What is this thing?" Yani asked in bewilderment as he held the bizarre scarlet tread bead. He was definitely holding on to it, but he couldn't get a solid grasp of its weight nor temperature. Its rays were enticing and burned fiercely, emitting a familiar scarlet tread color, but also gave Yani a strange feeling of never seeing this color before. Although his heart no longer throbbed as furiously as before, his profound veins suddenly went into a violent turmoil, causing the blood vessels in his entire body to slightly boil. A strange feeling also assaulted Yani's heart. At this moment, he was sure he had never seen this scarlet tread bead before, but when he held it in his hand, he felt calm and composed, as if it was originally his, and had finally returned back to him. This princess has no idea what that is, but I can assure you that you're a goner. Inside the sky poison pearl, Jasmine's voice lowered as the expression on her tiny face became incomparably solemn. Despite dissuading Yani countless times, she was unable to stop him from taking a risk time and time again. After all was said and done, it still ended up like this. if not for the fact that her life was intertwined with young cheese. She really wanted to use her little hand and slap this reckless and fearless man that would forsaken his life for a so-called opportunity to death. Just after Jasmine had finished speaking, a world-shaking dragon roar suddenly came in from outside the cave. Ro o r despicable humans. So it turns out that you're actually lusting after this king's treasure. All of you are repulsive scoundrels. Unforgivable. Unforgivable. 10 at the 10th level of the sky profound realm may not even necessarily win against the lowest level of the emperor profound realm, let alone a 10th level sky profound and four other practitioners that were below the sixth level of the sky profound realm. In a blink of an eye, after the flame dragon had unleashed its true power, the five people of the Burning Heaven clan were forced into desperate straits. Those waves of dragon-shaped flames were not only incomparably hot, but also brought along a huge rippling strength that dragged the five people of the Burning Heaven clan slowly into a maelstrom of death. At this moment, as soon as the five experts of the Burning Heaven clan displayed an expression of a despair that revealed their lost hope, the flame dragon suddenly bursted out in fury. Its entire body emitted an aura that could cause a person to tremble in fear as it let out a deafening and angry roar yet again. Within the roar, a ball of fire that measured up to a few dozen meters smashed into the five people, causing all five to scream in agony. However, the flame dragon did not continue to attack, but instead turned to a different direction and angrily rushed towards its cave. The five experts from burning heaven clan escaped, battered and exhausted from the flame dragon's fire, with each suffering different degrees of burn. The greater parts of their hair, beards, and even the clothes on their body were incinerated by quite a bit. As they watched the flame dragons suddenly withdrawal, each and every one of them were still in a panicked state. "What happened? Why did it suddenly flee and go back?" one man coarsely asked while panting heavily. "From what it had just said, it seems like someone took advantage of our battle and tried to sneak into his old nest. What's the point of caring about that now? Quickly retreat. We are lucky to retrieve our lives and live after actually provoking a emperor profound beast. Anyways, let's scram. The five experts of Burning Heaven clan didn't dare to stay there any longer. After gathering their strength and were too afraid to look back, they quickly retreated. At this moment, the thoughts in their hearts were one and the same. Once they returned back to Burning Heaven clan, they were going to find the guy that said the flame dragon was only a highlevel sky profound beast and ruthlessly beat him up. Inside the cave, Yani sensed the approach of great danger. He scrunched his eyebrow and not daring to delay any longer, dashed toward the exit with the fastest speed possible. However, before he could even take half a step, an earsplitting stomp came from his front, and a wave of boundless anger, followed by a wave of scorching air rushed at his face. The walls and floor of the cave all trembled faintly, and not long after, the huge head of the flame dragon appeared in Yanchi's line of sight. Yani's aura was so weak that the flame dragon was stunned for a second. However, when it noticed the scarlet tread bead on his hand, its huge eyes radiated an indignant blaze. Presumptuous human to actually lust after this king's treasure, prepare to suffer this king's wrath. Yani's heart became apprehensive. He quickly calmed down and tried to think of a way to escape. Of course, it was obvious that he would obediently return the bead in his hand. However, it was absolutely impossible that the flame dragon would even give him a chance to speak. This formidable force kept him firmly in place, and in the next second, he would be burnt into ashes. If you don't want to die, then stop in the name of this princess. As the shadow of death descended, a charming ice cold voice suddenly sounded from above. At the same time, a terrifying pressure enveloped the entire flame dragon cave. The flame dragon stopped its movement. Then, its body started to uncontrollably tremble beneath this great pressure. Lifting its head up, it looked toward the red-haired girl that had somehow appeared unknowingly in the air. The rage in its huge eyes were all replaced with astonishment and fear. The aura that this goddess had given out far exceeded his imagination. In the presence of this pressuring strength, it felt as tiny as an ant that could be obliterated into ashes at any moment. It opened its dragon mouth and let out an unsuppressible trembling voice. Who Who are you? You have no right to know this princess's name. Jasmine replied with an ice cold face. Her beautiful eyes released a razor sharp glare. This cave of yours, I want it. If you don't want to die, then get out of this princess's face right now. Yani raised his head and looked at Jasmine. His heart was shocked as well. The pressure of this little girl unexpectedly stopped this emperor profound beast. What exactly was the level of her profound strength? However, at this moment, he suddenly found out that the trembling of the flame dragon had stopped. He he the flame dragon laughed. This king understands now. You two cunning humans are simply just faking your bravado. Even though this king does not know what method you used to