Phoenix Destiny-Chapter 256: Second Time

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Ye Zhenyan felt flustered.

Not only did he lose, but he was also betrayed by his own.

At this time, the Bon Voyage Fleet’s elders seemed to be looking at him. Seeing them, he felt even angrier.

“What, you think we’re a big joke now?” Ye Zhenyan sneered. “Do you know you will also be betrayed by your own?”

Since the fleet could no longer escape their fate, Xuan Xiu’s mood was already very bad, so she looked at him coldly.

Ye Zhenyan looked at her, dumbfounded.

Xuan Xiu sneered. “She told you that she convinced me to attack Lu Mingshu, right?”

Seeing Ye Zhenyan’s eyes widen in shock, she felt way better. “Third Young Master Ye, you think you have everything in your control, huh? What makes you think that I would pull the entire fleet down just because my disciple’s chance was taken away? We, the Bon Voyage Fleet, are nothing but united. No matter what, an outsider could not destroy the bond between us and our siblings. Wen Xin only said that because I lied to her! I have already banned her from going out since she came back, and she’s no longer my disciple! Hmph! Betraying your own and helping others indeed!”

That last sentence was exactly what Ye Zhenyan said to Ye Mingguang.

Ye Zhenyan was now as red as a tomato, as if someone had slapped him hard on his face.

Thinking about it, the plans he had for Jasper Sun Mountain this time around were all in vain.

Talking the Pure White Grace Pavilion into joining forces with him, and then their helper became Lu Mingshu’s friend. Using Wen Xin’s resentment against the Xuan Xiu, but it turned out he was the one being schemed. He joined forces with the Huo Family and the Zhang Family, but one by one, they were eliminated. Even his own brother sided with an outsider.

For the first time in his life, he was doubting his ability.

Ever since he showed his ability, his grandfather gave him the power of deciding on things and commanding. In the Ye Family, he was the one who held the biggest amount of power. He had always believed that he was the most capable person in Beiming of his generation. Even Ling Wuxia, who was way more powerful, couldn’t beat his mind games. But now, he had nothing but losses....

...

Mystic light and sword energy were everywhere in the cave.

Ling Wuxia looked serious.

Lu Mingshu’s ability was better than rumours. If the rumours are accurate, that meant that she improved very quickly.

Does she not meet any bottlenecks? Ling Wuxia narrowed her eyes. f𝗿𝗲e𝒘e𝚋ｎ૦𝘃𝙚𝑙.com

She was born talented. After reaching the Harmonization Realm, she became famous. She could remember how she always had lightning-speed improvement.

But what about Lu Mingshu? Counting from the day she entered the Harmonization Realm, only a year had passed. The rumours she heard clearly stated that Lu Mingshu only defeated Kuai Xin with luck during the Heavenly Door competition, and it was said that she had to play a bunch of tricks to do so.

How good was Kuai Xin? Even though he was going to break through to the Spirit Realm soon and was one of the best in Nine Jade Palace, he was only around Zhang Rulin’s standard. He was even worse than Ye Zhenyan.

The Qilin Festival soon followed. In such a short span of time, Lu Mingshu had improved a lot.

At the start, she was only a bit better than Yu Kuang. With the fights that came later, Lu Mingshu could with almost equally with Kou Wei and Wei Chunqiu on stage. Ling Wuxia could confirm that she was about the same level as Yue Lingyin, give or take.

But now? Ling Wuxia dared to say that Lu Mingshu could defeat Yue Lingyin.

So, Junior Brother He, who was only a bit better than Yu Kuang, couldn’t take her down.

Perhaps even she herself couldn’t take her down.

Who knew what would happen after another year?

This thought brought chills down Ling Wuxia’s spine.

It wasn’t a surprise for Ling Wuxia to lose to Kou Wei and Wei Chunqiu. She was younger than them, and her basics weren’t as strong as theirs... but what about Lu Mingshu? Could Ling Wuxia magnificently break through to the Spirit Realm with the title of Best in the Harmonization Realm?

Suddenly, sword energy appeared in front of her. The sharp sound brought her back to reality.

Upon realizing that she was daydreaming during a battle, Ling Wuxia bit her lips and got herself back to reality. She focused and threw the piece of white silk out.

Swoosh! Rainbow mystic light shone brightly.

Lu Mingshu grabbed her sword tighter and focused on the battle.

With this fight, she learned more about Ling Wuxia and collected more data. Compared to the fight between Kou Wei and Wei Chunqiu, she was able to do more for this battle.

Firstly, Ling Wuxia was still not at the peak yet, which gave Lu Mingshu a better chance to defeat her. Secondly, thanks to Lunar God increasing her ability, Lu Mingshu was able to do better than the Qilin Festival. Thirdly, Lu Mingshu was able to exert all her ability, but Ling Wuxia wasn’t because...

the sword energy with mild golden traces in it was everywhere in the cave. The whole cave was now filled with it.

Everywhere the white silk moved, the mystic light on it would be shattered by the sword energy.

The whole situation was rather weird now.

The whole cave was their battlefield, leaving Ying and Junior Brother He nowhere to stand.

Seeing the mystic light and sword energy in front of her, Ying’s face changed.

If Ling Wuxia was this strong, then Ying’s part was...

The more Ling Wuxia fought, the more frustrated she felt. There must be something that she did, and I missed it. Why do I feel so constrained? What did she do?

Every bit of mystic light was destroyed by the sword energy at the most crucial point. The stone pillars that she stood on limited her ability too, as she constantly needed to think about landing before attacking.

Why is Lu Mingshu not affected? It’s as if she can fly, always landing at the places that are hard to balance on.

Suddenly, Ling Wuxia could hear her junior brother yelling.

Ling Wuxia turned around to have a look.

Lu Mingshu’s eyes lit up at Ling Wuxia turning away her attention.

Good chance!

The mystic force burst out from her body and flowed to her fingertips, the mild golden aura enlarging in an instant, covering all four of them.

Lunar God swept past them, striking with a brilliant light. The light looked like moonlight, and it slowly changed into a sharp blade.

Like a surging wave, the sword light gushed up through the golden aura.

“Senior Sister, look out!” Seeing exceptionally bright sword energy, Junior Brother He’s heart nearly jumped out of his throat as he pounced onto her.

Ling Wuxia was taken aback, and she threw out her silk immediately.

But it was too late; the sword energy landed on Junior Brother He, making him fall. ƒ𝘳ee𝔀e𝚋n૦𝐯el.c𝗼𝓂

Plop!

The white silk went after him, but it didn’t catch him.

The second time. This was the second time she failed.

The first time, she was too late to even notice, and her junior sister was eliminated right in front of her. The second time, she was distracted, so she had to watch her junior brother get eliminated just like that.

Ling Wuxia looked up. The look in her eyes was something no one had ever seen.

She was really angry now!
