"Evil cultivators, don't you dare slander my disciple!" Seeing that Chen Jiu was about to fall into the state of being heartless and unjust, BiYao suddenly stood up and decided for him.
"Yin Yang Sect Leader, you said that I slandered your disciple. Do you dare to let me question him in person?" Wu Qiushui spoke so righteously that it was hard to refuse. She then looked at Chen Jiu and asked, "Little Brother, were you the one who bumped into my Zhu 'er that day?"
"Yes, but …" Chen Jiu nodded. He wanted to explain, but Wu Qiushui obviously didn't give him the chance.
"Enough, you don't have to say anymore!" Wu Qiushui used her power to suppress Chen Jiu and stopped him from explaining. She continued to question him, "Did you give my daughter the Wind Horse Beast after the incident?"
"I did, but that was only compensation!" Chen Jiu said solemnly.
"Fellow Daoists, take a look. The matter is already clear. It's clear that this kid is ungrateful and wants to betray my daughter's true feelings. Could it be that you Righteous Dao people are all so ruthless?" Wu Qiushui actually did not expect Chen Jiu to admit it. Her goal was just to ruin Chen Jiu's reputation.
Just a few words were enough to implicate him and Wu Zhu. As for the real reason, not many people would be willing to investigate!
Not only that, the Righteous Dao people were not united. Naturally, there would be people who would help her hit someone when they were down.
"Chen Jiu, come back with me, okay? What's so good about the Righteous Dao? Or are you planning to infiltrate the Righteous Dao and subvert them? That's too dangerous! "Wu Zhu looked at Chen Jiu with a face full of sincerity.
"Sect Leader, this person's background is unclear. We think we should disqualify him from the Martial Arts Competition and keep him under strict surveillance!" Yellow Earth Cultivator and the others were frustrated that they didn't have a chance to punish Chen Jiu. They didn't care about anything else and immediately suggested.
"That's right, a dignified leader of the Righteous Faction wouldn't accept a demon disciple of the Devil Sect, right?" The people of the Golden Gate also blindly chimed in, thinking that things were not chaotic enough.
The Righteous Faction lacked a true leader and had long since become a faction in name only. On the other hand, the Wicked Faction's people were still united. They worked together to unite Chen Jiu and Wu Zhu!
"Little brother, come back. We'll let bygones be bygones. We'll help you and Zhu 'er hold a grand wedding. You'll still be able to live a good life here!" The leaders of the seven religions tried to rope him in.
The Righteous path was repulsive, while the Corrupt path hid daggers behind their smiles. The Righteous and Corrupt paths were clearly working together to force Chen Jiu into a dead end. They didn't even give him a chance to explain himself!
"Shut up, all of you shut up! I, BiYao, am willing to use my life to guarantee that Chen Jiu has nothing to do with evil sects. If anyone dares to slander him, then don't blame me for being rude!" At the critical moment, it was still BiYao who stood up regardless of her own safety. She didn't hesitate to start a war and suppressed the danger of both sides.
"Master!" Chen Jiu was moved. He took this opportunity to proclaim loudly, "I, Chen Jiu, am greatly indebted to the Yin Yang Sect's leader. I'm willing to swear on her behalf that I have nothing to do with the evil sect's demoness Wu Zhu. I have never done so before, and I won't do so in the future. If I violate this oath, then let me die!"
"What a good oath. Since little brother Chen Jiu is willing to swear such an oath, I think his identity is definitely innocent. This evil sect has always been sinister and vicious. We can't believe everything they say!" Bear Master admired them and tried to mediate the situation.
BiYao was weak, but Bear Master was different. His words still carried a lot of weight and gained the approval of most of the Righteous Faction!
Chen Jiu's matter was temporarily put aside. Wu Qiushui and her daughter were unwilling, but they could only let it go.
The contestants of the Silver Sect went up one by one. Most of them were beautiful women. Of course, there were also a few handsome men, but their combat strength was negligible!
Blood Sect, Soul Sect, Bone Sect, Curse Sect, Poison Sect, Evil Sect, and the other six sects also went up to the stage to make their oaths. Most of them were here to make up the numbers. Only a few of them needed Chen Jiu's attention.
"How is it? After seeing the contestants for this competition, how confident are you in yourself?" BiYao finally looked at Chen Jiu and asked again.
"A bunch of motley crew. If I can't even win against them, how can I live up to the sect leader's protection?" Chen Jiu was very confident and grateful to BiYao.
"You still can't forget to boast!" BiYao scolded. Couldn't this guy be a little more humble?
"I'm not boasting. Why don't you believe me?" Chen Jiu was unhappy.
"Okay, then I'll wait for you to get first place. As the champion, you'll have the chance to pick a treasure. When the time comes, you can't just pick randomly. You have to listen to me, okay?" BiYao suddenly warned him seriously.
"I know, Master. Is the competition still going today?" Chen Jiu answered and asked curiously.
"Of course, it's still going. After some adjustments, we'll draw lots to start the competition!" BiYao couldn't help but look at the stage as she explained.
As she spoke, a huge turntable was pushed onto the stage. There were many number balls on the turntable. Every contestant had to come here to pick up their number ball, then throw it into the turntable. The turntable spun at will to decide their opponent!
It was up to the heavens. The winner would get points, and the loser would lose points. In the end, the contestant with the highest score would fight. This was the fairest competition.
The rules were simple and easy to understand. After the Bear Master explained a little, the contestants went up to the stage to choose their number!
"Chen Jiu, are you really going to be so heartless?" As soon as Chen Jiu came up, Wu Zhu came up to him with evil intentions.
"Witch, if you continue to pester me and slander my reputation, don't blame me for taking your cheap life!" Chen Jiu hated Wu Zhu to the core. If BiYao hadn't protected him with her life, he would have been punished by those Righteous Faction bastards.
"Chen Jiu, I won't let you off!" Wu Zhu was not convinced. Since young, she had relied on her looks and status to be unruly and willful. She had always been successful. But this time, could she still be the same?
"You're asking for death!" Chen Jiu spat. Although he had tender feelings for women, he would still be ruthless!
"Choose your number, young man!" Chen Jiu lined up in front of the turntable. He took out a number ball and wrote 957 on it. After memorizing it, he threw the number ball into the turntable.
"Hualala …" He continued to choose his number. The turntable kept spinning. When everyone had chosen their number, the number balls were thrown into the turntable.
The exciting moment had finally arrived, because everyone's first opponent would soon be selected by the wheel of fortune!
