Chapter 44: People Comparing Themselves to Others Makes Them Die of Anger!
***
Throughout the mountain peak, various shaped stone blocks were scattered everywhere.
On top of the stone blocks were inserted all kinds of weapons, gleaming brilliantly under the sunlight.
“Everyone can try to select a weapon and pull it out. If you cannot pull it out, it means your compatibility with this weapon is not high, so just give up.”
Senior Sister Susu stood at the front of the group to remind them, her steps not slowing at all as she walked ahead.
“After pulling it out, if you decide on this weapon, drip blood to bind it. Remember, currently you can bind at most one weapon.”
Before Senior Sister Susu finished speaking, many disciples were already excitedly looking left and right at various weapons.
“This weapon feels pretty good.”
“I want that sword!”
“What kind of weapon is this? How is it a ball? And there’s a ring here too?”
…
Lin Muyu looked at these weapons.
There were swords, spears, hammers, whips, umbrellas, fans…
There was nothing she couldn’t think of that wasn’t here.
Seeing so many made Lin Muyu’s eyes dazzle, she said in surprise:
“So there can be this many types of weapons? But what kind of weapon is that fox tail stuck on the stone?”
Lin Muyu looked somewhat dazedly at a completely unremarkable stone block not far away that actually had a tuft of fox tail growing from it.
“Stop spacing out, let’s hurry deeper into the mountain.”
Before Lin Muyu could react, Luo Chenxi grabbed Lin Muyu’s hand and rushed toward the mountain interior.
Lin Muyu was immediately pulled and stumbled, hurriedly asking:
“Hey hey, why are we going into the mountain?”
“Have you ever seen good stuff left outside?”
Luo Chenxi turned back and gave Lin Muyu a beautiful eye roll, responding:
“Those weapons outside are obviously common grade at first glance. Even if we can’t get a spirit weapon, we need to at least get a high-grade one.”
“Oh, you seem to understand everything.”
Lin Muyu found the explanation very reasonable after hearing it, and hurriedly quickened her pace to keep up.
“It’s that you don’t understand anything!”
Luo Chenxi was somewhat speechless.
These things could be understood just by asking senior brothers and sisters.
But Lin Muyu, aside from attending classes, cultivating, and sleeping every day, just pulled on the little fox’s tail and basically had no excessive communication with people.
As for Su Wanqing, if Lin Muyu didn’t ask, she would absolutely never speak up.
Without realizing it, the two had already gone deep into the mountain, and the weapons around them began to become sparse.
Along the way, Lin Muyu discovered many disciples who had entered before them, and some were even already performing blood binding.
At this time, a slightly chubby male disciple caught the attention of the two.
He had discovered a high-grade long spear, but even using all his strength, he couldn’t pull it out.
“Damn spear, looking down on me?”
The chubby disciple kicked the spear and cursed.
Just as the chubby disciple turned to leave, the long spear flashed with a faint light and gently fell forward.
The chubby disciple immediately felt a refreshing sensation in his buttocks.
“Ouch, who’s ambushing me!”
Lin Muyu, who saw this complete scene from not far away, twitched at the corner of her mouth.
“That must hurt quite a bit.”
“This long spear seems to have almost reached the threshold of becoming a spirit weapon. What a pity.”
Luo Chenxi’s attention was focused on the long spear instead.
“It’s almost a spirit weapon? Should we go try it?”
Hearing Luo Chenxi’s words, Lin Muyu was somewhat eager to try. Spirit weapons weren’t that rare, right?
“It might take a thousand years, or maybe ten thousand years…”
Luo Chenxi’s words directly poured cold water on Lin Muyu, who said somewhat dejectedly:
“You should have said that earlier. Whether I can even live that long is another question…”
Hearing this sentence, Luo Chenxi’s mouth twitched, and she was about to say something.
The sound of an argument came from not far away.
“I found this first…”
“Since this young master has taken a liking to it, you should feel honored. Let go quickly!”
