Chapter 478: 477, is the ancient Konghou (Second watch)

This world, perhaps, has gone mad.

No one dared believe the scene unfolding before their eyes.

This White Tiger, the White Tiger was actually, actually... her family’s little white cat?

Could this be an illusion?

Or was Chu Jin just joking, bragging?

But looking at the tiger and human, it didn’t seem like a joke at all!

Mo Feixue, who had just been mocking Chu Jin, now felt a stinging pain on her face.

She hadn’t expected that the White Tiger actually knew Chu Jin and, moreover, had acknowledged Chu Jin as its master.

Could it be that the Mo family’s fortunes had truly run out?

Would the Mo family ultimately fail to gain the imperial surname?

All of it should be blamed on the Mo family matriarch, for forsaking the Saintess of the Superpower World and choosing an ordinary person who was nothing!

The expected pain did not follow, and Mo Qingyi quietly peeked through her fingers, witnessing everything outside, then quietly let out a sigh of relief.

So it turned out, this White Tiger really was Jin’s family pet.

However, looking at it this way, it seemed too fierce!

Snarling, showing its teeth, although it was trying to please Jin, it still looked terrifying. Those sharp teeth, that opened wide vicious mouth, her own frail body would probably not even be enough to get stuck in its teeth.

Zheng Chuyi silently took a few steps back, temporarily forgetting her bold declarations of wanting to touch the tiger’s rear.

After all, no one was like Jin, possessing such a powerful aura that could even subdue the White Tiger, and furthermore, keeping ancient beasts as pets.

Just the thought of it was frightening.

Jin... had surpassed her imagination, overturning her worldviews.

The elderly madam and Tong Zhi recovered from their shock, having thought for a moment that Chu Jin would be devoured by the tiger, thankfully, thankfully.

While feeling fortunate, they were also a bit worried.

Empress.

These two characters seemed magnificent, but in reality, once someone took on this title, they would have to bear a lot and face great controversies, as well as succumb to various temptations of fame, profit, and power.

Jin, being so young, should not have to bear these burdens.

It was all because of the Mo family dragging her into this, the Mo family matriarch sighed softly at the thought.

The title of Empress, elsewhere, might be the ultimate honor, but for Chu Jin, it was not the case.

Because what she wanted had never been these things.

Watching the young girl before him, Qin Qingchen found it hard to swallow.

Everything was unfolding as he had imagined.

What to do?

The person they referred to as this world-defying individual, was very likely the Empress.

He and his elder martial brother had done such an unforgivable thing to the Empress.

How... how to end this?

Thinking this, Qin Qingchen anxiously glanced at Zhang Linzi, only to find him still standing there calmly, seemingly unaware of the severity of the situation.

Sweating coldly and feeling a chill down his spine, he knew he must find a way to stop his elder martial brother. One mistake leads to another; his brother could not continue to err.

Watching the affectionate interaction between the White Tiger and Chu Jin, Zheng Chuyi’s face turned somewhat pale, her heart a little panicked. Could someone tell her what exactly was going on?

Zheng Chuyi’s steps faltered as she retreated quite a bit, "How, how could this be possible?"

The White Tiger was clearly summoned by her, so why had it become this commoner’s pet?

Right, it must be that the White Tiger misunderstood her command.

It had to be so.

"Chuyi, don’t worry, that White Tiger might be a Divine Beast, but it’s still a beast, so it might misinterpret your command. Just explain it to it again," Mo Feixue comforted Zheng Chuyi softly.

With Mo Feixue’s comfort, Zheng Chuyi felt much better. She brushed the stray hair at her forehead behind her ear and addressed the White Tiger again, "White Tiger, obey—kill Chu Jin at once!"

Her voice seemed calm, but in reality, she was utterly terrified.

If the White Tiger did not obey her order, she had no idea what to do next.

Kill her!

Tear her to pieces! As long as Chu Jin was dead, no one would compete with her for Mo Zhixuan, and the role of the family head’s wife, as well as the position of the Saintess within the Superpower World, would be hers.

By then, she would also unify the Three Realms.

The entire Three Realms would belong to her.

Upon hearing this, the White Tiger gave Zheng Chuyi a look as if it was watching a dead person.

How laughable, this woman had some confidence to think she was the reincarnation of the Empress, truly overestimating herself.

What was even more amusing was that she dared to command him!

The White Tiger’s ominous gaze made Zheng Chuyi feel a chill all over, trembling inside, she clutched Mo Feixue’s wrist, took a deep breath, and couldn’t help but retreat further.

That sense of powerlessness and panic surged in her again.

"Xiaobai, how many times have I told you not to scare kids and plants recklessly?" Chu Jin spoke with a hint of teasing.

Zheng Chuyi thinks just because she’s young, she can act recklessly? Honestly believing that being young exempts her from prison for murder?

Hearing this, the White Tiger quickly lowered its eyes and nuzzled Chu Jin with its head.

"Brother Jin, I will be very good and obedient from now on, please don’t eat me, okay?" The robust figure of the White Tiger suddenly spoke with a voice that was rough and boisterous, creating a stark contrast with its endearingly cute demeanor.

