Chapter 752 The Conclusion of the Five Peaks Competition (Subscription Requested)_1

Yun Cong from below saw Xu Sheng grab Mo Li by the throat and couldn't help exclaiming, "Junior Brother Xu, well done!"

The current Xu Sheng appeared as if he could easily crush Mo Li to death with a mere flick of his hand…

Mo Qingyue's beautiful eyes blinked, and she silently breathed a sigh of relief inside, "Phew…"

However, a flood of doubts surfaced in her mind, wondering if this martial technique that forcibly elevated one's cultivation level to the Nascent Soul Stage really had no side effects?

Xu Sheng, who had used this martial technique three times, showed no signs of weakness at all! Presumably, the grandmaster and the other Peak Masters must have also taken notice!

Mu Yun, standing beside her, remarked gravely, "Mo Junior Sister, it seems you've also noticed, hmm! The martial technique Junior Brother Xu used to elevate his cultivation might stir up quite a storm!"

However, if his guess was accurate, Xu Sheng would definitely do something to keep it concealed!

Meanwhile, the most naive

Yun Cong approached with a curious face and asked, "Mu Junior Brother, Mo Junior Sister, what were you just talking about?"

Both were momentarily stunned, then almost in unison, they responded, "It's nothing."

As for their eldest senior brother, he is good in every respect, even though on certain issues, he might seem a bit dull-witted!

…

On the ground below, the female disciples of Xuantian Sect burst into cheers…

One of the female disciples, her eyes gleaming, said excitedly, "Junior Brother Xu simply grabbed Mo Li like pinching a chick, so handsome!!"

Another, blushing, added, "Not only is he strong, but he's also good-looking, truly my ideal other half!"

This openly caused the disciples of Hidden Sword Peak to turn sour, "Hey, hey, hey!! Aren't you being too biased? It was clearly Junior Brother Xu who provoked our Brother Mo Li, and don't forget, he's the one who did that thing to Senior Sister Gu!"

"Tsk! Even if Sister Gu Linruo was assaulted…well, you know, why didn't she fight back with her personality? Doesn't this further prove that our Junior Brother Xu has a good character?"

"Exactly, exactly; if we hear any more slander against Junior Brother Xu,"

Due to Mo Li's miserable state, the female disciples who supported him didn't hesitate to abandon him, and now almost all the female disciples on the back mountain had become the support squad for Xu Sheng!

On the platform, Xu Sheng was holding Mo Li's neck, waiting for his answer…

Mo Li's eyes bulged as he strained to speak, "You… let… me... cough, cough…"

This guy is a devil!

On one hand, he was forcing himself to surrender, while on the other, he was tightly choking his own throat! As if he was afraid he'd say the word 'surrender'!

Xu Sheng scratched his head with his other hand, feigning confusion, "Elder Brother Mo, please speak, your junior brother here doesn't understand what you mean!"

With that, he increased the force in his grip!

He would never show mercy to someone with murderous intentions towards him!

With the immense sensation of suffocation, Mo Li's gaze began to dissipate, his pupils gradually filled with a frightening white as sporadic foam started frothing from his mouth…

The Enforcement Hall Elder, closely observing, eyes narrowed, cried out, "Release your grip! Mo Li is in a bad way!!"

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Xu Sheng had no choice but to let go a bit awkwardly, and Mo Li, foaming at the mouth, crashed to the ground…

The hurriedly arriving Enforcement Hall Elder quickly used spiritual power to sense Mo Li's physical condition and after a few seconds, let out a heavy sigh…

Immediately after, his gaze turned towards Xu Sheng and he reprimanded, "Xu Sheng! You were too heavy-handed!"

Xu Sheng wore an apologetic look, "I'm sorry, Elder, I thought… pfft!"

No sooner had he spoken than he felt a rush of spiritual power into his acupoints, his blood and qi began to churn violently…

Then, feeling a sweetness in his throat, he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood with a "pfft!" and his consciousness began to blur as he fell powerlessly toward the ground…

The Enforcement Hall Elder beside him rushed over and shook Xu Sheng's body, calling out, "Xu Sheng! Xu Sheng!"

However, no one responded to him…

...

After an unknown amount of time, Xu Sheng's eyes quietly opened…

He covered his mouth and coughed urgently a few times, "Cough cough..."

His eyes glanced around at the familiar surroundings, needless to say, he was at Tianlan Peak, in his own room!

Just then, Mo Qingyue came in with a cup of water…

Seeing that Xu Sheng had awakened, she asked with concern, "Junior Brother Xu, are you alright?"

Xu Sheng shook his head and said, "I'm fine, Elder Sister."

Mo Qingyue laughed softly, "Then have a drink of water first."

After Xu Sheng took a sip, the dry cough in his throat finally eased a lot…

He handed the cup back and said, "Thank you, Elder Sister!"

Soon after, Mu Yun and Yun Cong also came in from outside, both asking, "Junior Brother Xu, how do you feel?"

"Are you alright, Junior Brother Xu? You suddenly fainted on the arena!"

Xu Sheng's eyes turned to the two of them and he asked, "I'm fine, but what about the results of the Five Peaks Competition?"

Yun Cong and Mu Yun looked at each other and both fell silent…

Xu Sheng's brow furrowed, "Did I lose?"

That shouldn't be right, this wasn't a duel that I should have lost!

While he was still puzzled, the unpleasant expressions on Yun Cong's and the others' faces vanished, and Mu Yun laughed loudly, "How could that be! We were just kidding with you, Junior Brother Xu! You took first place in the Five Peaks Competition!"

Mu Yun followed up and said, bursting with joy, "Exactly, exactly, the expression on Cangjian Peak's Peak Master was priceless! Not only did his Golden Core Stage disciple lose to you, Junior Brother Xu, but he also lost an Earth-grade weapon!"

Mo Qingyue blinked her beautiful eyes at Xu Sheng and said tenderly, "Junior Brother Xu, I must admit I'm a bit envious of you. Why don't we just pair up, and become partners?"

Xu Sheng's mouth quirked up and he said softly, "Elder Sister Mo, are you serious?"

Mo Qingyue steeled her heart and said hesitantly, "Of… of course I'm serious!"

Before the words were even out, Xu Sheng reached out and pulled Mo Qingyue into his embrace, his dark pupils staring into her eyes…

Startled, Mo Qingyue seemed a bit incoherent as she looked at the handsome face before her, and her cheeks gradually grew hot, "Junior Brother Xu… you… you!"

Yun Cong and Mu Yun, who had already seen through the joke, smacked their lips and muttered softly, "Sss... Junior Brother Xu is quite the expert at flirting!"

"Indeed! He's got Mo Junior Sister about to fall for him just like that, tsk tsk!"

Xu Sheng's face slowly approached Mo Qingyue, intending to kiss her thin lips…

As they drew closer and closer, Mo Qingyue grew even more flustered, "What… what should I do? Is Junior Brother Xu serious?"

Should I accept his advance? Or not?

Junior Brother Xu is flawless, both in looks and strength!

So why not just accept him?
