Chapter 721 - 723, The Bigger the Stir, the Better (First Update)

Chapter 721: 723, The Bigger the Stir, the Better (First Update)

Mo Zhixuan simply stood there and spoke with steadfast composure, "Rest assured, I will not regret it, and I hope the second Elder will not go back on his word when the time comes."

Mo Zhixuan was aware of Chu Jin’s strength.

He also knew that Chu Jin would not lose in this trial competition.

It’s not bragging to say that in all three realms, nearly no one could rival Chu Jin, except for him.

Therefore, Mo Zhixuan was very assured of Chu Jin.

The second Elder chuckled, then turned to look at Chu Jin, his tone mocking, "Miss Chu, I hope you won’t disappoint us, for Zhixuan has placed great expectations on you."

The greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.

The second Elder was currently feeling very smug.

In the end, Mo Zhixuan still could not escape the fate of marrying Xi He.

Once Mo Zhixuan married Xi He, for the rest of his life, he would not be able to leave the Superpower World at will.

In the Superpower World, there was no such thing as divorce.

Chu Jin was not angry either, she slightly turned and stared directly into the second Elder’s eyes, smiling lightly, "Whether there will be disappointment, the trial ground will naturally reveal the truth."

Her tone was light, yet it carried an inexplicable pressure, each word resounding clearly as they were uttered.

In that moment, Chu Jin’s presence erupted with a powerful aura.

Chu Jin didn’t care much for this second Elder.

From the eyes of the second Elder, she saw endless greed.

The second Elder narrowed his eyes; people seldom met his gaze due to his status, and since the eyes are the windows to the soul, he did not expect Chu Jin to be so calm and collected while looking him in the eye.

Most importantly, the second Elder couldn’t find a trace of fear in her eyes.

From start to finish, her demeanor was unlike that of an ordinary person.

Indeed, there was a difference between the reincarnation of an empress and the common folk.

The second Elder suppressed his surprise, smiling, "I hope Miss Chu can still smile so freely when the time comes."

"Certainly," Chu Jin replied, without a hint of modesty.

Although the second Elder was an elder, he had provoked her time and again, and thus, she saw no need to give him any face.

Respect is mutual.

The second Elder was taken aback and held his tongue, not expecting Chu Jin to speak so disrespectfully!

After all, he was an elder!

Couldn’t she be more humble?

Chu Jin dared to speak so arrogantly, probably because she relied on her identity as the reincarnation of an empress.

Among ordinary people, indeed, the reincarnation of an empress was outstanding, one in ten thousand.

But the trial ground was not an ordinary competition ground, did Chu Jin think just by being the reincarnation of an empress she could win effortlessly?

Impossible!

Chu Jin was too arrogant!

Contemptuous of everyone around her!

This was probably, aside from Mo Zhixuan, the only person who dared to contradict the second Elder so boldly.

Xi He, standing to the side, looked at Chu Jin with admiration shining in her eyes.

She had always liked beautiful things.

She could see that Chu Jin was not as simple as the Elders imagined; if she were merely an ordinary person, she wouldn’t have stood by Mo Zhixuan until today, nor would she have come to the Superpower World so easily.

The Elders only saw Chu Jin’s secular background, but failed to notice her advantages.

The person before them, in appearance, temperament, and cultivation, was someone not just the secular world but also the Superpower World could not produce.

All in all, Xi He had 99% confidence in Chu Jin.

She believed that Chu Jin would definitely stand out in this trial competition.

With that thought, Xi He proactively walked up to Chu Jin, extending her right hand and said in a very friendly manner, "Hello Miss Chu, my name is Xi He, ’Xi’ from Fuxi, and ’He’ from harmonizing the world. You can just call me by my name."

Xi He had a favorable impression of Chu Jin.

Most importantly, Chu Jin could help her break free from the Elders’ constraints.

With Chu Jin’s help, she could gain her freedom.

The name Xi He was chosen to symbolize harmony and peace in the world.

Originally, the third Elder took her as his disciple because of her name as well.

What kind of family would give their child a name that carries the meaning of harmonizing and bringing peace to the world?

