#18 - Chapter 18 Jiang Ning's Counterattack

A group of three, two women and one man, approached Jiang Ning.

The one speaking was a woman in a red dress, with a pretty face.

The other woman, dressed in white, had skin like congealed fat, curved eyebrows, and a body of ice and jade.

Her unparalleled beauty made the world lose its color.

It was Wang Youning, the famous and proud daughter of Xuanhuang World.

The other man, dressed in a green Daoist robe, with a heroic bearing and an arrogant face, was the youngest son of the Taixuan Holy Land, Gu Jinghong.

A top genius who had cultivated to the peak of the Wu Ju realm at the age of thirty.

However, compared to Wang Youning, the gap was obviously quite large. (Wang Youning modified to Wu Ju realm, Faxiang realm is too far-fetched.)

He had been to the Stele Forest once before, and according to the rules, Taixuan disciples only had one chance to come.

However, there are always privileges in this world.

This time, he came thanks to his Holy Lord father's connections.

His real intention was elsewhere; he came because Wang Youning was coming.

Jiang Ning ignored them and continued to wipe his stone tablet.

The more you pay attention to these proud children of heaven, the more arrogant they become in front of you.

"Hey, are you deaf? Didn't you hear me?"

The woman in red said shrilly, unwilling to let it go.

Helpless, Jiang Ning had to respond, "Greetings, Senior Brother and Senior Sister of the Taixuan Holy Land."

Only then did Jiang Ning take a good look at Wang Youning.

She was indeed breathtakingly beautiful, aloof and stunning, worthy of being the famous goddess of Xuanhuang.

However, Jiang Ning did not take this kind of beauty to heart.

He only wanted to become a Saint, an Emperor, and even experience the scenery above the Emperor realm.

Women would only affect his cultivation speed.

"Oh, so you're Jiang Ning?"

"You're quite bold, daring to trifle with Youning's sister. Break your arms and admit your mistake."

Gu Jinghong looked at Jiang Ning faintly, with an arrogant expression.

Now that he was pursuing Wang Youning, he naturally wanted to show off.

With his status, let alone a deposed crown prince, even the crown prince of Great Xia could be deposed if he wanted to.

The Great Xia Dynasty was just a dog raised by his Taixuan Holy Land.

If the master wants your life, how dare you refuse?

"Crap, I didn't expect trouble to come."

Jiang Ning frowned.

Although he wasn't afraid of Gu Jinghong.

However, if he made a move, he would expose his strength, and then he would be forced to leave the ancestral land.

Then he wouldn't have so many supernatural powers and cultivation methods to comprehend.

"Huh?" Gu Jinghong raised an eyebrow and shouted sternly, "Didn't you hear me?"

"Letting you break your own arms is already the greatest kindness."

If it weren't for Wang Youning's sake, he wouldn't even bother to look at such an ant-like cripple.

Even saying a word to him would be demeaning.

The woman in red quickly echoed, "You cripple, didn't you hear Senior Brother Jinghong's words?"

"Break your arms, the greatest kindness?" Jiang Ning sneered in his heart.

How could he possibly break his arms? Even if he had to expose his strength, he would make a move.

The Taixuan Holy Land had brought three Celestial Realm experts.

With the invincible spirit corpse and the Black and White Demons, Jiang Ning was not afraid at all.

Besides, in the most dangerous moment, he could use the Qingtu cheat, and even a Saint would have to fall.

"Senior Brother, he didn't trifle with my sister, so don't make things difficult for him."

At this moment, a ethereal voice like clouds and smoke suddenly sounded.

It was Wang Youning, the proud daughter of heaven, who spoke.

Her voice was clear and cold, but pleasant to hear, making people feel like they were bathed in the spring breeze.

"Junior Sister, how do you know he didn't trifle with Lingyan?"

Gu Jinghong looked at Wang Youning.

Jiang Ning also looked at her curiously, wanting to know the reason.

"The look in his eyes when he looked at me was not the least bit turbid, but clear and bright."

"My beauty is naturally clear, and to be able to maintain clarity when seeing me, how could he possibly have lewd thoughts towards Lingyan?"

Wang Youning said leisurely.

Jiang Ning was stunned and looked at this proud daughter of heaven in shock.

This woman is too confident.

"Since Junior Sister says you didn't trifle with Lingyan, then get out of here quickly, and don't delay us from comprehending the inheritance in this Stele Forest."

"It's a pity, you cripple, you'll never have a chance to comprehend it in your life, you only have the qualification to wipe the stone tablets."

Gu Jinghong smiled contemptuously and scolded Jiang Ning to leave.

If Wang Youning hadn't spoken, he would have killed him even if he was innocent.

He absolutely couldn't lose face; even if he was wrong, he was right.

Seeing Gu Jinghong's contemptuous attitude and repeated ridicule, even Jiang Ning, with his good temper, couldn't bear it anymore.

So he replied faintly, "Although I am a cripple and cannot comprehend this inheritance,"

"You are not talented enough and cannot comprehend the inheritance in the stone tablet either."

As soon as these words were spoken, it was like detonating a powder keg.

Gu Jinghong's face instantly turned very ugly.

He, Gu Jinghong, the famous Xuanhuang JInghong Sword, the Taixuan Holy Land senior brother, was actually not talented enough?

"Jiang Ning, if you want to live, apologize to Senior Brother."

Wang Youning was saving Jiang Ning's life.

She was very clear about Gu Jinghong's vindictive personality.

"Senior Brother's talent is one of the best in our Holy Land. How dare you say he's not talented enough?"

The woman in red quickly said sternly.

"Whether he's talented enough or not, we'll know if we try."

"I bet you can't even comprehend the worst earth-grade cultivation method or battle skill."

Jiang Ning smiled calmly.

Wang Youning shook her head. This former Great Xia Crown Prince insisted on courting death, so she could only let him.

"Okay, if I can comprehend it, I'll use your life to apologize."

Gu Jinghong said sternly.

Jiang Ning said, "If you can't even comprehend a low-grade earth-grade cultivation method, you must kneel down and kowtow."

"Okay." Gu Jinghong agreed without even thinking.

Last time he came, he comprehended a heaven-grade high-grade battle skill, so he was naturally full of confidence.

Gu Jinghong selected a stone tablet and injected his spirit into it.

Jiang Ning secretly instructed Bai Sha to take action.

A terrifying mental shock attacked Gu Jinghong.

"Ah!"

Gu Jinghong screamed and was knocked away.

"Pfft." A mouthful of blood spurted out.

"How is this possible?" He looked incredulous.

Even Wang Youning and the woman in red looked surprised.

Wang Youning stepped forward to look at the stone tablet.

She revealed an unbelievable voice, "This... this is just a low-grade earth-grade battle skill, 'Canglang Swordplay'. How could Senior Brother not be qualified to comprehend it?"

Hearing this, Gu Jinghong was even more struck, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.

"I absolutely don't believe it!"

Gu Jinghong went crazy and tried several more times.

He was knocked away and spat out blood every time.

Seeing this, Wang Youning quickly stopped him.

If this continued, Gu Jinghong might become an idiot.

"How is it? Now you know you're not talented enough, right?"

Jiang Ning smiled mockingly.

"Are you playing tricks?"

Gu Jinghong said angrily.

Jiang Ning smiled faintly, "The stone tablet is made with Jiang Clan's secret method. Even Celestial Realm experts can't play tricks. How can I, a cripple, play tricks?"

"Fulfill the bet."

Gu Jinghong's face flushed red. Could it be that he, the proud son of the Holy Land, was going to kneel down to a cripple?
