After hearing about Hu Lai's past and hearing about You Xiao Chan's oath, Xia Yi dispelled his suspicions about Xie Tian.
However …
"You Xiao Chan, are you sure Hu Lai has the strength to fight a thousand alone?"
Xia Yi asked the question that was on everyone's mind. If Hu Lai really had such strength, why had he been chased out of the courtyard?
You Xiao Chan smiled mysteriously. "Sect Master, Xiao Chan is very sure."
It seemed that this was You Xiao Chan's backup plan. Everyone exchanged glances and sighed inwardly at You Xiao Chan's frightening intelligence.
They had already fallen into desperate straits and lost all face, but You Xiao Chan had already set up a secret move. Chasing Hu Lai away was a lie, but it was actually a hidden trump card. She had used Hu Lai at the critical moment to reverse the situation.
"Borrowing Huang Hua's hand to spread his reputation, even if it's infamy. Using Hu Lai to reverse everything, not only did his reputation become even greater, but his infamy also became a beautiful one."
Zhu Qing's face was ashen as he felt like he had been played. He gritted his teeth and cursed, "What a despicable scheme. Since you're shameless, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
After leaving the meeting hall, You Xiao Chan's footsteps quickened as she headed straight for the ordinary disciples' area.
"Young Miss, we'll just go. Your precious body cannot be touched so easily!"
The person they had looked down on was actually this terrifying. You Da and the others still hadn't recovered from their shock. Seeing their master personally go to welcome them, they felt even more uncomfortable.
You Xiao Chan suddenly turned around. "I won't pursue what happened before, but from now on, the twelve of you will be led by Hu Lai. His words are my words, understand?"
"Yes!"
Xie Tian's figure once again appeared in You Xiao Chan's mind.
She had already erased this figure from her mind, but she had never expected that the other party would actually turn the tables in her most difficult time.
"That's right, you wholeheartedly cultivated, so you had no complaints when your companions chased you away."
"After coming out of seclusion, you angrily attacked Huang Hua and turned the tide!"
You Xiao Chan's thoughts spun, and her eyes grew brighter. "I know that your actions in the You Clan were to hide your strength. But why did you jump out again?"
She would never believe that a monkey had been kicked, and she had never seen a monkey by Xie Tian's side.
"Could it be …"
You Xiao Chan's footsteps paused as a faint blush appeared on her beautiful face.
As if she knew the reason behind Xie Tian's attack, the image of a fawn appeared in her heart. But before she could stretch out her hoof to kick him, the image of the fawn was crushed by the cruel reality.
"Sigh, even if you are outstanding, you can't help me complete those three tasks."
You Xiao Chan shook her head. There were some things that couldn't be solved with battle prowess. Only heaven-defying aptitude could solve it. In this aspect, only Prince Jin, Zhong Huai, was qualified.
"Miss, we've arrived."
You Xiao Chan came back to her senses and raised her head to look at the hole. Her face immediately darkened, and she glared at You Da before stepping forward and lightly knocking on the stone door.
"Deacon Hu Lai, I'm Little Chan."
You Xiao Chan frowned slightly when she received no response. At this moment, a mocking voice rang out.
"Oh, the grand third miss of the You family can't even enter her own follower's door?"
You Xiao Chan turned her head to look at Huang Hua, a faint smile on her face as she said, "I didn't expect Senior Brother Huang to be in the mood to come here. What a surprise."
Huang Hua's expression immediately darkened, and his anger surged.
An hour ago, when he had heard of this matter, Huang Hua had almost coughed up a mouthful of blood. He had never imagined that the situation would undergo such a drastic change.
After nine attempts, the last follower had finally appeared. He had been waiting for this person to be captured by an ordinary disciple so that he could deal the final blow to You Xiao Chan's follower.
In the end, the other party had fought one against a thousand. Not only had she slapped him in the face, but she had also beautifully counterattacked!
Huang Hua, who had brought his own humiliation to perfection, had now become the biggest joke in the world. How could he swallow this anger?
He had come to find You Xiao Chan, and he had opened his mouth to mock her to vent his anger. But a single sentence from her had caused his insides to burn.
"You Xiao Chan, if you have the ability, then don't play tricks. Let's fight face to face. The loser will scram from the Body Sect!"
You Xiao Chan didn't get angry. "Xiao Chan's body is weak, and I'm not Senior Brother's match. Furthermore, Senior Brother has always been the one to take the initiative in this matter. Whether we advance or retreat is up to you, not me."
"Retreat? Haha!" Huang Hua laughed coldly. "Hu Lai only won against trash ordinary disciples. Why should I retreat? Heh, since Junior Sister Xiao Chan has such an expert, then tomorrow, I'll bring Qie to experience it for myself."
