Evil Emperor Zun

Chapter 833
Jin Siqi hugged the thermos cup, her legs curled up in the quilt.There was a snow-white sheet under her body, and a pillow behind her.She just sat quietly like this, looking at the dark wall in front of her, silent.

The previous Nine Serenity Holy Envoys brought her to this side hall, and after giving her a simple treatment, they left her here and went to work on their own tasks.Counting the time, the performance should be over now, but still no one came back to talk to her, and I don't know if they have forgotten their existence.

What should I do next, go back to the dormitory by myself, or continue to wait here?Or, should I go to the Nine Venerables and continue today's assessment?No... Things have become like this. If I contact the Nine Venerables alone again, I will definitely be misunderstood by my senior sister again. I still don't know how she will secretly manipulate me...

Just when Jin Siqi was in a daze alone, at a loss, with a "squeak", the door of the palace was suddenly pushed open, and a boy about her age walked in cautiously.

He has a well-behaved baby face, with a round cut head, a simple face, clear eyes, but shy and evasive, and his temperament is a little immature.This also made him look several years younger among his peers.

"That..." The boy seemed to be more timid than her, standing in front of the bed and peeking at her, and immediately looked away before she found out, "Are you feeling alright now?"

Jin Siqi replied softly: "It's much better, are you?" Judging by his attire, he should not be the Holy Envoy of Nine Serenity in the hall.

The boy seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, then took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, held it in front of her with both hands, and stammered: "This is my treasured healing elixir, if you don't mind, you can use it .”

Jin Siqi took it hesitantly, and silently clenched the medicine bottle tightly in her palm: "Thank you very much. But do we... know each other?"

They will appear here at this time, most of them are candidates who also came to participate in the election.But Jin Siqi really had no impression of the boy in front of him.It's no wonder that there are many primary candidates, except for a few outstanding ones like Huangfuli and Sikongsheng, most of them are transparent in the eyes of other candidates.

The boy swallowed, his face flushed red under her questioning, he glanced at the door from time to time, as if he was ready to flee at any moment.

"I didn't know you before, so I want to meet you now..." The boy's voice was as low as a mosquito's, but fortunately he still said the sentence in full, "Well, let me introduce myself first. It's called Meng Zhao, I've actually been paying attention to you for a long time..."

Jin Siqi was stunned: "Me? Why?" Looking back on her performance in the assessment, she was in a mid-to-lower state, and she really didn't think there was anything worth noting.

Meng Zhao nodded: "Well, because I think you are very gentle and very affectionate..."

Jin Siqi suddenly felt a "buzz" in her head. Someone said similar words to her before——

"I think you are very gentle and make people want to protect you."

Many years ago, Gu Feipeng held her in his arms like this, whispering love words in her ear.

However, maybe I am not gentle at all, but weak and cowardly.But her cowardice will eventually hurt those who protect her...

"Besides, in fact, I was always bullied in the sect, so..." Meng Zhao scratched his hair and looked at her eagerly.

Jin Siqi gave a wry smile: "Is it just pity for each other?"

Meng Zhao smiled embarrassedly, and lowered his head even lower.

"Then which sect do you belong to?" Jin Siqi didn't want to get entangled here, and changed the subject on her own initiative.

Meng Zhao was also delighted by her initiative to ask, his eyes lit up: "I am from the Dao Palace. Don't look at me like this, I am a Master of Array!"

"However, my strength may be quite weak..." However, his confidence came and went quickly, and he became depressed again in a blink of an eye.

Jin Siqi comforted her with some helplessness: "Don't be so unconfident. Since you can be promoted, it means that you must also be excellent!"

"Really?" Meng Zhao looked excited again, "My mother often said that too!"

The atmosphere was suddenly awkward.

Jin Siqi couldn't laugh or cry for a while.This is really... a typical chatter...

……

And on the side of Tianxiao Pavilion——

After several days of assessment, Mo Gucheng's excellence is obvious to all, directly crushing all the candidates.Even those deacon disciples who bullied others at the beginning began to follow behind him, flattering him non-stop.Needless to say, he took the initiative to change a spacious room for everyone in Qianyuanzong.

Mo Gucheng didn't bother with these flamboyant fluff.Fortunately, with Lu Hongyu and Ming Ji taking care of him, it can be regarded as win over those few disciples, so that the relationship will not become stagnant.