create this overwhelming pressure, but did you think this king would be as stupid as you humans? Jasmine's eyebrows suddenly became limp. You want to die? Of course, this king doesn't want to die. But with just you two, that's not enough to kill this king. The flame dragon continued with sarcasm. If you really had the ability to kill this king, you would have came out in the open to steal this king's possession. Otherwise, why would you choose to sneak in while this king was fighting the other foolish humans? If you really had the ability to kill this king, then the expression on this human's face wouldn't have been so unsightly when he saw me. Yani's heart immediately trembled in fear. A dragon's intellect was indeed incomparable to that of a normal profound beasts. And you, Brat, your gaze is cold and ruthless. The murderous intent on your body also surprised this king. To have such eyes with killing intent, you must have killed a numerous amount of living things. If you really wanted to kill this king and had the ability to do so, you would have already went on with it instead of condescendingly talk to this king. Your age is also quite young. But with a human's cultivation speed, it is fundamentally impossible to possess such a strong pressure at a young age. All this is merely an illusion. This king is not that stupid to fall for this deceit. Lusting after this king<unk>s treasure and also attempting to play tricks on this king, how can this king possibly forgive you? Turn into ashes. The flame dragon opened his mouth widely and suddenly shot a ball of blazing fire at Yani. Thump as a great force knocked Yani in the shoulder and pushed him far away. He barely dodged the fatal flames of the flame dragon. Jasmine appeared at Yani's previous position. Her white and tender face was masked with a layer of terrifying killing intent. Since you want to die, this princess shall grant your wish. F Wuash. A large wave of strong, profound energy was released from Jasmine's body. This profound aura was simply too terrifying. The aura that was originally shapeless began to stir up a violent storm, instantly extinguishing the flame dragon's burning flame. Yani, who was knocked away, hit his head on a rock and fainted for quite a while. When he regained conscious and saw Jasmine's appearance, his pupils suddenly shrank back as he cried out, "Jasmine, stop. Do you want to die? Isn't it all your fault? If you died, this princess will also die as well." Jasmine yelled in anger as she unwaveringly locked her endless killing intent on the flame dragon. Under the incomparably terrifying, profound aura and killing intent, the flame dragon completely froze in place, and its pair of dragon eyes filled with deep fear and disbelief. It couldn't believe that a human girl could unleash such a powerful, profound aura. Now die. Star god's brilliant annihilating slash. Jasmine, stop. Jasmine's actions made Yani pale in fright. Before he could stand up, Jasmine's exquisite body had already flown towards the flame dragon. To then, like a shooting star, pass through the flame dragon's body. In that instant, every element within the heaven and earth seemed to have stopped revolving. The howling of the wind had stopped. The flame sprout had stopped burning. The sound beside the ears were gone. And even his own scream could not be heard. The flame dragon's enormous body was frozen in place, and a bloody cross that was created by the penetration was clearly imprinted on its body. Impose civil. The flame dragon's pupil shrank back violently as though he had seen the most terrifying and unbelievable scene in the whole wide world. Following that, both his eyes slowly lost their color and focus. The huge body split into four equal pieces and scattered on the scorching ground. The great and powerful flame dragon was instantly extinguished under Jasmine's hands. Even when the Burning Heaven clan's first elder, Fen Moly, used the Burning Heaven blade, he was only able to put a scratch on the flame dragon's tough body. Yet, Jasmine, without any weapons, used only her smooth and white hands to split apart the flame dragon's body, as if it was made out of tofu. Seeing the flame dragon's body that was split in four, Yani was stumped without words. Then his heart suddenly shuddered as his gaze fell further ahead. After loudly shouting, "Jasmine!" he desperately ran forward. At this moment, Jasmine was already lying on the floor. Her face, neck, and limbs were all a pale white without a trace of color. Although she had only released a large amount of profound strength for a few seconds, it had allowed the deadly poison that had infiltrated her soul to act up violently. The purification and suppression of the deadly poison for the past few months inside the sky poison pearl had all been destroyed in an instant. Jasmine, after reaching Jasmine's side, Yani immediately squatted down. He placed his left hand on her skinny shoulder and with all his power used the sky poison pearls purification on Jasmine's body. However, the deadly poison inside Jasmine's soul was simply too terrifying. Even with the sky poison pearls purification speed, it was still impossible to suppress its violent rampage. Her body gradually became ice cold and slowly became more and more transparent, elusive. This time, ought to really die. Jasmine softly moaned. Her voice was as light as a gentle breeze, and the normally cold and proud eyes at this moment were only filled with a heartbreaking dullness and distress. Jasmine, Jasmine. While calling Jasmine's name, Yani's heart tightly cramped. The degree of severess of this time's deadly poison breakout was more than 10 times stronger than the breakout four months ago. After all, last time she only settled down two spirit profound realms, and that already made her writhe in agony. This time, however, she had dispatched a true dragon of the Emperor Profound Realm. In a flash, the intensity of the profound strength she had to utilize was simply as different as heaven and earth. Jasmine couldn't have not known the outcome of killing this flame dragon. But she had to strike because if she didn't, Yani would have died. And if Yani died, she would also definitely die as well. Immense remorse made the inside of Yoni's heart experience a wave of prickling pain. During the process of sneaking into the flame dragon's cave, Jasmine had continuously dissuaded him thrice and had also warned him that the true dragon's treasure would undoubtedly have power imprints on them without exception, meaning that they weren't all that easy to obtain. Yet, he still continued on without hesitation. He indeed had courage and boldness, but he may have had unknowingly forgotten one thing. He was no longer the Yanqi whose voice resounded throughout the continent before, but instead was only a trivial being that had only reached the fourth level of elementary profound realm. What he was facing, however, was an extremely horrifying emperor profound beast. With even the slightest hint of carelessness, he would lose his life and drag Jasmine into losing her life with him. Yet, this kind of outcome still occurred in the end. I'm sorry, Jasmine. