Chapter 970: Bad Guys, Looking for a Fight
However, regrettably, dozens of cultivators stepped forward one after another and injected a stream of immortal energy into the bronze mirror as required, but all ended in failure.
The atmosphere in the crowd gradually became heavy, and as more and more monks tried and failed again, a feeling of disappointment began to spread.
The scene became even noisier, with various questioning voices following.
"Is this bronze mirror fake? There won't be any abnormal movement at all?"
Someone in the crowd was the first to raise doubts, and these words immediately caused more criticism.
"Yeah, the little girl is not lying."
Another older monk echoed.
As discussions continued, the originally orderly crowd became restless.
Facing everyone's doubts, Yunxi seemed a little helpless. She tried to explain:
"Don't worry, fellow Taoists. Those who are destined to see this bronze mirror will naturally be moved. It's very fair."
However, her voice was soon drowned out by more questioning voices.
"Huh! Fair? I think you have already decided it. Are you trying to choose your lover based on this?"
Someone in the queue immediately snorted coldly.
Faced with such groundless accusations, the atmosphere in the crowd suddenly dropped to freezing point.
That frivolous remark was like lighting a barrel of gunpowder, instantly detonating the emotions at the scene.
People who were already feeling disappointed and uneasy because of their successive failures now seemed to have found an outlet and burst into laughter.
"Hahahaha...lover? This is such a funny joke!"
"Yes, I thought so too! It seems that we are not destined to be together."
"Young lady, shouldn't you give us a fair chance to compete?"
There were waves of booing from the crowd, mixed with laughter and jeers, making the scene even more chaotic.
Everyone seems to be looking for an excuse to release their dissatisfaction and frustration.
After hearing this, Yunxi's face turned pale instantly. She never thought that her sincerity would be misunderstood in this way.
As a disciple of the master, she was usually respected by everyone, but now she was being treated as an object of ridicule.
At this moment, her hands were trembling slightly and a hint of anger flashed in her eyes.
"enough!"
Yunxi finally couldn't help but roared, her voice echoing in the room like thunder, "You short-sighted people, don't you even have the most basic judgment?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the surroundings immediately became quiet.
It was only then that people realized that the little girl in front of them actually possessed the cultivation level of the middle stage of the Profound Immortal Realm. Such terrifying strength really scared everyone and they all stopped laughing.
Although doubts still existed in their hearts, no one dared to ridicule them easily.
"The very existence of this bronze mirror is to test the mentality of every challenger. It does not judge heroes by their level of cultivation, nor does it favor anyone due to personal feelings. If you think this is a game, then you do not deserve its recognition."
Yunxi's words were firm and powerful, and every word seemed to hit everyone's heart heavily.
She stood there like a statue, exuding unquestionable majesty.
After a brief silence, the crowd began to calm down, and some more rational monks began to reflect on their own behavior.
"Perhaps we should re-examine our attitude." An elderly monk was the first to break the silence. "Since this bronze mirror has chosen the most suitable person, we should respect its choice."
As the old man spoke, more people began to nod in agreement.
Yunxi took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
Just as the atmosphere gradually calmed down and everyone seemed ready to accept Yunxi's explanation, two inappropriate sneers suddenly came from behind the crowd.
Then, two young men in gorgeous costumes parted the crowd and walked slowly to the front.
They had cynical smiles on their faces, but there was a hint of disdain and provocation in their eyes.
"Oh, this little girl has quite a temper." One of them said frivolously.
The brocade robe he was wearing swayed slightly with his steps. It was obviously not made of ordinary material. "But, I heard that you are looking for your soulmate here. How about me?"
His companion agreed with him and said arrogantly, "That's right. If you want to find a lover, our Mr. Qu is very charming and handsome. It would be a blessing for you to fall in love with him in your lifetime.
I think we shouldn't test this bronze mirror. Wouldn't it be a happy ending if we just put it into the bridal chamber?"
The two of them sang the same tune, and it was obvious that they had come with bad intentions. Their behavior immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the people around them, but they did not dare to say anything. Some people even left quietly, fearing that they would be implicated.
But some people who did not know the truth began to discuss in low voices, while the more rational monks frowned, feeling that things were about to get chaotic again.
Faced with such provocation, Yunxi did not respond immediately, but just stared at the faces of the two quietly, as if thinking about how to deal with it.
After a few breaths, Yunxi finally managed to utter a few words:
"You are bad guys, you are asking for a fight..."
Although his voice was not loud, it was clearly heard by everyone.
Then, she moved slightly and instantly appeared in front of the two playboys. Her speed was so fast that almost no one could see how she moved.
Amid the exclamations of the crowd, Yunxi waved her hand lightly and neutralized the attack of one of the dudes.
Then, she cleverly used the opponent's strength and pushed him with her backhand. The man flew backwards involuntarily and landed steadily on the ground a few meters away, unharmed.
The other playboy wanted to try again, but Yunxi restrained him even faster. She only used one finger to make him feel powerless to resist her attack.
Yunxi lightly tapped her fingers, and a powerful immortal energy suddenly shot out, causing the magic weapon in her hand to fly out of her hand and fall to the ground with a crisp sound.
The whole process took only the blink of an eye. Yunxi's movements were smooth and natural, without any sense of drag.
The two playboys who thought they were quite accomplished were as fragile as children in front of her.
This scene not only made everyone present hold their breath, but also completely shocked the two people who were trying to cause trouble.
"The path to immortality requires both state of mind and cultivation." Yunxi spoke slowly, her voice calm and majestic, "If you don't even know the most basic respect and rules, how can you talk about cultivation?"
Although her words were not harsh, they were full of wisdom, and each word was like the sound of a bell, echoing in everyone's heart.
At this moment, both the older monk and the younger disciples were impressed by the strength and wisdom displayed by Yunxi.
The two playboys were extremely angry and lowered their heads, not daring to make any move.
"Now, please continue to wait and see what happens."
Yunxi turned to face the crowd again, her tone returning to its previous calmness, "I believe that soon this bronze mirror will choose the person it truly recognizes."
The noise in the crowd gradually dissipated, replaced by a solemn atmosphere...
