The Legend of the Princess' Counterattack

Chapter 154 Chu Mochen's Appearance

During a collective activity of the sect, the sun shines on the wide martial arts training ground of Xuanqing Sect. Many disciples, wearing the same sect uniforms, line up neatly, waiting for the activity to begin. Yun Yao stands in the crowd, her eyes full of curiosity and expectation. She is full of freshness about everything in the sect.

At this time, there was a slight commotion from the front of the crowd. Yun Yao looked up and saw a figure slowly approaching under the gaze of everyone. This person was Chu Mochen. He was tall and straight, standing like a pine or cypress. His black robe fluttered in the wind, adding a bit of coldness to his temperament. His face was handsome and angular, and his deep eyes seemed to hide endless stars, but also revealed a hint of arrogance that made people difficult to approach.

Yun Yao couldn't help but look at him a few more times, secretly admiring his outstanding temperament. However, fate always seemed to like to play tricks on people. Just as Yun Yao took a step forward, her foot accidentally stepped on a loose stone. Yun Yao immediately lost her balance, her body tilted forward, and she was about to fall to the ground.

At this critical moment, Chu Mochen just walked to her side. He subconsciously reached out and grabbed Yun Yao's arm, holding her steadily. Yun Yao's cheeks flushed instantly. She looked at Chu Mochen with embarrassment and gratitude, and said softly: "Thank you."

Chu Mochen just glanced at her indifferently, loosened his hand, and said coldly: "Be careful when walking." After that, he walked straight forward as if nothing had happened.

Yun Yao stood there, watching Chu Mochen's back as he left, feeling a little disappointed. She had thought he would at least smile or say something comforting, but she didn't expect him to be so cold. However, Yun Yao was not the kind of person who would be easily affected by other people's attitudes. She quickly adjusted her mood and continued to participate in the event.

The event was an internal competition to test the disciples' training results and combat capabilities. The disciples were divided into two groups and took turns to compete on stage. Yun Yao watched each competition carefully from the audience. She was attracted by the wonderful spells and moves of her fellow disciples, and at the same time, she was secretly learning and summarizing her experience.

When it was Chu Mochen's turn to go on stage, the atmosphere in the entire martial arts training ground became heated. Everyone knew that Chu Mochen was a talented disciple in the sect with extraordinary strength, and everyone was looking forward to his wonderful performance. Chu Mochen walked onto the stage and faced his opponent with a stern expression on his face, without any fear or nervousness.

After the competition began, Chu Mochen quickly launched an attack. He made a gesture with his hands, and a sharp sword energy instantly attacked his opponent. The sword energy passed through the air like lightning, carrying a powerful force. His opponent was not to be outdone, and quickly cast a defensive spell to try to resist the attack. However, Chu Mochen's attack was too powerful, and it easily broke through the opponent's defense and directly pushed him back several steps.

The disciples in the audience exclaimed in amazement. They were impressed by Chu Mochen's powerful strength. Yun Yao was also stunned. Although she knew Chu Mochen was powerful, she didn't expect him to be so strong. In the following competition, Chu Mochen showed his superb skills and exquisite spells. Each of his attacks was just right, and each of his defenses was flawless, leaving his opponent with no chance to fight back. In the end, Chu Mochen easily won the competition, and the audience burst into warm applause and cheers.

After the competition, the disciples began to communicate and discuss freely. Yun Yao originally wanted to talk to Chu Mochen and ask him some questions about cultivation. After all, she had just seen Chu Mochen's performance in the competition and knew that she still had a lot to learn. However, when she walked to Chu Mochen, Chu Mochen just glanced at her and turned away without giving her any chance to speak.

Yun Yao was a little unhappy. She felt that Chu Mochen was too arrogant and rude. She thought to herself, "Isn't it just that he is a little stronger? What's so great about that?" However, Yun Yao was not discouraged. She decided to improve her strength through her own efforts so that Chu Mochen would look at her with new eyes.

Since then, Yun Yao has worked harder in her cultivation. She gets up early every day and goes to the training ground to practice. Whether it is basic exercises or complex spells, she practices seriously and does not miss any details. In the process of cultivation, Yun Yao encountered many difficulties and problems, but she never gave up. Whenever she encountered a problem, she would ask the elders and senior brothers and sisters for advice, and constantly improve her cultivation methods.

As the days passed, Yun Yao's strength continued to improve. Her efforts and progress were noticed by the elders and fellow disciples in the sect, and everyone praised her. Chu Mochen, although he still maintained his cold and arrogant look, also noticed the changes in Yun Yao. He began to feel a little curious about this woman who had been ignored by him. He wanted to know how Yun Yao had made such great progress in such a short time.

One day, Yun Yao was practicing a new spell in the training field. This spell was difficult and required the practitioner to control the spiritual power very accurately. Yun Yao had practiced many times, but still could not master the essentials. She was a little anxious and frustrated. At this time, Chu Mochen happened to pass by the training field. He saw Yun Yao's distressed look, and his heart moved, and he walked over involuntarily.

"It's wrong for you to practice like this." Chu Mochen suddenly said.

Yun Yao looked up and was a little surprised to see Chu Mochen. She didn't expect Chu Mochen to take the initiative to talk to her, especially when she was in trouble.

"Then how should we practice?" Yun Yao asked subconsciously.

Chu Mochen walked to Yun Yao, picked up the magic weapon in her hand, and said: "This spell requires you to concentrate your spiritual power on the tip of the magic weapon, and then release it in a gentle manner, like this..." As he spoke, Chu Mochen demonstrated it himself.

Yun Yao watched Chu Mochen's movements carefully, and suddenly she understood. She followed Chu Mochen's instructions and tried to practice again, and it really worked.

"Thank you, Chu Mochen." Yun Yao said.

Chu Mochen nodded slightly and said, "You're welcome. You can ask me any questions you have in the future." After that, he turned and left.

Yun Yao looked at Chu Mochen's departing back, and a warm current surged in her heart. She found that Chu Mochen was not as cold and arrogant as she imagined, he was just not good at expressing himself. Since then, the relationship between Yun Yao and Chu Mochen has gradually changed. They began to frequently exchange their cultivation experiences, learn from each other and make progress. In this process, Yun Yao's understanding of Chu Mochen has become deeper and deeper. She found that although Chu Mochen looks cold on the outside, he is very kind and enthusiastic in his heart. He has a very high pursuit and persistence in cultivation, which is why he can become a genius disciple in the sect.

Chu Mochen also developed a special feeling for Yun Yao. He admired Yun Yao's efforts and tenacity, and liked her intelligence and wit. He found that when he was with Yun Yao, he always felt an inexplicable joy and satisfaction. However, Chu Mochen did not realize that this feeling was love, he just regarded Yun Yao as a special friend.

As time went by, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen's status in the sect became higher and higher. They participated in many sect tasks and activities together, and each time they were able to complete the tasks excellently, winning honor for the sect. Their names gradually spread in Xuanqing Sect, becoming the object of envy and admiration of many disciples.

The author says:

In this chapter, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen's first encounter was not a happy one, but it was this kind of "no fight, no acquaintance" plot that laid the groundwork for the development of their subsequent relationship. By describing Chu Mochen's outstanding performance in the competition, his strong strength was demonstrated, and Yun Yao's efforts and enterprising spirit were also highlighted. The two people went from disliking each other at first to gradually understanding and helping each other later. This emotional transformation was natural and real. I hope readers will like the content of this chapter, and I also look forward to everyone continuing to pay attention to Yun Yao and Chu Mochen's growth story in Xuanqing Sect.
