Chapter 399: You Don’t Know What is Good for You
“Hmph! You must not know the heights and depths of the heavens and earth to overestimate your own abilities like this. I advise the both of you to think through this matter properly before you make a decision. It will do you good to not follow in Shang Yuan Country’s footsteps,” said Ren Youran eerily. Since they had already ripped off each other’s masks, there was no point in him pretending to be a noble person any longer. A vast surge of Battle Qi seeped through his body.
The branches of the sweet olive tree in the courtyard moved even though there was no wind blowing. Tens of thousands of beautiful flower petals floated through the air like snowflakes before falling to the ground.
“So it was indeed you people who used underhanded methods against Shang Yuan Country.” Even though she already long had her suspicions, hearing such words from Ren Youran himself still caused Ling Chuxi to be shocked and disgusted. Ren Youran was previously citizen of Nan Xia Country. Leaving aside the fact that he had abandoned his own country, now he was even helping a tyrant execute abuse and had thoroughly became a dog for Ding Lin Country. Ren Youran’s actions caused Ling Chuxi to be thoroughly disgusted with him.
“If you do not know what is good for you, it will be your turn next,” threatened Ren Youran in a cold and stern voice.
An enormous surge of pressure with a force that was difficult to contend with came forward in an attacking motion. Ling Chuxi did not shirk back at all. There was a little bit of Battle Qi condensed at her fingertips as spirals of Qi flashed past her and created a whirlpool under the Turning Cloud Gesture.
Next to her, Xiao Tianying stood up and sent a surge of gushing Battle Qi forward to add to the churning whirlpool beneath the Turning Cloud Gesture.
The both of them confronted Ren Youran without any fear. The air in the courtyard became as cold as ice.
As Ren Youran looked at the condensation at Ling Chuxi’s fingertips, he felt waves of shock in his heart. Her ability to control her Battle Qi to this extent was so shocking. With Ren Youran’s cultivation ability, he too could do this. But even if one’s body and meridians had gone through Heavenly Lightning Striking The Body, it would be difficult to endure this kind of usage of Battle Qi. If the ability to control this particular flow of Battle Qi was even slightly weaker than required, the Battle Qi would erupt and damage the cultivator’s muscles and meridians. So even he didn’t dare try out such a method so easily.
But Ling Chuxi’s expression was so relaxed and at ease. It was as if she did not feel even a tiny bit of danger with using her Battle Qi in this manner. How was it possible for her to have such exquisite control of her Battle Qi?
Ren Youran was extremely shocked. He did not have much certainty of winning a battle with Ling Chuxi in addition to Xiao Tianying like this.
“The two of you may leave.” Ren Youran withdrew his Battle Qi slowly. However, a chilling cold and gloomy expression remained on his face. “Send off the guests.”
Ling Chuxi and Xiao Tianying withdrew their Battle Qi as well. They then departed following the same path they had used to enter earlier.
After exiting the compound of Wu Feng Hall, a few carriages were waiting for them at the road junction.
“Miss Ling.”
Upon seeing Ling Chuxi, the envoy and Li Shaoqiu welcomed her with delight. He was really worried that Ling Chuxi would not be able to endure the intimidation and temptation and would make the same decision Ren Youran did back then to betray Nan Xia Country.
“Chuxi, are you all right?” asked Ling Yichen and Baili Han as they welcomed her as well. After few days of recuperating, Baili Han’s wounds were much better. Ling Yichen had taken the medicinal pills so there was nothing too seriously wrong with him currently. But he could not use his Battle Qi for now.
“I’m fine. We must leave Ding Lin Country as soon as possible,” said Ling Chuxi urgently. Ren Youran would not just give up like this. Wu Feng Hall had even preyed on Shang Yuan Country whose national power had increased greatly over the years. What more would they do to Nan Xia Country?
“All right. We leave the city at dawn,” announced the envoy, well aware of the severity of the matter.
“Miss Ling, be careful on the road. Even after you have returned to within your country’s borders, you should not take anything lightly,” warned Xiao Tianying solemnly.
“Ptui ptui ptui! You crow’s beak. What kind of danger would there be once we have reached the borders of Nan Xia Country? I don’t believe that Ding Lin Country would dare to openly invade Nan Xia Country.” Li Shaoqiu openly pooh poohed Xiao Tianying’s words a few times. But secretly he thought to himself, ‘Sigh, this crow’s beak, whatever he says is always spot on. I should stay far away from him in the future.’
Ling Chuxi simply nodded. She knew that Xiao Tianying was not actually a crow’s beak. He was just someone who looked at problems a lot more thoroughly than others did.
