Chapter Eighty-Eighth: Who Wins, Who Loses

Chancellor's residence" Qin Luo'yan was stunned for a moment, then reacted, "Do you mean those teams participating in the boat race are all composed of adults""It's not all commoners, some are officia...The entire venue was deathly silent, save for the sound of "bang!" when Xuerli exploded.

That strange so-called pear blossom needle, the moment it touched the snow pear, exploded, flying out iron wires from within, which directly cut the snow pear into pieces.

Pear blossoms scattered in the air, and a faint scent of pear hung in the air.

This scene caused many onlookers' pupils to involuntarily shrink. This seemingly ordinary thing, when it erupted with such force in that instant, if it had hit a person, or their limbs... the consequences...

Everyone felt a chill down their spines, and when they looked at Qin Luo-yan again, their eyes held undisguised shock.

A seemingly insignificant little thing possesses such tremendous destructive power, just like a scholar suddenly transforming into a founding general who, with the strength of one man, single-handedly stops a million strong armies. It's a sight that leaves one astonished beyond words.

Yin Qi's brows furrowed, seeming somewhat disbelieving of the scene before him. He knew she was strong, but he hadn't expected her to be this powerful!

Wuchi stood up, trembling. He walked forward unconsciously, as if trying to get a better look at the shattered snow pear. The debris on the ground served as a grim testament to the reality of what had just happened. After a long time, his throat moved as if he wanted to say something, but he found himself utterly speechless.

Yun Tianqing unconsciously shook his head, seemingly unwilling to accept this cruel reality.

But Yun Tianzi's face turned pale and then flushed, but in the end, he was the first to come to his senses. He walked up to Qin Luoyan, bowed, and said, "You win."

After the simple three words, the onlookers finally realized what was happening and erupted in wave after wave of cheers.

"Won... actually won..." Wu Chi finally managed to speak. It turned out, he was actually this strong. No wonder he confidently bet on himself to win. He relied not on luck, but on his skills.

Today, although only a few people are present on the surface of this grand occasion, many powerful figures are secretly observing from the sidelines. As soon as the outcome of the competition is announced, figures in the crowd quickly disappear into the shadows.

It can be foreseen that after today, Yue Wuhen's name will spread throughout the major forces of Fengqicheng. Then those who attempted to buy her will come one after another and offer her olive branches.

But Qin Luoyan was not blinded by victory. She understood a truth, that even the most innocent person can be blamed if they possess something valuable. Even with her abilities, if she lacked self-protection, she would only become a piece of fat coveted by various powerful factions. As for this "fat," it had no room to resist. If handled improperly, it could end up being cut apart at their whim.

So, when everyone thought Tianjige had lost, Qin Luoyan suddenly smiled. When her smile faded, she said to Yun Tianzi, “Although you appear here as a servant, I know that the one who makes the decisions here is definitely you. I won, but it was by sheer luck. In fact, I have an unrequited request, and I hope you will fulfill it.”

She was polite and courteous, her words were humble and she put herself in a low position, so no one had any reason to refuse.

"No need for formality, young master. Please speak your mind." Yun Tianzi replied.

"Actually, I've done all this for a single purpose. I know that the Tiangjigu is the place where every craftsman hopes to learn, so if possible, I also want to join the Tiangjigu." Qin Luoyan clasped his fists and said.

Enter the gates of Tiangijia!

Just now, he slapped someone's face in broad daylight, and now he wants to join the Tianjigu At first glance, this makes people laugh uncontrollably. However, upon closer inspection, one can't help but wonder why not

A craftsman who had long looked up to the Tiangji Pavilion, went to great lengths to join it. It seems plausible, and besides, he won against the Tiangji Pavilion, which brought them significant shame. However, if he were to join the Tiangji Pavilion, things would be different. The face they lost would be doubled back to them.

This was the best outcome for Tianjigu, saving face and providing a graceful exit.

"You want to..." Before the word "beautiful" could even leave Yun Tianqing's lips, Yun Tianzi cut her off.

"Good! However, the young master himself possesses considerable skill. I'm afraid none of us could serve as your teacher. I will report this to the Master and at a suitable time, arrange for an elder from our sect to preside over your initiation ceremony."

"You said you would take me in, is that for real" Qin Luo'yan was still a little hesitant.

Yunttianzi took out a black metal plaque and threw it into her arms. "My words are final."

Qin Luoyan nodded, a bit of confidence rising in her heart about the person's identity. Someone capable of making such a decision must hold a high position within Tianjige.

With the recruitment from Tiangijia, she essentially found a patron. Even those who wanted to recruit her would have to think twice.

A contest, in which Tiangjige ultimately lost in the immediate sense but won the final face-saving victory. The only few families rejoiced while others were sorrowful, as it was decided by the wagers placed at the gambling house. Most people returned home regretting their initial decision due to losing their silver.

Yun Tianzi took Yun Tianqing and left first. With the protagonist's departure, the crowd gradually dispersed.

Qin Luo'yan originally wanted to take Wu Chi's carriage back to the city, but Yin Qi warmly invited her to a small gathering. Facing Yin Qi, Wu Chi didn't dare to have too many opinions, so she tactfully left.

In the Plum Blossom Garden, soon there were only a few people left.

Yin Qi dismissed the people around him before approaching Qin Luo Yan's side. He picked up the remaining iron wire on the ground, "I didn't expect Miss Qin to still make weapons, it's really impressive."

He saw through it, indeed.

"It seems I have been seen through, Lord Yin." Since her true deity had been recognized, Qin Luoyan no longer bothered to conceal it.

"How is Duke Wu Xuan… treating you" Yin Qi seemed to be intently looking at the wire, not lifting his head, yet he blurted out this irrelevant question out of the blue.

"Uh..." Qin Luoyan felt that this question was not something they could ask. He and she weren't even friends, were they

Yin Qi suddenly smiled, put down the wire and raised his head, "I was presumptuous. I just think that a girl like Luo Yan shouldn't be just a bed warmer."

This time, when he spoke of her, he replaced Qin Girl with Luoyan. The change in address indicated a shift in his tone.

"Some things, there's no right or wrong, it's just the way they are. Talking about it seems pointless." Qin Luoyan's voice didn't carry a hint of melancholy; her sadness would never be easily seen by others.
