Chapter 689

~6 min read 1,032 words

However, the Buddhist sect's competition is a bit different; Putuo Temple has an array formation called the Maze Array.

Once inside, a cultivator's every sense will be sealed, and they will fall into total darkness.

And the Putuo Temple disciples' competition is held within this Maze Array.

At the same time, to demonstrate the Buddhist sect's benevolence, the weapons used during the competition are things like wooden swords and wooden sticks.

As Master Juexin's voice fell, the Maze Array was activated, but just at this moment, Su Luoxing spoke up.

"Master Juexin."

"Does Sect Master Su have something to say?"

"Every time the Ten Thousand Buddhas Assembly is held, it is only your Putuo Temple disciples competing. How about we all participate this time? After all, this is your Buddhist sect's grand event; it's only lively if everyone joins in."

Hearing this, Juexin was taken aback. The major sects want to participate too? Since when did you all have this kind of mood?

Didn't you all used to turn your noses up at it?

Actually, Juexin didn't feel there was anything wrong with this; it was a good thing for the major sects to participate.

It was just that Su Luoxing's plan was purely to take revenge on the Dao-One Sect. What could be better than defeating the Dao-One Sect in front of all the major sects?

So, upon seeing Juexin nod, this old thing immediately revealed a malicious smile.

But someone was a step faster than him. Seeing Juexin nod, He Qingqing from the Biyue Valley stood up immediately.

"Xu Jie, I challenge you."

With a face full of resentment, Xu Jie immediately gave a bitter smile upon hearing this.

"Is this crazy woman never going to stop?"

Zhao Zhengping, Liu Shuang, and the others on the side were already used to it. Anyway, ever since they broke up, every time they met, He Qingqing would find various excuses to make things difficult for Xu Jie.

She still held a grudge about what happened back then and didn't understand why Xu Jie had treated her that way.

"Third Senior Brother, what on earth did you do to her?"

"Sigh, it's better not to mention the past."

Ye Changqing asked curiously, but Xu Jie didn't say anything; instead, he stood up and walked to He Qingqing.

"Come on then."

This crazy woman wouldn't give up until she had her fill of madness. Rather than letting her keep going crazy, it was better to give her a chance to vent.

After saying this, Xu Jie walked into the array first. Seeing this, He Qingqing followed closely behind.

Having been beaten to the punch, Su Luoxing's old face darkened, but facing a junior, he couldn't really say anything.

Anyway, there would be opportunities sooner or later; there was no rush for this one moment.

After receiving their wooden swords and walking into the array, He Qingqing had all her senses sealed.

Xu Jie, however, was full of confusion: Why can I see? Am I completely unaffected by the array?

Looking through the array at Juexin, who was smiling and nodding at him, Xu Jie realized: Is he cheating for me?

These bald donkeys are getting better at playing games.

One person is unaffected by the array, while the other has all senses sealed by it; the outcome of this battle is already set.

Xu Jie also intended to just play along with He Qingqing for a bit and then end it.

But when he turned his head to look at He Qingqing, Xu Jie was stunned.

"What the f..."

He saw this young lady directly put away her wooden sword and take out her own personal sword—an upper-grade Heaven-rank weapon.

Holding her sword, a cold smile appeared on the corner of He Qingqing's mouth.

"I'm going to hack you to death, you scumbag."

While thinking this, He Qingqing carefully moved forward, swinging and hacking from time to time.

As for Xu Jie, he had already dodged far away. This woman's heart is truly black; she doesn't play fair. We agreed to use wooden swords, and you're using an upper-grade Heaven-rank weapon? Are you really trying to hack me to death?

With a twitching mouth, watching He Qingqing constantly swing and hack while searching for him, Xu Jie decided in his heart that he must stay far away from this woman in the future.

It was just that back then... was it really worth all this?

"I'll hack you to death."

"Scumbag, I'll hack you to death."

She kept saying this, while the people outside the array were already dumbfounded. Can you even play like this?

For the next quarter of an hour, everyone saw Xu Jie hiding in a corner inside the array, while He Qingqing was hacking away happily by herself.

It was as if every sword strike had landed on Xu Jie's body.

The smile on her face grew increasingly bright.

"Elder Liu, your disciple... is there nothing wrong with her?"

Someone asked the elder leading the Biyue Valley team. Hearing this, Elder Liu gave an awkward smile.

"Hehe, these two had some misunderstandings before; they used to be a couple."

"So that's how it is."

Hearing this, the man looked enlightened, but still cast a strange look at He Qingqing inside the array.

Because no one spoke up to stop it, not even the people from the Dao-One Sect, Juexin didn't pursue the matter of He Qingqing cheating.

After all, Xu Jie was also cheating, and even after switching to an upper-grade Heaven-rank weapon, He Qingqing still hadn't managed to touch even a corner of Xu Jie's clothes.

"Scumbag, do you know how powerful I am now?"

"You abandoned me back then; what happened to the promise of being together for a lifetime?"

"I told you long ago, with me, there is only one outcome: widowhood."

Just as He Qingqing had vented most of the resentment in her heart, Xu Jie walked up helplessly and came up behind her.

"You've had enough fun, go wash up and sleep."

As he said this, he used the hilt of his sword to knock her unconscious, then carried He Qingqing out of the array.
