Chapter 255 Give You a Chance
At the Demon Sect's martial arts performance venue, all the outer disciples were cheering and congratulating Ji Li, but her eyes never left Lu Xun.
Just like the lyrics:
[But I only looked into his eyes, and I didn’t care what the millions of people were cheering for.]
Even in the final speech session, Ji Li put all the credit on Lu Xun, saying that it was all thanks to his guidance.
Lu Xun was listening on the stage, feeling a little surprised, even a little confused, but he quickly forced a smile of relief on his face.
In fact, Lu Xun did contribute to Ji Li's first place, and his contribution was not small.
It was he who taught Ji Li the [Powder and Ink] and even specially made her a piece of close-fitting soft armor.
When they were at the foot of the mountain, he whipped her day and trained her nightly until Ji Li became a qualified...female swordsman.
However, this is only a partial factor. In fact, it mainly depends on Ji Li's own efforts.
Now, although this was Ji Li’s highlight moment, everyone’s attention was focused on Lu Xun.
It is conceivable that this scene will also be posted on the forum by players.
By then, relying on the players' imagination skills, they will definitely be able to come up with some messy things.
This also reflects the value of the Purple Palace. Many professional players will think in their hearts:
"If I can have more contact with Zidian, will my strength also improve by leaps and bounds?"
For them, gaming is a career. The stronger they are, the more money they make!
On the high platform, Zhao Sui Han looked at Ji Li, then at Lu Xun. This mother-fan's face was filled with an auntie's smile.
Xiao Ran looked at her master's smile and listened to her master sighing, "It's great to be young."
She guessed that her master was probably recalling past events related to Yan Li.
She had heard these past events countless times. The contents were half true and half false. When Zhao Suihan told them, there was probably some artistic processing.
Well, probably there is a lot of artistic processing involved!
Xiao Ran glanced at Lu Xun in the distance, looking at his unique appearance and temperament, and said in her heart:
"A man like Uncle Lu should be particularly popular with women, right?"
When she thought of this, she touched her eyebrows and felt that they were a little hot.
…
…
The Demon Sect's outer sect competition came to an end. Except for Zhao Sui Han and Xiao Ran, the other guests said goodbye one after another.
She will stay in the Demon Sect for a few more days, and will go to the back mountain to ask the master to allow her to meet Yan Li.
At this moment, Lu Xun also went to see off the leader of Tianque Sect, Mo Beihe, and his daughter, Mo Qingqing, who looked like a legal loli.
When Lu Xun was seeing her off, Mo Qingqing didn't dare to say a word, and even didn't dare to look directly at Lu Xun, she was just stealing glances at him the whole time.
In fact, it wasn't just her. Many guests brought their juniors to watch the competition, and everyone was shocked by Lu Xun's strength.
Perhaps I will never forget the scene of more than ten swords suspended in the air at one glance, and of course... that unparalleled face.
"Master Mo, among the new disciples of Tianque Sect, do extraordinary people account for a large proportion?" Lu Xun said as he walked.
“I wasn’t very clear at first, but later I looked around and found that there are indeed quite a few extraordinary people, many of whom were only known after I entered the sect.” Mo Beihe replied.
After listening to Lu Xun's previous words, he welcomed the players. In addition, after the previous battle, Tianque Sect became famous in the Three Thousand Mountains area and became the first choice of the Three Thousand Mountains players.
After players join the sect, they will definitely try their best to gain experience and upgrade. In Mo Beihe's eyes, these people's cultivation speed is extremely fast and they are all good seedlings.
This is equivalent to recruiting a large number of little geniuses!
Now, Mo Beihe, who looks like Wu Dalang, laughs every night and can’t close his legs!
With this thought in mind, Mo Beihe turned around and bowed to Lu Xun, saying, "All this is thanks to your advice that day."
Lu Xun waved his hand and said, "Master Mo is too polite. You and I don't have to be so polite."
After Lu Xun thought about it, he finally said seriously: "Master Mo, I have said something before, and I will say it again today."
"You must remember that you can use extraordinary people, but when entrusting them with important tasks, you must think twice and be cautious!"
Seeing Lu Xun's serious expression, Mo Beihe immediately said, "Mo will remember this."
Lu Xun nodded and said no more.
In his memory, some small sects had good luck in the beginning and developed rapidly with the help of players, but eventually they got into trouble because of some of the bad habits of the stupid players.
The players make you successful, and the players also make you fail.
He doesn't want Tianque Gate to be destroyed by stupid players.
Before leaving, Mo Qingqing still didn't dare to muster up the courage to talk to Lu Xun. This shy behavior was very different from that day at Tianque Gate.
In fact, in that battle, Mo Qingqing was also very brave, leading the players and disciples of Tianque Gate to bravely kill birds, which is a far cry from his current shy appearance.
Seeing this, Lu Xun just found it a little funny.
This reminded him of some of the so-called campus idols when he was in school. Most girls didn't dare to approach them casually.
Perhaps this is the terrifying thing about Charm 10. Many people will feel inferior to him and dare not contact him, regarding him as the bright moon in their hearts that cannot be touched.
After seeing off Mo Beihe and his daughter, Lu Xun glanced down at the platform and found that Ji Li was still standing there. She had not returned to the outer gate and was obviously waiting for him.
