Chapter 1022: Well Written Script!

For the Fourth and Fifth Elder, that night was not a normal one.

It was impossible for them to sleep. It was already good that they didn’t die from being too nervous.

From the rumor that had been circulating all day outside combined with the intel they had currently grasped, both had reached the same conclusion – that they would be the ones who would die!

However, for them, who had reached such a high position, they refused to just wait for death. As a result, after repeated mental struggles, they made the same decision – to be the one to make the first move!

“They’ve both set out, their targets being each other’s residences. They didn’t bring many people. Looks like they’re both planning a quiet attack.”

As the two elders made their move, Qiu Muxue’s ‘eyes’ immediately reported back.

“Then we better guide them well, can’t let them miss each other.” Bai Xiaofei smirked, ready to watch a good drama.

“Should I make an appearance then?” The Third Elder eagerly asked. After killing the First and Second Elder, his strength had advanced even more than during the past several years. He felt that if he handled the remaining two, he could be a match for an awakened one!

Since the Third Elder volunteered himself, Bai Xiaofei had no reason to refuse.

“Father, although there is a high probability that they will fight, don’t let your guard down. They aren’t smart but aren’t fools either. If they realize something is wrong, you may have to fight both of them at the same time.” Bai Xiaofei wore a worried expression.

Hearing this, the Third Elder also frowned in apprehension. At that moment, Qiu Muxue piped up.

“If you are willing to believe me, eat this. It can improve your strength by at least half once you start engaging in combat.” Qiu Muxue presented a pill.

Looking at the pill in her palm, the Third Elder hesitated.

“Oh well, I knew you wouldn’t believe me so easily. It’s fortunate that I came prepared.” She took out an identical pill.

“These two pills are exactly the same. You choose one, and I’ll eat the other one right here and now.” Qiu Muxue said and blinked innocently.

The Third Elder burst out laughing. Then, he appeared as random as possible as he chose the one he thought to be safe.

“Honorable Saintess, you are too serious. We are in the same boat now, how can I not trust you?” he said and put away the pill.

Qiu Muxue ate the other one without hesitation and said, “You are willing to believe, that’s your tolerance. I, of course, still have to show my sincerity and let you know that you haven’t chosen the wrong partner.”

Seeing that she really ate the pill, the Third Elder’s anxious heart settled down.

“Well said! However… I still don’t quite understand one thing,” he said and paused.

“Elder, feel free to say it.” Qiu Muxue smiled.

“You have awakened, so why borrow my hand? At present, no one in our clan is your opponent,” the Third Elder voiced his doubt.
