"Yun Zhonghe, what exactly do you want to do!"
Yun Zhonghe didn't know if Mu Jixue knew her place or not. Yun Zhonghe was talking to Mu Jixue's master, so why did she suddenly butt in with her cold attitude? Did she think Yun Zhonghe had the upper hand and could easily take on two?
Please, your master is so fierce, my brainpower will be drained. I really don't have time to look after you.
Yun Zhonghe was speechless, feeling that Mu Jixue really couldn't distinguish the occasion and was clueless. If she weren't the main character today, the main focus of the ceremony, she would probably have been dragged away by her master.
However, while you say she doesn't know her place, she very rationally leaned in and whispered quietly next to Yun Zhonghe's ear, without shouting.
Instantly, a milky fragrance wafted from beside him. Her small and exquisite body, along with her inappropriately sized chest, pressed against him.
Yun Zhonghe's eyelid twitched: Aotian, although we're good brothers, this kind of closeness isn't appropriate, is it?
However, Mu Jixue didn't notice any of this at all.
Sure enough, she's thick-skinned.
Yun Zhonghe sighed, then replied softly: "Lin Zhongyu's spot was snatched, you're very angry, aren't you? Did you just make up your mind that even if you had to cause a scene at the venue, you would help her get the spot back?"
When Yun Zhonghe spoke, he returned to his usual calm and composed demeanor. Under this tone, with a slight hint of questioning, Mu Jixue suddenly stiffened, feeling guilty for a moment, and her previous arrogant aura completely dissipated.
In fact, she also knew that doing so was not good, but for her childhood friend, she was willing to bear all the consequences.
Yun Zhonghe chuckled inwardly, he knew too well how to handle Mu Jixue.
But Mu Jixue was still being stubborn: "I... I didn't. How do you know what I wanted to do?"
Yun Zhonghe chuckled coldly: "I don't need to weigh it to know how big your chest is, how many pounds and ounces."
Mu Jixue: "???"
I feel like he's flirting with me, but I have no evidence.
Seeing her looking foolishly stunned, Yun Zhonghe continued: "Alright, you step back first. I've seen this kind of situation many times, and I'm better at dealing with it than you are. I have a perfect plan that can ensure your safety. Trust me."
Trust me!
These three words heavily bombarded Mu Jixue. She could feel Yun Zhonghe's strong sense of righteousness, and at the same time, her intuition also told her that Yun Zhonghe was indeed sincerely helping.
But... she was truly unwilling.
Yun Zhonghe felt quite speechless. Seeing that she was still struggling, he simply used his trump card.
Yun Zhonghe placed a hand on Mu Jixue's shoulder: "You don't want your childhood friend to not get into Xuantian Sect, do you? Then just be obedient."
Mu Jixue: "!!!"
Mu Jixue was struck dumb, and suddenly a chill shot up her spine to the top of her head. Instinctive fear made her retreat repeatedly.
Mu Jixue's small face was red, her delicate lips seemed ripe, and her little heart pounded wildly.
What... what kind of nonsense did this guy just say to me!
Yun Zhonghe let out a long breath. He had finally bluffed Huang Aotian. If he didn't firmly grasp the initiative, she would definitely ride on Yun Zhonghe and mess around.
Yun Zhonghe had no choice but to first make her brain tired and then leave her aside to slowly recover on her own.
Next, it was time for Yun Zhonghe to face Youyue Zhenren head-on!
The private exchange between Mu Jixue and Yun Zhonghe was actually only a matter of a few breaths. In the eyes of others, it didn't delay for long. Afterwards, Mu Jixue retreated to the back, and Yun Zhonghe interacted with Youyue Zhenren.
Youyue Zhenren looked young and gave off a delicate feeling, but her aura and pressure were very strong. Yun Zhonghe felt some pressure standing in front of her.
Without a solid foundation and profound cultivation background, one would probably not even be able to utter a lie in front of her.
Youyue Zhenren had been examining Yun Zhonghe. She didn't expect that her Disciple and the young man before her seemed to have an unusual relationship, and she vaguely felt that the young man before her had an extraordinary destiny.
