Chapter 952: The Right Way To Shut Up, The Strongest Vengeful Soul In Weeping Phantom Ridge

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

An ugly pock-faced girl transformed into a beautiful lady and revealed herself to be the Guqin Crown’s daughter.

The dramatic turn of events left everyone bedazzled.

Many of them regretted their cold shoulders earlier, including the Saber Lord.

Chu Kuangren was a little surprised. The girl whom he casually saved turned out to be someone with a powerful background.

On the other hand, the Sword Crown behind Chu Kuangren suddenly remembered something. He looked at the lady and said, “She really looks like her.”

He was once the famed Sword Crown, so it was only natural that he had seen the Guqin Crown before. Compared to the rivalry between him and Saber Crown, he had a stronger relationship with the Guqin Crown.

“Saber Lord, as the daughter of the Guqin Crown, I forbid you from picking a fight with this brother here,” Xue Qinxin said.

Her determined look made everyone regret it more, and their gaze at Chu Kuangren started to show jealousy.

They believed Chu Kuangren had won big time by saving the daughter of Guqin Crown.

Judging from Xue Qinxin’s reaction, she should be a newbie in the cultivation world. One would easily win her heart with a little effort.

Should that happen, the lucky guy would rise to the peak easily.

The more the crowd thought about it, the more jealous and annoyed they

were.

They regretted not helping her earlier.

It was an easy favor, yet they let it slip into someone else’s hand.

Jealousy soon turned into hatred.

Nevertheless, Chu Kuangren did not think much of it.

The daughter of Guqin Crown might sound like an amazing title, but even the Sword Crown, who was at the same rank as the Guqin Crown, was his follower.

The daughter of Guqin Crown was nothing to him.

“Saber Lord, let’s put the challenge aside first.”

Hui Fa then came to reason with the Saber Lord.

Unlike the others who wished to befriend Xue Qinxin, he intervened because they were still in the Weeping Phantom Ridge, and if they spent too much time on Chu Kuangren, it might delay his plan.

“Hmph! Punk, consider yourself lucky this time.” The Saber Lord took a deep breath and retracted his aura.

The Sword Crown behind Chu Kuangren chuckled softly with a shake of his head. “Ignorant junior. You are lucky to have saved your own skin.”

“Master, why didn’t you do anything?”

The Sword Crown asked Chu Kuangren.

“Oh? Because there is something more interesting than him. The Saber Lord is like an ant to me. I can squash him whenever I want, and I don’t want to startle that particular someone, do I?”

Chu Kuangren said with a smile as he looked at Hui Fa and his group was walking further ahead.

The Sword Crown pondered upon hearing his words.

With that, the crowd continued forward.

Ever since Xue Qinxin revealed her true identity, the atmosphere within the party changed. A lot of cultivators started to pay attention to her and even tried to flatter her.

“Miss Xue, I have several pills that can replenish Emperor qi. I saw you consumed a lot of it back then. Do you need some?”

“Miss Xue, this is a fragment of an Immortal Weapon, and it can be refined into Immortal Metal. Wait here. I’ll get more for you.”

“Be careful, Miss Xue! I’ll deal with this vengeful soul!”

A similar situation repeated itself multiple times.

Some of the female cultivators in the party had sulky and disdainful looks on their faces.

Hmph! Men!

Xue Qinxin knew why the sudden change of attitude from the other guys, so she rejected every single offer and ignored them.

She glued her eyes on Chu Kuangren, and they were filled with curiosity.

Ever since she revealed her identity, all Chu Kuangren said to her was thank you, and that was it. He did not even bother to look at her.

He was the same while she was in disguise.

Now, with her disguise gone, his attitude towards her did not change at all.

It felt like the pock-faced girl and the Guqin Crown’s daughter were the same to him.

Her heart raced when she walked closer to Chu Kuangren. “Hey Daoist Brother, I’m Xue Qinxin. You saved me earlier, and I still don’t know your name.”

“My family name is Chu.”

He did not reveal his full name.

“Brother Chu, nice to meet you.”

Further away, a few cultivators grunted in disdain. One of them said with contempt, “Just his family name, Chu? God knows who the hell are you? We know you’re acting cool to attract Miss Xue’s attention. I’ve seen tricks like yours before.”

“Yeah, Miss Xue. Don’t fall for his tricks.”

“He might have an ulterior motive.”

The few of them had taken Chu Kuangren as their love rival, and all they did was trash talk Chu Kuangren as hard as they could.

Further away, Huoshen Xiao heard everything and was nervously sweating. Those cultivators must have a death wish. They were literally challenging death’s patience.

He unconsciously stepped away from the few of them.

“Shut up!”

Xue Qinxin bellowed.

The few of them were silenced by the sudden bellow, but their jealousy and grudge for Chu Kuangren only grew stronger.

One of them snuck up to Chu Kuangren from behind, lifted his hand, and fired a black ray of light at Chu Kuangren’s back.

The black ray of light was actually a cone-shaped hidden weapon. It was quite powerful as it could kill a common Heavenly Daoist Celestial in a single strike.

Clunk!

However, the cone-shaped weapon stopped in the air when it was three inches away from Chu Kuangren. It could not get any closer to him.

The scene shocked the cultivator.

“Impossible?!”

At the next moment, the cone-shaped weapon flew back faster than before and perforated the cultivator’s head, killing him on the spot.

“Foolish.” Chu Kuangren mobilized his mind power. Then, an army of spiritual weapons formed in their air and locked onto the other cultivators.

Swoosh!

The spiritual weapons flew out.

The few of them tried to fight back. However, they were sliced to pieces by hundreds of spiritual weapons in a second.

“Here, that is the only way to shut them up,” Chu Kuangren said to Xue Qinxin calmly.

Xue Qinxin could not help but quiver at the scene.

However, she did not blame Chu Kuangren for the kill. Instead, she lamented, “Those who insult others will be insulted back, and those who kill will eventually be killed. They had it coming.”

Chu Kuangren curled his lips into a grin. “It seems like you’re not a saintess.”

“Saintess? What does that mean?”

“Nothing.”

Xue Qinxin did not linger on the question.

“Served them right! They just had to grind on his gears. Tsk. This guy is still as ruthless as ever,” Huoshen Xiao clicked his tongue further away.

As for the others, no one dared to make him mad after seeing Chu Kuangren’s ruthlessness, and they kept their distance from them.

A while later, the crowd arrived at the deepest part of Weeping Phantom Ridge.

“Roar!”

A powerful roar echoed throughout the woods. Rumbling rage qi flooded the place like a tidal wave, shaking heaven and earth.

Everyone was shocked.

“Such powerful rage qi.”

“This vengeful soul might be a tough one.”

Further away, a vengeful soul as big as a hill charged out of the woods on all four of its limbs like a wild beast.

That particular vengeful soul was a strange one. It had the face of a human, but its limbs were ridiculously long, like a giant spider crawling on the ground.

Hui Fa’s eyes shone when he saw the vengeful soul. “Everyone, this vengeful soul is the strongest one here in Weeping Phantom Ridge! Kill him, and the treasures in the ridge will be ours to take!”

He took the lead and made the first move.

Golden Buddhist Light shone brightly. Following that, a golden Buddha’s palm fell from the sky, trying to smash the vengeful soul.

The others also joined the battle right away.

A fierce battle broke out.

On the other hand, Chu Kuangren stayed back and watched with a chuckle. “They really look like a group on an expedition..”
