Chapter 9: Shooting Herself in the Foot

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The main hall was silent.

There was complete silence.

The disciples were stunned.

Shen Xingjian was so shocked that his jaw almost fell off.

Even the eyes of the elders who were presiding over the trial widened.

As for the person involved, Gu Yiping.

Her elegance and arrogance disappeared at this moment. She had an expression that seemed to be saying, “What are you kidding me?”

At this point, the entire Black Heaven Sect seemed to have pressed on the pause button.

“I just refused to take the disk. Do you have to show such an exaggerated reaction?” Jiang Hong said.

However, no matter how shocked they were, he would not accept it.

Jiang Hong’s group was in the far east, and Shen Xingjian’s group was in the far west. The two groups were completely separated. If he kept this disc, the two of them could not even meet each other.

His current agility points did not allow him to move freely in two places in such a short period of time.

Therefore, he absolutely could not accept this Profound Disk.

After a long while, Gu Yiping came back to her senses. Her tone was serious as she frowned and said in a deep voice,

“The trial is not a joke. Everyone is holding a disk. Why don’t you want to take it? Hurry up and return to the team. Don’t make a fuss.”

After saying that, Gu Yiping took a step back, afraid that Jiang Hong would return the disk.

She had tampered with this Profound Disk. There was a special array formation inside. As long as she used the Profound Disk in her hand, she could clearly and accurately locate Jiang Hong’s location.

Gu Yiping had no choice but to use this method since she could not track him to where Jiang Hong would soon meet up with the demons.

She had to let him keep the Profound Disk no matter what.

“Eldest Senior Sister, I’m not trying to make a fuss.” Jiang Hong took a step forward and explained sincerely, “It’s just that my cultivation realm is not high and I really can’t withstand such a high-level magic treasure. Eldest Senior Sister, you should take it back.”

Jiang Hong returned the disk to Gu Yiping.

“Junior Brother Jiang, I don’t like what you’re saying. Cultivation doesn’t decide everything. If I ask you to take it, just take it. Otherwise, you are not giving me face,” Gu Yiping rejected again.

She raised her fair hand and turned her wrist. She pressed down on the profound disk that Jiang Hong handed over and pushed it back.

‘She is so strong. As expected of her.’ Jiang Hong secretly admired her and began to increase his strength.

He said, “It’s my honor that Senior Sister Gu thinks so highly of me, but I really don’t have the confidence to master such a precious magical artifact.”

The disk was immediately pushed back.

Gu Yiping was shocked. While she was stunned by the other party’s strength, she was not to be outdone. She grinned and increased her strength again. At the same time, she forced a smile.

“Dharma treasures are worldly possessions. If they’re broken, so be it. I don’t mind.”

“But, I do care.” Jiang Hong pressed the disk forward.

“You really don’t have to care.” Gu Yiping pressed the disk back.

Back and forth.

Neither of them gave in to the other.

A good Profound Disk was pushed all over just like that.

Below the stage, the disciples, who were already dumbfounded, saw this scene and were instantly shocked.

They couldn’t get what their senior sister gave them, but this man actually took the initiative to reject it? Even if he wanted to show off to us, he shouldn’t be like this, right?

Many disciples were shocked, angry, and jealous.

“…Why do I feel like they’re flirting?” A sharp-eyed disciple suddenly muttered.

The disciples: ?!

It would have been better if he hadn’t said anything. Now that he had said it, he took a closer look and realized that it was true.

Pushing something back and forth, and talking to each other for each other’s sake, wasn’t this a perfect example of a little Dao companion?

It had only been a few days, but their relationship had already progressed this far?

Before the trial even began, many of the disciples already felt nauseous and uncomfortable.

After all, the dog food was too sweet.

Shen Xingjian was naturally the one who suffered the most.

“These two guys are definitely doing this on purpose…”

Shen Xingjian gritted his teeth. His face was ashen. He clenched her fists tightly, and the veins on the back of his hands bulged.

It seemed like the sect trial was probably going to be canceled because of all these weird and distracting thoughts.

“Quiet.”

An old and steady voice sounded.

With just two words, the originally noisy square in the main hall instantly became quiet.

Immediately after, an old man with his hands behind his back, wearing a wide robe and sleeves, descended from the sky and landed on the stage.

It was Sect Master Shen Yun.

Why was he here? Was there a need to alarm this old man for such a minor trial? Didn’t he go into secluded meditation? Why was he here again… Everyone was puzzled.

Following Shen Yun’s arrival, all the elders and disciples in the main hall cupped their fists and bowed respectfully.

“I just came to see you guys before I officially start my seclusion. You can continue.”

Sect Master Shen Yun explained indifferently. Then, his strong gaze landed on Gu Yiping and Jiang Hong, the senior and junior siblings.

“Since Yiping is willing to lend it to you, take it.”

Shen Yun left behind this short but powerful sentence.

“Yes.”

Since the Sect Master had already spoken, he had no choice but to agree.

‘Tsk, saving that kid’s life.’ Jiang Hong clicked his tongue and could only temporarily put aside his plan to take good care of Shen Xingjian.

“Let’s begin.”

The Sect Master’s deep voice spread throughout the main hall.

The sect trial for Foundation Establishment disciples officially began.

…

On the stage.

Gu Yiping watched as the Profound Disk was put into Jiang Hong’s pocket as Jiang Hong’s team disappeared into the distance. Only then did her anxious heart calm down and she heaved a sigh of relief.

Although there were some minor deviations, this way, the whereabouts of this great devil would be completely under her control. Next, as long as Jiang Hong took the initiative to leave the main group, it would be the time to capture him and the demons in one fell swoop.

Except…

“Why did he reject the Profound Disk? And that strength… Although I didn’t use my full strength, he could actually contend with me. Is his current strength really only at the Foundation Establishment Realm?”

Gu Yiping frowned.

It seemed like there was still a need to observe him up close. However, it was fine if she was just thinking too much. But what if he really came back… Gu Yiping bit her lips hard with her snow-white teeth. She could not figure it out for a moment.

“Yiping.”

“Master, what can I do for you?”

Shen Yun suddenly called her.

Gu Yiping could only temporarily retract her thoughts and come in front of Shen Yun.

“That’s the disciple you said is the most talented in our sect?” Shen Yun stroked his beard and asked.

“?!”

Gu Yiping was stunned for a moment before she reacted and nodded. “Yes.”

Speaking of which, she had indeed spouted nonsense before. Her master actually knew this little gossip so quickly.

“But as far as I know, that disciple’s performance has been mediocre for the past three years. Moreover, it was Junior Sister Ji who brought him back…” Shen Yun stroked his long white beard and asked curiously, “What’s so outstanding about him that you have such a high evaluation of him?”

‘He is the future world-destroying demon. Does that count?’

Gu Yiping frowned and felt her scalp go numb. This was the first time she had encountered a situation where she had shot herself in the foot.