Clearly, Xi He’s background was extraordinary.

"That’s a beautiful name," Chu Jin shook her hand, her tone light, "I am Chu Jin, ’Chu’ from the Chu River and Han Border, ’Jin’ from the splendid rivers and mountains."

Like Xi He, Chu Jin greatly appreciated this ’love rival.’

Just like her name, Xi He gave off a very auspicious and serene vibe, as if any annoyance could be instantly forgotten upon seeing her.

Moreover, Chu Jin could tell that Xi He had no special feelings towards Mo Zhixuan.

She was simply compelled by circumstances.

In Xi He’s heart, there was someone else.

"Thank you," Xi He said with a joyful smile, "Miss Chu, your name is also very pleasant to hear."

Xi He was surprised by Chu Jin’s attitude towards her.

Any other person, upon meeting their ’love rival,’ would surely assume a cold demeanor and mock each other.

But Chu Jin was different; she was amiable, beautiful, like a fairy.

Xi He still had not encountered someone so stunning.

Moreover, Xi He could see that Chu Jin’s attitude towards her was genuine.

She harbored no hostility towards Xi He at all.

Chu Jin slightly curled her lips and continued, "If you don’t mind, you can call me Jin."

"Okay, Jin, then you can call me Xi He," Xi He said cheerfully.

Mo Zhixuan and the Elders standing by were all stunned.

Could it be that their eyes were deceiving them?

It was truly the first time they had seen such a harmonious relationship between rivals!

Originally, the Elders thought that Chu Jin would curse out Xi He or resort to physical violence upon seeing her, and they were prepared to use this opportunity to give Chu Jin a lecture.

Such a person wouldn’t even qualify to enter the trial grounds.

But despite all their calculations, they never anticipated that Chu Jin would become friends with Xi He.

And even call each other by their first names.

Chu Jin had even exchanged social media contacts with Xi He.

Xi He was no better.

Didn’t she know her own status? How could she be so friendly towards an ordinary person! This was simply bringing shame to the Superpower World.

However, due to Mo Zhixuan’s presence, the Elders didn’t say much.

It took the Second Elder quite some time to gather his wits, and then he continued, "Since Miss Chu has already signed the document, we will not bother you any longer, farewell."

"Elders, please take care," Chu Jin and Mo Zhixuan stood up to see them out.

Even if they didn’t like the Elders, they still had to put on appearances.

So as not to provoke gossip.

"Goodbye, Jin," Xi He whispered, turning back to say farewell to Chu Jin after walking a few steps.

"Goodbye," Chu Jin also waved to her.

Mo Zhixuan, standing aside, was somewhat speechless. He even began to doubt whether Chu Jin loved him anymore! Otherwise, how could she get along so well with her rival?

Only indifference could account for such calmness.

Chu Jin turned and started walking back, but Mo Zhixuan blocked her path, "Jin, Xi He is your rival! How can you be friends with your rival? Tell me, have you fallen for someone else? Who is it? Mo Qianjue or Song Shiqin? Or some other man?"

In Mo Zhixuan’s heart, Mo Qianjue and Song Shiqin would always be his greatest rivals.

Chu Jin looked up indifferently, "Mr. Mo, may I ask, aren’t you a bit too conceited? Do you think you are renminbi, beloved by everyone?"

If Xi He doesn’t even like Mo Zhixuan, can she really be considered a rival?

Mr. Mo is just too full of himself!

Hearing this, Mr. Mo was somewhat unable to react.

Chu Jin simply reached out to move him aside and walked straight into the house.

Once inside, Chu Jin poured herself a glass of water and looked at Mo Zhixuan, asking, "So what’s the deal with this trial ground, anyway?"

Want to know?" Mo Zhixuan raised an eyebrow, "Beg me."

Chu Jin found that Mr. Mo had been getting cheekier lately.

"I’m begging you," Chu Jin complied readily, her fingers curling in a mock ’kneeling’ gesture, "Please, I beg you."

Mr. Mo immediately said with satisfaction, "Come here, let me give you a tutorial."

