Chapter 74

"Mo Yu can do it?" Nangong Suxin said in surprise, she could understand Guxing and Third Miss knowing this, after all it was just saying they could do it, not as scary as County Princess Ling Lan, there were really too many people who could do it.

But someone like Young Miss, she couldn't imagine her knowing such things.

"Young Miss's ice-snow intelligence is no less than yours, it's just her way of doing things is somewhat strange," Xiaoyao replied indifferently.

"..." Nangong Suxin fell silent, after coming into contact with Young Miss, she also discovered Young Miss wasn't simple, just hadn't faced it squarely.

"Actually your worry is normal, after all this is very difficult, however, because what we just had was the most difficult one, not all are like this, that's why you have this feeling. On the first box, I wrote four characters, six steps southeast," Xiaoyao said.

"..."

Everyone was speechless, this first one's difficulty level was almost a gift, as long as someone discovered this problem, but they believed no one would pay attention to such a box in this situation.

"Actually, the first one I gave people who couldn't snatch tokens a chance, but this also depends on heaven's will," Xiaoyao smiled, he would give anyone a chance, opportunity was also a kind of strength.

"Heaven's will..."

"You're very Taoist, like to deal with these fate and heaven's will matters..."

Nangong Suxin and the others reached a conclusion about Xiaoyao.

"Taoism is just a more mystical explanation of heaven and earth's rules, but even without Taoism's existence, the rules between heaven and earth still exist, and everyone's understanding of this is different, also forming many sects, although these sects have been arguing endlessly. This isn't because any of them are wrong, but because they only see a part, people can never know all the patterns between heaven and earth. Those who think they know are only because of ignorance."

"Because of ignorance we want to know, but because we know we feel we're more ignorant, this isn't contradictory, it's just because after knowing, we understand our own insignificance."

Xiaoyao looked toward the distance, suddenly saying a very mystical passage, at this time everyone just felt it was somewhat baffling, but the more their cultivation grew, the more they discovered the power of this passage.

The people present now didn't know that this baffling passage Xiaoyao suddenly said had such significant effect on their mental state cultivation.

Even if they couldn't understand other things, at least they could know one point, which was not to be arrogant, their strength is only relative, in fact they are very small.

"Little servant, why do I feel like this trial seems to all come from your handiwork, but your time wasn't enough either, you came to the capital together with us," Nangong Suxin had a very strange feeling, felt it was but also definitely wasn't.

"How could I have such great ability, at most I just helped out," Xiaoyao casually replied.

"I know, but I always feel like it seems you did it, really contradictory," Nangong Suxin frowned, this appearance made several nearby men's hearts flutter, this woman's charm was indeed extraordinary.

Xiaoyao didn't respond, this matter indeed had that little bit of relationship with him, he just slightly modified the design blueprints.

Nangong Suxin also didn't think much more, however she could be certain some things definitely had to do with Xiaoyao, like the previous box design and token hiding spots.

"The exit is ahead."

Xiaoyao brought the group to the exit, at this time Young Miss had already caught up, looking very excited, you could see her relationship with Ke Xin and the other two girls seemed more intimate, although the others just saw her as a woman.

"Xiaoyao, will you walk together with us?" Guxing looked at Xiaoyao, gently asking.

"Right, can you walk together with us?" Young Miss also asked, almost repeating.

"Yes, together, why not," Xiaoyao replied, he also gave two answers.

"Aren't you avoiding suspicion, preventing others from suspecting you're favoring us?" Nangong Suxin asked first, swallowing back the words Young Miss was about to ask.

"What's there to suspect, I'm the person welcoming you, bringing you out of here, this is originally within my work scope," Xiaoyao explained, afterward Xiaoyao could lead people out.

"So that's how it is."

"You passed this stage, but don't relax, you still have the third stage," Xiaoyao continued saying ahead.

"We'll talk about the third stage when it comes, after I get out I want to eat a big meal, also want to sleep beautifully, you serve me," Young Miss pointed at Xiaoyao, saying with a smile.

"Aren't you going to be together with Princess Ke Xin?"

"Oh right, I almost forgot, then I don't need you."

"Truly a Young Miss who values beauty over servants, however I want to tell you, you'd better put down these thoughts first, eating a big meal later is fine, but sleeping well will be difficult," Xiaoyao said with a smile, seeming to have news to break but was keeping people in suspense.

