Chapter 40

Watching the Show

After wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Lei Aotian turned around and walked out of the Bestial Battle Arena. He didn’t turn back to look at the Lightning Leopard that was already paralyzed on the ground.

The Lightning Leopard whimpered and wanted to pursue its master, but it only heard Lei Aotian say, “Trash.” It lowered its head dejectedly.

The Lei family hurriedly ran to the center of the arena and carried the Lightning Leopard away to avoid embarrassing themselves.

Kong Rui whistled and the Blazing Flame Eagle obediently returned to her shoulder.

The Li family’s patriarch stood up immediately and shouted, “Good job, Ling’er!”

Although the Li family’s patriarch’s cheer came from the bottom of his heart, it inevitably attracted a disdainful look from the Lei family’s elder.

Only then did the Li Clan’s Patriarch realize that he had lost his composure. He hurriedly coughed and returned to his seat.

But his smile still expressed his joy.

Kong Rui looked at the queen and Wen Qiong.

Wen Qiong’s eyes seemed to be burning with anger. She wished she could rush up and tear Kong Rui and eagle into pieces.

The queen only sat silently in her seat without any expression on her face.

However, Kong Rui could clearly feel the fierce light in the queen’s eyes.

That gaze was even more sinister than Wen Qiong’s!

Kong Rui smiled and nodded at the two of them. Then, she turned around and walked towards her seat.

“Mother!” Wen Qiong tried her best to restrain her anger and called out to the queen. f𝓇𝘦e𝑤𝘦𝚋𝒏૦ѵℯ𝒍.c𝐨𝒎

The queen waved her hand and didn’t let Wen Qiong continue.

Wen Qiong slammed her hand on the arm of the chair indignantly. Her face had already turned ashen.

Fu Jiao didn’t expect Kong Rui to be able to defeat Lei Aotian. She was so shocked that she couldn’t shut her mouth.

Hua Shang, on the other hand, fanned himself leisurely while his gaze followed Kong Rui.

Just as Kong Rui sat down, Hua Shang suddenly said, “Well done!”

Kong Rui was stunned and looked at Hua Shang in confusion.

His face was still covered by the veil, and his expression couldn’t be seen, but his tone didn’t sound pretentious.

Hua Shang put away his fan and said, “With his arrogant look, I’ve long wanted to teach him a lesson! It’s just that I never had the chance. Now, you’ve taught him a lesson in my place!”

Kong Rui looked at Hua Shang suspiciously, not sure if he was telling the truth.

After Hua Shang finished speaking, he turned around calmly without looking at Kong Rui again.

“What a weirdo.” Kong Rui thought to herself.

She pursed her lips and decided to stay away from this person in the future.

Nie Yin slowly moved his gaze away from Kong Rui, but the suspicion in his eyes didn’t fade.

Li Ling was like a completely different person from before!

He didn’t believe that anyone could change so much in such a short period of time. Most importantly, her cultivation level had improved drastically. Even the spirit beast beside her exuded an evil aura!

Nie Yin glanced at the elder at the side. The elder nodded and immediately ordered people to investigate Li Ling’s recent whereabouts.

Wen Qiong’s expression became even uglier when she saw Nie Yin looking at Li Ling thoughtfully.

This match pushed the competition to the climax.

No one expected the Li family, who had given up on the princess and the Phoenix Divine Beast, to surprise everyone this time!

Under the guidance of the ceremonial officer, everyone’s attention returned to the competition.

Kong Rui sat on the spot with her eyes closed and pretended not to hear the Patriarch’s concern from time to time.

Chao Bai walked on the most lively street in the capital. The surrounding crowd was discussing the Spirit Beast Tournament.

“Have you heard? Miss Li defeated Young Master Lei!” A busybody discussed with the people around him.

“The Lei family has embarrassed themselves this time!” Someone gloated.

“The Lei family has always been arrogant. Will they become enemies with the Li family this time?”

“I think it’s possible! Didn’t you see how eager Young Master Lei was to kill Miss Li and that spirit beast when he left?!”

“In my opinion, Miss Li might really be possessed!” Someone quickly expressed his different opinion.

“What do you mean?” Someone curious asked.

“I’ve seen Miss Li before. Her abilities from before were worlds apart from now!”

“Think about it. She changed so drastically overnight. If she isn’t possessed, what else could it be?!”

The discussions continuously entered Chao Bai’s ears, making him somewhat interested in the Spirit Beast Tournament and Miss Li.

He had been sleeping in the cave all these years. It had been a long time since he had seen anything fun!

However, before Chao Bai could look for fun, trouble came knocking on his door!
