Chapter 556: What is Called the Right Path?
“Big Brother Feng, why don’t you try waiting for an hour to see if it will get better?” suggested Si Nanchen carefully. He really wanted to know the answer.
“Go back and prepare an ice bath,” instructed Feng Zitian through gritted teeth. He understood that Si Nanchen really wanted to know the answer, but he however, did not want to be the white mice. It was still better to play safe.
“Big Brother Feng, Fifth Highness, I shall return first,” said E Shulan to them both.
“Go back first and wait for our news,” said Feng Zitian with a wave of his hand. He felt an extraordinarily itchy and piercingly painful feeling all over his entire body and his heart was irritable right now, so he found everyone he saw an eyesore.
E Shulan smiled and nodded. The moment she turned around, her face turned cold. ‘Hmph, I am a Deity’s Servant Girl. How dare you actually beckon at me at your will and expect me to obey and wave at me to just dismiss me like that? If it weren’t for the sake of Deity Temple’s Great Plan, do you think I will still show you such a kind expression?’
A match between two strong cultivators thus ended with such an abrupt method. In the garden, Mo Kongyuan and the rest were a little dumbfounded at the many conflicting emotions they felt from what had just happened.
“Chuxi, would he really be all right without bathing in ice water?” Not only did Si Nanchen want to know the answer, Ling Yichen and Fu Chengyu were both equally curious.
“I also don’t know. I just simply said that. Let them be tangled up by it, it would be the best if they were tangled to death by it,” said Ling Chuxi with a naughty smile.
“Just now, the poison skills you used were from the Golden Pill Sect’s Qiu family’s stream of skills, right? It seems like both the Su and Qiu family’s medical skills are already in your hands,” said Mo Kongyuan emotionally.
“I have let you watch a joke is all. Those were all merely little methods that cannot be used on a proper battle stage,” said Ling Chuxi, feeling a little embarrassed. “After this battle, only now did I know that I have relied too much on martial arts techniques in the past. In the end, it is not the right path to take along the route of martial arts.”
“That is not necessarily so,” countered Mo Kongyuan as he shook his head.
Before seeing Ling Chuxi use the Great Fists Skill, he was also worried that Ling Chuxi had learned too many different techniques which were overly complicated and which could misguide her onto a crooked path, but now, he had different thoughts. With his cultivation level as the guardian of a country and with his vast experience, he also had a different understanding toward the martial arts route from the masses.
“The paths belonging to a martial arts route does not mean merely holding on tightly to the set rules. What is the right path and what is the crooked path, who is able to say which is which clearly? Going your own path is the right path,” said Mo Kongyuan. Since Ling Chuxi had such remarkable innate talent and comprehension abilities, then why was there a need for her to stick to the rules and focus on cultivating only one type of skill to its best? Furthermore, if one were to think about it in detail, Ling Chuxi’s potential and character was totally suited to master such a complicated form of martial arts learning. What exactly was he blindly worried about for?
“I understand. Many thanks for pointing it out,” said Ling Chuxi to Mo Kongyuan as she raised her head after pondering on his words for a moment.
Ling Chuxi felt her heart suddenly see the light. Everyone’s nature was different, and each person had different strengths. Only by going along her own martial arts path would she be able to reach the peak of strong cultivators.
“You have also noticed his martial arts techniques just now, right?” asked Mo Kongyuan.
“His martial arts techniques seemed targeted at dismantling the prowess of your Great Fists Skill,” said Ling Chuxi with a nod. Just now she had thought that with the Great Fists Skill added on to her domineering, mighty Thundercloud Battle Qi, she could turn her loss into a win. However, she never expected that such a move was exactly what the other party wanted. If it were not for the final act of shamelessly using her poison skills, it was fearful that if the battle had continued on, she would not even have had the strength to parry the attacks anymore.
Perhaps the others watching were unable to tell the origins of her few counterattack moves using the Great Fists Skill, but how could such a thing possibly be hidden from Mo Kongyuan’s eyes? Rather than hiding and tucking away one’s knowledge, why not just be a little more generous?
A dignified guardian would not possibly be angry over such a small thing, right? Anyway, Ling Chuxi herself did not have the self-awareness of having to hide the fact that she had secretly learnt a skill and did not feel the least bit guilty about it.
“You are right. His martial arts techniques were indeed specially devised to resolve my 27 Hand Great Fists Skill,” agreed Mo Kongyuan as he fell into deep thoughts.
