Chapter 885 - Establishing Might
“Alright, Elder Su. Don’t worry, I know my limits. If I can’t do it, I’ll give up,” Ling Chuxi said comfortingly, seeing how Su Yizhi cared about her. Although she had said that, Ling Chuxi knew that she had to win this battle. Given Wei Zhixuan’s greed, if he got his wish today, if more crystal mines were found in the future, he would surely find a way to have a share of it. The Golden Pill Sect would never have peace.
What’s more, not every crystal mine had crystal hearts. Even if other crystal mines were found, who knew how many crystals were inside them? If the reserves were not high and seventy percent was given to Wei Zhixuan, how could the Golden Pill Sect sustain itself? Therefore, Wei Zhixuan had to be defeated today to avoid any troubles in the future. This battle was to give Wei Zhixuan a lesson, and it was also to establish might!
The surrounding people had backed away, providing a large space for the battle. With the agreement established, everyone knew that the battle was related to the future of the Golden Pill Sect, so they were a little nervous.
Ling Chuxi and Wei Zhixuan walked to the middle of the open space and stood facing each other.
“Draw your sword,” Ling Chuxi said to Wei Zhixuan, holding the hilt of her Luo Chen Sword in her hand.
“Little girl, seeing that you are being sensible, I’ll be merciful later.” If Su Yizhi had been the one fighting, Wei Zhixuan would have been worried. After all, his age was still there for show. However, seeing Ling Chuxi rush to take his place, Wei Zhixuan felt relieved. Judging by her age, how strong could she possibly be?
“You don’t have to be merciful. Use your full strength, or else you may not be convinced if you lose,” Ling Chuxi said arrogantly.
“Hmph, you clearly have no common sense.” Wei Zhixuan drew his sword angrily.
Although Ling Chuxi’s words were arrogant, she did not dare be careless. With a light flick, the Luo Chen Sword slipped out of its sheath, emitting a slight rumbling groan.
The two held their sword hilts. Although they didn’t immediately make their moves, the air surrounding them became heavy.
The disciples of the Su family stared closely at the two, not even daring to breathe too loudly in case it affected Ling Chuxi’s focus.
“Jiang Wuhen, do you think Chuxi can win?” Su Xiu’er was wringing her hands as she asked Jiang Wuhen nervously. When she saw Jiang Wuhen earlier, Su Xiu’er had hurried over to support him. Jiang Wuhen also leaned on her shoulder, as if he was seriously injured.
“Do you distrust her that much?” Jiang Wuhen asked teasingly.
“It’s not that I don’t trust her, it’s just that I’m a little worried,” Su Xiu’er admitted. This was the common perception among the Su family disciples. Although Ling Chuxi had already demonstrated her shocking cultivation, winning their respect and becoming their role model, they still had a bit of doubt because Ling Chuxi was around their age. In their opinion, Ling Chuxi’s cultivation was still lower than Su Yizhi’s, so naturally they felt worried.
“If you really trust your friend, then there is nothing to worry about.” Jiang Wuhen patted Su Xiu’er on the shoulder. It was obvious that he was extremely confident in Ling Chuxi.
“Alright, I understand.” In the past, if Jiang Wuhen dared to put his hands on Su Xiu’er, he would immediately have been slapped to the moon. But now, hearing Jiang Wuhen, Su Xiu’er actually calmed down.
Among all the people that were present, there were two beings that were not interested in the battle. Of course, they were Little White and Little Red, who knew every detail about Ling Chuxi. After everyone arrived, Little White trotted over leisurely, while Little Red was carried over by Xiao Rou. Since Little Red was bullied so often, seeing Little White was akin to a mouse seeing a cat. Of course, he dared not let Ling Chuxi hold him.
