Immortality Through Array Formations Chapter 2142 Chapter 1009: Lu Fairy_2
Previously on Immortality Through Array Formations...
Mo Hua felt a touch puzzled and inquired, "What's the issue?"
Hao Xuan paused briefly before murmuring, "Junior Brother, don't you possess any appreciation for gentleness or feminine allure whatsoever?"
Mo Hua blinked in surprise, "Gentleness? Feminine allure?"
The group went quiet, unsure how to respond.
Hao Xuan prompted, "In today's sword discussion, you didn't deploy the Fireball Technique to secure a victory?"
"Mm." Mo Hua gave a nod.
"You launched the Fireball Technique straight at her face for that victory?"
"Mm." Mo Hua nodded again.
"Were you aware she was a female cultivator?"
Mo Hua thought it over briefly, then affirmed with a nod, "It does appear she was female..."
Hao Xuan's face showed mixed emotions as he asked, "Can you recall her appearance?"
Mo Hua reflected back...
Fair complexion, arched brows, large eyes, pointed chin, and crimson lips...
"I retain a vague memory." Mo Hua admitted honestly, before questioning, "So what?" Hao Xuan replied, "Junior Brother, did you find her attractive?"
Mo Hua remained baffled, "Why does her attractiveness matter? We're at a Sword Discussion Conference; beauty can't be eaten."
Noticing Mo Hua's continued confusion, Hao Xuan let out a resigned sigh and explained:
"Junior Brother, are you aware of this girl's identity?"
Mo Hua shook his head.
Hao Xuan exhaled deeply, "This female cultivator... she's the top beauty from the Purple Mist Sect, called Lu Zhenlong, the direct heir of the renowned Lu Family in Kun State, wealthy and stunning, renowned across the Qianxue State Boundary, pursued by countless admirers, with suitors lining up from Mount of Tao all the way to Mistwater River..."
"She joined today's sword discussion, drawing endless gazes of admiration, everyone eager for just a peek at her charm, and then..."
Then you blasted her face with a Fireball Technique and eliminated her.
Mo Hua froze in astonishment, then in disbelief:
"Why didn't you mention it sooner?"
Hao Xuan offered a bitter grin.
He had intended to warn him promptly, yet no opportunity arose.
The key issue was, he hadn't imagined that Lu Zhenlong, the premier beauty of the Purple Mist Sect, would be utterly unknown to his Junior Brother.
Even if unfamiliar with her name...
Facing such a refined visage, a single glance ought to hint at her extraordinary background, no?
Hao Xuan couldn't resist inquiring, "Junior Brother, didn't her beauty catch your eye?"
Mo Hua wrinkled his forehead, then earnestly reminisced:
"Her appearance... looks fairly pleasing, her facial traits are appealing too, yet her demeanor falls short, she's hot-tempered, acts haughtily, and her divine soul lacks appeal as well; she's merely a beautiful exterior..."
Not comparable to his little senior sister.
Hao Xuan breathed a sigh, "Fine, whatever..."
Junior Brother isn't like others, so his perspective differs.
Still, he advised, "Junior Brother, stay vigilant whenever you venture out in the coming days."
"How come?" Mo Hua wondered.
Hao Xuan explained, "You were focused in the arena, so you missed it. During the day, that Fireball Technique striking her face and ousting Lu Zhenlong caused an uproar outside, as if a volcano burst forth, the clamor was overwhelming, and hordes of male disciples fumed, eager to confront you..."
Mo Hua sensed a throbbing headache and shook his head involuntarily:
"These folks neglect their cultivation, fixated on females all day. It's no surprise they merely spectate from the sidelines in the sword discussion..."
Though Junior Brother's remarks could certainly provoke fury occasionally.
Hao Xuan jolted in alarm, hastily muffling Mo Hua's mouth:
"My precious Junior Brother, never speak such things aloud beyond here..."
Or it would truly stoke the flames higher.
The eruption sparked by your Fireball Technique wouldn't just burst; it would
shoot straight into the heavens.
With Hao Xuan's hand over his mouth, Mo Hua nodded meekly, signaling
he'd keep silent.
Only then did Hao Xuan relax.
Once they completed their meal and headed back to the Disciple's Residence, the
more Mo Hua dwelled on it, the more irritated he grew.
Employing the Fireball Technique for a quick victory had been purely for
efficiency.
But this straightforward move had stirred up massive complications.
If only he'd foreseen it, he could've allowed Xiao Xiao to eliminate that Purple Mist Sect opponent.
Or even let Ouyang Xuan handle it, given his notorious status made him immune to offending others.
Yet reconsidering, as part of the sword discussion under the sect ancestor's safeguard, plus the fifth-grade formation guarding Mount of Tao, nobody could
truly harm him.
With this realization, Mo Hua felt at ease.
He proceeded to methodically gear up for the forthcoming sword discussion rounds.
Beyond the Taixu Gate, the Fireball Technique incident that shamed the Purple Mist Sect's foremost beauty had genuinely drawn Mo Hua a torrent of intense animosity.
Various sects adjusted their approaches to Mo Hua because of this event.
They resolved to fiercely focus on Mo Hua.
In part, since Mo Hua's behavior proved utterly exasperating.
Failing to "eliminate" him at least once would scarcely soothe the rage.
In the entire sword discussion so far, Mo Hua hadn't "perished" a single time, something many found intolerable.
Mo Hua's refusal to "die" defied the natural order.
Additionally, driven by the sword discussion's strategic demands, it had escalated to where they needed to "fiercely focus" on Mo Hua.
Leaving him untouched was impossible.
At first, the Taixu Gate team's most dreaded figure was Linghu Xiao;
Mo Hua barely registered.
However, now Mo Hua's Five Elements Spells surged without pause, proving not just sly and diverse but overwhelmingly dominant, turning into a serious threat
of its own.
Without curbing him, his extensive spell repertoire would easily manipulate opponents.
Moreover, bolstered by Mo Hua's spells, Linghu Xiao's sword qi turned invincible.
Thus, between Linghu Xiao and Mo Hua, one needed to fall first.
Fiercely focusing on Linghu Xiao posed great difficulty.
But zeroing in on Mo Hua seemed far easier.
Indeed, any cultivator who could see recognized the frailty of Mo Hua's body
and the vulnerability of his Dao Discussion Jade.
Eliminating Linghu Xiao could demand a hundred strikes.
Yet dispatching Mo Hua required just a single blade.
Still, pursuing Mo Hua wasn't so straightforward; Linghu Xiao at minimum wouldn't permit it, and the rest of the Taixu Gate disciples were even less inclined to idle.
