Chapter 103 Strangers Three Years Later
Xie Wanning breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if she had escaped a disaster.
If Jiang Ci really recognizes her identity, then Yan Ze will definitely take her back.
With the sun high overhead, Xie Wanning wandered around Qingyun Peak for a while before finally deciding to head to Fu Peak.
She wanted to go see Tian Ruochun.
I wonder how Oda is doing?
When she "died," Xiaotian was placed under house arrest at Fufeng and was not allowed to attend her trial. Xiaotian must have been greatly shocked to learn of her "death."
Xie Wan Ning remembered that she had promised to bring Xiao Tian a gift when she went to the Lingyun Secret Realm. She did keep her promise; she picked many spiritual herbs, but she didn't give them to Xiao Tian in person, and she didn't know if Xiao Tian had received her gift.
It's been three years since I last saw Xiaotian; she must have grown into a beautiful young woman.
Thinking of that pale yellow figure in her memory, and Tian Ruochun with her always sincere smile, Xie Wanning's lips curled up slightly, her eyes filled with anticipation for their reunion.
We arrived at Fufeng.
The talisman-drawing competition is in full swing.
The talisman-drawing competition is not about who draws the best or most numerous talismans. Talisman cultivators are skilled in combat, and they need to bring talisman paper and ink to draw talismans on the spot for battle. Whoever is knocked off the arena first will be eliminated.
Therefore, talisman cultivators not only compete in the speed and quality of drawing talismans, but also in their combat skills.
Explosive talismans, freezing talismans, fireball talismans, and other highly destructive talismans exploded on the arena, accompanied by encouraging cheers, making the entire competition exceptionally lively.
"In the next match, Lin Jingquan, the second disciple of Tianyan Sect, will face Tian Ruochun, the second disciple of Fufeng of Qingyun Sect."
"Go, Pigsy! You're the best!"
"Second Brother, we all support you!"
"Second Senior Brother, defeat the Qingyun Sect on the other side."
……
Lin Jingquan's group of disciples shouted and swaggered towards the audience opposite them.
Most of the spectators on the opposite side were disciples from the Qingyun Sect.
However, to everyone's surprise, the Qingyun Sect disciples who were cheering them on suddenly fell silent. Even in the face of the Tianyan Sect disciples' crazy provocations, they remained silent and discussed something quietly with the disciples around them.
Xie Wanning had excellent hearing, and she overheard the conversation between the Qingyun Sect disciples.
"How could it be Tian Ruochun? I don't even want to watch this competition anymore."
"Yes! Who wants to be associated with her?"
"Why don't we hurry up and leave? Maybe we can still catch up with the other matches."
……
The Qingyun Sect disciples opposite were full of disgust in their words, and some of them had even left their seats.
Xie Wanning could only feel disbelief. She remembered that Xiao Tian was honest and generous, and had good friends in Fufeng and Qingyun Sect. Most of the disciples opposite her were from Fufeng of Qingyun Sect. Why would he abandon their second senior sister and choose to leave so heartlessly?
Xie Wanning felt her heart pounding and her breathing becoming increasingly labored.
What exactly did Oda experience in these three years?
The contestant quickly took to the stage. Lin Jingquan was dressed in a purple robe with tiger patterns sewn with gold thread. He wore three jade pendants at his waist, a gold crown, and a delicate and translucent emerald green jade around his neck, exuding wealth and luxury.
"Second Senior Brother is so handsome!" "Second Senior Brother, you are the face of the Tianyan Sect!" Such praises rose and fell, the voices were loud and clear, and even the birds flying over the talisman peak were disturbed and quickly flapped their wings to leave.
Xie Wanning couldn't hear anything; her gaze remained fixed on the figure on the stage—Tian Ruochun, whom she hadn't seen for three years.
Tian Ruochun was dressed in a plain white robe, the sleeves fluttering in the wind. A light blue hairband hung naturally over her long, dark hair, which cascaded over her shoulders. Her skin was as smooth as jade, and she looked as if she had stepped out of a painting, exuding a fresh and elegant purity.
