Intentions! (Fourth Update)
Translator: 549690339
Shocked, unprecedented shock!
The attentions of more than a couple of people in the arena all fell upon Yang Zhen who was searching all around, expressions of astonishment flashing across their faces.
Who was Mo Xueling, the heir of Ink Pool Peak?
She was the one with the most potential in the whole of Ink Pool Peak, the jewel in the Peak Master’s palm.
Who was Flower Spirit Girl?
Although she didn’t have a large power backing her, she was able to defy nature and gather the Heavenly Sacred Roots. Her potential even surpassed Mo Xueling’s. If she was willing, she could join major forces like Mo Xueling, Spiritual Studies Palace, or even the Great Sects like Beigu Institute at will.
Truthfully, the two girls had already attracted a lot of attention when they arrived at the Birthday Celebration. However, upon hearing Ning Wuque’s words, everyone suddenly realized what was going on.
A man favored by two spiritual girls was right there, and he was… a goddamn Void Cultivation Stage cook?
Seeing Yang Zhen’s carefree expression, the corners of everyone’s mouths twitched uncontrollably.
Who the hell was Ning Wuque talking about? Did you have any clue?
What were you still looking around for?
Everyone wanted to rush forward, smack Yang Zhen to the ground, and see if they could start a fire or cause a lightning strike by rubbing him.
How on earth did this ordinary-looking man, who was slightly handsome and only at the Void Cultivation Stage, manage to win the favor of two spiritual girls at the same time?
Moreover, he looked like a cook, which was almost impossible.
“Hm?” The Elder Palace Master was surprised when he saw Yang Zhen’s attire and said, “He’s actually a cook from our Spiritual Studies Palace. When did our kitchen produce such a prodigiously talented young man?”
The other Spiritual Studies Palace powerhouses also looked at each other in surprise. Even Palace Master Liu’s face flashed a hint of surprise as he turned to look around.
Not long after, the burly sister Nong Yu, like a timid hamster, quickly came to Palace Master Liu’s side.
After knowing the ins and outs, Palace Master Liu suddenly realized what was happening and laughed, “So it’s like that. I never realized that our Spiritual Studies Palace had such hidden talents. Even within our small kitchen, there’s a young man who has won the favor of two spiritual girls. Someone, bring this young man up on the stage.”
Nong Yu’s eyes widened in shock, standing there trembling, her face full of disbelief as she looked at Yang Zhen, seemingly not understanding what had just happened.
Just as a Spiritual Studies Palace disciple at the Divine Travel Stage was about to descend from the stage and approach Yang Zhen, everyone was shocked.
Was this man really just a cook from the Spiritual Studies Palace?
This…
Everyone was looking at each other, having expressions like they were dreaming, not daring to believe what was happening.
And this guy, who had won the favor of two spiritual girls, was indeed just a mere cook from the Spiritual Studies Palace kitchen. But as everyone could see, even Palace Master Liu was smiling, and Elder Palace Master was even more radiant. In any case, the cook was still one of their people from the Spiritual Studies Palace.
Even a cook from the Spiritual Studies Palace had won the favor of two spiritual girls, one of whom was an heir comparable to the Spiritual Studies Palace from Ink Pool Peak. From any perspective, this was something that would bring honor to the elder generation of the Spiritual Studies Palace who were present.
Seeing someone from the Spiritual Studies Palace coming down, Hu Tao, who was in a daze, was suddenly startled and held onto Yang Zhen, saying, “You… be careful, Ning Wuque must have bad intentions in singling you out.”
Yang Zhen let out a sly laugh, winked at Hu Tao, and said, “I’ll let you in on a secret!”
Hu Tao was stunned and asked suspiciously, “What secret?”
Yang Zhen’s mouth curled into a strange arc and he glanced at the triumphant yet uncertain Ning Wuque:
“Actually… I don’t have good intentions either!”
Hu Tao was baffled, apparently not understanding what Yang Zhen meant.
“Friend Yang, the Palace Master invites you!” The disciple from the Spiritual Studies Palace arrived at Yang Zhen’s side, saying to him with a strange expression.
Yang Zhen nodded, stood up, and said, “Thankyou!”
Upon seeing Yang Zhen actually stand up, everyone was shocked, staring at Yang Zhen in disbelief.
“Yang Dingtian actually dares to stand up, can’t he see that Ning Wuque is targeting him?”
