Rebirth of the Heavenly Empress - Chapter 279
Chapter 279: Who is the Trash?
Although Yu Shiyue said that, he felt frustrated. He had heard about Dugu Ji-An’s breakthrough before.
Everyone in the International Association was competing with each other. He already knew that Dugu Ji-An had remained stagnant for two years and had never broken through. Yu Shiyue had used countless potions over the past two years and had to put in a lot of effort to barely break through the bottleneck. He just managed to break through to the early-stage of the second-level.
Dugu Ji-An was also at a bottleneck. He was at the late-stage of the third-level and the early-stage of the fourth-level. Countless people would not be able to break through the bottleneck even after spending decades.
Yu Shiyue’s face darkened. Dugu Xing had said that Dugu Ji-An’s chances of breaking through in recent years were very slim, but now, he had broken through!
Especially since it was because of Su Huiqing’s guidance. This was the most unbearable thing for Yu Shiyue.
He crushed a teacup.
Seeing that Yu Shiyue was about to fly into a rage, a young disciple standing beside him said, “Second Master, Young Master An’s incident might be a coincidence. Think about it, Su Huiqing is just an ordinary person who had just returned to the Dugu Family for a few days. How can she be compared to a noble like you who has received top-notch inheritance since young?”
He was Lin Ming, a subordinate of the Yu Family’s Lin Family. As someone from a small family, he would never let go of any chance to please Yu Shiyue.
Sometimes, Yu Shiyue’s words were more than what he had gotten in the past ten years.
Not only did he harshly trample on Su Huiqing, but he even secretly praised Yu Shiyue to the heavens. Yu Shiyue was naturally happy to hear that and praised him.
Upon hearing Yu Shiyue praise him, Lin Ming couldn’t help but be overjoyed. When he saw a person from the Yu Family who was walking in a hurry not far away, his eyes lit up, and he immediately raised his voice. “Isn’t this Yu Shizhao who followed that Missy?”
As soon as he said that, everyone turned to look at Yu Shizhao. Even Yu Shiyue looked over.
Yu Shizhao stopped in his tracks and placed his phone back into his pocket. He looked at Yu Shiyue in a neither servile nor overbearing manner. He stood tall, and his voice was very calm. “Second Master.”
Many people from the Yu Family were shocked by his behavior. Yu Shizhao was just an invisible person from the side family, and his talent was mediocre.
In the Yu Family which had a collection of good talents, he was considered low-class. Usually, he had his head lowered in a submissive manner. When he saw that he had chosen that Missy of the Dugu Family’s classroom, everyone’s laughter almost drove him out of his mind.
Unexpectedly, after not seeing him for a few days, he seemed like a completely different person. This was a problem with his aura. At this moment, everyone realized that Yu Shizhao was rather handsome.
“Yu Shizhao, how did you learn from that Missy of the Dugu Family?” Lin Ming’s eyes flickered. Although he didn’t show it in his heart, he was still jealous that Yu Shizhao could get close to Su Huiqing.
Yu Shizhao could naturally tell. He put his hand in his pocket and narrowed his eyes. “Do you think I will tell you?”
Without waiting for anyone to react, he left.
Seeing that he had left, jealousy flashed across Lin Ming’s eyes. He smiled at Yu Shiyue. “Does he think that he can ascend to the heavens in a single step just by hugging Missy Dugu’s thigh? He doesn’t even know what kind of person that Missy is. If I were him, I wouldn’t even dare to appear in front of others.”
The others didn’t believe that Su Huiqing could really teach those people anything. They all smiled in disdain.
“Look at how arrogant he is today. He only knows how to cry after the competition.” Yu Shiyue smiled. “This month, everyone has been trying their best to improve themselves and place their hopes on Su Huiqing. What a joke.”
…
After receiving the main message, Su Huiqing was on her way to the small classroom after Principal Dien’s lesson.
Chief detective’s message was this: ‘Come to the Yu Family.’
Su Huiqing kept her phone and smiled at the ten people who were still in the house. “I have something to attend to at the Yu Family. Come back tomorrow.”
Yu Shizhao immediately stopped his hellish training and smiled warmly. “I am going back, too. Let’s go together.”
Seeing him like this, Dugu Ji-An stood up gracefully. “Since we are going back to the Dugu Family together, I will accompany you to the Yu Family.”
“How can I miss something like this?” Qu Yan jabbed the silver gun on the ground!
