Chapter 45: Unexpected Battle Situation Hua Shengqing felt comfortable fighting...
Qin Xueyang had been watching the fun for a while. Finally, he couldn't help but add fuel to the fire and sarcastically said, "No way? Junior Sister Hua has only been building her foundation for a short time, and I see that your junior brother is already in the late stage of foundation building. He can't be defeated by Junior Sister Hua, right? No way, no way?"
Li Shiqing was so angry that he was speechless.
However, Qin Xueyang's words also reminded him that his junior brother's cultivation level was much higher, so he should not suffer any loss.
After they finished arguing, Nan Si Ning pulled the little beast out the door. His seventh senior sister hadn't had a good fight since she came out of the Secret Realm of Strange Fire. This was the first time she used the Ziwei Sky Fire to fight against others. Wouldn't it be fun to watch?
Wu Che and Jamel Xiao immediately followed her and went to watch the fun.
When they arrived outside the hall, Hua Shengqing and Han Qingyu were already fighting, attracting a lot of onlookers.
Hua Shengqing's body was already covered in flames, and she looked like a man of fire. Every time she swung her sword, it was accompanied by a scorching air wave, and every move was filled with a strong murderous intent.
Nan Si Ning looked at Hua Shengqing with admiration. As expected, Seventh Senior Sister was best at fighting. Even though she had just established her foundation and Han Qingyu was already in the late stage of foundation building, Han Qingyu was still beaten back.
This was partly because Hua Shengqing's attack was particularly fierce due to the impact of her anger, but more importantly, she was good at swordsmanship. Compared to Han Qingyu who was constrained everywhere, Hua Shengqing seemed particularly imposing.
Seeing the two men fighting like this, many people were talking about it. Nan Si Ning heard someone say, "The people from Cijian Peak are really crazy. They fought with Senior Brother Han Er as soon as they came back. It's really unreasonable!"
"Yes, yes. I heard that Senior Sister Hua is a lunatic. She often draws her sword when she disagrees with something. She doesn't behave like a female cultivator at all."
"I still prefer Senior Sister Luo. This Senior Sister Hua is like a crazy woman..."
…
Nan Si Ning's eyes turned cold. These idiots were really speechless. They even dared to call Seventh Senior Sister a crazy woman.
Nan Si Ning's eyes flashed as he suddenly shouted, "Seventh Senior Sister, come on! Beat him to death! How dare he give Eighth Senior Brother that poison! Beat him so hard that he'll have to hide from us Cijian Peak people in the future!"
"Seventh Senior Sister! Burn him with your Ziwei Heavenly Fire! Turn him into a roasted chicken! Let's see if he dares to bully us at Cijian Peak again!"
Nan Sining's girlish voice was quite penetrating, and many people present could hear it clearly at once.
Many people's expressions changed immediately.
Nan Si Ning explained the reason why Hua Shengqing had chased and beaten someone, and many people suddenly felt that Han Qingyu deserved it. Qin Sangyue was right. Using aphrodisiacs to torture others was Han Qingyu's favorite thing to do, and many of his fellow disciples had suffered from this. The physical discomfort of being drugged was one thing, but the more important thing was the public embarrassment and shame, which became a psychological trauma for many people.
Many people who had suffered this loss hid in the crowd. When they saw Han Qingyu being chased and beaten, their eyes were shining. They wanted to see Han Qingyu beaten to death, and it would be best if his life was taken!
When Han Qingyu heard that Hua Shengqing's fire was the Ziwei Heavenly Fire, her expression changed: "You...how do you have the Ziwei Heavenly Fire!?"
Hua Shengqing raised her sword and slashed at him: "None of your business!"
“You…you robbed…”
Han Qingyu wanted to say, you stole Luo Qingyao's Ziwei Skyfire, but he was beaten so hard by Hua Shengqing that he could hardly say a complete sentence.
Li Shiqing chased out and heard Nan Sining's words. He was shocked and asked, "Where is her Ziwei Heavenly Fire?"
According to Luo Qingyao, hadn't the Ziwei Heavenly Fire been smashed into pieces and scattered throughout the Strange Fire Secret Realm? Where did Hua Shengqing's come from?
Qin Sangyue covered her face coldly, not bothering to pay attention to her. Her eyes were only on her seventh junior sister, trying to figure out where her seventh junior sister's swordsmanship was not up to par. She would give her some individual instruction after returning.
