âCousin, you misunderstood what I mean. Itâs not that my mentor doesnât want to help you, rather something unexpected has happened. The judge for the test has been changed to someone else. That individual is so mysterious that I canât even find out who it is after spending all morning asking around.â
Bittersweet in the face, Lin Yahan honestly thought the matter would be easily handled with his connections. Who couldâve thought it would make a sudden twist at the endâ¦.
Upon this explanation, the lady herself wasnât looking so good either. No one knows herself better. Unlike the talented geniuses from the other sects, she herself was nothing but a fraud. What talent and ability to tame snakes? Theyâre all boastful lies made by her own sect.
For example, this silvery snake around her wrist was subdued by an elder and then handed to herself. If not for the accessories around her body that could suppress otherâs ability to examine her true strength, the public wouldâve long exposed herself! Now imagine someone poking fun at her in front of the public, thatâs equivalent to playing with dynamite, hence the reason sheâs so obsessed with removing Bai Yan.
âCousin, can you help inquire about that judge then? As long as I know who that person is then Iâm sure I can get them to help me.â Tightly gripping her fist, Huo Yun raises her hopeful face to meet those eyes.
Looking at his little cousinâs pitiful appearance, the young man just couldnât help but shake his head.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âThe Holy Land is very confidential about the identity, and my mentor doesnât even know where that person came fromâ¦. Also, you would never guess, the princess of the Holy Land will be attending the test as her aid!â
Huo Yun was shocked by this news.?If even that evil princess is only worthy of being her aid then what kind of background does that one has?
âHowever, you donât have to worry. Aside from the mysterious judge and the princess, there are some other disciples helping them as well. As it so happens, I know one of them and have a good relationship. Through him, I can guarantee your selection.â Raising those lips, Lin Yahan makes a smile he believes to be quite handsome. âAfter all, no one person can take into account of the entire test. When none is looking Iâll make my move and have you win.â
Huo Yun finally breathed a sigh of relief. Punching the young manâs chest like a shy little maiden: âCousin, Iâm so happy you thought of everything for me. Why didnât you tell me earlier? Making me all worried and stuff. By the way, do you know that womanâs identity yet, the one I told you about?â
Feeling the soft tender hand against his own flesh, then seeing that pristinely white skin around the girlâs neck thatâs almost showing the coveted part, Lin Yahan gulps hard. âIâve had my people check on her already. Donât worry Huo Yun, your big cousin here wonât let you down.â
âOf course, I will always have confidence in you Big Cousin. You have never let me down before.â Hanging that head low like sheâs all shy and stuff, âJust that I hope you can help me make that woman disappear during the selection. I donât want to meet her and her son.â
âHahaha!â Laughing, Lin Yahan went ahead to begin caressing the girlâs hand, âDonât worry Huo Yun, I will do my best. Though I canât directly dismiss that woman due to them all having some sort of background, howeverâ¦.â
