Chapter 753: Help the Injured
The ancestor and everyone else looked at her strangely.
The destruction of the two great families in the Outer Domain caused a huge stir for everyone on this planet. They had heard of Huang Bai Xing’s power, but today, when Huang Sicong mentioned how Shenlian Yingyue had saved everyone from being killed by the self-destruction of several Nascent Soul cultivators (the ancestors of the Liu and Chen families), everyone was struck speechless. (Ch. 591)
"But I wonder, how were you able to stop those Nascent Soul cultivators?" The ancestor, being her elder, felt it was inconvenient to directly apologize or bow his head to her in front of others. Instead, he decided to ask her a question.
"I once walked in ignorance, but through my trials, I’ve come to value myself and appreciate the blessings I possess, no longer yearning for what was never meant for me." Shenlian Yingyue chose not to put him in the awkward position of having to apologize. Rather, she aimed to deflect any suspicion concerning her abrupt change in behavior.
The ancestor nodded in appreciation. He admired her eloquence, while some people who understood her meaning looked at her in a new light.
"About those cultivators, it was just my luck that I was able to stop them." Yet, her next words changed their impression of her.
Everyone: "..."
Who was she fooling? How could a mere junior stop the self-destructive power of the ancestors of the two great families? What nonsense—what incredible luck she claimed to have!
"Are you all so idle that you inquire about other people’s business instead of tending to your own wounds?" Huang Bai Xing’s cold tone silenced everyone, drawing their attention away from Shenlian Yingyue and redirecting it to her. She glanced at everyone with a warning in her eyes.
