Chapter 489 - You Have Overestimated Her

What was with that vision of that ancient sword piercing through darkness? And what was going on with that obscure vision of that ethereal figure? Clenching the Luo Chen Sword, Ling Chuxi thought about the stream of odd spiritual consciousness in her sword. If she remembered it correctly, it should be the second time, no, the third time this sword had saved her.

If Ling Chuxi was still doubtful of the stream of spiritual consciousness in the Luo Chen Sword in the past, then this time she was sure that within the Luo Chen Sword, there was indeed a hidden sword spirit. It was just that she did not know the reason why the sword spirit did not seem to be whole and was not entirely awakened.

Ling Chuxi caressed the hilt of the sword and lamented within her heart. She knew that she had walked along the path before the ghost door earlier on. The veiled woman before her really had a level of cultivation that was too terrifying.

What kind of a technique did she use just now? Ling Chuxi had previously heard that in this world, there was a strange technique that enables one to harm another person’s mind without any tangible evidence of it having taken place, but she had only thought that it was just a rumor. It was only today that she found out that there really was such a thing. However, it was really too incomprehensible.

Recalling what happened earlier on, Ling Chuxi still felt a lingering fear in her heart. However, she also felt more anger the more she thought about it. The two of them had just met for the first time, but just because they were on different sides, that woman had actually used such despicable means to scheme against her. One could easily imagine how cruel this young maiden was by this. Totally different from her outward appearance!

Ling Chuxi put her feelings aside and looked at that lady angrily. Seeing clarity reappearing in Ling Chuxi’s eyes, a hint of surprise flashed across the lady’s eyes.

The two of them looked at each other and although neither one spoke and both of their expressions remained as calm as still waters, their gazes resembled the blades of swords clashing with flashing sparks unbeknownst to others. Neither one took even half a step back in retreat. Having experienced the attack on her mind earlier, Ling Chuxi now knew to keep her mind guarded and therefore was no longer affected.

Finally, that lady reined in her gaze and continued walking into the depths of the valley with Qiu Gaohe and the rest of their group.

“Hmph, what’s the need to even pretend? A person who engages with Life Transformation Hall is definitely not a good person.”

“Indeed. How pretentious to try and act all mystifying.”

“First Grandfather, who is she? She looks very cocky and the people of Life Transformation Hall seem to be very afraid of her.” It was only once the Life Transformation Hall group was out of earshot that Su Yanhua and the rest of the Su family members start speaking.

Ling Chuxi did not say a word. Everything that just happened had felt as though it took place over an extremely long period to her in her mind, but it in actuality such events had taken place over the duration of no more than a few moments. There was no one who had noticed her odd situation, but Ling Chuxi knew that this woman was no simple foe. It was fearful that this Sword Pill Meeting would not be that simple either. Resurrection Hall wanting to obtain victory so aggressively was definitely something that was extraordinarily challenging.

However, so what! She would definitely win, and furthermore, she would definitely take revenge and wash away the shame she felt. Today’s scheme against her was now a personal matter and she definitely needed to repay it!

“Let’s go,” said Su Yizhi to Ling Chuxi before they both walked towards the courtyard.

Ling Chuxi knew that Su Yizhi wanted to speak to her alone and thus nodded and followed him.

“The technique she used just now is called the Sword Heart Soul Breaking Technique. Amazing isn’t it?” After they walked into the back courtyard and sat down, Su Yizhen asked Ling Chuxi directly about the matter.

Ling Chuxi was stunned. She thought that no one else had noticed, but after hearing his words, she realized that Su Yizhi had also noticed.

“It wasn’t just amazing. If I wasn’t on guard beforehand, perhaps I would never even have been able to awaken again,” said Ling Chuxi with a bitter smile. She did not reveal the secret of the Luo Chen Sword. Such matters were best kept to herself without letting too many people know.

“You have overestimated her,” replied Su Yizhi, shaking his head.
