Chapter 703: The Shameless Elder Sima
“FUCK! FUCK! FUCK!” Tian Han cursed to himself.
“DAMN THIS TRIBULATION! WHO THE HELL EVEN HAS TEN BOLTS OF TRIBULATION LIGHTING!” He continued.
“I know for sure I’m not that talented!” Tian Han self depreciated. “Five bolts? Six Bolts? Sure… seven? Maybe… EIGHT! NINE! FUCKING TEN!!! NO WAY!”
By the time he said this, he was out of breath again. Withstanding the tribulation had taken a lot of his energy and he was already out of spirit Qi. In fact, other than the Infant Nascent soul that was floating in his Dantian, there was no spirit Qi left.
Even his meridians had dried up.
This was the complete opposite of his earlier condition when he was in spirit Qi overload. Now he was deficit in spirit Qi instead!
Tian Chu who witnessed it all, was no less shocked.
“Just what did master Lin Wu do? Is his touch really this magical that it can transform that average genius into a top tier genius needing ten tribulation bolts to breakthrough?” Tian Chu said to herself.
~slap~
She even slapped herself to confirm that she was not dreaming and this was real.
Tian Chu compared herself to Tian Han and realized that she was now lagging behind him in a way.
‘If I remember the feeling back, then… I should have had at least five tribulation lightning bolts. But master blocked it off for me.’ Tian Chu thought to herself.
But comparing herself to Tian Han’s tribulation only made her a little depressed.
Her face fell but soon changed after looking at the state of Tian Han.
“That little lice will probably die, anyway. Why do I need to care? HUMPH!~” Tian Chu said with a little flourish.
Her eyes went to the people of the Frozen Cliff division in the distance and locked onto the rather powerful looking elder in the front.
“That guy… isn’t he Elder Qianshu?” Tian Chu recognized.
She had known of the man since he was rather important in the Frozen Cloud sect. Not only was he a high elder at the Dao Shell realm, but he was also the only son of the Frozen Cloud sect’s Supreme elder!
Back when Tian Han and she were scouting the sect and Tian Han was being enticed to join the Frozen Cliff division, he was told a lot about the glory of Elder Qianshu. About how he was strong and was the major contender to be the next supreme elder or even the patriarch if things worked out.
But a few seconds later, beads of cold sweat appeared on the forehead of Tian Chu.
“Damn, if he’s here then the danger just increased by quite a bit…” Tian Chu realized.
While she had a trust in the formation array that Lin Wu had made, she just didn’t know if it would be able to go against someone as powerful as Elder Qianshu.
‘I won’t know until I try… I can’t disappoint master either…’ Tian Chu thought as determination appeared on her face.
She gripped the control token harder in her hand and looked at the sky. The wind was blowing and the clouds had already started to change color. From the previous black, they were now Grey and soon would return to the milky white color clouds one would normally see.
“I need to wait for the right moment… only if all of them are in the limits of the formation will it have the best effect.” Tian Chu said as she measured their steps.
~WHOOSH~
The spirit Qi in the air swirled and soon turned into a vortex that spun over Tian Han’s head.
“The spirit Qi infusion started… they should be moving any moment now.” Tian Chu muttered, without moving her gaze from the elders of the Frozen Cliff division.
And just as she had expected, the elders started to move. First, two elders from the group rushed towards Tian Han, a few pill bottles were present in their hands.
‘Huh? What are they doing?’ Tian Chu was confused.
A second later, she heard the elders shouting.
“HE’S ALIVE! Just injured!” The elder who was tending to Tian Han announced.
He had already fed a healing pill to Tian Han and was about to feed him another one.
“Make sure to pause till the burst of spirit Qi is absorbed by his body.” The second elder standing there spoke.
“Of course! Do you think this is my first time doing this? I’ve been an elder of the healing pavilion for three hundred years!” the elder said loudly, hoping that Tian Han would remember it in his mind and establish a good relationship with him.
A few more elders reached the location, and checked up on Tian Han, finding him to be weak and injured, but not in a life threatening condition anymore.
“Hang on… I know him!” An elder said suddenly, startling the other elders as well as Tian Chu.
‘Did they really recognize him in that state?’ Tina Chu was surprised as well.
“Who is he?” The elders asked.
“Well of course, he’s one of my external disciples that I recruited when I went out for a mission a few years ago. Seems like he finally made his way to the sect.” The elder said.
Hearing this, all the elders were taken aback and so was Tian Chu.
“What the fuck?” Someone cursed in a low voice.
“Huh?” The elders looked towards the person cursing and raised their brows.
It was none other than Tian Han himself.
“Ahahah! Look! Look! My disciple is awake!” The elder said while thumping Tian Han’s back.
“Fucking geezer! Stop hitting me, I’ll die again!” Tian Han scowled without fear.
It was clear that his mind was not in the right place currently.
“Hahah! This disciple of mine was born from a courtesan and wasn’t taught manners. Please forgive his tongue.” The elder said with a wide smile.
But seeing this, a few ideas appeared in the minds of other elders.
“YOU!!! SHAMELESS!”
“ELDER SIMA! HOW SHAMELESS CAN YOU BE!?”
“YEAH! HOW CAN YOU JUST CLAIM SOME RANDOM PERSON TO BE YOUR DISCIPLE?”
The elders finally realized Elder Sima’s ploy to rise in the sect.