Upon reaching the Transforming Deleted Stage Realm, the Nascent Soul can connect with heaven and earth, and even perceive destiny. Under Youyue Zhenren's perception, she discovered that there was an intricate and close connection between Yun Zhonghe and Mu Jixue.
This connection was very peculiar, like lotus roots broken but fibers still connected, so viscous that it could be drawn into threads.
Even if they were forcibly separated, they would overlap again under the push of destiny.
Moreover, besides the close connection between the two of them, it seemed that they also had destinies connected to other places, but any more clues were beyond what her current cultivation could see clearly.
This couldn't help but make Youyue Zhenren pay more attention to Yun Zhonghe.
"Since it is Yun Gongzi, feel free to speak about the matter you entrusted to my Disciple."
Yun Zhonghe cupped his hands: "Zhenren, the content of my request is actually very simple. My Yun Family wants to transfer one of the Yun Family's spots. May I know if this is possible?"
Youyue Zhenren nodded: "That's fine. As long as it's your Yun Family's spot, the Yun Family can give it to whomever they wish."
Yun Zhonghe said solemnly: "Then I wish to bestow the spot to Miss Lin Zhongyu of the Lin Family!"
Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Female Lead Only Cares About Huang Mao
"I wish to bestow the spot to Miss Lin Zhongyu of the Lin Family!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire venue was shocked. Countless people who didn't understand the situation were full of questions, puzzled by Yun Zhonghe's actions.
This was the qualification to become a Disciple of Xuantian Sect. How many people were desperately trying to get it but couldn't? How many aristocratic families felt they had too few spots? Yet, Yun Zhonghe was generous enough to just give it away?
More importantly, he gave it to the well-known waste daughter of Cangzhou City.
Oh, I heard that her talent has slightly recovered recently, but how long has it been? Does she think she can pass the preliminary test?
"I thought this Yun Zhonghe had suddenly changed his ways, but it seems he's still a scoundrel as always."
"Look at the reaction of the Yun Family head. It's clear this is Yun Zhonghe's own idea."
"I heard that Yun Zhonghe and that Lin Zhongyu have been very close recently. He must have taken a liking to her, even going so far as to use a spot to please her."
"Even if he wanted to fool around with women, he wouldn't be so wasteful. It's truly tragic that the Yun Family gave birth to a fool like Yun Zhonghe."
Some people in the crowd started gossiping, especially those who didn't get the qualification. They were extremely sour, and their attacks on Yun Zhonghe were even more unbearable.
Every single one of these words fell into Lin Zhongyu's ears.
"No, unforgivable..."
Lin Zhongyu clenched her fists, her anger reaching its peak.
She didn't care how she herself was humiliated. Even if she was abandoned by her Father, she only felt extremely lost, nothing more.
But when others casually attacked Yun Zhonghe based on speculation, Lin Zhongyu was furious.
Yun Zhonghe was someone she respected very, very much. She absolutely would not allow others to slander him.
She must prove it! But not to prove that she was not a waste, but to make everyone understand that Yun Zhonghe was not the dissolute they spoke of, but a very, very excellent person.
She wanted to prove that Yun Zhonghe had not misjudged.
"Xiao Yu..."
Mu Jixue, standing on the high platform, also felt Lin Zhongyu's fiercely burning will, as if her entire being was radiating fighting spirit.
Her spirit, which had been crushed before, stood tall again because of Yun Zhonghe.
Mu Jixue's heart was complex. Lin Zhongyu was able to cheer up, but not because of her. At the same time, she was also astonished by Yun Zhonghe's actions, not expecting him to be able to do this much.
This spirit was indeed something she couldn't compare to.
For the first time, Mu Jixue had a feeling of willingly admitting defeat.
"Transferring a spot... Yun Family Head, can your son represent your Yun Family?"
Youyue Zhenren looked at Yun Chongtian, who was standing beside her with a bewildered expression, and sought confirmation.
As Yun Zhonghe's Father, Yun Chongtian didn't expect him to do such a thing, but at the same time, it wasn't surprising.
It was well known that Yun Chongtian doted on his son immensely. Although he always denied it, anyone could see that Yun Zhonghe's "lawlessness" was indulged by Yun Chongtian.
