Chapter 268 Taking Down the Champion
Chapter 268 Taking Down the Champion
Shangguan Yun's face suddenly darkened. He stepped forward, trying to snatch the heart fire from Yun Fuzhao, but Yun Fuzhao had already taken a step back, and he couldn't even touch the hem of his clothes.
All the disciples of the Shangguan family were stunned by this scene and stood there dumbfounded.
"no???"
"It's over, the Shangguan family is finished..."
"How is this possible? Are we hallucinating?"
None of the disciples could accept the situation before them.
However, before they could even question their existence, even more discouraging voices emerged.
"The Grand Clan Competition has ended. Disciples still in the Sea of Illusion, please leave immediately."
It was Tan Xue's voice.
All the Shangguan family disciples looked at each other, and they saw astonishment, shock, and despair in each other's eyes.
Some members of the Shangguan family even covered their faces and cried.
Without their inner fire, their ranking will definitely plummet.
The scions of aristocratic families, accustomed to being high and mighty, could not accept being trampled underfoot.
Only Shangguan Yun behaved somewhat normally; his expression momentarily faltered, but he quickly regained his composure.
She reverted to her cold and unapproachable self.
He stepped out of the Sea of Illusion without expression.
As soon as he stepped out of the Sea of Illusion, Shangguan Yun felt gazes coming from all directions. The complex expressions on those people's faces made him feel extremely uncomfortable.
The disciples, who had been staring blankly, finally snapped out of their daze.
They instinctively looked at Yun Fuzhao.
My fear of this person deepened.
Everything seemed normal when he watched the footage, but at some point, the Shangguan family members started talking to themselves as if possessed, and Shangguan Yun even gave him a whole bag of Heart Flame...
Shangguan Yun walked straight toward Yun Fuzhao, clearly furious, his teeth practically grinding to powder. "How on earth did you do that?"
Yun Fuzhao: "Like this or that."
"When did it become an illusion?"
Shangguan Yunzai carefully searched through every scene in his mind. "Could it be that the time from when you were teleported to where you left was an illusion?"
As he had guessed, Yun Fuzhao had indeed started setting up illusions from there. She had mastered the sixth move of the Illusion Technique to perfection, making the creation of small-scale illusions effortless.
However, it wasn't entirely an illusion; at least Yu Zhiyue and the others were genuinely teleported away. Yun Fuzhao's spiritual energy was insufficient. Only the scene of her being teleported was created.
Her actions undoubtedly shocked the major aristocratic families.
Now that the outcome is decided, even if those powerful families want to play some tricks, it will be to no avail.
Tan Xue had a complicated expression. Although she didn't agree with the result, she couldn't change the outcome in front of everyone.
Therefore, she could only reluctantly announce that the Nameless Family had become the champion of this family competition.
A pure white token was delivered to Yun Fuzhao.
Tan Xue said, "This is the pass to the Tian Shu Pavilion. You can use this token to enter the Tian Shu Pavilion and tell our Pavilion Master your wishes."
This is exactly what Yun Fuzhao wanted.
She looked around and asked, "Now that the written test is over, where is my spirit beast?"
After leaving the Sea of Illusion, she never saw Jiaoyu again.
Tan Xue was taken aback. "Didn't your spirit beast already come out? Maybe it went off to play somewhere else."
"impossible."
Jiaoyu is not that kind of person at all.
At this moment, a disciple spoke up timidly: "Well, actually I didn't see him come out of the Sea of Illusion."
"Now that you mention it, it seems so. I was just focused on the projection stone and didn't notice the exit."
A bad thought flashed through Yun Fuzhao's mind, and she looked at Shangguan Yun, "You did it."
"Yun Fuzhao, don't make false accusations! We're all clearly in the Sea of Illusion, how could we possibly do such a thing?!"
"The 'you' I'm referring to isn't the 'you' of today, but the Shangguan family behind you."
Yun Fuzhao's face turned cold, and before anyone could react, he appeared beside Shangguan Yun in the blink of an eye, with Wuji held to his neck.
"Hand over Jiaoyu, or I'll kill him."
Everyone was stunned by this unexpected turn of events.
"Yun Fuzhao! You want to kill our young master without any evidence?! Do you have a death wish?!"
Of course, this wasn't without evidence. Among all the aristocratic families, only the Shangguan family was able to take Jiaoyu away quietly.
Moreover, they so desperately crave the power of the dragon race and have always claimed to be descendants of the dragon race, making them the most suspicious by any measure.
Shangguan Yun remained calm and said, "I can take you to the Shangguan family."
Shang Ji floated beside her, saying, "What you're doing is dangerous. Be careful you don't get caught in a trap."
This is indeed true.
Thinking of something, Yun Fuzhao suddenly smiled, "Since that's the case, then I'll have a solution for my wish from the Pavilion Master of Tian Shu Pavilion. How about I tell him: 'Merge the Shangguan family into my Wuming family.' What do you think of this wish?"
The elders of the Shangguan family present could no longer sit still.
"What a loud tone!"
"The Pavilion Master of Tian Shu Pavilion is upright and honest; how could he possibly agree to your unreasonable request!"
“Since you all say he is upright and honest,” Yun Fuzhao tilted his head and asked curiously, “then guess what he will think if I tell him what happened today?”
I carefully reviewed the rules of the aristocratic family competition, and there was never a single rule that prohibited someone from participating because their spirit beast was too strong. So, who exactly was behind adding this rule today...?
Yun Fuzhao looked at the Shangguan family elder who had spoken earlier, "Is this your idea?"
Upon hearing this, the elder's face visibly turned ashen. A look of panic flashed in his eyes, realizing he had been caught red-handed.
"Don't spit on anyone!"
That's incredibly weak and ineffective.
Yun Fuzhao: "I don't care whether you did it or not, but my spirit beast disappeared in the Northern Continent. As the number one family, it shouldn't be difficult for you to find it, right?"
The elders of the Shangguan family did not speak, clearly communicating in their minds.
Just as the two sides were deadlocked, a powerful voice rang out.
"I apologize, it was my fault."
A large group of people walked over.
The one in the lead was none other than Shangguan Chang, the head of the Shangguan family.
The man beside him was none other than Jiaoyu, whom Yun Fuzhao was searching for.
"I have invited the Venerable One to my home as a guest." Shangguan Chang said apologetically, "Because Miss Yun is still competing, I was unable to inform her in time. This is indeed something I did not do well enough."
He clapped his hands, and his disciples brought out box after box of large boxes.
It was filled with spirit stones.
"This is a small token of my appreciation. I hope Miss Yun will not let this harm the harmony between our two families."
Yun Fuzhao looked at Jiaoyu, "Is it as he said?"
Jiaoyu hesitated before nodding, "After I left the Void Sea, I was teleported to the Shangguan family. They... didn't do anything to me."
He found it strange precisely because he hadn't done anything.
