After Having Everything Taken Away, She Returns As A God-Chapter 998: Fighting to Spoil Qingqing (1)

Chapter 998: Fighting to Spoil Qingqing (1)

The door opened in response, and Yuejian had already gathered her evolved being power, ready to strike at any moment.

In the next second, their eyes met.

“…”

Silence, complete silence.

Inside, Yuejian was poised for action.

Outside, YUAN Mingchi held a talisman.

Both of them had disguised themselves, but they recognized each other instantly upon seeing the other.

After all, they didn’t rely on sight to identify people.

It was as if the air itself had stopped moving, the atmosphere thick with tension.

Yuejian stepped forward and closed the door.

After a long, long silence, YUAN Mingchi exhaled slowly, still somewhat unsure. “Third senior sister?”

“It’s Little Five, I see.” Yuejian crossed her arms and leaned against the door, raising an eyebrow. “So it was you who Qingqing mentioned would be bringing her back? That’s quite a surprise.”

YUAN Mingchi pressed his brow, smiling helplessly. “The bigger surprise is for me. I thought…”

He thought he was the first to find their little junior sister, planning to root out the traitor within their sect and then proudly show off to the other senior brothers and sisters.

Instead, he found Yuejian at Si Fuqing’s home, in casual clothes no less.

What did this imply?

It meant he had been beaten to it long ago!

Though both were from Cloud Summit, YUAN Mingchi and Yuejian had little interaction.

Yuejian was a reclusive mystic with exceptional skills in disguise and voice alteration, so much so that even acquaintances wouldn’t recognize her if they passed by her on the street.

Only Tan Jingmo, known as the “socialite of Cloud Summit,” had any significant interactions with her.

“What did you think?” Yuejian saw right through YUAN Mingchi’s thoughts, raising her eyebrow higher and adding with a casual air, “Oh, by the way, you’re actually the third to find little junior six. We met with Old Six have already met her.”

YUAN Mingchi’s smile faltered, and a name escaped through his gritted teeth. “Raphael Muston?”

He was the third?!

“Yes, but Old Six didn’t recognize her.” Yuejian, seeing YUAN Mingchi’s disheartened look, finally showed some mercy. “So, you’re still the second to find little junior sister.”

YUAN Mingchi looked at her glumly, not comforted by this at all.

He should have been the first!

“Why are you two standing at the door?” Si Fuqing arrived with a suitcase, curious. “If you’re catching up, do it inside, not at the door.”

Yuejian turned around, her tone leisurely. “Little Five is jealous that I found you first and that I know your real name.”

She, on the other hand, felt a secret satisfaction.

YUAN Mingchi smiled, a hint of danger in his expression. “Little junior sister, your real name?”

Si Fuqing blinked. “Oh, Si Fuqing. You can find it easily online.”

Yuejian spread her hands. “But I know it because little junior sister told me herself.”

YUAN Mingchi snorted lightly. “So, did you also find her and save her from dire straits like I did?”

“Wait,” Si Fuqing interjected. “I think ‘dire straits’ is a bit—”

Inappropriate.

But she didn’t get to finish, as the narrow hallway was suddenly filled with a murderous aura.

“Little Five, do you want to fight?” Yuejian flexed her wrist. “There’s a training room in the basement. Shall we?”

YUAN Mingchi smiled slightly. “I wouldn’t mind, third senior sister, if you may.”

Si Fuqing was speechless.

They were supposed to be loving and supportive senior brothers and sisters, so why did the atmosphere change so quickly?

“Stop, stop.” Si Fuqing immediately stood between them. “If you two fight, you’ll demolish the whole building. We’ve been through enough recently. Let’s go inside and eat first. My auntie’s cooking is excellent.”

Just as she finished speaking, Yuejian hooked an arm around her shoulders, a familiar gesture. “I haven’t had the chance to save little junior sister, but we can have a great time at the bar together. Can you say the same, Little Five?”

Si Fuqing thought to herself that this was nonsense because they hadn’t even made it to the bar before encountering someone Yuejian had wronged, who was also an officer from Zero.

YUAN Mingchi’s smile grew more dangerous.

The two of them seemed ready to fight at any moment.

“Auntie, I’m home.” Si Fuqing took the initiative, opening the door with her key. “I’d like some braised fish.”

“I’ve already made it for you.” Ye Zhenmian, unaware of the confrontation outside, came out with a smile. “Is this gentleman a friend you met in Eastern Mulberry?”

YUAN Mingchi instantly restrained his aura. “Good evening, madam. My surname is YUAN. Please call me Mingchi.”

