Chapter 111: “Fake Competition” and Undermining Someone (1)
Ye Yu and Yun Hua’s dorms were in the opposite direction of the Sect’s Mountain. After leaving the system with her unclear words, Ye Yu turned around and walked back.
The system was confused, asking, “What the host means is?…”
“You’ll see.”
Ye Yu didn’t explain anymore, speeding towards Yun Hua’s dorm.
On the way, she didn’t forget to find a corner to remove the makeup for the disguise of the “little fortune-teller” and then appear outside of Yun Hua’s dorm as Ye Yu.
In the beginning, no one was in the room. Ye Yu waited outside the room for about an hour before finally encountering Yun Hua who was heading back.
“Ye Yu?”
Seeing the person standing outside her room, Yun Hua seemed to be very shocked.
Ye Yu nodded at her and smiled, saying, “A few days ago, I invited lady Yun Hua over to my place as a guest. Since I was free today, I was thinking that I should pay Goddess Yun Hua a visit while I’m at it.”
Hearing Ye Yu addressing her as “Goddess” to tease her, like how the senior brothers of the Jian Sect had called her, Yun Hua found it funny but also helpless.
“Then let’s chat in my room?”
Ye Yu naturally agreed.
Once they were inside the room, Ye Yu steeped a pot of tea and they idley chatted for a bit before Ye Yu brought the topic to the immortal world’s competition.
Ye Yu’s expression turned bitter as Yun Hua talked about the Spirit Bud Realm’s competition under the latter’s guide.
“Sigh, I’ve become crazy lately because of senior brother Ye Fei.”
“…” Yun Hua whose attention was elsewhere had widened her eyes once she heard the name.
She subconsciously clutched her sleeves and glanced at Ye Yu silently.
However, Ye Yu said nothing else after that, so Yun Hua could only feel resentful in secret.
Yun Hua held in her emotions and asked tactfully, “How did senior brother Ye Fei force you?”
…She got the bait.
Ye Yu snapped her fingers in her heart, but concealed her emotions on the surface, glancing at Yun Hua with resentment.
“How else could he force me? Everyone within the sect knows that I am training under him and he has been supervising me daily and constantly. Since I entered the Spirit Bud Realm, I need to attend the immortal world’s competition and get first place. Otherwise, if I lose face for him, I’ll be bringing shame to his master and the Sect’s Mountain.”
Yun Hua’s gaze flickered and she extended her spiritual consciousness out of the room.
After a moment and confirming that no one was there, she helplessly laughed at Ye Yu. “Although I don’t know why you and him came to the Jian Sect, but I’ve seen your cultivation during the day of the tavern.”
“True, but I haven’t had my share of fun yet. I can’t be exposed and driven out of the sect.”
Ye Yu knitted her eyebrows and narrowed her eyes at Yun Hua, saying, “Why? You had enough of this? You want to reveal your true cultivation on the immortal world’s competition and be ‘invited’ down the mountain?”
“…”
Speaking of this, Yun Hua knitted her eyebrows.
“Plus, it can get more tragic than this.”
Ye Yu’s voice became even more resentful and she said, “Senior brother Ye Fei said that although when ordinary disciples had broken through the Spirit Bud Realm, there was no need for them to continue to train with their senior brothers. However, if I don’t get first place for the Spirit Bud Realm competition, he will take me to the back mountains of the Sect’s Mountain and train me one on one for an entire month!”
The moment Ye Yu said this, Yun Hua’s face slightly changed.
However, it seemed like Ye Yu hadn’t noticed it as she continued to talk in a dejected tone, “A whole month… I’ll be skinned by him.”
Yun Hua looked around as if she was thinking about something, but her expression became more and more unwell.
Moments later, she shifted her attention and forced a smile, saying, “You really think you can’t handle getting first place on the Spirit Bud Realm’s competition even without revealing your cultivation?”
“Naturally, the others are a piece of cake.” Ye Yu pursed her lips and said, “But there is one person that I’m not certain of.”
Yun Hua shifted toward and asked, “ — Who?”
“…”
Ye Yu slightly smiled and then glanced up, saying, “Of course it’s you. Goddess Yun Hua, I have a hunch about your true cultivation skills as well.”
Yun Hua sighed and then calmed down, smiling as she picked up the teacup.
“Well, I finally understand now. You want me to let you win.”
Ye Yu gently tugged Yun Hua’s sleeves and said, “Yun Hua, you probably won’t bear to see me being dragged by senior brother Ye Fei to the back mountains and skinned alive, right? If I actually spend an entire month training with him, I will really die!”
“…You’re living in bliss even though you don’t know it.”
Yun Hua mumbled to herself in a low voice.
“Ah? What are you talking about?”
“Nothing.”
Yun Hua raised her head and gently smiled, saying, “Don’t worry. If I encounter you on the competition, I’ll definitely help to free you from senior brother Ye Fei’s ‘evil clutches.’”
“That’s great. Goddess Yun Hua, you’re really my benefactor!”
“…”
After the burning of an entire incense stick, Ye Yu smiled and bid farewell to Yun Hua, turning around and entering into the bamboo forest outside of the dorm.
The system who had been holding this in for a while finally couldn’t keep it in anymore.
“Host, you’re really…”
“Hm?”
Ye Yu raised her tone and half-smiled, asking, “I really what?”
The system swallowed its original words and kissed up, saying insteading, “Smart. You’re incredibly smart!”
Ye Yu ‘humbly’ waved her hands and said, “It’s just a trick and it’s not worth mentioning.”
The system was speechless.
