Recognize her as its owner?! Hearing those few words, almost everyone present wasn’t calm.

“What did you say? The Heavenly Square Cauldron has already acknowledged you as its owner?” A man, who looked like he was in his thirties, couldn’t hold it in and asked immediately.

Chu Liuyue nodded rightfully. “Won’t the Heavenly Square Cauldron recognize an owner every time it appears in the world?”

An extreme treasure like the Heavenly Square Cauldron normally found its own owner. If one could receive its recognition, that person could naturally become its owner. If they couldn’t, then no matter how hard one tried, it would be to no avail.

The crowd was dumbfounded.

They only wanted to find the Heavenly Square Cauldron’s whereabouts, but they forgot about this!

Recognize an owner… It already has an owner! Then, what were we so busy for?! 

“Wait! You said that you obtained this Heavenly Square Cauldron a few years ago. What evidence do you have?” another person asked doubtfully. “Who knows if you found this treasure in that mysterious gully?”

Chu Liuyue smiled. “Why should I lie about such things? To be honest, this Heavenly Square Cauldron played a huge part in me having two legendary fiends! If you don’t believe me… I can’t do anything either.”

The crowd was dazed. Oh right, we almost forgot that Shangguan Yue indeed has two legendary fiends—one red-gold heavenly phoenix and one legendary three-eyed eagle. The latter is even the clan leader! 

In the beginning, they also found it weird. Logically speaking, these two legendary fiends couldn’t serve the same master at the same time.

If there was the Heavenly Square Cauldron, it could explain a thing or two… It was a holy weapon after all!

“T-then…” Quite a few people exchanged glances, not knowing where to start asking in such a short amount of time.

At this point, Jin Di finally recovered his senses. As he exhaled loudly, he asked, “Since the Heavenly Square Cauldron has long been with you, you must’ve known that the Flood-Desert Northern Region’s news was fake from the start, right?”

The crowd was stunned in unison.

Chu Liuyue looked straightforward and nodded. “Yeah.”

Once he said this, even the academy elders couldn’t sit still. This girl actually long knew about it?! Then, she—

“Thus, I planned to follow the academy crowd and see what exactly was going on.” At this point, there were many things she didn’t have to hide anymore. Chu Liuyue swiftly chose to lay out her cards. “It was a pity that I fell ill and stayed in the academy, so I couldn’t go with them.”

“Luckily, some problems happened in the Flood-Desert Northern Region, so I had a second chance to go there. And that time, I did go over. The few elders that went with me from the academy can testify to this.”

Elder Hua Feng hurriedly nodded. “That’s right, that’s right! I initially didn’t agree back then, but this girl was very insistent, so I brought her along!”

At that time, he just felt that she was young, ambitious, and filled with curiosity. He never expected there to be so many twists and turns!

Chu Liuyue smiled at Elder Hua Feng gratefully.

Elder Hua Feng’s daze flickered as he hurriedly turned around and clutched the armrest at the side tightly. This… This is really too similar! 

He rubbed his brows and continuously warned himself, Two people! They’re two people! 

At this moment, Chu Liuyue didn’t detect the conflict in Elder Hua Feng’s heart. She honestly looked at the crowd. “Back then, I wanted to investigate properly after going to the Flood-Desert Northern Region before I made a decision. However, I didn’t expect the later incidents to happen as well.”

That man in his thirties—who spoke impulsively in the beginning—couldn’t help but yell, “You didn’t expect it? You’re planning to brush us away with such a sentence? Shangguan Yue, did you know that if you had spoken earlier, so many people wouldn’t have died?!”

Chu Liuyue’s gaze was slightly cold, and her gaze was like a blade. “So you mean that you want me to be responsible for the deaths of those people?”

“You have to take at least half the responsibility, right?!” The other party was clearly more agitated. “If you said it earlier, why would we end up like this!?”

“Hah.” Chu Liuyue suddenly laughed. “Forgive me for not agreeing with what you said.”

Her gaze swept past the crowd like a frozen sharp blade! It pierced straight to the bottom of one’s heart! “You went to the Flood-Desert Northern Region just to snatch treasures. That has nothing to do with me, right?”

What do I have to do with their life and death? 

“Besides, even if I said it back then, would you have believed it?”

Her light rhetorical questioning caused those people to be dumbfounded. They indeed wouldn’t believe an ordinary student from Ling Xiao Academy.

Besides, it was even related to the Heavenly Square Cauldron. Such a treasure with a teen… Anyone would think that it was a fairytale, right?! Who would listen?

Chu Liuyue tucked her loose strands of hair behind her ear, shrugged her shoulders, and smiled slightly. “I believe you know the logic of alerting your enemies better than I do, right?”

Was I supposed to put myself in danger for a bunch of unrelated people? Even they wouldn’t do it! 

“From start to end, the only people I wanted to save were those from Ling Xiao Academy. Everyone else’s life and death have nothing to do with me!”

Her one sentence was loud and righteous. She sounded harsh, but one couldn’t deny it.

The crowd was dumbfounded.

Suddenly, someone said in a cold voice, “You said that you have nothing to do with Black Demon Hole and that the Heavenly Square Cauldron had already recognized you as its owner a few years ago. Then, how could it be so coincidental that you’re the only one who successfully went into the mysterious region in the gully?! Shangguan Yue, do you really have an undiscoverable secret?!”

Chu Liuyue followed the voice and looked over.

That man, who looked like he was in his forties, had an average appearance and cold gaze.

Chu Liuyue was about to speak when she suddenly heard laughter that was as loud as thunder exploding far away.

“She’s from my Shangguan family. Of course, only she can enter my territory!” This voice was tremendous and was very clear when people heard it.

The crowd was taken aback, and all turned around to take a look.

Chu Liuyue’s heart also skipped a beat. She followed the direction of the voice and looked over.

A tall and burly figure rapidly descended from the skies! He was wearing a dark-green robe as he traveled a thousand miles in a step to walk across the skies! “At this point, I want to see who dares to bully her!”

The suppression was immense—it shocked everybody!
