Chapter 91 - The Crazy Be (1/2)

t

The positions of Xiao Qingxue and Gong Yang were completely different.

Gong Yang was ranked in the top ten among the inner disciples, a super genius with a tenth-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit. His position in the sect was only slightly lower than the core disciples of the sect. If he ended up having a lucky encounter, he might even have the chance to become a core disciple.

The five elders might not be afraid of Xiao Qingxue, but they could not treat Gong Yang the same way.

Mo Li’s expression stiffened; he did not expect Gong Yang to be here too. He took a deep breath and said with a forced smile on his face, “Senior Brother Gong Yang, I’m afraid you’re mistaken. We’re just discussing the facts.”

The white-haired elder smilingly said, “Junior Brother Gong Yang, don’t be angry. Although our words were kind of harsh, you have to know that it’s extremely difficult for Qin Nan to survive considering the situation he got himself into.”

The other four elders nodded their heads in agreement, with pleasant smiles on their faces.

But deep within them, the five elders were feeling gloomy; they never expected Qin Nan, a mere fifth-layer Body Tempering Realm cultivator with an eighth-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit, would turn out to be close with Gong Yang.

After seeing this, Xiao Qingxue’s expression became calm, although a cold tone could still be sensed from her words, “Senior Brother Gong Yang, if anything were to happen to Qin Nan, it would be Mo Li’s fault.”

Upon hearing this, Mo Li was extremely terrified and instantly glimpsed at Gong Yang. He let out a sigh of relief after seeing Gong Yang’s calm expression.

If what happened to Qin Nan really caused Gong Yang to be angry toward him, that would be a disaster for him.

“I already know what happened at the White Jade Dojo.” Gong Yang nodded his head and said, “Don’t you worry, I don’t believe Junior Brother Qin Nan would die so easily.”

His confident tone caused everyone at the scene to be slightly startled.

Even Xiao Qingxue was quite surprised; she could not understand why Gong Yang was so confident in Qin Nan, even though he only had a brief contact with him which lasted less than a day.

After hearing this, Mo Li and the five elders felt the urge to laugh out, but they did not display this due to Gong Yang’s presence.

Despite their intention to remain silent, it was Gong Yang who turned to them and calmly said, “I heard that you all were discussing a bet just then. That’s quite interesting. Can I join too?”

The five elders and Mo Li wore shocked expressions after hearing the words.

The white-haired elder hesitated for a moment, before he smilingly said, “Junior Brother Gong Yang, maybe we should skip the bet this time? Our words were indeed stepping over the boundary, as Qin Nan does have a chance to survive on the Island of Versatility.”

Although the elders did assume Qin Nan would surely die in the trial;, firstly, they were not fond of him, and secondly, it served as a way to mock Xiao Qingxue indirectly.

However, since the destination of the transportation portal was randomized, after knowing he was being targeted by Ling Zixiao’s two hundred and twenty disciples, Qin Nan could instead find a place to hide for a month, which would guarantee his safety.

Not to mention that, the five elders would not want to offend Gong Yang, thus rejecting the offer for the bet.

Gong Yang appeared to have read their thoughts, as he said, “It’s still possible to have a bet, but not on Qin Nan’s life, as he is sure to survive. Let’s bet if Qin Nan is able to achieve the top five places in the trial!”

Everyone was incredibly shocked by the words.

Qin Nan achieving the top five spots?

Achieving the top five spots after offending Ling ZIxiao and the two hundred and twenty disciples?

Is Gong Yang out of his mind?

“Senior Brother Gong Yang…”

Xiao Qingxue blurted out. Even she could not believe Qin Nan would be ranked in the top five; even top ten would be impossible, not to mention top five.

She would be satisfied if Qin Nan were able to survive from the Trial of Versatility.

“It’s ok; I know what I’m doing.” Gong Yang interrupted Xiao Qingxue, and stared directly at the five elders and Mo Li with a sharp gaze, and continued to apply pressure, “So? I thought you guys look down on him; if that’s the case, why are you guys so afraid to accept my bet? If you guys chose not to participate, then you all have to apologize for your previous words!”

At that instant, Gong Yang completely displayed the aura and prestige as a top ten inner disciple.

The five elders and Mo Li’s faces turned cold at the same time.