Qin Xueyang was happy to join in, saying, "Of course it's in the secret realm of our Medicine King City. Alas, this Ziwei Skyfire has had a very rough life. Even after being subdued by Luo Qingyao, it refused to obey her commands. In the end, Ziwei Skyfire would rather turn into a rain of fire than leave Luo Qingyao. It's obvious that this person, tsk tsk..."
Hearing these words, Li Shiqing and others felt their faces go numb and their hearts were filled with anger. Qin Xueyang's public diss of Luo Qingyao was a slap in the face of those who were close to Luo Qingyao!
After all, everyone has heard that "birds of a feather flock together."
However, when these words reached the ears of the other disciples, they took on a different meaning: Had such a thing ever happened in the secret realm? Could it be that Senior Sister Luo was truly such a bad person, with such a poor character, that she was disliked by a strange fire like the Ziwei Heavenly Fire?
Nan Si Ning then sent a message to Qin Xueyang: "Senior Sister Qin! You really know how to talk!"
Qin Xueyang looked at her with a smile, and felt more comfortable after being flattered by Nan Si Ning. He felt that this little junior sister was really good, much better than his own stupid junior brother. Is it really impossible for her to sneak back to his own Yaowang City?
After Hua Shengqing and Han Qingyu had exchanged nearly a hundred moves, Han Qingyu could feel that Hua Shengqing was gradually getting tired, and she was immediately delighted.
Even though Hua Shengqing had already established her foundation, her Ziwei Sky Fire consumed a lot of spiritual energy. In addition, she did not hold back at all and used all her moves in a big and aggressive manner, so her spiritual energy was consumed extremely quickly.
Seeing Hua Shengqing's attacks becoming increasingly slower, Han Qingyu suddenly trembled. He grinned and said, "You were so busy showing off your Ziwei Heavenly Fire that you forgot that you've only just reached the Foundation Establishment stage and can't possibly withstand such a strong drain on your spiritual energy. Now, it's my turn to hit you!"
Han Qingyu's words caused everyone to buzz with discussion.
"I was saying, although they are both in the Foundation Establishment stage, one has just established his foundation and the other is in the late Foundation Establishment stage. The difference in cultivation is obvious."
"Yes, Senior Brother Han has a higher level of cultivation and more experience. Although Senior Sister Hua has the upper hand for a while, she won't be able to hold on for long."
"As expected, a fight still depends on one's cultivation and ability, not just on rare treasures."
"Brother Han, fight back quickly and show the people from Cijian Peak what you can do!"
…
The noise of the crowd's discussion also reached Hua Shengqing's ears. Hua Shengqing snorted coldly and said, "Thinking about wasting time to wear me down? Dream on!"
As she spoke, she slapped the mustard seed bag at her waist, took out a spiritual pill and stuffed it into her mouth. In just a few breaths, her spiritual power was mostly restored, and the flame of the Ziwei Heavenly Fire, which had just been a little wilted, suddenly jumped up again.
When everyone saw it, they couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow!"
Is this spiritual energy pill so powerful? It can restore so much spiritual energy in an instant?!
Hua Shengqing said with full energy: "Want to fight me? Then let's see whether you can hold out longer or I have more soul-replenishing pills!"
As he said that, he rushed towards Han Qingyu again, and the power of his sword moves was no less than when he just came out!
Han Qingyu was immediately horrified. Hua Shengqing had just taken the Spirit Replenishing Pill, not some other strange elixir! Why had Hua Shengqing recovered her spiritual power so quickly? You know, none of the Spirit Replenishing Pills on the market, even the divine ones or even the super-quality ones, had such amazing effects!
Moreover, what Hua Shengqing meant by that sentence is that she still has a lot of these spiritual tonic pills?
Han Qingyu suddenly felt a huge pressure. It was the first time he faced Hua Shengqing, who was not as skilled as him, and he wanted to retreat.
Seeing how quickly Hua Shengqing recovered her spiritual energy, and how much it replenished, Xiao Jingwen's eyes lit up and he said, "Junior Sister Nan, you are indeed worthy of being her! My master's spiritual replenishing pills don't even have this kind of effect!"
Nan Si Ning smiled modestly and said, "It's because Senior Medicine King hasn't refined low-level elixirs like the Soul-Boosting Pill for many years, so you haven't seen this kind of effect."
