Chapter 136: A Dangerous Battle

But, Little Fatty and ShuiJing completely ignored YuFeng’s anger. They only looked at each other and laughed. Following which, Little Fatty waved his hands and a jade bottle flew towards ShuiJing.

ShuiJing caught it elegantly and drank a single mouth without looking at what was inside. Then, she timidly kept the bottle.

Seeing the priceless five elements pure water disappear in ShuiJing’s hands, Little Fatty didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He knew that ShuiJing must have calculated that he still had plenty of five elements pure water, thus she kept it without saying anything.

Seeing their chemistry, YuFeng couldn’t help but ask doubtfully, “Ha, Miss ShuiJing, I have indeed underestimated you. I never expected you to have someone laying in ambush here!”

ShuiJing then laughed as she tidied up her messy hair. She then said calmly, “Senior brother YuFeng, you guessed wrongly. In fact, this was the first time senior brother SongZhong and I met ever since we entered the Jade Green Screen. We completely did not have the intention to ambush you together!”

“Nonsense, if you guys did not plan ahead, how can it be so coincidental that he appeared here!” YuFeng said in disbelief.

“Haha!” ShuiJing laughed and retorted wittily, “Senior brother YuFeng seemed to have forgotten what I do best!”

“You calculated it?” Only then did YuFeng exclaim in realisation.

“Hehe, that’s right!” ShuiJing explained with a calm smile, “When ShuiJing was being surrounded by the three of you, I calculated that there was a lucky direction. If I run 10 kilometres in that direction and stop there, I would be able to turn this misfortune into a blessing! In all honesty, I also didn’t know that the person who would come and save me would be senior brother SongZhong! But, if I were to think about it, in the whole Jade Green Screen, he would probably be the only person capable of saving me from the attack of the Nine Beauties Painting!”

As she said that, ShuiJing looked at Little Fatty and smiled to express her grat.i.tude.

As YuFeng heard that, he snickered, “Haha, what a joke! If you said that your savior is Han Bing’er from the Jade Pearl Pavilion with the Divine Ice Soul Sword, I would believe you. But you said that this fatty can save you! HAHA, isn’t that too preposterous? Do you really think that he is able to defeat the Nine Beauties Painting with the divine lightning he refined as a XianTian cultivator?”

As ShuiJing heard that, she shook her head and said, “Senior brother YuFeng, do you really believe that there is only so little spiritual artifacts in the world? You seem to look down too much on everyone!”

“En?” YuFeng was immediately stunned as he heard that and he hurriedly replied, “Don’t tell me this darn fatty has one? I don’t believe that!”

“It doesn’t matter whether you believe it or not!” ShuiJing said calmly, “The bad luck on your face has reached its peak and you will face imminent disaster today! Besides, you do not have anyone left to save you!”

“Haha, do you really think that I will believe your lies?” YuFeng said in disdain, “Spiritual artifacts are not trash that can be just casually picked up like that. Besides, so what if this darn fatty had spiritual artifacts? The Nine Beauties Painting is the strongest of all the spiritual artifacts. At least in this world, there isn’t anything that can fight with it! What do I have to fear?”

(T/N: Well, technically Little Fatty really did pick up his copper bell from the trash pile like trash.)

“Arrogance is always the root of one’s destruction!” ShuiJing replied calmly and said nothing else.

At this moment, Little Fatty had a face full of worry as he said with a bitter laughter, “Junior sister, can you please stop disturbing me? Look at me, I do have quite a lot of fats, but not a single spiritual artifact!”

As ShuiJing heard that, she only smiled but refused to speak further. As for YuFeng, he regained his confidence and laughed haughtily, “Haha, I understand now. You guys are just creating false bravado!”

“If you’re going to think that way, it doesn’t really matter to me too!” ShuiJing replied with a smile. In actual fact, the only reason why she said so much was to buy time for her to regain her spiritual Qi. Although the five elements pure water was amazing, it also could not allow her spiritual Qi to be regained in an instant. It would still require some time for her to regain in. Now, she was almost completely recovered.

At this moment, YuFeng also noticed that something was amiss and shouted, “Wait, why have your spiritual Qi recovered? I didn’t see you meditating at all just now? Is it because of what you drank just now?”

“Hehe!” ShuiJing laughed, “Senior brother became smarter already. That’s right, the thing I just drank can help regain my spiritual Qi. Plus, at an extremely fast speed. Now, junior sister has the ability to fight already! I hope senior brother will not be stingy in your teachings!”

As YuFeng heard that, he was exasperated beyond all means. He never expected ShuiJing to play such tricks either. You have to know, there are things which are able to help one recover spiritual Qi, but they are all in the form of elixirs. Something in the form of liquid was completely unheard of. As such, when he saw ShuiJing drinking something, he could not be bothered. Never did he expect it to create problems for him.

But what surprised him the most was the speed of ShuiJing’s recovery. Normally, even with the use of an elixir, one would still have to meditate before recovering in a few minutes. But, ShuiJing did not meditate but only stand there for half a minute before completely recovering, throwing him into bewilderment.

YuFeng could not help but ask in frustration, “What did you just drink? Why did you recover so quickly?”

“It is just some five elements pure water!” ShuiJing replied with a smile.

“Five elements pure water? The five element pure water worth tens of thousands? And you drink it like plain water?” YuFeng was instantly speechless.

“Haha, since it isn’t mine anyway, why should I feel the heartache?” ShuiJing said indifferently.

This round, Little Fatty was speechless. He looked at ShuiJing not knowing whether to laugh or cry and said, “Junior sister, you really do not hold back!”