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have not listened to you. I shouldn't have been that reckless. As his hands felt the changes within Jasmine's body, Yani's heart constricted more and more, he said sorry to Jasmine again and again. But no matter how much he apologized and regretted at this point, it simply couldn't restore the present situation. Jasmine's lips slightly moved, but the sound she gave off was too quiet to hear. Her body became colder and colder and had unwittingly already changed into a semi-transparent state. Although Jasmine's body was only a halfthereal form that depended on Yanchi's life force, in the end it was still the host of Jasmine's soul. If this body disappeared, then Jasmine's soul that had lost its host would disperse and completely disappear under the devourment of the deadly poison. Jasmine, Jasmine. Yani tightly clenched his teeth as his left hand desperately emitted the sky poison pearls purification power. His right hand forcefully rocked her body, greedily, hoping to rouse even the tiniest hint of her consciousness. Finally, he saw her ghastly white lips faintly open and close again. Yani froze for a moment, then hurriedly put his ears near her lips. I don't want to die. Still haven't avenged mother and brother. Haven't killed them all. I don't want to die. TL Jasmine uses Chinese letter, Chinese letter for mother in English. I guess it would mean my mother, the empress, but its true meaning is mother and is generally only used by an imperial child. Jasmine's voice was incredibly feeble, and it was almost impossible to hear clearly even from this close. This feeble voice, however, made the inside of Yoni's heart violently surge. When Jasmine first officially appeared in front of his eyes 4 months ago, he had already felt a kind of inexplicable sense of familiarity from her, a kind of feeling that was very similar to himself during those days. She was undoubtedly young and outrageously beautiful and even calls herself a princess. She should have grown up showered with love from tens of thousands of people. Yet her beautiful eyes always brimmed with coldness and apathy when killing people. Her tender face didn't carry the slightest hint of fear and sympathy, but instead held cruelty and an unchanging indifference. This time he finally understood what was so familiar about her that resembled him. During his previous days, it was hatred. In Azure Cloud continent when he was 17, he had lived under the shadow of his master being hounded to death. That time only hatred, bottomless hatred overflowed from inside his heart. During those days, the expression in his eyes, his apathy, his ruthlessness perhaps were extremely similar to the Jasmine he was looking at right now. However, at that time, he was already 17 and could at least be considered to be an adult. But Jasmine was only 13 this year. He couldn't imagine what kind of hatred it was that drove a girl who originally should have been an angel into an apathetic and cruel devil. In her muttering just now, the way she referred to herself had turned into I instead of this princess. This discovery also made the inside of Yani's heart complicated. It was because the Jasmine right now had almost lost her awareness. So the words she said in this state were words that originated from the soul. This meant that the two words this princess were actually not what she was accustomed to referring herself as, but was something that she had deliberately address herself as. It was as if using these words, she was continuously reminding herself about something. A familiar feeling, as if they had suffered the same fate, was born from the depths of Yani's heart, layered together with his immense feelings of guilt and remorse. He started to shake Jasmine's body with even more force and loudly shouted, "Jasmine, wake up. You must not lose consciousness. Didn't we make a deal? You gave me a new set of profound veins, but I haven't accomplished what I had to do for you. Are you willing to just leave like that?" Also, you're my master, but you still haven't taught me anything. As my master, you can't just act incompetent like this. Wake up. Please wake up. But no matter how desperately Yani urged the sky poison pearl and shook her, Jasmine no longer responded. Her petite face lost its last hint of color, and her body became more and more transparent. Although it was still possible to touch the entity that was her body, Yani could almost clearly see the sand that was below on the ground through her chest. A wave of chilliness stemmed from inside Yani's heart, and even his teeth were about to be crushed from clenching too hard. He violently smashed his fist on his forehead, but the feeling of acute pain did not ease the inside of his heart by even a little bit. It's your fault. Why didn't you listen to Jasmine? Your life was not only yours, but also Jasmine's life. In the end, you even needed Jasmine to save you with her life. You're the one who murdered her. Yani clenched his teeth and bitterly condemned himself. From the raw and bloody forehead that was hit by his fist, a drop of blood slowly drip down and fell onto the sizzling ground. As he watched the drop of blood quickly dry up, Yani suddenly froze. "Blood, right, my blood." Jasmine sucked his blood to connect her life with his. The halfthereal body was also born from his blood and his life force. At the same time, his body was fused with the sky poison pearl. Because of this, his blood may have acquired the trait of having extremely high poison resistance. Promptly grabbing onto that glimmer of hope, Yani didn't dare to hesitate for even a second, he extended his left arm and ferociously slashed it with the fingertips of his right hand and broke open a long and deep laceration that instantly caused blood to gush out. Right away, he used his fingers to carefully opened Jasmine's lips without the slightest hint of color and allowed his own blood to flow into her lips. Drop by drop. At the same, he used his hand and forcefully squeezed his shoulder in order to make the blood flow out faster. Jasmine, I won't let you die. I definitely won't. Even if it was only for that promise I made