Chapter 317 A petty, dangerous man
"Although I am an Expert Stage Cultivator, I am serious, I can easily get away from a few King Stage Cultivators pursuing me.
I am stronger than I look."
Nux smiled playfully and Ember narrowed her eyes.
If it was anyone else other than Nux, she would have doubted these words, however, Nux was a monstrous prodigy,
He wouldn't have survived this far if he didn't have a few trump cards hidden.
Also, Nux never said he could defeat King Stage Cultivators.
He said he could run away from them.
Although this wasn't something very common, there have been a few cases where an Expert Stage Cultivator survived an assault from a King Stage Cultivator.
Therefore, Nux achieving that isn't something impossible.
However,
"How are you so sure about it?" Ember questioned.
She wanted to know more about it.
"That,
Is a secret."
Nux smiled.
Ember narrowed her eyes in frustration, however, she soon controlled herself and questioned.
"Have you tested it before?"
"No, I have not." Nux shook his head.
"How about you test it with me here? I am sure it will help you."
Ember offered with a smile.
She had two reasons to do what she did,
First, she wanted to help Nux,
Second, she wanted to see if Nux could actually do it.
Getting away from a King Stage Cultivator, she wanted to see how Nux would do or try to do it.
She wanted to see why he was so confident.
However, as if trying to annoy her purposefully, Nux shook his head,
"As I said, it is a secret and is my trump card.
I can't show it to you carelessly."
"But wouldn't it be better if you knew if it would work or not with full certainty?" Ember questioned.
"It would, however, I will still not risk it."
Nux smiled.
Ember's face twitched in frustration, however, soon, a small smile appeared on her face.
"Hmmm, so you are telling me that you won't use it unless it is absolutely necessary?"
"Yes."
"You are saying that you won't reveal your secret unless a King Stage Cultivator is coming for your life? Is that correct?"
"Yes, it is."
Nux nodded and Ember's smile widened.
Different thoughts were running wild in her mind right now.
However, Nux shook his head.
"Don't do what you are thinking of doing."
He muttered with a soft smile on his face.
"Huh? Why not?" Ember questioned.
She didn't even try to deny it.
She knew Nux had caught on as well.
"Well, as I said, I will only use it if my life is on the line and if you push me that far,
I will take my revenge."
"..."
Ember turned silent.
For a moment, she found herself lost in Nux's golden eyes that were shining uncontrollably.
It took her a good minute to bring her mind out of that frozen state and once she returned, she looked at Nux and smiled playfully.
