Chapter 1220: Chapter 1124: Surprise Attack (Part 2)

"But still, no matter how you put it, this was way too reckless!" he thought to himself.

Because when it comes to breaking through, you definitely have to be fully prepared in advance.

You even need an elder standing guard to prevent all sorts of unexpected accidents.

For example, failure—this possibility is actually very high.

With an elder there, they can treat you in time if you fail, so the one attempting the breakthrough won’t be too badly injured, and might even have another chance next time.

Or say, if someone interferes, that will absolutely affect the breakthrough.

This time the one who came was Lin Xi; if it had been someone else, they might’ve seen Princess Consort Le like this and gone up to ask what was going on.

That would definitely have caused serious consequences.

If it had been an enemy, she’d basically have become a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

The next moment, three Spirit Stones appeared in his hand, and he tossed them around Princess Consort Le.

The two that had been on the ground earlier already had almost no Spiritual Qi left in them.

With the Spiritual Qi replenished, Princess Consort Le’s complexion noticeably improved compared to before.

Though it was only a little better; the overall situation hadn’t changed much.

Lin Xi seemed to have expected this outcome, so he didn’t stop.

At that moment, a small porcelain bottle appeared in his hand.

He poured out a jade-green pill from it and shouted, "Open your mouth!"

Princess Consort Le, who was in the middle of a breakthrough, had long since sensed Lin Xi and the other two arriving.

By reflex, she opened her mouth.

After all, that sudden surge of Spiritual Qi just now had to have been Lin Xi’s doing.

Otherwise, there was no one else.

"Mm?"

Something smooth and round instantly appeared in her mouth and melted the moment it entered; a warm current flowed into her body.

She immediately knew what it was.

She had taken one a few days ago.

This was a pill with an absolutely astonishing recovery effect.

She still had one left.

She just hadn’t brought it with her.

Otherwise, the moment she got hurt just now she would have taken it already.

Too careless!

Luckily, Lin Xi came.

Now, her Spiritual Qi was massively replenished, and the injuries on her body were rapidly improving.

Her complexion was also recovering at an even faster rate.

Everything was moving in a good direction.

If nothing unexpected happened, she was certain she had over a ninety-percent chance of breaking through to the Innate realm.

Innate!

There weren’t many of those even in the sect.

And more importantly, it wasn’t just that her strength would increase many times over.

The key point was that she wouldn’t have to worry about her own safety anymore.

For example, if Letian came again, no matter how many schemes and tricks he had, they would hardly pose any threat to her.

Because once she reached the Innate realm, she could crush Letian with one hand.

From then on, everything went very smoothly.

At this pace, she wouldn’t even need half an hour to break through.

Just then, the sound of footsteps came from outside, along with a creepy, sinister laugh.

Lin Xi saw that Princess Consort Le, whose condition had already improved by more than half, now had an extremely ugly expression on her face.

Gu Xiaoxian and Luo Susu also looked toward the outside.

They immediately saw a woman in an ancient-style white robe walking over with a slight smile on her face, except that smile looked a bit eerie.

Also, this person’s complexion was so pale it was scary.

At a glance, they did not look like any sort of good person.

"Hm?" Luo Susu suddenly let out a soft exclamation.

"An Adam’s apple?"

"This is a man?"

When Gu Xiaoxian heard what Luo Susu said, she immediately noticed it too.

It really was a man.

Dressing like this, he was basically a crossdressing big shot?

A crossdressing big shot suddenly showing up at Teacher Princess Consort Le’s house—what was he planning to do?

Plus, they hadn’t heard any knocking or anything from this person.

And that weird laugh just now—they’d heard that too.

Judging from the current situation, this person was definitely up to no good.

After what had just happened, the two girls also knew that Teacher Princess Consort Le was at a critical moment and absolutely could not be disturbed.

Otherwise, her efforts would be wasted and she’d still end up badly injured.

The two of them each took a step toward the door, ready to stop this person from coming any closer.

They also wanted to test this person a bit, see how powerful their Fist Skill really was.

Because the two of them—especially Luo Susu—had sparred with the bodyguards at home and discovered she completely dominated.

Of course, that had been with the weakest bodyguard.

And they probably didn’t dare go all out either.

Even so, Luo Susu’s heart had been greatly satisfied.

Right now, she was getting a bit swollen with confidence.

Just a sissy, that’s all.

She felt she could pin him to the ground with one hand and beat him up.

No, no, better to just send him flying with one kick.

She was a fairy, after all!

Thinking this, she shook her head at Gu Xiaoxian, who had stepped out with her. "Xiaoxian, you stay here and watch. I can handle this guy by myself."

Only, before she could take a third step, she heard Lin Xi’s voice. "You two, come back."

"You’re not his match."

Luo Susu froze and glanced back, noticing that Lin Xi didn’t look like he was joking at all.

His expression was pretty grim. After hesitating for a moment, she still returned to Lin Xi’s side, and Gu Xiaoxian did the same.

Both girls were smart.

At a time like this, there was no way Lin Xi would lie to them.

Besides, they also knew that if there was a suitable opportunity, Lin Xi would actually prefer that they gain some real combat experience.

"Then why aren’t you making a move?"

"If you don’t, he’s going to come in!"

"If he affects Teacher Princess Consort Le’s breakthrough, it’ll be too late for regrets."

In Luo Susu’s view, they might not be able to handle him, but Lin Xi definitely could.

Lin Xi didn’t speak; from beginning to end, he hadn’t even looked back once.

Letian had the strength of a Peak Soldier King, and he had heard every single word Luo Susu had just said loud and clear.

The next moment, they heard him say to Luo Susu in that same sinister tone, "Little girl!"

"Don’t meddle when you shouldn’t, or the consequences won’t be something you can bear."

After saying that, he ignored whatever reaction Luo Susu might have and gave Lin Xi another look, his expression a bit hesitant. "Little brother, if you’re willing to leave now, I can give you some compensation."

The meaning was obvious: he wanted him to stay out of this.

Princess Consort Le, whose breakthrough was speeding up, looked even uglier.

It wasn’t just that Letian was threatening Lin Xi; more importantly, she had sensed that the injuries on Letian’s body were gone!

How was that possible?

He didn’t have the pills Lin Xi had given her—how could he recover so fast?

Unfortunately, she didn’t have the energy to open her eyes right now, or she would definitely take a good look.

Maybe then she’d discover the reason.

"What do I do, what do I do?" Right now, she was extremely anxious inside.

Because if Lin Xi and the others left, then not only would she fail to break through today, she would definitely end up as Letian’s prisoner.

If Lin Xi stayed, could he actually go up against Letian?

Letian was a Peak Soldier King!

No matter how strong Lin Xi was, at his age he couldn’t have already reached Peak Soldier King, right?

That’s what she had always thought!

And even if he had, if the two of them fought in the room, the shockwaves would still affect her.

Then at that point, her breakthrough would definitely be greatly impacted.

After saying his piece to Lin Xi, Letian didn’t bother with him anymore. He walked straight toward Princess Consort Le, who was sitting cross-legged on the floor, planning to immediately sabotage her breakthrough.

Otherwise, he’d be the one in trouble.

However, just as he was about to pass the young man beside him, he heard a voice from behind.

Yeah, it was that same young man’s voice. "If you dare take one more step forward, I’ll show you what despair really is."
