The Deadly Hitwoman: The Heiress's Special Abilities

Chapter 525: Chapter 525: Defeating the Mother-in-Law Is the Path to Victory

This is Xia Ji’s goal.

As long as she lives, she will not let Su Yu have peace.

So their greatest enemy is Xia Ji.

Han Jing couldn’t help but mock herself, saying that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are natural enemies, yet she had never seen a mother and son reach such a level of enmity. Therefore, if she wants to grow old with the one she loves, she must first get rid of the mother-in-law who could even poison her own son.

But right now, none of them are a match for Xia Ji.

If her master’s guess is correct, then Xia Ji might at least be at the White Flame Level, while despite her desperate efforts over the years, she has only barely reached the advanced Blue Flame Level.

Though she achieved this in just five years, if given more time, she’s confident she could handle the old hag.

But she is also very greedy.

Han Jing reached out and pinched Xiao Xue’s chubby little face. She really wanted Xiao Xue to openly call Su Yu ”father,” and she wished to stay by his side like before.

She has many expectations, and she can only grow desperately.

The people who returned from Wengshan Sect were unusually silent, as if everything was the same as before, yet something seemed different.

Han Jing instructed Xiao Xue to be obedient and not to cause trouble, saying she would continue her seclusion training.

People only thought she was crazy, but really didn’t know what to say.

——

The next day was the time for the Nine Sects Sword Competition held at Wengshan Sect.

From early morning, disciples from the nine sects participating in the competition gathered in the central square of Wengshan Sect.

Some unexpected events occurred yesterday, but as it involved the Sect Leader of Spirit Flame Sect and the Young Master of Lingyou Hall, no one dared to talk openly, even if they whispered behind closed doors.

Spirit Cultivators may appear glamorous, but in reality, it’s all about power.

Ling Xiang and Su Yu, both hailed in the Spirit Cultivation Realm as the most promising individuals, were truly not to be trifled with.

The Sect Leader of Wengshan Sect wandered near Su Yu’s door, but ultimately feigned ignorance and left.

Ever since Su Yu reappeared five years ago and took over as the Sect Leader of Spirit Flame Sect, he became notably silent and cold, completely devoid of humanity.

The old Su Yu was merely quirky and sharp-tongued, but now he is a fearsome deity that no one dares to approach.

As a Sect Leader, it seems unreasonable for him to be like this, yet hardly anyone dares to challenge him.

Today’s weather is excellent, with a clear sky, the sun shining gently through the mouth of the mountain onto Wengshan Sect, nestled in the mountain’s belly.

But in the arena, tension filled the air as the disciples were eager to try their skills.

The sects of the Spirit Cultivation Realm hold several sword competitions of various scales each year, basically acting as inter-sect sparring. For a sect like Wengshan, which is neither large nor small, being able to invite Spirit Flame Sect and Lingyou Hall lends them considerable prestige, so the Sect Leader of Wengshan Sect placed great importance on this competition.

They gave it their all during the showdown with Spirit Flame Sect.

The Spirit Flame Sect has been declining in recent years, emboldening many small sects to learn from Lingyou Hall and try to suppress them.

But on the martial field, the competition was precisely at the duel between Spirit Flame Sect and Lingyou Hall.

When enemies met, their eyes were filled with rage, and they quickly became intensely engaged.

Among the Spirit Flame Sect disciples, there was a not very tall, but exceptionally agile figure that quickly caught the attention of many people.
