The True Heiress Is The Real Bigshot

Nie Yi saw that someone had saved Ling Mianxi.

But he wasn't relieved, so he went personally, only to be shooed back by Ling Mianxi.

"Thank goodness," Jiang Ran also breathed a sigh of relief, "I never imagined, never imagined, that the Yue Family would produce a Sage."

It was one of the original Four Sages.

Nie Yi exhaled slowly, his voice deep: "I don't know why, but I have a bad premonition."

"Brother-in-law, don't say that, I feel the same," Jiang Ran scratched his head, "My heart is pounding, almost jumping out of my chest."

Qin Lingyan was speechless: "I don't think that's a bad premonition; it's probably your mating season."

They continued watching the surveillance screen.

There were "tap, tap, tap" footsteps, and a small figure squeezed in, then climbed onto the table.

Jiang Ran's view was blocked, feeling very annoyed and irritated: "Who are you, little girl?"

Sinai lifted her small head: "Your father's aunt."

Jiang Ran: "..."

Damn?

Sinai stared at the screen, first confirming that Ying Zijin wasn't hurt, then looked at the silver-haired man.

On the battlefield, Norton wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his dark green eyes icy.

Just as Louis lunged again, he took out a laser weapon.

"Sizzle!"

The laser pierced right through Louis's shoulder.

Because the injury was caused by a technological weapon, it healed quickly.

But it still had a significant impact on him.

"Chariot!" Louis fumed, "If we're fighting, why are you using a technological weapon?"

"Why?" Norton folded his arms, "If you want one, go find someone to make it for you."

Pausing, he smiled: "Oh, I forgot, this weapon in my hand is one of a kind on Earth; you won't find anyone to make it."

Louis grew even more frustrated: "Chariot, don't be arrogant!"

"Rascal, I want one too." Xize became interested, stretching out his hand, "Give me one, and I'll give you money."

Norton cast him a faint glance: "No."

Xize snorted softly: "Fine, if you won't, so be it. One might think that's your lover."

He didn't talk more with Norton and confronted Louis again.

Meanwhile, Sara still hadn't given up on the idea of killing Ling Mianxi.

But with Yue Fuyi protecting Ling Mianxi, Sara had no chance to get close.

Though confident she could kill Ling Mianxi, she dared not face the Sage's Judgment.

Sara gritted her teeth, waiting for the right moment to strike.

At that moment, a faint voice fell behind her.

"Where do you think you're going?"

Sara hadn't yet reacted when a strong force hit her.

"Bang!" She was slammed onto the ground.

Immediately, a foot stepped on her chest.

"Puff——!"

Sara spat out a mouthful of blood, her face suddenly turned pale.

Ying Zijin looked down: "Opening reversed position, truly impressive."

The girl's voice was calm, with no fluctuation in tone.

To Sara's ears, it was pure humiliation.

"Ying, Zi, Jin!" Sara couldn't see but could tell where the girl was from her voice.

She gritted her teeth, full of unwillingness: "Why? Why did you have to come back?"

If Ying Zijin hadn't returned, sooner or later, she could have been with Devil.

And now, all her glory had vanished.

All because of Ying Zijin!

Ying Zijin didn't answer, simply extended her hand, slowly lifting Sara.

"Now, you can be killed."

Sara's eyes widened in panic, struggling desperately.

But Ying Zijin gave her no chance to break free, tightening her grip.

"Crack!"

Sara's throat bone snapped.

This time, no Sage's power protected her.

Sara's head tilted, she fell to the ground, lifeless.

Fourth of the Twenty-Two Sages, the Sage Empress, fallen!

At that same moment, Fu Yunshen knocked the Tower to the ground.

The Tower spat out a mouthful of blood, paralyzed again, losing all ability to move.

Elsewhere, Zhou Yan, Priestess, Yao Guang, and Louis also lay on the ground, gravely injured and near death.

The Tower's face was extremely sour, unable to believe it.

Even though they activated the reversed position, they were still defeated.

But the situation for the upright Sages wasn't any better.

Qin Lingyu, Yu Xuesheng, Xize, and Norton had all suffered serious injuries.

Because they were fighting with their lives on the line.

Even though they won, they all lost their ability to fight.

Injuries caused by Sage-on-Sage combat couldn't be completely healed by medicine.

Norton's arm trembled slightly as he put the laser gun back in his pocket.

He tilted his head back, leaning against a tree, struggling even to breathe.

Yet his dark green eyes remained cold, devoid of any emotion.

The surroundings were utterly silent, eerily still.

So quiet it was terrifying.

By this time, the reversed Sages had all been defeated, yet the Sage Death had still not appeared.

"I've been pondering over one thing, a blind spot I overlooked, something I've never been able to analyze." Ying Zijin turned her head, her voice lowering, "Death knows how to help a Sage open reversed position, which proves his understanding of Sages surpasses all of us."

As a fellow Sage, she had read the book given to her by the Fool, yet didn't understand the reversed position.

How did Death come to know?

She had only just calculated one thing.

Once a Sage opens reversed position, they can be killed by an upright Sage.

Even though it boosts power, it's all drawbacks and no benefits.

So even if the Fool knew how to open reversed position, they would never tell her such a method.

"Hmm, if it's Death, there's no way he could know." Fu Yunshen's eyes deepened, "The only ones who know more about Sages are the original ones..."

Ying Zijin's gaze changed suddenly: "Not good!"

In the nick of time, she acted swiftly.

With a point of her toe on the ground, she dashed over like a thunderbolt, pulling Ling Mianxi behind her in an instant.

"Crack!"

Almost simultaneously, not even a quarter of a second later, a deep fissure appeared where Ling Mianxi had stood.

It was cleaved by a sword.

And clearly, the force of this strike was multiplied many times over compared to the earlier tornado slash.

It was just a casual strike.

Not using any real force.

"..."

The entire area fell into dead silence.

Even Yao Guang, who was lying on the ground, suddenly opened her eyes wide.

Her pupils contracted violently, her face full of disbelief.

And then, as if realizing something, Yao Guang's face turned completely pale!

Yue Fuyi looked at the silver heavy sword in her hand, her fingers slowly closing, gripping the hilt tightly.

After three seconds of stillness, she let out a soft chuckle before speaking: "Wheel of Destiny, truly worthy of the Wheel of Destiny."
