Chapter 408 - No One Believes the Truth
Suddenly, a deep voice was heard from the mountain peak: “What is going on here?” The spiritual force that had been released was so oppressing that people found it hard to move.
Feng Tianlan quickly gathered up her energy and suppressed her real strength. She then quietly pulled Luo Yunzhu to the side.
“Martial uncle, she hit me!”
“Martial uncle.”
Upon hearing the voice from the summit, the wailing crowd instantly stopped and called out with great respect.
Luo Yunzhu was just about to refute them. However, she was stopped by Feng Tianlan. She shook her head lightly to signal to Yunzhu not to say anything.
Xu Qiming walked down from the peak of the mountain and stood beside Feng Tianlan. His eyes scanned the four of them. Finally, his gaze landed on Feng Tianlan, and he said, “Are these the disciples you just took in?”
“They are from the South Winds Nation and are looking for Spiritual Grass. These are the disciples that were taken in without qualifications.” The tall, strong man wanted to stand up, but he realized that his leg was broken. He suddenly let out a cry, “Martial Uncle, she broke my leg. You can’t take her as a disciple.”
Xu Qiming did not say anything. He just scanned Tu Xiupei from head to toe, staring at her straight posture, lofty charm, and good looks. Although there was a scar on her face, it wasn’t hard to see that she’d once been a great beauty.
More importantly, she still retained her cold, domineering cold eyes and a soft royal aura. All of these qualities were natural. She had either been born standing on the highest peak or was destined to become someone who would.
At the same time, Feng Tianlan was also sizing up this so-called ‘martial uncle.’ He was dressed in brown and looked very serious. A goatee was growing out of his chin. Although he didn’t give off upright energy, he looked fair in his judgment.
“I’ve heard that, among the Flying Frost Pavilion’s disciples, the lowest-ranked individuals have reached the level of Spiritual Master.” Feng Tianlan magnanimously stood with her hands by her sides. She looked at the people below and said, “I just don’t know how Advanced-stage Spiritual Trash like me was able to knock down thirty people. But, of course, if the Flying Frost Pavilion wants me to take responsibility, I don’t mind being promoted to Prime Supreme Genius.”
The crowd suddenly realized that their spiritual force could be considered to be at the Spiritual Master level. However, the person in front of them was just a piece of trash from the South Winds Nation. To knock them out by herself was impossible.
However, that was the truth!
How could she lie so brazenly?
Besides, she’d said it so magnanimously that she’d made them think that getting beaten up just now was just an illusion.
“Martial uncle, she is lying. Her power is definitely not at the level of a mere Advanced-stage Spiritual Master. She beat us up in a matter of seconds.” The tall, strong man was lying on the ground, pointing at his broken leg. “She broke my leg, and this giant pit was formed after she threw me.”
Although it was embarrassing to say such things, he couldn’t just let Feng Tianlan get away with her crimes so easily. He was not satisfied!
Looking in Xu Qiming’s doubtful eyes, Feng Tianlan was very calm as she said, “Yes, you guys took a beating from me. Yes, I broke your leg and smashed that giant pit into existence.”
Her spiritual force had long since surpassed that of an Advanced-staged Spiritual Master and reached the level of Spiritual Grandmaster. Ever since she’d obtained the spiritual crystals, her practice speed had become extremely fast. Currently, she had broken through to Middle-stage Spiritual Grandmaster. Therefore, fighting these dregs for her was like being an adult and fighting a child.
“Tianlan!” Luo Yunzhu shouted anxiously. Why would she admit to everything? Was she stupid?
Xu Qiming investigated Feng Tianlan’s spiritual force. It was indeed merely that of an Advanced-stage Spiritual Master. He then gazed at the few disciples who were severely injured, including the tall man.
He said, “Hao Jiang, your spiritual force has reached the level of First-stage Spiritual Grandmaster, while this lady is only an Advanced-stage Spiritual Master. How could she have beaten up dozens of you all by herself?”
