She became a god

No matter how incredible it is that Ye Qingzhou managed to make it into the top ten four times, the competition still has to go on.

Number 21, Wen Xichun, was too strong; she defeated her opponent in one move. Poor Number 1, Liu Yufan, who had just been making headlines yesterday, was knocked down today.

Ye Qingzhou had just finished preparing the ingredients for her super deluxe taro sorbet when the second round of the competition began.

Ye Qingzhou finally learned the name of the male cultivator who had raised the question: Lin Jing'an.

He drew number 2, and his opponent was number 20, Lin Jingchuan.

The two were also cousins.

Lin Jing'an is a harsh man, but he is diligent in his cultivation. One move from him reveals his profound spiritual power and seasoned experience in dealing with enemies.

In comparison, Lin Jingchuan seemed rather inexperienced.

In terms of both cultivation level and combat experience, Lin Jing'an far surpasses Lin Jingchuan.

However, Lin Jingchuan possessed several high-grade Yellow-level magic treasures, and with the enhancement of these treasures, the two fought to a standstill for a time.

Ye Qingzhou was too lazy to watch the two brothers fight amongst themselves, so she picked up the taro puree ice cream she had made and walked towards Wenxi Spring.

"Hey, try it, it's really delicious!"

Wen Xichun scooped up a spoonful and put it in her mouth. She found it sweet and delicious, and it even contained some spiritual energy.

“This spiritual food is indeed delicious.”

For someone as aloof as her, such a reply was already extremely kind.

Ye Qingzhou knew that Wen Xichun wanted to praise her, but she couldn't help but feel proud. When she was happy, she couldn't help but pull people aside and tell them how she had won over her clan and her master's friends and relatives with her cooking skills. She also emphasized their surprise, joy and longing after eating her cooking.

According to Ye Qingzhou, all the diners were captivated by her culinary skills and charmed by the spiritual food she produced.

The sight of the two women eating and chatting was constantly observed by the observant cultivators.

No wonder Wen Xichun suddenly spoke up about the noise; it turns out she knows Ye Qingzhou.

It makes sense, if they didn't have a relationship, why would Ye Qingzhou always make excuses for Wen Xichun from the very first day of the ceremony?

That day, when he said he had never seen her before, it was probably just Ye Qingzhou lying.

Some people wondered if Wen Xichun, whose parents and sect were unknown, was actually a demon cultivator because he got along so well with Ye Qingzhou.

In any case, Ye Qingzhou was incredibly smooth-talking. When she tricked them into betting on spirit stones, she kept saying things like, "Fellow Daoists, fate has brought us together...", "Friends, don't you really want to give it a try?", and "We're all fellow Daoists, why would I lie to you?"

Now she's even entangled with Wen Xichun, the number one madwoman in Central Continent whom they despise. What is this?!

This is clearly a blatant betrayal!

Ye Qingzhou: ? ? ?

Ye Qingzhou noticed those subtle glances. Although she didn't hear any gossip about her and Wen Xichun even after using her Wind-Following Ear Technique, she was inexplicably convinced that they had probably cursed her and Wen Xichun many times in their eyes and hearts.

One side offers me spirit stones, elixirs, and magical treasures, while the other side is willing to gamble but refuses to accept defeat. It's perfectly normal for me to favor the side that gives me money!

It's not my fault!

Next time... next time I, Ye Qingzhou, will definitely swindle them out of a huge amount of spirit stones, so that they will never dare to harbor resentment towards me again.

There's a saying that goes something like this: When someone swindles a little of your money, you'll resent or even hate them; but when someone swindles a lot of your money, you'll respect them!

Ye Qingzhou naturally wanted to strive to be the one who was respected!

Thinking of this, her almond-shaped eyes darted around, as if a new idea had come to mind.

"boom!"

The sound of a huge object hitting the ground shattered Ye Qingzhou's reverie. She looked in the direction of the sound and saw Lin Jing'an lying on the ground with blood still on the corner of his mouth.

So, Lin Jingchuan won?