"What do you want to say, why can't I sleep?" Young Miss was very puzzled.

"Because you're going directly to the third round next, there's no rest time in between," Xiaoyao broke the news, this news made everyone here stunned.

According to their thinking, between the previous first and second rounds there was rest, so they also felt there would be rest time in between this time too.

"What did you say?"

"No rest in between?"

"Directly entering the third round?"

Immediately the scene became somewhat chaotic, everyone was asking Xiaoyao questions, although the language was different, the questions were different, but the answers they wanted were the same.

"That's right, no rest, directly entering the third round."

Soon Xiaoyao's words were confirmed, when the group appeared it was almost the last time limit, they turned in tokens, met up with Nangong Tianming and the others again, exchanged information, then someone immediately announced the start of the third trial.

"This trial is very simple, there are several paths ahead for you to walk, but this time it's not for you to choose, but decided by drawing lots which path you'll take."

"Also this time there are no tokens, only some experts guarding passes, if you pass their tests you can advance."

In the end there still had to be people guarding passes, requiring certain strength to advance, this made Xiaoyao feel very strange, why didn't you just be straightforward and directly use this method to select people.

Very simple, those experts were very busy.

Of course there was another most important reason, they weren't just selecting who had the strongest power, but also looking at who had the greatest potential, these people were still young now, those with greatest potential would be strongest in future, not looking at the present.

"Xiaoyao, which gate is best?" Young Miss asked Xiaoyao while walking.

"The one with only one person," Xiaoyao answered.

"Only one person, what do you mean?"

"There's one path that only one person can enter, in the drawing there's only one," Xiaoyao replied.

"What's on this path?" Young Miss asked.

"Nothing."

"You should say something, nothing what," Young Miss was somewhat angry.

"Just nothing," Xiaoyao still answered the same thing.

"Damn, are you playing with me?"

"No, just nothing, don't you understand?"

"You..." Young Miss wanted to pounce over and bite someone.

At this time Guxing said, "Mo Yu, Xiaoyao's meaning is this path has nothing on it."

"..."

"Nothing at all?" Young Miss was full of confusion, what did this mean.

"Yes, just nothing," Xiaoyao nodded in reply.

"What does this mean?"

"Only one person can draw this lucky lot, this can show this person's luck, luck is also a kind of strength," Xiaoyao answered.

"This also counts?" Young Miss was even more puzzled.

Xiaoyao replied indifferently, "Why can't it count, people's luck can bring fortuitous encounters, people with fortuitous encounters might be stronger than those who worked hard for decades, also luck can let people avoid some misfortunes, can bring people good timing to defeat enemies, many times some things depend on luck. But such people are even rarer than peerless geniuses like you..."

"..."

"I understand, just like Third Brother, he was struck by lightning, recovered his intelligence, that's also a kind of luck," Young Miss nodded.

After hearing Xiaoyao's explanation, everyone felt relieved, sometimes people are like this, one person's luck can make them work many years less than others, but this can't be envied, also you can't stop working hard because you want this luck.

Therefore everyone wouldn't only think about relying on luck because of this, that would be foolish behavior.

However at this time everyone was also very much hoping they could get this luck, could pass the third stage without danger, except for Guxing.

Guxing wasn't because she had strength and didn't think about it, just because she felt this luck wouldn't fall on her, she was Heavenly Fiend Lone Star, how could she have such good luck.

The result was the person who got this luck indeed wasn't Guxing, but was also from Qingyun Province's group, was the person everyone felt most speechless about, the person with least thoughts of improvement, everyone could only sigh, truly wasting this heaven's will.

This person was, "Haha, sister said sister is invincible, look everyone, sister is the only one," Young Miss holding the lot in her hand, she came to the corresponding path and discovered at the entrance there was only her alone, while other entrances all had multiple people, this answer was already very obvious, she was the one with best luck who would pass without danger.

"Little servant, you didn't cheat?" Nangong Suxin was very dissatisfied with this result, suspecting Xiaoyao had interfered.

"Miss Nangong, if I cheated I'd give it to my boss, why would I give it to Young Miss, she just wants to become Qingyun's little tyrant," Xiaoyao said unhappily, Young Miss's luck was truly speechless.
