Chapter 961: Draw Your Sword
Every step Ling Wushang took released an invisible pressure that made people tremble in fear. His face was so calm and indifferent that no one could tell what he was thinking or feeling. However, Bi Xuanshan knew that the calmer he appeared, the angrier he actually was.
Ling Wushang slowly walked to Zhu Tianzhi and looked at him coldly. In a low voice, he calmly said, “Draw your sword.”
“Junior Brother Ling, what are you doing?” Zhu Tianzhi frowned and wanted to use his senior brother aura to counter Ling Wushang, “Is this your attitude towards your senior brother?”
“Draw your sword.” Ling Wushang repeated coldly.
“Ling Wushang, I know you’re not in a good mood after finding out that your sister had just been framed. However, this is not a reason for you to act recklessly. The matter has not been settled yet. What are you trying to do by openly provoking me?” Zhu Tianzhi met Ling Wushang’s cold gaze, but a feeling of fear rose in his heart, which surprised him. Immediately after, he shook his head gently and threw this feeling out. What was he afraid of? In terms of cultivation, he would not lose to Ling Wushang. If they were to really fight, who would truly be afraid of who?
“I’ll say it one last time. Draw your sword.” Ling Wushang narrowed his eyes slightly as his gaze became increasingly cold and dangerous. “Or, do you want to receive my sword with your bare hands?”
Zhu Tianzhi’s expression finally changed. He understood that Ling Wushang was not joking—he was really going to fight him there and then! How arrogant of him! Almost everyone from Flowing Clouds Sect was here—the disciples, elders, and the sect leader. Yet Ling Wushang disregarded their presence as he challenged Zhu Tianzhi.
Zhu Tianzhi looked up towards Bi Xuanshan who was not far away. He wanted to see how he would react, but Bi Xuanshan remained silent. His head was lowered and no one could tell his true intentions.
“Guardian Ling, what’s wrong with you? If you want to spar, now is not the time.” An elder spoke out to break the deadlock.
Ling Wushang did not look at the elder. Instead, he continued to speak indifferently. “Zhu Tianshi, haven’t you always believed that you are stronger than me? Come, take this sword of mine. I will withdraw from the next sect leader competition.”
These words were like water falling into hot oil, the provocation exploded with a loud bang. Everyone looked at Ling Wushang in shock. Did he really say those words?
The elders’ expressions changed drastically. Weren’t Ling Wushang’s words just too arrogant? To taunt Zhu Tianzhi with his sword and withdrawal from the sect leader competition?
“Guardian Ling, you...” Elder He had felt a little anxious, but now started to feel a little excited by the turn of events. Everyone knew of Zhu Tianzhi’s abilities: he was already in the realm of Heaven Essence, and Advance Stage too! So it was already expected that Zhu Tianzhi would be able to fight fair and square with Ling Wushang to become the sect leader. However, rather than rising up to the challenge, Ling Wushang was willing to walk away?
It wasn’t just Elder He who thought so, the others did too. Including Zhu Tianzhi himself!
Yan Rusong in the crowd was as anxious as an ant in a hot pot. How could Senior Uncle Ling say such words so easily? In his heart, only Ling Wushang was worthy of being the next sect leader.
Some disciples who supported Zhu Tianzhi were a little angry after hearing Ling Wushang’s words. Wasn’t he looking down on others too much? Who knew that he was so arrogant? To withdraw from the fight for the position of sect leader with just one strike? Who did he think he was? He spoke as if he was giving alms! If they were to really face each other, it wasn’t certain who would lose.
