Liu Xixi returned to her room alone, shouting angrily at the empty air:
“So, what’s the result?”
“He lied!”
“How could this be?!”
Liu Xixi’s pupils dilated in shock. She hadn’t expected Xia Jiuyuan to lie to her.
This shouldn’t be, her sixth sense should still be very accurate.
A muscular figure appeared beside her. He stroked Liu Xixi’s head and said,
“But he only lied about one thing. He wasn’t sent by their Zongzhu. He truly approached you with the sole intention of helping you…”
“How could this be??”
Liu Xixi slowly recovered, her mouth agape in surprise. She had thought, the moment she saw Xia Jiuyuan, she felt he wasn’t a bad person.
Now it seemed he wasn’t sent by Li Zongzhu. Could it be that he heard about her seclusion and came to help her with sincere intentions?
Liu Xixi was in the midst of self-reflection…
“I don’t understand why he’s so good to you; it’s pure goodwill…
Could this kid really be a good person?
We’ll see. This person seems fine for now. Just be careful with your interactions with him. But remember, that power of yours is too easy to lose control of. Be careful not to cause a major disaster.”
Liu Xixi’s hands clenched and unclenched, then clenched and unclenched again. In the end, she could only gaze at the moon alone, letting out a sigh,
“Sigh…”
………………
“Oh, I thought my brother had something important going on,” Mo Mo sniffed at the sweating Xia Jiuyuan, “turns out he went to find another woman.”
With that, she looked at Jun Liuhe,
“It’s good that you’re fine.”
Jun Liuhe scanned Xia Jiuyuan. Seeing that he hadn’t lost any parts, she closed her eyes again and began to meditate.
“Eh, tsk tsk.”
Mo Mo found Jun Liuhe’s attitude a bit perplexing, but she didn’t delve deeper. Instead, she said to Xia Jiuyuan,
“Compensate me. Today, Mo Mo wants to sleep in your arms!”
“No problem. I like Mo Mo and He He the most.”
“What do you mean, ‘like two people the most’??”
“Heh heh…”
Lucky Peak was like home. Coming home and seeing the lights still on, and being able to exchange a few words, was a kind of enjoyment.
The next day,
“Did you hear? That dissolute Peak Master from Lucky Peak has gotten another beauty.”
“Who is it?”
“You’d be scared to death if I told you…”
“Hey, tell me quickly. Could she be better than that Jun Liuhe from their Peak?”
“Martial Arts Competition number one, Liu Xixi!”
“How is that possible! You must be drunk. Liu Xixi wouldn’t tear him apart!”
“There are pictures as proof. Look at this recording stone…”
Xia Jiuyuan listened to the gossip all the way, his face dark.
“Jun JieJie, Brother must have done this for you. He sacrificed himself to find Liu Xixi to get information about her weaknesses, then tell you to help you win the championship!”
Although Jun Liuhe always maintained a cold expression, even she was a bit unable to hold it together after Mo Mo’s words.
“…I don’t need your brother to make such a big sacrifice.”
“Holy crap, don’t yell at me, I was wrong.”
Xia Jiuyuan immediately admitted his mistake. Duan Shahe put his arm around his shoulder, stifling a laugh, while Li Le kept his eyes down.
As they just entered the Main Peak competition area, they saw a little cutie rushing towards them, waving her hand,
“Xia—Jiu—Yuan—”
Immediately after, Li Le left a message, “I’m going to my match, bye everyone.” and left in a hurry.
Duan Shahe’s eyelids twitched as he muttered, “Seven days of competition, I can still slack off for two days if I think about it carefully. I’d better go back to catch up on sleep.”
Under everyone’s gaze, the adorable Liu Xixi rushed to the three of them.
“We meet again!”
“Tsk.” Mo Mo put down her canvas and small stool on the spot, seemingly inspired, while Jun Liuhe scrutinized Liu Xixi.
Xia Jiuyuan stiffly introduced the two girls to Liu Xixi, “Ah haha… We meet again. This one drawing is Mo Mo, and this is Jun Liuhe.” The intense gazes around him made him very uncomfortable.
“Oh… Hello, Mo Mo JieJie, hello, Jun JieJie. I just came to say hello, He He.”
Liu Xixi rubbed her head, looking cute, petite, and well-behaved, not at all like the first place winner of the Martial Arts Competition.
Mo Mo’s brush didn’t stop, she just subconsciously replied “Hello,”
Jun Liuhe nodded at Liu Xixi, then walked towards Ring No. 21.
“Jun JieJie, is your goal to be first?”
