The phoenix-masked woman was instantly furious.
"You! What are you saying! You dare accuse without proof?" the phoenix-masked woman hissed, her voice laced with venomous indignation.
"You, a re newcor, dare to challenge , the first candidate of the goddess?"
Yu Holea’s expression remained composed, her eyes steady as she t the phoenix-masked woman’s furious gaze.
"I speak from intuition and observation," she replied evenly.
"Actions speak louder than words, and yours have not gone unnoticed."
The phoenix-masked woman scoffed, her confidence wavering slightly under Yu Holea’s unwavering gaze.
"Intuition and observation are not proof," she retorted sharply.
"Accusing based on such flimsy grounds shows your ignorance and arrogance."
Yu Holea’s lips curved into a faint smile, a gesture that seed to irk the phoenix-masked woman even more.
"I have no need for arrogance," she replied calmly.
"However what you are saying is indeed reasonable. I can’t accuse you just because of my intuition."
Yu Holea suddenly asked with a smile,
"From your conversation, it is clear that you are the leader, right?"
The phoenix-masked woman felt proud when she heard Yu Holea call her leader and she said arrogantly,
"You can tell that? It ans you are not as dumb as you look but that doesn’t change the fact that you have disrespected . I have to punish you..."
Yu Holea shook her head,
"Since you are the leader, can you tell who si behind that accident?"
The phoenix-masked woman couldn’t help but beco frightened.
Sotis when a person is too calm, even in a situation in which he or she is at a disadvantage, it ans, he or she has so terrifying trump card in their hand!
However, she couldn’t possibly tell Yu Holea the truth, right?
"What accident? "
Yu Holea blinked and was about to say sothing when suddenly a white ball arrived in the grand mansion.
ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
No one noticed its presence until it made a loud noise.
Boom.
Everyone turned to look in the direction from where the voice ca.
By now the white ball had transford into a white screen. It displayed the scene of the phoenix-masked woman and others discussing how to kill Qiao Jun.
Yu Holea blankly stared at the screen for a long ti.
All the candidates were on the other hand stunned.
The phoenix-masked woman instantly beca frightened and said,
"Hey! Soone shut this video right now!"
The atmosphere in the grand mansion was electric with tension as the candidates watched the white screen in stunned silence.
The phoenix-masked woman, her previous arrogance replaced with palpable fear, scrambled to maintain her composure.
Her commands, however, fell on deaf ears as the gravity of the situation sank in for everyone present.
Yu Holea, her face a mask of calm, turned to the phoenix-masked woman. "So, you claim innocence?"
Her voice was steady, betraying none of the turmoil that might have been brewing within.
The phoenix-masked woman, her eyes wide with panic, desperately tried to regain control.
"This is a setup! A fabrication to fra !" She gestured wildly at the screen. "You can’t believe this... this lie!"
The swan-masked woman, standing next to her, looked equally shaken. She whispered in her ears,
"Sister Phoenix, what do we do?"
The phoenix-masked woman gritted her teeth. The rest of the candidates lowered their heads in sha.
It was their first ti, seeing how sinister they looked.
Was this still them?
Were they so...cruel and sinister?
Yu Holea chuckled,
"I don’t care. I have the proof. I swore to my boyfriend, that I would bring justice to him."
The phoenix-masked woman took a deep breath.
Now that Yu Holea already knows the truth, there is no profit in continuing to hide the matte, hence she accepted it outright,
"We were the ones who had planned."
"Just because you consider a threat you attacked my fiance. Did you ever think that my fiance wasn’t at fault at all?" Yu Holea asked calmly.
The phoenix-masked woman stared at Yu Holea and said with a fake calm expression,
"It doesn’t matter. We were only trying to test your capabilities. You failed and your boyfriend had to pay the price.
Not to ntion he is just a boy, you get a more handso boy than him in the goddess city. You should thank that I provoked you so much, otherwise you wouldn’t be able to reach here so quickly."
A test.
Just a boy...
Was he?
Yu Holea closed her eyes.
For a mont she rembered each and every amazing mont she had spent with Qiao Jun.
He took care of her, took revenge on Yu i on her behalf, taught a lesson to the Pei family, endured her tantrums, hugged her every day just so she wouldn’t have any nightmares, and supported her whenever she took a big step, and was there like a family when she felt lonely.
Can he still be called a boy?
No. He was more like a ho or family to her.
The only place where she could turn to when she felt sad, lonely, or felt like crying.
I wish he was just a boy...it wouldn’t hurt so much. If he was only a boy, she wouldn’t feel like dying every single day.
If only he was just a boy, she wouldn’t feel as if everything had beco unreal.
Yu Holea stopped her train of thought. If she continued, she knew she would faint and probably wake up only after 1 month.
Her body had long since reached its limits.
However, Yu Holea didn’t show her pain. She opened her eyes which were much sharper than before and said,
"Capability, right? I failed that ans my capability is not enough, right?"
"Yes!" The phoenix-masked woman lacked confidence but she knew that at this point, she couldn’t back down.
"Okay then make a deal. if you can cure my boyfriend in just 3 days, I will leave this place and never return to the goddess city, I wouldn’t even take revenge on you..."
The phoenix-masked woman’s eyes brightened.
If what Yu Holea was saying was true then won’t the problem end?
"...however, if you fail, I promise none of the 9 people present here, could inherit the powers of goddess. I wouldn’t let any of you succeed and..."
Yu Holea pointed at the phoenix-masked woman and said.
"You, I will destroy you to the point you won’t be able to raise your head. Your entire life will be destroyed by and you regret planning this accident."
The phoenix-masked woman’s face twisted with rage and fear.
She had never encountered soone like Yu Holea, who could face her with such unwavering resolve.
What was even more frightening was...how determined Yu Holea looked.
It was as if she would truly destroy her life.
The phoenix-masked woman’s heart chilled.
"You’re bluffing," she spat. "You think you can just walk in here and make demands? You have no power to enforce your threats."
Yu Holea’s eyes hardened. "I don’t make threats, I make promises."
The tension in the room was palpable as the other candidates watched the exchange.
At the sa ti, they beca worried, about their future.
The swan-masked woman tried to calm down the situation and said with a smile,
"Guys calm down. How about this, Yu Holea we will find a cure for your fiance and find a way to wake him up, and you let god this matter, alright?"
"Do you think I didn’t notice you?" Yu Holea asked with a chuckle.
The swan-masked woman shivered when she felt Yu Holea’s cold gaze and said in a fake calm voice,
"You...what are you saying? I..I was just trying to calm down the situation why are you dragging ?"
Yu Holea shook her head
"You are wrong. I am not dragging you. You all dragged into a fight I never wanted to fight, now bear the consequences."
From her tone, it was clear that she wouldn’t reconcile with anyone, let alone give anyone any face.
The cat-masked woman was irked by her constant threats and said,
"Hey listen! If you make everyone your enemy, you won’t be able to survive. Especially sister phoenix, she can beat you to death and you won’t be able to resist let alone retaliate!"
The phoenix-masked woman realized that the cat-masked woman was indeed telling the truth.
As long as she wants she can easily kill Yu Holea. Especially now when Yu Holea disrespected her!
She looked at Yu Holea arrogantly.
To her surprise, Yu Holea didn’t even look in her direction and chuckled,
"No, she won’t."
Yu Holea’s tone was filled with certainty.
The phoenix-masked woman’s aura turned gloomy but she kept a kind look on her face and said,
"Even though I want to welco you and solve the misunderstanding, I don’t want you to go on the wrong path and gradually turn unrecognizable, hence I will flog you 20 tis and each ti you will have to count your mistake."