There was a lot of discussion among those present.

"Lin Jingchuan actually won?"

"Wasn't it rumored before that Lin Jingchuan was a good-for-nothing in the Lin family?"

"I remember that the Lin family was full of talented people. The fact that the matriarch of the Lin family died in childbirth but left behind a useless person with five spiritual roots was a big deal in the Central Continent back then."

"It's true, but who can blame him for having such a good father, good brother, and good sister? His father, the clan chief, nourished his body with elixirs and his genius siblings found him magical treasures. Six years ago, they really taught him to turn his fortunes around and successfully guide his Qi into his body. It's so good to have someone guide you in cultivating immortality; in just six years, he went from the early stage of Qi Refining to the peak of Foundation Establishment."

"Lin Jingchuan is really lucky!"

"That's right. Even after being a good-for-nothing for over twenty years, I'm still cherished and loved by my family like a precious jewel."

Cultivators rarely have offspring, so they value their descendants highly. However, both parents and children are busy with cultivation, so they have very little time to spend together and their relationship is not particularly deep.

As for the useless descendants, they will not be treated harshly, but they will certainly be neglected.

Despite his more than twenty years of being a good-for-nothing, Lin Jingchuan was still called the Third Young Master Lin and could eat the First-Grade Nourishing Essence Pill like candy, which shows how much he was loved.

Moreover, the Lin family is one of the six major cultivation families in the Central Continent. The fact that they produced a good-for-nothing like Lin Jingchuan has made them the target of ridicule from other families for a long time.

Despite these circumstances, Lin Jingchuan was still able to enjoy a large amount of cultivation resources and successfully waited for the day when he would "achieve great things late in life," which shows that he was truly loved by his family as he grew up.

Lin Jingchuan was also one of the most talked-about figures at this event. Previously, he was seen as a good-for-nothing who got lucky, but now he seems to be a good-for-nothing who also got lucky and has a bunch of magical treasures.

Lin Jingchuan, who had gotten lucky, looked at Lin Jing'an sheepishly and said, "Brother An, this is my first time using the Moon Slayer Blade. I didn't handle it well, so please forgive me."

Lin Jingchuan can swear to God that he really did not mean to make Lin Jing'an bleed.

Although they are not related by blood, they are still from the same lineage.

However, his cultivation level was indeed inferior to Lin Jing'an's, so he could only win by using magic weapons.

During the battle, he became more and more proficient with the Moon-Slaying Blade, and the power of the low-grade Xuan-level blade gradually came into play. In addition, he had consumed several bottles of Spirit Gathering Pills, so he had too much spiritual energy. With a single swing of his blade, he injured Lin Jing'an, who was deficient in spiritual energy, and knocked him off the stage.

He may have a thousand explanations, but in the eyes of the arrogant and suspicious Lin Jing'an, they are all hypocritical.

"You don't need to say anything more. I have never lost to you. I only lost because I don't have as many elixirs and magical treasures as you."

Lin Jing'an forced himself to get up and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

Seeing the self-mockery, disdain, and disgust in those eyes that resembled his own, Lin Jingchuan was speechless for a moment.

After a short while, Lin Jing'an staggered away, leaving many cultivators sighing with regret.

"Lin Jing'an was the most famous prodigy of the Lin family after Lin Jingyu in this generation. Who would have thought that he, who had made it to the top twenty, would not only fail to continue but would also be defeated by his cousin, who was originally a good-for-nothing."

"Originally a good-for-nothing, he is now a prodigy."

"A prodigy who advanced by throwing magical artifacts?"

"There's Ye Qingzhou for women and Lin Jingchuan for men. It's not that I'm stingy, but these two fellow Daoists won too easily, and not because of their own strength."

“What you say is absolutely right, but the world is not entirely fair.”

……

A seemingly useless person rises to prominence, possesses five spiritual roots, wins with magical treasures, and fights between brothers—this plot seems familiar.

Ye Qingzhou felt something was off the more she thought about it; she seemed to have heard the name Lin Jingchuan somewhere a long time ago.
