Chapter 734: 736, Hatred (first update)

Mo Zhixuan cast a thoughtful glance at several Elders, narrowed his phoenix eyes, and could tell that Su Yuqiao was here specifically for Xi He.

On this side, Mu Xianxian and Shangguan Lingluo were pressing step by step against Gan Yuying.

Throughout, Gan Yuying had been protecting Chu Jin behind her, reassuring her, "Jin, all you need to do is stand till the end! Leave the rest to me!"

"Heh," Shangguan Lingluo let out a cold laugh, pointed at Chu Jin with her hand, and said, "Miss Chu, I heard you’re the reincarnation of the ancient Empress. Today I’ve finally seen it, the ancient Empress is nothing more than this! Weakling!"

As Shangguan Lingluo said the last sentence, a strong disdain appeared in her eyes.

Weakling?

Chu Jin slightly raised an eyebrow, pulled Gan Yuying, who was protecting her, aside, snapped her fingers, and chuckled, "Shangguan Lingluo, I wonder if you’ve ever heard a saying, ’Your dad will always be your dad,’ even though I was born in the mortal realm, I’m still your dad."

Her manner didn’t put Shangguan Lingluo in her eyes at all.

Just as she had previously said, ordinary people could still triumph over them!

"Jin!" Gan Yuying quickly tried to stop Chu Jin.

With Chu Jin’s mere mortal body, she was actually thinking of provoking Shangguan Lingluo, the Spirit Country Empress, wasn’t this akin to a moth fluttering into a flame?

It wasn’t scary not to have power; what was frightening was that she didn’t even recognize her own limitations, and was in a hurry to rush to her death.

Having such a pig-headed teammate was really infuriating for Gan Yuying.

Chu Jin was really something, always insisting on having the last word in a quarrel. Wouldn’t it be nice to listen obediently and win by lying low?

"Stand there!" Chu Jin glanced sideways at Gan Yuying, "Don’t move!"

The title of the ancient Empress wasn’t for nothing.

With just those few words, Gan Yuying froze in place, daring not to go near Chu Jin any longer.

A very strange feeling.

Even Gan Yuying didn’t know what was happening, and the others were also shaken in their hearts,

The might of the Empress was something no one could resist.

The comments exploded again.

"Damn, that’s so domineering!"

"Who doesn’t know how to act tough?"

"Wait for my Empress to slap them in the face!"

"What else does Chu Jin know besides acting tough? She thinks she can stand up to the great Empress? Wishful thinking!"

"Anyway, the Little Princess is there to protect her. If someone was protecting me, I’d dare to talk big too."

"Chu Jin is really disappointing."

"She’s going to kneel down now!"

"Sigh, is the Little Princess stupid? To be friends with such a person, and even protect her!"

"Big-breasted but brainless, all talk no action!"

"Just wait to die."

"My great Empress is mighty!"

And here, Shangguan Lingluo didn’t put Chu Jin in her eyes at all.

Today, she was determined to secure the position of Ninth Lady.

What was Chu Jin? An obsolete Empress, a commoner from the mortal realm; what made her think she could compete with her!

In a moment, she planned to harshly throw Chu Jin off the stage, turning her into a paralyzed cripple.

"You still speak so boldly when you’re near death!" Shangguan Lingluo narrowed her eyes, turned her hand into a knife, and directly slashed at Chu Jin’s face.

The speed was lightning fast!

Impossible to avoid.

Chu Jin didn’t dodge either, simply watching as Shangguan Lingluo attacked, her clear, peach-blossom eyes clearly reflecting a hint of chilling cold light.

Just as Chu Jin was about to be hit solidly by that knife, Gan Yuying was startled and, without further thought, flashed forward, trying to push Chu Jin away. At that moment, Mu Xianxian suddenly pounced towards Gan Yuying, blocking her action.

Chu Jin was Mu Xianxian’s biggest rival, so naturally, Mu Xianxian couldn’t allow Gan Yuying to ruin her plans.

Mu Xianxian and Gan Yuying tangled in mid-air.

Meanwhile, Shangguan Lingluo was fiercely lunging straight at Chu Jin.

Impregnated with a fierce intent to kill.

The spectators on the scene and those in front of the screens were also stunned.

