Chapter 942: The Trust and Pride He Had in Her
“Why did you lure me here?” Ling Chuxi used Mind Training Chant to investigate. Although this valley was gloomy, she didn’t feel much danger, so she wasn’t too worried and was able to ask calmly.
“Heh, you still don’t know what this Flowing Cloud Valley is, do you? This is the restricted area of our Flowing Cloud Sect! Ling Chuxi, as Golden Pill Sect’s leader, you actually had evil intentions and trespassed into the restricted area of other sects. This time, you’re dead meat.” Yuan Hui laughed wildly.
“You’re allied with the Yue Family?” Ling Chuxi finally understood at this time. This person was here to target her. The only people she had offended in the Flowing Cloud Sect were Yue Qingjie’s family. Without a doubt, this person was a member of the Yue family. Moreover, this person from the Yue family seemed to have a deep relationship with another sect leader’s disciple. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have held that token.
“So what if I am? Don’t tell me you still want revenge? Don’t think that having Ling Wushang backing you up is that amazing. Let me tell you, this time, not only will Ling Wushang not be able to protect you, but he himself will also undergo the same terrible luck as you,” said Yuan Hui proudly.
Every sect had its own forbidden area. Without the permission of the sect leader, trespassing on the forbidden area was a big crime. At the very best, a disciple’s cultivation would be crippled and the person would be expelled from the sect. At the very worst, they would be killed on the spot. As for outsiders, the consequences of trespassing on the forbidden area of the sect didn’t need much explaining.
In his opinion, even if Ling Chuxi was the sect leader of Golden Pill Sect, she would end up none the better. Ling Wushang would definitely be implicated too because of this. He would most likely be crippled and expelled from the sect, so there would no longer be any doubts about him and his potential for cultivation.
It turned out that the other party wanted to kill two birds with one stone. Not only did they frame her, but they could also implicate Ling Wushang. It was really vicious. However, will the other party succeed just like that? Ling Chuxi’s eyes turned cold.
At this time, in a hidden place outside the valley, a pair of sharp eyes had been watching everything. That gaze was filled with concern and warmth. Who else could it be other than Ling Wushang? He had seen everything that Yuan Hui had done. However, he had been following behind quietly the entire way.
“You don’t seem to be worried at all?” A low voice came from behind Ling Wushang. The voice was very soft, but it gave off a feeling of power without anger.
“Why should I be worried?” said Ling Wushang indifferently.
“This is the forbidden area of the sect. Aren’t you afraid that she will encounter danger?”
“If you knew how she grew up until now, you wouldn’t have asked this question.” Ling Wu Shang was still as calm as ever.
“That’s true, but are you really so assured?”
“She has to experience some training before she can grow up quickly. This is also the reason I didn’t stay by her side. Her strength and intelligence have already exceeded my expectations. I believe that one day, she will be stronger than me,” said Ling Wushang with a smile as he looked at Ling Chuxi with eyes that were filled with trust and a little pride.
That person looked at Ling Wushang as the latter held a gaze that the former had never seen before. He looked at Ling Chuxi in surprise, which then turned into a contemplative expression. Did he hear Ling Wushang correctly? In his memory, this was the first time Ling Wushang admired someone so much. Did that girl in the distance really have such potential?
…
“You’ve already achieved your goal. Why haven’t you called for help?” said Ling Chuxi disdainfully. It seemed that what Jiang Wuhen had said back then had become true. The scheming and fighting in the sect were also intense. Dirty, even. But, so what? Trying to frame her and implicate her brother? What a dream.
