Chapter 12: Very Good Luck?

Ling Xiao noticed Ling Fei’s expression and couldn’t help shaking his head.

These clan disciples, each had their eyes set higher than the rest. In addition, they were also very narrow-minded. He had wanted to casually step on Ling Xiao’s shoulder, but when he had been given a leg in his time of need, he had turned angry. 

Ling Xiao was too lazy to bicker with him. He was impatient to see the doctor for his grandfather’s injury.

However, who would have thought that upon taking a step, a white shadow suddenly flashed over and removed the medical kit from that doctor’s hand.

It now unexpectedly hung on a tree branch by Ling Fei over ten meters above the ground. 

Dear Readers. Scrapers have recently been devasting our views. At this rate, the site (creativenovels .com) might...let's just hope it doesn't come to that. If you are reading on a scraper site. Please don't.

“What do you want?” Ling Xiao asked with a frown.

“Nothing, I just want to test your movement technique.”

Ling Fei indifferently replied as if he had done something trivial.

“Who is that person?”

Several disciples couldn’t help but look towards Ling Xiao in confusion.

Naturally, there were also some who could recognize Ling Xiao.

“Ha ha! He used to be a beggar. He entered our Ling Clan through the family exam one year ago. In this year, his strength remained constant at Rank One Martial Vein, but he offended Ling Chong and Ling Feng, these two disciples of Elite Hall. In addition, even Ling Yu, who meticulously cared about him at the very beginning, has now become senior apprentice brother Ling Feng’s woman…”

“Eh, I have also heard about this fellow! Senior apprentice brother Ling Chong gave him face, but he actually couldn’t tell good from bad and used some despicable means to launch a surprise attack. He is truly shameless!”

“However, he seems to have advanced to Rank Two Martial Vein. A few days ago, when he went to the Library Pavilion, he was punished for attempting to steal a book.”

“This kind of person truly doesn’t deserve to be a disciple of our Ling Clan! No wonder senior apprentice brother Ling Fei wants to mock him.”

“Today, he will not be able to take this medical kit down. He can’t know any movement techniques.”

Those clan disciples who had flattered Ling Fei like lackeys now tauntingly evaluated Ling Xiao as if they were a notch above him.

“I just wanted to play with him, but just now, as you all saw, he tried to attack me!”

Ling Fei shamelessly inverted black and white, trying to give a reasonable explanation for his actions.

Ling Xiao frowned.

Sure enough, it was like this. Without strength, he would only be bullied.

Ling Chong, Ling Feng, Ling Fei and Ling Yu! If he were still a Rank One Martial Vein, even more people might have bullied him.

Forget it! In any case, he had wanted to test the might of <Rush Steps> today.

He didn’t pay any attention to Ling Fei or the others. He simply eyed the medical kit hanging ten meters high. Suddenly, he circulated his true qi and used <Rush Steps>!

Bang——

Aiyo, dang!

To Ling Xiao’s surprise, he used too much force, so his head unexpectedly collided with the tree branch.

Sure enough, when using this vigorous movement technique for the first time, he was unable to completely control it. Next time, he would reduce his power output.

“Hahaha… truly an idiot!”

Ling Fei and the others roared in laughter. Some people even helplessly squatted on the ground and laughed until tears flowed.

Ling Xiao, however, ignored them.

There would always be a first time for everything. Just now, he had used too much force. This time, he would control it better.

He circulated his Landscape Martial Soul and poured just the right amount of true qi into his legs before suddenly using <Rush Steps>.

Ling Xiao looked like a fierce tiger leaping down from the mountains, pouncing towards the tree trunk.

This time, he successfully climbed the tree, but he still ended a distance away from the medical kit.

However, the laughter suddenly ceased. All were dumbstruck.

Ling Fei was also greatly alarmed.

He could tell that Ling Xiao’s movement technique wasn’t inferior to his own.

Compared to such a movement technique, even some disciples of the Elite Hall might be inferior.

“It’s nothing! Senior apprentice brother Ling Fei, even this kid himself doesn’t know how he did this!”

