Chapter 188 - 188: Deciding the Ranking (1)
“Eldest Senior Brother?” The person who was wrapped up like a dumpling and invincible was the eldest senior brother?!
“Yes.” The person wrapped in gauze replied. “You’ve been sleeping for such a long time after fainting. We were all worried sick.”
“Eldest Senior Brother, who beat you up like this?”
“Hehe, I fought He Fang and ended up like this.” Li Zhengxuan said leisurely. “That pretty boy can’t be that strong, can he?” Li Ming was skeptical.
“He’s not much better himself.” Li Zhengxuan chuckled. “In the end, I still managed to slash him twelve times.”
Li Ming was sweating profusely as he listened. Twelve slashes, even if that pretty boy was a big carrot, he would probably become a small toothpick by now. But thinking about it, it was understandable. In the same generation, who could suppress the eldest senior brother until he could not resist?
Although Li Zhengxuan was the eldest senior brother that Li Ming respected like a god, when he saw his eldest senior brother’s current sorry state, the depression caused by his injuries immediately dissipated.
We’re in the same boat…
“Junior Brother Luo, are you feeling better today?” Li Zhengxuan suddenly shouted in Li Ming’s direction.
Li Ming couldn’t help but turn his face to the left.
On his left side was a bed. Luo Ming was lying on the bed. Although he was not in a sorry state like the eldest senior brother, he still looked sickly. His face was pale, and it was obvious that his injuries were not light.
Some brothers were in the same boat… Li Ming was stunned.
When Luo Ming saw Li Ming, his expression turned strange.
Li Ming suddenly remembered that he was the one who injured Luo Ming. That strange feeling had long disappeared, but Li Ming could clearly recall the scene at that time.
If Li Ming could still move his face, his expression would definitely be very ugly now.
Because he was in a special state at that time, he performed very well. If he recovered from his injuries and set up the Sun and Moon Light Formation again, the power of the Moon Chime Sound Crash might not even work once in ten times.
“Senior Brother, are you feeling better?” Luo Ming turned to Li Zhengxuan and asked. His current state of mind was much better than before. Although Li Zhengxuan was once his sword servant, he was now the eldest senior brother of the Divine Will Sect.
The stronger one was, the higher one’s status was. This was the sect’s rule.
And now, no one in the entire Divine Will Sect would doubt Senior Brother Li Zhengxuan’s strength. In front of Li Ming, Luo Ming still had a trace of fighting spirit, but in front of Li Zhengxuan, he was completely convinced.
“Much better.” Li Zhengxuan’s voice didn’t sound like he was seriously injured, he was in a good mood. “I think I’ll be able to recover after a while.”
All three of them were injured and lay on the bed, unable to move.
At first, Li Ming and Luo Ming were still a little distant, but after this period of time, their relationship gradually became harmonious. Later on, even their conversations were very harmonious.
Previously, Li Ming had never had a good impression of Luo Ming. After interacting with him this time, he felt that Luo Ming was not as bad as he thought. On the contrary, his personality was very direct, without the slightest
bit of pretentiousness. He was a very real person.
The two of them had fought twice before, and both of them had suffered heavy losses. It could be said that the current situation was also due to the feelings of the two of them fighting each other.
Both of them admired each other’s ability.
The relationship between Luo Ming and Li Ming was unquestionable. The current Li Ming was already one of the most influential people in East Floating.
In the final battle, the result of a one-on-five fight spread throughout East Floating City. The scene of a single person fighting five people was not seen by anyone, but the terrifying hole in the Great Pine Pavilion was seen by everyone.
Li Ming was very self-aware of his strength. Every time Eldest Senior Brother and Luo Ming talked about this matter with him, he always felt a little guilty. Moreover, from his perspective, Luo Ming’s strength far surpassed his.
“Senior Brother, I saw a woman in front of you the other day. Who was she?” He asked curiously.
“It’s my sword spirit,” Luo Ming immediately became embarrassed and stammered.
“So, you’ve already embarked on the path of spirit transformation?” Li Zhengxuan immediately understood. He looked at Li Ming’s puzzled expression and thought of how this guy didn’t do his job properly. He couldn’t help but explain earnestly, “There are many ways to practice the sword. There are all kinds of methods. It’s all-encompassing. The sword spirit was one of them. It mainly cultivated sword intent and condensed a sword spirit. But…”
“I didn’t expect Senior Brother Luo to be so attentive to people.” He couldn’t help but glance at Luo Ming. Seeing that Li Ming still didn’t understand, he smiled and explained, “People who cultivate sword spirits are mostly meticulous. They can be considered to have transformed their emotions into swords. In the beginning, you need to use your will to guide it and slowly form a sword spirit.”
Only then did Li Ming react. Luo Ming’s face immediately turned red.
“After all, our sect uses swords. Your swordsmanship can’t fall behind.” Li Zhengxuan looked at Li Ming and said.
“Uh.” Li Ming replied vaguely.
He suddenly thought of the jade scroll from Kun Lun which slipped past him. He couldn’t help but ask, “Is there a ranking for this sword-testing conference?
Who entered the top ten?”
“We’re so heavily injured. How can we know what’s going on outside?” Li Zhengxuan shook his head.
Li Ming glanced at Luo Ming, who was also at a loss.
“Next time Lin Xue and the others come, I’ll ask them,” Li Ming said. The three of them were taken care of by Li Fengying and Lin Xue. None of their masters and elders appeared..