in the past that year. Fresh blood quickly streamed down and fell into Jasmine's open lips. However, beads of blood slowly overflowed from the corner of her mouth right after. Jasmine was completely unconscious and was fundamentally incapable of swallowing by herself. Yanqi tightly knitted his brow. After a brief period of hesitation, he lifted his own left arm, bit into the wound, and strenuously sucked. After he had sucked up a little less than half a mouthful, he lowered his body and again gently opened Jasmine's lips with his hand. If you can wake up, then no matter how you punish me after, I'll take it willingly." In the midst of his quiet mumble, Yani lowered his head, gently covered her lips with his, and carefully allowed the blood in his mouth to gradually cross over, drop by drop, into hers. Using a meticulous breath, he blew on his own blood, making it flow down from her mouth into her body. Although Jasmine's mouth was extremely pale, it was still impeccably tender and smooth, which made Yani have an uncontrollable urge to stay like that for a while longer. Once a mouthful of blood was transferred over, Yani's lips returned to the wound at once and forcefully sucked again. After sucking up another mouthful, he again carefully transferred it into Jasmine's mouth. After repeating this a few times, the wound on his arm began to heal, making his blood sucking speed become much more slower. Yi immediately extended out his left hand and sliced open another deep laceration right beside the first wound and fresh blood once more trickled down like a stream. Blood was continuously being transferred into Jasmine's mouth. When the fifth line of scar appeared on Yani's arm, approximately 1/5 of the blood in his body had flowed into Jasmine's body. A substantial feeling of dizziness emerged from Yani's brain. However, at this moment, he suddenly discovered that Jasmine's body was already no longer turning elucory, and had started to become apparent little by little. The breakout of the deadly poison felt by the sky poison pearl had also started to die down like flames that had been showered in rain. "Success! Did I succeed?" A wave of pleasant surprise overcame Yoni's heart. Without the slightest hesitation, he extended his arm again and sliced open the sixth stroke of laceration. His entire arm was already numb, yet the inside of his heart was nevertheless filled with a happy joy. If his blood really was able to save her, then what was there to be stingy about? If the human body loses more than 1/5if of its blood volume in a short amount of time, it would lead to the failure of bodily functions. More than onethird, it would lead to shock. More than 1/ half would lead to death. Yani, who had an exceedingly high medical expertise, clearly was aware of this. But his movements from beginning to end did not have the slightest bit of sluggishness nor hesitation as he continued to add more cuts onto his arm stroke by stroke. When he finally was incapable of resisting the impossibly heavy dizziness in his brain, his vision became a field of white as he fainted while laying onto the rock wall behind him. In the midst of his hazy consciousness, the silhouette of a girl that he had always tried to forget slowly appeared. During the seven years, he had lived in hatred in order to obtain more power. He had desperately trained everyday until his entire body became tattered and was always close to death a countless number of times. Every time she would always gently treat his wounds, bring delicious food to him, fix his deteriorated clothing, and make the bed for him. And on the next day, she would silently watch him leave. During that period of time, she was the only warmth and the only harbor he could soundly sleep in. However, during that time there was only hatred in his heart other than struggling back when covered all over with cuts and bruises. He had never given her any companionship, never bought her a single piece of hair ornament, and never made any promises with her. He even had never shown her a single smile until that day. She left him forever while laying in his arms. At that time, the expression in her eyes and her voice became a lifetime's worth of unforgettable pain that drilled at his heart. In my heart, there are as many wounds as there are on your body. But I don't regret becoming the girl that accompanied you when you were alone. Even though it was painful, it was also very blissful. Elder brother Yani, if later when you're lonely and there's a girl who's willing to stay by your side, then she must be an angel sent to you by the heavens. Don't let her be hurt again. Okay. After Yani lost consciousness, Jasmine's body no longer appeared ethereal. She slowly opened her eyes and looked at the traces of blood on the corner of Yani's mouth, as well as the lines of horrid wounds on his left arm. All the coldness and indifference in her eyes dissolved away like that of melting ice and was replaced by a deep kind of complexity and haziness. Yanqi didn't know how long he had fainted. After he finally recovered his consciousness and opened his eyes, the first thing he saw were Jasmine's opened eyes. "Jasmine, you regained consciousness?" Yani immediately yelled out with surprise and joy. However, his voice was a bit coarse, and when he tried to get up, he felt as if his body weighed millions of kilog. After becoming extremely weak from excessive blood loss, he struggled many times, but still couldn't manage to stand up. Why did you save me? Jasmine's voice still revealed her weakened health. She took one more glance at the scars on Yani's arm and immediately averted her eyes. If I had died, wouldn't that have been better for you? At least you won't need to mind the demands that I made you accept. Not to mention that you wouldn't need to worry about me killing you after I've reconstructed my body. Because Jasmine used her life to save me. I was saving myself, Jasmine stated in a somewhat raised voice. Yani was slightly stumped. He was confused as to why this sentence of his incited such a huge reaction from her. While feeling a little helpless, he said, "Then it's because you're my master. As a disciple, how could I just watch my master pass away in front of my very eyes? Master. Jasmine smiled with a hint of sadness. If I want to be reborn, then I'd have to assist you in acquiring a formidable amount of profound strength in the shortest time possible. Becoming your master was only because I wasn't willing to help you for free. In the end, it was all for myself. Did you really believe that I was doing it for your good? I knew all that. After having said those words, Jasmine failed to find a single