“Yeah, look at his expression! He is still confused. It’s surely a case of ‘a blind cat bumping into a dead mouse.’ Pure luck!”

“That’s right! Besides, even if he received a movement technique from the Library Pavilion, how could he master it in just a few days?”

“Just a moment ago, it was only a relatively high jump due to circulating his true qi.”

In spite of their ugly complexions, these people could always find ways to comfort themselves.

However, in the next moment, their comforting words dissipated like the false lies they were.

They only heard a muffled sound. Imbuing both a fierce tiger and a nimble leopard, Ling Xiao stepped on the tree trunk and gracefully floated in the air. Then, he grabbed the medical kit and floated down, stably landing on the ground.

At this moment, those people lost any way to comfort themselves.

Such a movement technique, even Ling Fei could not compare favorably with it.

“An Intermediate movement technique really is truly powerful! I wonder how that <Soaring Cloud Steps> is compared with <Rush Steps>? I will try to cultivate <Soaring Cloud Steps> right after returning.”

Ling Xiao was endlessly happy in his heart.

Not only had he hit back at those who had slandered him, but even more importantly, he was now all the more confident with regards to his future.

“Is this fellow a genius?”

“Yeah, in only a few days, he reached such a high level from nothing… This is too absurd!”

After coming back to their senses, many were unconvinced. There were some here who had practiced movement techniques for a year or two but were still inferior to Ling Xiao.

Naturally, they didn’t feel comfortable in their hearts.

“Let’s go, doctor! My grandfather is waiting for you.”

That doctor also looked somewhat surprised. Only after hearing Ling Xiao’s reminder did he return to his senses.

“Noble son, your movement technique has truly opened this old man’s eyes.”

The doctor was only an ordinary person, so from this moment, he already regarded Ling Xiao as a noble son of the Ling Clan. Otherwise, how could he have obtained such a great skill?

“Noble son? You idiot, this fellow is just a little beggar! It’s only that his luck is good! Do it again if you have the ability!”

“Yea! Come back and do it again to confirm that it wasn’t all a fluke!”

Those disciples loudly shouted. Obviously, they were not convinced that a little beggar had ridden their heads and surpassed them.

Ling Xiao wanted to leave, but these people blocked his path.

Honestly speaking, he didn’t have the confidence to win against so many people.

After all, including Ling Fei, there were quite a few Rank Three Martial Vein martial artists here.

Since these people wanted to lose more face, he would give them another show of his movement technique!

In any case, <Rush Steps> was just the foundation. What he truly wanted to practice was <Soaring Cloud Steps>. Even if it were exposed, it didn’t matter.

“Since you all wanted to see it, then I will let you all see it once more.”

Ling Xiao pointed at a fruit on the big tree and said, “That fruit, I will take it! After that, don’t pester me again.”

“You braggart, that fruit is almost 20 meters above the ground! Even senior apprentice brother Ling Fei might not be able to take it!”

“Yes, if you can truly take that fruit, I will crawl around that tree twice and bark!”

Ling Fei also indifferently spoke, “Even for Rank Three Martial Vein martial artists, the limit for upward flight using a movement technique is roughly 15 meters This Ling Xiao truly dares to boast!.”

What he said was common sense. The clan disciples also agreed, waiting for Ling Xiao to make a joke of himself.

“Is that so?”

Ling Xiao chuckled. That Ling Fei requited kindness with enmity, and now, someone wanted to bark. Now, he had a chance to kill these fellows’ prestige and also make them fear to casually bully him hereafter.

While inwardly appreciating his fortune, he condensed his true qi in his martial veins before passing it to his legs via his meridians.

“Violent Qi Formula!”

“Rush Steps!”

Ling Xiao was well aware that Ling Fei’s words were correct. However, if he used Violent Qi Formula, his Rush Steps could certainly achieve a range exceeding 20 meters.

Hu——!

With a burst of wind, Ling Xiao stepped on the air and instantly flew nearly 20 meters high.

Yet, when he was about to successfully pluck the fruit, a pebble suddenly shot towards him from the side.
