Chapter 2571 You"re An Animal!
Yun Ting"s face was livid as he arrived at Jun Yu"s room in a huff. Just as he was about to barge in, he seemed to have thought of something and hesitated.
For the past three days, there were all sorts of rumors about Su Zimo and the four great fairies.
Furthermore, they got more exaggerated and ridiculous!
Initially, Yun Ting scoffed at such rumors and thought nothing of them.
However, for the past three days, many cultivators described it with such vividness that even he was starting to believe them.
After three days had pa.s.sed and Jun Yu, Yun Zhu, Mo Qing and Su Zimo were nowhere to be seen, Yun Ting could not hold it in any longer as he rushed here, prepared to ask the truth face-to-face!
Her sister was a princess of an Immortal Kingdom after all—how could she do such a ridiculous thing?!
"My sister must have fallen into Su Zimo"s trap!"
Yun Ting grit his teeth in hatred and spat, "Stupid gigolo of the academy!"
However, even if his sister had lost her mind, what was up with the Chess and Painting Immortals?
Those three fairies were all messing around with Su Zimo?
They spent an entire three days and nights in the room?
Yun Ting was initially furious. However, he hesitated when he rushed to the door of the room.
Naturally, if he caught sight of an indescribable scene upon rus.h.i.+ng in, he would not let Su Zimo off. But, what about his sister?
After all, something like this could not be exposed.
Yun Ting paced left and right at the entrance of the room. He could not make up his mind the entire time.
However, no matter how he thought about it, the battle for the Heaven Ranking was about to begin and he had to inform everyone in the room regardless.
At that thought, Yun Ting knocked gently on the door.
The door was not locked and he only knocked a few times before a crack appeared.
Yun Ting took a deep breath and pushed the door open.
There were four people in the room, three women and a man. They were Book Immortal Yun Zhu, Painting Immortal Mo Qing, Chess Immortal Jun Yu and Su Zimo.
The four of them gathered together. Yun Zhu, Mo Qing and Su Zimo stared at a chess game while Mo Qing looked at Su Zimo in a daze.
This scene had completely exceeded Yun Ting"s expectations.
He was dumbfounded and looked at everything in disbelief. Stunned on the spot, his mind was a little blurry and he could not react for a moment.
When they sensed the activity at the entrance, Su Zimo and the three fairies snapped out of their stupor.
The purple flames in Su Zimo"s eyes faded gradually and eventually vanished.
Even with the capabilities of the Martial Dao Prime Body, he could not resolve the ninth Ling Long Zugzw.a.n.g within a short period of time. He could only memorize the situation of the zugzw.a.n.g and deduce it slowly after he returned.
When Mo Qing saw that Su Zimo"s eyes had returned to normal, she retracted her gaze and lowered her head slightly in deep thought.
Jun Yu put away the Astral Chessboard as well as the black and white chess pieces.
Yun Zhu turned to look at Yun Ting at the entrance and asked, "Little brother, what are you doing here?"
"I…"
Yun Ting was speechless and did not know what to say.
Jun Yu said indifferently, "Three days have pa.s.sed. The battle for the Heaven Ranking will officially begin today. He must be here to inform us of that."
"Y-Yes!"
Yun Ting nodded instinctively.
Thereafter, he was still worried and could not help but ask, "Sister, what were the four of you… hmm, doing here?"
"The two of them were playing chess while I was observing from the side with Sister Mo Qing."
Yun Zhu replied casually.
Yun Ting took a few deep breaths and tried his best to compose himself. He asked with difficulty, "The four of you spent three days and nights surrounding a chessboard in this room?"
Yun Zhu nodded. "More or less."
Yun Ting rolled his eyes.
When Yun Zhu saw Yun Ting"s strange expression, she frowned slightly and asked, "What else do you think we were doing?"
"It"s not just me!"
Yun Ting pointed outside the door and said bitterly, "You guys hid here in seclusion. Do you have any idea how many rumors are spreading outside?!"
