Cultivating Loser’s Counterattack - C116 On Account
Indeed, in less than three days, Gu Qing had only thoroughly researched the method of luck with the “Luoshen’s Whip”, and Qingyang appeared once again.
This time, he also gifted a few Spiritual Pill s as well, but he had already shown all of this to the blind, Gu Qing’s heart did not have any ripples at all. His acting skills were not weak, and Gu Qing’s acting skills were also not bad.
After approximately half a month, Gu Qing could already turn his spirit energy into a whip. Even if she did not attack the object, Gu Qing could still feel the fierce strength on the long whip that was made of spirit energy. It was definitely not something that could be compared with the Misty Rain Sword that was exchanged with ordinary Contribution Point.
Gu Qing was happy while dealing with Qingyang, but Qingyang had already changed from reserved to very exposed. She thought that Gu Qing’s heart was already with her.
In the blink of an eye, a month passed. It was now the day of the final selection.
“Zi Jin, why did you come with him?” Wang Lin was a little surprised. Ever since their last mission, the three of them had not interacted much.
Qingyang took a step forward and stood between Gu Qing and the two of them, “Junior Sister Zi Jin, come with me, do you have any objections?”
Wang Lin frowned, his gaze turning from Qingyang to Gu Qing, as he asked obviously.
Gu Qing smiled and said to Wang Lin: “Senior Brother Qingyang has helped me quite a lot these past few days, I am very grateful to him.” Her tone of voice was controlled very well as she swept her gaze in the direction of Qingyang City. She seemed to be hesitating from speaking.
Coincidentally, this scene had fallen into Shen Chang’s eyes, causing him to be extremely astonished at the other party’s attitude and tone. In his eyes, Gu Qing was cold and proud, even when facing him, she did not seem like a little girl, so why did she reveal such an attitude to an ordinary disciple that was not too outstanding?
He had not yet realized that the other person’s appearance was somewhat similar to someone from the past.
“Zi Jin, take a good look at yourself. Don’t let anyone …” Before Wang Lin could finish his words, he was interrupted by Qingyang. He turned his head and said gently to Gu Qing: “Zi Jin, let’s quickly go in. The competition is about to begin.”
Gu Qing pretended to be obedient and nodded her head, then said to Wang Lin: “Senior Brother Wang Lin, we will be going in first.
When Qingyang heard Gu Qing’s words, a victorious smile unconsciously rose up on her face as she glanced at Wang Lin. Wang Lin secretly clenched his fists, he knew that Qingyang was harboring evil intentions, but he could do nothing as Gu Qing did not listen to him.
Gu Qing saw the expressions and reactions of the two of them, but she could only apologize to Wang Lin because she wasn’t completely sure of Qingyang’s intentions.
The two of them walked inside, and as Qingyang walked, he turned his head and said to Gu Qing: “Junior Sister Zi Jin, I have something to say to you.”
It’s here!
Gu Qing’s eyes flashed, she lowered her head and smiled without batting an eyelid, “If Senior Brother has something to say, say it, Junior Sister will listen.”
When Qingyang saw her submissive appearance, he felt inexplicably satisfied. A few months ago, she was still wearing a cold expression. He didn’t expect that he would be able to take her down in just a few months.
His gaze lingered on Gu Qing’s face, and then, he slightly swept over her figure. What a pity! If her appearance and figure were a bit better, perhaps he really would have had the slightest bit of feelings for her. After all, every man liked her appearance of being gentle and petty.
Coughing lightly and withdrawing her train of thought, Qingyang slowly opened her mouth, “Zi Jin, do you like me?”
Gu Qing suppressed the mocking smile in her heart and replied: “Senior Brother, how do you want me to respond to these words?”
Qingyang automatically treated Gu Qing’s reaction as one of shyness and waved her hand with a smile: “It doesn’t matter if junior sister can’t answer now, sooner or later I’ll have you say it yourself!”
Gu Qing did not speak, she only lowered her head and smiled.
A sharp light flashed across Qingyang’s eyes, “Zi Jin, have you succeeded in entering the Later Period of Foundation Stage this month?”
He had finally reached the main topic!
Gu Qing slowly raised her head, “Could it be that Senior Brother is unable to tell? Zi Jin’s talent is dull, and has not yet advanced to the Later Period of Foundation Stage. ”
During this month, she had not attacked Later Period of Foundation Stage at all, and had instead been training her cultivation technique. But she would never tell Qingyang the truth.
Qingyang hesitated for a moment as if he was in a difficult situation. He hesitated, but didn’t say anything.
Gu Qing looked at his boastful acting and chuckled in her heart. She asked in a very “considerate” tone, “Senior Brother, just speak your mind, if Junior Sister can help you, she will definitely do her best to help you.”
He wanted to reach out and grab Gu Qing’s hand, but Gu Qing suddenly lowered her head and opened her own Universe Bag, “Senior Brother, did you give me the pills? You don’t have any pills to increase your cultivation?”
Gu Qing thought, since she had already played herself to such an extent, how long would the other party take?
“It’s such a pity, Zi Jin. If you don’t raise your Later Period of Foundation Stage, how will you be able to compete with the disciples of the other sects for the spots?”
