Chapter 244: Stepping Stone
Although Mo Yi Ran felt that Yu Qing Qian was scheming against him, but he was still very confident in his own strength.
“Sure. If you beat Leng Bai Ling and me, then not only will I give up the Glazed Herb, but I will also give you three Wisteria Flowers.”
The reason why he let Leng Bai Ling fight Yu Qing Qian first was, one, Mo Yi Ran wanted to test Yu Qing Qian’s strength first. If she couldn’t even beat Leng Bai Ling, then she wouldn’t be qualified to fight him; on the other hand, Leng Bai Ling had constantly been instigating them against her. He wanted to see if Leng Bai Ling was worthy of being taken seriously by him and Shui Yan Ze or not.
Yu Qing Qian nodded: “Sure. Then let’s fight.” Then she turned her attention to Leng Bai Ling.
Leng Bai Ling didn’t expect that Mo Yi Ran would let her fight Yu Qing Qian first, but she instantly understood the reasoning.
Although she was the legitimate daughter of the Leng Clan and the favoured daughter of the Patriarch of the Leng Clan, but her grandfather preferred her elder cousin brother, and appointed him as Young Lord. If she wanted to compete for the power and status of the Leng Clan, then she must recruit others to help.
Shui Yan Ze and Mo Yi Ran were the best candidates to win over. Unfortunately, these two were more slippery than loaches. They were the classic ‘if they didn’t see the hare, they wouldn’t set the falcon’.
“Come, let me see the strength of a jun’zhu from a small kingdom.” Leng Bai Ling stood up and looked at Yu Qing Qian, saying arrogantly.
She must win against Yu Qing Qian today, otherwise Mo Yi Ran and Shui Yan Ze definitely wouldn’t pay attention to her nor help her.
If she could defeat Yu Qing Qian, she might even enter the eyes of the two Elders from the Holy Academy and Imperial Academy. After all, Yu Qing Qian performed very well during the first test, so she must have received their attention now.
Yu Qing Qian raised an eyebrow: “You’re just as annoying as your half-sister.”
Leng Bai Ling said in surprise: “Don’t compare me with that Leng Ling Shuang bitch, and isn’t she your good friend?”
“Good friend? You’re overthinking.” Yu Qing Qian showed disdain, saying only so much.
Since Leng Ling Shuang wanted to use Leng Bai Ling to deal with her, she wouldn’t let the other party succeed so easily. Although Leng Bai Ling was a bit proud and wilful, but she wasn’t a fool.
Sure enough, after hearing Yu Qing Qian’s words, Leng Bai Ling’s expression grew much uglier, and her eyes were filled with evil. No wonder she constantly felt that something wasn’t right. It turned out that she was almost taken advantage of by that Leng Ling Shuang woman.
Leng Bai Ling had now also realised that Leng Ling Shuang and Yu Qing Qian weren’t friends at all. On the contrary, there may have even been some conflicts before, and both parties disliked each other.
Leng Ling Shuang deliberately guided herself before, saying that Yu Qing Qian was her friend, but actually, she wanted to use her hands to deal with Yu Qing Qian.
She would keep this debt in mind and would definitely look for opportunities to repay Leng Ling Shuang when she returned to the Leng Clan.
“Humph, watch out.” Leng Bai Ling summoned her spiritual plant to turn into armour, and a long whip appeared in her hand. She immediately swept towards Yu Qing Qian.
Even if Yu Qing Qian wasn’t Leng Ling Shuang’s friend, it was still impossible to let her go. Firstly, she just didn’t like Yu Qing Qian performing better than her, and secondly, she must use Yu Qing Qian as a stepping stone.
When Yu Qing Qian saw the long whip flying towards her, a hint of mockery rose on her lips. Everyone in the Leng Clan was indeed so annoying.
She tapped her toes, and without even summoning her spiritual plant armour, she took out her own thin whip from her waist and rushed forward.
Leng Bai Ling was only a One-leaf Spirit Warrior. Even if the other party had any secret skills of the Leng Clan, Yu Qing Qian didn’t care for it either.
