Chapter 352 Two Guardians (2/2)
When the other girls heard this, they also grinned as they nodded, “But he seems to be quite a troublemaker. It has not even been two months since he joined the inner mountains, and he’s already caused so many commotions.”
Gu Hongyi’s lips curled slightly downwards. “At the very least, he ends up victorious each time. Moreover, he is going to take part in next month’s purple sash selection. This already puts him far ahead of his peers, alright?”
The beautiful girl with long hair merely pursed her lips into a smile and said, “Well, that depends on whether he can be ranked among the top ten. Otherwise, what kind of accomplishment is joining just to gain experience?”
“Furthermore…” Her beautiful eyes rotated in thought as she softly said, “I’ve heard that Lu Xuanyin has asked numerous senior brothers from Sword Cometh Peak peak to help deal with him during the upcoming purple sash selection.”
Gu Hongyi immediately frowned. Soon after, she smiled at that long-haired girl and said, “Senior sister Su Wan, you are the strongest gold sash disciples from our Cangxuan Sect, and will most definitely become the champion of the upcoming purple sash selection. You have to help if you see Zhou Yuan in trouble.”
The beautiful girl with long hair was Su Wan, the hot favorite to clinch the championship for the upcoming purple sash selection, and also Cangxuan Peak’s number one gold sash disciple.
Su Wan smiled playfully as she said, “Aren’t you being too biased? There are many other disciples from our Cangxuan Sect taking part as well. Why didn’t you ask me to assist them?”
Gu Hongyi frowned slightly and said, “They have nothing to do with me.”
With regards to Gu Hongyi’s directness, Su Wan did not know whether to laugh or to be mad. All she could do was to use her fingers to prod her junior’s slim waist as she said, “You ungrateful lass. Do you know how many times these disciples have secretly fought over you ever since you came to Cangxuan Peak?”
Gu Hongyi had great looks and a powerful background. Therefore, she was naturally extremely popular in Cangxuan Peak. In fact, the elders of the peak were beginning to have a headache as more and more disciples fought over her in secret.
“Pointless.” Said Gu Hongyi with a slight frown.
Su Wan shook her head helplessly. She lifted her gaze towards the Genesis Rune boundary and said, “But let’s not talk about the purple sash selection for now. After all, whether he can win today’s battle is still up in the air…:
“A Genesis Rune boundary of this level is not something a gold sash disciple can deal with. When the time comes, he will not only get stuck, but will likely even burden Zhou Xiaoyao…”
From her tone, it was clear that she felt that Zhou Yuan was simply too ignorantly arrogant. In her eyes, he appeared too eager to thrust himself into the limelight with no consideration of his own strength.
A worried look flashed across Gu Hongyi’s eyes. She too knew that the Genesis Rune boundary before them was not simple at all.
However, owing to the faith she had in Zhou Yuan, she still said, “Zhou Yuan is not a reckless individual. Since he chose to enter the boundary, he must have some confidence.”
Su Wan shook her head as she softly said, “According to what I know, there are two individuals guarding the boundary core. One of them is the chief disciple of Spirit Rune Peak, senior brother Jin Zhang…”
“To think that it would be senior brother Jin Zhang…” A solemn expression appeared on Gu Hongyi’s face. Jin Zhang’s reputation in Spirit Rune Peak was inferior only to Ye Ge’s…
“However, Jin Zhang is clearly there to face Yaoyao… to be frank, Zhou Yuan is not deserving of his time.” Su Wan paused for a moment, before she continued, “However, the person Zhou Yuan will face is no pushover either.”
“Who is it?” Gu Hongyi quickly asked.
Su Wan stared at the Genesis Qi mirrors floating in the air, wariness flashing across her eyes as she slowly said, “It is the little genius of Spirit Rune Peak of course, junior sister Xia Yu…”
“She is the top gold sash disciple of Spirit Rune Peak, and is also one of the main contenders for the upcoming purple sash selection. I am afraid it will not be easy for Zhou Yuan to get past her.”
Gu Hongyi’s expression changed slightly, her lips beginning to tightly purse together, as the worry in her eyes intensified.
To break the boundary together with Yaoyao, wouldn’t Zhou Yuan have to face senior sister Xia Yu?
Even though Hongyi had ample faith in Zhou Yuan, she could not help but be apprehensive of his chances against such an opponent.
After all, Xia Yu was going to be an extremely tough opponent to deal with.
