Chapter 1543 – 1543 Don’t Agree, But Admire

1543 Don’t Agree, But Admire

The moment the carriage stopped on the road outside the castle, the staff outside opened the carriage door for

Jing Jiaren and she heard this announcement.

When Jing Jiaren raised her head and looked past the staff at the entrance of the door, she saw the beautiful Yu

Huang, who was holding the arm of an extraordinarily handsome long-haired man and walking towards the

entrance of the auction venue.

As Jing Jiaren stared at the unfamiliar man’s face, she thought to herself, Could this be the demon fox Mo Xiao? Yu

Huang’s Godfather?

Auntie Qiang, who was traveling with her, said in a low voice, “The man beside Yu Huang is the patriarch of the

nine-tailed fox clan, Prime Emperor Mo Xiao.”

Nodding, Jing Jiaren prepared to get out of the car.

The staff reached out his right hand to Jing Jiaren to help her out of the car.

Jing Jiaren thanked him, but avoided the staff’s hand. After she took off the cane pendant hanging on her waist and

extended it towards the ground, the pendant immediately enlarged and turned into a completely black cane. Jing

Jiaren used the cane as support to get off the carriage.

Auntie Qiang followed closely behind her with the invitation.

There was a long staircase outside the auction hall. On it, there was a maple-yellow carpet that led straight to the

door of the auction hall.

In the Divination Continent, maple leaf yellow symbolized nobility and extraordinariness. Usually, large-scale events

would have carpets of this color to welcome guests. Yu Huang was walking up the stairs when she heard an

announcement behind her. “Green Senna Auction welcomes Grand Master Jing Jiaren.”

Upon hearing this, Yu Huang stopped in her tracks. After she turned around and looked at the door, she saw Jing

Jiaren walking into the castle with a black cane with a golden ball in it and accompanied by an unfamiliar old lady.

Tonight, Jing Jiaren was wearing a gradient purple-black waist-length dress. Her makeup added a mysterious and

cold aura to her. When she appeared in the castle with a cane in her hand, she gave off a noble and cold aura,

making people dare not to approach her.

As if sensing Yu Huang’s gaze, Jing Jiaren raised her head and nodded at her.

Although Jing Jiaren was dressed up and had heavy makeup on tonight, as a Purifying Spirit Master, Yu Huang

noticed that the spiritual energy fluctuations in Jing Jiaren’s body were abnormal, like a dying rose had been

inserted into a vase again and barely recovered a little.

However, this rose still couldn’t escape the fate of withering.

Yu Huang frowned slightly and turned to ask Mo Xiao, “Jing Jiaren is injured?”

Mo Xiao told her, “Back then, she took the initiative to withdraw from the competition and made Old Madam Jing

unhappy. Then, because she contradicted Old Madam Jing in front of so many people after failing at the Face the

Divine Masters, in a fit of anger, Old Madam Jing punished her with enduring ten days of ice lake torture. After that

torture, Jing Jiaren was injured and has been recuperating for the past six months.”

This was the first time Yu Huang had heard of a punishment like ice lake torture. She didn’t know what kind of cruel

punishment ice lake torture was, so she asked Mo Xiao, “Is ice lake torture very cruel? What kind of torture is it?”

Mo Xiao’s answer was concise, but it made her shudder. “The ice lake torture uses an array formation to suppress

the cultivation level of the person being punished to the Master Realm and only let them retain enough spiritual

energy to survive. Then, the ice will cleanse the limbs and bones of the person being punished. During the process

of the ice water washing the bones, the punished person’s spiritual energy will be weakened bit by bit until one’s

bones are severely crippled and he can no longer circulate one’s spiritual energy. One will completely endure the

pain of the ice cleansing with one’s mortal body.”

“If one can survive, one can be exonerated. If one can’t, one will die.”

Upon hearing this, Yu Huang felt a chill down her spine.

She rubbed the goosebumps on her arms and frowned slightly. Then, she shook her head and said with a sigh,

“She’s Old Madam Jing’s biological granddaughter. How can Old Madam Jing bear to do that to her?”

“It’s just a warning to the others.” Old Madam Jing wanted to punish Jing Jiaren and use her punishment to

intimidate others with ulterior motives.

Her move indeed mentioned the effect of killing the chicken to warn the monkeys.

When their enemies found out that Old Madam Jing was so ruthless that she even punished the genius

granddaughter she had personally nurtured, they gained an understanding about Old Madam Jing’s cruel nature.

Those who originally hated Old Madam Jing and fantasized about dragging her down from the position of the top

leader of the clairvoyant association also dismissed the idea.

“However, to treat her only granddaughter as a tool, Old Madam Jing is indeed ruthless. No wonder she’s able to

control the Jing family despite being an outsider disciple adopted by the Jing family.” Mo Xiao lamented with

admiration and aversion, “How can she sit firmly on the throne without sufficiently ruthless means? Although Old

Madam Jing is a woman, she is indeed impressive.”

There had never been anything entirely black or white in this world. Mo Xiao was willing to sacrifice his life to

protect the Holy Spirit Continent, but he was able to kill his father without batting an eye. Although Old Madam Jing

was ruthless, every decision she made was for the sake of the Jing family.

Therefore, although Mo Xiao didn’t agree with Old Madam Jing’s actions, he admired her iron-blooded methods.

After knowing what happened to Jing Jiaren, Yu Huang couldn’t help but pity her.

However, Yu Huang also knew that a proud person like Jing Jiaren didn’t need sympathy or pity from others.

“By the way.” At the mention of Old Madam Jing, Mo Xiao suddenly remembered what Prime Emperor Si Cheng had

told him before the unicorn clan encountered a disaster. Mo Xiao told Yu Huang, “Si Cheng asked me to tell you

something. Because you’ve been in seclusion, I almost forgot about this.”

“Huh? Second Uncle?” Although Si Cheng was Prime Emperor Taixu’s disciple and according to the seniority of the

sect, Si Cheng should call Yu Huang Little Aunt-Master, Yu Huang had always called Si Cheng Second Uncle

according to their previous relationship.

Yu Huang had the same attitude towards Mo Xiao.

“Yes.” Mo Xiao moved closer to Yu Huang’s ear and whispered, “He told me that the accidental death of the Jing

family’s old patriarch might have had something to do with Old Madam Jing. He asked you to be careful when you

interact with Old Madam Jing.”

“A person who can ruthlessly disregard her granddaughter’s life and kill her husband in order to gain power is like a

devil. You have to be especially careful.”

Upon hearing this, Yu Huang, who already had a bad impression of Old Madam Jing, became even more vigilant.

“Got it.”

As the two of them whispered to each other, Jing Jiaren had already arrived behind them.

“Yu Huang, long time no see. Congratulations on successfully passing the Face the Divine Masters test and obtaining

the divination power inheritance.” As her strongest competitor, Jing Jiaren’s current response was magnanimous

and pleasant.
