Chapter 9: Chapter 9: Demonstrate Determination with Death [Thanks to the Mad Alliance Head Juelian]



"This..."

Seeing that the other party was still spasming as if there were no signs of recovery, Mo Yanxue could no longer hold back. She quickly stepped forward and pulled on the reins of the Suxiang Horse, "Are you alright?"

"Don't worry, Miss, I can still hold on..."

Zhang Xuan's weak voice sounded.

Feeling slightly embarrassed, Mo Yanxue coughed lightly and said, "This... the killing intent within the Moyun jade stone has been consumed by the Suxiang, it's gone!"

"Gone?"

Startled, Zhang Xuan's convulsing body visibly stiffened for a moment, he slowly opened his eyes, then immediately saw a series of puzzled looks around him.

Realizing what happened, his eyelid twitched, Zhang Xuan looked slightly embarrassed.

It seemed... he had overacted a bit!

The killing aura within the Moyun jade stone, to someone of his status as a ruler of a realm, was negligible, especially since the Suxiang had blocked 99.9% of it, making it almost unfelt. However, appearing too calm might have exposed him, so... he feigned mental breakdown!

Now it seemed, the breakdown was a bit much...

It wasn't really his fault, who could have expected that this worthless horse had such poor acting skills, not only was it not afraid of the Moyun jade stone, it even ate it on the spot.

Can you not be reliable?

I, Zhang Xuan, the World's Teacher, such a reliable person, how did I end up with an unreliable guy like this?

Embarrassing!

"If I say... that the killing intent just now was too overwhelming, and I'm still not over it... would the young mistress believe me?"

Hesitating for a moment, Zhang Xuan tentatively glanced over.

Mo Yanxue nodded.

Apart from this explanation, she really couldn't think of what else could have happened.

Relieved, Zhang Xuan jumped off the horse's back, and just as he was about to inquire about her promise of 100 Origin Currency, an angry rebuke sounded, "Return my Moyun jade stone..."

Turning his head, he saw Liu Mingyue, who had been unsurpassedly arrogant just moments before, now had reddened eyes.

Mo Yanxue said, "The stone was brought out by you for our challenge. Now that the Suxiang has swallowed it, I really can't do anything about it!"

"No! You must give it back..."

Liu Mingyue looked desperate.

Mo Yanxue frowned, "Are you being reasonable? You lost, haven't apologized yet, instead you're asking me for your item..."

"Wow..."

Liu Mingyue, who had been so dominant before, suddenly cried out "Wow!" and started crying, "I stole it from home, if my dad finds out, he will definitely scold me, please give it back..."

Mo Yanxue was somewhat at a loss for a moment, then turned to Zhang Xuan, "Can it... be taken out?"

After pondering for a moment, Zhang Xuan nodded, "If you feed it more fodder, it should be able to defecate it out quickly..."

"Wow..."

Liu Mingyue cried even harder.

"Alright, alright!"

Annoyed by the noise, Mo Yanxue waved her hand, "I'll apply for a new piece from the clan to send back to you later, let's just leave it at that for this piece. However, you lost the bet, you still need to apologize, crying won't help!"

Although the Moyun jade stones were rare, for the Mo Family as one of the Three Premier Clans, it was still possible to spare a few.

Hearing that she would get a replacement, Liu Mingyue finally sighed in relief, sobbed a few more times, stabilized her emotions, then looked around, "I, Liu Mingyue, accept the bet and admit my loss, I sincerely apologize to Miss Xiaoyu and Suxiang, I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong!"

As promised, she repeated "I was wrong" three times.

"That's more like it..."

Mo Yanxue relaxed, even Xiaoyu nodded in satisfaction.

This person had clashed with them from their very first meeting, and to see her stumble so greatly was immensely satisfying; she probably wouldn't dare to cause trouble for a while.

"Let's go!"

Since there was no real grudge, seeing her apologize, Mo Yanxue didn't want to pursue it any further and immediately headed towards the school.

At that moment, because of their competition, the doorway was already crowded. She certainly didn't want to be spectated like a monkey.

Having walked only a few steps, Mo Yanxue remembered something, turned her head back, and said, "Zhang Xuan, come with me. Housekeeper Feng, you and the others, stay here and take care of the Suxiang Horse... "

"I..." Feng Jin twitched his mouth, but ultimately dared not say more.

