Chapter 912B – Help You Take It

Kang Qi forced a smile and bowed, “I thank Elder Wu for showing mercy.”

He returned to the crowd.

Wu Daoyuan smiled. “This is a family rule so I cannot break it.”

He put the jade pendant away.

Kang Qi’s defeat was within everyone’s expectations. If Wu Daoyuan couldn’t even defeat a junior who hadn’t yet entered the God boundary, how could the Empty Handed Art have its current reputation?

What truly shocked everyone was that Wu Daoyuan had been far too fast. It had taken him only several breaths of time, and Kang Qi hadn’t even realized it!

Although Kang Qi was at a disadvantage because he went first, everyone recognized his strength.

Kang Qi had suffered such a loss. If anyone else went on stage instead, would their performance be any better?

“I’ll come.” A youth stepped into the circle. He cupped his hands together and said, “I am Roc City’s Miao Qiyu. I greet Elder Wu.”

As he spoke, many people were startled. They looked on intently. It was clear this Miao Qiyu was somewhat famous.

But what a pity, facing Wu Daoyuan’s Empty Handed Art he was only able to last two more breaths of time than Kang Qi.

“This junior feels nothing but the deepest admiration for Elder Wu’s skills.” Miao Qiyu cupped his hands together and bowed, walking back into the crowd. Although he had lost, there was a visible difference between him and Kang Qi.

Following that, three more Roc City cultivators tried. Without exception, they all failed as one of their belongings was snatched by the Empty Handed Art.

“Miss Lei, my name is Meng Pingyue and I come from Balance City’s Meng Family. Although I have no confidence of winning today, I am willing to try for you. If I can win by luck, I hope you will accept this lotus flower.”

He faintly smiled after he spoke. Then, without giving Lei Xiaoyu a chance to respond, he walked forward. “Elder Wu, please.”

Meng Pingyue placed a finger between his eyebrows. Then, a mountain phantom appeared around him. While it was faint, one could feel how heavy it was.

“Mountain intent manifestation!”

“Illusion substantialization!”

With quiet shouts from all over, everyone’s complexions changed.

Wu Daoyuan slightly bowed. “Little friend’s strength is not minor. Please be careful.”

As he spoke he lifted a hand and grasped forward. His lower arm vanished from sight.

Time passed, one breath at a time. Everyone could clearly see the mountain phantom around Meng Pingyue ripple like wind across a lake.

The incense stick burned by half…over half…almost to the end…

Meng Pingyue’s eyes revealed a look of happiness. But at this time, Wu Daoyuan smiled.

Pa –

With a light sound, the mountain phantom collapsed and vanished. A yellow stone lay quietly between Wu Daoyuan’s fingers.

“Elder Wu’s skills are admirable.” Meng Pingyue bowed. He turned and forced a smile. “Miss Lei, I have disappointed you. My apologies. But as you see today, I am willing to do anything for you. Even if I cannot achieve it, I am still willing to try.”

This boy, his ability to sweet talk was much stronger than his cultivation.

Wu Daoyuan faintly smiled. He planned to stop here today. But then, his eyebrows furrowed together.

Lei Jinyun felt uncomfortable. Although Gu Wan had spoken with confidence, today’s success lay in this key step.

Moments later, Gu Wan let out a breath and softly said, “He agreed.”

Lei Jinyun relaxed. He revealed a happy smile.

As long as Wu Daoyuan helped then there was no reason he would fail. At that time, he could activate the following series of moves he had arranged.

Today, he wanted to borrow this opportunity to let everyone know who the true successor of the Lei Family was!

Wu Daoyuan said, “Young man, Miss Lei is like the moon in the skies. There will inevitably be people pursuing her. Don’t you plan on doing anything?”

Shua –

Everyone’s gazes gathered on Qin Yu.

Qin Yu raised an eyebrow, as if never thinking that something like this would happen today.

He thought for a moment and said, “Xiaoyu, that lotus flower?”

Lei Xiaoyu bit her lips, “It has an effect of maintaining appearances…but for some reason, after it fused into me, I feel very comfortable.”

Mm?

Qin Yu’s eyes flashed. He smiled and said, “Okay. Then I’ll help you take it.”

The banquet hall suddenly fell deathly silent.

The two people hadn’t even concealed their exchange, so everyone could hear them speak…then I’ll help you take it…

Hiss – !

This Qin Yu, what bravado he has!

Who does he think he is? Does he even know who he is facing?

And most importantly, with him speaking with such a casual attitude, didn’t that mean everyone who tried before him was trash?

How could anyone endure this?

Meng Pingyue’s eyebrows rose up. Then, he clapped his hands, his face full of admiration, “As expected of someone favored by Miss Lei. Fellow daoist Qin is so brave and valorous. I will keep my eyes open and wait for fellow daoist Qin’s victory.”

Kang Qi bit his cheeks and said, “Brother Meng, you sound