After all, as the head of the Yun Family, he had many important matters to attend to and was often not at home, causing a gradual rift between parents and child.
Yun Chongtian intentionally tried to mend the rift between Father and son, and was relatively lenient with him. However, he also had a headache over Yun Zhonghe's usual foolish behavior. As long as it wasn't a major incident, he would actively clean up Yun Zhonghe's messes, constantly sending people one by one to deliver money, compensation, and apologies.
But he didn't expect that now he even dared to casually give away the Family's important spot.
Yun Chongtian certainly didn't understand at first, but after the Father and son met each other's gaze, he hesitated again.
[Father, please trust me!]
Just like Lin Zhongyu pleaded with her Father, Yun Zhonghe also transmitted his voice into his Father's Sea of Consciousness.
Yun Chongtian was silent for a moment, then took a deep breath.
"Zhenren, my son can represent my Yun Family. His decision is my decision!"
Yun Chongtian chose to believe his son!
At that moment, Yun Zhonghe felt it was really good to have an open-minded Father.
Yun Zhonghe and Yun Chongtian, Father and son, exchanged a smile.
"Since that is the case, then one spot from the Yun Family will be transferred to Lin Zhongyu of the Lin Family. Lin Family, Lin Zhongyu, step forward for the test!"
Youyue Zhenren announced publicly, directly having Lin Zhongyu be the next to test.
The crowd was in an uproar.
Lin Zhongyu suddenly stood up. She walked towards the stage with steady steps, her golden eyes filled with determination.
She had never shown such sharpness before, as if she wanted to suppress all the doubts.
She had to prove herself!
Not for herself, but for Yun Zhonghe!
Yun, please watch me. I will definitely not disappoint you.
And Xue'er, please also watch me reclaim everything that should have belonged to me!
Lin Zhongyu held her head high and puffed out her chest. As she brushed past Yun Zhonghe and Mu Jixue, the collision of their gazes seemed to spark.
Yun Zhonghe's lips curved slightly, his gaze encouraging. Mu Jixue nervously clenched her fists and made a cheering gesture towards her.
Lin Zhongyu felt very happy. Although the journey had not been easy, two important people had made her persevere.
"Can Xiao Yu succeed?"
Watching Lin Zhongyu approach the test stone, Mu Jixue's heart started beating faster. Uneasily, she subconsciously grabbed Yun Zhonghe's hand.
Yun Zhonghe: "..."
Aotian, why are you pushing your hand into my palm? You should be holding the hands of the female leads.
Yun Zhonghe: "Don't worry, she can definitely do it."
Lin Zhongyu, standing before the test stone, paused for a moment. She took a deep breath, calmed her emotions, then focused all her attention on her palm and slowly pressed her hand onto the test stone.
Buzz—!
The test stone began to absorb Lin Zhongyu's spiritual energy. Streams of light golden spiritual energy flowed through and entered the test stone.
In an instant, the test stone lit up with dazzling golden light!
Suddenly, a deafening sound echoed throughout the entire venue.
"Lin Zhongyu, talent level Grade A Superior, cultivation Foundation Establishment Second Layer!"
"Overall rating Superior!"
The test stone doesn't speak. The one who shouted these two sentences was Comrade Yun Zhonghe.
There was no other way. When others saw the content on the test stone, they were all dumbfounded.
Only Yun Zhonghe, the head coach, could personally step forward, state the facts, and turn the dumbfounded crowd into a shocked crowd.
"Didn't they say she was a waste? How... how is she at Foundation Establishment Second Layer?!"
"Didn't this Lin Zhongyu just get beaten up in the Immortal Alliance a few days ago? I remember she was only at Qi Refining Fifth Layer back then!"
"This, this, this... Could it be that the test stone is broken?"
Countless sounds of shock rose and fell.
But Lin Zhongyu didn't care at all. Even the exclamations caused by her couldn't affect her emotions in the slightest. She just silently turned around and cast a nervous yet expectant look towards Yun Zhonghe.
Only Yun Zhonghe's reaction was what she wanted.
She saw that cold and handsome face finally reveal a slight smile.
Lin Zhongyu's eyes suddenly became a little moist.
Great! I didn't let Yun down!
