Chapter 585: Bad Habit of Eating Free Meals

“Miss Ling, it was my fault earlier on; Old Brother apologizes. With your cultivation, you indeed live up to the name of being the number one amongst the younger generation. My candidates from Shang Yuan Country would not have been your match, even if they did not forfeit,” Xie Wuji said magnanimously. Initially, he never had much conflict with Ling Chuxi and it was merely because of the Great Assessment matters that he had gotten angry with her as well. Personally experiencing her cultivation destroyed all his previous prejudices, and he was now more than willing to address her as a peer.

Ling Chuxi got goosebumps when she heard them referring to themselves as ‘Old Brother’. She really found it strange to be considered on the same level as a bunch of old men.

“I thank you, seniors, for your aid. If not for your help, I would not have been able to breakthrough and be promoted so quickly. If you don’t see me as an outsider, just call me Chuxi,” Ling Chuxi said honestly. If they all hadn’t taken action, she really did not know when she would have been able to breakthrough. Also, she had almost taken their lives with her powerful qi, so Ling Chuxi was sincerely grateful to the guardians.

“Chuxi, that surge of cold qi just now, was it... the legendary Nine Gloom Absolute Meridian?” Xie Wuji intentionally lowered his voice at the last few words. Out of all of them, he had experienced the extremely cold and gloomy qi from Ling Chuxi’s Qi Ocean the most. The more he thought about it, the more surprised he felt.

Lin Cangbo, Mister Cao, and the others were also shocked. Recalling it, they looked at Ling Chuxi questioningly.

“Could you all please keep that a secret? It must not be made known to any outsiders.” Mo Kongyuan’s words confirmed their guess.

“Don’t worry, we understand the severity of the matter. It will definitely not get out to anyone,” Lin Cangbo said solemnly, and the rest agreed.

The secret originally known by only two was now known by an additional four. However, Ling Chuxi was not worried; with their identities as guardians and Mo Kongyuan’s great trust in them, there shouldn’t be any problems.

“Old Monster Mo, we all put in quite a bit of effort for Chuxi’s promotion, so you have to treat us to a drink,” Lin Cangbo said to Mo Kongyuan with a teasing smile.

“It was clearly a test from all of you, so what does it have to do with me?” Mo Kongyuan grumbled.

“That’s not true, you yourself saw the situation we were in just now where we practically risked our lives! It can’t be that you won’t even spend a little money on wine, right?” Lin Cangbo cajoled, even though his heart still held a lingering fear. The situation just now had indeed been dangerous!

“Alright, alright, I’ll treat. However, I’m sure you all know that I always forget to bring money when I leave the house,” Mo Kongyuan said lightly, though there was a trace of smugness in his tone.

“Ah, even after so many years, you haven’t changed your bad habit of eating free meals. Forget it then, this meal is on me.” Lin Cangbo shook his head and sighed. How could he forget about that?

The courtyard had been wrecked so badly that there wasn’t even a place to sit. The group talked and laughed as they walked out of the courtyard.

“Brother Mo, Brother Xie, you are here too! What joyful news is there that you all are so happy discussing it?” An old man entered the courtyard at that moment with a hearty smile, but surprise flashed in his eyes briefly.

This person was the Great Worshipper of Wu Feng Hall, and the guardian of Ding Lin Country: Chu Fengyun.

Such a great disturbance had occured in Wu Feng Hall, so naturally he had received news about it as well. Feeling that surge of spiritual energy, he had originally wondered which worshipper disciple had been promoted to the realm of Great Fulfilment, but he did not hear the sounds of shocking thunder. Now that he was in the courtyard, he could not hide his shock. Even if it were Heavenly Lightning Striking the Body, it would not have been so powerful, right?

Could it be that there was someone who had been promoted to the realm of True Essence?!
