Chapter 957 Denying the Promise
"They really won't shed a tear until they see the coffin," Xu Yihai and the others said dismissively.
They were afraid that Lin Ping would take the opportunity to escape, so confronting Mu Xuan was the best option.
"Aren't you planning to run away?" Jiang Yue was filled with inner turmoil.
She both hoped Lin Ping would run away immediately and feared that Mu Xuan would kill him.
"Run? Why would I run? I still want to watch them eat on their live stream!" Lin Ping said, looking puzzled.
"You're really infuriating! Senior Brother clearly won the match, why did you have to make a fool of yourself?" Jiang Yue stomped her feet in frustration.
"Don't worry, I told you, no one can make me kneel." Lin Ping patted Jiang Yue's head and said with a smile.
Cough!
Jiang Yunying coughed lightly a few times, worried that Lin Ping would be attracted to both young and old.
Despite her young age, Jiang Yue is already quite sensible and might actually like Lin Ping.
At this moment, Mu Xuan was in a daze, unable to understand how the tree had been shaken.
He did indeed launch a flying sword, but it landed before even touching the leaves, indicating that he had overestimated his strength.
"Senior Brother, this kid is refusing to admit defeat after losing," Xu Yihai said, emboldened by his master's influence.
"Mu Xuan, tell them who won the competition?" Lin Ping asked seriously.
"Could it really be him?"
Mu Xuan felt a little flustered; he could clearly see that Lin Ping was confident.
He is the senior disciple of the Lianxia Sect, a genius in everyone's eyes. If he loses to a mere brat like Lin Ping, he will never be able to hold his head high in the sect again.
At the very least, Xu Yihai and others will hate him for the rest of their lives; live streaming is no fun at all.
"Of course I won!" Mu Xuan said, composing himself.
He roughly understood the situation, and apart from Lin Ping and Jiang Yunying, everyone believed that he had won.
Given his status and position, what he says is the truth; how could he possibly lie?
"Did you hear that? What else do you have to say? Kneel down right now!"
Xu Yihai kept talking.
"Young Master Chen, you shouldn't have lied to him." Duan Yuqi's impression of Lin Ping had worsened considerably.
"I'll kneel down with him!" Jiang Yue didn't continue to criticize Lin Ping, but instead said something that shocked everyone.
Her personality is completely opposite to Duan Yuqi's.
In other words, Duan Yuqi is more rational; she only appreciates capable people. Jiang Yue, on the other hand, will defend the people she admires and even suffer alongside them.
"Mu Xuan, Mu Xuan, I never thought you would resort to such despicable means." Lin Ping roared to the sky, his face full of mockery and disdain.
He never imagined that the so-called prestigious and righteous sects were all people who bullied the weak and feared the strong, and who distorted the truth.
"Kid, stop making excuses. You can't be a sore loser, can you?" Mu Xuan said coldly, interpreting Lin Ping's expression as one of helplessness.
"Very well, since that's the case, I'll expose your ugly face in public!" Lin Ping's eyes suddenly turned quite vicious.
"You're about to die, let's see what tricks you can pull now," Xu Yihai said disdainfully, already impatient to see Lin Ping kneel down.
"Since you say you knocked these leaves down, then throw your flying sword again and show us what you've got," Lin Ping said coldly.
He saw it clearly just now; Mu Xuan simply didn't have the strength to hit the leaves.
"Don't even mention once, even if it's ten times, the result will be the same," Xu Yihai said arrogantly, determined not to miss this opportunity to curry favor with Mu Xuan.
Mu Xuan was about to curse. He had originally wanted to refuse, thinking Xu Yihai was just an idiot.
"Senior Brother, let him see your strength up close."
“There aren’t many young people with the same strength as our senior brother. Qin Yu of the Sword King Sect is one, and Xiao Yang of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect is another.”
Several people nearby said anxiously, "Senior brother, please let us broaden our horizons!"
Clearly, they wanted Mu Xuan to show off in front of Duan Yuqi, hoping to win the woman's heart.
Mu Xuan was caught in a dilemma by their words; he did indeed want to show off in front of Duan Yuqi.
"I'll demonstrate one more time, so watch closely." Mu Xuan gritted his teeth, determined to use all his skills, as long as he could knock down a single leaf.
"We'll see." Lin Ping said nonchalantly.
According to his observation, Mu Xuan used at least 90% of his strength. The flying sword was a certain distance from the tree, and even if he used all his strength, he might not be able to knock down the leaves.
Mu Xuan took a lunge stance, gripping the short sword tightly with his fingers. He concentrated all his strength in his right arm, using his upper arm to drive his forearm, and then suddenly exerted force with his wrist.
call out!
The short sword flew out with a gust of wind, as if it were about to cleave the entire space.
"Haha, you little brat, are you convinced or not?"
Before the short sword could even knock down the leaves, Xu Yihai had already started laughing.
It must be said that this sword strike was very powerful, flying a hundred meters away in an instant, and its force was only just beginning to decrease.
However, the force decreased rapidly after 100 meters, and the speed of the flying sword slowed down significantly.
Relying on its powerful inertia, the flying sword flew dozens of meters further, almost touching the leaves.
However, it was still just a little short, and the flying sword landed reluctantly beneath the leaves.
"Oh? Is this how you shake the whole tree?" Lin Ping said sarcastically.
Not a single leaf was knocked down; this is quite a gap between the ability to shake the entire tree and the ability to do so.
“This doesn’t count, senior brother, let’s try again!” Xu Yihai was a little flustered, he felt that Mu Xuan must have made a mistake.
Mu Xuan broke out in a cold sweat; that sword strike had almost exhausted all his strength.
Whoohoo!
After catching his breath for a while, Mu Xuan took out a flying sword again and used all his strength once more.
call out!
The flying swords were as dazzling as ever, exciting Xu Yihai and the others.
However, this time the outcome was even worse; the flying sword didn't even land under the leaves.
"No, that's not how it is!"
Mu Xuan unleashed his flying swords like a madman; he couldn't back down in front of Duan Yuqi.
shhhhhh!
One flying sword after another was thrown from Mu Xuan's hand, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't cut down a single leaf.
Whoohoo!
Mu Xuan was so tired that he was panting heavily like a dog.
"It must be because that sword strike consumed too much energy. If the tree wasn't shaken by my senior brother, then who was it?" Xu Yihai argued.
That makes a lot of sense; the first strike is often the most powerful.
Judging from Mu Xuan's second sword strike, he does indeed have the ability to cut down leaves.
Moreover, among everyone present, Mu Xuan is the strongest; there is no one else with such strength besides him.
"Naturally, it was shaken by me!"
Lin Ping made a startling statement.
"Hahaha, are you trying to make me laugh to death and then run away?" Xu Yihai and the others burst into laughter, feeling that chatting with Lin Ping could cure their unhappiness.
"Kid, since you say you shook the tree, then show us," one of the men said in a strange tone.
"It should indeed be displayed, but not in this location," Lin Ping said with a faint smile.
"Hahaha, I get it! He's going to stand under the big tree and bang his head against the trunk. Maybe he can actually shake the tree even if he gets a bloody head." Xu Yihai laughed so hard he almost fell over.