Liu Xixi suddenly called out to the departing Jun Liuhe.
Jun Liuhe stopped, slowly turned around, and nodded. Her movements were slow and leisurely, but they gave off a profound and unfathomable feeling.
“That might be a bit difficult…” Liu Xixi’s eyes blazed with fighting spirit, “I am very strong!”
“The stronger, the better.”
Jun Liuhe commented thus.
…
Below Ring No. 2,
A man holding a folding fan was eloquently speaking to another handsome man,
“Jing Su, I see that Liu Xixi is completely disrespecting you, ignoring your invitation, and instead seeking out a useless person, a dissolute young master…”
The handsome man, Jing Su, glanced at Yu Lu and shook his head.
“I don’t think someone as strong as me would be so foolish. Your vision is just like your strength, far too lacking.”
“Far too lacking?” Yu Lu angrily looked at the arrogant Jing Su in front of him, “I’m currently third, only one rank below you!”
“Your third place is temporary. In my opinion, Zhao Tiankuo and Jiang Manyue are both stronger than you—”
“Yu Lu, Sixth place Zhao Tiankuo is challenging you, prepare yourself.”
Jing Su’s words were interrupted by the arriving referee, but he instead smiled,
“You see… they didn’t even choose to make a move on you on the last two days.”
Yu Lu’s face was gloomy, the fan in his hand crushed to pieces.
“You just watch closely how I win this match!”
Jing Su didn’t want to bother with Yu Lu. Although Liu Xixi was from Liujing Forest like them, due to some reasons, she was rarely seen.
His only purpose in inviting Liu Xixi to talk two days ago was to pursue advancement in the martial arts.
However, Liu Xixi refused him.
Although he secretly vowed that he would no longer pay attention to this foolish woman, this did not mean that he truly believed Liu Xixi was ignorant and foolish.
But Yu Lu’s purpose in inviting Liu Xixi was not so simple.
After all, their lineage did not have world destruction!
“Let this foolish woman jump around for a few more days. I am determined to win the championship in this competition!”
Jing Su muttered to himself, as if the championship was already within his grasp.
He indeed had the confidence, after all, the advantage of being able to fly in the arena was too great.
Apparently, Liu Xixi was unaware of the struggles here. She had been in seclusion for ten years and didn’t understand those intricate schemes.
Her uncle didn’t allow her to run around or interact with outsiders, but among her peers in Liujing Forest, except for Jing Su, everyone looked at her strangely, either with fear or desire…
And Jing Su wasn’t a good person either; he was very arrogant, and it was hard to talk to him. Liu Xixi would rather sleep alone than say another word to him.
“Wow, Jun JieJie is even more amazing than I imagined!”
As expected, Jun Liuhe once again swept through two matches, and her current ranking reached 11.
Liu Xixi asked with a fighting spirit,
“Are you challenging me tomorrow?”
“The day before last.”
Based on the strength Jun Liuhe displayed, those ranked above eleventh shouldn’t be foolish enough to challenge her, but it’s uncertain for those ranked in the top ten. So, for the sake of a few days of leisure, she gave up on making a move tomorrow.
“Eh, everyone’s probably going to crowd in on the last two days… So boring, I’m going to find Xia Jiuyuan!”
Xia Jiuyuan wasn’t here; he was watching Li Le’s match. He thought Jun Liuhe’s matches were boring, winning inexplicably.
The result was as he expected. Jun Liuhe had already won both her matches, while Li Le was still in his first.
There was no other way; Li Le couldn’t hit anyone. Those who could enter the finals couldn’t have major deficiencies in their abilities; everyone had very good movement techniques.
On the stage, his opponent gasped and cursed, “Hey, hey, aren’t you surrendering yet, buddy? Spare me—damn it,”
Bloodied Li Le once again swung his fist, aiming for his opponent’s face.
Don’t think Li Le only had strength and no speed; that was wrong.
Li Le’s speed was very fast, but the speed without spiritual energy techniques was ultimately limited.
The opponent’s head strangely twisted, dodging the punch. At the same time, Li Le’s other fist continued, striking from below at an angle, targeting the enemy’s chin.
But the opponent not only dodged the punch again but also, while dodging, swung the Dao Peak in his hand, striking Li Le’s arm.
The improvement in rank was all-encompassing: perception, sixth sense, danger premonition, spirit, soul…
And Li Le only had physical speed and strength!
The Dao Peak sliced across his left arm, leaving a deep wound, accompanied by the opponent’s spiritual energy intrusion.
Was he going to lose?
