Chapter 290 By Chance (2/2)

With all considerations, he could only gradually increase his force until she surrenders.

If it was not for Qianmo's support, Gu Caiwei would not be able to gather such huge amount of Qi of vitality to aid herself when she stepped into Dan Dao. Under the great pressure from Bai Suhuan's Qi dynamics, her pulse point could have collapsed before accomplishing Huandan.

Again, with the help of Qianmo, it created the perfect Dao state for her

With her body as the bronze stove, the Taixu Divine Qi as the fire, Qianmo's odd Qi as the coal and Bai Suhuan's Qi dynamics as the wind, she was the perfect medium to refine this human-sized medicine.

This one in a million opportunity happened in the right time and if any single factor was absent, the outcome could be disastrous and irreversible

She was infuriated by Zhang Lingxian's words and did not have the time to bother about her body thus allowing the Taixu Divine Qi to operate freely on its own. As a result, she unintentionally mastered the art of Dao and overcame the first steps of Huandan. If Grandmaster Qingshui was still around, Grandmaster would say it was the work of luck and fortune.

Seeing how foul-mouthed Zhang Lingxian could be, Choushi's admiration towards Shen Lian increased to a god-like status and he could not bear to see Zhang Lingxian defame Shen Lian and Gu Caiwei.

He stepped forward and released a ray of sword light as he coldly said, ”Uncle-Master Zhang, don't you think you're going overboard?”

Choushi would have been attacked by Bai Suhuan's Qi dynamics but Bai Suhuan had transited the fundamentals of the Code of the Bright Moon to be released or sent through his heart, paving a way for Choushi.

Afterall, he only wanted the celestial medicine and was not too bothered by the juniors. Moreover, he was a person with high ethics and he did not like Zhang Lingxian's verbal attack on Gu Caiwei. If Choushi wanted to fight Zhang Lingxian, by all means. He could not care less who wins or lose.

The tip of Choushi's sword fluttered as a sword lotus appeared and zoomed towards Zhang Lingxian.

His swordcraft was amazing and that took Zhang Lingxian aback. Zhang Lingxian did not expect his juniors with the exception of Chen Jianmei, to be so skillful. Although it was more like a small sparkle compared to Chen Jianmei, Choushi was still very impressive.

Zhang Lingxian whisked a whirlwind that was constantly changing. As it was whisked in one shot, it was hard to tell if it force was strong or weak.

The whirlwind looked like thousands of silver needles; it made a buzzing sound under the light as if it was a lightning.

This 'Floating Sketches' technique was a clever technique and he could transform the whirlwind easily. If it was not for Choushi's awe-inspiring sword, he would not have used this trump card.

Zhang Lingxian was indeed a highly experienced Huandan cultivator. His strong mana and the silver strands of the Floating Sketches was able to tap into the lotus sword in no time. Soon enough, the lotus sword broke in fragmentation. Zhang Lingxian wanted to show off his skills; the silver strands aroused violently, creating a sky of rain that aimed at Choushi.

Sudden rays of light shined through just about when the silver strands were about to poke through Choushi's body to heavily injure him.

The rays of light were silverish white in color was was the illusion of thousands of swords. In a sudden, it started exchanging strokes with Zhang Lingxian. The smoke faded and a figure could be seen nearby. He had a scarf on his head and was dressed like a scholar. He stood there silently as he held a flame of white light that resembled the heavenly sword in his hand.

The silver strands of the horsetail whisk in Zhang Lingxian's hands turned into ashes. Obviously, he was defeated by the sword gleam.

He looked to the direction of the figure and said, ”Apprentice-Nephew Lu, why are you making it difficult for me? Have you forgotten how well my uncle treated you?”

That person was Lu Shouyi. A year after Shen Lian succeeded as the Chief, he left to roam the world and only came back this very day.

But no one expected him to have the ability to break the technique of a Huandan Doyen. Could it be that he had attained Huandan, and Qing Xuan had another disciple who had attained Huandan after Yan Bugui?

In a short period of time, Qing Xuan had produced four Huandan cultivators and that was certainly a good sign for the school. Those were the thoughts of the disciples who were present at the scene.

After all, they had a strong sense of belonging to the school and they were still young. Although many people died before reaching immortality, people like Shen Lian, Chen Jianmei, and Yan Bugui were great role models and that gave them a dash of hope.

Lu Shouyi firmly replied, ”I don't want my late mentor to feel ashamed at the land of the dead and that's exactly why I won't allow you to do such a rebellious thing. If you still care about my mentor, you should just leave. I will explain to other Senior Apprentice-Brothers and beg for mercy on behalf of you.”

Zhang Lingxian responded, ”Junior Apprentice-Brother Lu, you are wrong. Initially, my uncle wanted to groom you as the next chief. But the current Chief was spectacular and that's why you were denied of succession. Now that the Chief was bewitched by Gu Caiwei, it's hard to say if he's dead or alive. If you can see the bigger picture, you should stand by my side and take down these disciples who can't tell right from wrong. Before Shen Lian returns, I can promote you to be the temporary chief and we can maintain the operations of the school.”

Lu Shouyi laughed sarcastically, ”Yes, my purpose today is to take down disciples who can't tell right from wrong.”
