Chapter 1557
1557 So scared of death
It was because she was afraid that she would kill or cripple him with a single slap or scare him, so Ling Chuxi was not even willing to use the great scattered hands. Who knew that just by showing off her movement technique, she would still scare him to this extent. A mistake, it was really a mistake.
It wasn’t that Ling Chuxi had never seen people who were afraid of death before, but it was the first time she had seen someone who was so afraid of death and had such strength.
On the side, Liang wanhuai looked at he busi with interest. Ever since he had learned how to play the pig to eat the Tiger, he had been successful in every endeavor. However, if it was this old man in front of him, he probably wouldn’t even be of any use.
This old man was too cautious and too afraid of death. Of course, this was understandable. He had cultivated his whole life and finally reached the peak of sky origin stage. It took him 50 years to reach the threshold of Grandmaster realm. He naturally could not bear to have any accidents at this time. It was reasonable to be cautious.
However, Ling Chuxi was so depressed that she wanted to cry. This old man did not have any intention of attacking at all. Instead, his defense was getting tighter and tighter. Occasionally, he would only use 50% of his strength when he struck with his sword. The other 50% was obviously used to save her life and escape. If she fought like this for a year, she would probably not be able to comprehend even a little bit of sword intent.
“Old man he, are you really not going to make a move?” Ling Chuxi was angry. She could not be bothered with the matter of comprehending the sword intent and was ready to use her killing move.
“Hmph, don’t think that I don’t know what you’re thinking. You’re deliberately showing weakness to reveal a flaw. Once I attack, you’ll use all your killing moves. If I’m even the slightest bit careless, I’ll die today without a doubt!” He busi said triumphantly. It seemed like his understanding of pretending to be a pig to eat a Tiger was no less than Liang wanhuai ‘s.
However, this time, he really thought too much.
Ling Chuxi had suppressed her cultivation because she was afraid of hurting him or scaring him. She really did not have the intention of pretending to be a pig to eat a Tiger.
Ling Chuxi finally understood how this old man had become the number one expert below the Grandmaster level. It was not because of how good his innate talent was, nor was it because of how strong his cultivation was, but because he was afraid of death. He was really too afraid of death, so he was careful in every way and lived longer than anyone else. Even if he had to drag on his life, he would drag all the other experts of the same age to death. Thus, he became the number one expert below the Grandmaster level.
“Do you think you won’t die if you don’t make a move?” Ling Chuxi did not want to waste any more time and coldly said.
He busi could clearly feel the cold killing intent coming from Ling Chuxi’s body. He gripped the hilt of his sword tightly with full concentration. He didn’t say anything because he didn’t want to be distracted.
To be so cautious, or to be more accurate, to be so afraid of death, this old man could be considered a weirdo.
“Cough!” With a Dragon’s Roar, he used the grey abyss sword technique again.
With the rapid increase in her cultivation, Ling Chuxi’s mentality had also undergone a subtle change. She was no longer as worried about Ming cangye and Ming yewu as before. After all, with her current cultivation, even if she could not defeat them, could she not escape?
She had long understood that if she kept hiding her strength, she would gradually lose the heart of a warrior and never become a true Supreme Master.
Only a stronger enemy and greater pressure would allow her to break through continuously and comprehend stronger martial arts.
Under the heaven-shaking sword power, the surging waves river water seemed to boil. It was like a giant white Dragon, roaring and rolling under his feet.
However, although the sound of the waves crashing against the shore was like thunder striking the ground, everyone’s hearts were calm. It was as if the moment Ling Chuxi drew her sword, their minds were involuntarily drawn in and immersed in the boundless sword intent.
