Chapter 21: Master Said Men Who Invite Women to Drink Always Have Schemes
Chen Qingyan nodded and said, “Speak!”
Although Lin Fengmian did not know why she was helping him, he still gave her a grateful look.
He said seriously, “Since Senior Sister Liu believes that my strength is inferior to Senior Brother Ji’s, I am willing to have a match with Senior Brother Ji. If I lose, I will voluntarily retire.”
Chen Qingyan looked at him in surprise, then turned to Liu Mei, “What do you think, Senior Sister Liu?”
Liu Mei frowned and looked at the other three, “What do you think?”
Xia Yunxi naturally raised both hands in support, “I think he should be given a chance.”
Wang Yanran and Mo Ruoyu hesitated, but still said ambiguously, “We’re fine with either one.”
Liu Mei snorted and then nodded, “All right, then it will be as you say.”
Ji Chenbo was furious when he saw his secure position being threatened by Lin Fengmian.
This guy must have some connection with Senior Sister Chen and Xia, otherwise why would they help him?
Ji Chenbo looked at Lin Fengmian with a dark face, “Senior Brother Lin, you are no match for me, I advise you not to humiliate yourself!”
Lin Fengmian shook his head, “Sorry, Junior Brother Ji, I have to have this spot!”
Ji Chenbo snorted coldly, “Then don’t blame me for being rude!”
The two of them stood in the middle, and Liu Mei smiled slightly, “The match begins!”
Knowing Lin Fengmian’s habits, Ji Chenbo did not let him get close to him easily, and shot a fireball spell at Lin Fengmian from a distance.
Lin Fengmian frowned; he was not adept at these elemental spells because his spiritual roots were too mixed, and practicing them required too much effort.
He was forced to run around the field dodging fireballs, unable to get close to Ji Chenbo.
Ji Chenbo relaxed and laughed, “Senior Brother Lin, I thought you were so strong!”
Lin Fengmian’s eyes flashed with a cold light, gradually catching up to the speed of the fireballs, then charged towards him.
Dodging various fireballs, he quickly approached.
As Lin Fengmian approached, Ji Chenbo clearly panicked and kept retreating.
His face contorted, he shouted, “You’re forcing my hand! Fire Rock Spell!”
A massive fireball rolled out, heading towards Lin Fengmian, the heat waves were intense, if Lin Fengmian was hit, he would be severely injured or even killed.
On the stone platform, Chen Qingyan and the others were concentrating intently, ready to intervene at any moment.
Lin Fengmian, however, did not dodge, and as he was hit head on, his sword suddenly came out.
A swift sword light shot out, a sharp sword intent appeared, and the fireball split into two.
Chen Qingyan’s eyes lit up as she looked at Lin Fengmian in astonishment.
At that moment, Lin Fengmian placed the wooden sword on Ji Chenbo’s neck, his expression cold.
Ji Chenbo was startled by Lin Fengmian, sweating profusely, his eyes filled with intense reluctance.
He was about to make a move with his hand, but Lin Fengmian pressed the wooden sword harder, his voice icy, “Junior Brother Ji, it’s better if you don’t move, otherwise I won’t be polite.”
Ji Chenbo’s face was grim as he finally conceded, “Senior Brother Lin is superior, Chenbo is convinced.”
Lin Fengmian then sheathed the wooden sword and bowed slightly with a smile, “Thank you.
Chen Qingyan’s lips curved slightly as she looked at Liu Mei, “Senior Sister Liu?”
Under everyone’s gaze, Liu Mei couldn’t go back on her word and gave Lin Fengmian a meaningful look.
“Junior Brother Lin has great abilities. Since that’s the case, Junior Brother Lin will get the qualification for this trip down the mountain.”
Lin Fengmian bowed, “Thank you, Senior Sister!”
Liu Mei chuckled lightly, “You earned it with your own skills, no need to thank me!”
She looked at the five of them and instructed, “Tomorrow morning, the five of you will gather at the foot of Crimson Phoenix Peak. We will prepare ourselves and then go down the mountain.”
The five of them agreed in unison, while the other leeks looked at Lin Fengmian and the others with envy, wishing they could take their place.
Lin Fengmian was extremely excited; he was finally going to leave the Joyful Union Sect.
On the platform, Xia Yunxi saw Lin Fengmian’s excited expression and couldn’t help but smile sweetly.
Lin Fengmian looked at her and nodded slightly in return.
That night, the jade pendant lit up faintly, and Lin Fengmian had now figured out the pattern.
The connection time of the pendant was not fixed; he could enter the space as long as the energy was fully charged.
However, if it was not activated, it would retain its energy and wait for the next night to activate.
The pendant needed three days to recharge after completely depleting its energy before it could be activated again.
Activating the pendant required both parties to not resist; if one of them resisted, they couldn’t enter the room.
Previously, Lin Fengmian and Luo Xue didn’t resist because they didn’t know the source of the space they were being pulled into, and they were both pulled in unconsciously.
Now that they knew about the pendant, they agreed not to enter the space unless necessary, so as not to disturb each other.
Lin Fengmian held the pendant and responded to its call, waiting for Luo Xue’s response.
On the other side, Luo Xue looked at the glowing pendant and was a bit surprised.
Was that guy looking for her?
Without hesitation, Luo Xue followed the call of the pendant, stepped back into the space, and met Lin Fengmian, who was smiling warmly.
Seeing that Lin Fengmian seemed to be in a good mood, Luo Xue curiously asked, “Why are you so happy?”
Lin Fengmian couldn’t contain his happiness, “I found a way to go down the mountain with them, and maybe I can find a way to escape on the way.”
Luo Xue’s eyes lit up at the news, “That’s great! What are your plans?”
“What else can I plan? I’ll try to find a way to escape from this demon lair,” Lin Fengmian said with a bitter smile.
Then he looked at Luo Xue with burning eyes full of anticipation, “Do you have any moves you can teach me for self-defense and escape?”
Luo Xue smiled, “It’s quite a coincidence, I just happened to go to the library today and learned some basic sword moves for you.”
“That’s wonderful!” Lin Fengmian said excitedly.
“Watch closely!”
Luo Xue demonstrated a series of unadorned sword moves to Lin Fengmian. Although these were ordinary moves for Luo Xue, they were already exquisite to Lin Fengmian.
Unlike the complex moves that Luo Xue had initially taught, Lin Fengmian quickly grasped them.
He looked at Luo Xue with deep emotion, “Miss Luo, it’s all thanks to you this time.”
Luo Xue smiled, “I didn’t help you much, you came up with the plan yourself. But if you insist on thanking me, I’ll reluctantly accept.”
Lin Fengmian looked at her with mixed feelings, “If only you and I were in the same place and you could come to me directly. I would definitely invite you for a drink.”
Luo Xue’s big eyes curved into a smile, “Invite me to drink? My master says that men who invite women to drink are always up to something.”
Lin Fengmian chuckled, “I just want to sincerely thank you!”