Qin Xueyang praised her without hesitation, "Junior Sister Nan, please don't say that. Even if my master used the common recipe to make a nourishing pill, he wouldn't be able to make such a good one. The effectiveness of this nourishing pill is largely due to your recipe."
Even Qin Xueyang was amazed. After so many years in the art of alchemy, he had never seen such a powerful spiritual elixir!
She wanted to take good note of Hua Shengqing's performance in the fight after taking the medicine, so that she could go back and tell her master that the medicine made from this new formula would gain more attention from her master.
Thinking of this, she took out a photo stone and recorded the second half of the fight.
After recording a segment, Qin Xueyang noticed that Nan Si Ning's eyes kept looking at the photo stone in his hand, so he said, "Junior Sister Nan, do you like this? I'll give one to you!"
"Isn't this inappropriate?" Nan Sining asked politely.
But her shining eyes almost said, "Give it to me quickly!"
Qin Xueyang found her even more adorable, so he took out a smaller one and said, "This one is smaller, so it won't last long. You can play with it!"
"Thank you, Senior Sister Qin!" Nan Sining took it with both hands again and said in a sweet voice.
Qin Xueyang felt more and more uncomfortable: Woo, can't I really compete with others for the custody of my junior sister?
Just like Nan Si Ning who still had time to pay attention to the photo stone, the people at Cijian Peak seemed very calm.
They could all see that Hua Shengqing had not used her full strength. If she had really risked her life, Han Qingyu would have died here today.
"Seventh Junior Sister has improved and become much more sensible." Qin Sangyue said with some emotion.
If it were in the past, with Hua Shengqing's reckless personality, he would probably have beaten him to death.
Yuan Qing'an smiled faintly, his whole body as graceful as a bamboo orchid, bright and clear as the moon. He replied, "Yes, I know how to control my strength when I strike, and I also know to use this opportunity to hone my swordsmanship."
Zhou Lixing asked in a low voice, "I haven't used my Ziwei Heavenly Fire either. Do you want to drag the people from the Discipline Hall into a fight?"
Yuan Qingan said helplessly: "Third Junior Brother, there is no need for that. We at Cijian Peak need to show our strength, but we can't reveal everything."
Zhou Lixing nodded: "Okay, I understand."
Yesterday's encounter at Yaofeng was a friendly one, but today's fight at Discipline Hall was an opportunity to demonstrate their strength. Cijianfeng used this opportunity to demonstrate their stance: to those willing to interact with them, Cijianfeng would readily offer cooperation and benefits, and to those who targeted them, Cijianfeng would also be able to fight back.
But Ci Jianfeng is not at the critical moment of life and death at this time, so there is no need to take out everything.
The fact that Hua Shengqing had the Ziwei Heavenly Fire was already enough to shock the entire sect. If Zhou Lixing took it out again at this time, not only would the deterrent effect be reduced, it would also affect the upcoming sect competition.
Li Shiqing and the other three from the Discipline Hall seemed much more anxious. They hadn't expected that their second-in-command would be beaten by Hua Shengqing.
In the past, the only person they could look up to in Cijian Peak was Qin Sangyue. Not to mention Hua Shengqing, the reckless female cultivator, they even looked down upon Yuan Qing'an and the others.
Now that Han Qingyu couldn't gain any advantage against Hua Shengqing, he was shocked and secretly puzzled. How could Ci Jianfeng have improved so much in just two months? Others hadn't seen such immediate results when they went out for training!
"Senior Brother, what should we do?" Cao Shengjin couldn't help but ask anxiously as he watched his second senior brother being beaten back step by step and even fleeing in a somewhat embarrassed manner.
Li Shiqing glanced at Qin Sangyue and said, "Watch for a while."
"If we continue to watch, I'm afraid Second Brother will get hurt even more!"
Li Shiqing was also very conflicted. If he didn't help, his second junior brother would definitely lose, and then the Discipline Hall would be embarrassed. But if he helped, it would seem as if his family couldn't afford to lose, which would also be embarrassing.
At this time, Li Shiqing also secretly resented his second junior brother's misbehavior. In the past, he had drugged ordinary disciples and outer disciples, and no one dared to pursue the matter. But this time, he actually drugged Cong Chen.
No matter how weak Cong Chen is, he is still a direct disciple and has a backer.