The personal martial arts performance came to an end, and Mo Gucheng's moves flowed like clouds and flowing water, which can be called the mastery of law and Taoism.During the movement of his fist, there was a faint rumble of thunder, which resounded in the hall.That is the sound of Taoism, and also the comprehension of elements, which is infinitely close to the embodiment of the original ocean.

In front of the long table, sat a row of elders with gray beards who were responsible for registering scores.When Mo Gucheng stopped and turned around, they looked at each other, and they all nodded in praise in surprise and sigh.

At such an age, with such cultivation, even in their Tianxiao Pavilion, how many people can match it?

At the same time, in another room far away from the Martial Arts Hall, several elders were staring at the monitor screen in front of them, worried.

"Thousands of people beheaded?"

An elder exclaimed, his voice full of shock and disbelief.

"Yes, this is the latest result." The elder in charge of real-time monitoring data nodded, "The Emperor Jiange killed nine days and killed 1580 opponents."

The elders looked at each other, and it took a long time before someone sighed softly: "Fortunately, he was allowed to enter the trial space, and he was facing virtual opponents. If this was placed outside, wouldn't all the other candidates be killed?"

"It is said that this Killing Nine Heavens has been following the route of being submerged for many years and becoming a blockbuster from the very beginning." Another elder stared at the thick stack of documents in his hand, "For so many years, he has never left the customs, just like a A machine that was born only for cultivation. Such a person is really difficult to deal with..."

"If in the end, the person we pushed up by Tianxiao Pavilion doesn't get a good ranking, but let him, an outsider, scoop it up, it would be really shameful!" Another elder said angrily.At the end of the speech, the two long eyebrows that were flying upwards drooped, his face was full of worry and resignation.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the room was a little heavy.

"Come out!" Just as everyone bowed their heads, an elder rushed in from the door, holding the registration book in his hand, "Yue Queye's grades are out!"

The elders in the room seemed to see a glimmer of hope, and surrounded them together, their eyes were full of anxiety: "How much?"

The elder who had just arrived received everyone's attention, and his aura obviously weakened.

"...1318."

The emotions in the room that had just been rising, seemed to be emptied, and immediately retreated completely.

Yan Yue was not as good as Shi Jiutian, so their only hope of victory was Qi Lin.

However, all the honors of Tianxiao Pavilion should be bet on him alone?In case there is a slight mistake, then...

"Elders," in the dead silence, an elder with beard and hair and a face like a jujube stood up, holding a stack of report cards in his hand.

"I have a proposal."

……

That night, Mo Gucheng was invited to the elder's room.

The person in charge of receiving him was the elder who spoke last.

"Little friend Gucheng, I have read all your grade reports." The red-faced elder looked at the report card on the table, raised his head from time to time, and looked at him appreciatively, "It's really excellent! This is unanimously recognized by all our elders!"

Mo Gucheng remained expressionless, and even this affirmation from the upper echelons did not make him get carried away.

"Thank you, elder, for your compliment."

The red-faced elder admired his calm attitude even more, and raised his hand towards the table: "The old man has a proposal! When the Tiangongmen formally assesses, you will participate in the election under the name of our Tianxiao Pavilion. How about it?" ?”

"But, I'm not from your Tianxiao Pavilion." Mo Gucheng replied coldly with indifferent eyes.

The red-faced elder smiled unhurriedly and said: "I've already made up my mind, as long as one of the elders in our pavilion recognizes you as a foster son and bestows the Yan family's surname, then everything will be justified!"

"As a child of Tianxiao Pavilion, you can naturally enjoy many privileges. If you agree, we will not only give you a special recommendation, but also focus on cultivating you and provide you with all the training resources you need. In the future assessment, we will definitely be Give the green light all the way!..."

Just as the red-faced elder was talking endlessly about the various benefits of being named under the banner of Tianxiao Pavilion, a trace of ridicule flashed in Mo Gucheng's eyes.

"I don't see it anymore."

The red-faced elder was startled, as if he suddenly choked back: "Little friend from the lonely city... what did you say?"

