Chapter 475: Stop Smiling So Scarily
Lin Fengmian’s eyes gradually became more determined. What’s the big deal about a Blood Fiend Trial?
Now that he had reshaped his spiritual roots and had access to Jun Wuxie’s resources, how could a mere selection process possibly stop him?
A thousand years ago, he had been able to slay the gods and buddhas who stood in his way. A thousand years later, he could do the same thing!
Even if it meant draining Shangguan Yuqiong dry, he would pass this selection.
Shangguan Yuqiong watched Lin Fengmian interrogate Jun Wuxie from every possible angle and felt a sense of admiration.
This guy is even more cautious and meticulous than I imagined, or maybe he is just more afraid of dying.
Even though Jun Wuxie claimed that he had no habitual mannerisms, Lin Fengmian kept observing him closely.
After all, many habitual actions were things that people didn’t even realize.
On top of that, Lin Fengmian had Jun Wuxie personally teach him his combat techniques and how to use his weapons.
With Jun Wuxie, the original, as his instructor, Lin Fengmian quickly picked up the skills and began to convincingly mimic him.
Lin Fengmian’s interrogation of Jun Wuxie lasted well into the night.
It wasn’t that Lin Fengmian didn’t want to ask more questions, but Jun Wuxie’s soul had been under control for too long and was severely depleted. Any more questions would have turned him into a fool.
Ignoring Yue Shuying’s protests, Shangguan Qiong stuffed the unconscious Jun Wuxie back into the White Jade Cauldron.
Yue Shuying, who really didn’t want to stay with Jun Wuxie, blew a bubble in the spiritual liquid and curled up inside it to sleep.
Shangguan Qiong said to Lin Fengmian, “You go to sleep. I’ll meditate.”
Smiling, Lin Fengmian reached out to wrap his arm around her waist. “The night is long, Sect Leader. Why don’t we do something… fun?”
Shangguan Qiong dodged his hand and snapped, “Lin Fengmian, what do you think you’re doing?”
“Of course I’m thinking of you!”
Lin Fengmian smiled mischievously. “Sect leader, everyone knows why I kept you here.”
“If my cultivation doesn’t improve, it might raise suspicion, don’t you think?”
Shangguan Qiong’s chest heaved with anger as she realized that she had fallen into this scoundrel’s trap.
“Lin Fengmian, don’t push your luck, or I will make sure that we both go down together!”
Lin Fengmian reached out and gently stroked her exposed shoulder, his hand slipping further in to soothe her.
“Sect Leader, don’t be so angry. I’m doing this for the sake of the Joyful Union Sect, too.”
“Didn’t you hear earlier? If I fail the examination, my status will plummet.”
“A fallen phoenix is worse than a chicken. Jun Wuxie has many enemies, and if I lose my position, I won’t be able to protect the Joyful Union Sect.”
“With my current strength, there’s no way I can pass the test.”
“But if you help me, I will improve by leaps and bounds!”
Shangguan Qiong glared at him and was about to push him away, but Lin Fengmian kissed her and held her tightly in his arms.
She immediately felt her strength drain away, leaning against him limply.
Lin Fengmian couldn’t help but chuckle softly. “Sect Leader, your mouth says no, but your body seems quite honest. Why lie to yourself?”
“Once is the same as twice. It’s not like a little more spiritual energy will make a difference. Think of it as helping your disciple. I promise I won’t tell anyone.”
He spun Shangguan Qiong around and fell onto the bed with her, silencing her protests with his lips.
The two of them engaged in a fierce battle of tongues, exploring the fertile land of untapped potential.
Lin Fengmian grasped two key points and focused on one central idea, guiding Shangguan Qiong step by step.
Shangguan Qiong, who had already tasted the sweetness, was swayed by his sweet words and couldn’t help but open the gates, welcoming him in.
Lin Fengmian smiled devilishly. “Don’t worry, Sect Leader. I’ll take full responsibility.”
After all, this was a collaboration involving billions, and dealing with a woman who could devour people without spitting out bones, Lin Fengmian had to be extremely cautious.
