Shen Wuyang angrily said, "You still have time to be sarcastic here? You should take a look at your own captain before you speak. Even if ten of your captains were tied together, they couldn't beat our captain!"
Crimson Flame Team Member: "Anyone can talk the talk, but the current situation is that our captain is stable, while your captain is nowhere to be found. It's obvious who will win and who will lose!"
“So what if he’s missing?” Chen Qi said, sticking out his neck. “Maybe our captain just thought the scenery here was nice and went to admire it. He won’t be back for a while.”
Crimson Flame Team Member: "Do you even believe what you're saying?! Your captain lost! He just lost!"
Chen Qi was naturally unsure of himself, but he didn't want to swallow his pride. Being an impulsive person, he immediately wanted to rush out and fight the Crimson Flame team members, but Chen Danfeng, who was beside him, held him back.
If it were someone else pulling him, he would get angry, but when he turned around and saw that it was Chen Danfeng, the gentlest female cultivator in the whole team, he suppressed his anger. But he still shouted defiantly, "What do you have to be so proud of? We don't even know if your captain is dead or alive! But our captain is unpredictable. She might just break through the ice in the water and dazzle your eyes in the next instant!"
As soon as the words were spoken, a golden light flashed across the lake to the right of both teams.
Seeing the golden light flash by, everyone turned to their right and looked at the lake.
As soon as the golden light fell and they could see the lake surface clearly, another dazzling golden light burst forth.
Amidst the dazzling light, the pale blue, hard ice surface began to crackle, and cracks spread across the entire lake at an increasingly rapid pace. Golden light shone even brighter through the cracks, piercing straight out from the ice fissures, as if it were tearing the ice surface apart.
Just as everyone was stunned, the golden light suddenly disappeared, and at the same time, the thick ice on the lake suddenly shattered! Ice blocks and lake water splashed everywhere, blooming into dazzling ice flowers in the air.
Amidst this magnificent scenery, a red figure leaps gracefully out.
She descended gracefully, her toes touching the blooming ice flowers, like a celestial maiden descending to earth, her bright red dress fluttering and drawing streaks of beautiful light.
At that moment, no one uttered a single word.
Shi Xuan landed lightly in front of them, a few strands of curly hair cascading down her cheeks. She gave a sweet smile, the two dimples on her cheeks making her look incredibly cute.
"Hi, were you waiting for me?" Shi Xuan waved to everyone, his smile growing even brighter.
Everyone was stunned, including Chen Qi.
He was just spouting nonsense to avoid losing face, how did it actually come true! Is his mouth blessed with some kind of magic, making it so effective!
Just then, Ji Lie slowly woke up and opened his eyes.
The members of the Crimson Flame Team looked at their pale-faced captain who had just woken up, and then at Shi Xuan, who descended with a radiant smile like a celestial maiden. Their hearts were filled with complex emotions, and they were all too shocked to speak.
Ji Lie lay dying beside him, and when he came to his senses, his eyes widened in disbelief.
Impossible! He released a Nascent Soul stage Dao talisman! He watched it explode right next to Shi Xuan! How could she still be unharmed!
But the facts were undeniable, and the pain in his body constantly reminded him that everything before him was real, not a dream.
But why? Why was she unharmed after being attacked by the talisman, while he himself was described as being in such a sorry state? You must know, Shi Xuan was right at the center of the explosion!
Just as Ji Lie was getting angry, Shi Xuan turned around and looked at them with a smile.
"Hey, isn't this Brother Fireball? Long time no see!" Shi Xuan looked at Ji Lie with a sincere expression. "We became friends after our fight. Although you were defeated today and need to leave, take it easy and consider it a friendly concession between friends!"
"Pfft." Some of the onlookers couldn't help but laugh.
Ji Lie was even angrier, his pale face turning red with suppressed anger.
What the heck is "Fireball Bro"?! And who's your friend?! He doesn't have a friend like that!
It was only then that the team members recovered from their shock. They said, "How could such a capable captain be killed in such a small explosion!"
The size of the explosion was constantly changing in the minds of the best squad members. Just now, when they were worried, the explosion seemed enormous, but now that they saw their captain was unharmed, they began to despise it as a small explosion...
"Hahaha, Fireball, you're killing me!" Chen Qi felt refreshed and spoke with more confidence after regaining his senses. He took two steps forward, spread his hands, and triumphantly said towards the Crimson Flame Team, "What did I tell you! What did I just say! Hahahaha!"
The members of the Crimson Flame Team were furious, but what could they do when their captain was so impressive?
This is really giving her face. She broke the ice and did it. She's a captain, after all. Can't she be a little more reserved?
Ji Lie was so angry he felt like spitting out blood. He, a Golden Core cultivator at the Great Perfection stage, was already like this; how could she, a Golden Core cultivator at the seventh level, still be so vigorous and unharmed!
Shi Xuan was still looking at him with a smile. In Ji Lie's eyes, her expression seemed to be urging him to fulfill his promise to give up the place.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes wide in disbelief.
No! Shi Xuan is already at the eighth level of the Golden Core stage! She not only wasn't injured, but she actually advanced!
Ji Lie felt as if his soul had been struck a blow. He was also in a daze. Was he not yet awake, and was all of this just a hallucination?
She was blown up by a Nascent Soul stage Dao Talisman and then advanced in rank?! Nobody would believe that!
Shi Xuan took two steps forward, and the aura of advancement on her body gradually dissipated with her movements.
When the captain returned safely, the team members were overjoyed and chatted excitedly to welcome her.
"I knew it! With a captain as wise and brave as ours, how could he be afraid of such a small explosion?"
"You're kidding me. I don't know who it was, but they were saying that the explosion was something unprecedented, with immense power..."
"Where exactly is the captain underwater? Zhang Yingxin went underwater to look for you seven times but couldn't find you."
"You can't judge a captain's situation by common sense. In short, he's fine!"
"They were all so worried just now, thankfully it was just a false alarm!"
...
Receiving care and concern from her teammates, Shi Xuan felt a warm glow in her heart. If this were in the market outside the sect, she would have taken everyone to Huixianglou for a meal to calm their nerves.
One can imagine how worried her friends were after she had been missing for so long.
But at this moment, they were on a floating island in the ice field, a desolate place with nothing in sight.
Shi Xuan replied with a smile, "What should we do? How about the captain sings you a song to calm your nerves?"