hint of disappointment on Yani's face, but instead saw him with a little smile. Yani moved his body a little closer to Jasmine, looked in her eyes, and gently said, "But those are all not important. The reason why I was so desperate to save Jasmine is because Jasmine is a very, very beautiful girl, as beautiful as an angel." Jasmine became stupified. Although Jasmine had always strived to make herself appear apathetic, even to the point of being scary, this had always been real and can't be covered up even if Jasmine wanted to. With such a beautiful girl by my side, no matter who it would be, no one would want her to eternally leave his side. Without a doubt, I too am the same. This should be an acceptable reason, right? What kind of reason is this? Jasmine's lips that had recovered some color faintly trembled. I had killed so many people last year on the day of my 12th birthday in one day. One day I killed over 1,300,000 people. My entire body was died red. Even my name, blood soaked jasmine, was given to me by them. Yani's heart fiercely jumped. In one day, killed over 1,300,000 people. Capturing the deep shock that flashed across Yani's face, Jasmine closed her eyes and spoke mournfully. A person like me, how could I be called a beautiful girl? I am Jasmine, blood soaked Jasmine. I'm a dreadful demon who had killed countless people. Yani fixated his gaze on Jasmine for a long time. However, the expression in his eyes was not one of shock nor fear. It carried a very complex feeling, a feeling so complicated that no one else could understand. For a long time, he looked at Jasmine and slowly shook his head. Jasmine. Although there is no way for me to experience the feeling of killing that many people at the mere age of 12, but I believe that it must have been terribly painful. A kind of indescribable pain that no one would ever want to recall after. It had probably also be accompanied by endless nightmares and feelings of guilt which will even compel you to hate and loath yourself and furthermore numb your own soul by making you stick the labels of demon, heartless, and merciless onto yourself. Jasmine's eyes suddenly widened and stared at him in a daysaze. But I believe that Jasmine had always been a kind-hearted girl. The reason for turning yourself into a demon that you hate the most was entirely for the important people in your heart. Perhaps they were your closest friends or even the closest of family members. For this kind of person, it doesn't matter if she had killed even more people and soaked in even more blood. It would be impossible for her to be a demon. Besides, for cute and beautiful girls, no matter how big of a mistake was made, they can still be forgiven. If you believe that there are an innumerable amount of despicable sins placed on your body, then let me bear these sins together with Jasmine. After all, you're my master, and as your disciple, this kind of responsibility should of course naturally be carried together." Jasmine became completely stupified and stared at Yani in a days as if she had lost her soul. Her vision became more and more blurry. She couldn't understand why after the clear declaration of her own cruel sins, not only did he not show fear and rejection, but instead he had such a gentle gaze and spoke such gentle words. It shouldn't be like this. I killed so many people. I'm a frightening demon. It's obvious that everyone is scared of me. It's obvious that there shouldn't be anyone that would like me. Why did he desperately save me? Why does he reveal such a gentle gaze after mother and brother died? It's absolutely impossible that anyone would treat me this way. Jasmine's eyes became more and more hazy, and through the blurry vision, Yani's face slowly turned into her brother's gently smiling face. In an instant, globes and globes of tears flowed out of her eye sockets from the corner of her eyes. At this time, she, who had sworn to never shed tears ever again, actually streamed uncontrollable, frantic tears. A tiny gap silently opened from her heart that had been sealed with hatred and sin. Jasmine, so you're able to cry, too? That's more like a girl, right? Yi, on the other hand, smiled. He extended his finger to stroked her face and gently wiped her tear stains. However, Jasmine didn't resist him, but instead cried even harder while streaming tears and sobbing spasmotically. She said, "I I'm your master." When when you were trying to save me earlier, you sneakily kissed me so many times, and now you even made me cry in front of you. You can't bully masters like that. Ooh. Ooh. Ooh. Unmaster scolding is right, Yani said while smiling. Then after little master Jasmine recovers her health, punish me to your heart's content. Even if you want to return the kiss, I'll absolutely not retaliate. What he had thought was completely correct. Jasmine's true nature was definitely not what she normally expressed. since he had underwent experiences that were very similar to hers and had also possessed the same kind of aura and gaze before. He knew what was inside her heart and was even more aware of where her weakest and softest parts were. After crying, Jasmine's mood had also gradually calmed down. Although her body and soul were still extremely feeble, the life-threatening danger was essentially under control. She extended her petite hands and forcefully wiped away all the teardrops from her face. She then tried very hard to put on the usual cold and indifferent face. However, her eyes peered off to the side and didn't make eye contact with Yani. Then she spoke with a stern voice. Although there are no dangers for now, but for 3 months, I won't be able to channel even the slightest hint of profound energy. Otherwise, even using up all the blood in your body won't save me. I understand. Later on, I'll definitely try my best to be careful and won't let something like that happen again. Yanqi said with an extremely guilty conscience. The red-coled bead that you obtained, swallow it down. That thing may actually be what I've told you about before. A seed of the evil god. Ah. In his astonishment, Yani picked up the bizarre bead that he'd almost traded Jasmine's life for. You're saying this is is I'm only speculating. This was probably the reason why the flame dragon had always remained here. When you took it earlier, I had sensed an extremely bizarre fire element hidden within, and even I had never seen this kind of fire element. You also said earlier that you felt something beckon you, and you actually didn't get burned while holding it in your hands, either. Therefore, it may truly be one out of the five seeds of the evil god mentioned in the memory imprint, Jasmine said