Chapter 192: Living Up to Expectations (2/2)
Ying Lan punched Guan Yue’s chest in response, “Are you showing off after trashing that joke of a kid? Look at yourself. You’re handsome, but you put on the face of a dead fish all the time. Are you trying to intimidate everyone you see? Can’t you smile more?”
“In my opinion, it is better for him not to smile.” Meng Luoping followed up with a comment.
The members of the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence all looked at Meng Luoping with a confused expression as they didn’t know the reason behind his comment.
“Think about it, we have been working together for such a long time… think about the time you last saw him smile. That’s right. Look at how he smiled earlier. After smiling, he sent his opponent to the entrance of hell. Just a step further and his opponent would be having a meeting with the king of the netherworld. It’s better for all of us if he doesn't smile. It won’t be worth it if he kills you after smiling at you.”
As soon as Meng Luoping explained himself, the members of the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence erupted with laughter.
On the other side, Pei Qingfeng was rather surprised that Guan Yue was such a strong cultivator. He turned to Bai Luochu and asked, “According to the rules, this foolishly conceited young man is going to be expelled by the Phoenix King Valley. The other young master will be able to enter the Phoenix King Valley… Haha, that brat is going to learn a good lesson this time. He should stop acting so arrogantly in case he loses his life. To be honest, I feel that it will be a waste for that white-clothed young master to join the Phoenix King Valley.”
Bai Luochu stared at Guan Yue as she was unaware of his prowess. He had actually concealed his skills from Ying Lan and herself. However, she couldn’t find fault with him as it was reasonable for one to save a trump card in times of need. Now that he was willing to reveal himself, it meant that he trusted the members of the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence. It was a good thing.
Pei Qingfeng saw Bai Luochu’s blank expression and he waved his hand to catch her attention. “What are you staring blankly at? You didn’t answer my question.”
“What did you ask me?” Bai Luochu finally came back to her senses.
Pei Qingfeng wanted to roll his eyes at Bai Luochu but was afraid that he might anger this lass again. He maintained his composure and repeated himself, “Do you think that the Phoenix King Valley will forsake the merchant’s son and replace him with the white-clothed young man?”
“The Phoenix King Valley will feel that they are suffering a loss if they don’t take advantage of the situation. They are definitely going to recruit Guan… that white-clothed man as a disciple. They won’t forsake the merchant’s son either. In my opinion, they will let the merchant’s son withdraw from their faction for now and after this commotion is over, they will send someone to pick him up.” Bai Luochu spoke realistically.
“That is what I had in mind. Do you think the prideful white-clothed young man will act according to the script written by the Phoenix King Valley?”
Bai Luochu smiled as she felt that Pei Qingfeng was treating her as a prophet. She replied ambiguously, “I don’t know… If he admires the Phoenix King Valley, who will be able to stop him?”
