Chapter 245: Sixteen

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Ying raised her eyebrows and glared at Ling Wuxia.

She knew what Ling Wuxia was thinking, as well as her motive. This girl isn’t evil, just that the way she does things is… always beating around the bush.

Of course, that’s just what I think. Everyone else sees her as a gentle and fair person who’s patient as well.

Ying was dying to see how Lu Mingshu would react to this. Would she still let Ling Wuxia have the upper hand like the previous time?

“My opinion is that…” She heard Lu Mingshu start.

Everyone present turned toward her. Even though they disliked her due to many reasons, it was a fact that she was good in areas that others weren’t, which allowed her to be better.

“We should submit ourselves to the will of heaven.”

This annoyed Junior Sister Zuo. “You can just say you’re unwilling to share. There’s no need to be so rude.”

Lu Mingshu rolled her eyes at her, showing that she wasn’t interested in replying.

This blew Junior Sister Zuo’s top. “Are you deaf? Can’t you hear that I’m talking to you?”

“Can you chill out? Are all the Ancient Jade Summit people like this?” Lu Mingshu stared at her weirdly. “Miss, you’re so intelligent. There’s no way you can’t read my face.”

Junior Sister Zuo narrowed her eyes.

Lu Mingshu smirked and pointed to her own face. “It reads, ‘I’m not interested in talking to you.'”

“This…!”Junior Sister Zuo pointed at her, fuming.

Lu Mingshu looked away and plopped down by a corner. “A friendly reminder by the way, there are still people coming. Rest now before everyone else gets here!”

Ling Wuxia pulled Junior Sister Zuo away to a corner, and the Ancient Jade Summit trio found a spot to rest.

“Senior Sister!” Junior Sister Zuo was seeing red. “Why are you tolerating that annoying witch?”

Ling Wuxia shook her head. “She’s right. There are others who will come soon, so we should take the chance to rest now.” She paused before continuing. “If I’m not wrong, the next segment will commence soon.”

“Yes, Junior Sister,” Junior Brother He interrupted to pacify her. “We have more important things to deal with right now, she’s not our priority.”

Hearing her seniors, she had no choice but to agree with them. “Okay, I got it.”

On the other hand, the girl in black rolled her eyes at Lu Mingshu. “I swear, you’re such a weirdo. You said that you wanted peace, yet you’re being such a rude kid right now?”

“Are you concerned about me?”

Ying nearly ripped her to pieces after hearing this. It’s so embarrassing. Now I sound like I care about her. “Who would worry about you!? Could you stop being such a self-centred freak who loves herself too much?”

“If you don’t care, why are you overreacting?”

“…”

“Whatever. Seize this time to rest, you will meet more annoying things shortly.”

After that, the Ye brothers and the Huo brothers came in, followed by a few sect disciples.

When the sky turned dark, no more came over. There was a total of sixteen in the house.

Everyone was aware that those who didn’t make it here were eliminated.

The sky was now dark, but no one dared to light the house up knowing that there were beasts outside.

In the silent night, the sixteen disciples in the house didn’t get to sleep. It was so dark that they couldn’t see anything, but they could hear faint breathing sounds, which made everyone anxious.

None of them slept peacefully that night.

The sun finally rose up, and the crying of the ferocious beasts got further and further away. Everyone started to relax.

The foreign aggression was settled, but the tension started rising between them.

Those who managed to reach the house passed the first segment. So what’s next?

“Guys!” In the anxious tension, Ling Wuxia spoke up.

Lu Mingshu’s mouth moved a bit. It was unknown whether she was sneering or smiling.

But what Lu Mingshu thought meant nothing to Ling Wuxia. Ling Wuxia stood up and spoke, “I guess that everyone’s aware of our situation now. So, may I ask for your opinions on the next step?”

A disciple answered almost immediately, “Senior Sister Ling, we will listen to you now. You can just say anything that you want now. ”

“I agree!” Someone supported him. “Among us, you’re the most capable, farsighted, and responsible. You’re the best to take make the decisions now. There’s no need to ask.”

“Same for me. Anything Miss Ling says.”

“Me too.”

Ling Wuxia flashed them a wide smile and clapped, signalling for them to keep quiet. “Since everyone says so, then I won’t beat around the bush.” She glanced over at Lu Mingshu and the girl in black. “It’s a good situation and a bad one too. It’s good that we all have passed the first segment, but it’s bad that we’re at a loss as to our next step.”

“Senior sister, so what shall we do?” Being impatient, Junior Sister Zuo interrupted her.

“Hey, calm down.” Ling Wuxia smiled thinly at her while making her way to the window. “There are still beasts lurking outside. I think that they are trying to block our way.”

This sent all the disciples present panicking.

“Oh my god, what should we do?”

“Are we going to be trapped here forever?”

“Most likely not. Why would the Grandmaster trap us here? There is obviously a way out.”

“Oh yeah! That’s why it’s a test!”

“Senior Sister Ling, you have an idea right now, right?”

Ling Wuxia nodded, smiling at them. “I do have an opinion, and feel free to comment on it.” She pointed out the window. “Since they do not want us to leave, it shows that they want us to proceed to the next segment here.”

The crowd nodded in agreement.

“So what does Miss Ling suggest we do?”

Ling Wuxia looked around the house and clapped her hands. “The clue should be here. With all of us, we should find it quickly.”

“I’m on it, let’s get started.”

“Yeah, what are you guys waiting for?”

The crowd stood up excitedly, waiting for Ling Wuxia’s command.

But Ling Wuxia turned to Lu Mingshu instead. “Miss Lu, what about you?”

Being stared at, Lu Mingshu nodded emotionally. “Miss Ling is right.”

“So, do you approve?”

Lu Mingshu smiled. “Yeah, it’s not a bad idea.”

Upon hearing this, Ling Wuxia smiled like a Cheshire Cat. “That’s great. Since Miss Lu is fine with it too, then let’s start.”

The crowd immediately separated and flipped the house upside down, not sparing any corner.

Ying followed Lu Mingshu everywhere. Suddenly, she spoke up, “Oh! I know now.”

“What?” Lu Mingshu replied casually.

Only

“You just dislike them.”

Lu Mingshu gave her a thin smile and continued her search.

“Such a pity that I thought you were mature. Who knew that you’re just a petty kid who wants to shame them?”

“So why are you complaining?”

Ying looked at her blankly. Complaining? Who’s complaining?

“Be at ease. There’s an advantage to her being a hypocrite. She won’t treat me badly for now.”

“…I don’t give a damn about you!” Ying rolled her eyes and said firmly.
