Slightly narrowing in his eyes, a flash of coldness flickers in the manâs iris: âI have a way to make that woman lose her reputation and standing. Once thatâs done, it will be easy to expel her from the Holy Land. By then she wonât be able compete with you anymore!â
Nothing but a woman, I can easily deal with her since Iâm a disciple here. No one will be able to displease my little cousin hereâ¦
â¦â¦
In no time at all, three days had come and went just like that. For those coming to attend, they are now gathered at the venue awaiting the start of the test.
Among those standing out the most had to be Huo Yun due to the large entourage she gathered around herself. She exuded the air of proudness, yet cold and distant like a figure of superior status. Nevertheless, the fa?ade on the outside could never hide the impatience on that face.
âMiss!â Suddenly, the maid to the ladyâs side speaks up, âThat woman is coming.â
Shooting her attention over to the indicated direction, Huo Yun could see the mentioned woman and two adorable looking children.
Under the glistening ray of the afternoon sun, the woman was gorgeous and mesmerizing in that rosy red dress, a true fit. Meanwhile the little boy holding the left hand wasnât so bad either. Donning a purple robe of noble air, itâs hard to imagine why such a small child could produce such strong momentum. As to the young missy thatâs holding the right hand, sheâs sweet and pretty to look at. Anyone seeing this picture would simply want to be melt away by that cuteness.
âThis woman is finally here!â Darkening in the face until its somewhat menacing, âDo you remember what I told you before?â
The maid nodded hurriedly: âOf course milady, I remember everything very clearly.â
âGood!â Huo Yun sneers, âCousin is right, this woman deserves to have her reputation ruined!â
Just as Bai Yan was in the middle of leading her two little kids up to the main stage to oversee the test, a sudden sarcastic voice had caught her ear.
âSome people are really shameless nowadays. Even though they are without true skill or ability, they still want to participate in the test! And to think they would try to bribe the judgeâs people just so they can be selected. How can such people be so dumb to think the members of the Holy Land are that easy to be bribed?â
Bai Yanâs forehead immediately furrowed up as she came to a stop. Loosening her grip around the two kids hand, she swings around to lock eyes with the owner of that voice â the maid.
âJust now⦠are you talking about me?â
The maid scoffs, clearly unfazed by the attention: âAm I wrong? I personally saw you trying to bribe a disciple earlier. Where do you think we are? How can a member of the Holy Land be bribed by the likes of you?â
âXiao Ling!â Not giving Bai Yan a chance to speak, Huo Yun pretends to cut her own maid off by asking for more details: âWhat do you mean by those words?â
The maid thatâs known as Xiao Ling complied just like planned: âMilady, itâs like thisâ¦. Earlier when I was out getting something for you, I saw this woman trying to bribe one of the Holy Landâs disciple and even tried to use her own body to temp the poor guy. Of course, I picked up the reasoning is so she can be selected during the test. I truly canât stand for such filth and refuse to let someone so low to be in the same event as you milady, thatâs why Iâm exposing her before the public.â
