Chapter 573 -573: A Frog in a Well Dares to Speak of Heaven? (First Update)
“`
Although everything was ultimately clarified as a misunderstanding,
Lian Yunzhi still stared at Xue An, her face changing unpredictably.
This man was indeed as strong as Father had said, capable of withstanding one of her palms!
Even though she had only used a fraction of her cultivation because she feared involving Yunluo, it was still extremely horrifying.
After all, he was supposed to be a “mere mortal” without any cultivation!
Such a terrifying innate talent for physical prowess, if cultivable, would surely more than qualify him to be a True Disciple in the Mountain Sea Sect.
Given time, he might even become an inner chamber True Disciple and sit at the same level as herself.
What a pity…
He turned out to be from the Hua Clan who can’t cultivate!
Lian Yunzhi sighed inwardly, and her expression returned to one of indifference.
“You’re quite impressive!”
“Oh?” Xue An smiled faintly, noncommittal.
“As a member of the Hua Clan, your strength is indeed something to be proud of, but remember…”
Lian Yunzhi’s face was full of arrogance, “this is Feiyan Fort! It’s a place where cultivation and strength do the talking, so I hope you can behave yourself!”
After speaking, Lian Yunzhi, still somewhat reluctant to leave, pulled Lian Yunluo away.
A mocking smile appeared on the corner of Xue An’s mouth as he said lightly, “Such big talk for someone just at the Longevity Peak!”
Upon hearing this, Lian Yunzhi abruptly turned around, her face frosty, ready to speak.
Xue An waved his hand, “No need to look at me like that. To tell you the truth, I came here for the True Immortal Relics, and I have absolutely no interest in your Feiyan Fort!”
“True Immortal Relics?” A sneer of ridicule appeared on Lian Yunzhi’s face.
“Do you have any idea how many cultivators from the entire Northwest have come here for the True Immortal Relics? There’s no counting how many exceptional talents there are among them. Your physical prowess may be good, but without cultivation, you won’t even be able to enter the front gate! And yet you dare to talk about the True Immortal Relics? That’s really quite presumptuous!” Lian Yunzhi said with a cold laugh.
Hearing this, Xue An sighed slightly, “It sounds quite reasonable, but all I can say is… does the frog at the bottom of the well dare to speak of the sky?”
“You…”
Lian Yunzhi was initially taken aback, then realized that she had been likened to the frog at the bottom of the well by Xue An.
She was so enraged that she was about to burst.
But after a brief hesitation, Lian Yunzhi sneered.
“There’s no use flaunting your verbal prowess here; this world respects strength! Since you put it that way, I’ll look forward to seeing what gives you the right to call others a frog at the bottom of the well!”
Having said that, Lian Yunzhi pulled Lian Yunluo away with big strides.
Xue An watched her retreating figure, smiled slightly, and then whispered softly, “Aren’t you coming out yet?”
As his words faded, Lian Yunting emerged from the corner.
“So Senior knew I was here all along!”
Xue An remained noncommittal, “You seem to be avoiding your elder sister.”
Lian Yunting’s face showed a hint of bitterness, “Yes!”
Lian Yunting had always had her own concerns.
Her elder sister Lian Yunzhi was overbearing and strong-willed, and with her astonishing talent, she had always been highly valued by their father, Lian Yuanhua. Especially now that she had become an inner chamber True Disciple of the Mountain Sea Sect, she was seen by everyone as the future successor, treated with utmost respect.
Her younger sister Lian Yunluo, on the other hand, was sweet and adorable, and also greatly adored by Lian Yuanhua.
Only the middle sister, Lian Yunting, with her average talent—neither outstanding nor terrible—occupied an awkward position. Lian Yuanhua did not dislike her, but neither did he show much affection toward her.
So her position had always been rather awkward!
It was fine usually, but once her elder sister returned, whenever she saw her father, who was usually stern with her, doting on her, and the fortress’s elders greeting her with smiles,
Lian Yunting felt a sourness welling up in her heart and could only hide in a corner to nurse her wounds in solitude.
Today was no exception.
Therefore, Lian Yunting had hidden herself early on, planning to speak a few words to Xue An, when coincidentally she saw her elder sister coming to trouble Xue An in a fit of anger.