Mo Gucheng said coldly: "I can win with my own strength, and I don't need to cling to the powerful. What's more," looking at the elders in front of him, his tone was still arrogant and calm, "I don't think any of your elders in Tianxiao Pavilion is qualified. Be my adoptive father."

"You..." The red-faced elder raised his finger at him angrily, his shoulders were trembling with excessive anger, "Don't be ungrateful! I let you be named Tianxiao Pavilion, that is to give you a chance! This is not normal. No one can ask for it!"

"Leave your chance to those who need it." Mo Gucheng interrupted coldly, "Farewell."

After finishing speaking, he didn't salute the elder, but turned around and walked away.

"It's unreasonable, it's unreasonable!" After Mo Gucheng left, the red-faced elder was furious in the room alone, "A mere junior, he really takes himself seriously!"

His original intention was to pick out the best among these candidate candidates and hang it under the door of Tianxiao Pavilion for assessment.If they get a good ranking at that time, it will be their Tianxiao Pavilion who stand out.

Although this kind of action is intended to take advantage of it, with the power of Tianxiao Pavilion, even if those candidates know about it, they should be fighting to be used.

What's more, the cabinet will also provide them with cultivation resources, so that they have the same treatment as those authentic young masters and ladies, so what's not to like?He never expected that someone would be so ignorant of flattery that he would dare to refuse!

Scanning the report card on the table, the red-faced elder suddenly had mad malice in his eyes, and swept the paper away.

"You are capable, and no matter how strong you are, I will directly withdraw your recommendation quota, and I will make you not even eligible to participate in the election!"

……

With a "bang", the door of the registration room was pushed open, and the red-faced elder strode in.

"Old Huo, is the latest recommendation list out?"

In front of the square table full of grade books, a white-bearded elder raised his head from the documents and looked at his colleagues who arrived late at night in confusion.

"It has almost been drawn up, and the next step is to hand it over to the pavilion master for final review."

The red-faced elder nodded: "Show me."

Although Elder Huo was puzzled, he rummaged through the table as he said, and took out a folder and handed it over.

The red-faced elder glanced casually, saw a familiar name on the list, and quietly sneered at the corner of his mouth.

"Qianyuan Zongmo Gucheng, this candidate will be removed from the list."

Looking at the report card spread out in front of his eyes, Elder Huo was stunned for a while. In order not to mishear, he even put on reading glasses for a special trip, and read it again on the paper.

"Why? This candidate's performance is quite excellent! Why, is this what the pavilion master meant?"

"That's what I mean!" The red-faced elder snorted, and tapped heavily on the list at the same time with his fingers bent.

"Among the candidates in this class, there are many outstanding talents, and he is not bad! You just get rid of him, and if something happens, I will stand in front of the Pavilion Master!"

Elder Huo was still hesitating, and the red-faced elder was aggressive again. The two were in a stalemate when a dry cough suddenly sounded from behind.

"Old Li, what can't the pavilion master know?"

The two elders were stunned at the same time, looking at the Tianxiao Pavilion Master who was strolling towards him, they bowed together and saluted: "Pavilion Master!"

Yan Zhengting, the master of Tianxiao Pavilion, nodded gently: "Well, what were you talking about just now?"

The red-faced Elder Li was about to speak, but Elder Huo was afraid of taking responsibility, so he preemptively said: "Pavilion Master, Lao Li asked me to remove this candidate from the recommendation list!"

Yan Zhengting followed his instructions, picked up the folder, and looked at the impressive data, frowning slightly.

"This candidate, isn't his grades very good? Why should he be removed?"

Elder Li glared at Elder Huo, rolled his eyes a few times, finally made up his mind, and said in a low voice: "Pavilion Master, take a step to speak."

Yan Zhengting followed him out of the door with an attitude of nothing.Elder Li looked around and confirmed that no one heard him, then lowered his voice and said: "Pavilion Master, this candidate is really good, but he is too arrogant."

"Before I proposed to let him run under the name of our Tianxiao Pavilion, he said, 'You are not worthy'. Such a person, even if we Tianxiao Pavilion recommended him, he would obviously not be grateful, but rather It’s better to leave the opportunity to other candidates!”

Elder Li's words at this time were aimed at smearing Mo Gucheng and taking revenge for the humiliation of being rejected.As for whether it will kill a talent, he doesn't care at all!