At this time, Li Shiqing had forgotten how much he looked down on Ci Jianfeng in the past. He wanted to kick Ci Jianfeng out of the sect directly. His fellow disciples also acted according to his attitude.
But no matter how much hatred he felt, he had to bring his junior brother back first.
Li Shiqing pondered, turning the storage ring on his left hand with his right hand, his eyes slightly narrowed.
As soon as he thought about it, a needle as thin as a hair appeared beside him.
Although the thin needle was shining with cold light, it was too small to be detected.
He glanced at the people from Cijian Peak and Yaowang City who were chatting and laughing, and snorted in his heart, "You won't be able to laugh later."
His gaze returned to the two people fighting, and Li Shiqing had an idea, and the hair needle immediately stabbed directly at Hua Shengqing.
After firing the needle, Li Shiqing's mouth just curled up, and suddenly he felt that the needle disappeared like a drop in the ocean, without any trace.
Li Shiqing was shocked and used his spiritual sense to search for the needle, but found nothing.
The more he couldn't find it, the more panicked Li Shiqing became. This was his invincible weapon, why did it suddenly become ineffective today?
Just as he was searching for the needle with great effort, a voice suddenly said, "Are you looking for this?"
Li Shiqing's heart skipped a beat, and cold sweat soaked his back. He turned his head and saw Yuan Qing'an holding a thin needle in his hand. The dazzling cold light was very eye-catching under the blessing of his spiritual power.
It was the needle he had been looking for!
Li Shiqing suddenly felt his throat tighten: How did he find this thing?!
He was torn between himself and his own thoughts: Should he admit it was his? If he did, he would be accused of sneak attack. If he didn't, it was a needle technique he had painstakingly cultivated, inextricably linked to his spiritual roots. Giving it away would be like cutting off a finger!
The people around had already noticed what was happening here. More and more people would discover what he had done. Li Shiqing made up his mind and said, "No, Junior Brother Yuan, you are mistaken."
Yuan Qing'an nodded and said, "In that case, it is ownerless. I can dispose of it with peace of mind."
Before Li Shiqing asked him what to do, he saw Yuan Qing'an's five fingers gradually close together, and the light in his hands became more and more dazzling.
Li Shiqing only felt a sharp pain in his heart, and then his whole heart seemed to be grasped by someone. He could hardly breathe and was in terrible pain.
Yuan Qing'an did not delay and quickly used his light energy to annihilate the entire needle.
Li Shiqing felt a fishy and sweet taste in his throat, and a mouthful of blood rushed into his throat. He almost vomited blood in front of Yuan Qingan.
Li Shiqing gritted his teeth and swallowed it back. Because the spiritual power in his body was raging and flowing backwards, he couldn't control his whole body shaking.
Zhu Yun noticed Li Shiqing's movements and hurriedly supported him and asked, "Big Brother, what's wrong with you?"
Li Shiqing quickly raised one hand to indicate that he was fine.
After secretly regulating his breathing for a while, he said, "It's okay, don't shout nonsense."
Cao Shengjin was also surprised and said, "But you are bleeding, Big Brother."
Li Shiqing touched the corner of his mouth and said, "It's okay."
Although he felt the blood surging in his body and his spiritual power running wildly, he still forced himself to hold it back. He couldn't show his cowardice and lose face in this situation.
Yuan Qingan returned to Qin Sangyue, and Qin Sangyue asked, "How is it?"
Yuan Qing'an's smile deepened, and he said, "He's someone who cares about face. No wonder he seems so arrogant on weekdays."
"Destroying that needle had a significant impact on him?"
Yuan Qing'an hummed softly and said, "As soon as I destroyed the needle, he vomited blood, but he held it in."
Qin Sangyue nodded and continued, "If the Great Elder asks, you must pretend that you don't know anything and insist that you don't know anything."
Yuan Qing'an turned his gaze towards Hua Shengqing and said, "If he doesn't dare to speak up himself, why should I be afraid? Besides... the Great Elder has a lot of things to worry about, and my disciple's internal injuries are not even on his radar."
Qin Sangyue thought about it and agreed, so she stopped worrying about it.
Li Shiqing's move this time also made them realize that fellow disciples often use various tricks against each other. They must pay attention to this matter in the upcoming sect competition.
Hua Shengqing and Han Qingyu fought for quite some time. After several twists and turns, Hua Shengqing was still suppressing Han Qingyu. Although Hua Shengqing had swallowed several pills, she seemed tireless and became more and more excited as the fight went on.
