Chapter 747: The Beginning Of Getting Humiliated!
Zhuge Yun should never be allowed to remain.
However, he could not let him die either.
Since Zhuge Yun had doubted their Ni family in front of everyone, the Ni family would be definitely be suspected if he died out of the blue.
He planned to ask his men to rescue Zhuge Yun in front of everyone.
As to what would he do to him after he had been saved, that was another matter. He should be unable to move an inch at this moment and he would be unable to stand in the way of his plans.
Letting him live not only would prove to the world that the Ni family had no evil intent but they would also win over the hearts of numerous people.
It would also serve as a warning to those from the Zhuge family that the Ni Family was not someone they could challenge and it would have been better for them to behave themselves in the future!
Unlike Ni Biao, Ni Hu was incapable of hiding his emotions, he was already having the ‘we are the winners’ face on. He was looking behind him with extreme distaste when he said, “We’re already here but Zhuge Yun and the rest haven’t. Who knows when they’ll arrive? Don’t let us wait until tomorrow, I don’t have the patience for that.”
“I think that we should enter the graveyard first. Who knows how much longer we’ll have to wait,” someone suggested.
Ni Biao shook his head pretentiously, acting as a wise elder, “It’s not easy for everyone to reach this point, what’s more, Zhuge Yun is the only son of the Zhuge family. It’s alright to wait for them, the sky isn’t even dark yet.”
Never before had anyone dared to humiliate him like those young rascals. He had to return the embarrassment!
Although the others did not understand Ni Biao’s thoughts, his son Ni Hu clearly understood and started laughing arrogantly, “I think we should listen to my father and wait for them.”
“Old Master Ni and Young Master Ni really have a strong sense of justice.” Someone gave them a thumbs-up, praising, “I can’t believe that Old Master Ni is still advising us to wait for Zhuge Yun even though he doubted the Ni family so much.”
“They won’t win even if we waited, there are already 12 teams here including us. Since two of the teams withdrew from the competition voluntarily, Zhuge Yun is definitely the last place.”
A figure walked down from the mountain as the exorcists were busy talking and it was no other than Zhuge Yun. He was unexpectedly relaxed and he even had the leisure to catch three fishes using his mahogany sword.
“Yo, Young Master Yun has finally arrived!” The disciples of Ni family were calling him Young Master Yun but they were actually mocking him. “Where are the two companions of yours? They didn’t die on the way here and end up not being able to come up here with you right?”
“Just look at him, it’s obvious that that happened. Young Master Yun, you really took your time here. We’ve already been here for a while before you finally show up. You have to be disqualified since you’re last!”
Those from the Ni family started laughing loudly after that and nobody tried to stop them.
Ni Hu was also curious as to why Zhuge Yun came up here all by himself. According to the plan, his two uncles should have brought the trio whose limbs were broken here together. So, why are his two uncles nowhere to be seen?
Perhaps they were separated halfway through the journey? Ni Hu looked at Zhuge Yun’s anxious look, confirmed his own guess and walked to Zhuge Yun arrogantly, “Brother Yun, one shouldn’t be too brash as a person, there is a limit as for what you can do. There’s no use in talking big, don’t you agree? See, you’re the one who loses face in the end. Tsk tsk, there’s no need to make things the way they are. You costed your partners’ lives yet you are still unable to qualify to enter the graveyard. Those foreign exorcists are even more hilarious, how dare they say that they wanted to win against the Ni family? They really don’t know their own worth!”
“I…” Zhuge Yun furrowed his brow and wanted to say something.
However, Ni Hu did not bother about it and turned around to face Ni Feng. “Sister, why don’t you tell him when did you place the red flag here so that he understands just how far of a distance is he from the Ni family!”
“Red flag?” Ni Feng began to cough lightly, her elegant features covered by the white veil. Confused, she asked, “What red flag?”
Ni Hu was stunned, “The red flag halfway up the mountain! Aren’t you the one who placed it there?”
“No.” Ni Feng did not notice the issue at all. Due to the consideration of her body condition, she had embarked alone without any other teams, which was also why she was unaware of the use of the red flag. Therefore, she missed the judges’ explanation and instruction to place the flag at the assembly point when they arrived.
Ni Hu was even more confused upon hearing that. Again, he asked, “Didn’t you reach here much earlier?”
“Yeah, I was earlier than you all by about an hour or so.” Ni Feng was still unaware of the rules and had not realized that someone else reached even earlier than her.
Ni Hu was utterly confused after listening to her words, “Are you saying that you reached here only an hour earlier than we did?”
The other exorcists also looked over here with confusion. “That ain’t right. Look at those burnt incense sticks, the red flag should have been placed there for at least three hours ago!”
“Is it possible that someone arrived even earlier than Lady Ni?” someone started to question in disbelief.
Ni Hu immediately rebuked, “How is that possible?!”
“Young Master Ni, you saw that too. Those incense sticks are clearly indicating for longer than an hour.” The exorcists exchanged glances with each other. “If the first person to reach here isn’t Young Lady Ni, then who is it?”
Exactly, who could it be?
Is there anyone who could be faster than Lady Ni?
No one could guess that right!
The faces of the Ni family’s father and son were quite unpleasant at that point. Ni Hu tried to explain, “Either way, all the teams are here right now. If there really was someone who arrived earlier than my sister, why are they not here?”
“Who says that we’re not here?” A sluggish voice came from the tomb entrance as two people walked out from the shadows. Baili Jia Jue’s cool demeanor was exuding an ascetic feeling which kept the others from being too close to him. On the other hand, Helian Wei Wei looked like she just woke up and she yawned in her green and white robe, looking handsome and seductive at the same time. “We arrived too early so we looked for a spot to take a nap and we heard Young Master Ni making fun of us. What an interesting act!”
The expression on the faces of the father and son of the Ni family changed the moment they saw their faces. Both their gaze began to flicker rapidly upon listening to Helian Wei Wei’s words.
How is this possible?
How could these two still be standing here without a scratch?
Ni Hu clenched both his fists tightly. What about my uncles?
Also… what did he say?
They reached here way earlier?!
Ni Hu growled lowly and gave Helian Wei Wei a sneer, “That’s impossible! You can’t be the ones to arrive here first even if you arrived here earlier than us!”
“There’s not impossible, I was the one who placed that red flag,” Zhuge Yun said with a firm tone as he stepped in front of Ni Hu while holding his mahogany sword.
Ni Hu scoffed with amusement upon hearing that, “Brother Yun, was it because you have heard my sister denying placing the red flag and you decided to claim that you were the one to place it there? What a brilliant thinking you have!”
