Chapter 782 Actor
The saying "beauty is a curse" is no joke. Even if he can hide in a corner and remain invisible, he will inevitably be targeted.
These sycophants are really something else.
However, considering that he was an eighth-grade, unassuming green lotus, Zhao Mu felt he could reluctantly let this sycophant know the harsh realities of society. Since he was begging to be beaten, he would naturally grant his wish.
"please!"
Romien stood with one hand behind his back, gesturing towards Zhao Mu.
Yo~
Quite polite.
However, Zhao Mu was certain that this guy just wanted to make a good impression on Yu Ying.
"Please~"
Zhao Mu smiled in response; after all, this was a kind person who had given him a gift, so it was only right to give him a smile.
"Humph, I don't know what it means."
Seeing Zhao Mu's calm demeanor, Romien smiled in a friendly manner, but inwardly he was extremely contemptuous. Most geniuses can instinctively sense danger, but he did not sense the slightest danger from Zhao Mu.
This means that the other party is just an ordinary Great Perfection of the Void Realm.
As for why he could be so close to Fairy Yu, it's most likely because he was very good at sweet talk.
"You all talk, I'll show you today that even among those at the Great Perfection of the Void Realm, there is a huge difference."
Uh-huh~
In an instant, a gray streak of light appeared and shot towards Zhao Mu. It arrived in a flash. It was Romien, who was pressing forward with his fist raised. The corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, full of confidence, as if this punch could crush the enemy.
thump~
Zhao Mu remained calm, raised his hand, spread his five fingers, and accurately met Romien's fist, blocking it.
Its power is terrifying. Even three ordinary people at the Great Perfection of the Void Realm would probably not be as powerful as this.
But Zhao Mu was no ordinary person at the Great Perfection of the Void Realm.
but.....
Zizzi~
The moment Zhao Mu received the punch, his feet slid backward as if plowing the ground, until he reached the edge of the stage. Just as he was about to fall into the green water, he used the momentum to somersault and land in the center of the stage.
Romien naturally stopped and turned around to attack Zhao Mu again.
"With just one move, the difference in skill was immediately apparent; this guy's power is simply not on the same level as Romien's."
"Perhaps it's just a test; you can't tell from just one move."
"That's true."
"No, no, no, look at him. Although he can put up a fight, he clearly seems to be struggling to keep up."
"It's a bit strange that Fairy Yu would get close to someone like that."
"..."
Those watching from the sidelines all cast doubtful glances, thinking it was all a bit of a fantasy.
Cang Ming smiled slightly. Yin Yu also noticed something, but he didn't care because in his eyes, Romyon was no match for him.
"Are you trying to save face for them?"
Yu Ying smiled slightly, thinking that Zhao Muren was quite nice, but since she was the one who brought this trouble upon herself, she had to think of a way to make amends.
"How about we team up with him?"
Yu Ying murmured to herself. Normally, she, Yin Yu, and Cang Ming, the three official team members, all came from their own families.
Cang Ming's organization of the gathering at Green Water Pavilion was actually just a way to find cannon fodder.
Boom boom boom~
On stage, Zhao Mu seemed to be struggling, but every time he was about to lose, he always managed to turn the tide and temporarily escape his predicament.
"What's going on with this guy? His luck is off the charts!"
Because she wanted to stop short of attacking, Romien didn't go all out; she just wanted Zhao Mu to back down and admit defeat.
But at this moment...
He felt he had to use some force, otherwise the fight would go on forever.
"Fellow Daoist, I'm about to get serious."
"Please!"
Zhao Mu's nonchalant reaction slightly annoyed Romien. This guy had been struggling to defend himself, and now that she was giving him a chance to admit defeat, he didn't appreciate her kindness.
Since that's the case, let him suffer a bit.
As for serious injury, Romien did not intend to do so, after all, she was brought by Fairy Yu, and she had to save face for her.
"Romyne is getting serious. His speed and strength have clearly increased by more than one level, and he has even begun to use martial arts techniques."
"But have you noticed that no matter how strong Romyon is, that guy always seems to be struggling to defend himself, as if he gets stronger when facing stronger opponents and weaker when facing weaker ones?"
"Wait a minute, is this guy pretending to be weak while actually being strong?"
"Hey, that's actually possible. After all, how could an ordinary person possibly earn the special attention of Fairy Yu and be able to enter her range?"
"That's it. Romyon will most likely lose both his wife and his army. Not only will he be humiliated by defeat, but he will also have to give up the eighth-grade Green Lotus."
"..."
As the battle continued, most people began to see through the trickery.
but......
Romyon, oblivious to the situation, believed that he only needed to exert a little more effort to defeat this struggling fellow.
bang bang bang~
The battle between the two sides lasted for a full quarter of an hour.
Zhao Mu suddenly felt bored, and with a rather clever move, he knocked Romien off the stage by a slight advantage, sending her splashing in the green water.
"Cough cough~"
For the final blow, Zhao Mu deliberately took a punch, staggering backward until he reached the edge of the stage, seemingly about to fall. After regaining his balance, he clutched his chest and coughed several times in front of everyone.
He then slowly walked to the other side, cupped his hands in greeting to Romyne, and said, "You flatter me!"
"..."
Startled by the green water, Romyne finally realized she'd been tricked, but...
"I am willing to admit defeat."
He didn't linger, simply tossing the Needleless Green Lotus to Zhao Mu, then leaping up from the green water and walking to his seat, becoming the second nobody after Zhao Mu.
That's so damn embarrassing.
"Fairy Yu, may I ask what your friend's background is?"
Cang Ming smiled and asked, "This is a good cannon fodder; I feel I can win him over."
Yu Ying smiled and shook her head slightly, saying, "Fellow Daoist Cangming, actually I didn't know either. He is a friend I met while traveling outside. We agreed to venture into the Langhuan Secret Realm together this time."
Cang Ming understood; this was a veiled reminder that people wouldn't be used as cannon fodder.
"Fairy Yu is truly blessed with good fortune. Why can't I meet such a powerful fellow Daoist!"
Cang Ming smiled with a hint of regret.
After obtaining the eighth-grade Unburdenless Green Lotus, Zhao Mu retreated to his own corner and continued to live a quiet, unnoticed life.
Although he could still gain a lot by pretending to be weak, he didn't want to do so because several of the people here were quite powerful. Even if he could defeat them, he would probably have to reveal something.
Not a good deal at all.
Moreover, to be honest, he had no confidence in defeating those few people who had been sitting still the whole time, and even felt that he was no match for them.
This unexpected gain is quite good.
