Chapter 509 Triumphant Return (1)
In the end, the airship brought them to the site where the third exam would have been held.
This was a place where there was a giant split in the earth, it was a canyon in the middle of the ground that they couldn\'t see the bottom of, even with the increased eyesight that these people had as cultivators.
Standing in front of the cliff of the canyon were three people, one of which was someone that Lin Fan recognized.
It was the old man from the Qiao Family along with two other people who he didn\'t recognize. One of them was a young girl who only reached old man Qiao\'s chin in a kimono and the other was a tall woman with red hair who had a black eyepatch over her right eye, also wearing a pure red duster and nothing else.
When the two airships landed and the old woman came forward, the short young girl in the kimono came over to where the old woman was and said in an aggrieved voice, "Grandmother, you can\'t just take my turn like this. I was looking forward to this since it was my first exam."
The old woman revealed a smile and said, "Something came up, so we couldn\'t let you do it anymore. Instead, how about I introduce you to an interesting young man instead?"
The old woman had a sparkle in her eyes with a different kind of meaning when she looked at this young woman in the kimono.
How could she forget? She also had a granddaughter that wasn\'t dating anyone right now, wouldn\'t she also work for baiting Lin Fan?
Not to mention that Lin Fan seemed like a good kid, so he would be a good match for her granddaughter…
This old woman had been worrying about too many things lately and had actually completely forgotten about this, but seeing her granddaughter had completely reminded her of this matter.
The Qiao Family\'s ancestor on the side could see the look in the old woman\'s eyes and gave a cough as a reminder for the old woman.
The old woman looked at old man Qiao with a smile before turning to look at Lin Fan and saying, "Young friend Lin, come over here. I want to introduce you to someone."
On the other side, the people who came out of the other airship looked like they clearly couldn\'t accept the results that they had been told. After all, they were told that this was nothing more than a game, how could they have known that it was the final exam. If they knew, they definitely wouldn\'t have given up so easily.
So as soon as they landed, there were a few people that began arguing with the staff of the second airship, but the only response they received was to accept the results of the test.
Without any other choice, there were a few people who came over to where the old woman was standing, clearly intent on complaining directly to her. They didn\'t know who this old woman was, but based on how politely everyone else treated her, it was clear that she had a status that was above the rest.
With how many of them there were, even if she was from the Hunters Organization, she would have to at least listen to them and give them a chance since there were many forces behind all of them.
However, it wasn\'t the old woman who acted, rather it was the young woman in the kimono who came forward first.
This young woman in the kimono was called Mao Tao and she was also a hunter who was supposed to be the examiner for the third round, that was until the old woman who was her grandmother hijacked the exam and held the final realm. Her grandmother didn\'t even tell her about this until halfway through the impromptu final exam that she had held…
Still, Mao Tao loved her grandmother and seeing that these people had bad intentions, naturally she was the first one to come forward to stand up for her.
On the side, the old woman surnamed Mao poked Lin Fan with her elbow and said, "You\'re in for a treat. Just wait until you see Xiao Tao go."
On the other side, old man Qiao said, "That little girl, she really is something, but she\'s just a little too rough sometimes. Yi Fei is definitely better than a rough girl like her."
The two old people glared at each other and there were almost sparks that appeared in the air, but Lin Fan ignored it as he watched the young girl in the kimono walk over towards the people heading in this direction. He wanted to see just how powerful a hunter recognized by the organization was and if he really was at the same level.
Mao Tao walked right in front of the people coming over and stood there in front of them without saying a word.
The people that came over were all men and when they saw the young girl in the kimono standing in front of them, they couldn\'t help being surprised. However, when they took a closer look at her, they also couldn\'t help revealing a smile.
After all, Mao Tao was quite beautiful herself. She was actually considered one of the Five Flowers of Harmony City, so she wasn\'t at a level that below Qiao Yi Fei.
Rather she had her own charm because of how she was dressed and the way she looked. Instead of showing off her body, she was dressed in a rather conservative manner with the kimono covering anything and not accentuating her curves, but that worked in her favour.
Rather with her face that was perfectly sculpted along with that kimono, it was almost as if she was like a doll. A perfect doll that was beautiful from every angle one looked at her with her beautiful black hair and perfect white skin.
After being surprised, the young master personality in these people came out as one of them came up and said, "Hello beauty, do you mind moving out of the way. I want to have a word with the person behind you."
But before that person could even react, Mao Tao had already pulled out a whip.
With a single flick of her wrist, that whip wrapped around the young master who had tried to move her aside and tied him up in a shibari bind. The whip had gone over a branch of a tree that was nearby, so when she was finished tying him up, she also strung him up to hang.
The young master had a look of pain on his face that quickly turned into a look of pleasure.
Lin Fan couldn\'t help revealing a bitter smile when he saw this.
Based on the standards of earth, the best way to describe this would be gap moe.
This girl who looked like a perfect yamato nadeshiko was actually someone who was secretly a S&M queen…
It really was hard to accept if you didn\'t see it.
Of course, Lin Fan also knew what old man Qiao and old woman Mao were planning to do, but he also knew what kind of response would be waiting for him if he actually went through with their plans. He was more scared of what was waiting for him at home than of disappointing the two of them.
As soon as Mao Tao lifted up that one young master, the others all jumped back and pulled out their weapons.
She revealed a sweet smile as she looked at them and asked, "You were saying?"
They all trembled when they saw this sweet smile that she had, but they still had the power of numbers on their side and the forces behind them. Even if she wanted to fight them all, it would depend on if she was capable or not.
This was evident by how the one that she had bound up came from the weakest power out of all of them.
So they all turned to the young master who had the strongest backing and seeing them all look at him, he gave a sigh before coming out and saying, "Young miss, we\'re just trying to get an explanation on why we failed. Please don\'t make this hard on us. We have our family\'s expectations to think of."
Mao Tao didn\'t attack them this time, but rather she gave a cold snort and said, "You failed and you still don\'t know why? You really are incompetent."
When she said this, there was a dark look that appeared on the faces of the young master, but based on what she had done just now, not a single one of them said a thing to refute her.
After saying this, she turned to the old woman and said, "Grandmother, is it alright if I do that?"
The old woman revealed a smile as she gave a nod and said, "Xiao Tao, just do whatever you want to do. Grandmother will back you up!"
Mao Tao gave a nod before turning back to the young masters and asking, "You want another chance?"
At first the young masters couldn\'t believe what they were hearing, but then seeing that Mao Tao had changed her tone and was given them a chance, they all nodded.
Mao Tao saw this and then turned around, not forgetting to wave her hand at them while saying, "Follow me."
She came right up to the edge of the cliff and then right in front of them, she jumped right in.
