Chapter 363 - 363 363 Eating Melons

Chapter 363: Chapter 363 Eating Melons Chapter 363: Chapter 363 Eating Melons The woman in palace dress quickly hugged her in distress.

Ruan Qingsu was usually such a proud disciple, wasn’t she?

Even if she lost a piece of flesh, she wouldn’t furrow her brows.

But now, she was crying like this.

It was clear how wronged she felt!

The woman in palace dress carefully examined her body and noticed the bloodstains at the corner of her mouth.

Her shoulder blade was pierced through.

Even more terrifying was her abdomen, which was pierced with a blood hole by a sharp sword.

Frightened, the woman’s face changed drastically, and she quickly took out a treasured top-grade healing pill and fed it to her.

At this.

Ruan Qingsu’s pale face finally regained a bit of color.

“Who did this? To dare treat you so ruthlessly!”

The woman in palace dress coldly demanded.

Ruan Qingsu found it difficult to speak.

Because she wasn’t hurt by her physical injuries.

But by the blow to her self-esteem.

So she bit her red lips lightly, too ashamed to mention it, and said, “Forget it, Master.”

“I was at fault first in this matter.”

“Just take it as a lesson learned.”

If she hadn’t teased the other person, causing a misunderstanding, how could things have come to this?

“Speak!”

The woman in palace dress raised her voice and sternly ordered, “Don’t cover it up!”

“He injured my disciple like this and completely disregarded me, Lin Yuheng!”

“This is no longer just your issue!”

In her mind, Ruan Qingsu was attacked in the Green Cloud Sect.

Who else could it be?

It could only be someone from the Green Cloud Sect!

And to injure Ruan Qingsu to this extent, it could directly exclude the disciples of the Green Cloud Sect.

The attacker must either be an elder from a certain peak or one of those retired deacons from old disciples’ positions.

Ruan Qingsu’s body trembled, sensing her master’s anger.

She knew she couldn’t hide it anymore, her cheeks burning as she said, “It was… it was a young boy.”

Hmm?

Lin Yuheng’s expression froze, puzzled, “Are you sure you didn’t see it wrong?”

How could there be such a powerful young boy who could beat her carefully trained disciple like this?

The Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion did have a few such freakish individuals.

But this was the Green Cloud Sect.

The bottom-ranked Green Cloud Sect among the Nine Sects!

Ruan Qingsu bitterly said, “Disciple didn’t see it wrong, it was indeed a young boy.”

“Disciple doesn’t mind being injured like this, but I feel wronged for betraying Master’s years of teaching, being terribly humiliated by an unknown youth.”

Lin Yuheng was even more shocked, saying, “Explain everything from the beginning to the end!”

Thus, Ruan Qingsu had no choice but to brace herself and detail how she disgraced herself the entire time.

“Impossible!”

After hearing her, Lin Yuheng categorically denied it.

She even suspected if Ruan Qingsu was dreaming.

“He is only eighteen?”

“Yet is proficient in Earth-level Palm Technique, Earth-level Finger Technique, Earth-level Leg Technique, and Earth-level Sound Path Technique?”

“He wore Green Cloud Sect’s clothing but also practiced the True Thunder Sect’s techniques and Heavenly Sound Sect’s techniques?”

“He is only in the Foundation Establishment Realm but can break through the protective jade pendant I gave you?”

“And you said he can control his sword to attack from a distance?”

“Do you believe what you are saying?”

A person’s energy is limited.

To cultivate one Earth-level technique to a significant degree is already remarkable.

Simultaneously cultivating four Earth-level techniques sounded incredibly fantastical.

And the rest were even more so.

Cultivating True Thunder Sect’s techniques? And also Heavenly Sound Sect’s techniques?

How could that be possible?

Even more absurd, a Foundation Establishment Realm breaking through the defense of a Fifth-Level Core Formation, was this even remotely possible?

Okay, even putting that aside.

Controlling a sword to attack from a distance.

Isn’t this Xu Qingyang’s Sword Control Technique?

Throughout the Nine-Sect Land, besides Xu Qingyang, no one else knew it.

How could a young boy suddenly appear, proficient in Sword Control Technique?

“Master, I didn’t lie, everything I said was true.”

