Chapter 962: Definitely Would Not Lose
Immediately, a disciple spoke in a low voice, “Senior Uncle Zhu, draw your sword.”
“That’s right, Senior Uncle Zhu, quickly draw your sword.”
“Senior Uncle Ling, this isn’t good, right?”
“Senior Uncle Ling…”
Zhu Tianzhi was popular, but there seemed to be even more people supporting Ling Wushang. For a moment, there was a commotion outside Flowing Cloud Valley. The surroundings had long been illuminated by many torches and glowing ores.
Bi Xuanshan remained silent. No matter how the elders winked at him, he ignored them. So be it. He even touched his beard and muttered in a low voice, “Aiya, I’m really old. I can’t see clearly anymore. My old eyes are blurry. Aiya…” When the elders heard this, they almost vomited blood. Who was the one who said that he wasn’t old yet with a dignified expression earlier? Now, he was talking to himself and contradicting what he said before.
At this moment, Zhu Tianzhi was actually overjoyed in his heart. Since Bi Xuanshan hadn’t said anything, didn’t that mean that he tacitly agreed with Ling Wushang’s proposal? Receive his sword? Heh, he was really too arrogant. Who did Ling Wushang think he was? It was just a sword strike. From now on, Ling Wushang would not compete with him for the position of the next sect leader. How could he reject such a good thing?
“Junior Brother Ling, don’t act rashly—” Zhu Tianzhi wanted to put on the airs of a senior brother and say a few words with sincerity. This way, he could show off his magnanimity without exposing his true intentions. However, before he could finish his words, he was coldly interrupted by Ling Wushang.
“Stop talking nonsense and draw your sword. As I said, as long as you receive my sword, I will withdraw from the competition to be the next sect leader.” Ling Wushang’s voice was as cold as a ten-thousand-year-old glacier.
Zhu Tianzhi started to get a little angry. Heck, even a clay figurine would get angry if it were looked down upon by Ling Wushang time and time again. But in the end, he slowly pulled out his sword with a frown as his whole body emitted an oppressive aura.
“Realm of Heaven Essence Advance Stage!” someone exclaimed.
Zhu Tianzhi’s cultivation had actually reached the realm of Heaven Essence Advance Stage! Previously, wasn’t he only at the realm of Heaven Essence Primary Stage? In a short period of time, he had managed to break through the primary and intermediate stages into the advance stage! Zhu Tianzhi’s aptitude and cultivation really made people speechless. He was indeed worthy of being the sect leader’s disciple.
“Junior Brother Ling, draw your sword!” said Zhu Tianzhi coldly with a powerful aura. He was determined to win tonight, and it was also the time for the dust to settle. In the future, he would definitely be the one to take over the position of Flowing Clouds Sect leader!
Elder He and the others were a little stunned when they saw what unfolded before them. How did things turn out like this? Weren’t they only supposed to deal with the matter of an outsider trespassing into the forbidden valley? How did the situation turn into a bet between Ling Wushang and Zhu Tianzhi? Moreover, the betting odds were too absurd. Where did it put the current sect leader? Where was the sect leader? Why didn’t he stop such an absurd bet?
The elders collectively turned their heads to look at Bi Xuanshan, only to see Bi Xuanshan picking his nose and looking at the sky…
Oh no, this wasn’t their wise and divine sect leader. The elders turned their heads away in grief and no longer looked at Bi Xuanshan. Instead, they turned their heads to witness the duel between Ling Wushang and Zhu Tianzhi.
Ling Yichen and the rest had been around since the beginning. They had witnessed everything that happened so of course they also understood what was going on.
“Do you Big Brother Ling will encounter any issues?” asked Lan Xinyu in a low voice.
“The person who loses will not be Big Brother Ling.” Ling Yichen’s voice was very soft, but it hinted an absolute trust in Ling Wushang. Yes, Ling Wushang will not lose! He will definitely not lose!
