Chapter 690 People Think I Am Targeting Him, That Is So Swee (2/2)

If Luo Xiao wanted to challenge w.a.n.g Lu, they at least should be in the same position first. And to achieve this position, w.a.n.g Lu was basing on his previous numerous brilliant victories… From his appearance at Spirit Sword Sect to the exchange meeting with the disciples from Ten Thousand Arts Sect to now, w.a.n.g Lu had subverted people's common sense again and again. He kept on triumphing in the face of all his enemies, which made him qualified to be looked at favorably by Daoist He Tu and the others that they entrusted him with such a heavy task despite he was just a Jindan Stage.

On the other hand, Luo Xiao's outstanding performance was only a recent matter, and it was only this ten successive wins in the Grand Compet.i.tion. Moreover, these ten successive wins were borrowed from w.a.n.g Lu's success. In this case, what would be the need for w.a.n.g Lu to play the challenger game with Luo Xiao?

As w.a.n.g Lu's report gradually came to an end, the look on Luo Xiao's face was constantly changing. From the initial dismay to indignation, to gradually calm down and even showing a gentle smile.

Finally, after reading the report, w.a.n.g Lu patted Luo Xiao on the shoulder in a gesture befitted of an elder. ”Keep working hard, Luo Xiao, we look forward to more of your wonderful performance!”

One was called we, while the other one was you. These two p.r.o.nouns marked the boundaries of their different cla.s.ses.

Luo Xiao seemed to have stabilized his mind and said with a broad smile, ”I will certainly not disappoint the great expectation.”

At this point, the Purple Cloud Hall finally had the atmosphere of guests and hosts having a good time. Seeing Luo Xiao's fast transformation in mood, w.a.n.g Lu no longer said anything more and just whispered a sentence, ”Do your best, young man.” Then he no longer paid attention to him. Turning around, he announced the end of today's report session, which was to be followed by a splendid entertainment show.

The entertainment shows were really wonderful. The singing and dancing performances arrange personally by Daoist Master Miao Yan made the cultivators who were about to get hemorrhoids from grinding their b.u.t.tocks against their seat became addicted to the show and felt that the previous hards.h.i.+ps were worthwhile.

However, several key characters of the ceremony had already left the venue ahead of schedule.

With w.a.n.g Lu's extremely busy schedule, dedicating half a day to the ceremony for Luo Xiao was already extremely generous. To spend more time watching singing and dancing performances was simply a dereliction of duty.

On the other hand, Luo Xiao was apparently not in the mood to enjoy the show, so he left the Purple Cloud Hall after he found an excuse.

However, before he walked out of the hall, he was surrounded by a group of bald-headed zen cultivators.

”Senior Brother Luo Xiao! Are you okay?”

Luo Xiao was shocked to find that they were all his fellow students in Hua Yan School.

”Why are you guys here?”

A tall bald-headed man couldn't help but smile. ”Today is your big celebration day, Senior Brother, how can we not come?” After that, he sighed, ”But, looking at the ceremony, it seems to be different than what we think.”

Someone among them chimed in, ”I heard that there's a contradiction between you and Daoist Master w.a.n.g Lu and that you have been targeted by him. Is that true?”

Someone beside him replied, ”Senior Brother Luo Xiao has a positive att.i.tude and generous personality. He can make friends with anyone. How could he offend w.a.n.g Lu without any reason? I think it's all just rumors.”

”But I just listened to an elder whispering in the hall that said Daoist Master w.a.n.g Lu's report was aimed at Senior Brother Luo Xiao… Senior Brother, is that true?”

Luo Xiao smiled and said, ”Don't listen to them. If there's a contradiction, why should Daoist Master w.a.n.g Lu give me such a grand ceremony? I'm ashamed actually.”

”Senior Brother, you are too modest. Why is there any shame? Your ten successive wins are unique now. Although those Daoist Masters of Deity Stage and Supremes of Unity Stage had profound cultivation base, none could accomplish what you have done in your situation.”

Luo Xiao was just about to speak when he heard an eager younger brother said, ”Senior Brother, Daoist Master w.a.n.g Lu has given you such a big ceremony. Does it mean that he likes you very much? Will he continue to reuse you in the future?”

Luo Xiao couldn't help but smile bitterly. ”I am now the disciple of Four Element Supreme, so I don't really need the attention of a Daoist Master of Jindan Stage so much…”

”Daoist Master w.a.n.g Lu is not an ordinary Jindan, he can do many things that a Daoist Master of Jindan Stage couldn't do. With his help, your path of cultivation would surely be much smoother, Senior Brother!”

Luo Xiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard his fellow disciples begin to discuss with interest how to make himself look good in front of w.a.n.g Lu to gain his favor in the future.

After a while, when the enthusiastic discussion had faded a little, Luo Xiao suddenly said, ”What would you guys think if I say I want to challenge w.a.n.g Lu?”

In response to this was dozens of shocked look.

”Senior Brother, are you kidding?”

Luo Xiao thought for a moment. ”Do you guys think it's impossible? He is a Jindan, and I am also a Jindan. There's absolutely no gap between us.”

One of the youngest among them hesitantly said, ”But he is w.a.n.g Lu.”

He is w.a.n.g Lu, and you are not… The words of this junior brother of him, who had always been known for his frankness, could not help but make Luo Xiao really depressed.(Could also mean behave yourself)
