Because she had to use her magical energy to fight against the evil cultivator and she planned to tell Baili Zongxue her secrets, she directly released her magical energy to beat the evil cultivator.
Once her strong magical energy met the evil cultivator, the ill-prepared evil cultivator backed several meters away in shock.
To her surprise, this mortal was able to release strong magical energy.
And it was not only the evil cultivator, Baili Zongxue was also stunned. Gu Ning had magical energy?
After fighting against the evil cultivator, Gu Ning showed her level as a cultivator. She was in the Fusion Stage.
Even if Gu Ning was only in the Fusion Stage, the evil cultivator became alert, and stared at her. How come a cultivator in the Fusion Stage could release magical energy above her level?
Although she took Gu Ning lightly earlier and reacted slowly, she didn’t sense any air of a cultivator from Gu Ning. So why did it suddenly appear? Was Gu Ning’s level able to hide her air?
It was impossible. Gu Ning looked about 20 years old, so the evil cultivator refused to believe that she could be at a high level.
Even Baili Zongxue had the same idea.
All of a sudden, Baili Zongxue remembered what Gu Ning just said to her. Whether she would tell other people or betray Gu Ning after she learned her secret?
The secret should be that Gu Ning was also a cultivator!
If Gu Ning was a cultivator, she must have already known that Bailli Zongxue and her older brother were cultivators and their real purpose.
Thinking of that, Baili Zongxue felt embarrassed to face Gu Ning, but it wasn’t the right time to think about that now.
“Who are you?” The evil cultivator asked, coldly looking at Gu Ning, looking creepy.
“I am me!” said Gu Ning.
Gu Ning showed no fear at all before the evil cultivator, so the evil cultivator was even more confused about Gu Ning’s real level.
Anyway, she thought that the magical energy just broke out for a moment and Gu Ning simply pretended to be calm in order to confuse her so that they could leave and survive.
The evil cultivator believed it was the truth, so she became less alert to Gu Ning.
“Humph, I don’t care who you’re. Both of you are going to be my food tonight,” said the evil cultivator in a cold, low voice. After that, she attacked Gu Ning and Baili Zongxue again.
Baili Zongxue couldn’t figure it out either. Why could Gu Ning release strong magical energy when she was at the same level as her? She didn’t believe that Gu Ning’s level was high enough to hide her skills either. Therefore, she was worried that Gu Ning might not be able to defeat the evil cultivator and she did her best to help Gu Ning.
However, they underestimated Gu Ning. Although Gu Ning’s level was low, she had the help of the Blood of the Phoenix, so she wasn’t weak.
The evil cultivator was only at a middle level, so Gu Ning was able to defeat her by herself.
Seeing that, the evil cultivator and Baili Zongxue were both astonished. To their surprise, Gu Ning was actually much stronger than she seemed to be.
The evil cultivator felt a sense of danger and realized that she had offended someone she shouldn’t mess with, but it was too late for her to give up.
Because Gu Ning had to use magical energy and skills to fight against the evil cultivator, they caused loud and scary sounds. There were people in the park, so Gu Ning had to finish the battle as soon as possible. She didn’t hesitate to use her full strength, and the evil cultivator couldn’t escape.
Baili Zongxue backed up in the shock of their fight of magical energy. Because her level couldn’t offset the impact of their magical energy, she could only watch Gu Ning fighting against the evil cultivator with great surprise in her eyes.
How strong could Gu Ning be?
Other people heard the noises, so they walked over to see what was happening.
Because of the long distance and late night, they couldn’t see it clearly. They only felt that some people were fighting.
Someone wanted to walk near, so Gu Ning told Baili Zongxue to stop him immediately. If mortals came too close, they could be hurt by the magical energy. They would also see abnormal things and rumors might start spreading.
It would be difficult to deal with if it became a sensation.
However, Baili Zongxue could only stop people at one side, and couldn’t stop those at the other.
On the other side, several people approached, but they felt great pressure once they entered a certain area. They couldn’t move ahead any longer, so they walked back.
Luckily, they moved back and wouldn’t go forward anymore.
Within ten minutes, Gu Ning controlled the evil cultivator and only a few people saw what had happened.
Once the battle was over, the place became quiet again and the onlookers were chased away by Baili Zongxue.
“Let me go!” The evil cultivator struggled, but she couldn’t escape.
“Let you go? Do you think it’s possible? You just wanted to eat us,” said Gu Ning and mocked.
“Who are you? Why can you release strong magical energy when your level isn’t high? I couldn’t sense any air of a cultivator from your body earlier,” asked the evil cultivator. At this key moment, she was still very curious to know the reason.
Baili Zongxue was also curious. She wouldn’t ask about it. If Gu Ning was willing to tell, she would listen to her explanation.
“Can’t tell you,” said Gu Ning.
“What do you want to do?” asked the evil cultivator. She knew nothing good would happen to her after she failed, but she still hoped that Gu Ning might let her go.
Gu Ning didn’t answer, but turned to Baili Zongxue and said, “Zongxue, you can go now. Please keep what has happened tonight a secret.”
She was going to punish the evil cultivator, but she needed Leng Shaoting’s help because the flood dragon was with him.
“Sure!”
Baili Zongxue understood that Gu Ning wanted to punish the evil cultivator without her presence. Anyway, since Gu Ning was able to defeat the evil cultivator, she could take care of the problem. Baili Zongxue wasn’t worried about Gu Ning’s safety. Therefore, Baili Zongxue agreed to what Gu Ning said.
Since she agreed, she would do what she promised.
Once Baili Zongxue was gone, Gu Ning called Leng Shaoting.
At this moment, Leng Shaoting and Jing Yunyao were still in the Leng family’s house. They just finished a meal and were chatting with the others.
After receiving Gu Ning’s call, Leng Shaoting told Master Leng that he needed to deal with something urgent. Master Leng didn’t force him to stay, so Leng Shaoting left with Jing Yunyao to meet Gu Ning.
…
Baili Zongxue kept on thinking about what had happened with Gu Ning after she walked away. She couldn’t digest the fact that Gu Ning was also a cultivator.
