So what if I'm useless? I'll become a saint!

Chapter 42: Overstepping the Level

Seeing that Wen Lan was about to be defeated, the other disciples of the Wen family looked at each other, but no one dared to step forward.

Wen Cheng was stopped by Chen Yan and could not come to help. Wen Lan knew that no one could save her from the dire situation at this moment.

At this critical moment of life and death, she could only swallow the resentment and humiliation in her heart, lowered her head, and squeezed out a few words with difficulty.

"I lost!"

Upon hearing this, Ling Jiuan slowly put away her sword, her voice indifferent.

"I'm trash, but so are you."

These words were like a sharp knife, piercing deeply into Wen Lan's heart.

Wen Lan felt as if her heart was being cut by a knife. She was so ashamed and angry that she couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood. She was staggering and almost fainted.

She glared at Ling Jiuan and said with gritted teeth.

"Ling Jiuan, one day, I will kill you!"

Ling Jiuan just smiled coldly, her eyes revealing an incomparable arrogance.

"When you were stronger than me, you couldn't kill me. In the future, you won't have the chance to do so. Because I will become stronger and stronger!"

After saying that, she turned and left, leaving behind astonishment and silence.

However, at this moment, the hatred in Wen Lan's heart surged like a tide.

She took out an ice sword and swung it fiercely at Ling Jiuan's back.

She used all her strength in this sword strike, intending to kill with one blow.

Seeing this, Chen Yan shouted in horror.

"Ling Jiuan, be careful!"

Why did you mess with her?

Unfortunately, it was too late.

By the time Ling Jiuan reacted, the ice sword was already within reach.

She could only take the sword forcefully, feeling a chill running through her heart, followed by a mouthful of blood spurting out.

However, Ling Jiuan did not fall.

She gritted her teeth, endured the pain, and threw the sword in her hand at Wen Lan with the greatest force.

The long sword streaked across the sky like a meteor, heading straight for Wen Lan.

"what--"

A scream was heard, and one of Wen Lan's arms was chopped off at shoulder level by a long sword.

Blood spurted out, staining the snow red. Wen Lan screamed in agony and finally passed out.

Ling Jiuan was breathing heavily and looking at Wen Lan who was lying on the ground.

Wen Cheng witnessed the whole process, and his face was filled with shock and anger.

He glared at Ling Jiuan and shouted harshly.

"Ling Jiuan, are you going to make an enemy of the entire Wen family?"

Ling Jiuan just glanced at him coldly, and his eyes seemed to say: I am not afraid of you.

She spoke calmly.

"If you don't have time to question, you might as well go and save people."

Why are these people so hesitant?

Has being pampered damaged your brain?

Chen Yan was too busy to bother with Wen Cheng at this moment. He hurried forward to support Ling Jiuan, his face full of worry.

"How are you doing?"

As he spoke, he took out a precious healing pill from his arms and carefully fed it into Ling Jiuan's mouth.

Ling Jiuan swallowed the pill, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

"I'm fine, and I won."

Chen Yan looked at her stubborn smile and shook his head helplessly.

"Yes, yes, you won, but you really are risking your life!"

On the other side, the disciples of the Wen family surrounded Wen Lan in a hurry and fed her several top-grade healing pills.

Under the effect of the elixir, Wen Lan's wounds healed quickly, but her right arm was lost forever.

When Wen Lan woke up slowly and saw her empty right arm, her eyes were filled with despair and anger.

she yelled hysterically.

"Ling Jiuan!"

She actually lost to this loser like this!

Chen Yan immediately protected Ling Jiuan behind him and looked at the people from the Wen family vigilantly.

"Don't just seek revenge because you can't stand losing! It was Wen Lan who first had the murderous intent, so you can't blame Ling Jiuan for this!"

His tone was firm and he did not back down.

Although Wen Cheng was extremely angry, he also knew that if the matter continued, it would only make the Wen family more embarrassed.

He took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, looked at Ling Jiuan coldly, and tried to regain his face in another way.

"Ling Jiuan, what's the point of you being able to fight?"

Wen Cheng's tone was cold.

"Now that most of the time has passed, you have spent so much time in the barrier, can you still find the spirit pearl? You should know that the judging criteria for this secret realm trial are based on the spirit pearl."

Ling Jiuan looked indifferent, as if he was not affected by Wen Cheng's words.

She smiled softly.

"That won't bother you."

As she spoke, she turned to Wen Lan, with a hint of indifference in her tone.

"Your arms will always remind you not to look down on others easily. There are some prices you cannot afford."

When Wen Lan heard this, her face turned pale instantly.

She stared at Ling Jiuan hatefully and said through gritted teeth.

"Ling Jiuan, I will definitely kill you!"

Ling Jiuan just curled his lips and showed a disdainful smile.

"Okay, I'll wait for you. But before you can kill me, you'd better learn how to respect others."

As if she had thought of something, Jiuan paused slightly. She glanced at Wen Cheng indifferently, with a hint of deep meaning in her eyes.

"I know why you, the Wen family, are targeting me."

Ling Jiuan's voice was calm and firm, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.

"But there are some things that you should not do if you don't want others to know. Even if you kill me, some things will eventually come to light."

When Wen Cheng heard this, his face instantly turned ugly.

He pursed his lips tightly but couldn't utter a word.

He knew in his heart that what Ling Jiuan said was exactly the secret that their Wen family had always wanted to cover up.

Ling Jiuan ignored Wen Cheng anymore. She glanced at Chen Yan beside her with an indifferent tone.

"Let's go!"

The two of them walked farther and farther away, until they were out of the Wen family's sight. Then Chen Yan looked at Ling Jiuan, marveling at him.

"You're really crazy! But I like it!"

He paused, then muttered to himself again.

"But you are only at the peak of physical training, yet you can beat Wen Lan who is at the second level of foundation building. If you ask me, I am more arrogant than you."

Ling Jiuan looked at him helplessly and pointed to a secluded place ahead.

"Help me go over there. I want to practice."

"What? You're already like this, and you still want to practice?"

Chen Yan looked at her in shock, as if he had heard something incredible.

Ling Jiuan just nodded indifferently.

"Now is the most appropriate time. I can use the momentum of Wen Lan's attack just now to strengthen my physical body."

As she spoke, she slowly walked towards the secluded place with the support of Chen Yan.

Sitting cross-legged, Ling Jiuan began to practice.

It must be said that as her spiritual power began to circulate, she felt excruciating pain all over her body.

Beads of sweat the size of beans fell down one after another, leaving Jiuan speechless.

Chen Yan had a lot of thoughts at the moment.

Ling Jiuan is a madman!

A madman who doesn't care about his life!
