Chapter 1982 - You Want Me To Give Up On My Money? (2/2)

While the two of the ring was changing He Jingxuan could discern Bai Ruanqing’s intents, so he refrained fro the offense Instead, what he did was to slowly back away

He wouldn’t reveal any opening that would allow Bai Ruanqing to breach his defense Until he was absolutely guaranteed of victory, he wouldn’t make a move

Such a counter Xuan nodded

It seexuan’s instincts were quite sharp too It was no wonder why he could becost the core disciples His state of mind was indeed not too bad

The current hirasses for the ideal opportunity to slay his opponent!

Any other opponent would have leaped at the opportunity to clai on However, that would have given Bai Ruanqing the opening she desperately needed in order to launch a decisive attack too

On the other hand, if he were to drag the battle out, Bai Ruanqing would have no choice but to bide her ti on was their patience

Both sides traded a fes, but they were all shallow attacks that left no opening for the other to exploit Seeing how He Jingxuan refused to et anxious

She had never been a patient person, and all of this waiting and shallow clashes were really grating on her nerves

Right now!

He Jingxuan keenly perceived that Bai Ruanqing was getting more and more impatient by the moment, and her movements fully reflected her mood as well He knew that the opportunity to strike had finally surfaced itself

Amidst the bizarre calmness of the battle, he abruptly dashed forth to strike down Bai Ruanqing

It was as if a predator pouncing on a prey The cal uard As soon as the true hunt began, his speed surged to the extent where one could hardly perceive his ritted her teeth tightly together as she shot out her sword

It was true that she had been getting lect to abide by her Senior Uncle’s teaching All this while, she had been keeping a close lookout for He Jingxuan’s xuan’s sword stabbed right through Bai Ruanqing’s chest, but at the saed into He Jingxuan’s head

Padah!

He Jingxuan was dead

But Bai Ruanqing had been defeated too

The battle had ended in a draw!

She’s still too weak… Zhang Xuan shook his head

He had already pointed a way out for her, so he thought that she would be able to achieve victory… But who could have thought that she would end with a !

It was lucky that she wasn’t his student, or else he would have surely given her a good tongue-lashi+ng!

But speaking of which, it sure was a huge pity She could have taken thecore disciple as well, but all of that ers due to her weakness

In contrast to Zhang Xuan’s frustration, the croas utterly silent Everyone was shocked beyond words

It was apparent that all of the was actually able to equal He Jingxuan in a battle

Watching as the two figures on the dueling ring dissipated into light fragratulations, you really have a good granddaughter!”

“Hahaha, it seehtened recently!” Elder Bai Ye replied cheerfully

Of course, he was proud that his granddaughter was able to fight on equal grounds with the number one core disciple

“She’s indeed forainst the core disciples to take their Sword Pavilion Coins It doesn’t reflect too well on you either!” the old man said

It would be fine just to have a normal duel, but to bet money on that as well… That would underst fellow core disciples!

You are already the Third Elder of the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion, and yet, your granddaughter is actually so desperate forwith others Those who heard of the randdaughter!

“This… I’ll ive her an earful later on!” Elder Bai Ye replied

“Old Master, I’ said worriedly

Those words made Elder Bai Ye ponder deeply for a moment

Indeed The randdaughter’s achieve

“You’re right I should deal with it right away” Elder Bai Ye nodded as he took a step forward to address the crowd, “Please listen to me!”

His voice was loud and clear, and it immediately drew everyone’s attention to hi hasyour Sword Pavilion Coins is just a jest Her ht so as to ensure the fairness of the battle Since it’s just a jest, you need not take it too seriously!” Elder Bai Ye said with a chuckle

“Need not take it too seriously?” As soon as Elder Bai Ye said those words, a displeased voice echoed frohts do you have to tell them not to take it too seriously? Who do you think you are?”

Elder Bai Ye turned his head over with a frown, only to see a youngover

“Well… I am only an ordinary core disciple However, I believe that these are the thoughts that Bai Ruanqing had in mind when she proposed the bet to her opponents May I knoho are you?”

Seeing how this young rily, Elder Bai Ye’s first reaction was to reveal his true ide However, after a moment of hesitation, he still decided to conceal his identity and probe on first

As an elder, it was best for hi the disciples, or else it ht reflect badly on hiood friend of Bai Ruanqing’s! My words represent her will!” Zhang Xuan replied “Since it’s a bet, whatis there if the other party doesn’t pay up? This is no longer an issue about the bet but the funda the sanctity of promises over here, ould take them seriously in the future? If you don’t wish to pay up, sure! Just see if ive up on the ly earned just like that?
