Chapter 241: That Salty Look Is Especially Unpleasant... (2/2)

After thinking about it, w.a.n.g Lu could not help but smile. w.a.n.g Lu swept his gaze and found out that other people’s face was also flushed; obviously. they appreciated the taste and benefits of moral excellence. With that, w.a.n.g Lu was ready to lead Liu Li away from this stone chamber. However, when he turned around, he heard the voice of w.a.n.gyue Luanyu as she gnashed her teeth, ”w.a.n.g Lu, you may win this time, but Senior Brother Jianglu would not let you get away!”

”You should let Jianglu come to me and say those words, you don’t have the qualifications to provoke me.”

From the beginning, w.a.n.g Lu actually didn’t put w.a.n.gyue siblings in his eyes. In terms of position, he was the Lead Representative of the Spirit Sword Sect, one of the Five Uniques, therefore, the one who was equal to him should be the Lead Representative of Shengjing Sect, or someone with similar qualification with the Lead Representative. Even Jianglu who was currently the team leader was really not that equal with w.a.n.g Lu, much less the w.a.n.gyue siblings.

As for offending Shengjing Sect? What about it? Before this, perhaps there were some scruples, but after this trial, the cohesion of the three teams would be greatly strengthened, and Spirit Sword Sect has managed to get the dominant position. Therefore, in terms of overall team strength, they definitely could contend with Shengjing Sect team.

The next game should be even more interesting.

After stepping out of the filial piety gate, the four sects’ cultivators that waited outside immediately stepped forward, impatiently wanting to inquire everything that happened inside the gate.

They all felt incredulous at the strange and bizarre trial rules inside the gate of filial piety, causing them to make new guesses for these trials of the eight virtues. However, in any case, since they have come to this, even if they would face tremendous dangers and difficulties ahead of them, they would still march ahead; no matter how absurd the rules would be, they would try to pa.s.s the trial first.

Then, when they learned that w.a.n.g Lu had almost single-handedly dominated the whole filial piety trial and successfully got rid of the eight members of Shengjing Sect team, the people that waited outside reacted differently.

Bai s.h.i.+xuan just faintly said her congratulation and appeared indifferent to the filial piety trial. Zhan Ziye wholeheartedly cupped his fists and bowed to w.a.n.g Lu. For this always arrogant Ten Thosuand Arts Sect representative, this was a rarely seen show of respect. The feelings of cultivators from Kunlun Sect were mixed. After all, Zhou Mumu and Zhang Li failed to pa.s.s the trial. However, considering that w.a.n.g Lu was able to defeat Shengjing Sect team… He could still be regarded as a respectable teammate.

However, in Shengjing Sect camp, they could not wait to tear his bones apart and smash them into pieces.

Over the years, have Shengjing Sect ever suffered such a setback and insult? Even if Shengjing Sect was a big enterprise with a lot of a.s.sets, unavoidably, they would encounter b.u.mps all over the Nine Regions. Towards this, Shengjing Sect was also relatively magnanimous; unless they were key issues, otherwise, they would let it go, even if they were taken advantage against. However, these twenty-five people represented the elite disciples’ team of the Shengjing Sect, but unexpectedly, they were easily played at in other people’s hand and maliciously tricked, how could they possibly tolerate this?

”Senior Brother, forgive our incompetence. We are willing to be punished by the Sect.”

”Humph!” Regarding w.a.n.gyue siblings, Jianglu only gave them a cold humph. ”You’ll get your punishment when we’re back at the Central Region. Now I want you to fully concentrate on the current matter!”

”Yes!”

For their failure, Jianglu didn’t criticize w.a.n.gyue Siblings too much. In the final a.n.a.lysis, it was ultimately his blunder for letting his two a.s.sistants to face the much reputed w.a.n.g Lu; at that time, he should’ve personally come forward. However, who would’ve thought that the trial would turn out to be like that? According to Jianglu’s speculation, if the compet.i.tion were based on spell casting and combat ability, w.a.n.gyue siblings would not lose to w.a.n.g Lu, but who would’ve thought that it was a pure compet.i.tion in the game of scheming! Moreover, at that time, they did make a relatively standard choice. In the handbook issued by the Shengjing Sect to its disciples, it was indeed written that if they were to tread an unknown path, they should as far as possible avoid the team leader to personally venture to explore.

However, such a thing could only happen once. From the second trial, Jianglu would personally challenge the next seven trials, and would not give w.a.n.g Lu the same opportunity.

Of course, on scheming, he knew that he was not w.a.n.g Lu’s opponent, but in his many years of Immortal Cultivation, he had a lot of experience in dealing with many opponents that were extraordinary in scheming—otherwise, he would not be selected as the team leader.

Let’s see what happens in the second trial.

Jianglu’s gaze firmly locked on the not far away w.a.n.g Lu.

”Tsk, feels like I’m being stared at by a pervert.”

w.a.n.g Lu suddenly frowned, sighed, and then looked up to the sky. A layer of haze has gradually enveloped the mountains.

”Brother w.a.n.g’s talent is outstanding, thus, inevitably, you’ll become everyone’s target.” Hai Yunfan smiled for a moment, and then became serious and said with a sinking voice, ”Brother w.a.n.g, I always feel like there’s something strange with this trial of the eight virtues. For example, on the filial piety trial, although there’s indeed the concept of filial piety, but…”

w.a.n.g Lu waved his hand. ”Let’s not think about this first, even if they were just gimmicks, the trial is after all placed in front of a level pa.s.sage that we can’t just skip through. This is nothing more than a reminder that, to pa.s.s these trials, one might not necessarily need moral virtues.”

Then, w.a.n.g Lu pa.s.sed his voice through primordial spirit.

”Moreover, I feel like the victory in the filial piety gate is not a victory at all because I’m better than the others, but instead, it’s because Shengjing Sect has more people than us…”