with a somewhat unsure tone. Also, Jasmine slightly bit her lips at an angle that Yani couldn't see. Later on, you're not allowed to just casually touch my face without my permission. After she said that, Jasmine turned into a beam of red light and returned into the sky poison pearl. Yani was left speechless for a while. Earlier was a face of icy coldness, then a weeping like the rustling sound of a storm, and now a stern little face that came along with words laced in killing intent. The speed at which a girl could suddenly turn hostile was indeed legitimate. Yani's current body was also very weak. Losing a large amount of blood had made his vitality decline greatly, and even just walking would supposedly be a somewhat difficult challenge. Not even mentioning the flame dragon, even if a normal profound beast came along, both he and Jasmine would be done for. If you killing 1,300,000 people in one day was already an unforgivable sin, was already a demon and was called blood soaked jasmine, then what about me, who in a day had killed 7,700,000 people with poison, who also turned an entire city into a hell of deadly poison, Yani silently muttered in his heart. To say demon, I am the real demon. which was also why I never dared to sully the angel by my side all the way till the day I lost her forever. Yani closed his eyes and silently paused for a long time. Then he opened his eyes and opened his palm. As he looked at the round bead shine with a bizarre red light in his hand, he thought about what Jasmine had said. After a brief period of hesitation, Yani braced his heart and slammed it directly in his mouth. holding it didn't cause any discomfort, but instead had an inexplicable sense of close familiarity. Furthermore, there was no worry about it being poisonous. One way or another, there shouldn't be any bad outcome from eating it, right? The crimson bead was forcefully swallowed into his stomach. At that instant, he detected an abrupt turbulence in his profound veins. He didn't even have time to survey the abnormal motions of the profound veins because the surface of his body unexpectedly released a ball of crimson luminescence. Right after, these crimson rays of light actually turned into a flaming blaze that combusted on the surface of his body and bathed his entire body inside its crimson raging inferno. This this is the unforeseen ignition of flames greatly startled him. What surprised him even more was the fact that his body unexpectedly did not feel a single degree of its burning luminescence, but instead felt an indescribable kind of coziness. Even his clothes were perfectly intact inside the flames, as if these horrifying flames were merely imaginary rays of bright light. "Jasmine, what's going on?" Yani asked as he lifted both his hands and looked at the flames on his body with a face full of astonishment. However, Jasmine did not answer him. inside the sky poison pearl. She silently watched the flames that encompassed his entire body until she finally opened her mouth to speak in a low mumble. The color of his profound veins have changed. Looks like that was indeed one of the five seeds that the evil god had left behind. In other words, this place was actually one of the evil gods five secret grounds. It was actually discovered by him just like that. His luck ought to be said to be extremely good. Or was it the evil god's profound veins guidance? The flames on Yanchi's body continued to burn even more vigorously and had already reached the height of a few dozens meters in a blink of an eye. The surrounding walls and even the stone under his feet slowly melted away to sink down inside the raging flames. One could imagine how terrifyingly high the flames temperature was. However, from beginning to the end, Yani never received the slightest bit of damage. What's more was the fact that he never felt any sort of discomfort at all. Inside the flames that encompassed his body, he felt that his own profound veins had continued to turmoil intensely. After he had finally managed to calm his heart down, he hurriedly used inner vision to check up on his profound veins. After taking a glance, he almost cried out in surprise because his profound veins had completely changed into a crimson red color. Even all the opened 54 profound entrances had become a deep red color. This is what's going on. His profound energy started to rapidly convulse in his profound veins. Waves and waves of profound energy that came from an unknown source swiftly flooded in, making the profound energy in his profound veins swell up again and again until it had expanded to the limit that his profound veins could accommodate. Bang! A soft sound. Yani faintly heard the sound of something being broken through. The profound energy within the profound veins continued to rapidly contract. The amount did not diminish, but instead became even thicker than before. This was clearly the outstanding behavior of a profound strength breakthrough. In the blink of an eye, his profound strength at the fourth level of the elementary profound realm broke through to the fifth level of the elementary profound realm. But it wasn't completely over just yet. The profound energy in the profound veins were still rapidly swelling. The profound energy from the unknown source flooded in like crazy and filled the profound veins that had just made a breakthrough to the brim again. Followed by bang, the quality of the profound energy inside the profound veins made another jump in level. From the strength of the fifth level of the elementary realm, it crossed into the sixth level of elementary profound realm. Yani's jaw dropped wide open from shock. Even with a mental state that was built from two lifetimes, he still could almost not accept this advancement in profound energy that could even shock the world. Not even half a minute had passed and his profound strength actually crossed from the fourth level of elementary profound realm into the sixth level of elementary profound realm. Not only had this sort of thing never been encountered before, but even just hearing it was also improbable. It was so much to take in that he had a feeling that it was all just a dream. The jumping of two ranks was still not the end. The crimson flames on Yani's body was still slowly rising and neared a few dozen meters in height. The surrounding ground also substantially sank, and streams of lava gathered under Yi's feet. However, it still didn't damage Yani in the slightest. The unknown source of profound energy was still madly pounding into his now crimson colored profound veins, filling it and making the strength of his profound energy explosively grow in a frightening