Chapter 711: Who is so blind?

~7 min read 1,365 words

Seeing Kong Yu and the other two looking toward him.

Wang Jianqiang's face turned pale, then, as if to muster his courage, he puffed out his chest and said loudly, "You lost to Third Miss, yet you are the only ones who haven't kowtowed to apologize to Third Miss; this is unreasonable."

"A piece of trash at the Qi Refining First Layer, and you dare to lecture us on reason?"

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, the three men's faces darkened, and a thick murderous intent flashed in their eyes.

A mere Qi Refining First Layer Cultivator was someone they could kill with a single glance.

It was only because this place was the territory of the Beast Taming Sect that they ultimately held back.

They let out a cold snort.

And continued walking toward the outside of the Square.

"Wait~"

Just at this moment.

Another voice came.

The three men frowned and looked toward Yang Yuntian.

Yang Yuntian looked directly at the three and said indifferently, "What that little brother just said was correct; since you lost, why not kneel to the person you made the wager with?"

"She is the one you should be kowtowing to and apologizing to the most, isn't she?"

"If you leave just like this, can I still consider that you have not completed the penalty you set for yourselves?"

Hearing Yang Yuntian's words, the three men's faces turned livid.

But thinking that everyone else had already knelt, if they failed to complete this final kowtow.

And the reputation of evading the wager spread, leading to the Beast Taming Sect pursuing them, that would be a huge loss.

Thinking of this.

The three exchanged a glance.

And then made their decision.

Simultaneously, they knelt and apologized to Zhou Qingyu.

"I am sorry, it was our arrogance."

After the three kowtowed, they sprang up from the ground quickly.

They looked at Wang Jianqiang with cold eyes.

Having no face to stay any longer, they slunk away from the Square.

After the three left.

Wang Jianqiang seemed to lose all his courage, his legs turning weak.

He stumbled backward and sat back down on the chair behind him.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Qingyu's expression was startled.

She flashed to Wang Jianqiang's side and said with a face full of worry, "Wang Daniu, are you alright?"

Wang Jianqiang looked at Zhou Qingyu and shook his head with a pale face, "Third Miss, I am fine, it's just..."

"I was a bit scared."

Saying this, he lowered his head, appearing somewhat embarrassed.

Hearing this, Zhou Qingyu let out a long sigh of relief.

Wang Daniu's cultivation was too weak.

And those three men's cultivation was too powerful.

If the three had used even a little bit of their means, Wang Daniu would not have been able to withstand it.

Fortunately.

Things did not develop in the direction she had just been worrying about.

"It's good that you're fine."

She patted his shoulder lightly, seeing that Wang Daniu was still keeping his head down, looking full of embarrassment.

She smiled, "Wang Daniu, do you know, you were so brave today; if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have dared to compete with that Kong Yu."

Hearing Zhou Qingyu's words, Wang Jianqiang finally raised his head and scratched his head bashfully, "Third Miss, I was just biting the bullet when I stood up back then."

Seeing the look of embarrassment on Wang Jianqiang's face fade quite a bit, Zhou Qingyu laughed.

She continued to praise him.

Wang Jianqiang felt encouraged, and his expression gradually relaxed completely.

Just as the two were talking.

A Spirit Light suddenly flashed beside them, and a figure appeared.

Zhou Qingyu stopped her conversation with Wang Jianqiang, looked at the person who had arrived, and then was taken aback, bowing slightly to the person, "Greetings, Senior Brother Yang."

Yang Yuntian smiled and shook his head, "Junior Sister, no need for such formalities."

Zhou Qingyu smiled.

Then, as if thinking of something, her expression shifted, "Senior Brother Yang, rest assured, Junior Sister will definitely repay the Medicinal Herb within three days."

Hearing this, Yang Yuntian laughed, "Junior Sister has misunderstood; Yang is not here to collect a debt."

"But specifically to thank you."

"If you hadn't defeated that Kong Yu today and regained face for my Beast Taming Sect, Yang's fault would have been great."

"As for those Medicinal Herb, just consider them a gift from Yang to Junior Sister."

Zhou Qingyu did not exchange too many pleasantries with Yang Yuntian and nodded, "In that case, many thanks, Senior Brother Yang."

Yang Yuntian shook his head with a wry smile, "Junior Sister is too polite; Yang said it before, it should be me thanking you."

"Brother Yuntian."

Just at this moment, a figure suddenly darted out from behind.

They arrived before Yang Yuntian with a face full of excitement.

Hearing the newcomer's form of address, Yang Yuntian's expression shifted, and he turned his head to look.

When he saw the newcomer's appearance clearly, he frowned, "Ximen Qi?"

"I didn't expect Brother Yuntian to still remember my name."

Upon hearing this, an expression of excitement appeared on Ximen Qi's face.

Yang Yuntian nodded indifferently.

Normally, for a New Student Disciple like this who had only recently joined the sect.

Even if their talent was quite good.

They would still not have the qualifications to strike up a conversation with him.

However, hindered by the relationship between the Yang Family and the Ximen Family, he did not directly leave the other party aside.

But there was not much warmth in his words.

"Is there something?"

Ximen Qi shook his head with a fawning smile, "Nothing, it's just that at today's Pill Gathering, I never found an opportunity to speak with Brother Yuntian."

"I came specifically to greet you."

Yang Yuntian nodded, "Junior Brother Ximen, Yang is currently unable to attend to matters of catching up; let us chat another day."

Having finished speaking, Yang Yuntian looked toward Zhou Qingyu and revealed a gentle smile once more.

He began to chat with Zhou Qingyu in a polite manner.

Seeing Yang Yuntian's such obvious differential treatment.

Ximen Qi's expression stiffened; he looked at Zhou Qingyu, his expression shifted, and he spoke,

"Junior Sister Zhou, you saw that Kong Yu and the others were about to leave, yet you still recklessly provoked them, and in the subsequent competition, you were even more arrogant by refining a Pill you are not skilled at refining."

"Such behavior, without any consideration for Brother Yuntian's situation, nearly brought great trouble upon Brother Yuntian; it is truly quite improper."

"Fortunately, you were lucky and won against that Kong Yu; otherwise, the face of my Beast Taming Sect would have been completely lost by you, and Brother Yuntian would also have been implicated because of you."

"Why don't you hurry and apologize to Brother Yuntian?"

Ximen Qi's preachy words directly interrupted the conversation between Zhou Qingyu and Yang Yuntian.

Zhou Qingyu glanced at Ximen Qi, a cold sneer in her heart.

Yang Yuntian's brows also furrowed slightly.

Sensing Yang Yuntian's expression, Ximen Qi felt a surge of joy in his heart.

The reason he had spoken like that just now was to avoid the important and dwell on the trivial, attempting to cover up the result by magnifying Zhou Qingyu's "mistakes."

To reverse Yang Yuntian's impression of Zhou Qingyu.

After hearing his words, Yang Yuntian was indeed somewhat dissatisfied.

His strategy had worked!

He was thrilled inside, becoming more and more enthusiastic as he spoke.

"Back then, when you tried to curry favor with me and asked me to bring you into the Pill Gathering, I didn't agree because I knew your personality and feared you would cause trouble for Brother Yuntian."

"I don't know who was so blind as to trade an Alchemy Conference Invitation Jade Pendant to you, allowing you to enter the Pill Gathering."

"Sure enough, you nearly caused a great disaster."

Hearing this, Zhou Qingyu could not help but exchange a glance with Wang Jianqiang.

A trace of strangeness appeared in both of their eyes at the same time.

The corner of Yang Yuntian's mouth twitched, and his face immediately darkened.
