Chapter 1001: Enthusiasm
The danger Lan Xinyu and Su Xiu’er went through to break through previously had given Ling Chuxi a wake-up call. With the abundant Spiritual Qi of the Sacred Realm of the Sects and the help of the White Jade Crystal Heart, their cultivation speed had increased by leaps and bounds. As a result, their Inner Realm of Martial Path was far from able to keep up with the advancement of their Battle Qi.
It was fortunate that she had the power of True Essence to help them at the time. They had already been in a perilous situation. If they encountered such a situation again in the future, even she could not help them. Therefore, the only way was to improve their Inner Realm of Martial Path**.**
And to improve their Inner Realm**,** the best way was to fight. If those in Qianzhong Ridge weren’t too strong, it would be a great opportunity for them to train.
“The Qianzhong Ridge has a mixture of strengths. Most are as strong as the smaller sects, but some of the hidden experts are as strong as my grandfather.” Duan Feiyu replied.
“That’s good. We don’t need to take a detour. Let’s just go through Qianzhong Ridge.” Ling Chuxi was relieved.
If most were just about the same as other small sects, they should be able to deal with them with their current strength. As for those hidden powerhouses, they were already called hidden, so they shouldn’t encounter them so easily. How could they be so easily met? Moreover, even if they met them, they’d just have to hide since they couldn’t afford to offend them.
“Yes!” Lan Xinyu, who was usually afraid of chaos, was the first to cheer upon hearing Ling Chuxi’s decision. Su Yanhua and the others were also in high spirits.
“What are you guys so happy about? We’re on a serious business trip so don’t cause trouble for me,” said Ling Chuxi with a straight face.
“Oh.” Lan Xinyu’s spirits became a little dampened. If there was a person that was going to cause trouble, wouldn’t it be Jiang Wuhen? Since when did she cause trouble?
“Well, I do trust that you guys won’t be one to simply pick fights. But if a fight does happen, I hope you will rise up to the challenge and treat it as an opportunity to train and gain experience. Hopefully, you will be able to advance to the next cultivation stage by the time we get out of the ridge. If you run away, I’ll give you a good beating,” said Ling Chuxi with a smile as she tried to lighten the mood.
Duan Feiyu and Su Yizhi finally understood Ling Chuxi’s intentions. The Su family’s strength was not weak, but they lacked actual combat experience. They indeed needed to train properly, so they did bother to refute her.
Su Yanhua and the others became excited by Ling Chuxi’s encouragement. They were considered the favoured ones beyond the Sacred Realm of the Sects, but once they entered the Sacred Realm of the Sects, they had been afraid to show their true strength. In fact, they didn’t even know their true strength. Now, they finally had a chance to fight.
The group arrived at the foot of the mountain. Just as they were about to get on the carriage, they saw Gonxi Kuangdao and the others rushing over.
“Why are they here again?” Without waiting for Ling Chuxi to speak, Lan Xinyu was the first to draw her sword. She had just reached the realm of True Essence and had been looking for someone to test out her newly attained strength. She did not expect that someone would appear in front of her so soon.
Su Yanhua and the others were also excited as they drew their swords to welcome their opponents. Each of them had an aggressive and murderous look on their faces. If looks could kill people, Gongxi Kuangdao and the others would have been eaten alive by them on the spot.
Gongxi Kuangdao was shocked. Although he did have some small grudges with Golden Pill Sect, it was always he who was at a disadvantage. So, why did he need to face their hatred as if he killed a man and stole his wife?
He was not afraid of the strength of Lan Xinyu and the others, but now that they were under the same roof, he had no choice but to lower his head. If he accidentally angered Ling Chuxi, then the antidote would be delayed by another couple of hours, which only meant more torture.
