn't she noticed him before?
At this moment, Youyue Zhenren's interest was also piqued by Yun Zhonghe.
"You are..."
"I am Yun Zhonghe, and my Father is Yun Chongtian."
"You are the Yun Family Young Master? Why have you suddenly intruded?"
"Miss Mu's abrupt interruption just now was actually for something I had asked her to do before. However, I think it's more appropriate for me to explain it myself now."
After speaking, Yun Zhonghe and Mu Jixue exchanged glances.
But Mu Jixue's entire face was twisted.
Why is it this Huang Mao again!!!
She was almost doubting life. She finally had a chance to show off in front of her childhood friend, but then this Yun Zhonghe cut in again.
(｀??)Ψ╰ひ╯
This intrusion made her incredibly uncomfortable.
Mu Jixue had a strong premonition that as long as this damn Huang Mao appeared, her childhood friend's gaze would be completely focused on him.
More importantly, she couldn't say anything.
After all, Yun Zhonghe was helping them.
There was even a feeling of going all out, regardless of the consequences.
Mu Jixue was a little frantic at this moment, wondering why this man had to be so dedicated!
At this moment, she didn't dare to look into Lin Zhongyu's eyes.
However, when Mu Jixue couldn't help but glance over, she indeed saw Lin Zhongyu staring intently at Yun Zhonghe, her eyes filled with Yun Zhonghe's golden figure.
Waaah! .゜゜(?Ｏ`) ゜゜.
She was on the verge of tears.
Xiao Yu, look at me! Look at me! Don't look at him!
Chapter 37: Huang Aotian, you don't want...
"Yun Zhonghe... How could he come out at this time?"
At this moment, in the Lin Family queue, Lin Feng's gaze slightly narrowed, and a bad premonition arose in the depths of his eyes.
Originally, everything was within Lin Feng and the Lin Family Grand Elder's plan, and it was all proceeding according to the script.
In fact, no matter how much Mu Jixue made a fuss or whether she managed to get a spot for Lin Zhongyu, Lin Feng and the Grand Elder didn't care. After all, the Family Head Lin Zhan had already given up on Lin Zhongyu. Even if Lin Zhongyu was truly qualified to take the test and the results were good, it would only further prove Lin Zhan's shortsightedness!
From the moment Lin Zhan gave up on Lin Zhongyu, the position of Lin Family Head was basically destined to change hands.
But at this crucial moment, Yun Zhonghe suddenly appeared, making the originally clear outcome suddenly become uncertain.
"This shouldn't be happening. Yun Zhonghe, this degenerate scoundrel, could it be that he really wants to stand up for Lin Zhongyu? Isn't he just playing around?"
Lin Feng felt it was unbelievable. He really couldn't figure out the purpose of Yun Zhonghe doing this and what benefits he could gain.
...
"Yun..."
Looking at Yun Zhonghe walking onto the high platform, Lin Zhongyu, who was standing in the queue, felt both happy and complicated.
She was happy that with Yun Zhonghe present, she didn't have to worry about Xue'er causing any trouble, but when Yun Zhonghe actually appeared, she felt very uneasy.
After all, she had already received so many favors from Yun Zhonghe, and she hadn't even repaid any of them, and now she was troubling him again.
Moreover, this time they were facing a Xuantian Sect Elder, so even Yun Zhonghe had to be careful.
Lin Zhongyu didn't know if she would put Yun Zhonghe in a difficult situation as well.
If that were the case, she would rather bear everything herself.
As Lin Zhongyu thought this, she silently clenched her fists on her chest. She stared deeply at Yun Zhonghe's back. That tall and imposing figure was a goal she wanted to catch up to no matter what.
There was light in her eyes!
But Mu Jixue's eyes were filled with dead silence.
She really wanted to lie on the ground and throw a tantrum, just start making a scene!
Damn Huang Mao! Stinky Huang Mao! Bad Huang Mao! Why are you so annoying!
Why does she always run into him!
Mu Jixue roared inwardly. She hated him to the extreme, gritting her teeth. She wished she could immediately pounce on Yun Zhonghe and start biting him with her clean little canine teeth.
She couldn't bear it any longer and disregarded the occasion, quickly approaching Yun Zhonghe.
