Who Brought Him into Chapter 343 - 285: The Power of the Wild Rankings

Chapter 343: Chapter 285: The Power of the Wild Rankings

"Have you ever thought about what you could have done to offend the other party?"

Han Yu asked curiously. You Li, a cultivator from the East Sea Realm, shouldn’t logically have had any chance to cross paths with Bai Xiangdong.

Unless they t, and Bai Xiangdong did sothing foolish like Huangfu Liang.

Bai Xiangdong dragged himself up to sit and shook his head repeatedly, emphatically denying it.

"That’s impossible. I’ve never set foot in the East Sea, and I’ve never lingered in the East Sea Realm. I went straight to Nanling City."

Moreover, he only stayed in Nanling City for one day and remained indoors, hiding in his room to cultivate.

The events that occurred when the board was revealed in the White Emperor City are still vivid in his mind. As a tool, he wouldn’t dare to show himself and court disaster.

No matter how cautious he was, he still ran into a dangerous woman with thick eyebrows and big eyes while taking a walk to get so air.

Thinking of this, he sighed repeatedly. He wouldn’t dare to enter Nanling City no matter what.

Especially before he had the ans to protect his kidneys, he wouldn’t go even if he were beaten to death.

"You guys... except for Han Yu, you should be careful! I suspect the other party specifically targets promising young cultivators in the Divine Gaze Realm. This person must be extrely twisted, with a particular liking for ruining people’s kidneys."

Bai Xiangdong said through gritted teeth.

If soone heard that, you might end up with another stab after your kidney heals.

Han Yu listened to these words and muttered to himself.

Bai Xiangdong probably wasn’t keen on people expressing concerns about his kidneys, so soon after, Han Yu left with his cousin.

"Do you think we might be in danger?"

His cousin spoke up with so concern, especially after Bai Xiangdong gave them that warning.

Reckoning, both he and his cousin were quite promising too!

"Don’t worry, your kidneys are absolutely safe."

Han Yu assured confidently, pulling his cousin aside as they had walked a fair distance before whispering a few words to him.

His cousin’s expression rapidly changed from odd to stunned, making for a truly entertaining sight.

"Are you saying this was done by You Li?"

"Oh! We didn’t know You Li liked stabbing kidneys."

With a smile on his face, Han Yu thought, there are so many things you don’t know. Not only does she enjoy stabbing kidneys, but she also excels at it, specializing in speed and precision!

Back then, Ji Wushi, one of the Four Gentlen of the Evil Path, ended up with both his kidneys destroyed by her magic sword because he injured her stone.

The stone, the Dragon Blood Stone, brought back mories of how Ling Wuce borrowed the stone from him.

He wasn’t sure if she’d used it, but if they encountered her, it would be best to remind her to wait for the Inspectorate’s results before using it.

"Can the token help find her?"

Han Yu turned to ask his cousin, who said he tried it when they passed by but had no response.

There’s nothing to be done then. In the world of cultivators, either you just happen to et, or after parting, who knows when you’ll et again.

Luckily, it wasn’t a problem. They knew she was in the city, so finding her shouldn’t be hard.

Besides, Han Yu was eager to enter the city too. Let’s not forget there was still a big gift pack from Quan Xiaotong waiting for him.

Whatever the other party intends, it can’t hurt to pick up the gift pack first.

"Are we just leaving Bai Xiangdong here? Not taking him with us?"

His cousin hesitated for a mont. Without him on the Celestial Pride List, who else would reveal the rankings?

"Unless you plan to et You Li and have her shatter this guy’s already injured kidneys."

Han Yu teased.

As for the ranking issue, judging by Ling Wuce’s attitude, letting Bai Xiangdong co to the East Sea was likely more about giving the Dragon and Phoenix Palace a way out.

Otherwise, they might as well have handed it straight to Nanli Sword Studio.

In terms of influence, even though the gap among the Nine Sects’ upper, middle, and lower tiers wasn’t horribly wide, the general perception among cultivators was that the Upper Three Sects were stronger than the Middle Three Sects.

In terms of cooperation, the Dragon and Phoenix Palace’s perfunctory manner had already sparked dissatisfaction within the Imperial Court.

-----------------

With Nanling City situated south and near the sea, it’s rare to see so many cultivators gathering there.

"This ti, Nanli Sword Studio indeed did better than the Dragon and Phoenix Palace."

Once inside the city, a group of people looked around as if they were on a sightseeing tour.

The cousins occasionally saw Nanli cultivators entering the city from the mountain, and the Guardian Bureau seed to have put in so effort, as the Palace Guards here were evidently more nurous than before.

