Chapter 872: A Smile to Bury the Hatchet
“Fairy Yun is really clever! She thought of such a good idea. It’s really admirable!”
“Yes, only a genius like Fairy Yun would come u[p with such a brilliant idea. If it weren’t for Fairy Yun, we would have been trapped here and died already!”
“A genius is a genius. How can ordinary people like us compare to her?! Fairy Yun is the person I admire the most in my life!”
…
Yun Chuqi really couldn’t bear to see these people taking advantage of the situation, she snorted coldly and said, “Back then, who was it that said that Little Jiu was only here to pick spirit herbs? Who forced Little Jiu to kneel to the rune spirit? Who said that Little Jiu’s ideas were all bad ideas? There’s a limit to how shameless a person can be! I remember someone saying that if the Leopard King returns, he will eat dirt. Isn’t it time to fulfill his promise?”
Everyone’s faces turned green and white. People generally wanted their reputations intact and unsullied after all. After being scolded by Yun Chuqi, everyone felt a little embarrassed, especially the man who offered to eat dirt. He wished he could find a hole to hide in.
After Yun Chuqi said that, she gave Yun Chujiu a look. Yun Chujiu nodded her head indiscernibly. She thought to herself, ‘The brothers and sisters of the Yun family are all honest. Only Seventh Sister is this clever. She wants me to use this opportunity to win people’s hearts.’
“Everyone, my Seventh Sister is straightforward and has doted on me since I was young. Don’t mind it she sounded too harsh,” Yun Chujiu said lightly.
The corner of the Yun siblings’ eyes twitched. Doted on you since you were young? Little Jiu, is it really good for you to lie so openly?
Those people were eager to get out of the awkward situation they were in. They immediately fell into her trap and laughed. “Fairy Yun, what Miss Chuqi said makes sense. We were blinded by frustration and said some unnecessary things. We’re really sorry.”
“Yes, Fairy Yun, we are inexperienced. I didn’t expect you to be so powerful. You actually managed to convince the Leopard King. We have wronged you.”
“Exactly that! Fairy Yun, if you don’t vent your anger on us, I will really eat dirt.” The man who said that he would eat dirt had his face turned red as he stammered.
…
Yun Chujiu smiled lightly. “Everyone, don’t be so serious. It’s just some words. I won’t take it to heart. As the saying goes, a smile is enough to bury the hatchet. Let bygones be bygones! Right now, the most important thing is for us to work together to break the barrier. Everyone, stay where you are and rest. Wait for me to test the strength of this barrier before we discuss what to do.”
The crowd did not expect Yun Chujiu to be so magnanimous. They felt even more ashamed and expressed that they would repay her in the future. Yun Chujiu sneered in her heart. Repay? It was already good enough they did not stab her in the back. Some people’s hearts could not be warmed no matter how hard they tried.
However, there were only a few villains who acted according to the wind. From then on, most people treated Yun Chujiu as their savior.
Yun Chujiu waved her hand at the Leopard King. “Little Bun, get out of the way. Let me try something.”
The Leopard King ran to the front of the herd and thought to himself that it would be good to let them see the Little Devil’s strength. Otherwise, they would think that he was a coward that did not dare to fight back after being reduced to such a sorry state. They would know once they saw her capabilities. Fight back? What a joke. If he fought back, he would not only be a leopard but a completely hairless leopard.
Yun Chujiu waved her right hand, and a bolt of heavenly purple lightning struck the barrier. Then, she waved her left hand, and another bolt of heavenly purple lightning struck at the barrier. Then, another, and another.
Everyone was stunned!
