Chapter 343: She Took Flight
"Ha—" Xuan Ying exclaimed, "Shen Qinglan is flying!"Duan Yunfei clenched his fists, but his eyes were filled with joy.
Le Zhao clicked his tongue lightly, "This is the first time I’ve seen someone learn Qinggong during a fight."
Shen Qinglan also looked surprised, but soon her shock turned into delight.
She had just gathered enough Inner Strength to fend off Second Elder’s attack, not expecting that as her toes touched the ground, her body floated effortlessly into the air.
"Girl, be careful!"
Shen Qinglan was still immersed in the joy of flying when Chu Wuqu’s voice reminded her from beside.
She snapped back to reality, quickly activating Qinggong to fly away from her spot.
Only to hear a "bang," the section of the roof where she stood had been shattered.
Xuan Ming exclaimed softly, "Second Elder is serious now!"
Duan Yunfei’s heart tightened, his eyes focused intently on Second Elder, ready to stop his dangerous moves at any moment.
Shen Qinglan swung her Jingyu Sword, the Sword Qi meeting Second Elder’s Palm Wind, and with a "boom," the power scattered, causing a slight tremor around.
Duan Nian, Xuan Hua, and the remaining two elders couldn’t help but gasp in shock.
Xuan Hua murmured, "Such strong Inner Strength!"
Second Elder was also taken aback, but as he hesitated for a moment, a shining sword was already resting on his neck.
His expression instantly froze, looking very unpleasant.
Shen Qinglan withdrew her Jingyu Sword, smiling, "Second Elder, you cannot have a moment’s hesitation on the battlefield; hesitating means you’ve lost!"
Second Elder chuckled, "I, the old man, accept my loss willingly!"
Shen Qinglan offered respect, "Second Elder, you let me win!"
"Hahaha—"
Chu Wuqu sheathed his sword, laughingly praising, "Little girl, well done, in such a short time, you managed to learn my own created technique. Well done, well done!"
The Grand Elder was momentarily stunned but soon returned to calm.
"The Martial Arts are indeed good," his voice was stiff and cold, "but the personality is a bit arrogant."
Shen Qinglan paused, then felt amused helplessly.
Who exactly is the one with the arrogant personality?
Duan Yunfei stepped forward, gazing at her and smiling, "Congratulations!"
"Thank you!" Shen Qinglan replied with a smile.
Xuan Ying also ran up, happily saying, "Congratulations, Miss Shen!"
Le Zhao raised an eyebrow, "You people only reveal your potential when faced with danger!"
"So, Qinglan didn’t know Qinggong before?" Luo Jing asked curiously.
"Not at all!" Duan Yunfei laughed, "She learned it by pure accident herself."
"Truly impressive!" Luo Jing quickly grabbed her, asking, "Qinglan, are you hurt?"
"Not at all!" Shen Qinglan smiled, "It’s all thanks to Second Elder’s restraint."
"Miss, no need to be modest!" Second Elder said, "This old man gave it his all!"
"Old Two, did you truly give it your all?" The Grand Elder was skeptical.
He had been fully focused on dealing with Chu Wuqu, with no time to spare for this side.
Second Elder sighed lightly, nodding, "Indeed, I gave it my all!"
The Grand Elder suspiciously examined Shen Qinglan, growing more puzzled as he looked.
"You don’t have Inner Strength?"
With his question, apart from the few who knew the reason, everyone else involuntarily turned their gaze to Shen Qinglan.
"Hiss—" Second Elder murmured, "That’s not right, I could clearly feel it just now!"
Shen Qinglan smiled without saying a word.
"Miss, could you explain what’s going on here?" Second Elder was utterly puzzled.
"Making you all hide in the valley for days, isn’t this embarrassing now?"
Chu Wuqu said gloatingly.
