475: Chapter 475 Speaking Up for Justice

[Your heart stirred—as expected, this woman was not simple.]

[Afterward, you chatted for a while longer.]

[The more you talked, the more you realized that Fairy Xi He before you was not simple.]

[Furthermore, you actually could not see through her strength.]

[There were two possibilities for this—either her strength was not lower than yours, or she was using some special secret technique for concealment.]

[After sitting for a while longer, you and the two siblings of the Yu family took your leave.]

[After you disappeared, the madam appeared from nowhere, walked to Fairy Xi He's side, and bowed slightly:]

["Young Miss, why are you so concerned about these three?"]

[Fairy Xi He smiled:]

["These three are interesting!"]

[She paused:]

["Especially this one named Qin; even I can't see through his strength."]

[The madam was stunned for a moment:]

["Yo... Young Miss, how is that possible? Even you can't see through him? Then isn't he...?"]

[She hesitated for a moment and lowered her voice:]

["Should we report this to the Sect?"]

[Fairy Xi He waved her hand:]

["No need. If he really entered after making a great dao oath, he poses no threat to the Sect. Just pull him into the Lu family."]

["This old servant understands!" The madam nodded.]

[After a short pause, she asked again:]

["What about the other two, Young Miss? Have you discerned their origins?"]

[Fairy Xi He looked at the teacup in her hand:]

["Their cultivation is also concealed by a secret technique. As for where they come from..."]

[She looked up:]

["They're from the Elf Race."]

[The madam's expression changed slightly:]

["The Elf Race? Aren't they..."]

[Fairy Xi He interrupted her:]

["Keep this matter to yourself. Also, give word to the deacon in charge of recruitment for this area next year to let these three pass."]

[The madam bowed:]

["Yes!"]

[Having finished, she withdrew.]

[The pavilion fell silent.]

[Fairy Xi He sat there, her Face devoid of any expression.]

[Then her figure gradually faded, finally dissipating completely as if she had never appeared.]

[On the other side.]

[You returned to the Tianxing Tower and entered your respective rooms.]

[After pushing open the door, a person was sitting in the living room—the man from the Fairy Maiden Tower who had recited the doggerel.]

[You had long known he was waiting in the room. With an expressionless Face, you walked to the side and sat down:]

["Looking for me?"]

[The man didn't stand on ceremony and spoke directly:]

["Little brother, did you go to the Fairy Maiden Tower with the same idea as me?"]

["What idea?"]

["I'll be blunt. For the Immortal Sect assessment, bring me along. Once it's done, I will reward you handsomely."]

[You looked at him without responding.]

[He waited for two seconds, and seeing that you didn't speak, he added:]

["You definitely have a way in."]

[You smiled slightly:]

["What makes you think I can enter the Immortal Sect?"]

[The man leaned forward:]

["I've made inquiries. This city district is managed by the Lu family, and the Fairy Maiden Tower is a property of the Lu family. You went there just to have the courtesan help you connect with the Lu family, didn't you?"]

[You nodded:]

["So you bought a poem, wanting to get to know the courtesan and then seek refuge with the Lu family?"]

["Correct."]

[You looked at him and suddenly asked:]

["What is your name?"]

[The man straightened his back:]

["Chen Biao."]

[You were stunned for a moment.]

[Chen Biao?]

[You stared at the scar on his Face, and a thought flashed through your mind—over seventy years later, on the Heavenly Palace mining star, a miner named Chen Biao was smashed against a wall by your punch.]

[You guessed right.]

[It was him.]

[The same Chen Biao who was beaten by you on the mining star over seventy years later.]

[Only this time, because you appeared at the Fairy Maiden Tower, he didn't follow that old path.]

[He was a Loose Cultivator.]

[He came to Wuji Immortal City to Breakthrough to Soul Transformation and to be able to move upward in the future.]

[He spent a lot of effort inquiring about the backgrounds of the forces in the city and finally set his sights on the Fairy Maiden Tower—the Lu family's property.]

[The Lu family was part of the high-level management of the Wuji Immortal Sect and managed this city district.]

[If he wanted to establish this connection, he had to find someone to introduce him.]

[But the people of the Lu family did not live in the Immortal City, and he couldn't find a way—the family members of the dozens of high-level officials of the Wuji Immortal Sect did not live in this Immortal City.]

[As for where they lived, no one knew.]

[The only way was to come to the Fairy Maiden Tower, get to know the courtesan, and have her help pass along a word.]

[So he bought that poem, intending to make an appearance during the ranking competition.]

[The original result was—he lost the ranking competition to Ximen Huan and was even mocked by him.]

[If you hadn't appeared—after being humiliated by Ximen Huan, he would have killed Ximen Huan in a fit of rage and then fled.]

[That escape lasted for decades.]

[Because he lacked Cultivation resources, he robbed a merchant guild on the remote Star Continent.]

[Unluckily, that merchant guild was a property of the Heavenly Palace.]

[Even more unluckily, after the robbery, he went into seclusion to Breakthrough to Soul Transformation, and the aura of the Breakthrough attracted the people of the Heavenly Palace.]

[He was then captured and thrown onto a mining star to become a miner.]

[This time, he sat here, eagerly waiting for you to lead him into the Sect.]

[Looking at him, you suddenly felt like laughing.]

["Alright, I'll try my best."]

[Chen Biao immediately stood up and looked at you with an excited Face:]

["Brother, how generous!"]

[After saying that, he thanked you repeatedly.]

[Unable to stand his enthusiasm, you directly started ushering him out.]

[He wasn't annoyed and left excitedly.]

[The Rising Sun.]

[In the hall of the Tianxing Tower, a few tables of guests were sitting sparsely.]

[A group of people suddenly surged in through the door, led by a Young Master in fine clothing—Ximen Huan.]

[He stood in the center of the hall, looked up, and shouted toward the upper floor:]

["You named Qin! Get out here!"]

[His voice was quite loud, and the guests at several tables turned to look.]

["Don't hide, or don't blame this Young Master for being impolite."]

[Upstairs, you pushed open your room door, walked to the railing, and glanced down.]

[It was Ximen Huan, and behind him followed two middle-aged men with expressionless Faces.]

[You walked down the stairs and stood before him, your gaze calm:]

["You want to cause trouble here?"]

[Ximen Huan stared at you, his lip twitching slightly:]

["You named Qin, you made me lose Face yesterday. How are we going to settle this?"]

[Just as he finished speaking, a coarse voice came from the entrance:]

["You brat, you dare to bully my little brother? Do you want to die?"]

[Everyone turned their heads.]

[Chen Biao strode in, his Face full of rough flesh, the scar especially prominent in the morning light.]

[He walked up to you, stood there like a pillar, blocking you behind him, and turned his head to whisper:]

["Don't be afraid, little brother. With me here, he won't dare touch you."]

[You smiled and said nothing.]

[You roughly guessed why the previous Chen Biao hadn't managed to get into the Wuji Immortal Sect.]

[Ximen Huan was stunned when he saw Chen Biao:]

["You? Why are you with him?"]

[Chen Biao crossed his arms and raised his chin:]

["Because I want to. Is it any of your business?"]

[As his words landed—]

[Boom!]

[A Late Nascent Soul Stage pressure erupted from his body.]

[The air in the entire hall seemed to be squeezed tightly.]

[The Faces of several guests with low cultivation turned pale, and the chopsticks in their hands dropped.]
