Chapitre 11: Sorry, It's Boiling Water
Éditeur: EndlessFantasy Translation
Did she really not hear him, or was she just pretending? Could it be that she was deliberately avoiding his question because she couldn't reveal it?
Lin Qing's mind turned a few times.
Chen Muxue suddenly felt that the man in front of her had become more cautious. She looked at the wok in her hand, but he did not touch it!
"Hey, what are you trying to do by secretly approaching a weak woman like me from behind?"
Lin Qing and the few junior brothers behind him were speechless.
Just now, Eldest Senior Brother had gathered spirit power on his arm at the critical moment, but that spirit power had actually been scattered!
Moreover, everyone had ears, so one could imagine how loud that sound was. Looking at the thickness and purity of the material of the wok, it seemed like she was using a fly swatter!
So this was the legendary 'not having the strength to even truss a chicken'?
"Young lady, I'm Lin Qing from the Sky Cloud Sect. Shen Yao can be considered my junior martial sister, right?" Lin Qing spoke with great difficulty, and his expression was a little strange.
"Ahem, anyway, the Sky Cloud Sect's disciple was injured by an outsider, and she even lost a sword. As disciples of the same sect, we can't just sit back and do nothing." Lin Qing's lips moved again, but he didn't continue.
'The main thing is that I can't ignore the news about the life fruit, hehe,' he said in his heart.
Hearing this, Chen Muxue understood. "Oh! Oh! You guys are here to avenge Shen Yao?"
"That's correct."
'I'm mainly here to find the life fruit!' Lin Qing added in his heart.
Behind him, a junior brother and another person whispered, "Look at Eldest Senior Brother's eyebrows and lips. He must be muttering something."
Chen Muxue looked left and right. Yup, there were so many people on the other side, and all of them seemed to be on a higher level than her. It seemed like she wouldn't be able to run away. Even a wolf wouldn't be able to defeat so many sheep if he were to fight them.
"How do you guys want to avenge Shen Yao?" Chen Muxue asked carefully.
Lin Qing was stunned for a moment and turned to look at his junior brothers.
Everyone looked at each other. "Uh, give you a beating?"
Chen Muxue suddenly snorted and laughed. "I don't know if you guys know how Shen Yao was beaten up, right?"
Her mysterious look was very scary, causing Lin Qing's heart to skip a beat. Countless terrifying images of a woman carrying a wok appeared in his mind.
The brawny woman carried a huge iron wok on her back. Her eyes flickered with a bloodthirsty light, and her teeth were extremely sharp with traces of blood still in her mouth. She raised her hand and gently pinched, and the mid-grade magical weapon was crushed between her fingers!
Lin Qing shivered.
"Haha! A puny Foundation Building cultivator is showing off her skills in front of an expert. Who harmed my senior martial sister? Quick, tell us the truth, and we'll spare your life!" Suddenly, one of the junior brothers couldn't help butting in.
"What an old-fashioned line." Lin Qing complained in his heart as he glanced at that junior brother.
Those who didn't know would think that Shen Yao had been killed!
Chen Muxue was silent for a moment before she chuckled. "How about this, I'll give you guys a chance. If you can hurt my little finger, I'll tell you everything I know." As she spoke, she extended her magical little finger.
"A level-six Foundation Building cultivator is so arrogant!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Muxue's body suddenly emitted a wave of spirit Qi. She had secretly eaten a few pickled radishes on her way here.
Lin Qing and the others were silent. After a while, the junior brother from before stomped his foot again.
"A level-seven Foundation Building cultivator is so arrogant!" His tone was obviously a little weak now. He had never seen anyone suddenly advance while standing on the street! Maybe he was just inexperienced?
"What, you don't dare to? Could it be that the disciples of the Sky Cloud Sect like you can't even hurt my little finger?" As she spoke, Chen Muxue curled her little finger.
'Little finger? Why little finger?' Lin Qing's eyes darkened. 'Could it be…'
Shocking! The disciples of the Sky Cloud Sect bullied women just to break their pinkies!
No one in the world knew that there was a story between the Sky Cloud Sect and a woman's little finger.
The obsession of the Sky Cloud Sect's disciples with little fingers? Most people don't know this!
Countless topics that would be gossiped about in the future flashed through Lin Qing's mind, and fear flashed in his eyes.
"You're a woman, but you're so vicious!"
Chen Muxue was speechless.
The junior brothers looked at each other and shook their heads. They really didn't know what their eldest senior brother was thinking!
"It's just a little finger. I'll just…" Chen Muxue felt her pinky itch for a moment. Then, before anyone could react, she saw a shattered blade on the ground again.
"What grade is your magic weapon this time? How much is it?" Chen Muxue asked curiously.
A certain Junior Brother fell to the ground. "My holy sword!"
The remaining brothers all took a step back and finally put on a serious expression, their hands all touching their sword hilts. This level-six Foundation Building cultivator was actually level seven, yet she was so terrifying!
Lin Qing saw the process of the sword shattering and came to a realization. "So it's you! You hurt Shen Yao?"
Chen Muxue pointed at him with her little finger. "Correct. It was me. Come on, can you hurt my little finger?"
Lin Qing pulled out his sword, and a green spiritual energy surrounded the blade. Suddenly, there was a refreshing and peaceful feeling of being in the depths of a bamboo forest.
"Wood spiritual root?" Chen Muxue poured some water on Lin Qing's feet.
"She dared to provoke a Golden Core Stage master!" In the dark, Cen Lii was ready to jump out at any time.
A few bamboo shoots instantly sprouted out from the spot where Lin Qing's feet had been watered by Chen Muxue.
"Waa!"
"Waa!"
Chen Muxue and Lin Qing exclaimed in unison. The two of them paused and looked at each other, and the atmosphere became domineering again.
Seeing the bamboo shoots, Cen Li stumbled in his steps.
"Surrender now." Lin Qing brandished his sword.
Buzz... Buzz…
Lin Qing was speechless as he looked at Chen Muxue splashing water on him like a child. He almost couldn't bear it.
But it was still just a step away. He jumped up, and his simple sword attack was like a hot knife through butter.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, Chen Muxue's small water gun turned into a large water pillar, and it was about to envelop Lin Qing!
"It's no use!" Lin Qing relied on his spiritual power, which was many times stronger than Chen Muxue's, to break through the water pillar.
"I'm sorry, the water is boiling."
"Huh?!"
As the boiling water and the spiritual force collided, hot steam filled the entire space!
Every inch of Lin Qing's skin was burning, and he couldn't even open his eyes! He quickly wrapped his body with spiritual energy, but he experienced the feeling of being cooked.
"Hmph!"
His attack was hard to avoid. The sword came straight for Chen Muxue. She couldn't dodge it, so she used the wok to block it.
It was obvious that the current her and the metal wok could not shatter the sword of someone of Lin Qing's level. Not only that, she was even sent flying a few meters by the sword.
Lin Qing's attack failed, and he immediately turned around to jump away. His exposed skin was already red, and he had inhaled a lot of hot steam when he breathed just now, which caused him to feel a sharp pain in his throat and lungs.
"Senior Brother!" The junior brothers quickly went forward to help him up, but the moment they grabbed Lin Qing, he was hurt a second time.
"Ouch! Let go!" Lin Qing jumped away and quickly used his spirit energy to repair his lungs. He then looked at Chen Muxue, but what he saw was the back of a person running away with something in her arms.
The bamboo shoots on the ground had been plucked away.
"Senior Brother, should we go after her?"
Lin Qing's mouth twitched. "Let's do it another day."