Their eyes widened, fearing they might miss something.

Just when everyone thought Chu Jin was doomed, she gently raised her hand, and a pale violet thunder and lightning condensed in her palm, gripping Shangguan Lingluo’s descending wrist just like that.

The thunder and lightning instantly entwined around Shangguan Lingluo’s wrist.

Line by line.

Heart-stopping.

The situation reversed within three seconds.

Shangguan Lingluo’s eyes widened, disbelief filling their depths.

Spiritual Power!

She actually saw Spiritual Power on Chu Jin!

Wasn’t Chu Jin a mere commoner? How could she possess Spiritual Power?

How could this be?

Chu Jin lowered her gaze to Shangguan Lingluo, the smile at the corners of her mouth very obvious, and she exerted force.

"Crack." The sound of bones breaking.

"Ah!" Shangguan Lingluo’s face turned pale, and she cried out in pain, her entire face contorting.

Although Chu Jin held Shangguan Lingluo’s right hand, her left hand was free to move.

Indeed, she had underestimated Chu Jin.

A fierce and venomous light flashed through Shangguan Lingluo’s drooping eyes.

She had to win today’s competition at any cost.

The position of Ninth Lady must be hers! No one was going to snatch it away from her!

Shangguan Lingluo’s left hand curved slightly, and several black beads appeared in her palm. Taking advantage of Chu Jin’s distraction, she threw the beads directly at Chu Jin.

Chu Jin slightly narrowed her eyes and plucked a card out of thin air.

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"

Just one card sliced the five beads in mid-air cleanly in half.

Seizing the opportunity, the two women who were originally attacking Xi He exchanged glances, took up their weapons, and lunged directly towards Chu Jin.

These two were among Spirit Country’s top assassins, arranged by Shangguan Lingluo to enter the fray.

But Chu Jin didn’t pay much mind to the two women charging at her, directly gripping Shangguan Lingluo’s wrist, and with a slight buildup of force, lifted Shangguan Lingluo entirely off the ground.

It was unimaginable that such a slender woman could lift another woman off the ground with such ease.

The whole scene was somewhat silent.

One must know, the person being lifted by Chu Jin was the Empress of Spirit Country.

The previous number one seed player.

Now, the person ranked first is unbelievably being lifted by the person ranked last! This is simply inconceivable!

The barrage on the screen went crazy with phrases like "666!", "Empress V587," "Awesome, bro," and more.

However, everything was far from over.

Chu Jin, holding Shangguan Lingluo’s wrist, flicked gently, and in an instant, her body, like a kite with its string cut, violently plummeted towards the ground below! She crashed directly into the two women who were rushing at Chu Jin!

"Bang bang bang!"

Three loud noises as the three of them fell to the ground below.

It was these three loud noises that snapped everyone back to reality, and the crowd below excitedly stood up, screaming "Ahhh!" at the top of their lungs.

The entire venue boiled to its peak.

Gan Yuying was also completely stunned. She couldn’t believe Chu Jin had such a move up her sleeve, as she hadn’t sensed any Spiritual Power from Chu Jin.

This situation also pointed to one possibility.

Chu Jin belonged to the second type of person, whose Spiritual Power could hide automatically.

A person who had grown up in the secular world possessing such profound Spiritual Power! It was truly terrifying!

Only then did Gan Yuying realize that the words Chu Jin said before the match began were not empty boasts!

Taking advantage of Gan Yuying’s daze, Mu Xianxian transformed her open palm into a fist and viciously launched a sneak attack on Gan Yuying!

Now, Chu Jin had already taken care of three out of the eight people!

She had to seize this opportunity to take down Gan Yuying!

Watching that fist about to smash into Gan Yuying’s body.

Just as it was about to be too late, in a flash.

Chu Jin turned into a bolt of lightning and appeared in front of Gan Yuying, delivering a cool spinning kick!

"Bang."

Mu Xianxian’s whole body was kicked into the air, crashing into the guardrail on the platform, but instead of falling down, her body got stuck against it.

"Jin! You are so awesome!" Gan Yuying immediately showed stars in her eyes toward Chu Jin.

"Of course," Chu Jin raised an eyebrow slightly, proudly saying, "Otherwise, why would everyone call me ’Bro Jin’?"

