Honoring the Bet, a Heaven-Shaking Comeback
Zhu Yizhou took a long time to recover, but his face was ashen and his eyes were still somewhat empty and dull.
Upon hearing Su Yuxuan's words, his cheeks flushed red, and he glanced at the crowd outside the arena with a strange smile on his face.
Zhao Yanyu's nemesis's mocking voice was clearly audible, especially the disdain in Wang Ruoxi's junior sister's eyes, which felt like a knife stabbing into his heart.
He was extremely reluctant to say, "I, Zhu Yizhou, was blind," but the chilling aura emanating from the sword made it impossible for him to refuse.
At this moment, he wished the ring would crack open so he could crawl inside and escape this cruel reality.
Seeing that Zhu Yizhou was delaying in fulfilling the bet, Su Yuxuan immediately sneered:
"Oh, the Azure Cloud Sect Holy Son of the Qingyun Sect, are you going to break your promise in front of everyone?"
Hmph, you used to look down on me for not being good enough for you, but now you can't even reach me!
Zhu Yizhou, hurry up and honor your bet! Otherwise, if my hand slips, you might lose your life.
After saying that, she slightly lowered her wrist, and the blade immediately sliced through Zhu Yizhou's skin, causing blood to seep out instantly.
Seeing Zhu Yizhou's crushing defeat, Zhao Yanyu was shocked, but he was also filled with barely suppressed excitement.
Seeing that Zhu Yizhou was reluctant to fulfill his promise, he immediately shouted loudly:
"Zhu Yizhou, you hypocrite! Are you trying to renege on your promise?"
Tsk tsk, is this the true face of the so-called righteous path?
They speak grandly and righteously, but are actually hypocritical and despicable. Compared to the courage and integrity of our demonic path, they are far inferior!
The demonic cultivators present became excited; such opportunities to see the righteous path make a fool of themselves were rare, and they all joined in the jeering.
"Zhu Yizhou, are you trying to renege on the bet?"
"A righteous hypocrite, truly deceitful!"
"How shameless! We specifically agreed to the bet before the competition, and now they want to renege on it!"
The righteous cultivators listened to the mockery of the demonic cultivators, their faces turning ashen, yet they couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal.
This happened in broad daylight, the evidence was irrefutable, and there was no way to defend oneself; one could only glare angrily at the demonic people.
Immediately, everyone turned their attention to Zhu Yizhou on the stage, hoping that he would keep his promise.
After all, fulfilling the agreement would only bring shame to him and the Azure Cloud Sect, but failing to do so would make the entire righteous path ridiculed by the demonic path, further solidifying his reputation as a "hypocrite of the righteous path."
The stinging pain on Zhu Yizhou's neck brought him fully awake, and the shouts of the demonic cultivators echoed in his ears.
He knew in his heart that he had to fulfill this bet, otherwise the Azure Cloud Sect would not forgive him, and the other righteous cultivators would not let him off the hook either.
He fulfilled his promise; he remains the Holy Son of the Azure Cloud Sect.
If they fail to keep their promise, not only will they lose their position as the Holy Son, but they may even be killed by other righteous cultivators to protect the reputation of the righteous path.
Looking at Su Yuxuan's smug smile, he felt a mixture of hatred and regret. At the same time, he finally understood the humiliation she had suffered when he went to her door to annul the engagement.
"I lost!"
He gritted his teeth and said, "I am the Holy Son of the Azure Cloud Sect, unlike those demonic cultivators who dare to do things but not admit them. I will naturally fulfill the bet."
But Su Yuxuan, don't be so smug! The dignity I've lost today, I'll take back sooner or later. Just you wait!
He paused slightly, his face turning bright red. Even with his habitually outspoken nature, he found it difficult to speak at this moment.
Finally, he closed his eyes, hardened his heart, and shouted at the top of his lungs, "I, Zhu Yizhou, was blind!"
He shouted three times, as if all his strength had been drained, and collapsed to the ground.
Looking up at the blue sky and white clouds above, he felt that the world had lost its luster.
