Because Baili Zongxue saw that Gu Ning didn’t expose the fact that she was also a cultivator, she knew how to work with her.
Right when Baili Zongxue stopped the magical power released by Jing Yuelan, Gu Ning attacked Jing Yuelan.
Gu Ning moved fast and hit accurately, so she easily hit Jing Yuelan. Under the force, Jing Yuelan backed up a few steps and immediately created a distance between them.
Afterwards, the two sides stood against each other, but nobody moved.
Jing Yuelan didn’t move again, because she knew that she was no match for Gu Ning and Baili Zongxue when they teamed up. If she continued to fight against them, she would be injured.
Anyway, Gu Ning’s skills really impressed her.
Looking at Gu Ning, Jing Yuelan was full of surprise. She was jealous of Gu Ning’s beauty and was also mad at Gu Ning’s cooperation with Baili Zongxue.
“Who are you? What’s your name?” asked Jing Yuelan. She wanted to know more about Gu Ning.
Jing Yuelan harbored grudges, so she made up her mind to pay Gu Ning back since she got involved and even defeated her.
“Keep it in mind. My name is Gu Ning. If you want to pay me back, come to the Capital University. I’m studying economics.” Gu Ning beamed at Jing Yuelan, but it didn’t mean that she was kind. On the contrary, she was challenging Jing Yuelan.
Jing Yuelan understood that very well, so she got angrier.
She didn’t say anything further to Gu Ning, because she already learned what she wanted to know.
Jing Yuelan didn’t doubt Gu Ning’s reply, because Gu Ning’s attitude proved everything. There was no need for Gu Ning to lie to her.
Baili Zongxue was also aware that Jing Yuelan would pay Gu Ning back, but she said nothing. After all, Jing Yuelan was no match for Gu Ning.
Since Jing Yuelan asked for it herself, Baili Zongxue wouldn’t bother to stop her.
“Baili Zongxue, if I see you alone next time, I’ll surely make you beg for my mercy.” Jing Yuelan was reluctant to give in, but she understood that she couldn’t win today. Therefore, she stopped arguing with them and directly left after threatening Baili Zongxue.
She wouldn’t forgive Gu Ning either, but she didn’t threaten Gu Ning, because Gu Ning was a mortal. If she threatened a mortal, Baili Zongxue might tell on her.
It was very normal for cultivators to compete against each other, so she could threaten Baili Zongxue. As long as no one was seriously injured, Tiandaozong wouldn’t get involved. Their families wouldn’t bother to punish them either.
Therefore, Jing Yuelan and Baili Zongxue always fought against one another whenever they met.
Actually, it was not only Jing Yuelan and Baili Zongxue, there were many other cultivators who didn’t get along and secretly fought against one another.
Even if someone was injured, as long as no one took it seriously, it wouldn’t be a problem.
They usually made it very clear before they had a competition. There would be a witness and evidence to prove that both sides agreed.
“Fine, then I’ll tell my older brother how malicious you are!” Baili Zongxue shouted to Jing Yuelan’s back. She wasn’t afraid of Jing Yuelan, and she was simply unwilling to waste more time on Jing Yuelan.
Hearing that, Jing Yuelan stumbled. She turned around and gave Baili Zongxue a glare. Without a word, she left.
“Who is she?” When Jing Yuelan was gone, Gu Ning asked. She wanted to find out whether Jing Yuelan was a member of the Jing family.
“She’s Jing Yuelan, a member of the Jing family. Her mother is Jing Yunchan. Because her father married into the Jing family, she inherited her mother’s surname,” said Baili Zongxue.
Gu Ning nodded. It turned out that Jing Yuelan was really a member of the Jing family. No wonder she was so hateful!
“Jing Yuelan is really a bad girl. She easily gets jealous, but only dares to bully the weak. For example, she likes my older brother, so she has done everything to stop my older brother’s other admirers from approaching him. However, she only dares to bully the girls who are weaker than her. She dares not mess with Dongfang Ziyu. Although Dongfang Ziyu isn’t my older brother’s girlfriend, they are a widely acknowledged perfect match in the cultivation world. But there is no chemistry between them. They simply don’t hate each other. My family and the Dongfang family are willing to form an alliance, but it still depends on them…” said Baili Zongxue, but she suddenly realized that she had gone too far. “Oh, where did I go? I was talking about Jing Yuelan, but ended up with my older brother.”
“Anyway, there are many other examples to prove that Jing Yuelan isn’t a good girl. She actually has a fiancé, but her fiancé isn’t as handsome and strong as my older brother. Her fiancé’s family background is also not comparable to my family. Therefore, she keeps on bothering my older brother. During these years, my older brother rarely comes back to the cultivation world, so she can’t see him very often. As a result, she started to bother me. She has tried to force me to take her to see him. I honestly don’t know why she can be so shameless…” Baili Zongxue really disliked Jing Yuelan. Unfortunately, she wasn’t stronger than her, or she would teach her a lesson!
“There aren’t many good people in the Jing family,” said Gu Ning. She had met several members of the Jing family till now, and each of them was very hateful.
Only Jing Yunyao and Jing Jining were pleasant to get along with.
“Right, there are only a few good people in the Jing family. Only Junior Mr. Jing’s family is upright and kind. Their patriarch’s family is the most hateful!” Baili Zongxue said, “Oh, I must tell you this. The Jing family’s patriarch actually had a daughter with his first wife. The girl’s name is Jing Yunyao. I heard Jing Yunyao was bullied by her step-mother and step-siblings ever since she was little. She didn’t get any attention from her father until she made great progress. However, she ran away from the Jing family afterwards. She left the cultivation world for the mortal world. There is a rule in the cultivation world. Cultivators can’t be together with mortals. If anyone dares to break the rule, he or she will be deprived of all their abilities as a cultivator before being chased out of the cultivation world. But I heard Jing Yunyao was killed. It has something to do with her father. I don’t know whether it’s true, but everyone is secretly saying that. I think it’s highly likely to be the truth.”
