Chapter 84: Powerless
But the situation this time was very different. She was not the only one worrying about her own lifespan.

Mother was just as worried about this matter as she was, so in this Taoist competition, mother had fought all the way here, and in the end, she would definitely not let her hold her back.

Between beating her to tears and successfully obtaining the longevity elixir, mother would definitely choose the latter.

But...even though she is inferior to her mother in many aspects, she is far better than her in Taoism.

Anyway, it has come to the last step. No matter who of the mother and daughter gets the longevity pill, they will have achieved their wish. In this case, they might as well have a good fight on the stage.

Even her mother, who was too lazy to take care of things on weekdays, heard the gossips circulating outside. How could she, who liked to collect information from all directions, not know about them?

Although she would not, as the rumors said, let her inferiority complex sink into the mud because of her own qualifications, slowly fermenting and breeding inner demons.

But although those words could not hurt her, they did affect her mother's mood.

In this case, she now has the opportunity to fight her mother openly in front of everyone on the stage. She dares to say that as long as the two of them do not hold back and compete with all their heart and soul, they can easily silence the gossips.

"Mom, let's make a deal. Today in the ring, you must not hold back on me. Don't show any reluctance to fight me."

A day passed in a flash. The next morning, Zhou Ling drank porridge while looking at her mother who was secretly looking at her from time to time.

I always felt that she seemed to be hesitant to talk, so I took the initiative to speak and find a topic to see if I could get out what my mother wanted to say.

"Yeah." Zhou Li responded sullenly, avoiding his daughter's sight and continuing to eat.

Three, two, one...

Zhou Ling counted silently in her heart. Sure enough, when she counted to one, her mother put down her chopsticks.

"Ling'er, you should wear a mask when you are in the ring."

"No way." Zhou Ling refused without thinking.

"First, the rules don't allow it, and second,... Mom, we can't really become each other's weaknesses. We must be merciless when we need to take action. Otherwise, if someone else catches on to our weakness, we will be the ones who suffer."

Last time my mother wanted to fight with me, I couldn't bring myself to do it. The same was true for the other side. How could my mother be willing to hit her?

But after this competition, they will go out to gain experience.

There are dangers everywhere outside the sect. Although the master promised that the fact that she and her mother went out for training would be concealed as much as possible, Zhou Ling's name is well-known in the current world of immortal cultivation. Now there are many eyes in the sect who are watching her. Although the time of training is scheduled to be after the competition, these people from outside the sect will withdraw at that time.

But Zhou Ling knew that if someone wanted to keep an eye on her every move, it would not be difficult to plant spies in the sect without her having to do it in person.

As people who have been suspected of being the descendants of Hengyue, the demons would rather kill the innocent than let them go, and they would not give up easily. Once the news of their going out for training leaks out, they will be in complete danger.

Especially at such times, they cannot have any weaknesses and must attack the opponent when necessary. They have to practice so that if they are captured in the future, this trick may come in handy.

Zhou Liming understood her daughter's painstaking efforts, but when she stood on the stage and looked at her daughter's familiar small face opposite her, she raised her arms and shrugged her shoulders slightly, still feeling a little overwhelmed.
