Chapter 216: 216 To keep you company to the end (fourth update)

Jia Zhuo seemed not to have expected that the silver needle she shot out would be detected by Chu Jin, and while Chu Jin was inspecting the silver needle, Jia Zhuo swiftly attacked towards her direction.

Chu Jin, as the figure charged at her, didn’t dodge, her pupils deepening in color. Her right hand gathered strength subtly as streaks of purple lightning traveled from her dantian to her hand, her right hand transforming into a blade sharp as a sword.

She cleaved directly towards the residual shadow, and at the same time, bolts of purple lightning ferociously struck Jia Zhuo!

Amidst the flash of lighting, Chu Jin lightly lifted her right foot.

With a ’bang!’

A loud boom suddenly filled the air.

Yet Chu Jin still stood there, one foot lightly stepping on Jia Zhuo and the other on the ground, holding three silver needles in her hand, eyes lowered, her face serene as jade, and the corners of her mouth slightly curled up in a wicked smile.

The chilly voice echoed in the air, "Do you submit now?"

It wasn’t loud, but it resonated with force, clearly reaching everyone’s ears.

The scene was somewhat shocking.

Nearly everyone could not believe their own eyes.

She had easily pinned Jia Zhuo to the ground!

Jia Zhuo lay on the ground in a disheveled state, her features twisted, her brows and eyes filled with barely resisted pain.

She could not have imagined that she, a high and mighty Water Elemental Mage from the Superpower World, would be trampled underfoot by a mere mortal.

Like a mere ant!

Such great humiliation!

Even though she was stepped on, Jia Zhuo still managed to squeeze out these two words through gritted teeth, "No! Submit!"

She was a Third Order mage of the Superpower World; how could she possibly bow before a mere mortal!

How could she possibly submit to a mere mortal!

A lower mortal, how could they so easily defeat her? There must be Mo Zhixuan secretly helping!

Yes!

"Not submitting?" Chu Jin leaned slightly forward, bending down to bring the three silver needles in her hand close to Jia Zhuo’s face, whispering, "What is this?"

Jia Zhuo looked at Chu Jin in astonishment, never expecting that Chu Jin would actually have caught the silver needles she had shot. She had thought Chu Jin had merely dodged them.

This was terrifying!

Even in the Superpower World, it was rare for anyone to catch her silver needles with their bare hands!

Could this also be Mo Zhixuan secretly helping?

Otherwise, how could a mere mortal have the capability to catch her silver needles?

At this thought, Jia Zhuo’s heart calmed slightly. Losing to Mo Zhixuan was not a disgrace!

Jia Zhuo pressed her lips tightly together, saying nothing!

The Superpower World also had its rules; one would rather die than submit to a mere mortal!

Better to be killed than humiliated!

And with so many people present, surely this mere mortal wouldn’t dare to kill her outright!

"Not talking, huh?" Chu Jin, holding the three silver needles, smiled slightly, her peach blossom eyes glittering.

What others saw was astonishing beauty.

But what Jia Zhuo saw was panic.

"What... what do you want to do?" Jia Zhuo’s whole body trembled.

Chu Jin smiled faintly, "Tell me, what if I stick these three silver needles into you?"

As she spoke, Chu Jin picked up a silver needle and aimed for Jia Zhuo’s body.

Jia Zhuo’s pupils dilated in fear as the silver needle approached, a look of terror filling her eyes.

The needles had been coated with their family’s ancestral peerless poison; it would seal the throat upon contact with blood with no antidote available!

"Don’t!" Jia Zhuo’s voice, tinged with the edge of tears, rang out, "I submit, I submit..."

She was truly frightened! She could feel that Chu Jin was not joking.

The person in front of her did not seem like a mere lower mortal of only a teenager, but rather like an Asura who had crawled back from hell!

"That’s more like it. If you had submitted earlier, you wouldn’t have had to suffer so much," Chu Jin straightened up slowly, releasing her foot, flicking her fingertips, and the three silver needles flew straight into a wooden pillar a few meters away, burying a third of their length into the wood!

At the same time, a clear voice rose in the air, "Miss Jia Zhuo, if you ever compete with someone in the future, it’s better not to resort to such underhanded tactics. After all, not everyone is as easygoing as I am!"

Zheng Chuyi took a few steps back, her face slightly pale. She hadn’t expected Jia Zhuo to be defeated so easily!

