As the Universe Turns - Chapter 235
Chapter 235 Adopted
“He … he succeeded!”
Below the valley, shouts of alarm immediately came from below. It had been more than three hundred years since no one had passed the 27th Lingyun Trial, but this person in front of him had actually passed the final Lingyun Trial today!
“Liao Wuchen … Great!”
Ling Luan also jumped up excitedly. The reason why Xiao Chen had gone to resist the four elders’ sword qi was because it was his only chance.
At first, he pretended to break through the defenses of the four elders and then cut down the trumpet flower. In fact, he was only trying to confuse his opponent. Because he knew that with his current strength, it would be impossible for him to break through the defenses of the four elders of Mount Rushan. Therefore, he could only go all out and take the risk to use the method he had just used.
However, the price for doing so was that he had suffered a heavy injury from the combined attack of the four elders.
“Idiot …”
Hua Weiyang watched as Xiao Chen fell from the clouds. He tapped his feet and gently flew up. His left hand opened the Flying Flower Pity Umbrella, and his right hand held him. He held the umbrella and slowly fell to the ground.
“Uh …”
Xiao Chen’s face was deathly pale. Just as he landed on the ground, another mouthful of blood gushed out. Ling Luan hurriedly ran over. When he saw the shocking sword wounds on his body, his face also turned pale. He muttered, “Liao Wuchen … are you … are you alright?”
Ever since she realized it, she had never seen Xiao Chen suffer such a serious injury. In the past, the other party was like a deity, with an unfathomable cultivation base. Every time she encountered danger, the other party would appear beside her to protect her in time. But now, she saw that he was seriously injured …
She hadn’t noticed it when she was down there, but now that she saw that the other party was injured so badly, she felt a mixed feeling in her heart. She couldn’t tell what it was like.
After a long time, she finally reacted. She formed a seal with her hands and condensed a green energy into Xiao Chen’s body to help him relieve his injuries.
“Ling Luan … Thank you.”
Xiao Chen slowly stretched out his hand and handed the sword back to her. At the last moment, he still held the Nine Firmaments Dust Sword tightly in his hand. However, at this moment, the sword was dyed red by the blood in his hand.
“Sorry, your sword is covered in blood …”
“No, no …”
Ling Luan hurriedly shook his head. When he received the Nine Firmaments Dust Sword, when he saw that it was covered in blood, his heart felt as if something had stabbed him. He turned around and looked at his grandfather and several Grand Elders who were slowly walking over. “It’s all you guys. Liao Wuchen was clearly injured. You guys still had to force him to pass the Lingyun Trial. Now that he’s fine, he passed …”
As she spoke, her eyes became redder and redder. At this moment, she felt as if she had been struck by lightning, and her body trembled slightly. Why did she feel so uncomfortable? Why did he feel so uncomfortable when he saw that Liao Wuchen was injured …
It was only now that she suddenly realized something. Many images suddenly appeared in her mind. These images were all about Xiao Chen. From the moment she first met the Extreme Heaven Pagoda, that icy cold person didn’t say a word to her, and then …
But, but …
When she turned around and saw Xiao Chen, who was supporting Hua Weiyang, her heart felt as if it was stabbed by something. Sister Wei Yang was born so beautiful, and Liao Wuchen never smiled. Only when she saw Sister Wei Yang would he smile …
“Ling’er.”
At this moment, Jiang shi walked over. Only then did Ling Luan regain her senses and slowly lean against her mother’s chest. For a moment, she felt her voice choke and she was speechless.
Mrs. Jiang gently hugged her and couldn’t help but sigh softly in her heart. She knew that her daughter was like a mother. Now that her daughter had grown up, how could she not understand her little daughter’s thoughts?
Chu Tianqing slowly walked over and looked at Xiao Chen. He slowly said, “Little friend Wu Chen, you passed the 27th Ling Yun Trial.”
At this moment, the entire valley suddenly quieted down. Everyone looked over and remained silent. Xiao Chen slowly loosened his hands and looked at him, “I wonder what the second condition of the Sect Master is …” Unexpectedly, just as he finished speaking, his entire body suddenly felt dizzy. Finally, he couldn’t hold on any longer and fainted.
As the head of a sect, Chu Tianqing naturally wouldn’t break his promise. Now that Xiao Chen had passed the 27th Lingyun Trial, he only needed to fulfill the second condition. He would definitely hand over the Evergreen Flower Leaf Seed to the other party.
However, right now, no one knew what this second condition was, but it was definitely not something that Xiao Chen was unable to accomplish. Otherwise, what was the point of passing the 27th Lingyun Trial?
As for what this second condition was, he probably wouldn’t know until Xiao Chen woke up.
…
Three days later, Xiao Chen finally woke up. The Heavenly Spirit Sect was proficient in healing techniques. In addition, there were many miraculous healing medicines. After these three days, his injuries had recovered a little.
“You’re awake …”
It was getting dark outside. Hua Weiyang came in just in time. Xiao Chen rubbed his forehead and still felt a little dizzy. He asked, “How long have I been unconscious?”
“Three days.”
Hua Weiyang slowly walked over and gently helped him out of bed, “Are you feeling better?”
“It’s okay …”
Xiao Chen shook his head. Looking at the gauze wrapped around his body, he thought that Wei Yang had done these things for him. He asked, “Did the Sect Master say what the second condition was?”
“I’m afraid you’ll have to go before I know.”
Hua Weiyang did not know what the second condition was, but for some reason, he had a bad premonition and said, “You should come tomorrow if you rest one more night.”
“Alright …”
On this night, the stars and moons were brilliant. A clear light enveloped the entire Spirit Mountain. On the northern horizon, there were occasionally dark clouds enveloping it. It was indescribably strange.
At this moment, in the secret hall of the Heavenly Spirit Sect, Chu Tianqing was sitting at the head of the hall. Below him were the four Grand Elders. After a long silence, Chu Tianqing finally said, “What do you think of this matter?”
“Does Sect Master feel that he is from the Immortal Origin Five Regions across the desert?” Fifth Elder Xiaoxiang opened his mouth to express the doubts of the others.
Chu Tianqing’s gaze narrowed as he asked, “Have you seen the techniques on his body? Especially the sword techniques and footwork. Throughout the entire Immortal North Ancient Realm, can you tell which clan or sect it is?”
“This …”
The four people below fell into silence. They carefully recalled the three days when Xiao Chen challenged Ling Yun. This child possessed a cultivation technique that they had never seen or heard of before. From the looks of it, there was only one possibility, and that was that this child was not from the Immortal Northern Ancient Realm.
Fourth Elder, Granny Tian Qi, asked, “Does the Sect Master plan to give him the Evergreen Flower Leaf Seed?”
Chu Tianqing said, “Since he has already passed the Ling Yun Trial, I will not break my promise. However … he still needs to fulfill the second condition before I can give him the seed of evergreen flowers and leaves.”
“The second condition …”
The four below looked at him. After a while, the four of them came to a sudden realization. They understood what was going on. No wonder the sect master let this child challenge the 27th Ling Yun Trial. So it was like this!
Second Elder Chu Tianyun’s expression immediately changed, “Sect Master, could it be …”
