Chapter 196: 196: A Nervous Zhuang Huanling

“You and Shuier, oh… You have been separated for just two months and already can’t stand it?”

“Hehe, the bond between sisters is deep.”

It was rare for Zhuang Huanling to be mischievous and playful, this was something Elder Wu was accustomed to indulging.

Without further delay, he commanded the team to quicken their pace towards the inn they were lodging in. Lin Yucheng was probably waiting for them there already.

At that moment, a mischievous girl who had run out earlier to gather news suddenly rushed back feverishly.

“Big news, big news!”

Jiang Yuer exclaimed, “Sister Linger, something big happened in Chengdu today. A bastard named Hong Shixian challenged three of the top holy sons and daughters. Neither Li Xuanlin nor Lin Sien were his match, he even knocked Gong Shuier from Purple Garden Mountain into unconsciousness!”

“Not only that, he created a ruckus in the City Lord’s mansion. On the bulletin board, there is an additional warrant for his arrest, with a reward of fifty million top-grade spirit stones!”

Upon hearing this, Zhuang Huanling halted in shock.

“What did you say, Shuier fell into a coma due to severe injuries?”

“Is that true?”

Zhuang Huanling was extremely agitated at this point.

Knowing her close relationship with Gong Shuier, Jiang Yuer turned serious and said solemnly, “Of course it’s true, the entire Chengdu city is talking about it.”

“Not good, I need to see Shuier!”

Immediately, Zhuang Huanling became frantic. Ignoring the team, she sped up on her own towards the inn.

Arriving at the inn anxiously, Zhuang Huanling immediately rushed towards the detached courtyard where the disciples of Purple Garden Mountain were staying. She barged in and saw a crowd standing around inside.

Instantly, Zhuang Huanling’s anxious mood, like being hit with a heavy hammer, caused her to slightly lose her balance.

“Make way, make way!”

“What is Shuier’s condition now!”

Without any hesitation, Zhuang Huanling pushed through the crowd and started walking in.

The surrounding disciples of Purple Garden Mountain turned pale upon realizing that the person who came was Zhuang Huanling, the holy girl of Jade Top Mountain.

If this witch knew about Goddess’s situation, the entire province would be thrown into chaos!

“Cough cough, Miss Linger, please slow down. Our Goddess is fine.” A leading disciple hastily shouted.

“Get out of my way!”

Zhuang Huanling let out a cold humph, the aura of Dividing the Gods intermediate stage cultivation exploded out of her, pushing the crowd away instantly. Without caring that her blue veil had fallen to the ground, she rushed towards the room with an anxious expression.

Just as she was reaching the room’s entrance, the door was opened and Lin Yucheng walked out with a sigh on his face.

“Eh? Miss Linger, what happened to you? Why are you crying?” Lin Yucheng asked in surprise.

Upon seeing Lin Yucheng, Zhuang Huanling quickly composed herself and anxiously asked, “Elder Lin, how is Shuier’s condition?”

“I have many pills and elixirs that my master gave me here. You can take them all. She has to be alright.”

Seeing her anxious demeanor, Lin Yucheng shook his head and chuckled lightly.

“Alright, alright, why are you so agitated? Did you listen to the rumors from outside?”

“Eh?” Zhuang Huanling was stunned.

“Shuier did lose consciousness today, but contrary to the popular belief, it wasn’t due to severe injuries. In reality, her realm was unstable, and her rage accelerated her condition.”

“Now, she is alright. Not only that, she has stumbled upon a huge opportunity.”

Hearing Lin Yucheng’s explanation, Zhuang Huanling finally relaxed a bit. However, she was still worried about Gong Shuier.

“Elder Lin, let me have a look at her, just one glimpse, can I?”

“Of course you can. But don’t disturb her, let her regain her strength. She should be fine by early tomorrow.” Lin Yucheng nodded lightly and stepped aside.

Zhuang Huanling rushed in but was very careful in her movements, afraid of disturbing Gong Shuier.

Seeing Gong Shuier on the bed, her face slightly pale and her eyes shut in her unconscious state, Zhuang Huanling’s eyes filled with tears. But, she indeed kept her word. After taking a look and staying for a while, she wiped her tears and walked out immediately.

Outside, the team from Jade Top Mountain had already arrived, and Lin Yucheng was explaining the day’s events to Wu Ruoxue.

“Elder Lin, what exactly happened today?”

At this time, Zhuang Huanling had put on a blue veil and stood outside. Her eyes visible through her veil were clear and icy.

With a bitter smile on his face, Lin Yucheng explained everything that had happened that day. However, he didn’t mention Jiang Xiaobai’s pill. He planned to see Gong Shuier’s condition first before deciding whether to reveal it.

Otherwise, if it turned out to be useless after he mentioned it, it would backfire.

Even though it was a normal contest and Gong Shuier’s coma had nothing to do with Jiang Xiaobai directly, everyone could sense that Zhuang Huanling was extremely angry at this moment.

Many disciples from Purple Garden Mountain felt a chill run down their backs.

This is it, this witch is angry.

An upheaval is about to stir in the province.

Even though Zhuang Huanling appeared calm and composed like a restrained girl at the moment, only those who had seen her wreaking havoc would know the true meaning of the term ‘witch’.

Seeing Zhuang Huanling in such a state, Lin Yucheng felt embarrassed and quickly said, “There’s nothing to worry about in this matter. Everything is normal. Shuier only found herself in this situation due to her unstable realm.

Don’t overthink it.’

Zhuang Huanling only nodded indifferently without saying anything more, and walked out of the courtyard.

Lin Yucheng forced a smile: “Elder Wu, you should go and advise her quickly. That Hong Shixian is no ordinary man, and I quite like him. Hope there won’t be a misunderstanding.”

Elder Wu also had a bitter expression: “You think I don’t want to persuade her? For such matters, my words won’t hold any sway. Even if the sect leader were to attempt to persuade her, it would all be in vain. The only person who might make a difference is probably Shuier.”

“This… we can’t harm the harmony. Hong Shixian definitely has a powerful force backing him. Not only that, his talent and potential are beyond what I have ever seen before.

“Can you believe that someone in the Yuan Infant late stage can compete against someone in the Dividing the Gods early stage?”

Wu Ruoxue nodded: “Indeed, that’s remarkable. I’ll go and talk to that girl.”

“Fine. We cannot mess around. It’s highly likely that Hong Shixian will go to the Mad Demon Secret Land for trials. If they happen to meet, they might collaborate and thus increase the chances of success.”

Immediately after, Wu Ruoxue didn’t waste any time and went to find Zhuang Huanling.

“Don’t worry Elder Wu, Linger knows what she’s doing.”

Just with these words, she shut the door on him.

Seeing this, Wu Ruoxue felt a bitter smile creeping upon his lips despite the urgency, but he couldn’t do anything about it. In the end, he could only inform the sect leader of Jade Top Mountain and sent the sect leader’s guards to protect Hong Shixian.

After all, everybody knew how terrifying it could be when the Holy Girl threw a tantrum.

The sect leader of Jade Top Mountain was also alarmed and immediately designated an elder to find this man, Hong Shixian, for fear that Zhuang Huanling would end up causing him harm.

Meanwhile, in a dense forest valley a hundred miles outside Chengdu, Jiang Xiaobai was obliviously enjoying roasting meat with AnRan, completely unaware of the massive trouble that was coming his way..
