Ten years after the failed awakening, I became a god

Chapter 157 I am Wen Qingya, what do I have to fear?

Banquet Center.

Several people from Shenglong Hall sat together on the leather sofa in the center of the living room.

Originally, this banquet was just a small welcome party for the students of Shenglong Hall, so Ji Chunlu didn't invite many people.

It’s just that although Shi Yan’s identity as the new heir is almost certain, it has not yet been officially recognized.

Therefore, in order to stop gossip, some students from Qingyun Hall were invited.

The people from Shenglong Hall and the students from Qingyun Hall consciously divided themselves into two unclear factions.

Sitting in the middle of the sofa were Shi Yan, Lan Baobao, Lan Yin, and Wen Qingya.

Sitting on the left are Lan Beibei and Ji Chunlu.

On the right sat Wen Ling.

Except for Wen Ling, everyone said a few words of blessing to the newcomer Shi Yan, welcoming him to join Shenglong Palace.

Blue Baby and Shi Yan, the protagonist of this banquet, sat in the middle to liven up the atmosphere. The three people sitting on the left and right sides looked uninterested.

Wen Qingya has always been arrogant and seemed relatively quiet at this banquet.

Lan Yin was thinking about something, so she seemed to be lacking interest.

After all, if Shi Yan is really related to the symbiote's plan as she guessed, then it would be of great significance whether this person has a close relationship with Doumie.

Regardless of whether she is a victim with her own reasons, at least now she has enjoyed the benefits of the symbiote.

One more spirit, or a spiritual one.

This is something that many people will never be able to achieve in their lifetime.

"Monthly exam...assets...Princess..."

Hearing the familiar voice mixed with information about her, Lan Yin came back to her senses and looked at Lan Baobao and Shi Yan who were sitting in the middle and chatting happily.

"What are you talking about?"

Shi Yan heard Lan Yin's question and replied with a smile: "We were talking about how amazing you are, Princess. I just entered Shenglong Palace this year, and since joining, you've been the top scorer in both the monthly and annual exams. I still have a lot to learn from you, Princess."

Learn from her?

She smiled faintly and said modestly as always, "It's just luck. Before I came here, Qingya was always number one in Shenglong Hall. I think she's the one who truly deserves the title in terms of ability. You can learn from her."

Wen Qingya was sitting next to Shi Yan. When she heard this, she looked up at Lan Yin, but there was no interest in her eyes. Lan Yin looked at her, but did not see any emotion in her eyes.

Shi Yan seemed oblivious to the strange atmosphere between them and complimented her, "Miss Wen's strength is indeed obvious to all, but since you've arrived, Princess, you've been able to hold the top spot. Doesn't that only highlight your strength? In my heart, Princess, you're a very capable person."

Lan Yin: “…”

What's the purpose of this? To label her and push her into a place of no return?

Seeing the tense atmosphere, Blue Baby tactfully stepped in to smooth things over. "Qingya and the princess are both very capable people. We're all students of Shenglong Hall, and each has his or her own strengths."

Shi Yan, however, refused to accept Blue Baby's offer of clarification and said stubbornly, "That's definitely different."

Wen Qingya, who had been silent the whole time, turned her gaze away from Lan Yin and turned it to Shi Yan's face with interest after hearing this. She asked, "Oh, I also want to know, what's the difference?"

……

Shi Yan was not afraid of Wen Qingya's gaze and said confidently, "As far as I know, the results of each monthly exam in Shenglong Hall are divided into only two categories: first place and others."

Wen Qingya looked at Shi Yan with an unchanged expression.

Wen Ling, who was standing by, snorted coldly, "You know a lot about the affairs of Qingyun Palace and Shenglong Palace since you were in it."

Shi Yan's lips curled up slightly. He didn't respond to Wen Qingya and Wen Ling's questions. Instead, he turned to Lan Yin and asked, "Isn't this something everyone in Phoenix Terrace knows? But Qingyun Hall is different from Shenglong Hall. The rewards in Qingyun Hall are more generous, and I've heard they're not as good as those in Shenglong Hall."

Lan Yin glanced at everyone present, feeling a bit overwhelmed: "...I think so...I've only been here a short time, so I'm not sure."

Shi Yan's eyes sparkled upon hearing this, and he continued with a smile, "I also heard that the princess's reward for the last monthly exam was a crystal. I've never seen a crystal before in my life. I wonder if the princess would be willing to let me broaden my horizons."

