Chapter 336: Rogue Cultivator
Li Qinghong retreated alone into the mountains, leaving Ning Heyuan standing awkwardly by himself, unsure of what to do. He could not bring himself to challenge the other mountains after losing this spar.
He wandered aimlessly by the lake, where he spotted a figure walking on the surface.
The beautiful woman wore a blue dress and seemed to be in her early twenties, but was a cultivator at the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm. Her face was cool and composed as she frowned at Ning Heyuan and asked in a chilly tone, "Are you satisfied now?"
Ning Heyuan grimaced as he subconsciously took a step back, muttering reluctantly.
"Auntie..."
Ning Wan glanced at him, her aura fluctuating from recent exertion with others. She composed herself before saying, "I told you to wait at the lake while I checked on the Fei Family, but instead, you went and provoked the Li Family at their mountain gate!"
Ning Heyuan forced a smile and explained, "But Auntie… After hearing so much about the Sword Immortal, I just wanted to see what makes their swordsmanship so special! Besides, I told them I'm a rogue cultivator, so… no harm done, right?"
Ning Wan's eyes betrayed a hint of guilt at the mention of the Sword Immortal but was quickly angered by Ning Heyuan's stupid remark. Her beautiful eyebrows relaxed a little as she laughed, albeit in anger.
"Rogue cultivator?! Idiot! Have you ever seen any rogue cultivators outside equipped with dharma artifacts from head to toe? Not to mention one that is surnamed Ning with a generation name 'He' and even wielded the Heavenly Serpent Celestial Light spell? You've really spent too much time playing with those other idiots in the sect! Do you really think these outsiders are fools?!" she scolded fiercely.