"Rumors stop at wise men."
Jun Yu"s expression was calm and nonchalant.
"The innocent are self-righteous."
Mo Qing"s tone was indifferent.
Because of Meng Yao"s slander at the Immortal Sect Selection, there had been many rumors about her over the years and she could not be bothered.
"Is that so?"
Yun Zhu smiled gently. "I"m curious what rumors they are spreading."
Yun Zhu was even more relaxed.
Yun Ting had a helpless expression.
His gaze s.h.i.+fted to Su Zimo who was silent at the side. His hunger that had just subsided rose again as he shouted, "Su Zimo!"
"Mmm?"
Su Zimo was recalling the previous eight Ling Long Zugzw.a.n.gs when he heard Yun Ting"s shout and jolted awake.
He looked at the enraged Yun Ting and was puzzled, not knowing why the young prince was angry.
"Fellow Daoist Yun Ting, what can I do for you?"
Su Zimo asked.
"You…"
Yun Ting hesitated.
He wanted to reprimand Su Zimo but suddenly realized that he could not say anything.
Su Zimo merely watched over the three great fairies and played chess for three days and nights—what was wrong with that?
Yun Ting thought for a long time but could not come up with anything. He could only glare at Su Zimo angrily and scold, "You"re an animal!"
With that said, Yun Ting turned to leave.
Su Zimo was utterly confused and did not know why he was scolded by Yun Ting.
Yun Zhu said, "Who knows what"s wrong with him again. Zimo, don"t bother."
"Let"s go, the battle for the Heaven Ranking is about to begin."
Jun Yu said.
The three fairies stood up and headed to the Divine Firmament Hall with Su Zimo.
…
Divine Firmament Hall.
In less than three days, the ruins caused by the battle between the Perfected Immortals had already returned to normal.
Millions of cultivators were gathered here in a dense crowd.
Almost all the cultivators of the four Immortal Kingdoms and three immortal sects were present as well.
Only a few people had yet to arrive at the hall.
"The Chess Immortal, Book Immortal and Painting Immortal have yet to arrive?"
"You don"t know yet?"
Another cultivator said, "Three days ago, after the Perfected Immortal battle ended, the three fairies and Su Zimo gathered together."
"Huh? For real now?"
"It"s absolutely true! Someone witnessed it personally!"
The person said with a delighted expression, "Furthermore, the three fairies stayed in the same room as Su Zimo for an entire three days and nights without leaving!"
"Heavens! Could the four of them have been…"
Many cultivators" eyes lit up.
"Is there even a need to think? If it was you and I guarding the three fairies for three days and nights, would we still be able to sit there idly?" Another person said.
"To think that although the three fairies look unattainable, they would end up getting together with a Heaven Immortal of the academy."
"What"s so good about Su Zimo? He"s just someone who ascended from the lower worlds and can"t compare to others in terms of cultivation realm as well. The three fairies are truly blind!"
"Hehe!"
A cultivator with a sleazy expression gave a strange laugh. "Su Zimo must be outstanding in some way. Three days and nights, tsk tsk."
Flying Immortal Sect and Zither Immortal Meng Yao were secretly delighted when they heard the discussions in the crowd.
Of the four great fairies, three of them were now rumored to be involved with someone and were no longer unattainable.
Her status would definitely rise once more and surpa.s.s the other three fairies!
"In that case, Zither Immortal Meng Yao is probably the only one who can truly be described as pure and divinely among the four great fairies." A cultivator sighed.
"Of course not."
Another person whispered, "Let me tell you, Zither Immortal Meng Yao is also involved with Su Zimo like the three fairies!"
"Huh? For real?"
"Of course! Otherwise, why would Fairy Meng Yao suddenly attack Su Zimo this time round and cause the three fairies to step in?"
"That"s right. Since she couldn"t get her hands on Su Zimo, she decided to destroy him instead! The Zither Immortal"s love turned into hatred in a twist of fate!"
At that point, Meng Yao was so angry that she trembled with a livid expression!