So, Lu Xun smiled and said to Mao Nanbei and Lin Chan: "Fourth Senior Sister, Xiao Chan'er, you guys go back to the back mountain first, I'll be back later."
“Oh.” Mao Nanbei responded. She was about to take Lin Chan back to the back mountain when she seemed to remember something and turned around and said, “Junior brother, don’t forget that you owe me a month’s worth of desserts!”
"Remember this, I'll make it for you when I come back." Lu Xun pulled her cat ears and said.
A cat that is over a hundred years old, but still thinks about sweets all the time.
Having said that, ordinary cats cannot taste sweetness due to genetic defects.
But the little loli is a girl with cat ears, so naturally she is different.
After everyone left, Lu Xun flew to the ring and jokingly said to Ji Li, "Why? Do you want me to take you back to the outer gate?"
"Okay!" Unexpectedly, Ji Li agreed immediately.
Lu Xun took out the paper crane and said, "Come up."
Along the way, Lu Xun flew very slowly because he felt that Ji Li was still waiting for him and must have something to say.
She turned her head and said, "Lu Xun, the competition is over. I will return this soft armor to you later."
Lu Xun patted her head gently and said, "This is a gift for you, not a loan. You are so young, and you are still playing with the original underwear thing ?"
"Ah? What does original underwear mean?" Ji Li didn't quite understand.
Lu Xun did not explain further, but said: "You waited for me for so long just to say this?"
Ji Li shook her head, moved closer to him, and said, "No! I finally won first place this time, I just want to hear you praise me in person!"
As she spoke, she raised her head and chest and said, "Hurry up! You have to praise me with a hundred words!"
Different from her previous modesty and politeness, at this moment, there was finally a hint of pride on her face.
She's still a girl after all.
Lu Xun reached out and tapped her forehead, and just as she wished, he praised her and pointed out some of her shortcomings in the competition.
Ji Li listened to Lu Xun's words. She did not feel uncomfortable when he pointed out her shortcomings. On the contrary, she felt a little sweet in her heart, thinking:
"It turns out that he watched every one of my competitions very seriously."
After arriving at the mountain outside the gate, Lu Xun said to Ji Li: "If you have nothing to do, come with me to visit someone."
"Okay!" Even if Ji Li had something to do, it would immediately become nothing at this moment.
"Who are you going to visit?" Ji Li asked curiously.
"It's the Wu Hou from Jianchi. I don't know if he has woken up." Lu Xun said with a wry smile.
He is still puzzled. He clearly held back, so why did this guy vomit blood, faint, and be seriously injured?
It's very unreasonable.
Challengers who were seriously injured during the competition would rest for a while in the outer sect of the Demon Sect. The outer sect competition lasted for a total of five days. Wu Hou fainted on the first day and had not woken up for the past few days.
When Lu Xun and Ji Li arrived at Wu Hou's recuperation place, they found that he had woken up and was practicing sword in the yard.
He practiced one of the simplest moves - stabbing!
As long as he was in good health, this sword fanatic could not sit still.
When Wu Hou saw Lu Xun coming to visit, he immediately sheathed his sword, came forward, and saluted, saying, "Greetings, Senior Lu!"
As mentioned before, when Wu Hou challenged Lu Xun, he followed the ancient rituals. Since Lu Xun accepted his challenge, he was considered his sword master.
It was natural for him to bow to Lu Xun, and Lu Xun accepted it calmly, otherwise it would seem that he looked down on him.
"How is your injury recovering? Why are you in such a hurry to practice sword?" Lu Xun asked.
Wu Hou immediately said, "You have recovered very well. Wu Hou started practicing sword only after he felt that his body was fine. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of the good intentions of the senior?"
Lu Xun: “???”
Why does this sound weird?
Although Lu Xun did give him some pointers, he always felt that there was other meaning in Wu Hou's words.
The Demon Sect players and outer disciples passing by saluted upon seeing Lu Xun. Some of the more gossipy ones did not leave immediately, but instead stood in the distance and watched.
Although there were so many people watching, Wu Hou still placed his bronze sword without a tip on the stone table, then bowed and saluted.
It is an ancient ritual.
He bowed his head, clasped his fists, and said loudly and sincerely:
“After Wu Hou woke up, I thought he was seriously injured, but I didn’t expect that the remaining sword power of Senior Lu opened up a blocked meridian!”
Lu Xun was stunned and didn't understand anything.
I...did I do this?
Ji Li beside him opened her mouth slightly with a look of surprise, and then the surprise turned into admiration.
Even the players and outer disciples standing far away were startled.
"It turns out that this Wu Hou was not seriously injured by Junior Uncle Master (Zi Dian), but helped him open up a cultivation meridian!"
How on earth is this done!?
Wu Hou kept bending over and did not stand up. He continued to salute, and his clasped hands were trembling slightly.
He is an ordinary person, and he knows that he is just an average person.
He has paid so much to achieve what he has today.
Although it was only one more meridian that was opened, he was still extremely grateful.
There was too little charcoal in his stove, and one more piece of charcoal would be a great blessing.
Therefore, although his voice was loud and clear, it also trembled slightly. He said loudly and sincerely:
"Thank you, senior, for giving me this great fortune!"