“…”
Su Huiqing saw that the few of them still wanted to follow her even after training to such an extent. She didn’t object and calmly gave in to them.
Apart from Yu Shijin’s men, there was no one else in the Yu Family who knew Su Huiqing. Meanwhile, Yu Shijin’s men had always stayed in his territory and had a higher status than most people.
Basically, she would not appear here.
Hence, when the Yu Family servant saw Su Huiqing and the rest, knowing Su Huiqing’s identity; his attitude was very normal.
However, when he saw the chief detective respectfully following behind Su Huiqing, his attitude immediately turned respectful.
Yu Shiyue didn’t expect to see Su Huiqing and her group in the Yu Family’s main residence within a few days.
Lin Ming, who was following behind him, stopped when he noticed Yu Shiyue’s gaze. When he saw the group of people not far away, he and Yu Shiyue exchanged looks and saw contempt in each other’s eyes.
Over the past few days, he basically didn’t hear any news of the ten people behind Su Huiqing breaking through. Yu Shizhao didn’t even participate in the family competition.
“I really don’t understand why Yu Shizhao wanted to learn from an ordinary person. Isn’t he afraid of embarrassing us cultivators?” Lin Ming put his hands behind his back and looked pained.
Yu Shiyue narrowed his eyes and looked at Su Huiqing, who didn’t seem to have any spirit energy fluctuations.
Then, he looked at the chief detective behind her and chuckled. “Yu Shijin, Yu Shijin, do you think you can get Dugu Heng’s support just by being with an ordinary person with a mixed bloodline? You are just… too stupid.”
Su Huiqing suddenly stopped in her tracks.
Under the puzzled gazes of chief detective and Dugu Ji-An…
She tilted her body slightly and raised her lowered eyes. Her black hair, which wasn’t pulled up in a tie, added a lazy and mysterious vibe to her. “Who did you say was humiliating you?”
Those pitch-black eyes were looking in Lin Ming’s direction.
Upon receiving Yu Shiyue’s gaze, Lin Ming—who was initially lacking in confidence—was shocked. “What did I say wrong? I don’t know what kind of person Yu Shizhao is. Three years ago, he was a loser. As expected, trash is only fit to follow behind trash.”
Before Yu Shizhao could react…
Qu Yan and the rest looked fierce. “Try calling him useless again!”
They knew that this was Yu Shijin’s home so they tried their best not to make a move.
Yu Shizhao was stunned. He never expected that after only knowing these people for ten days, they would stand up for him.
It would be a lie to say that he was not touched.
Gu Li glanced at Yu Shizhao and finally fixed his gaze on Qu Yan. He lowered his eyes and sighed.
He knew that Su Huiqing had always possessed such magical powers that people could not help but trust her. The blood in her body had never been extinguished.
The two parties were already in a deadlock.
The Yu Family guards couldn’t help but hold their breaths. Some even secretly went to look for the Yu Family Head to stop them.
Su Huiqing reached out and zipped up her jacket.
When she looked up again, her usual lazy and casual look disappeared. The corners of her lips curled up, her eyes darkened, and she looked as arrogant as a king standing on a tower.
Under everyone’s gaze, Su Huiqing calmly stuffed her hands into her pockets and narrowed her eyes. “Yu Shizhao, go tell him who the useless one is.”
Everyone went silent for a few seconds.
Qu Yan and the rest snapped out of their trance and gave Yu Shizhao a push. “Hurry up and let them see how powerful our Su Family is!”
“What Su Family?” Dugu Ji-An asked.
“Whatever.” Qu Yan waved her hand nonchalantly.
When Yu Shizhao heard Qu Yan’s words, he staggered and almost fell.
Seeing that Yu Shizhao wanted to compete with him, Lin Ming almost laughed to death. Yu Shiyue smiled even more warmly. He instructed the people around him and instantly gathered everyone from the Yu Family.
When the Yu Family Head arrived, the situation was already out of control.
“What is this Missy Dugu doing?” The Yu Family Head frowned. He knew about the relationship between Su Huiqing and Yu Shijin. It was precisely because he knew that he was even more furious. “Do you think you can be so arrogant just because you are a Missy? You even want to pit someone against your student. Do you know how capable you are?!”
Yu Shiyue looked at the increasing number of people around him and then at the Yu Family Head’s black face. He couldn’t help but laugh mockingly.
