31: Zhen Miaoqing's intimidation
Tai Yujie was slow-witted. Hearing An Kecin's words, she couldn't help but look blank, not knowing what they meant.
But the people around them instantly began to gossip!
"So it's the Junior Brother from Little Bamboo Peak. Two Senior Sisters, congratulations, congratulations!"
Beside An Kecin, a man spoke up immediately, a flattering smile on his face.
This man's cultivation was at the second level of the Foundation Establishment Realm, comparable to Tai Yujie, but his mind was sharp, and he secretly kept track of the beauties from each peak.
Although An Kecin and Tai Yujie weren't peerless beauties, they were still quite good-looking, so naturally, some male Disciples had a good impression of them!
Many people around heard they were from Little Bamboo Peak, and those who knew An Kecin cupped their hands in greeting one after another.
An Kecin smiled slightly and responded softly, but her gaze turned toward Guo Gang!
Sure enough, when Guo Gang heard the surrounding talk, his expression instantly changed.
Recently, the Peak Master of Little Bamboo Peak, Meng Caihong, had achieved a Breakthrough to the Soul Splitting Realm, making a huge splash and faintly showing signs of overshadowing Nine Yang Peak.
If the record set by the Eldest Senior Sister here at Wind and Thunder Valley was really broken, Little Bamboo Peak would surely gain even more fame.
"No, I must stop this from happening!"
Guo Gang instantly made up his mind, then looked at Ji Wuchang on the third stone platform, a cold glint appearing in his eyes.
Guo Gang didn't have the guts to make an overt move.
But he quickly thought of a way. He walked slowly toward the cliff wall on the side where Ji Wuchang was and began to climb.
Originally, with his cultivation, the first or second platform would have been most suitable.
But this time, Guo Gang directly chose the fourth platform because it was currently empty.
It was common to fall off while enduring the lightning Body Tempering on the stone platforms if one couldn't hold on.
Guo Gang's plan was simple: pretend he couldn't hold on and fall from the fourth platform. As long as he adjusted his direction, he could definitely hit Ji Wuchang on the third platform.
This way, Ji Wuchang would also be forced to fall.
An Kecin watched Guo Gang sit cross-legged on the fourth platform directly above Ji Wuchang, and a smile appeared on her lips; everything was going according to her plan.
Tai Yujie finally realized what was happening and looked at An Kecin with an expression of admiration!
Zhen Miaoqing looked at Guo Gang and couldn't help but frown!
Huang Wanqiu smiled and said, "Eldest Senior Sister, it seems Little Bamboo Peak isn't as harmonious as one might imagine!"
A disdainful smile appeared on Zhen Miaoqing's lips, and she said calmly, "Just a clown!"
Huang Wanqiu nodded slightly, her gaze sweeping over An Kecin and Tai Yujie with a half-smile.
An Kecin suddenly felt something and looked up, meeting Huang Wanqiu's gaze. A trace of panic couldn't help but rise in her heart!
At this moment, Ji Wuchang was completely unaware of the outside world. He was multitasking; besides condensing the Thunder Bead, he automatically channeled part of the lightning to the bones throughout his body, using it to temper them.
Ji Wuchang could clearly feel that under the weak lightning, the bones in his entire body seemed to be slowly undergoing some special changes.
From time to time, traces of black smoke emerged; those were the black Impurities on the bones.
Ji Wuchang hadn't expected this method to actually be useful.
At this moment, in Ji Wuchang's Dantian, a fist-sized Thunder Bead emerged. Although it didn't look solid, it was indeed filled with the power of lightning.
The lightning entering Ji Wuchang's body split into two parts, one of which flowed continuously into the Thunder Bead.
With this Thunder Bead, he could begin to Cultivate the first punch of the Wind and Thunder Fist!
Ji Wuchang was exceptionally looking forward to the Wind and Thunder Fist.
Unfortunately, the Purple Qi Burning Heaven Art was a fire-attribute Cultivation Technique; otherwise, he wouldn't have needed to condense wind and thunder power first!
Just then, Ji Wuchang suddenly remembered that in his past life, Xiao Fan hadn't cultivated a lightning-attribute technique either; his technique was also related to the fire attribute.
But how he had solved the problem of needing to condense wind and thunder power for the Wind and Thunder Fist was something he'd have to think about carefully when he got back!
Suddenly, a cry of alarm rang out. Ji Wuchang felt a gust of wind crashing down from above, heading straight for him.
Just as Ji Wuchang was about to open his eyes, he suddenly felt a powerful surge of energy coming from above, which pushed the force crashing toward him far away.
Ji Wuchang knew someone had stepped in to help, so he didn't bother with it.
At this moment in Wind and Thunder Valley, everyone gasped. Seeing Guo Gang screaming as he fell into the Thunder Pool, looks of schadenfreude appeared on everyone's faces!
No one present was a fool. Guo Gang had just fallen from the fourth platform toward Ji Wuchang, and the Eldest Senior Sister had flicked her finger, sending him flying.
Everyone on the scene understood that this Guo Gang had malicious intentions!
"Until this Junior Brother wakes up, no one is allowed on the platforms above the third level, or don't blame me for being unkind!"
Zhen Miaoqing spoke coldly, her gaze sweeping across the field, and everyone lowered their heads.
"Yes, Eldest Senior Sister!"
Everyone spoke up, their expressions solemn. At the same time, they secretly praised her; the Eldest Senior Sister truly lived up to her name. Her mere aura alone crushed countless people!
An Kecin and Tai Yujie lowered their heads at the same time. An Kecin clenched her fists so hard that her nails dug into her palms, and blood flowed.
But An Kecin didn't feel the slightest pain; there was only a voice in her heart screaming frantically.
"How is it possible? Why would the Eldest Senior Sister help him? Could it be that he knows her? Damn Ji Wuchang, just you wait!"
An Kecin was roaring inwardly, and her face was no longer calm but rather unsightly!
Guo Gang's screams continued to ring out. For someone at the second level of the Foundation Establishment Realm, the Thunder Pool below was definitely not a good place.
Seeing Guo Gang's face as pale as paper, Zhen Miaoqing gave a cold snort and reached out with her left hand toward the Thunder Pool below.
A force acted on Guo Gang's body, lifting him directly out of the Thunder Pool and tossing him onto the shore.
Regardless, this man was a Disciple of the Second Elder; a lesson was enough!
Guo Gang's body twitched, lightning flickering over him; he looked extremely miserable.
After a while, Guo Gang finally recovered. He didn't dare say a word and slunk away from Wind and Thunder Valley.
Guo Gang's incident was just a small interlude; everyone then turned their gaze back to Ji Wuchang!
"Eldest Senior Sister, how much longer do you think he can last?"
Huang Wanqiu looked at Zhen Miaoqing and asked with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Zhen Miaoqing shook her head and then spoke solemnly, "Back then, I was on the fourth platform, where the power of lightning is stronger."
"If he can last for three hours, it would be equivalent to the two hours I lasted back then!"
Huang Wanqiu nodded slightly, agreeing with the Eldest Senior Sister's words.