“No need to be so formal. Mingchi, you and Yuejian can call me auntie too,” Ye Zhenmian said with a smile. “Since you’re a friend of Si Fuqing’s, join us for dinner.”

YUAN Mingchi’s smile stiffened.

Had Old Three already ingratiated herself with little junior sister family?

Yuejian met YUAN Mingchi’s deathly gaze with a deepened smile. “Qingqing, today I taught your little brother how to use the power of an evolved being. He’s learning well.”

Si Fuqing smiled. “Third senior sister, if you keep speaking, fifth senior brother might assassinate you.”

“Assassinate me?” Yuejian shrugged. “I’ve never fought Little Five. I’m looking forward to it.”

The undercurrent between them was so palpable that even Nian Yi’an, who was eating and doing his homework, sensed something was off.

He looked up in confusion, meeting YUAN Mingchi’s gaze.

Before he could greet him, Yuan Mingchi raised an eyebrow and asked, “Would you like to learn Yin-Yang techniques? I can teach you. Someone else can’t.”

Nian Yi’an was speechless.

No, he didn’t want to.

He had too much to study and just wanted to relax.

“Yin-Yang techniques are boring.” Yuejian clicked her tongue. “Yi’an, learn martial arts from me. I’ll teach you close-combat techniques.”

Nian Yi’an was speechless again.

Spare him.

Si Fuqing, ensuring they wouldn’t fight, finally picked up her chopsticks.

Her phone chimed with a special notification.

[Yu Xiheng]: Are you home?

[Si Fuqing]: Yes, eating my auntie’s cooking [spinning.gif]

[Si Fuqing]: Have you eaten, Brother Nine?

[Yu Xiheng]: Yes, I have. I’ll pick you up tomorrow.

[Si Fuqing]: Okay, I’ll wait for you [heart.gif]

She propped her chin with one hand, replying with the other, looking much more lively and cheerful.

Yuejian, holding her chopsticks, spoke in a low voice only the two of them could hear. “Don’t you think little junior sister has changed a lot?”

“Yes.” YUAN Mingchi paused, speaking softly. “She used to smile, but it wasn’t genuine.”

Si Fuqing was even more mysterious than Yuejian. They only knew she had spent some time at Eternity Academy.

After that, something had happened. It was as if something inside her had broken overnight.

During that period, she returned to Cloud Summit and locked herself in her room, spending days and nights in “Eternity,” as if she didn’t care about her life.

Though “Eternity” could enhance their abilities, it linked to their brain waves. Prolonged use or excessive injuries could severely damage their nervous system, potentially rendering them comatose.

Even their elder senior brother had never trained that intensely.

“It’s a good thing.” Yuejian nodded. “At least she’s genuinely happy now.”

YUAN Mingchi agreed.

The meal ended smoothly, with Nian Yi’an quickly excusing himself to study for the college entrance exam, leaving in a hurry.

Si Fuqing arranged a guest room for YUAN Mingchi and headed to the gaming pod.

“Little junior sister, you don’t need to lie in the gaming pod to sleep right after coming back, do you?” YUAN Mingchi frowned. “Although it can restore energy, it’s still exhausting. Given your current condition, you shouldn’t overtrain.”

“Don’t worry, fifth senior brother. I’m not training.” Si Fuqing opened the pod lid. “I’m playing the Emperor Development Plan.”

YUAN Mingchi was puzzled.

He really didn’t understand.

Young people these days had such creative ways to entertain themselves.

The next day, at Great XiaUniversity.

After the broadcast of “The Birth of an Employee,” Wei Chengyun had become a campus celebrity.

Even walking on the street, people asked for his autograph, which was quite challenging for someone with a stoic face.

Chen Wenxin had also gained some popularity, but Wu Wanying’s situation remained unchanged.

With graduation season approaching, many students at Great Xia Univrsity were taking their graduation photos.

After taking photos with her roommates, Wu Wanying looked at her empty left sleeve, her expression darkening.

“Wanying, your thesis doesn’t need any revisions.” Her roommate was envious. “Your pre-defense and blind review went smoothly, so the defense should be a breeze.”

After finishing their theses, students had to submit them for a pre-defense.

The pre-defense involved advisors contacting known colleagues for the first review, providing feedback, and approving the student for the defense.

Next was the official review, which was a blind review. The thesis would be sent to relevant faculty across various universities nationwide.

If any stage was rejected, it would delay graduation.

Wu Wanying replied flatly, “With effort, you can achieve it too.”

Her roommate pouted but said nothing more.

Wu Wanying ignored her and checked her messages from Professor Li.

[Director Li]: Your defense is tomorrow afternoon. Elder Cai Zhongnian and professors from the International Medical Organization will attend. Be prepared and ensure no mistakes.
