Chapter 564: Chapter 374: Resolving Inner Conflicts (6k)_2
The group of four, master and disciples, didn’t continue to watch the sect’s grand competition, instead, they returned to Chen Mobai’s courtyard in Divine Wood City.
“Master, my next opponent is my brother,” Luo Yixuan randomly stated on the way back.
“Luo Yixiu?”
Chen Mobai had almost forgotten about him. After the great battle at Mountain Shaker Peak, Luo Shupin was proven to have not betrayed the sect, so Luo Yixiu was allowed to continue his cultivation within the Divine Wood Sect.
“Yes, our family will support him with at least one Foundation Building Pill, they seem to be betting on his successful Foundation Establishment.”
According to the customs in the Tianhe Realm, once Luo Yixuan became a disciple of Xiao Nanshan’s lineage, it was as if she had gotten married. Although she still had some emotional bonds with the Luo family, they were far less than those with Luo Yixiu, the legitimate direct male descendant of the family.
Therefore, the Luo family still invested resources in Luo Yixiu, hoping that after his successful Foundation Establishment, he could replace Luo Shupin and provide support for the family within the sect.
“In this competition, you don’t need to hold back like before. Give it your all and let everyone see how remarkable you are.”
Chen Mobai understood Luo Yixuan’s inner turmoil and told her not to worry, assuring her that he had her back.
“Yes, Master!”
As expected, this made Luo Yixuan more cheerful.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
For the first half of her life, she had suppressed her own cultivation progress and compromised in everything for the sake of Luo Yixiu. The frustration of needing to pretend to be less competent than her brother had caused her character to become slightly distorted.
Fortunately, she met Chen Mobai, a good teacher, and under the simple and unpretentious influence of Xiao Nanshan’s gate, she gradually turned into a normal female cultivator.
However, Luo Yixiu had always been a thorn in her side.
Now, she could take advantage of this sect grand competition to finally resolve it.
That night, Chen Mobai invited Yuan Chiye and Yan Jinye to reminisce about the past.
E Yun and Yue Zutao were still outside the sect, one guarding Yun Country and the other Lei Nation, neither had plans to return this year.
Another familiar new Foundation Establishment owner, Yu Lian, had also been sent on a secret mission by the sect. Chen Mobai had a vague idea of his task but didn’t interfere.
In addition to the three Foundation Establishment owners, Chen Mobai also invited Qi Rui, Xi Jinghuo, and other friends he had made during his Qi Cultivation period. Everyone respected him greatly and all attended.
Zhuo Ming brought out five jars of new wine. Although they were all Rank-1, the tastes were different, and everyone was satisfied.
The next day, Chen Mobai led his two disciples to a teahouse to watch the match between Luo Yixuan and Luo Yixiu.
At first, Luo Yixiu was full of confidence, because he had never lost to Luo Yixuan since childhood.
Even before the match, he was trying to persuade Luo Yixuan to admit defeat, so he wouldn’t accidentally hurt her.
In response to this, Luo Yixuan only had one thing to say.
“Brother, actually, I’ve been holding back all this time.”
However, this truthful statement angered Luo Yixiu. He attacked first, wanting to prove that he was better than his sister with his strength.
But reality was cruel. Without using the Divine Wood Sword, Luo Yixuan used the Cold Ice Technique guided by Chen Mobai and broke through the three spells that made Luo Yixiu proud.
“How is this possible…”
On the martial arts platform, after being defeated by Luo Yixuan, Luo Yixiu was left in disbelief. He gave a dazed look and mumbled to himself, unable to believe that his position as the first in the family for over two decades was actually due to his sister’s leniency.
“Brother, from now on, I won’t let you win again.”
After saying these words, Luo Yixuan simply turned around and left the martial arts platform.
At that moment, Luo Yixuan felt that the dark cloud that had oppressed her since childhood finally dissipated.
She had never felt so relaxed and at ease. It was as if her Divine Sense and body had been freed, floating leisurely in the clear river, enjoying the freedom of flowing to the endless sea.
With an unprecedentedly relaxed look, Luo Yixuan arrived at the teahouse.
Upon reaching the second floor, Luo Yixuan saw her smiling Master sitting by the window.
He was her guiding light, the sun that dispelled all her darkness!
“Master, I won.”
Luo Yixuan couldn’t believe her own voice, it was full of a lightness and coquettishness that she had never dared to show in her previous life. It seemed as if she was showing off her achievements to the most important person and eagerly sought his approval.
The feeling was akin to when she, as a child, proudly told her mother that she had surpassed her brother in terms of cultivation. However, at that time it resulted in a slap from her mother.
Her mother had personally hit her, reducing her cultivation level.
She even coldly warned her to never surpass Luo Yixiu.
Even though Luo Yixuan knew her mother did it for her own good, she could never forget that slap. It didn’t hurt physically, but it hurt her heart deeply.
“You did very well, I am very pleased.”
Chen Mobai’s simple words made Luo Yixuan feel a completely different life.
Here, she was no longer suppressed. She could fully unleash her talent without fear of being targeted for her beauty and exceptional talent, like her mother, as a tool for reproduction and purchased.
“Master, let me pour you some tea.”
Luo Yixuan happily ran over, picked up the teapot on the table, and filled Chen Mobai’s cup. Of course, she also didn’t forget Liu Wenbo and Zhuo Ming.
What do you think?