Huang Hua snorted and left in a huff.
"Miss, Administrator Hu Lai isn't here. What should we do?"
You Xiao Chan sighed. "Don't spread this matter. The more mysterious it is, the better. If outsiders ask, just say that I arranged everything."
"Yes!"
"Hey, Hu Lai, where did you go?!"
Returning to the courtyard, the dejected You Xiao Chan's heart jumped when she saw Zhong Huai standing with his hands clasped behind his back.
"Your Highness, you!"
Zhong Huai suddenly turned around and looked coldly at You Xiao Chan. "Didn't you say he was dead?"
"It was a misunderstanding, I thought —"
"There's no misunderstanding!" Zhong Huai angrily interrupted her. "If you want this King to help you, then kill him!"
You Xiao Chan was shocked. "Your Highness, Administrator Hu Lai is a member of my You Family. Xiao Chan will definitely not agree to your request!"
"Heh, a mere administrator has such a position in your heart." Zhong Huai laughed in anger and left. "Since that's the case, why do you need this King's help? Go find your administrator."
You Da and the others had bitter expressions. Things had taken a turn for the better, but their own people had gotten into a conflict.
"Miss, what do we do?"
You Xiao Chan's joy immediately vanished, and she bitterly said, "Zhong Huai is the key to victory or defeat."
"Then, should we still find Administrator Hu Lai?"
"There's no need, and you won't be able to find him anyway."
Before she finished speaking, a stone was thrown into the courtyard. Everyone looked over and saw a piece of paper wrapped around the stone.
"That person is in the Heaven Earth Spiritual Pool!"
You Xiao Chan's heart jumped. "It's Xu Shaoxiang!"
"Miss, I'll go find him."
You Xiao Chan muttered to herself for a long time before saying, "I'll go personally. If Huang Hua comes tomorrow, you guys do this."
After giving her instructions, she went straight out of the courtyard. Not long after, she arrived at the Spiritual Pool of Heaven and Earth and jumped in.
"This place is very strict. How did he do it?" You Xiao Chan pondered as she walked. "I'm an inheritance disciple, and there are no restrictions for me to enter. He borrowed my name."
If it was in the past, she wouldn't have given Xie Tian any face even if she didn't scold Xie Tian.
However, Xie Tian had unintentionally helped her solve a big problem, and You Xiao Chan's impression of him had changed greatly. This kind of thing could actually make her praise him, if You Da and the others heard this, they would definitely cry.
As time passed, even if she wasn't good at cultivation, her Nirvana realm cultivation was enough for her to reach six thousand meters.
"There's no one here?" You Xiao Chan's eyes brightened. "Is he still below? Hu Lai, just how much strength are you hiding?"
You Xiao Chan wanted to probe deeper, but eight thousand meters was her limit.
"If I go any further, it will be the Embryonic Realm. Impossible!"
No matter how monstrous her mind was, she didn't think that Xie Tian was below. Even the Undying Divine Body Zhong Huai couldn't do it.
"Sigh!"
You Xiao Chan sighed in disappointment and left.
After clearing out the disciples bought by the She Clan, the atmosphere in the Body Sect finally eased up.
At the same time, Huang Hua's provocation was still ongoing. You Da and the others learned their lesson and admitted defeat as soon as they went up. They then looked at Carving Sickle with a 'you're great' expression.
"Shameless!"
Huang Hua clenched his teeth in anger and left in a huff. He was so pleased that he admitted defeat.
After a few days, he finally couldn't help but slap Carving Sickle in the face and vent his anger on his follower.
Carving Sickle was expressionless, but his heart was cold.
After all, he was the number one core disciple. He couldn't become an inheritance disciple due to his aptitude, but if he continued to cultivate, he would definitely become an elder.
The reason why he became Huang Hua's follower was because he admired Huang Hua, who had obtained Patriarch Poshan's inheritance.
This slap sobered him up quite a bit.
Huang Hua also realized something was wrong and quickly sighed. "I was too angry. Please don't mind Carving Sickle. How about this, there's no point in continuing. Take my token and go to the Heaven Earth Spiritual Pool to cultivate for ten days."
Carving Sickle's eyes brightened. Core disciples only had three chances to enter the Heaven Earth Spiritual Pool every year, and it was only for one day each time. These ten days were a great opportunity for him.
"Many thanks, Young Master."
After Carving Sickle left, Huang Hua's face twisted. "Damn Hu Lai! You Xiao Chan, you've embarrassed me like this. I won't let you off!"
