720 Write a Chapter to Celebrate the Weekend on Friday (1/2)

”... Do you guys think people of Beast Taming School could cry?”

In Wang Lu's private courtyard in Immortal Five Area, he idly rotated his writing brush and asked the secretaries around him.

Some of the secretaries, who were temporarily transferred from Heavenly Sage Hall, were not familiar with Wang Lu's working style. In the face of this question, they were nervous and didn't know how to answer.

When they thought about the scene that happened not long ago… perhaps there were people of Beast Taming School that actually cried.

The Chief Secretary Hai Yunfan sighed. ”It was indeed terrible… In the field that they are expert at, they were being played like a monkey. In the eyes of millions of people, they completely lost their faces. I'm afraid those who participated in the match would find it hard to get away from the heart demon obstruction in the future. I completely didn't expect that Senior Gem Emperor would suddenly turn hostile in this match after behaving very nicely in the previous matches.”

Wang Lu smiled as he said, ”That's normal. In the first three matches, everything was fair and aboveboard. On the one hand, she needed to show her absolute crushing strength. On the other hand, she couldn't discard the Emperor's leniency and kindness—at least in contrast to the man in black's killing. So, of course, she deliberately made herself look good. However, in today's three matches, the first test was a test of intelligence. But since the dish washing match, it was clear that I was playing tricks on her. So it's strange if she didn't give a little punishment.”

After Wang Lu's explanation, the cultivators in the room finally felt enlightened. However, soon some people realized the deeper content and couldn't help but opened their eyes wide and showed an inconceivable look.

Hai Yunfan straightforwardly asked, ”So, you have already expected this result?”

Wang Lu said, ”I didn't expect it to happen—how could it be easy to guess the action of Senior Gem Emperor. However, to slap people, of course, you must be prepared to turn over your cheek. So this result can't be said to be unexpected, hahaha.”

”... In the end, it's intentional. How much do you hate the Beast Taming School? Was this due to your past grievance against them? Right now you're already in Jindan Stage, why do you remember the past's slight so dearly?”

Wang Lu waved hand and said, ”If I still keep my grudge for Beast Taming School, it's really easy to toss them around with my authority in the past six months.”

”Well, that's true…” Hai Yunfan thought for a moment and realized, ”Nevertheless, according to your plan, there must always a sect to be used as a guinea pig, and as it happened, Beast Taming School was the perfect match.”

Wang Lu said, ”Yes, a sage said that internally, one must not shun relatives, while externally one must not shun a virtuous person. I was just acting in accordance with the words of the sage.”

Hai Yunfan said with emotion, ”... If you keep being this shameless, sooner or later, you're going to become a sage.” After a pause, he asked again, ”By the way, did you see anything related to the secret of Senior Gem Emperor's omniscience and omnipotence?”

Wang Lu replied, ”I have some thoughts, but today after watching the matches all day, I haven't found any evidence to prove my conjecture. Senior Gem Emperor probably understood that I was using these tricks to test her, so she hid her cards well. The only thing that was clear is that under normal circumstances, she would never be as versatile as she is now.”

Hai Yunfan frowned and asked, ”In normal circumstances? Do you think she cheated?”

”Senior Gem Emperor is so proud of herself that she wouldn't do such things. At most, she used a cheap trick. No, even a cheap trick would betray her personality. However, I could feel that from the bottom of her heart, she felt that today's matches were beneath her. She thinks of herself as an emperor, so of course, she wouldn't bother to master these low-lying skills… But yet, she mastered them and is even better than those who are professionals. If she's not cheating, then what good reason could it be?”

At this point, the answer seemed to be on the verge of coming out into the open. But yet, it seemed to be covered with a veil, making it unclear.

This kind of only-one-step-away-to-the-finish-line feeling was difficult to bear. Hai Yunfan pondered for a long time at his desk before he finally gave up. ”Although I have all kinds of guesses, there is no way to make further reasoning according to the current conditions.”

Wang Lu said, ”Yes, the information is limited. And it's meaningless to rely on fantasy. So… it's time to gather some new information.”