Unbelievably, the housekeeper didn't even have the privilege to enter the School with the young lady. If word got out, it would be profoundly embarrassing. Nonetheless, there was no other choice; who else could subdue the Suxiang Horse?

"Thank you, Young Mistress!"

Seeing that she was actually bringing him along, Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief, grabbed the Suxiang Horse's ear, whispered a few instructions, and then quickly followed her.

Baiyan Academy covered more than ten thousand acres, a vast area indeed. The students about to be assessed this year, accompanied by their families, carried big and small bags along the streets. Some seniors shuffled back and forth, eagerly helping the new junior sisters and assisting them.

In the whole academy, let alone Baiyan City, Mo Yanxue and Yu Xiaoyu were top-tier. Having just entered the campus, they immediately attracted many senior brothers eager to help. However, seeing Yu Feng standing in the forefront, everyone quieted down.

The son of the city lord, coupled with his own talent and strength, no one dared to act out of line.

"The Source Pool assessment is just ahead at the training ground. Let's head straight there. After we secure our admission, we can then figure out how to choose a teacher..." Yu Feng explained as they walked.

Mo Yanxue and Yu Xiaoyu nodded simultaneously. They had some knowledge about the School's rules and, even without saying, understood what to do.

After walking a while and seeing that there weren't many people around, Yu Xiaoyu approached her best friend with a smile, lowering her voice, "Xue'er, your coachman is quite capable. How about... you let me have him?"

"Give him to you?"

Mo Yanxue looked over.

Yu Xiaoyu said, "Yes, it's just a subordinate. If not, I'll pay 1000 Origin Currencies to buy him!"

Mo Yanxue shook her head, "Not for sale!"

"I'm begging you..." Yu Xiaoyu batted her eyelashes vigorously.

Mo Yanxue responded, "Using these tactics on me is useless. I said not for sale, so it's not for sale!"

...

Outside the campus, seeing the Young Mistress and Zhang Xuan disappear from view, Wu Xiang could no longer hold back, "Housekeeper Feng, now that Zhang Xuan has caught the young mistress's eye, I'm afraid he'll cause us trouble later... "

"Even if he does, what can we do! You know the young mistress's temper as well as I do. Whatever she decides, the clan head won't oppose it..."

The more Feng Jin thought about it, the more annoyed he became. Rubbing his temples, he glanced at the Suxiang Horse not far away, "You could listen to anyone else, why did you have to listen to that guy... "

"Indeed..."

As if inspired, Wu Xiang's eyes lit up, "Right, since Zhang Xuan can tame it, Housekeeper, maybe you could too? Why don't you try now? If you succeed, with your respected status, Zhang Xuan won't be an issue anymore!"

"Right, give it a try. The Young Mistress won't mind!"

Feng Jin unconsciously nodded, took a couple of steps towards the Suxiang Horse, and cautiously reached out his hand.

Yu Xiaoyu had touched it like this before, and it had been very well-behaved.

Seeing that the Suxiang Horse didn't shy away from his touch, Feng Jin was immediately overjoyed.

After all the fuss, taming was this simple. If only he had known earlier, he wouldn't have let Zhang Xuan succeed...

Hmm, Wu Xiang had a good idea. He would reward him well later.

With a sigh, his palm landed on the horse's elongated face. Feeling his touch, the Suxiang Horse's dark eyes revealed intense sorrow and humiliation, like an innocent maiden harassed and violated...

A tear fell from its eye, and suddenly, the Suxiang Horse turned sharply and dashed straight into a nearby wall.

"Crack!" a sound followed. Its shinbone broke, its head tilted to one side, and the horse, majestic just moments before, immediately stopped breathing.

"What?"

Everything went dark before Feng Jin's eyes, and he collapsed to the ground instantly.

This guy dying by his hand meant he was... utterly ruined!

Others touched you, and you danced with joy; I touched you, and you committed suicide in shame...

Damn it...

How dirty are my hands exactly!

Turning his head toward Wu Xiang, he was full of killing intent.

You indeed had a clever idea, but first, I'll make sure you're dead...
