Although Dongfang Yue’s words were rather impolite, they were the truth.

Back then, he didn’t like yaoji very much because she and Wu Yan were too troublesome. They had a small fight every three days and a big fight every five days, making the Divine Master’s estate a mess. They were also very good at pretending. They were absolutely unbelievably obedient in front of master Yu, but they were completely different in private.

At the time, he didn’t want to get involved in the two troublesome Women’s Affairs, so he ignored them. However, after going through thick and thin with yaoji for so long, even if he didn’t like her, he had developed some feelings for her and was more tolerant of her. Now, he knew he was wrong. This woman couldn’t be nice to her, or she would definitely push herself over him!

Dongfang Yue’s words made yaoji extremely excited. Then, she roared in anger,””Do you want to erase my contribution? What benefits did Leng ruoxue give you to make you treat me like this? We’ve known each other for so many years, and you’re actually helping an outsider! I’m so disappointed in you!”

At this moment, yaoji was so angry that she couldn’t care about respecting Dongfang Yue anymore. Otherwise, she would never have dared to yell at him like this in the past. But now, she was surrounded by anger and resentment, so she naturally couldn’t care about being afraid!

“You’ve contributed, but there are many people who have contributed more than you. No one is as ignorant as you. Furthermore, Leng ruoxue is not an outsider! She’s master Yu’s disciple!” Dongfang Yue explained patiently.

However, yaoji scoffed at Dongfang Yue’s words. She sneered a few times and then said loudly,””Master Yu’s disciple? How could she be considered master Yu’s disciple! Hmph! Don’t you remember that when master Yu accepted her as his disciple, he had already passed away. She was only lucky to obtain master Yu’s inheritance. Unfortunately, she can’t get our recognition! Hahaha!”

In the divinity, taking in a disciple was an extremely important matter. With Xiang Yu’s status, it was an even more glorious thing to become his disciple. Therefore, the Emperor should announce to the world that he was taking in a disciple. As for Leng ruoxue, when she became his disciple, he had already passed away. Hence, in the eyes of yaoji and the others, her identity as a disciple was not justified and not justified. Otherwise, yaoji would not have dared to go against Leng ruoxue in every way!

Other than Leng ruoxue’s beauty, yaoji was also jealous of her identity! From her point of view, Leng ruoxue’s luck was simply too good! It was so good that it was unbearable! Hence, she was jealous of Leng ruoxue.

“Who says she can’t get our recognition?” Yaoji’s words made Dongfang Yue frown again before he replied indifferently.

“Eh? What do you mean by that? Could it be that you want to recognize her as your master? No! I won’t agree to it!” Yaoji quickly shouted after hearing the hidden meaning in Dongfang Yue’s words.

“It doesn’t matter whether you agree or not. Furthermore, I can tell you right now that after our discussion, we feel that Leng ruoxue definitely has the ability to make us pledge our loyalty. As for you, just wait for your punishment!” Dongfang Yue said coldly.

With that, he turned and left yaoji’s room without even looking at her.

After Dongfang Yue left, yaoji collapsed on the bed as if all the strength in her body had been sucked out.

After a long time.

Only then did yaoji pull herself together and Mutter to herself,””No! I will not allow such a thing to happen, I will not allow a woman to ride on my head!”

At this thought, yaoji was so excited that she forgot about her injuries and wanted to get off the bed. However, the sudden pain made her legs go soft and she fell to the ground.

“Dammit!” Rubbing her aching leg, yaoji bit her pink lips in anger. It was all Leng ruoxue’s fault that she was in such a miserable state! At this moment, she had long forgotten that the knife that had cut her leg belonged to her. Instead, she had pushed all the blame onto Leng ruoxue. Only then would she feel more at ease.

Some people were like this. It was clearly their own fault, but they couldn’t see their own shortcomings. When something happened, they were unwilling to find the reason on themselves and liked to blame everything on others. Obviously, yaoji was this kind of person.

After sitting on the ground and resting for a while, yaoji managed to get up with great difficulty. She then supported herself with the wall and left the room.

She didn’t believe Dongfang Yue’s words anymore, so she had to verify them one by one.

After one round, yaoji’s heart sank to the bottom, and her heart ached even more.

She had asked many people about their opinions on Leng ruoxue, but to her surprise, many people who had the same thoughts as her had changed their minds. They were just as Dongfang Yue had said, almost all of them had acknowledged Leng ruoxue!

And with her questioning, those people’s attitude towards her had also changed greatly. Those who admired her were no longer obedient to her! This fact made her very disappointed.

