I'm Already A Great Emperor, And The System Wants Me To Be The Heroine's Lackey? - Chapter 45

The people on the platform also caught a faint whiff of the stench, and they all frowned, casting glances at Fairy Miao Yin.

An elder from the Five Elements Sect, not mincing words, sarcastically commented, “Fairy Miao Yin, your disciple is truly careless. With this smell, it feels like even my spiritual energy is stagnating.”

The elder of the Five Elements Sect spoke very tactfully and was very cultured. He seemed to be a fastidious person.

Fairy Miao Yin closed her eyes, pretending not to hear, and kept her lips tightly sealed, not speaking.

The Five Elements Sect elder, seeing that Fairy Miao Yin continued to ignore him, grew even angrier and addressed Jun Jiuxiao, “Holy Son, Lin Chen’s presence here, with such an unbearable stench, is affecting everyone. To avoid impacting the upcoming competition, I suggest expelling Lin Chen.”

Fairy Miao Yin could no longer pretend not to hear. If Lin Chen were expelled, the Nine Suns Sect’s disciples would have no standing in the Holy Land in future events.

Moreover, Lin Chen was her disciple. If he were expelled, Fairy Miao Yin would lose face.

So she hurriedly said to Jun Jiuxiao, “Holy Son, expelling him just because of his smell isn’t appropriate. I hope the Holy Son can give Lin Chen a chance. After today’s competition, I will definitely ensure he removes the odor and doesn’t affect others anymore.”

Jun Jiuxiao smiled and said, “It’s alright, Fairy Miao Yin. There’s no need to be anxious. According to the rules, Lin Chen hasn’t violated any regulations, so the Holy Land won’t expel him.”

He then addressed the elder from the Five Elements Sect, “Elder Ma, Lin Chen is young and carefree; we can understand that. Fairy Miao Yin has already promised to have Lin Chen clean himself up when he returns. We should give young people more chances.”

Elder Ma and Fairy Miao Yin both bowed slightly to Jun Jiuxiao, showing their compliance.

Fairy Miao Yin felt relieved that Jun Jiuxiao had not heeded Elder Ma’s suggestion to expel Lin Chen.

However, she also thought to herself that if Lin Chen still smelled this bad, she wouldn’t allow him to leave the sect anymore. It was just too embarrassing, and she’d have to apologize on his behalf everywhere. She was beginning to regret taking Lin Chen as a disciple.

The time had come, and no one spoke further. Everyone quietly turned their attention to the ongoing matches on the stage.

The elders or sect leaders of each affiliated sect hoped their disciples would make it into the top ten, bringing honor to their sect.

Jiun Jiuxiao, however, had no interest in watching these cannon fodder disciples compete. He returned to his mind to communicate with 2233.

“Don’t you have the main plot for the male lead? I see that those systems in novels usually have complete storylines.”

【Host, I originally had the plot, but due to the main system suddenly cutting off contact, many faults have occurred here, resulting in the loss of much data.】 2233 said cautiously, worried that Jun Jiuxiao might be displeased.

Jiun Jiuxiao looked down on 2233, thinking it was a useless system—aside from exchanging Earth’s delicacies for him, it had no other function.

It might as well stop calling itself a system and just be called a food vending machine.

“Then show me the male lead’s data again.” Jun Jiuxiao decided to review the male lead’s information once more.

2233 obediently retrieved the male lead’s data for Jun Jiuxiao to review, excitedly adding, 【Host, I’ve added the male lead’s cultivation techniques! I managed to fix some of the glitches these past few days, so now you can see both the male and female leads’ primary cultivation techniques.】

Jiun Jiuxiao noticed that, sure enough, the main cultivation technique listed for the male lead Lin Chen was the “Devouring Fire Technique.”

The name suggested that it involved devouring fire. If that was the case, how could Ji Lanqing, who possessed the Red Lotus Karmic Fire, possibly be a part of the male lead’s harem? They should be enemies instead.

Could it be that Ji Lanqing was so hopelessly in love that she willingly offered her Red Lotus Karmic Fire to Lin Chen?

As this possibility crossed his mind, Jiun Jiuxiao narrowed his eyes at Lin Chen, wondering if he should just send him on his way now.

He glanced at Ji Lanqing beside him, who was single-mindedly attending to him and hadn’t spared a glance at anyone else. He decided to wait and see. If Ji Lanqing showed any interest in Lin Chen, Lin Chen shouldn’t blame him for sending him on his way early.

After all, who told Lin Chen to have the audacity to be the male lead in his world? And to even dare to compete with him for someone?
