I'm only one year old, what the heck is a Overturning System?!-Chapter 175 - 117 The Sassy Miss is Hard to Handle (Please Subscribe)_2

Chu Ming nodded slightly, his expression betraying some contemplation.

"The Left Minister once proposed to rectify the Jianghu Sect Holy Lands years ago; he must have had these concerns in mind."

The young girl named Wan Er added, "There should be some connection."

"Looking at the history of the Great Wei, those who have been both a Marquis and True Disciples of a Sect generally met tragic ends."

"Second Brother, have you read the ’Wei Dynasty Chronicles’? Do you remember the last one?"

Chu Ming thought for a moment, his expression animated as he replied, "Was it the former Duke Jingye, Zhou Guanwu, the True Disciple of the Flipping Heaven Dao from Wuliang Mountain?"

"Exactly him."

Holding the "Heavenly Pride List," the youth named Chu Chen asked with a puzzled face, "Didn’t he die at Beixiong Pass? You mean his death..."

"Silence!"

Chu Ming cut him off, glanced at the other people in the tavern, and gestured with his hand, "Continue to look at the changes on the Earthly List."

Chu Chen acknowledged with an "Oh," then flipped to the third page, "The third position is Lou Wushan from Wuliang Mountain, fourth position..."

Zhou Guanwu!

Chen Yi, who had overheard the conversation of the four Chu Family Disciples, silently noted the name.

He had also read the "Wei Dynasty Chronicles," which only recorded that the former Duke Jingye, Zhou Guanwu, had died at Beixiong Pass.

However, he had not expected Zhou Guanwu to also be the True Disciple of the Flipping Heaven Dao from Wuliang Mountain!

Moreover, judging from the words of the young girl named Wan Er, Zhou Guanwu’s death at Beixiong Pass implied many hidden truths.

This matched Chen Yi’s earlier speculation—the Old Marquis Zhou Tiance’s confrontation with their Duke Wuan lineage was related to that battle at Beixiong Pass!

Could it be that the person who caused the extinction of Duke Jingye’s lineage back then was the then Duke Wuan?

"Little Sword Immortal, I really didn’t notice before, but you have such potential and talent. The future Duke Wuan, huh?"

Hearing this, Xiao Xuanzhen immediately transmitted a sound to Chen Yi, with teasing laughter in her eyes and an exaggerated tone.

Chen Yi’s train of thought was interrupted, and he replied irritably, "Eat your meal."

"Yes, yes, yes, Your Excellency Duke Wuan, this little girl wouldn’t dare disobey."

"..."

Chen Yi glanced at her and couldn’t be bothered to pay her any more attention, refocusing his attention on the Chu Family Disciples.

Next to him, Hua Xianzi heard someone praising Chen Yi for the first time, but what caught her attention was the phrase "tragic end."

She looked at Chen Yi, who was calm, murmur a few words to herself, and didn’t inquire further through sound transmission, but simply kept these thoughts in her heart.

At this moment, Chu Chen, who was browsing through the "Heavenly Pride List," started exclaiming again.

"Seventeenth position, Chen Yuan from Wuliang Mountain, Absolute Blade Inheritor... He killed a Shaman from the Southern Barbarian Sect?"

"Second Brother, Chen Yuan is also the son of Duke Taiping of the Wuan lineage; his potential and talent is no lesser than that of ’Little Sword Immortal’, right?"

Chu Ming shook his head, "If his Sword Dao progresses further, perhaps he could be compared with ’Little Sword Immortal’."

The girl named Wan Er pondered and said, "A duo of talents within a single household, it seems Kyoto Prefecture is about to become lively."

"Wan Er Sister, it should be the three prodigies of Kyoto Prefecture, I’m optimistic about the Great Void Buddha Child reaching the top later on," another girl pouted and countered.

"Moreover, the Chen brothers’ strength is much less compared to the elder brother, but they managed to be on the Earthly List due to their younger age."

"Once they qualify for the Heavenly List, I’m afraid they could only be ranked at the bottom."

Wan Er glanced at her but didn’t speak further.

Chu Ming looked at his two sisters and silently shook his head, explaining:

"Wan Er is referring to the inheritance of titles; I’m afraid the nobility in Kyoto Prefecture would be happy to see chaos in the Duke Wuan household."

"I don’t understand, what do they have to gain from it?" The other girl continued.

"Qing Er Sister, it doesn’t matter if you don’t understand; the matters of Kyoto Prefecture won’t affect us in Jizhou Prefecture."

Hearing this, the girl called Wan Er couldn’t resist saying, "Second Brother, our concern is the interference by schemers, let’s not forget the scholars from various schools."

After giving it some thought, Chu Ming nodded, "If we can understand the situation, our father and the others are surely clear as well."

"Wan Er, matters of the state are significant; it’s best to keep discussions to a minimum."

He then gestured for Chu Chen to continue looking at the "Heavenly Pride List."

"Eighteenth position, Hua Xianzi, the Inheritor from Dan Peak Mountain of the Grand Void Sect. True to her name, she is quite beautiful."

Chu Chen turned another page, his eyes lit up, and he laughed, "Second Brother, this ’One of the Ten Taoist Immortals’ is also quite impressive."

"Just this portrait alone is a few times more beautiful than the previous Xiao Xuanzhen and Lin Xueru."

"Stop the nonsense, keep reading."

While Chen Yi was silently happy for his brother, he could not help but wink at Xiao Xuanzhen across the way, his amusement apparent.

Xiao Xuanzhen glared at him and transmitted, "What are you looking at? He mentioned Xue Ru as well."

The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.

Chen Yi was unbothered and replied with a smile through transmission, "Xue Ru didn’t hear it, won’t affect her mood."

"I’m not affected either and am very happy."

"You are."

"I’m not!"

"You are."

"I! Am! Not!"

After saying that, Xiao Xuanzhen launched a verbal attack.

"Little Sword Immortal, I don’t believe you weren’t angry when that girl earlier said your strength wasn’t good."

Chen Yi’s expression remained unchanged, and he transmitted with a grin, "I am stronger than you."

Instant win!

Xiao Xuanzhen: "..."

Her eyes grew more "fierce," and she flailed her fists under the table relentlessly.

If glares could kill, she would have slain Chen Yi numerous times already.

Hua Xianzi watched their expressions, guessing their conversation must have included her, and her face couldn’t help but show some embarrassment.

Even though she’d heard similar comments on Dan Peak Mountain, this was her first time encountering them in front of Xiao Xuanzhen.

Meanwhile, Xie Changle saw the expressions of the three of them and almost sprayed out the chunk of meat in his mouth, but he reacted quickly, covering his mouth and ducking his head.

Yet, from his shaking shoulders, it was clear how hard he was trying to contain his laughter.