Su Yuxuan felt incredibly pleased. "Zhu Yizhou, you've finally met your match!"
As for getting revenge? Dream on! Those I've defeated will never be my match.
Having said that, she sheathed her spirit sword. Although she wished she could kill him with a single strike, she also knew that the Holy Son of the Azure Cloud Sect was not someone she could kill at will.
If you kill him in a moment of pleasure, you and your parents will definitely be hunted down by the Azure Cloud Sect, and you might even be besieged by the Azure Cloud Sect cultivators right after the killing.
She wasn't as insane as Liu Yi, Bai Qianqian, and Chen Jie, who would kill anyone, regardless of whether they were a Holy Son or an Elder.
As for Zhu Yizhou's earlier threat to "get revenge," Su Yuxuan didn't take it to heart at all.
With memories of her past life and the Fairness System by her side, if she were to truly lose to the other party, she might as well find a block of tofu and smash her head against it to avoid making a fool of herself.
She then leaped off the ring and landed steadily beside her parents.
"Father, Mother, I defeated Zhu Yizhou!"
"Excellent! Excellent! As expected of my daughter, Su Lie's daughter, you are truly outstanding!"
Su Lie nodded excitedly, his voice even a few decibels louder, "You'll definitely find an even better husband in the future!"
As for Zhu Yizhou, that blind fool, he looks down on everyone all day long. Tell him to go somewhere cool and stay somewhere else.
Since being jilted, the family of three had finally washed away all the humiliation they had suffered, and today they were able to hold their heads high in triumph.
Jiang Mei smiled and agreed, her eyes full of satisfaction. "Xiaoxuan, your father is right. There are plenty of good men out there. You'll definitely find someone a hundred times better than Zhu Yizhou."
Su Yuxuan was both amused and exasperated. She had clearly stated that she didn't want to find dao companion, so why were they still harping on it?
"Father, Mother, I really have no interest in finding dao companion right now. I just want to focus on improving my cultivation. Otherwise, it would be truly shameful to be defeated by Zhu Yizhou one day!"
Su Lie and Jiang Mei exchanged a glance, somewhat helpless, but still said gently:
"Okay, we'll listen to you and respect your choice."
Su Yuxuan entered the live stream with her Divine Sense and immediately saw that the number of viewers had reached 9.5 billion.
Although it didn't reach 10 billion, she was already very satisfied.
Having little fame to begin with, the sheer volume of buzz surrounding her first live stream has exceeded her expectations.
At this moment, the live stream chat was filled with dense, non-stop comments:
"Wow! Su Yuxuan is so cool! This is a true, amazing comeback, crushing those who looked down on her under her feet."
"This is probably the first time Zhu Yizhou, a holy son of the Azure Cloud Sect, has suffered such a blow. It's hard to say whether he can recover."
Even if he recovers, it's useless; he's not bound to the system, so there's no way he can surpass Su Yuxuan.
Even if he binds to the system later, if he is slow at one step, he will be slow at every step and will still fall behind others.
By then, the people of the mortal realm in the Central Continent will already be bound to the system, and they will have one less way to earn Energy Points.
"This incident proves once again that with Fairness System in place, it is truly possible to defy fate and achieve an astonishing comeback!"
I'll never look down on people again; I might get slapped in the face someday.
"Yes! Now the people of the Eastern Desolation cultivation Immortal Realm have finally come to terms with reality and put down their arrogant airs."
They've even started greeting us mortal cultivators with smiles! This is truly remarkable!
Seeing the donation notifications popping up in the live stream every now and then, Su Yuxuan smiled and used her Divine Sense to say in the live stream:
"Thank you all for the donations! Today I finally defeated Zhu Yizhou and washed away my shame."
Next, I will continue to livestream the competition between the Eastern Desolation prodigies and the Central Continent Plains prodigies. I hope you enjoy it and will support me with Duoduo donations!
Zhu Yizhou lay on the arena for a while before he came to his senses. He struggled to get up and took out the Spring-Returning Pill.
He glanced around, too ashamed to stay any longer, so he flew away from the arena and headed out of Flying Immortal City.