Han Yu originally thought that this ti the rankings would be a bit quieter, considering a bomb had already exploded in White Emperor City a month ago, even though the casualties were minimal, the impact was not small.

This group of people surprisingly wasn’t scared, and instead their numbers had actually increased.

Ordinary folks and Yi Xian and Coconut found everything novel wherever they looked. When the first rankings were released, the three of them were still lost in the Southern Border, not catching up with the excitent.

"In our place, there weren’t these silly rankings. If you wanted fa, you just went straight at it upon eting soone."

Ordinary folks said with a teasing smile, "Quite refined, aren’t they?"

The few people glancing at one another, couldn’t help but sigh, acknowledging that it was indeed straightforward and direct.

Coconut stared at the crowd, curiously pulling Yi Xian, "Don’t you think there are more female cultivators here than male ones!"

With Coconut’s reminder, everyone paid attention for a mont and indeed noticed that in the entire city, there were two to three more female cultivators than male ones.

This was quite interesting, as normally female cultivators shouldn’t care as much about fa as male cultivators, right?

"And it doesn’t seem like they’re here for the fun like we are."

Coconut watched as groups of female cultivators marched through the city, giving off the vibe of catching a thief.

She curiously approached to say sothing, but before she could open her mouth, the leading woman pulled her into the group.

"Did you make it to the Hundred Flowers List?"

The woman asked.

Coconut was bewildered by the question and shook her head instinctively.

Upon hearing this, the woman scrutinized Coconut from top to bottom, seemingly satisfied she nodded, "Hmm, indeed a sister, you’ve found your group, co, let’s go settle the score with Bai Xiaosheng, why on earth didn’t he list us on the Hundred Flowers List."

Han Yu and his group sneaked over for a glance and nearly burst out laughing, since out of the seven or eight people in the group, Coconut was the prettiest.

"What’s the Hundred Flowers List?"

Ordinary folks missed the previous excitent, naturally unaware of what the Hundred Flowers List was.

The cousin chuckled beside him and explained the origin of this unofficial ranking.

Upon hearing this, Ordinary folks gasped, "What, is this madman not afraid of death?"

Won, whether female cultivators or female immortals, all love beauty. To set such a ranking, he really is asking for trouble.

"At worst, he finds no soulmate for life, at worst, he offends all the female cultivators in the world."

The cousin expressed disbelief, saying, "Is it really that serious?"

Just then, a young attendant went crying out across the city, "The Hundred Flowers List has been updated for the third ti this month, hurry if you want to buy, it’s first co, first served."

With just a shout, the once empty area around the young attendant was imdiately crowded with female cultivators, and the attendant quickly sold out all the lists he had.

He probably never imagined he could sell things this quickly in his life.

"Damned Bai Xiaosheng, I was just squeezed off the top hundred!"

A rather shrill voice ca, from a beautifully adorned female cultivator dressed in white, but now her whole face was scrunched up, flushed red in anger.

She fell back from the previous team, and the leading woman in Coconut’s team lit up with interest, imdiately stepped forward to invite her to join the group, thus, Coconut gained another sister.

There was still dissatisfaction in the crowd, mostly those whose rankings dropped on the Hundred Flowers List.

"This is the biggest flaw, that guy doesn’t understand won. You see, you put soone up there, and just a few days later you throw them down, who can stand that?"

Ordinary folks sumd up the situation with this remark.

Before long, Coconut also sneaked back with a playful smile.

"I’ve found out, in my group are sisters not on the list, and there are sisters from nearby who are ranked around the nineties, and the eighties..."

In summary, those not on the list wanted to settle a score with Bai Xiangdong, while those on the list felt their ranking was too low and also wanted to settle a score with Bai Xiangdong.

Generally, those ranked above fifty think "Bai Xiaosheng" is not a good person.

Those ranked below fifty unanimously believe "Bai Xiaosheng" is not human.

"Could this be the reason You Li stabbed Bai Xiangdong in the waist?"

The cousin and Han Yu exchanged a look, while Ordinary folks rolled his eyes at the side. This was another thing he knew nothing about.

Once the cousin explained everything clearly to everyone, Ordinary folks finally responded with words full of sympathy.

"Considering You Li’s aggressive thods, he’d better pray that’s not the reason, because if it is, he’s likely to lose sothing important."

Bai Xiangdong, recuperating from his injuries, probably still doesn’t know that though he’s yet to truly show his face in Nanling City, a large group of female cultivators is already preparing to settle the score with him...
