Chapter 594 (2/2)
Mu Chen looked at the Academy Plaque for a brief moment, before smiling. “At the very least, I’m not affected by it. With her talents, it was natural for her to be dazzling. I have never requested for her to restrain herself.”
“Perhaps she was well-aware of how dazzling she was. Thus, ever since she entered the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, she has been trying her best to restrain herself and quietly stood beside me. However, I hope that she can reveal herself as she pleases at times.”
Wen Qingxuan looked at Mu Chen, whose gaze was exceptionally gentle at the moment. She felt the deep affection Mu Chen had for Luo Li and on the spot, she went silent for a brief moment, before saying, “She restrained herself out of concern for your feelings. She did not want to bring any unnecessary troubles for you.”
Mu Chen lightly nodded his head. He raised his head as he looked at the glimpse of the light ray shooting from the tiny crack in the forest, and extended his hand as it passed through the light. A heavy voice, along with unswerving determination and self-confidence, rang out.
“I know how dazzling is she. Perhaps in the future, there might be an even more powerful figure standing between us. But no matter what, I will never give up. I have promised her that one day, I will become an absolute expert. At that time, no one will be able to obstruct me from holding her hands!”
The heavy and faint voice spread out in this forest, making Wen Qingxuan stunned. She lifted her head up and looked at the slender figure. The handsome youth had sunlight shining on his body, covering him in a layer of light. There wasn’t any fear or hesitation in his eyes. He was like a warrior that would blaze a new trail, pacing forth and would neither regret nor hesitate.
“Absolute expert…”
Wen Qingxuan’s slender fingers were fiddling with her hair as she muttered to herself. Her gaze was a little complicated. There were too many talented people in this world, but how many of those were able to become an absolute expert, intimidating the entire Great Thousand World?
However, the unswerving gaze from the youth before her slightly shook her heart as she became a little stunned. After that, she felt Mu Chen’s gaze looking over at her direction and stopped at her face.
Wen Qingxuan sobered up as a rarely seen smear of redness surfaced from her charming face. She immediately avoided Mu Chen’s gaze as she cast her lips aside. “Talk about becoming an absolute expert after you defeat Ji Xuan, that fellow isn’t that simple.”
Mu Chen smiled as he nodded, “Indeed, he isn’t simple. However, it isn’t a simple matter for him to defeat me as well.”
“Self-confidence, I like it.” Wen Qingxuan gracefully stood up as she chuckled, patting her hand on Mu Chen’s shoulders.
“You like guys as well?” Mu Chen said in amazement. However, the instant he spoke those words, he had a bad feeling.
Just as expected, Wen Qingxuan that stood before him had her brows narrowed as she grabbed Mu Chen collar and stuck her ice-frost expression over as she gritted her teeth, “What did you say?!”
Mu Chen dryly laughed as he drifted his sight away.
“Your mother, I only dislike being close to guys. If I meet a guy I like, I will naturally follow him obediently. It’s not as if I have a problem!”
Looking at the blushing Wen Qingxuan, Mu Chen awkwardly rubbed his nose. He had stepped onto Wen Qingxuan’s Achilles heel. Otherwise, how would someone like her to use ‘your mother, I’ as a form of addressing herself?
“Okay, fine, I’m in the wrong.”
Mu Chen raised up his hand. He gave Wen Qingxuan a glance and was a little curious about her earlier words. He was very curious, how charming would such a prideful girl like Wen Qingxuan be if she was quiet and sweet when she fell for a guy?
“Hmph.”
Wen Qingxuan coldly snorted as she calmed down. However, when she realized that she was pulling onto Mu Chen’s collar and nearly stuck up to him, she hastily released her grip and pushed him away. However, the redness on her face was much denser and her heartbeat increased. She could only curse at this damnable fellow that broke her calmness.
“Let’s go as well.”
Mu Chen no longer dared to provoke Wen Qingxuan as he suggested with a dry laugh.
Wen Qingxuan snorted again as she no longer bothered about Mu Chen and flew out first.
Mu Chen wryly smiled as he moved as well, appearing in the sky over the forest. Thereafter, he formed seals with his hands and a colossal ring of light spread out from his palm and rapidly expanded.
Whooooosh! Whooosh!
As the green ring of light expanded, the spike trees in the forest beneath him turned into black rays of light as they flew up into the light halo in his hand.
A few minutes later, more than half of this forest was emptied.
Seeing the scene, Mu Chen finally stopped as the dark-green halo disappeared. He breathed out a long breath as he shifted his gaze towards the northwest direction, a chill circulated in his black pupils.
He had a premonition that it will soon be the finals.
Let us fight for real this time, Ji Xuan!