“I don’t know if he’s truly a fool or just pretending to be one, it’s easy to take the stage under these circumstances, but getting off of it isn’t that simple.”
“Well, you never know, Yang Dingtian managed to win the affection of two Spirit Girls at once, he’s not a common person. Not to mention whether he’s playing the fool.”
“Could he really manage to present a gift more valuable than the Half Mountain Map, how is that possible?”
Almost no one had any faith in Yang Zhen, nor could anyone figure out why he had the guts to stand up. In this situation, could he really hope to emerge unscathed, just because of the favor of two Spirit Girls?
Even if he did manage to emerge unscathed, he would lose face. This could potentially even change the way the two Spirit Girls perceive him.
Yes, that must be it!
Ning Wuque had the same thought, he was determined to make Yang Dingtian lose face.
At this moment, Ning Wuque was watching Yang Zhen with a dark and unsettled expression. A playful smile flashed across his face as he looked at Yang Zhen.
In the crowd, there were quite a few people watching the expressions of Hua Youyue and Mo Xueling – to everyone’s surprise, there didn’t seem to be any concern on their faces.
This… this was truly blind trust.
Even the powerful figures of the Tribulation Crossing Period from Ink Pool Peak and Beigu Institute furrowed their brows, looking at the two women in confusion.
The powerhouse from Ink Pool Peak was clearly somewhat dissatisfied with Ning Wuque, but he also had reservations about Mo Xueling. Could he really expect the heir of the great Ink Pool Peak to value a chef at the Void Cultivation Stage so highly?
The Void Cultivation Stage powerhouse of the Beigu Institute was even more uncertain, looking at the two women – not a hint of worry on their faces. He took a close look at Yang Zhen.
At this moment, Mo Xueling suddenly giggled and took Hua Youyue’s hand, whispering, “Do you think that guy will lose face?”
Hua Youyue’s gaze never shifted from Yang Zhen. After hearing these words, she shook her head: “No!”
Mo Xueling looked at Hua Youyue with a speechless expression, and burst out laughing, “You really have blind faith in him. But strangely, I have the same feeling –
if Ning Wuque thinks he can embarrass Yang Zhen, he must really think he’s got a big face!”
Upon hearing the words of the two women, the powerful figures of the Beigu Institute and Ink Pool Peak exchanged looks. Even the Tribulation Crossing Period powerhouses couldn’t help feeling a bit dazed. They obviously had no idea where the two women’s faith in Yang Zhen was coming from.
Those two good-for-nothings, Scoundrel Cat and Vulgar Rooster, had come back without anyone noticing. They were skulking in the crowd, muttering something under their breaths.
On the main stage, Palace Master Liu looked at Yang Zhen with a smile and asked, “Are you Yang Dingtian?”
Yang Zhen nodded with a smile, neither modest nor arrogant. His reply was loud and clear, “Yes, my name is Yang Dingtian.”
“Great spirit!” Palace Master Liu showed a hint of satisfaction on her face. After glancing at Ning Wuque, she said, “Since you managed to get into the kitchen of the Spiritual Studies Palace, you are also one of us. And your ability to win the favor of two Spirit Girls is your own good fortune. You don’t need to be concerned, it doesn’t matter whether you have a gift or not. What matters is your intention. I’ve heard that you invented that hotpot mala tang. Was it for the old Palace Master’s birthday?”
Upon hearing these words, everyone was greatly shocked. They stared at Palace Master Liu in disbelief, then at Ning Wuque, whose complexion had turned ashen.
No one had expected Palace Master Liu to take Yang Zhen’s side like this!
With these words, she had provided a way out for Yang Zhen. Regardless of whether or not he had a gift, he could easily step down without losing face. This was something no one had expected.
After all, Yang Zhen was ‘one of us’. Everyone looked in disbelief at Ning Wuque, whose plan seemed to be going down the drain.
But just at this moment, Yang Zhen suddenly said with a smile, “Of course I have a gift. Unlike certain people, I wouldn’t just bring out some piece of junk and try to pass it off!”
What?
On hearing these words, everyone was dumbfounded.
This Yang Zhen, Palace Master Liu had already given him a dignified way out, but he chose to seek death?
Ning Wuque, whose expression had been fluctuating wildly, saw a glimmer of joy flash in his eyes upon hearing Yang Zhen’s words..
