285 What Do Both of You Think? (2/2)

Leng Xiangyu was delighted at heart. Yet, she sighed to pretend to be sorry.

However, Gu Tianyi did not hide her amusement. She laughed, ”That’s what I said, how could she possibly be the chosen disciple? She’s obviously craving for something she’s not worthy for. How dare a useless trash address herself as the chosen one. So now she’s making a fool of herself in front of others?”

”Tianyi, don’t talk nonsense!” Leng Xiangyu reprimanded, ”After all, she is your sister. She’s also a lady from our General’s Residence. Moreover, Celestial Master Zuo hasn’t concluded anything yet.”

Only Celestial Master Zuo had the final say to decide whether or not she was the chosen disciple. The two great overlords were merely witnesses.

All of them turned their attention to Celestial Master Zuo, waiting for him to give the final verdict.

Instead, Di Fuyi was looking at Gu Xijiu. Gu Xijiu could not tell from his expression as a mask had covered up his face. She could only see that there was splendor in his eyes, but could not quite put a finger on what his mood was.

”How do you feel?” asked Di Fuyi. He was obviously asking Gu Xijiu, who had just been released from the chains of the pillar.

Gu Xijiu moved her hands and feet for a bit to feel the agility, ”Not bad.” There was something burning in her bloodstream, but it was bearable.

”You’re not the chosen disciple,” said Di Fuyi. He did not raise his voice, but it was loud enough to be heard across the square.

Gu Xijiu looked down, not saying a word.

The result of the test was expected. She was not surprised.

Initially, the people were not bewildered by the result. However, hearing the final announcement made by Di Fuyi himself had caused an uproar, regardless.

Even though the result was already within their expectation, people would still anticipate for a miracle of change to happen. Now that the revelation was made, it was completely expected – some were disappointed, shook their heads, hissed at the result, swore at it, while the rest were making fun of it.