White Tiger big boss, do you realize how much your current appearance doesn’t match your majestic and powerful look!

This is hardly the demeanor a Divine Beast should have.

The Azure Dragon and Vermilion Bird circling in midair couldn’t help but tremble uncontrollably.

Hey, is this really the White Tiger they know?

Just a short millennium and it’s become this cowardly?

The mundane world is indeed a terrifying place.

It actually turned the White Tiger into this!

The mundane world, scary indeed!

Humans, scary indeed!

All the people present wore expressions as if they had seen a ghost; they couldn’t possibly be dreaming, could they? Zhang Linzi couldn’t help doubting—was this creature really the White Tiger?

The one that guards peace and order?

The high and mighty Divine Beast that instills fear in others?

To think that someone kept an ancient beast as a pet!

She’s just a person who goes against the world, so where did she get the power to do this?

Zhang Linzi’s brows furrowed deeply.

He didn’t know where the problem lay, or perhaps, had this person who defied the world benefited from Mo Zhixuan’s fortune? Therefore, obtaining the favor of a Divine Beast?

Up to this point, he still didn’t believe that Chu Jin was the reincarnation of the Empress.

After all, it probably came down to a matter of vision.

In his eyes, the Empress ought to be perfect, one of a kind, not someone who had been abandoned by the Heavenly Dao.

Hearing Little White’s words, he also knew that it must have been up to no good today; otherwise, it wouldn’t have acted in such a way just now.

Chu Jin slightly raised his eyebrows, "Out with it, what mischief have you been up to this time?"

In the world, feared and respected as it was, perhaps no one except Chu Jin would dare to speak to the White Tiger in such a tone.

Chu Xiaobai: No! There’s also Mo Zhixuan!

Hearing this, Little White’s expression turned a bit gloomy, "I’m sorry, Brother Jin. I failed to keep an eye on the ancient Konghou, and it was stolen by someone." It was all because those two ran too fast, and he couldn’t catch up to them.

However, those two people were seriously injured and probably wouldn’t live long.

He had followed the scent here, where the Konghou’s aura lingered, but alas, Little White had not found the two thieves.

The ancient Konghou.

Zhang Linzi and Qin Qingchen caught two significant phrases.

The Konghou was a pain in Zheng Chuyi’s heart that she couldn’t mention!

If it weren’t for Chu Jin’s tampering with the Konghou, making it impossible for her to play the instrument, how would things have developed to this point? Making her the butt of others’ jokes.

She was expelled from the Mo family.

Zheng Chuyi suddenly looked up at Chu Jin, her eyes layering with a dense shade of venomous hatred, "You lowly mundane being, I’m going to kill you!" She fiercely drew the Longsword from Zhang Linzi’s hand and swiftly stabbed it toward Chu Jin’s chest.

If need be, she would die together with Chu Jin!

There was no need for Chu Jin to make a move; the White Tiger slowly raised its paw and gently swiped.

Clang——

Thud——

One sound was the Longsword hitting the ground and the other was the sound of a heavy object dropping.

"Miss Zheng, are you alright?" Zhang Linzi immediately leapt forward to help Zheng Chuyi up, then turned to the White Tiger, "Great White Tiger, perhaps there has been a mistake. Miss Zheng here is the true reincarnation of the Empress. The person standing by your side is just a person rejected by the Heavenly Dao, please do not stand on the wrong side or follow the wrong master, lest you face the Heavenly Dao’s punishment."

Little White sat upright, lazily lifting its eyes to glance at Zhang Linzi, "I don’t know who the real Empress is, I just need to know that Brother Jin is my only master, that’s enough."

"You!" Zhang Linzi’s complexion didn’t look very good, "You’re actually defying heaven, you will definitely be punished by the Heavenly Dao!"

At that moment, the Vermilion Bird that had been circling in mid-air suddenly dived down straight towards Zheng Chuyi, spread its wings wide, and after a long cry, it flew back into the sky, but clearly, its mouth now held an additional brocade pouch.

That brocade pouch was familiar to Little White—it contained the Konghou.

"Vermilion Bird, drop that brocade pouch quickly," Little White called out excitedly.

"That’s my possession," Zheng Chuyi’s voice was weak and anxious.

The Vermilion Bird suddenly opened its beak and the brocade pouch fell in an arc toward the ground.

Suddenly, the ribbon loosened and golden light flashed from within the pouch as a heavy object fell out.

With a booming sound.

The ancient artifact lay before everyone’s eyes.

Mo Feixue’s eyes lit up, "It’s the ancient Konghou!"

Zhang Linzi was even more overjoyed at heart; surely even heaven was aiding them, "Miss Zheng, our chance is here. Please go and play the Konghou swiftly. Don’t worry, with me guarding you, nobody dares to harm you. Now that the three Divine Beasts are assembled, only Xuanwu is left to hope for. May you be able to summon Xuanwu this time."

Once the Konghou was played, all their problems would be effortlessly solved.

"Master Zhang," a different voice came through the air, Tong Zhi said with a smile in her eyes, "Your Miss Zheng, I’m afraid she can no longer play the Konghou."