"From now on, I’ll also call you ’Bro Jin,’" Gan Yuying was quickly conquered, "Bro Jin, Bro Jin, please accept my knees!"

Gan Yuying threw all the thoughts of idols and Su Yuqiao out of her head at that moment.

Now, all she could see was Chu Jin.

Meanwhile, the barrage went wild with phrases like "Bro Jin 666666!"

Those two phrases—

"Mere mortals can still be abused just the same." and "Your daddy will always be your daddy!"

They became an instant hit across the internet.

Suddenly, the whole three realms were spamming these two phrases.

"My goddess is so tsundere."

"Gan Yuying is totally flabbergasted."

"Haha, the goddess is being naughty again!"

"Daddy Jin, are you by any chance still in need of children?"

"Daddy Jin V587!"

"Worthy of being the reincarnation of the Empress! Such grace! Such aura! Such Kung Fu! Tsk tsk tsk..."

"Those who looked down on my Bro Jin, are you getting slapped in the face now?"

"The one talking about a slap, don’t leave! Who was it that said mortals have no shame during the preliminary rounds?"

"Ouch, that slap, smack smack smack! That’s so loud."

"The Spirit Country Empress truly has lost face this time."

"It’s proven that the ancient Empress is much more formidable than the Spirit Country Empress."

"Daddy Jin is so amazing!"

"Starting today, Bro Jin is my goddess!"

The entire arena, except for the sounds of Su Yuqiao and Xi He fighting, had no other noise.

You could tell that Su Yuqiao probably held a personal grudge against Xi He, so Chu Jin didn’t interfere with those two and instead approached Mu Xianxian. Looking down at her from her high vantage point, she slowly said, "How about it, Mu Xianxian? What do you think, should you jump down yourself, or should I personally send you down?"

Although Chu Jin was smiling, there wasn’t a hint of mirth in her eyes.

She had disliked Mu Xianxian for a long time.

Today was a good opportunity to teach her a lesson.

Chu Jin had thought that if Mu Xianxian could turn over a new leaf, that would have been the end of it.

But contrary to her expectations, not only did Mu Xianxian not mend her ways, she became even more extreme.

Looking at Chu Jin, Mu Xianxian’s eyes flickered with evasion. She had planned to hide there, quietly healing herself until Chu Jin took care of everyone else and then take the chance to sneak attack Chu Jin, dealing her a fatal blow.

That would be the real ’sparrow behind’.

But she never expected Chu Jin to not overlook her.

She was actually being told to jump down herself.

She had already been embarrassed enough for one day, why couldn’t Chu Jin let her go, taking the opportunity to humiliate her further?

Chu Jin, this vile person! She never had good intentions right from the start.

The more Mu Xianxian thought about it, the angrier she became, her hands balled into fists, her body trembling all over.

"Well?" Chu Jin slowly curved her lips into a smile, "Will you jump, or shall I throw?"

Though Mu Xianxian was very angry, she still had some rationality. She knew that in such a moment, she was no match for Chu Jin.

Staying alive was the most important thing.

Jumping down by herself was always better than being thrown off by Chu Jin.

Just wait, she would have her revenge one day.

Mu Xianxian got up from the ground, spread her arms, and just like that, leaped off the platform.

Since she jumped down herself, Mu Xianxian’s landing was quite graceful.

It was as if a fairy descended from the heavens.

Over there, Su Yuqiao and Xi He were engaged in intense battle.

Su Yuqiao looked extremely serious, every move lethal, and Xi He was beginning to feel overwhelmed.

And yet, Su Yuqiao continued to press forward relentlessly.

"Bang!"

The curved blade in Su Yuqiao’s hand shattered the red threads in Xi He’s grip.

Flecks of red fluttered in the air.

Like falling snowflakes, it was quite a beautiful sight.

Her weapon destroyed, a look of disbelief flashed through Xi He’s eyes. Her red threads might have seemed ordinary, but they were actually made from thousand-year-old profound iron. No one in this world could destroy them.

But she had never imagined that they would be destroyed by Su Yuqiao’s hand today.

Xi He could see that Su Yuqiao harbored a deep hatred for her.
