The Divine Nine-Dragon Cauldron

Chapter 2052 1,945. Everyone Was Doubtful

How could his actions be described as ‘victory and defeat are common occurrences in war’?

What was even more laughable was that he kept saying that they shouldn’t be bothered about it, or else they would never be able to achieve anything.

If it was him who was almost killed by someone, how about saying such words again?

However, their master didn’t say anything. As disciples, they didn’t dare to challenge Dao Master skywing face to face.

“Master, I’ve caused you trouble.”Luoshen said in a low voice.

The Heavenly Wing Daoist master’s white robes were as white as snow. He said indifferently, “There’s nothing much about trouble. However, after you go down, you need to think about your own shortcomings and correct them in the future.”

Why did he say that? Luoshen didn’t quite understand what her master meant.

Her performance should have been very favorable to her master. She had almost killed everyone. It was only because of Ou ye Huanyun’s betrayal that there was a subtle deviation.

But, this shouldn’t be a problem, right?

While he was thinking, the Crippled Heaven Dao master said, “This is the end of the Yellow Dao conference. Now, I will make a ranking based on the tokens of good fortune that you have received.”

Luo Shen was excited just now.

Now that Yanchen had died, she was the one who had received the most tokens of good fortune among the four regions’prodigies.

The first place was well deserved!

“I will only announce the top ten,”the Crippled Heaven Dao master said.

Only the top ten had the right to pick Bodhi fruits, and they also had the right to enter the upper hall of the Yellow Dao Palace.

“The tenth place, Heaven’s wrath sword, seven good fortune tokens!”

“The ninth place, Zhou qilin, eight tokens!”

“The eighth place, Feng Liyang, ten tokens!”

..

“The fourth place, wine-meat Buddha, fifteen tokens!”

Oh? The Heaven’s chosen who returned were astonished.

“Buddha of wine and meat is only ranked fourth? That’s impossible!”

Among the people in front of him, Buddha of wine and meat obtained the token of creation only second to Luoshen and the Fey thearch.

The Fey thearch was slightly surprised as well. She snorted lightly. “There are still hidden experts among us. I’d like to see who is better than Buddha of wine and meat.”

The only explanation for such a strange ranking was that someone had obtained the token of creation but was trying to hide it instead of revealing it as a star.

The geniuses in the Daoist Yellow Hall had always been crouching tigers and hidden dragons. There was a high possibility that there was a hidden monstrous genius.

Who knew that the moment the monster Emperor finished speaking, he heard, “Third place... Monster Emperor, seventeen.”

“How is this possible?”The expression on the monster emperor’s face was stiff as disbelief appeared in his eyes.

The surrounding geniuses were once again in an uproar.

“The Monster Emperor is only third place? There must be a mistake, right?”

Could it be that that black horse could even suppress a fey thearch?

Luoshen’s expression was calm, unperturbed by any changes.

With the token of destiny that she had obtained, no matter how strong that Black Horse was, it would not be stronger than her..

“Second place, Luoshen, twenty.”

What? Luoshen’s face stiffened as she was extremely shocked.

That black horse could even suppress her!

Impossible!

It was absolutely impossible!

Unless dust rose from the dead, but that possibility was almost zero!

The crowd was also in an uproar.

“How could this be? There’s actually an overwhelming prodigy in our Daoist Huang Hall that surpasses the three of them? That shouldn’t be!”

“We’ll know very soon who the first place goes to.”

The people present were filled with unprecedented anticipation. The rankings that were originally without any suspense now had such huge twists and turns. It really made their hearts itch.

“First place, Su! Yu!”

The indifferent voice of the Heaven Crippling Dao master spread to every corner of the place.

Everyone who heard it was stunned on the spot.

Su Yu... wasn’t he already dead?

Ou Ye Huanyun had personally said that Su Yu was abandoned on the island by Luo Shen for revenge, causing Su Yu to die in the mouth of an evil creature.

How could he still participate in the ranking?

Luo Shen’s heart was greatly shaken as she blurted out, “Even a dead person can participate in the ranking?”

As the sound of her voice faded, Su Yu’s faint voice could be heard from not too far away, “Who are you calling a dead person?”

Everyone looked towards the source of the voice and saw a silver-haired handsome young man walking out from the resting hall with his hands behind his back.

That face, if it wasn’t Su Yu, who else could it be?

Luoshen felt as though she had seen a ghost. Her pupils shrunk into a needle as she exclaimed in shock, “You... how can you still be alive?”

Su Yu’s expression was indifferent. “I’ve disappointed you.”

His eyes were cold and there were traces of coldness in them.

Su Yu still remembered the viciousness of this woman.

This debt would not be easily forgotten.

Luo Shen immediately hid her shocked expression and forced herself to remain calm.

Ou Ye Huanyun was stunned for a long time before he pounced forward in joy. He grabbed Su Yu’s shoulder and shook it non-stop. “You’re not dead! You’re actually not dead?”

Su Yu smiled lightly. “I’m lucky. It’s not easy to kill me.”

Chen Zerun and the others were in disbelief.

They clearly saw that Su Yu was covered by the purple evil tide. How could he be safe?

However, the mystery of Su Yu’s survival was no longer important. What was important was how he got first place?

“There’s something wrong with the ranking, right? No matter how you look at it, it’s impossible for Su Yu to get first place!”

“Could there be something fishy going on?”

“It’s possible! How could someone from an alien civilization like Su Yu have such a high cultivation level? The only explanation is that he had the help of an expert. The Crippled Heavenly Dao master is about to pass away, but on the surface, he doesn’t have a single disciple. It really doesn’t make sense.”