Lin Muyu and Luo Chenxi looked at each other.
“This voice sounds so familiar.”
“Come on, let’s go take a look.”
They saw a disciple holding a fan-shaped weapon, cowering pitifully on the ground.
While an elegant-looking Young Master was making a fierce face, punching and kicking that disciple.
“This young master is at the middle stage of Qi Refining. What’s wrong with taking your fan?”
“This isn’t taking, this is clearly robbing! You obviously couldn’t handle this fan yourself and were crouching on the side waiting. When I managed to pick it up, you came to rob me!”
That disciple stood up and shouted.
After shouting, he was about to run but was kicked down by the Young Master and stepped on.
Seeing this scene, Lin Muyu immediately widened her eyes.
“So you can actually rob them?”
“The sect indeed has no written rules forbidding robbery, but generally robbed weapons aren’t very compatible, so few people do this.”
Luo Chenxi looked at the scene before her, explaining with a playful expression.
“Cut the crap. Are you giving it or not?”
The Young Master, having his sore spot poked, picked up a stone from the side to threaten.
Seeing the Young Master about to get serious, the disciple holding the weapon hurriedly cried out:
“Help! Murder!”
“You dare to shout?”
Hearing this voice, the Young Master became furious and embarrassed, wanting to smash down.
“Clap, clap…”
The sound of clapping from not far away interrupted his action.
Then, a familiar voice came:
“Well done, truly worthy of being Minister Jiang’s son. Refined and elegant on the surface, but vicious and merciless behind the scenes.”
Hearing this sarcastic words, the Young Master looked up and saw someone he had met before: Luo Chenxi.
A trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes, but before long, the hesitation in his eyes disappeared.
“Oh, isn’t this the little princess? Still love meddling in other people’s business. In the capital I might have to fear you, but this is Qinglan Sect, where strength does the talking.”
“Oh? Not afraid of me?”
Luo Chenxi condensed a cluster of azure flames in her hand, radiating scorching heat.
Lin Muyu, who was standing relatively close, hurriedly stepped back several paces, a trace of surprise flashing in her eyes.
‘Is this the female lead? Not only does her cultivation improve quickly, but she’s also learned spells?’
To catch up on progress, Lin Muyu had prioritized improving her cultivation, planning to start learning spells only in the late stage of Qi Refining.
But Luo Chenxi not only had the same cultivation as her at the middle stage of Qi Refining, but had also learned spells before her.
Looking at these extremely threatening flames, the Young Master’s face turned green, and fear arose in his heart.
“You… a gentleman doesn’t fight with women!”
He spat on the disciple beneath him and got up, leaving without looking back, without any lingering attachment.
“Thank you both young ladies for saving me. I’m deeply grateful.”
That disciple stood up and hurriedly thanked the two.
Lin Muyu scratched her head somewhat embarrassedly:
“Don’t thank me, I didn’t do anything. Just thank Luo Chenxi.”
But Luo Chenxi’s attention was on that fan-shaped weapon, saying in a flat tone:
“This is a good weapon. Cultivate it well.”
“Thank you, Miss Luo! If you ever need anything from this humble student, both young ladies just say the word, and I’ll do everything in my power!”
“Mm.”
Luo Chenxi responded and pulled Lin Muyu away.
She was used to doing favors for others, as for whether she could use them.
Except for the person beside her who could make her bloodline throb, she didn’t really care much about others.
After the two left, this disciple looked at their departing figures, a trace of admiration flashing in his eyes.
“These two young ladies, getting just one in this life would be enough. But how can I be worthy of them?”
Walking on the road, Lin Muyu asked curiously:
“When did you learn this spell?”
Hearing this, Luo Chenxi turned to stare at Lin Muyu, a trace of strange color flashing in her eyes.
“When I wanted to tease you that time, I accidentally comprehended it?”
“Seriously, sister?”
People comparing themselves to others makes them die of anger!
