Shocking Venomous Consort: Frivolous Miss Chapter 525 - Not Leaving nor Forsaking

Chapter 525: Not Leaving nor Forsaking

“If you want to silence people using such means, it is best to cancel your plans. You can’t kill me and if you try, you should understand the outcome without me having to say it,” added the old man indifferently since he could tell of Ghost Shadow’s hesitation. The threatening undertone in the old man’s words was something Ghost Shadow and the rest of his men could well understand even if they were to use their b.u.t.ts to think.

“Very well then, we shall not continue to make things difficult for these two today.” Facing the old man’s invisible threat, Ghost Shadow finally came to a difficult decision. The old man was right. Even with the cultivation of the few of them put together, they indeed could not kill him. Once things were made into a bigger hoo-ha, the unfortunate one would definitely be Cold Moon Palace. Since the old man had already promised to keep things a secret, why was there a need for them to take such a huge risk?

Ghost Shadow and his men left in a hurry. This matter needed to be reported to the young master as soon as possible, and then to the palace master in order for them to come up with a good countermeasure just in case.

“Senior, thank you for your saving grace. How should I address you?” Ling Chuxi spoke in the respectful manner of a junior towards the old man. She could tell that this old man did not wish to cause more unnecessary trouble. Facing off against Ghost Shadow and his men had actually already caused him quite a bit of trouble.

“There’s no need to be so courteous, I was entrusted this task by others,” replied the old man indifferently. There was some admiration in his gaze as he looked at Ling Chuxi to reply to her query. He had seen the exciting battle earlier on and was in awe that she was able to fight a balanced battle against the opponents in the realm of True Essence with Great Fulfilment Pinnacle stage cultivation. It left even him exclaiming in shock secretly. And the display of Ling Chuxi and Ling Yichen’s “not leaving nor forsaking” friends.h.i.+p in the light of death had left him even more touched.

If he put aside Cold Moon Palace and not mention it, he was also gratified that Young Master could make such friends. However, thinking of Cold Moon Palace, he could not help but worry for Jiang Wuhen. Unless it was absolutely a situation without a choice, he really did not hope for Jiang Wuhen to be drawn into the muddy swamp of sect fighting.

“I’m unsure who entrusted Senior this task, but it would be good for us to thank that person,” said Ling Chuxi. She wondered in her heart who exactly was this person this old man was talking about.

Seeing this old man’s cultivation, it was more likely than not that he was someone from a sect as well. To be able to invite him to make such a move was naturally not something any ordinary person could do. Mu Liufeng? Mo Kongyuan? Elder Brother? A few possibilities flashed across Ling Chuxi’s mind, and she felt like it could be anyone, yet felt like it was no one she knew.

“You don’t have to ask me further about this. When that person is willing to let you know, you will naturally find out,” replied the old man with a smile.

“All right then. Senior, please help us to send our thanks, and we also thank you for your helping hand today.” Seeing that the old man was not willing to speak more on this, Ling Chuxi also did not ask anymore. However, she was sincerely grateful to this person who was helping them from behind. Just a simple revelation of this matter would definitely bring that person a huge load of trouble. Who exactly was it that was willing to help them like this despite the risks?

Thinking about this led Ling Chuxi to recall how fierce and ruthless Cold Moon Palace truly was, and naturally a thread of anger and hatred appeared in her eyes. ‘Those crazies, sooner or later I will make them pay.’

“The other party’s cultivation should not be taken lightly. If you do not have sufficient confidence, it would be best not to easily provoke them,” advised the old man as he could see the rage brewing in Ling Chuxi’s eyes. He was a little bit in admiration of Ling Chuxi’s innate talent and character, therefore he did not wish for her to make a stupid move like using an egg to attack a rock. Furthermore, he did not wish for Jiang Wuhen to be caught up in it.

“Many thanks for such a reminder, Senior,” said Ling Chuxi. However, her heart was ruminating on another matter altogether. With the character of Cold Moon Palace being that they had to take revenge for every little thing, even if she did not first find fault with them, they would also not easily let her off the hook. Rather than being pa.s.sive and taking their beatings, she might as well make the first move to gain an advantage.

Although she was no match for them head on, could it be that even if she were to stab a cold knife into their backs, she was still not a match? This was Ling Chuxi’s specialty after all.