However, what Xie Wan Ning found unfamiliar was Tian Ruo Chun's eyes, which kept everyone at a distance. Those clear, watery eyes were completely still, as if covered with a thin layer of frost. The bright smile on her face was gone; the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, cold and sharp like an ice pick that had never melted.
Xie Wanning couldn't connect the person in front of her with the Tian Ruochun in her memory. Although the two looked the same, their temperament and expressions were completely opposite.
The competition on stage began soon.
Lin Jingquan took out twenty talisman papers and drew twenty fifth-grade explosive talismans with a gold-rimmed pen, which he then launched at Tian Ruochun.
Tian Ruochun took out a talisman and instantly wrote a seventh-grade defensive talisman, which blocked all of Lin Jingquan's attacks.
Lin Jingquan frowned slightly, but his pen did not stop. He cast out ten Grade 5 Heavenly Thunder Talismans, ten Grade 5 Ice Cone Talismans, and five Grade 6 Storm Talismans.
A fierce wind, mixed with lightning and shattered ice, swept towards Tian Ruochun with unstoppable force. Lin Jingquan's lips curled slightly; this was a move he had created himself, immensely powerful and invincible.
Unexpectedly, Tian Ruochun took out three talisman papers, and with the pen in her hand flowing like water, she drew three seventh-grade water wall talismans in an instant, instantly neutralizing Lin Jingquan's attack.
Lin Jingquan was so angry that he gritted his teeth. He had never heard of Tian Ruochun before and thought she was just a nobody in the Qingyun Sect. He never expected her to have such abilities.
Lin Jingquan went all out, drawing talismans with both hands simultaneously, producing twenty fifth-grade explosive talismans and ten sixth-grade fireball talismans. In an instant, flames soared into the sky, and the intense heat made the audience outside the arena sweat profusely.
Lin Jingquan looked at Tian Ruochun, who was surrounded by flames, and felt extremely proud: This was a talisman he had drawn with most of his spiritual power, and he did not believe that Tian Ruochun could catch it.
Tian Ruochun remained unfazed. With lightning speed, she unleashed ten Rank 7 Frost Talismans, turning the entire arena into a snowy wasteland, while the previous flames vanished without a trace.
Just as Lin Jingquan was shocked, Tian Ruochun soared into the air and unleashed five seventh-grade ice cone talismans, which rained down on the arena like a storm.
Even though Lin Jingquan used his remaining spiritual power to draw three seventh-grade defensive talismans, he was still injured by the ice spikes and had to tumble and crawl off the arena to save his life.
"You crazy woman, it's just a competition, why did you have to be so vicious?!" Lin Jingquan cursed, pointing at Tian Ruochun in the sky. There were more than a dozen ice spikes behind him, and his expensive robes were torn to shreds.
Tian Ruochun's eyes were deep and he remained silent.
A gentle breeze blew by, and the blue ribbon in her hair fluttered in the wind, making her look so indifferent.
"In this contest, Fu Fengtian Ruochun of Qingyun Sect has emerged victorious!" The elder, acting as the referee, announced the result.
The disciples in charge of medical care carried away the cursing Lin Jingquan, along with a group of Tianyan Sect disciples, their faces filled with anger and disgust.
The competition required knocking the opponent off the stage, and injury was inevitable. However, Tian Ruochun's attack was too fierce, unlike in previous matches where both sides' disciples were more cautious and didn't strike as hard.
Tian Ruochun left alone.
Xie Wanning quickly followed. She wanted to talk to Tian Ruochun. Even if she couldn't reveal her true identity, Xie Wanning hoped to learn more about Tian Ruochun.
After all, Tian Ruochun is too unfamiliar to us now.
Xie Wanning followed Tian Ruochun to the outside of the competition venue, where there was no one around.
Tian Ruochun turned around, her eyes cold: "What do you want with me?"
