76 -076: Stunning the City, Talk is Like Farting
At this moment, the entire place was dead silent.
Everyone’s eyes were fixed on the slender figure shrouded in a veil, their gazes filled with disbelief.
Su Yuexi had actually won, and her swordsmanship was so beautiful, her figure so graceful.
This scene was unforgettable for countless people.
Sikong Jing looked at Su Yuexi with a satisfied smile, for she had officially taken her first step as the unrivaled fighter of Yunye City.
“The first battle, Su Family’s Su Yuexi wins.” After a long while, the City Lord’s guard officer announced.
Instantly, a tumultuous uproar broke out, like the roaring of the sea.
And Luo Zhi finally came to his senses, bellowing, “No, it’s impossible for me to lose to this freak, I demand a rematch.”
However, he was dragged away by the City Lord’s guards.
A loss was a loss; the whole audience had seen it.
It was then that Luo Tong’s voice arose.
“Guard officer, I challenge this.”
“I suspect that this Su Yuexi is an impostor.
She didn’t know any martial arts seven days ago.”
“I want you to remove her veil and verify her true identity!”
His voice was heavy with resentment.
Luo Tong had been beaten by Su Zhenglong when he was young, and now even his son was defeated by Su Zhenglong’s daughter.
Where was the justice in that?
That’s why he suspected that Su Yuexi was a fake.
“To have the freak unveil herself in front of the whole city?
Could there be anything more thrilling?”
Young Master Chu of the Chu Family couldn’t help but think darkly and then stood up excitedly, shouting loudly, “Exactly, our Chu Family also questions the identity of Su Yuexi.
We must verify the true identity of this woman.”
As he said this, Chu Bo’s eyes were full of malicious glee.
Damn it all, being forced to kneel in Heavenly Martial Pavilion and loudly proclaiming three times that Su Yuexi was the most beautiful woman in the world.
Now he was going to turn the tables and expose the ugliest woman in Yunzhou for all to see.
Following Chu Bo’s words, all the busybodies in the audience also began to clamor, eager to see the ugliest in Yunzhou.
At this point, a middle-aged City Lord guard officer stepped forward, raised his hand to quiet the crowd, and declared, “Indeed, we should verify her identity.
The Great Competition of Yunzhou is no trifling matter; only true residents of Yunye City are permitted to compete.”
At that, he turned to Su Yuexi and said, “Miss Su from the Su Family, please remove your veil.”
Su Yuexi trembled all over and then slowly reached for her veil, her hands shaking.
Even now, she looked in the mirror every day, afraid that she would wake up ugly again one day.
But faced with almost the entire city, she was still scared.
What if she had become ugly again?
What if, after removing the veil, she was met with ridicule from the entire audience?
Su Yuexi’s gaze once again fell on the spectators’ stand, where she could faintly make out Brother Jing’s figure.
He was smiling and nodding at her, giving her courage.
Taking a deep breath, Su Yuexi finally yanked off the veil forcefully.
At this moment in the spectator stands, a man sneered at Sikong Jing, “You’d better open your damn eyes wide and see what the ugliest in Yunzhou looks like.
If she isn’t ugly, I’ll…
Holy shit!”
He had only gotten halfway through when he turned his snickering gaze to Su Yuexi, just in time to witness her veil falling away.
An expletive burst from his mouth as a face of peerless beauty was revealed before him.
All noise in the audience disappeared, leaving only the sound of people swallowing.
Everyone seated stood up, including Young Master Chu Bo who was preparing to exact revenge; he stood there, slack-jawed.
The middle-aged guard officer beside Su Yuexi also widened his eyes in shock.
Only those who had seen Su Yuexi regain her beauty at the Su family’s birthday banquet could remain somewhat composed, but this calm was not absolute, for she was truly too beautiful.
And for them, it was only the second time they had seen her.
Sikong Jing smiled as he watched Su Yuexi in the arena, who now dared to call his wife ugly?
From this day forth, the name of ugliness would be completely erased.
It was quite some time before the City Lord’s guard officer snapped back to reality and inquired, “Are you really Su Yuexi of the Su Family?”
Without a mirror, Su Yuexi didn’t know what everyone now thought of her.
The silence around her was too profound, she also feared it might be the shock from seeing her ugliness.
Upon hearing this, Su Yuexi gently replied, “Of course, I am Su Yuexi.”
“Why aren’t you ugly anymore?” the guard officer pressed on.
Not ugly anymore, truly no longer ugly…
Su Yuexi’s mood suddenly relaxed, and she replied, “Because of my husband, his name is Sikong Jing, he is a treasure granted to me by the Lord of Yunzhou, it was he who cured my face.”
At that moment, Su Yuexi’s voice grew louder, each word was crystal clear, she wanted to tell everyone this fact.
His name was Sikong Jing, he was her husband, so what if he was a criminal?
Then, two figures rushed onto the stage, it was the Su Zhenglong couple, brimming with pride as they said, “Lord, she is indeed our daughter, she is Su Yuexi.”
The guard officer hesitated before turning to look at Su Xuefeng, whose face was dark as he nodded heavily.
Clearly, there was no mistake now, and many people at the birthday celebration could testify, even Luo Tong clenched his teeth and stayed silent.
“Since the identity is confirmed, step down and wait for the second round,” said the guard officer.
Having said that, the guard officer spoke no further, while Su Zhenglong and Mei Xiaofang, bursting with euphoria, pulled Su Yuexi off the stage.
But just at that moment, Su Yuexi stopped in her tracks and turned to look at the audience again.
Yet she couldn’t find Sikong Jing any longer, only heard a crowd roaring something…
about standing upside down and eating shit.
How strange, why would they do such a disgusting thing?
At this time, Sikong Jing had naturally left his previous spot and headed in the direction of the Su family members.
Over here, the Su Zhenglong couple had already taken Su Yuexi to stand before Su Xuefeng and the others from the Su family.
Mei Xiaofang, with her nose in the air, proclaimed, “Old Master Su, isn’t it time to announce the restoration of all privileges for our family?”
Even now, her way of addressing Su Xuefeng felt very alien.
And Su Yuexi too, looked at Su Xuefeng with excitement.
Having won the first match, Grandpa should fulfill his promise now.
At this moment, Su Yuexi finally felt she was of use, that she could finally do something for Dad, Mom, and Brother Jing.
Su Xuefeng’s grim expression slowly returned to normal, the corners of his frowning mouth suddenly twitched upward, and he said indifferently, “Yuexi, you’ve gone from knowing no martial arts to reaching the Dark Realm First Level in seven days.
Have you taken some Elixir?”
This question piqued the curiosity of even the Su Zhenglong couple.
“It was Brother Jing who gave me three Green Jade Papers and guided my cultivation that led to this,” Su Yuexi replied truthfully.
With a slight frown, Su Xuefeng said, “So, these three Green Jade Papers are very powerful, huh?”
“Yes, they should be very powerful,” Su Yuexi still nodded.
“Then, hand them over,” suddenly, Su Xuefeng extended his hand, his tone turning icy.
The faces of the Su Zhenglong couple and Su Yuexi changed drastically, Mei Xiaofang shouted, “You old thing, didn’t you just say…”
“What did I say?
Did any of you hear it?” Su Xuefeng interrupted without hesitation.
Su Zhengtao and Su Yun, along with other Su family members, stepped out, smirking and shaking their heads, chiming in unison, “We didn’t hear anything, except that Su Yuexi must hand over the Green Jade Papers, not a single one less.”