Lan Yin: “…”

The crystal reward for the first monthly exam, the time crystal?

In the eyes of everyone present, that thing is not in her hands now. Why did she catch her alone to take it? Couldn't she ask someone else?

She shook her head. "I only have the crystal Qingya gave me yesterday. I can lend it to you."

"OK ."

"No."

Two voices sounded at the same time, and Lan Yin's hand, which was reaching into her clothes to take the crystal, stopped.

Everyone looked at the other person who made the sound, Wen Qingya, in surprise.

Wen Qingya didn't explain, but just repeated coldly: "Don't show it to her."

Shi Yan's eyes widened instantly, his face filled with disbelief: "Why?"

Wen Qingya remained silent, looking as if she didn't want to explain.

Blue Baby came to the rescue, saying, "Shi Yan, you didn't know this when you first arrived, but the princess's monthly exam prize for first place is also a crystal. But the crystal is missing. There are so many people at the banquet today, and Qingya must be worried that the crystal might get lost. As the main attraction, you'd be spoiled by unnecessary trouble."

The polite words were very nice.

Shi Yan could only respond aggrievedly, "Well, then, Your Highness, there's no need to show it to me. If I let you throw away the crystal just to satisfy my curiosity, then I'd be to blame."

Blue Baby's expression relaxed, and Lan Yin immediately pulled her hand out of her clothes.

However, the atmosphere didn't become cold due to Wen Qingya's ruthlessness. Shi Yan blinked his moist eyes and said, "Crystals are precious, so I won't join in the fun. When I was in Qingyun Palace, the highest reward for the monthly exam was only two spirit stones. But I'm not very skilled in the art, so I've never even seen a spirit stone before."

Ji Chunlu looked as if he couldn't bear to listen any longer. He took out two spirit stones from his pocket and placed them on the coffee table. He said to Shi Yan, "They're just two crystal stones. I'll give them to you. When you join Shenglong Palace in the future, you can receive a certain amount of spirit stones every month."

Shi Yan was touched. He carefully picked up the item from the coffee table and examined it for a while before putting it down and saying to everyone, "So this is the Spirit Stone. Come to think of it, I saw this Spirit Stone during the annual exam in the Federation."

Ji Chunlu seemed very interested and asked, "Have you seen it? Where have you seen it?"

Shi Yan recalled, "The identity I drew was the assistant of a small-time celebrity in the Federation. I remember this celebrity had a necklace like this. She said it was given to her by her boyfriend. At the time, I just thought it was beautiful and didn't realize it was a spirit stone."

"star?"

"Are there any awakened spirits among the stars of the Federation?"

"The people in the Federation are really petty. They got the spirit stones but didn't absorb them immediately. What's the point of wearing them around your neck?"

As soon as Shi Yan finished speaking, an unfamiliar voice sounded behind the crowd. Lan Yin looked up and saw that the person speaking was a little girl about ten years old. She was fair and clean, and looked somewhat like Shi Yan.

Shi Yan was startled when he heard this and turned around. When he saw who was coming, he stood up from the sofa and explained to everyone, "This is my sister, Shi You."

younger sister?

Families in the empire with bloodline inheritance generally do not have many children to preserve the precious spiritual bodies of bloodline inheritance.

In Shenglong Palace, apart from Wen Mo and Wen Ling who are twins on the surface, the only other person who is known to be a family is Lan Pingping and Lan Baobao.

But Lan Pingping and Lan Baobao's mother are not the same person after all.

Shi Yan has a younger sister?

When the little girl heard Shi Yan introduce her, she yelled with a sullen look on her face, "You are not my sister."

Shi Yan looked embarrassed and smiled bitterly, saying, "Children are ignorant, please don't mind."

Then she walked out from the front of the sofa and went around to the back of the sofa, holding the little girl in her arms and coaxing her, "Xiaoyou, this is not home. You have to be careful and don't lose your manners in front of the sisters."

Shi You angrily tried to push Shi Yan away, but when she tried, she found that he wouldn't move. Her face flushed red as she shouted, "You're not my sister. You're not. You're a thief. The position of heir to the Shi family belongs to me, and you're a thief."

Upon hearing this, Shi Yan quickly covered Shi You's mouth, turned around and explained to everyone, "Children, children's words are innocent, don't take them to heart."

Everyone on the sofa was silent.

Lan Yin looked at Shi Yan. It turned out that what he had said just now about the successor not being decided was true.