manner. Elementary profound realm level 7. Elementary profound realm level 8. Elementary profound realm level 9. Elementary profound realm level 10. Jasmine, what exactly is going on here? Yani forcibly bit the tip of his tongue. This was already the third time he had to confirm whether or not he was dreaming. To him, these few short minutes were exactly like that of a dream. He didn't even have time to react to the mind-blowing shock he received when his profound strength had risen by two levels because afterwards his profound strength had frantically increased sharply directly into the 10th level of the elementary profound realm. Even for a genius that grew up in a major sect that had access to substantial amounts of resources and outstanding teachers, it would still take at least three years to reach the 10th level of elementary profound realm from the fourth level of elementary profound realm. Even Zia Kingu had used a total of 3 and 1/2 years of time to reach the 10th level of elementary profound realm from the fourth level of elementary profound realm. And that sort of time was already considered to be a once in a century's worth of opportunity in the small floating cloud city and was regarded as the number one talent of floating cloud city. Yet he spent not even 5 minutes. Not only did this smash through Yanchi's knowledge, it had thoroughly overthrown the basic rules and regulations of profound growth in the profound sky continent. As a result, even though Yani's heart brimmed with immense pleasant surprise, it also induced a greater amount of immense terror. Even more frightening was the fact that inflation of profound energy had not yet stopped and did not even slow down. The profound strength that had already achieved the 10th level of the elementary profound realm still continued to increase at a rapid pace. As expected, it really was correct. What you had just eaten was one of the five seeds left behind by the evil god. I had searched around this blue wind empire for such a long time and was not able to find it. But you, who only possessed such an insignificant amount of strength, was unexpectedly able to bump into it and find it just by being reckless. Your luck is so good that lightning should strike you from the heavens. Jasmine's tone was somewhat filled with displeasure and irritation. This something seed of the evil god can even dramatically increase profound strength, Yani said with a face full of bewilderment. Perhaps the seed of the evil god had also carried a small portion of the evil god's power with it since it had now found the successor of the evil god's profound veins. Not only did it change your profound veins into one of the fire attribute, but it also granted you its power within at the same time. Don't fret. There are no negative side effects for this somewhat exaggerated growth of profound energy. Jasmine leisurely spoke. Change profound veins into the fire attribute. Bang. The sound of an immediate breakthrough of a barrier was felt through the depths of Yani's profound veins. At this time, the scarlet flames that had been igniting for quite a while now had finally died out. In that instant, Yani clearly felt that the entirety of his profound veins had undergone a subliminal change. It became more resilient, wider, and much more hotter. The profound energy inside was even more so, concentrated and dense to an unbelievable degree. Even his thoughts about this world had significantly changed as his eyes cleared and his hearing sharpened. This in-n-out pleasurable sensation that was like the shedding of an old body almost made him shout out in joy. Yani threw his head back and slowly exhaled. Then a profound strength that was stronger than his old one by who knows how many times suddenly passed through his body and emitted outwards. First level of the nent profound realm. Congratulations. Now that you've stepped into the nent profound realm, you can finally be considered to be a true profound practitioner. In this land, entering the naent profound realm at the age of 16 ought to be pretty average, right? Jasmine flatly stated. In this moment, the previous overwhelming shock, horror, and apprehension he had when stepping into the first level of the naent profound realm faded away without a trace. He lifted both his hands and then erected a finger. As he moved his thoughts, a very small flame ignited above the fingertip. The temperature of this flame was blazing hot, yet it didn't even burn or injure his skin in the slightest. As he looked at the cluster of fire that stayed ablaze because of his profound energy, he silently laughed. Was this considered to be the remedy that the heavens had given me, to let me spend a full 16 years as a only to then give back everything that ought to belong to me multiplicatively within this short time period of one day? As Yani silently inspected his center, he saw that his own profound veins had become a prominent crystalclear crimson color and was comparable to that of the purest of sculpted rubies. not only his profound veins, but even in his channels, plasma, and every single cell, did he discover an additional speck of a crimson colored element? Speaking of which, does that mean that I wouldn't need to worry about my body being burned ever again? Yani was aware of how universally shocking his words were. But this was nevertheless what his body and profound veins truly made him feel at this very moment. There's no mistake, Jasmine said in a peculiar voice. In the distant past, it is said that the evil god possessed the most formidable of elemental power within the spatial chaos. With only his profound strength, he had the ability to manipulate the elements in the natural world at will, and even so much that it was possible to change his profound energy into any kind of element at any time. In the memory imprint of that immortal drop of blood, it was clearly recorded that the five seeds the evil god had left behind contained the power source of his formidable power over the elements. In the event that these sources of power were to be obtained, not only would one be able to manipulate the corresponding element, but would furthermore have the ability to be unconditionally immune to said element. It is also because of this record that this princess did not use the evil god's immortal blood on herself, but instead brave the great danger of arriving on this continent in order to attempt to find the evil gods secret grounds mentioned in the memory imprint. This is due to the possibility of manipulating the elements. And even the lure of perfect elemental immunity was something that this princess is incapable of resisting. And because in