Chapter 566 (2/2)

“That Luo Li’s always by Mu Chen’s side. She’s also extremely formidable, and can even be described as only showing the tip of the iceberg. I feel that she might even be no weaker than Wen Qingxuan,” replied Mu Feng.

“How can the next Empress of the Luo God Clan be one bit ordinary?” muttered Ji Xuan. Nevertheless, upon remembering that Luo Li was always accompanying Mu Chen’s side, despite his deeply concealed and reserved nature, he could not help flashing a shade of darkness across his face, while feeling extremely uncomfortable within his heart. This state of mind and emotion should be one of extreme envy and jealousy.

Ever since their first meeting during the Spiritual Road, the youthful girl’s quiet and serene nature, as well her her bright, resplendent eyes, coupled with her radiant hair that appeared just like a silvery river, had caused his heart to throb exceedingly hard.

Within the Spiritual Road, Mu Chen had become an irreconcilable enemy for Ji Xuan. The latter knew that the reason more of less was due to that young girl that would always quietly stand by side of the former, regardless of anything.

Regardless of what he did, Ji Xuan was unable to garner the care and concern from the young girl. Regardless of what he did, the faint smile at the corner of the young girl’s mouth would not blossom for his sake.

This was something he refused to accept. He had been the heaven-gifted son since young, with his outstanding talent causing him to be as dazzling as the radiant sun. Despite this, however, this was the first time he had felt the feeling of defeat from people not caring even the slightest bit about his outstanding talent.

Since he was unable to make her care about him, he would make sure that she would firmly remember him, regardless of whether it be of hatred or killing intent…

Therefore, he had schemed against Luo Li in the Spiritual Road, forcing the usually calm Mu Chen to become completely enraged, before utilising all means and ways to create that Blood Calamity and expel the latter for the Spiritual Road.

On the day when Mu Chen was expelled from the Spiritual Road, Ji Xuan was standing in the far distance as he took in this scene. At that moment, he was able to see the calm expression within the youth’s gaze as he departed. However, it was that calm and peaceful expression that caused Ji Xuan’s expression to turn dark.

At that moment, Luo Li was also present, merely that she was calmly watching Mu Chen leave, never turning her gaze around from the start to the end. Only after Mu Chen had left did she turn around and leave, leaving a slender, elegant back figure in Ji Xuan’s eyes.

It was that day that an extraordinary level of fury and anger surged within Ji Xuan.

He had achieved his target and forced Mu Chen out of the Spiritual Road, and had appeared considerably perfect in the eyes of the majority. After all, within the Spiritual Road, one’s methods wasn’t important, as they only cared about the results.

Nevertheless, Ji Xuan wasn’t one bit happy. The calm expression on Mu Chen’s face as he left and Luo Li’s figure as she had turned and left caused Ji Xuan to not feel even a sliver of happiness.

Furthermore, after Mu Chen was expelled from the Spiritual Road, Ji Xuan did not see Luo Li again, not until the finale of the Spiritual Road.

The young girl still wore a long black robe, with her long silvery hair falling all the way down to her slender waist. Standing alone, she finally swept a light look towards Ji Xuan with her bright, glass-like pupils.

It was only a glance, yet it had caused Ji Xuan to involuntarily slightly straighten himself up, wanting to completely display all of his dazzling aspects.

Nevertheless, all of that was ignored by the young girl. Under the gazes of countless outstanding geniuses, she slowly raised the long sword within her hand, before point the tip straight towards Ji Xuan.

Not a single word had yet to leave her mouth. As her silvery hair fluttered apart, she had already unleashed her attack.

Swift, fierce, vicious.

In the end, both of them were mutually injured.

The young girl had not said a single word at all. She had given up her qualifications to contend for the Championship, using it to cause Ji Xuan to be unable to obtain that honor. She had used a method to tell Ji Xuan and everyone present about the anger and fury she had suppressed within her heart.

At that moment, Ji Xuan had retreated in a somewhat miserable fashion. Looking towards the young girl, whose body was similarly covered in wounds, a killing intent that would be able to blot the skies had gushed from his heart in that instant. This wasn’t directed to Luo Li, but towards Mu Chen.

That fellow merely had the luck to meet Luo Li earlier than me! It should be me that the girl should be willing to give up everything for! It’s all because of that fellow, Mu Chen!

Without him, he, Ji Xuan, would have become the the greatest victor in the Spiritual Road!

Regardless of glory or the girl.

Creak.

Ji Xuan slowly clenched his hands tightly, causing green veins to squirm and dance across his gemstone-like skin. The rumbling sounds and moist air brought about by the waterfall caused him to gradually escape from those memories.

However, his eyes grew increasingly ice-cold, with the chilling intent present causing Mu Feng, who was beside him, to shutter.

Raising his head, Ji Xuan looked into the far distance with his ice-cold gaze.

Luo Li, this time, I’ll step on Mu Chen right before your eyes. I will let you know that compared to me, Mu Chen’s nothing!

Regardless of ability or strength, I’m stronger than Mu Chen!

Therefore, only I am the most suitable for you!