“There’s definitely something fishy going on! Everyone’s ranking comes with a number of destiny tokens, but Su Yu didn’t announce anything!”

“Isn’t this kind of cover-up a little too arrogant? Does he still look down on the rest of us?”

“When did the ecliptic convention become such an unfair competition?”

The crowd was furious. They had already blamed Su Yu for cheating.

They could accept it if someone else got first place.

But what was Su Yu?

A genius from another civilization, why was he above them?

Luoshen stared at Su Yu suspiciously. She also couldn’t believe that Su Yu could become first place.

One had to know that Su Yu was trapped on that island. There were no ships available, so it was impossible for him to go to the other islands to search for the good fortune tokens.

After pondering for a moment, Luoshen cupped her fists and said, “Supreme-being! Why Don’t you announce the number of good fortune tokens Su Yu has?”

The Crippled Heavenly Dao master was silent.

Half a month ago, Su Yu was the first to return alone and handed in a total of 400 tokens of creation.

The number of tokens of creation was twice as many as the others combined. It was truly too shocking.

Therefore, the few Dao Masters discussed and decided to hide the number of tokens of creation that Su Yu had obtained and not announce it to the public for the time being in order to avoid agitating the other participants.

However, they did not expect that they would have doubts because of this.

The Heaven Crippling Dao Master looked at luoshen and said indifferently, “The Dao Masters are here and they will definitely not cheat. You Don’t have to worry about this. Su Yu is worthy of being number one. There is no doubt about it.”

However, these words were obviously difficult to convince the public.

Although the wine meat Buddha and the monster emperor did not say anything, their expressions revealed deep dissatisfaction.

Luoshen’s expression was calm. She was already certain that the heaven crippling dao master protecting Su Yu was most likely the truth.

How could she let someone else take first place so easily?

“I implore Dao master to announce the truth and give us an explanation.”Her eyes shone with determination.

The other participants also revealed dissatisfaction. The Yellow Dao convention had to be fair and transparent. Otherwise, who would participate in the future?

Publicly shielding cheaters. Such a scandal should not appear in the Yellow Dao conference.

Seeing that they were all asking for specific numbers to be disclosed, the crippled Heavenly Dao master and the other four Holy Dao Masters looked at each other and exchanged glances.

“Alright, since you insist, then as you wish.”The Crippled Heavenly Dao master nodded slowly and said, “The number of good fortune tokens Su Yu obtained is 407?”

As soon as he said this, everyone was stunned.

“How many? 407? Are you sure it’s not 47?”

“You must be mistaken. Where did you get so many tokens of creation? Even the northern region’s Yanchen only got more than 50.”

“What kind of result is this? Isn’t this too exaggerated?”

“Humph! Indeed, it’s a cover-up!”Someone laughed in anger. “The conference of the Yellow Dao doesn’t even put us in their eyes! They actually compiled such a ridiculous number!”

If it was 47, they would just grit their teeth and accept it.

But 407 was more than the total number of people present. Was it possible?

Seeing that what they said was getting worse and worse, the Crippled Heavenly Dao master did not say a word. He took out more than 400 tokens of creation and placed them in front of them one by one.

However, this action did not appease the indignation in their hearts.

“What does this mean? If the hall of the ecliptic sect is determined to be partial, would it be difficult for them to personally get some tokens of creation?”

“The Daoist Huang Dao Convention is no longer worthy of its name. When I return to my own civilization, I will definitely instruct the people of my civilization not to participate in the Daoist Huang Dao Convention again. After a hundred years of hard work, I will not be able to defeat a cheater in the end!”

Upon hearing this, the eyes of the Crippled Heavenly Dao master finally turned cold.

An invisible aura was released, immediately suppressing the disciples present until they could not breathe.

They found it difficult to breathe, and their expressions changed drastically as they shut their mouths.

Only now did they remember that the person in front of them was a dao master!

“The prestige of the Daoist Huang Hall can not be humiliated! Without any evidence, slandering the Daoist Huang Hall out of thin air can be severely punished by the law!”His cold gaze swept across everyone present.

There was no lack of contempt and disdain in his eyes.

If they could not do something, they would judge others based on themselves. They felt that others could not do it as well. They would use their dark hearts to guess whether the other party was cheating or not.

Even if the evidence was present, they would not believe it.

What future could such a person have?

There was a reason why he did not choose the successor of the Daoist master. This was because there was not a single person from the Daoist Huang Hall who could catch his eye.

Even the four chosen ones were the same!

Therefore, he would rather have a lack than a lack, and until today, there was no successor.

His stern words shocked everyone present. They did not dare to utter a single word and kept quiet.

However, the thoughts in their hearts could be seen from the pairs of angry eyes.

“I know that you are not convinced and do not believe it. When we pick the Bodhi fruit later, the truth will be clear at a glance.”

Hearing that, everyone’s eyes lit up slightly.

It was not that easy to pick the Bodhi fruit in the end.

The number of Bodhi Fruits was different each time. It would be fine if there were ten more, but if there were less than ten, then they would have to compete with each other.

In the competition, Su Yu’s ability could be completely seen.

If he wanted to get so many good fortune tokens, his strength shouldn’t be too bad, right?

Thinking of this, many people cast malicious gazes at him, including the Monster Emperor and the wine, meat, and Buddha.

Luoshen glanced at Su Yu indifferently and smoothed her hair. “Okay, let’s compete when we pick the Bodhi fruit.”