No! She would never acknowledge Leng ruoxue. She would never acknowledge her! At the same time, she would never allow those people to give her the cold shoulder. She was yaoji, a yaoji who was as famous as rime ice. Back then, the two of them were known as the number one beauties in the divine realm! Although there were not many people who remembered her now, her pride was still there! Her pride wouldn’t allow her to fall into such a desolate situation where she was deserted by her loved ones!

Yaoji, who was sent back to her room, lay on the bed in anger. Her heart was in turmoil, and the more she thought about it, the deeper her hatred for Leng ruoxue deepened.

She deeply felt that it was all Leng ruoxue’s fault that she was being ignored. Hence, she would never let Leng ruoxue off. She wanted Leng ruoxue to Taste the Feeling of being ignored.

With that thought, yaoji miraculously calmed down.

In the days that followed, yaoji seemed to have changed into a different person. Not only did she stay in her room quietly to recuperate, but she also treated the visitors with a kind expression. She even got someone to pass a message to Dongfang Yue, saying that she knew she was in the wrong and wanted to sincerely apologize to Leng ruoxue.

When Leng ruoxue found out about this, she only smiled and did not have any other reaction. As for Dongfang Yue and the others, they couldn’t believe that yaoji would really change her opinion of Leng ruoxue. However, if the two of them could get along peacefully, they would definitely welcome them. After all, they had been with yaoji for so many years. No matter how unpopular yaoji was, this kind of friendship that went through thick and thin together was hard to erase!

Yaoji’s change also made Dongfang Yue and the others pause their plans to punish her and adopt a wait-and-see attitude. After all, Xie Ling still had to be a Ling person, and yaoji was responsible for this matter. If she could take the initiative to admit her mistake and obtain Leng ruoxue’s forgiveness, that would be the best.

Yaoji didn’t disappoint them. After she recovered from her injuries, she started to hang out with Leng ruoxue every day. Her enthusiasm made Leng ruoxue feel uneasy. Because this didn’t seem like something yaoji would do!

However, in order to cooperate with yaoji, Leng ruoxue decided to wait and see.

With that, her courtyard became more and more lively. Dongfang Yue and the others took advantage of the situation and took the opportunity to bond with Leng ruoxue.

It was a pity that no matter what they did, Leng ruoxue remained indifferent. This fact almost drove many people crazy.

On a certain day.

As usual, Leng ruoxue was lying on a recliner in the garden. At this moment, Dongfang Lin walked in with a group of guards. Leng ruoxue raised her brows in confusion when she saw Dongfang Lin’s posture. She thought to herself,’when did this fellow learn to put on airs?’ However, who was he putting on airs for?

“Is there something?” Leng ruoxue lifted her eyelids and asked calmly.

“Something happened! The elders will need your help with the investigation. ” In just one night, 80% of the people in the castle had been poisoned. The remaining 20% were extremely weak. The only ones who were not affected were the reverent-god level experts, Leng ruoxue, and the others.

“Is it related to me?” Leng ruoxue said.

“Someone has pointed out that you were the one who poisoned him!” Dongfang Lin was speechless. He would never believe that Leng ruoxue would do such a thing. Even though he had not known Leng ruoxue for a long time, he still trusted her.

However, this matter had already spread throughout the entire underground city and had a very bad influence. Hence, he had no choice but to put on an act and look for Leng ruoxue. His motive was naturally to hope that she could clarify this matter in front of all the residents in the underground city!

After hearing what he said, Leng ruoxue finally understood Dongfang Lin’s motive.

“I’ll go and explain it to you!” Leng ruoxue stood up and spoke to Dongfang Lin calmly. With that, she walked out of the courtyard and headed towards the meeting hall. The moment Dongfang Lin saw her, he immediately brought his men to follow her.

As she walked into the meeting hall, Leng ruoxue realized that the large hall was already filled with people. Of course, most of these people were elders with high status in the underground city. Out of caution, a few consecrators were also present.

Initially, the discussion hall was still very lively and many people were whispering to each other. However, the moment Leng ruoxue appeared, the hall immediately quieted down. Many people looked at Leng ruoxue with conflicted expressions.

Leng ruoxue’s beautiful eyes swept across the crowd. Then, she took the initiative to find a chair and sit down.

“Miss Leng, many people in the castle have been poisoned. I think you should be clear about this matter!” Dongfang Yue glanced at Leng ruoxue and said in a reserved manner.

Because he was only here to get Leng ruoxue to cooperate with the investigation, Dongfang Yue’s attitude was very good. Furthermore, he didn’t believe that Leng ruoxue would do such a thing. It was really unnecessary! In this case, this matter was worth pondering over …
