Chapter 1098: Admirable, Truly Admirable
His injury yesterday was not light, but the Gongxi clan’s cultivation mainly focused on body cultivation, thus their bodies were far stronger than ordinary people. After taking a pill and bandaging the injury, he would have been fine after sleeping for a night.
“We’ll talk about this when the time comes.” Ling Chuxi was also curious about the treasures in the ancient ruins, but she did not want the Golden Pill Sect disciples to take too big a risk. After thinking for a moment, she decided to first look at the strength of the other forces before making a decision.
“In addition to the four forces like Shadow Kill Gang, there are also some hidden experts and families in Qianzhong Ridge. Although their overall strength is not as good as the outside sects, the experts among them are definitely not that much weaker than the ancient sects such as Heavenly Star Sect and Cold Moon Palace. Those top-notch experts are even comparable to the experts of the five great sects. If you want to go to the ancient ruins, you must be aware of these people.” Zhang Shizhao added.
“Okay.” Ling Chuxi nodded solemnly. She had heard Duan Feiyu mention these hidden masters before, so she wouldn’t want to provoke them easily.
At this point, Zhou Kaitai and the others also had packed up and were already prepared to leave.
Zhang Yuhong was dressed in a green robe, holding a burnt-tail zither as he stood before the team. The injury on his face had healed a lot, and he seemed to be in high spirits.
“Why did you follow me?” Lan Xinyu was angry when she saw Zhang Yuhong. Lan Xinyu was still brooding over yesterday’s incident, upset that the one person she could count on as an expert to spar with would turn out to be such a weakling. He had caused her to miss another opportunity to use her skills.
Zhang Yuhong was not in a hurry to answer. Instead, he first tidied his clothes, held the zither in one hand, and stroked the string with the other as he half-talked and half-sang, “I am not talented but I am willing to go through thick and thin for my Lady, the sect leader… After… after…” As he sang with the strums of the zither reverberating throughout the room, his pair of cock-eyed, peach blossom-shaped eyes became half-lidded, as if he was attempting to be seductive.
Everyone suddenly felt goosebumps on their skin. They became drenched in cold sweat and felt their heads go numb.
“Speak in human language!” Lan Xinyu roared as she shuddered and resisted the urge to fly into a rage.
“I… I will… go… experience… Achoo!” Zhang Yuhong stopped stroking the zither and stuttered.
“Forget it, you should continue to howl like a ghost.” Lan Xinyu wiped off her cold sweat.
“Please forgive my rudeness yesterday. I have already changed my mind and become a new person. I hope that everyone can take care of me on this journey… as… as… as…” Zhang Yuhong continued to howl to the music of the zither.
Su Xiu’er and the others were already pale and on the verge of collapse. They could faint at any time.
“Stop! Just pretend that I didn’t say anything. Do whatever you want.” Lan Xinyu quickly stopped him. This singing was too deadly!
Jiang Wuhen looked at Zhang Yuhong as if he was curious and confused at the same time. This Zhang Yuhong was such a talent! Admirable, truly admirable! Someone who could make Jiang Wuhen, who had travelled far and wide, admire them was definitely not an ordinary person!
“Let’s go, let’s go.” Ling Chuxi couldn’t take it anymore. If it weren’t for Zhang Shizhao being his father, she would have kicked Zhang Yuhong out immediately.
The carriage in the courtyard was already prepared. Zhang Shizhao was very concerned about Sword Heart Gang. There were a few golden words carved on the carriage, but they were not ostentatious. Of course, the most eye-catching one was Jiang Wuhen’s banner, which said that it was the best Sword Heart Gang in the world. His banner fluttered in the wind imposingly. But the words were…a little ugly!
After Ling Chuxi, Su Yizhi, and the rest got into the carriage, the group headed towards the inner area of Qianzhong Ridge confidently.
What awaited them?
