797 The Truth Surfaces (1/2)
Qian Ye's status was unquestionable.
As the leader of Ling Yun Tower and one of the strongest people in the Holy Region, why did she choose to move together with Fang Zhengzhi like the rest of Ling Yun Tower's disciples?
No one could believe what they were seeing, just like how they couldn't believe a three-legged toad could only jump as high as a two-legged toad.
After all, it was an undisputed fact that the former had one extra leg than the latter.
Fang Zhengzhi didn't know if Qian Ye was a three-legged toad, but since she chose to 'jump'… No, since she chose to 'move', Fang Zhengzhi felt responsible to remind that her that as a three-legged… As the leader of Ling Yun Tower, she needed to be more reserved.
As a result, the eerie silence was eventually broken by Fang Zhengzhi's unrestrained laughter.
”Hahaha…” His laughter echoed in the air, piercing the hearts of the disciples of Ling Yun Tower, including Cang Yue, like a bunch of razor-sharp needles.
He didn't care, because he didn't need to. Truth be told, if he wasn't as powerful, he would have been killed more than a thousand times for what he had done.
In that case, let's keep going.
Since Qian Ye was already moving like the rest of Ling Yun Tower's disciples, Fang Zhengzhi was going to treat her equally.
”Seems like the leader is interested in joining us as well!”
”Why don't you make some noise too?”
”Your disciples are already on the verge of collapsing. If you don't start 'moving', all of them would be goners. Do you really want all of them to die?”
”Oh, let me guess what you are thinking… Are you trying to use their lives to test the number of Dao techniques that I have acquired?”
”You don't have to do that, because you could simply ask me if you wanted to know. You can ask me as loudly as possible, because I won't tell you anyway!”
”There is definitely another way of doing this. You can choose to beg for it sincerely if you are bold enough to do that. Nevertheless, I wouldn't tell you the answer. However, since you would have already tried and enjoyed the process of begging me, the result doesn't matter anymore, does it?”
”…”
”That's enough!” A cold voice interrupted and stopped Fang Zhengzhi from babbling. The red light in front of Ling Yun Tower also disappeared at the same time.
”Leader!”
”We weren't good enough!”
”Please punish us!”
All the disciples knelt down almost instantaneously. Their faces were almost touching the ground, but no one dared to raise her head.
This wasn't a spectacular scene, because almost half of the disciples had already collapsed. It looked messy and uneven rather than being a uniform formation.
Qian Ye glanced at the disciples kneeling on the ground in a messy manner, and her chest was going up and down slightly. Instead of scolding them right away, she stood quietly on the spot, but her expression was cold as ice.
This wasn't a long fight.
However, since the test began, more than two hours had already passed, so it was already approaching noon.
The warm mind blew past her golden dress as the golden light shone on her body. She looked like a saint.
The only pity was the fact that she didn't look too pleased. In fact, her face was extremely black. Even though her face was supposed to be as white as snow, it looked like an inkstone at the moment.
As the leader of Ling Yun Tower, she had never felt so humiliated before!
Even though Qian Ye lived by the principle of endurance and constantly told herself to stay calm, that she must stay calm, she was almost losing it.
She clenched her fists tightly, making a cracking sound as she crushed the air in her palms. The golden light screen on top of her head also started flowing and gathering like they were streams of water, eventually forming giant and vortex-like light spots.
Nine gigantic and revolving light spots appeared above her head almost instantly, looking like stars in the sky.
Nine stars were aligned in a single line!
”Leader, are you going to break your promise?” Said Fang Zhengzhi as he looked towards the nine rotating 'golden stars' in the air.
”So what if I am?” Qian Ye replied coldly, and the nine golden starts started shining more brightly than before.
”Seems like I'm right that the leader of Ling Yun Tower doesn't care about the lives of her disciples at all, apart from being a dishonest bastard.” Fang Zhengzhi said that with a smile, completely unfazed by Qian Ye's anger.
”Hmph, are you trying to provoke me?” The golden light in Qian Ye's eyes looked like it was going to flow out.
”I'm not really provoking you. I'm just guessing… Why would you rather sacrifice so many disciples than tell me the truth instead? Is there a huge hidden secret involved? Let me take a guess, did Yu Er find out about the unspeakable things that you had done?” Fang Zhengzhi shook his head and said.