With the attitude of “no risk, no reward,” Lin Fengmian ventured deep into dangerous territory, braving mountains and rivers alone.
He believed that sincerity could move even the hardest of hearts!
Sure enough, Shangguan Qiong was moved by his sincerity, and the two engaged in a thorough and friendly exchange, reaching a long-term cooperation agreement.
Shangguan Qiong, however, soon realized that she had let a wolf into her house. This guy was pushing his luck, even suggesting that they engage in “import-export trade”.
Furious and embarrassed, Shangguan Qiong immediately used her charm technique and the Four Seasons Whirlpool Formation, instantly turning the tables and engaging in a fierce battle with him.
For a while, the two of them were locked in battle, seemingly ready to fight for three hundred rounds until dawn.
…
A thousand years ago, in Tianqiong City.
After a long journey, Luo Xue finally returned to the vicinity of Qionghua via a teleportation array.
As soon as she stepped out of the teleportation array, she saw three stunningly beautiful women standing in front of it.
The leading woman was tall and wearing a red slit dress. She stood in the middle and smiled at Luo Xue with a charming yet dangerous expression.
The woman on the left, dressed in a blue gown, was leisurely combing her long hair, her calm, autumn-like eyes fixed on Luo Xue.
On the right, there was a woman in an emerald green dress, her wavy hair tied up and draped over her shoulder, exuding a gentle and graceful aura.
Luo Xue exclaimed happily, “Senior sisters, why are you here?”
“Xue’er, you finally decided to come back! Your senior sisters have been so worried about you.”
The green-dressed woman, Xu Tingyu, rushed forward and hugged her tightly as if she was afraid she might disappear again.
The two of them pressed close together, making Luo Xue feel a bit uncomfortable.
Oh no, I’ve been corrupted by that guy Lin Fengmian.
“Senior sisters, I’m sorry for worrying you,” Luo Xue said apologetically.
“Silly Xue’er, why are you apologizing to your senior sisters?”
Xu Tingyu pretended to be angry. “But next time, you can’t just leave without a word.”
Luo Xue nodded, and Xu Tingyu gently ruffled her hair, smiling warmly.
“Let’s go back. Master must be getting impatient.”
Gan Ningshuang and Si Mufeng walked to her sides, as if they were afraid that she might run away.
Both of them smiled brightly and said in unison, “Xue’er, we’ve been waiting for you for so long. Let’s go.”
Seeing the terrifying smiles on her senior sisters’ faces, Luo Xue couldn’t help but feel a little scared.
“Senior sisters, stop smiling so scarily. It’s frightening.”
“Xue’er, what are you thinking? Your senior sisters are just happy. Let’s go back.”
Si Mufeng grabbed her arm and dragged Luo Xue out of the city, flying at full speed.
Gan Ningshuang and Xu Tingyu quickly followed.
Once they were outside the city, Si Mufeng smiled brightly and said, “Xue’er, I’ve heard that you’ve become a Sword Saint?
Luo Xue nodded, feeling a little guilty. “I got lucky!”
Si Mufeng let go of her arm and patted her chest, letting out a long sigh of relief.
“This is great! Now I don’t have to worry about accidentally killing you with a single sword stroke.”
Her smile gradually turned eerie, and without warning, she slashed at Luo Xue with her sword.
The sword energy was like a rainbow, filled with killing intent, as if it wanted to split Luo Xue in two.
Luo Xue’s hair stood on end and she barely managed to block the strike in time, her heart pounding with fear.
“Senior Sister Feng, what are you doing?”
Si Mufeng chuckled. “Not bad, not bad. You can block my sword now. Do it again! Let your senior sister see how much you’ve grown!”
She attacked Luo Xue relentlessly with her sword, showing no mercy.
Luo Xue’s scalp tingled, and she turned to run away.
“Senior Sister Yu! Senior Sister Shuang! Help!”
She knew her senior sister all too well – Si Mufeng never held back, and a single misstep could cost her her life.
