My Master Disconnected Yet Again (Part 4)

Chapter 677: Harming Others and Yourself

Yu Luan already took a step forward and stopped the competition. He pulled Zuo Shuming and said, "Hurry, gather your Qi and focus on forming a core!"

"Forming a core?" Zuo Shuming hesitated. He looked like he had no idea what was going on.

"That's right," Yu Luan said excitedly, nodding his head. He had not thought that he would get such a pleasant surprise from this competition.

"Hurry, sit down!" Lonemoon flew over and looked up. The skies were getting darker. He shouted, "Your lightning tribulation is about to begin."

"Oh... Oh!" Zuo Shuming finally understood what was going on. He was just about to sit down when he realised something. Zuo Shuming turned to look at Shu Yi with a silly look on his face. Grabbing her hand eagerly, he smiled and said, "Thank you... Thank you for your guidance, Senior Sister!"

"..." Swoosh! That was the sound of a knife stabbing Shu Yi straight through the chest.

The more he spoke, the more overwhelmed with gratitude he became. "Whatever you do with your sword will translate to your cultivation! Senior Sister, you really are a genius. I will never forget your teaching."

"..." Another knife went through her heart.

"That's right!" He suddenly turned to face the disciple who had been hosting the competition. "I'm willing to admit defeat in this competition. Senior Sister Shu's comprehension of the sword techniques is indeed above mine."

"..." Swoosh, yet another knife!

It was then that Zuo Shuming finally looked like he was ready. He sat down and began to focus on forming his core. Before he closed his eyes, he quickly added, "Senior Sister Shu, you really are a good person!"

Shu Yi: "..."

The three people around him: "..."

Why did they suddenly feel so much pity for Shu Yi?

Indeed, her already dark expression became even darker so that it resembled the bottom of the pot. She was now shooting daggers at Zuo Shuming with her glare. The three of them could almost see the anger welling up in her chest – she looked like she was about to explode at any moment.

Yu Luan, as the sect master, was beginning to clear out the space. Zuo Shuming's lightning tribulation was approaching them at top speed. He had no choice but to allow Zuo Shuming to form his core at that very spot. The good thing was that the place was already prepared as a battlefield – it was the perfect place for the lightning tribulation to strike. Thus, Yu Luan quickly asked the disciples in the audience to move back at least a hundred metres. At the same time, he stopped the finals of the pill refinement event taking place just next to the battlefield. After all, it would be bad if anyone got hurt in the process. In top speed, Yu Luan cleared out the area.

Tian Ji, who had been hovering above, flew down and dragged a dazed Shu Yi out of the area as well. Comfortingly, he muttered, "This battle was an accident, but don't worry Little Yi, you are the winner through and through."

Shu Yi's expression twisted. Something in her mind seemed to snap. Who cares about being the damned winner! She didn't care for it at all! She did it for... Yes! She wanted to destroy his reputation and make him hated among everyone!

Her eyes brightened. It was then that she recalled her true motive. Shu Yi began to quickly chase the system. "Hurry! System, cause his demonic Qi to explode! Immediately!"

[But Host, the seal will only lift in 20 minutes.]

"Who cares about when the seal will lift at this point in time!" Shu Yi felt her chest tighten. A chill ran down her spine. "If we don't act now, he'll form a core! Hurry up, immediately get rid of the seal and let the demonic Qi go!"