On the other hand, Han Qingyu's clothes were burned into pieces by Hua Shengqing, leaving only a few pieces of cloth hanging on his body. Not only did his clothes look much more disheveled, but his figure also looked much more disheveled.
He had swallowed the elixir several times, but his recovery speed was getting slower and slower, and he was already struggling to hold on.
Xiao Jingwen went from being excited at the beginning to feeling a little bored: "When will they finish fighting? Then why don't Han Qingyu just admit defeat?"
"My Seventh Senior Sister isn't tired yet, but you're tired first?" Nan Sining asked curiously.
Xiao Jingwen said confidently: "I am an alchemy cultivator. Watching sword cultivators fight is just for fun. It is not as interesting as watching the alchemist making pills! To be honest, Junior Sister Nan, I really want to see you make pills. Master has always told me to watch you make pills more often."
Nan Si Ning said lightly, "I've been busy these past two days, let's talk about it in a couple of days."
I can't concentrate on refining the elixir unless I solve these difficult problems.
Xiao Jingwen immediately said actively: "Then remember to call me! I'll help you."
Wu Che asked curiously, "My junior sister really knows how to make pills?"
Thinking that the people at Cijian Peak knew Nan Si Ning's alchemy skills later than him, Xiao Jingwen was extremely proud and immediately boasted to Wu Che about Nan Si Ning's alchemy skills. He even told Wu Che about how Nan Si Ning pressed him to the ground without caring about his own face, which made Nan Si Ning's mouth twitch.
Just when Nan Si Ning was boredly calculating when his seventh senior sister would be able to kill Han Qingyu, someone suddenly flew towards the Discipline Hall from the sky.
When they got closer, Nan Sining recognized that one of them was Master Yu of Yaofeng, and following closely behind him was his chief disciple Wang Xuan.
Nan Sining couldn't recognize the others.
Just when she was about to ask her sixth senior brother Wu Che, she heard Xiao Jingwen ask: "I have seen the master of Yaofeng, who is the person in front of him?"
Wu Che took one look and became completely intimidated. He shrank back and said, "That's the Great Elder who is in charge of the Discipline Hall! I haven't seen the Great Elder in a long time. Isn't he in seclusion in the cave in the back mountain? How could he appear here?"
Nan Si Ning was also surprised: "I didn't expect that although you don't like to go out, you know all the gossip outside and you know quite a few people."
Wu Che chuckled and explained in a low voice, "I specially looked for portraits and memorized the appearances of the peak masters and elders of each peak in our sect. I also inquired about their personalities and preferences, so that I wouldn't accidentally run into them and end up in trouble because of not recognizing their talents."
After Xiao Jingwen was stunned for a while, he silently raised his thumb: “Junior Brother Wu, you are this.”
Wu Che said modestly with a hint of smugness, "No, no."
Nan Sining: ...
While they were talking, those people had already come closer. The elder who looked quite serious but had a big head just waved his hand lightly and separated Hua Shengqing and Han Qingyu.
Han Qingyu immediately half-knelt on the ground and cried out mournfully, "Master..."
Nan Si Ning felt a little uneasy in his heart. He was such a good actor!
If a delicate beauty pretended to be pitiful like this, everyone would definitely feel pity for her, but Han Qingyu was a man! Even if his behavior seemed a little gentle, his appearance, his tall stature, and his physique all showed that he was a man!
Therefore, Han Qingyu's action not only lacks the beauty of a beautiful woman, but is also eye-catching.
Hua Shengqing retreated. Although she was a little afraid of the Great Elder, she did not return to Qin Sangyue. Instead, she remained standing where she was.
After the Great Elder, Peak Master Yu, and the others landed, Hua Shengqing joined the other disciples in bowing, "Greetings to the Great Elder, and Peak Master Yu."
The Great Elder's expression was as serious as usual, but Master Yu Feng beside him had a smile on his face, which made many people secretly feel relieved.
Seeing his master coming, Li Shiqing hurriedly led his two junior brothers forward to greet him: "Greetings to Master, Greetings to Peak Master Yu, and Junior Brother Wang."
He was nervous and a little scared. After finishing the greeting, he immediately explained, "Master, Second Junior Brother and Junior Sister Hua are fighting here..."
The Great Elder stopped him from explaining and said, "I heard that someone from Cijian Peak is here?"