"Miss Chu is quite skillful," Gan Mingxie looked over in Chu Jin’s direction.

Chu Jin curved her lips slightly, "Just some fancy footwork—I’ve made a fool of myself in front of Mr. Gan."

"How about that, I told you my brother Jin is amazing, didn’t I? But you didn’t believe me," Mo Qingyi swept a glance over the crowd and slowly spoke.

Brother Jin just now was truly dashing!

Just as Chu Jin was about to return to her seat, Zheng Chuyi’s voice rang through the air, "Miss Chu, wait a moment."

"What is it?" A pair of sparkling peach-blossom eyes calmly looked towards Zheng Chuyi.

Zheng Chuyi helped Jia Zhuo to sit down at the side, the corners of her mouth lifted slightly, "Miss Chu, aren’t you going to try this ancient Konghou?"

Chu Jin’s playful nature suddenly surged, and she slightly raised her eyebrows at Zheng Chuyi, "Try? Why not, didn’t you just say you wanted to raise the stakes? Tell me, how do you want to play?"

Zheng Chuyi raised her chin with arrogance and said, "My bet is very simple, I’m just afraid Miss Chu can’t afford it!"

"Let’s hear it," Chu Jin said with a neutral tone.

Almost no emotion could be seen on her clear and distinguished features.

Seeing Chu Jin take the bait, Zheng Chuyi slightly curved her lips, a hint of triumph flashing in her eyes, and she began to speak slowly.

"We won’t talk about playing the instrument. Miss Chu, if you can make this ancient Konghou produce a sound, I will gift the Konghou to you as the bet. But if you can’t make it produce even the slightest sound, then you will break off your engagement with Mo Zhixuan, and for the rest of your life, you will be my slave. How about it?"

By all accounts, this bet seemed to be one Zheng Chuyi was sure to win.

That’s why Zheng Chuyi was so confident.

After all, she was the True Destiny Maiden.

Just as Chu Jin was about to speak, Mo Zhixuan suddenly stood up and quickly stepped beside her, lightly embracing her shoulder and said in a deep voice, "We’re not playing anymore. You have school tomorrow; I’ll take you home."

This ancient Konghou was exceedingly sinister; how could he let her take such a risk?

Break off the engagement? Be a slave?

Neither of these options could he agree to.

Seeing Mo Zhixuan protect a commoner like this, Zheng Chuyi bit her lip with a feeling of discontent, almost overflowing with jealousy in her heart.

Why should this commoner receive his favor?

She, the True Destiny Maiden with the Bloodline of Fire Bathing, in what way was she inferior to this commoner?

Chu Jin slightly lifted her gaze, gently patted Mo Zhixuan’s arm, "Let me try; don’t worry, I won’t be in trouble."

Then she turned her head to look at Zheng Chuyi, her red lips parting slightly, "Miss Zheng, this bet seems a bit unfair to me, I want to add one more condition."

Zheng Chuyi suppressed the sour taste in her heart and looked calmly towards Chu Jin, "Go ahead."

Chu Jin slightly raised her eyebrows, "If I win, not only do I want this ancient Konghou, but I also want you to be my slave for life!"

"Fine!" Zheng Chuyi spoke without hesitation, "As you say. Everyone present is a witness. I hope Miss Chu won’t go back on her word later and do something despicable!"

She was certain she wouldn’t lose anyway!

She was just waiting to have this lowly commoner be her slave and serve her for life!

She wanted this commoner to pay the price she deserved, to send her to the Eighteen Layers of Hell!

To ensure she could never turn over in this life or the next, forever!

Thinking this way, Zheng Chuyi’s heart was extremely pleased.

The thought of stepping on this commoner ruthlessly made her feel very comfortable.

Jia Zhuo, who was sitting aside, also curled his lips into a slight arc.

This commoner had no chance today; after tonight, she would forever live under Zheng Chuyi’s control.

Then, he could torture her however he liked, to fully avenge today’s humiliation!

Chu Jin’s lips curved slightly, and she slowly uttered four words with conviction, "I’ll accompany you to the end!"

After speaking, she walked towards the Konghou.

"Wait," Zheng Chuyi called out to Chu Jin’s retreating figure again.

"What now?" Chu Jin’s brows lifted slightly, her tone slightly impatient.

This Zheng Chuyi was truly troublesome.

Zheng Chuyi’s eyes smiled, "Empty promises mean nothing. Let’s draw up a written agreement to prevent some people from regretting it later!"