Ruan Qingsu’s mouth was full of bitterness, “Although it sounds unbelievable.”

“But it’s all genuinely experienced by the disciple.”

“Otherwise, where did these injuries come from?”

Lin Yuheng shook her head.

She naturally believed that Ruan Qingsu was injured by someone.

But the process she described was so outrageous it was beyond the nine-layered heaven.

It was hard to convince herself to believe such words.

“No matter how this person injured you, I will seek justice for you!”

“Come! I will demand an explanation from Liu Wuchen!”

Meanwhile, Jiang Fan, who was quietly cultivating.

After returning to his cave, he replayed the battle with the female thief and was quite dissatisfied with his performance.

Despite using most of his techniques, he couldn’t detain a Second-Level Core Formation martial artist.

“My technique cultivation is still inadequate.”

After much thought, Jiang Fan took down the long zither and placed it across his knees.

A cultivation technique, “Tiger and Dragon Roar Technique,” appeared in his mind.

He had already successfully comprehended the first layer, “Tiger Roar,” in the Spirit Beast Sect’s main hall.

The power of which, currently, no one could withstand.

However, from today’s battle, it showed that against an opponent with exceptional movement techniques, the killing power was very limited.

He decided to try comprehending a higher layer.

Hoping it could address the shortcomings.

Closing his eyes, he carefully comprehended the second layer.

As dawn arrived.

He slowly opened his eyes, a trace of joy flowing in them.

“The predecessor who created the ‘Tiger and Dragon Roar Technique’ seemed to have noticed the flaw that ‘Tiger Roar’ wasn’t quick enough in its killing speed.”

“The second layer, ‘Dragon Roar’, not only enhances the power but also adds the penetrating effect of sound waves.”

With this thought in mind.

He eagerly started circulating his spiritual power.

His hands gently strummed the zither.

A series of sharp and rapid notes suddenly burst out.

Like waves on a sunlit sea, suddenly a fierce dragon leapt out, issuing a thunderous roar at close range.

The sound was deep and high-pitched, shattering eardrums and causing the entire body’s blood and spiritual power to become chaotic.

At the same time.

The terrifying notes instantly swept in all directions.

Bang bang bang—

A series of explosive sounds of stones shattering echoed throughout the chamber.

Looking around.

The thick-walled chamber was perforated by the sound waves.

Beams of light penetrated through, making the smoke-filled chamber fluctuate between light and dark.

Jiang Fan clicked his tongue in astonishment.

Just one attempt turned the chamber into a sieve!

If he met that female thief again, she would no longer be left with just skin-deep injuries.

Even more importantly.

This sound wave could disrupt a person’s blood and spiritual power, in other words, it could cause brief paralysis.

Perfectly countering fast-moving enemies!

Trying to escape the range of the sound waves with movement techniques would become extremely difficult.

“Heh, I would hope to encounter that female thief again, using her to practice my skills.”

Jiang Fan muttered.

Thump thump thump—

Knocks came from outside the stone door.

It was Tao Zhengjun.

“Junior Brother Jiang, Master is summoning you.”

Jiang Fan opened the door and looked at the senior brother with whom he had had some minor disputes, asking:

“Did Master give any instructions?”

Tao Zhengjun expressed goodwill, saying, “It’s the Special Commissioner from the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion with a matter, the Sect Master urgently summoned all members of the Green Cloud Sect.”

“It’s not specifically about you, Junior Brother, don’t worry.”

Yesterday, he suffered a humiliating defeat at Cao Zhen’s hands.

Jiang Fan easily crushed Cao Zhen, avenging him, so he took the initiative to make peace, hoping to resolve the past unpleasantness.

Jiang Fan naturally welcomed this.

Saying, “Thank you, Senior Brother Tao, for the reminder.”

“But, what major issue does this Special Commissioner have that requires the entire Green Cloud Sect to gather?”

Tao Zhengjun shook his head, “Not sure.”

“But I heard that last night, all the elders and deacons of the Green Cloud Sect were tormented and didn’t get any sleep.”

“It seems someone offended this commissioner, inciting her wrath.”

Jiang Fan was puzzled.

Who was foolish enough to offend the commissioner this badly?