In fact, Mo Zhixuan wasn’t worried at all that Chu Jin would lose.

With her strength, nobody could make her lose.

Chu Jin carried a glass of water over, and Mo Zhixuan extended a hand to wrap around her waist, pulling her into his embrace to sit firmly. He rested his chin on her shoulder before he slowly began to speak, "The trial grounds are essentially a competition. During the competition, the arenas are divided according to the number of participants..."

He spoke at a measured pace, and just as they were reaching a critical part of the explanation, Chu Jin felt a sudden surge in her stomach, a wave of acidity rising from within. Quickly covering her mouth with her hand, she struggled out of Mo Zhixuan’s arms and dashed toward the bathroom, leaning over the sink and retching.

It was as if she wanted to vomit out her entire stomach.

Mo Zhixuan followed right behind her, not detesting the sight of her vomit. He patted Chu Jin on the back with concern, "What’s the matter? Does your stomach hurt? Do you want to go to the hospital and have it checked?"

Chu Jin turned on the faucet, took a mouthful of tap water, moistened her throat, and then spat it out. "It’s nothing, just feeling a bit nauseous. I’ll be fine in a moment." She wasn’t sure what had been going on with her body recently. First, she was experiencing overall weakness and sleepiness, and just when she thought she had gotten past the sleepiness, she started feeling nauseous.

However, these were all minor issues, and she didn’t give them much thought.

Who doesn’t fall ill from eating grains?

"Are you sure it’s nothing?" Mo Zhixuan looked at her pale reflection in the mirror, a hint of worry evident in his eyes.

"I’m sure it’s nothing." Chu Jin smiled and pulled out a tissue to wipe her face.

"But you’ve gone so pale! Let’s still visit the hospital to be safe," Mo Zhixuan said, still worried.

"I’m naturally pale, unlike you, so dark!" Chu Jin raised an eyebrow slightly, "Besides, I’m a doctor myself. I know my body well. Really, there’s no need for you to worry about me."

Chu Jin knew her own body well enough to be aware that there was nothing wrong without even taking her pulse.

Seeing this, Mo Zhixuan touched her forehead, then his own, confirming there was no issue with her temperature. He continued, "If there’s anything that feels wrong, you must tell me immediately. You might be a doctor, yes, but remember the saying, ’Doctors can’t treat themselves.’

Mo Zhixuan still had some concerns. After all, Chu Jin had been missing for a year, and he feared that this might be a repercussion from that event.

Lately, it seemed Chu Jin had gotten thinner.

Her delicate waist looked as if it could break with the slightest gust of wind.

It appeared she was in need of some serious nourishment.

Mo Zhixuan stroked his chin in thought.

"I understand, there won’t be any problems." Chu Jin looped her arm around Mo Zhixuan’s, "Now, continue to enlighten me about the trial grounds, will you?"

Seeing her like this, Mo Zhixuan had no choice but to continue briefing her on the trial grounds.

Just as the Elder had said, the leading ladies of the Superpower World from generations past had all been tested in the trial grounds.

Only by passing all the trials could one stay by Mo Zhixuan’s side.

And only then would they truly command the reverence of the masses under their feet.

This time, with the Elder involved, the news of the Chief’s selection of a wife had spread throughout the entire Superpower World. When the time came, all eligible unmarried women with abilities in the Superpower World would come forth. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and by any means necessary, being the last one standing in the trial grounds would make one the most revered woman in the Superpower World. Once Mo Zhixuan unified the Three Realms, she would become the most honored woman across all three.

But, how could this news be confined just to the Superpower World?

The bigger the commotion, the better.

Preferably, it should spread to the other two realms as well.

Mo Zhixuan stood in his office by the floor-to-ceiling windows, his eyes slightly narrowed, a spark of light flashing through his deep, phoenix eyes.

"Xun En," he called out in a low voice.

"Yes, sir," Li Xunen entered the room upon being summoned.

Mo Zhixuan flicked the ash from his cigarette and then said, "Spread the news about the lady’s participation in the trial grounds. The further, the better. Ideally, it should reach the ears of the other two realms."
