Chapter 311 - Regret
Under everyone’s watchful gazes, in front of all the Golden Cores who were greeting with cupped fists, Su Zimo came before Xuan Yi and Liu Hui. He bowed deeply and said in a deep voice, “Disciple of Ethereal Peak, Su Zimo, pays his greetings to the peak masters.”
“G-Good child! Hurry, get up!”
Xuan Yi hurried forward and raised Su Zimo’s arms in an emotional manner.
“So, Mr. Mo’s real name is Su Zimo.”
“Mr. Mo is so young. He’s only at Foundation Establishment?”
“Didn’t everyone say that Ethereal Peak is bad at weapon refinement? Why did such a monster appear out of nowhere? This is phenomenal!”
Many Golden Cores muttered softly as they looked at Su Zimo curiously.
Liu Hui turned and wiped her tears, laughing and saying, “Xuan Yi, stop pulling him. Let him get to his seat.”
“Isn’t that right, junior sister?” Si Yutang turned to ask.
Shen Mengqi, who was beside him, seemed to have not heard anything. She stared blankly at the spectator area where that figure was getting further and rising higher, as though she had lost her soul.
Instantly, many things made sense to her.
Why Mr. Mo would send that message for her master, Perfected Being Cang Lang, to kneel down a month ago.
Why Su Zimo would dare declare that Tao Feng wasn’t qualified.
Why Su Zimo was indifferent at the mention of Mr. Mo.
Why Su Zimo would look at her strangely when she mentioned Mr. Mo.
Why even the third princess of Great Zhou would head over.
Why…
All of those questions could be explained with a single answer!
Su Zimo was Mr. Mo!
At that moment, she suddenly felt like a fool.
“The princess’s actions have unknowingly established many powerful foes for you. Let’s see how you deal with things later on!”
Shen Mengqi laughed at herself when she recalled what she had said earlier.
There was no need for Su Zimo to deal with things.
The moment he revealed his identity, it was more than enough.
Shen Mengqi was dazed.
Once upon a time, she thought that she would soar through the skies upon receiving that one in a million immortal affinity. She thought that she would be separated from Su Zimo and become someone of a completely different world from him.
But now, she suddenly realized.
Everything she had possessed in the past couple of years was nothing worth mentioning in front of Su Zimo.
Her life was perhaps lesser than a single promise of Su Zimo.
In that instant, Shen Mengqi regretted.
…
Before long, Su Zimo arrived at the second spectator area where there was only an empty seat.
It was a seat that was beneath a single person and above everyone else; one that ranked equally with the princes, princesses and the chief steward of Sky Treasure Auction House!
The emperor pointed and said, “Go on.”
Su Zimo nodded.
Ji Yaoxue was beside the empty seat.
Both of them smiled at each other. The moment Su Zimo sat down, a gust of fragrant wind blew over.
Right after, someone else appeared on the other side of Su Zimo.
He turned over and was slightly stunned.
Demoness Ji had moved her chair and ran to his left hand side to squeeze with him.
As such, Su Zimo’s seat was sandwiched between the two princesses.
Coughing gently, Su Zimo looked somewhat uneasy instantly.
“Hehe, I’ll sit here!” Demoness Ji chuckled.
Ji Yaoxue looked at her younger sister dotingly and shook her head to smile.
The princes seemed to understand Demoness Ji’s temper and did not say anything, merely smiling. Instead, they nodded to Su Zimo as a form of greeting.
Su Zimo’s heart skipped a beat. Even though no one could tell, he could vaguely sense that Demoness Ji’s laughter was odd!
“I wonder what this demoness is thinking about again.”
Frowning in secret, Su Zimo looked straight ahead.
Right then, the emperor’s voice echoed in all directions.
“Let the sect competition officially begin!”