Her face was filled with concern and worry. Gu Qing also pretended to be worried and added on: “I’m also very worried, and I think I’ll still be eliminated in the end.”
Qingyang had been waiting for her words, he immediately continued: “Zi Jin, honestly, I will beat you up this time, maybe we will fight later. If there is only one of us left, I hope it will be you.”
So that’s how it is!
Gu Qing’s eyes flashed, she did not reveal the slightest flaw and asked: “Senior Brother, what do you want to say?”
“I’ll let you win the match later. I’ll wait for you to level up.” Qingyang sighed, his eyes filled with gentleness and love.
Gu Qing trembled, she avoided his gaze and continued, “Senior Brother, your cultivation is higher than mine, only you have the chance to fight for one of the few places in the competition. Even if you let me go, I think I would still be eliminated, so, this place should be given to senior brother.”
When Qingyang heard this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. What a fool!
He thought like this in his heart, but his outer appearance seemed to be extremely moved, “Zi Jin, if you give it to me but I can’t get the placing, wouldn’t I be letting down on your good intentions?”
Gu Qing shook his head, “Senior Brother, even if I go myself, I might not even get a placing.
The two of them were talking when the bell in front rang out. Qingyang had already gotten the answer he wanted, and was too lazy to continue the fight with her, he directly said: “The competition is about to start, Zi Jin, let’s go.”
The corner of Gu Qing’s mouth slightly hooked up as she nodded: “Alright!”
In a short period of time, Gu Qing understood that Qingyang was a rogue cultivator and her vigilance was not inferior to others. Therefore, even if her cultivation was below his, he still made preparations with both hands, making it so that Gu Qing would be willing to give up.
With these two preparations, normal people would think that Azure Sun’s victory was already in his grasp. Unfortunately, he did not meet an ordinary cultivator, but Gu Qing, who had already seen through his thoughts.
Previously, Gu Qing had also guessed that Qingyang had only approached him because of the competition quota, but she never expected that Qingyang would actually be willing to sacrifice such a large sum for him to let her guard down. In this past month, even though the things that he had gifted him couldn’t be considered as treasures, they were definitely not cheap either.
Now that he thought about it, Qingyang was a talent that was truly powerful. He had calculated that he wouldn’t be able to advance to the Later Period of Foundation Stage in a short amount of time, and wouldn’t be able to bear to part with his children.
Therefore, Gu Qing did not underestimate her opponent.
Very quickly, the namelist of the competition was revealed. Gu Qing and Qing Yang were rivals after all. The two of them stood opposite each other. Qingyang’s eyes showed some reluctance as he said, “Junior Sister, I will be a bit lighter. Don’t worry.”
Gu Qing smiled slightly, “Senior Brother, you can be at ease as well. Zi Jin will make a very light move as well.”
Qing Yang didn’t even notice the hidden meaning behind her words. He assumed that she was just giving him a word of reassurance, so he relaxed.
Just as the competition was about to begin, Gu Qing noticed that Liu Ying was standing beside Yuan Lang and was looking in her direction to say something to Liu Ying excitedly.
Gu Qing only took a glance before retracting her gaze. After all, she was dealing with a rogue cultivator who relied entirely on himself to climb up and improve his strength. His strength and scheming far exceeded cultivators of the same level. She had to focus all her attention to deal with it.
“Junior Sister, be careful!” After he finished speaking, Bluesea launched his attack.
Gu Qing felt the surrounding Spirit Qi freeze, and the temperature dropped slowly. Her expression changed as she immediately cast a fireball, hoping to melt the ice wall that was gradually forming. However, the ice was not ordinary ice, and the fireball technique was unable to do anything to it.
Gu Qing’s heart trembled. This Qingyang was indeed as cunning as a fox, she had clearly already promised this to him, but in her heart, it was obvious that he didn’t believe him.
Gu Qing let out a cold snort, and immediately put away the fireball. The Spirit Qi in her body started to circulate, and a long whip, agile like a snake, rushed towards the ice wall in front of her.
With the first click, a crack appeared on the ice wall.
Qingyang’s heart skipped a beat when he saw this, but he quickly calmed down. After all, the two of them had only exchanged one move. If the other side were to admit defeat now, it would arouse suspicion instead. Therefore, with a turn of his body, the spirit energy in his hand turned into a water dragon, rushing straight in Gu Qing’s direction.
When the water dragon appeared, it made everyone’s heart tremble. It obviously brought with it the pressure of the High Ranked Cultivator to crush Gu Qing mercilessly. Gu Qing was one level lower than Qingyang, so she couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat under the pressure of the spirit, and she unconsciously took a step back.
This water dragon cannot take it head-on!
In that moment, Gu Qing dispelled the thought of using her spirit energy to protect herself from the opponent’s attack. She immediately used the Wind Chasing Incantation and her figure flew past her location like the wind. The water dragon opened its mouth and bit at nothing.
Qingyang was a little surprised that Gu Qing was able to escape from his hands once again. After all, hesheid not hold back, but she could tell that Gu Qing’s strength was not weak. Inwardly, he was glad that she had kept her trump card up his sleeve. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to defeat his opponent in a real fight. After all, in the previous few rounds, he could see that his opponent’s spiritual energy was plentiful.
