Chapter 135
Will Of The Heavens
Grand Senior Sister turned to look down at Li Chengfeng, who quickly said, “Li Chengfeng of Hidden Sword Court sincerely requests for Grand Senior Sister to show some compa.s.sion and save a man's life!”
She looked at him expressionlessly. After a pause, she said, “Anything else?”
He was stunned for a second, then added, “Please show mercy and save my good brother's life!” Then, he kowtowed so hard a 'thud' could be heard despite the thick layer of snow.
She looked at him calmly, then turned and left silently. When there was no sound, he looked up and realised there was no one in front of him. Not even footprints in the snow, as if it was all a hallucination!
His chest tightened as he felt a wave of chills taking over his being!
“Grand Senior Sister!” he screamed hoa.r.s.ely and hopelessly, “Grand Senior Sister, you can save a man's life so effortlessly, why not just spare a bit of your time? If you can save my brother's life, I, Li Chengfeng, promise to repay you with three favours! I will do whatever you want!”
Li Chengfeng's screams travelled far into the mountains but the only reply he received was the howling wind. The wind and snow quickly blurred his vision as he stared into the whiteness ahead of him. His chest tightened as he sobbed and kowtowed loudly in front of the entrance, “GRand Senior Sister, please save him! Please show mercy!”
Li Chengfeng felt even more humiliated to do this compared to Huang Nishang's revenge. How he wished he had Grand Senior Sister's capabilities! If he was stronger, he would not have to bend his knees or lower his head!
He kowtowed hard on the ground audibly, his forehead turning purple-green, when he heard a flat voice. “Three favours?”
His head jerked up. Grand Senior Sister had appeared before him once again, standing nearby and watching him quietly. When he saw her facing diagonally to him, he begged, “Yes, if you're willing to help, I will repay you with three favours as long as they are all within my capabilities!”
Grand Senior Sister's piercing yet calm gaze seemed to pierce right through his heart. “You'll do anything?”
Their eyes locked as he said with utmost resolution, “Anything! I'll do it!”
She looked away and walked past him. After walking a distance, she turned around at the stunned Li Chengfeng, “Are we not saving him anymore?”
Li Chengfeng's heart skipped a beat as he leapt excitedly. However, having lost all feeling in his legs, he fell pathetically back into the snow. It was humiliating.
Even the Li Chengfeng with thick skin felt himself blush. He looked up to see her eyes still as water, as if to her, he was no different to a wild animal she met in the forest. He was nothing to her.
Li Chengfeng took a deep breath and moved his hardened limbs. At this point, she had already turned and walked a distance away. She still left no footprints. While her movements looked slow and graceful, she seemed to cover a huge distance within a few moments. Afraid, Li Chengfeng quickly ma.s.saged his stiff knees and limped after her.
Along the way, Grand Senior Sister gilded ahead while he limped behind after her. In the beginning, he struggled to keep up due to his stiff limbs. After some time, with blood back in his limbs, he sped up his pace until breaking out into a sprint only to realise he still could not keep up. The distance between them maintained. He could not close the gap between them no matter what he did.
Li Chengfeng was privately shocked. Just from this observation, he realised how powerful her cultivation abilities must be.
After speeding along for a while, they arrived by afternoon. He was in a fatigued state but held on to bring her to his quarters. Far away from his house, he used up his last burst of energy to scream, “Yuehan, Yuehan!”
