Chapter 528: The Celestial Gate (2)

/*unedited*/

The group of people belonging to a noble family from the nearest town is currently looking at the young man who has just been accepted by the Lightning Blade Sect elder and was led inside the city. The young man was their young master and one of the most promising youths in the Hung family.

And now the next representative of their family to try the Celestial gate is another young man who is also part of their family.

However, everyone showed a dejected expression as the young man could not even move the gate. This gained the jeers of the crowd and even the cold gaze from the family that young man belongs to. He could not do anything and just retreat with a lowered head.

Then another one also attempted and it still ended up in a failure.

"Sigh… I guess the younger generation of my family only has one genius who can enter a sect." an old man on the side said with a gloomy expression on his face.

He is the family elder who escorted the family caravan in going to this place and tests the strengths of the youths and also secures their future. However, as it ended up in a failure, everyone was dejected.

Suddenly, a young woman took a step forward.

This time after the young men of the family it's the young women's turn to test their strength. The first one to step forward is a cold-looking young beauty. When she reveals her presence it immediately attracted the attention of the people watching this scene.

"What a cold beauty and her aura look strong."

"I think she is the young mistress of the famous Hung family from Laoxi Town."

"Ow… I heard of her before. She is very strong when it comes to using a sword."

"Xime Hung…. That's Xime Hung! She is a very talented sword cultivator. Why is she here? I thought she has already been accepted Swan Sword Sect?"

"Yeah, that rumor is already widespread…"

The people clamored as they seem to recognize the young woman.

Xime Hung didn't mind the voices in her surroundings and just showed a contemplative look at the huge gate in front of her. Then she looks to the side and flashed a mocking gaze at the young woman who is going to be next after her.

It was just a casual and quick glance, but the young woman behind lowered her head while biting her lower lip. Between the two of them, both know that there is a conflict that is happening. However, the people in the surroundings didn't notice this and just watches at the proceeding.

Xime Hung lifted her right hand and concentrated all of her Qi in her hand. Then with a quick jab of her small and dainty fist, the gate sounded out loud.

Clang!

Everyone who is near the gate immediately covered their ears, while Xime Hung immediately activated her Qi field. She already knew what would happen when someone struck the gate. And this is its protective ability. It would magnify the attack and send it back twice.

But Xime Hung wanted to use that rebounded energy. She immediately waves her hand in front of her and gestured in a circular motion. Then from her chest, a faint glow appear and with a push, diverted the energy back towards her palms as she uses it to push the gate while her palms are touching its cold surface.

Creak!

The sound of the door opening can be heard as she continuously pushes forward. She was able to make the gate open by half and she stood unmoving on the spot while waiting. She has a confident look on her face at this time and was satisfied with the result.

The old man on the side smiles and heaves a huge sigh of relief.

"That was nice…"

"It was a good trick."

"Hmm… Just so-so."

Three voices were heard beside the young women who were lining up.

No one noticed that three people suddenly appear near the huge gate on the left side of the women lining up to test their strength in opening the gate.

These people were Shin Jiao and the two people who followed him. Behind the three are also some young people.

"Who are you?" the young woman who was glared at by the young mistress of the Hung family asked with a wary look on her face.

"We're just passing through. We wanted to go this way, as that other gate's line is too long." Gu Guxhing said with a smile.

Seeing the burly figure of the man who replied, the young woman just nodded her head and took a step to the right to get a distance from the new group.

"After you…" Shin Jiao said gesturing his hand for the woman to go first.

At this moment, a figure has appeared and this time it is a beautiful woman in a white gown.

"That's an elder from the Swan Sword Sect… It's true… so this is just a show then."

"Yeah, I'm guessing that this is just to prove to everyone that she was accepted because of her strength and not through connection."

"I wish I can enter that sect too… I heard they only accept women in there…"

"Why would they accept a perverted guy like you? Haha…"

The crowd became rowdy as they watch the young woman being led inside the gate as it closes behind them.

After that, the nervous young woman who is next to test her strength looks at Shin Jiao with a hesitant smile on her face.

When Shin Jiao looks at her, his contact lens immediately showed that something is wrong with her. Although it is not his business to stop the woman, however, he knew that if he didn't stop her, there would be a dire consequence.

Hence soft-hearted and kind as he is, he wanted to stop her. But it was already too late. Hence, Shin Jiao just observe and decided to act if necessary.

The young woman slowly steps forward and began circulating the Qi in her body. Then she spreads her arms towards the gate and with her Qi covered hands, exerted all of her effort to push the gate.

Creak!!!

The gate began to move which made the people in the area showed interest. This is because she was the third person to be able to move the gate. But she didn't use any skill and just pushes the gate.

"What? Is there another genius from the Hung family?"

"Wow, that family is really filled with hidden dragons…"

"That's what you would expect from a noble family."

The people clamored in surprise upon seeing the gate slowly opening.

However, this time the elder in the Hung family squinted his eyes. He did not expect that the young woman is able to do such a thing.

"I thought, the young miss already made her move? If that young lass is able to enter that gate, it would be troublesome for the family. I must stop her." He muttered as he took out a small silver needle.

Then with a flick of his hand, it flew towards the back of the neck of that young woman.

However, before the needle could hit her neck, it actually changes direction and hit the gate.

Thought the needle didn't make any sound, but it was actually deflected towards the old man which was taken by surprise.

He quickly, put up his Qi field and the needle was disintegrated at it hit his Qi field.

"Who dare did that?" he muttered as he began scanning the people in the surroundings. 

His gaze landed on Gu Guxhing who seems to be the strongest cultivator in the area at the infant soul realm. Hence his suspicion was channeled towards him. But, however, he looks at the situation, the man is actually not paying attention towards him as his eyes are focused on the gate.

And so he just waited and observe as he knew that he might be offending someone who is stronger than him. This is because he truly didn't notice how his needle could have been deflected just like that.

Meanwhile, the young woman pushing the gate is now sweating with large beads of sweat as she forces herself to open the gate.

"Only a couple of inches and I will be able to reach the threshold of being able to enter… Come on Xuqi… you can do it!" she thought as she holds on and uses her full strength to push harder.

Right now her resolve is strong as she knew that her family is relying on her to get this chance to be accepted in a sect. With the sect's influence, she might be able to protect her mother from the claws of those who desire power in the family.

Ever since her father died a year ago, she and her mother were ostracised by the family. Her uncle who became the clan head after her father took everything away from them. He even has designs for her mother.

Luckily her mother was wise enough to run to her maternal family after that happened and they hid. But she wanted to take back what her father left for them. And so, after hiding for 6 months she was able to reach the gold core realm through her hard effort.

She didn't want revenge as her father told her the darkness in the family. And her mother taught her that revenge will not bear anything good. Hence, all she wanted now is to regain the name of her father and to prove to the rest of the family that she is not a pushover.

Although she knew it was dangerous, she still returns to the family to participate in this trial.

With a smile on her face, she looks at the gate and saw that only a couple of inches are left before she can open the gate.

However, something that she didn't expect happened.
