2249 Chapter 2249-taking advantage verbally
Ling Chuxi didn’t pay much attention to them. For now, she would let them be disgusted and let the facts speak for themselves. Just wait and see!
“Senior brother Zhao, how can you say that!” Zi Yin couldn’t bear to listen any longer and angrily said.
“Junior Sister Zi, even though what we’re saying isn’t pleasant to hear, we’re doing this for Junior Sister Ling’s own good. If something happens to her while she’s in the inner realm, how can we face master?” Senior martial brother Zheng said with a fake smile.
“Don’t worry. Sister Chuxi doesn’t need your protection at all. ” Zi Yin said in disdain. How could she not know how strong Ling Chuxi’s combat power was? If they really encountered danger, it was hard to say who would protect who.
“Humph, Junior Sister apprentice Zi, don’t think that you’re so strong just because you’ve advanced to the sage level. You’ve only just entered the sect. It’s already a mistake for you to protect yourself, but you still want to protect others?” Senior brother he had misunderstood Zi Yin’s meaning and sneered.
“Senior brother he, do you really think that sister Chuxi needs our protection …” Zi Yin felt indignant for Ling Chuxi and was about to reveal her true combat strength when she was gently pulled back by Ling Chuxi. Seeing the look in her eyes, she swallowed the words that were just about to come out of her mouth.
“I don’t need anyone’s protection. I leave my life and death to fate. You guys don’t have any objections, right?” Ling Chuxi said coldly to Zhao Dahai and the others.
On the surface, the ethereal sect’s residence was harmonious. In reality, the Xie family and Tong family had ill intentions towards the Chi clan. The Hanqing pool’s inner circle was not made of steel either. In addition, Xie Feiying and Zhuo fanglin were always playing tricks behind the scenes. Therefore, before she figured out a full-elemental cultivation technique and advanced to the sage level, Ling Chuxi did not want to reveal her true strength too early.
Moreover, other than these people, she had always been wary of Feng lengsong. The first time they met, Feng lengsong’s shocked and probing gaze with some inexplicable enmity had left a deep impression on her. Ling Chuxi had a feeling that one day, this Feng lengsong would bring her quite a bit of trouble.
“Senior brother Jie, senior brother Tong, rules are set by people. They can’t be changed. If you really don’t agree, why don’t we go to …” Chi hanbing said.
Elder Jie and elder Tong were stunned. Chi hanbing was probably going to find granny Ling again. To be honest, they really didn’t want to meet that old monster.
“Grandfather, elder Tong, since martial uncle Ling has said that her life and death are up to fate and martial uncle Chi has no objections, why don’t we give her a chance?” Jie Feiying interrupted.
Everyone was stunned. Ye Xiaoqi was not the only gossip queen in ethereal sect residence. Everyone knew that Xie Feiying and Ling Chuxi were not on good terms. They also guessed that Xie Feiying was most likely behind Zhuo fanglin’s provocation of Ling Chuxi.
Logically speaking, the two of them should be like fire and water, so why was she speaking up for Ling Chuxi today?
“That’s right, martial nephew Jie is right. My life and death are up to fate. I will take responsibility for my own matters. Please give me this opportunity. ” Ling Chuxi guessed that Jie Feiying most likely did not have good intentions, but she still followed her lead and said. Of course, he still had to take advantage of her verbally.
Hearing the three words “martial nephew Jie,” Jie Feiying felt uncomfortable as if her heart was pierced by a needle. “I’ll let you be proud for a while. When we get to ethereal inner territory, you’ll have to bear the consequences.”