There are probably disagreements within the Shi family.

There is a story here.

But it must be said that Shi Yan must have received support from Professor Shi who was far away in the empire. After all, Shi Yan had awakened two spirits.

Lan Yin cast another detecting spirit on Shi You, showing that the other party had only awakened a spirit, and the level was not high, only level four.

Shi Yan wanted to take Shi You away first, but the other party refused to cooperate. The attention of the people at the banquet was originally on the few people in the middle of the sofa, and now everyone's eyes were looking here.

Shi Yan was a little dazed when he saw everyone's cold eyes.

Shi You, who was in her arms, took the opportunity to step on her foot and took advantage of the pain to run away, shouting as he ran: "You bad woman, you actually bullied me! I will ask my parents to punish you severely and whip you. Just wait and see."

Shi Yan's face was pale, and he didn't chase after Shi You. He just whispered, "Xiao You, this is someone else's home, please stop making a fuss."

Then he apologized to everyone on the sofa: "I'm sorry, I don't know who brought my sister here. She is usually very well-behaved, and today she should be..."

Seeing that Shi Yan didn't dare to chase her, Shi You put her hands on her hips and laughed.

"I will be more powerful than you in the future. My mother said that the Federation's Vision City is now open for the sale of spirit stones. Mother has already gone to Vision City to buy spirit stones for me. Once I absorb the spirit stones, I will be more powerful than you. Let's see how arrogant you, a thief, can be."

"Can spirit stones be bought and sold in Vision City?"

Ji Chunlu's voice suddenly rose: "How could it be? We just came back from Vision City after taking the annual exam and didn't hear about this."

Shi Yan's expression instantly turned dejected. "It's true. I heard it at home last night. It's just that spirit stones are incredibly hard to come by in Vision City right now. Before, you could buy one spirit stone for 10,000 Federation coins, but now you can only buy one for 100,000 Federation coins. That's a tenfold increase."

Ten times more?

Everyone's attention was focused on these four words, and their expressions varied.

Spirit stones can be bought and sold in Vision City, and the price of spirit stones has increased tenfold. Everyone in the hall has received this news.

Lan Baobao and Lan Pingping's eyes instantly fell on Wen Qingya, who was in the middle.

Lan Yin also looked at Wen Qingya. After all, the room full of spirit stones she had taken out from the research institute were now lying quietly in Wen Qingya's space.

Now the price of spirit stones in Vision City has increased tenfold. Will Wen Qingya choose to absorb the spirit stones herself or sell them back to Vision City?

She really wanted to know.

Wen Qingya could feel everyone's gazes on her without looking up. She could sense that perhaps today's banquet was not a welcome banquet for the heir of the Shi family and the new member of Shenglong Palace.

This was a trap set against her, and the target was the batch of spirit stones in her space.

After all, no one would invite a mischievous child to a serious banquet, and this child was not brought by Shi Yan.

When they were in Vision City, Lan Beibei and Ji Chunlu were obscured by Lan Pingping's spirit body, so they probably didn't know that she had obtained this batch of spirit stones.

Then she knew that there were only two left in this batch of spirit stones, Blue Baby and Lan Pingping.

Which of these two people could it be?

Lan Yin felt that the possibility of it being Blue Baby was greater because Lan Pingping had already revealed the spirit to her, which was related to gold.

But Lan Beibei, from entering Shenglong Palace ten years ago to now, she still doesn't know what the spirit that Blue Baby awakened is.

Those who hide the deepest often have big ambitions.

There are precedents of this in history.

But since the other party deliberately told her this information, it means that this information is indeed true. The price of spirit stones in Yuanjing City has now increased tenfold.

What should she do with the spirit stones in her hands?

The origin of this batch of spirit stones is unknown, and after absorbing a crystal last time, she has been promoted to level one.

The spirit stones did not have much effect on her, and she had not originally planned to use all the spirit stones in this room for herself.

Originally, I was planning to give part to Blue Baby and Lan Pingping, but now I think about it, not to mention Lan Pingping, Blue Baby is always wavering, what if the two of them are not on the same page with me?

Isn't that raising your own enemies?

Wen Qingya raised her head and glanced at everyone in the hall. She already had the answer in her mind.

She wanted to sell this batch of spirit stones at ten times the price in Vision City.

No matter who is behind today's banquet, the other party's goal has indeed been achieved.

But, so what? She is gentle, elegant and fearless.