this present, that's long after the complete fall of the true god. This kind of ability is truly in a sense a strength that opposes the heavens. Jasmine's voice suddenly became colder. At the same time, this is also a taboo in Pandora's box. Now that you've already opened this box, no one will know for sure what sort of chain reaction this immortal power of the gods would arouse when it reappears in this world. Perhaps you will suffer the wrath of heaven. Or perhaps it will bring about an infinite amount of disaster and calamity. Because once the secret on your body is exposed, there would be an innumerable number of people in this world who would want to kill you in order to seize the strength that could oppose the heavens. If it weren't for the intertwinement of our lives, even this princess would also want to kill you and take your power. Hey, don't go that far to scare me. Okay. Although I had suddenly entered the nent profound realm at last, it is still merely the nent profound realm. Not even mentioning that opposing the heavens thing. If a random profound beast hopped out here right now, it could casually exterminate me. Yani slightly shrank his neck to assume a scared expression. Although this was said directly out of his mouth from Jasmine's confirmation about his control over fire and the capability of being completely immune to fire, his inner heart became incapable of quieting down and shook for a very long time. To never be afraid of fire. This was indeed the ability that the gods of the legends were rumored to possess. Not even mentioning humans, even the powerful flame dragon that had been wiped out by Jasmine wouldn't be completely fearless against fire. For although it was of the fire attribute, if it encountered a more powerful flame higher than its own, it would still burn into complete nothingness. This princess is definitely not trying to scare you. So, by all means, do not become complacent just because your profound strength has sharply increased. You must quickly improve your strength to at least have enough power to protect yourself. Now that your profound strength has reached the naent profound realm. After that, you must further consolidate your present profound strength. So this princess can also begin to teach you a few profound skills that you may possibly be able to learn. Before then go take care of this flame dragon's body. To the present you, its carcass is a pile of enormous precious treasure. Jasmine's tone of voice still contained the same ice gold indifference as before and completely lacked any emotion. But when it entered Yani's ears, it made him feel as if it was not the same as before because he didn't feel any trace of disdain, contempt, or the occasional bored yet stiff tone in Jasmine's words, but instead sensed a faint bit of concern. The current Yanqi seemed to have been reborn a new, for even the sense of extreme weakness caused by the fatigue from blood loss seemed to have disappeared without a trace. He walked next to the corpse of the flame dragon, which had been split into four lumps, and hesitated, not knowing where to begin. Jasmine was right. The dead body of the flame dragon, to him, no. To anyone in the Blue Wind Empire, including all four major sects of the empire, was a huge pile of treasure. This was an emperor profound beast. Not only that, but a true dragon. Dragons were considered to be kings among beasts. For even between creatures of the same level, dragons would eclipse any other beasts in all aspects. Its hide, meat, blood, bones, horns, eyes, wings, and viscera were all considered to be treasures amongst treasures. The most powerful beings within the blue wind continent were of the emperor profound realm. In other words, it was possible that this flame dragon was very likely. The first emperor profound beast that had been slain since an innumerable amount of years. This meant that the true value of the flame dragon's corpse had shot up to an even more immeasurable height, especially its profound core. For a profound core of a sky profound dragon, the burning heaven sect had not hesitated to mobilize five great experts at the sky profound realm to hurriedly rush to this region from afar. As for the profound core of an emperor, profound dragon, not even they would dare have such an extravagant expectation. The flame dragon's body weighed at least hundreds of tons. Such an enormous body, even if it was divided into four pieces, were still each comparable to four small mountains. From the sky poison pearl, Yan Chen took out a dull, small dagger he' taken from the Xyro clan and cautiously probed the flame dragon's body. With a muffled sound, the blade bent backwards and left behind nothing more than a superficial line. How could it be possible for Yani to cut this flame dragon's body that couldn't be cut by the burning Heaven clan sky profound experts burning heaven blade with a common little dagger. However, this body that was tough to this terrifying degree was previously supplemented with the flame dragon's tyrannical strength in a blink of sundered into four pieces by Jasmine. in the blink of an eye, sundered into fourths by Jasmine. As Yanqi recalled the previous scene before him, he could not help but shudder. Even if Jasmine's cultivation began from the womb, she was still 13 or 14 years old. How exactly was it possible that she had already reached such a frightening level? In front of Jasmine, Blue Wind Empire's various peerless geniuses wouldn't even be considered to be specks of dust. Its skin and flesh is not something that you can cut open. However, the location of its profound core ought to have already been sliced open by this princess. You should search the tip of the cerebral vertebrae. Jasmine's voice sounded in Yani's mind. Yani put away the dagger and headed toward the location Jasmine had pointed out. On the crosssection of the flame dragon's bloody corpse, he caught a glimpse of an incomparably dazzling scarlet light. This is Yani promptly leapt forward and his hand precisely grabbed onto that speck of scarlet light. Upon landing, his hand had an additional round bead that was around 1-third the size of his palm, the flame dragon's profound core. This was an item that would set the entire Blue Wind continent into a frenzy. However, it was completely useless to the current Yanunchi. Because if Yani dared to refine and absorb its power right now, there could only be one outcome: death by bodily explosion. After obtaining the profound core, he could do nothing else about the remaining parts of the flame dragon and could only move everything into the sky poison pearl. Not only were spatial rings extremely expensive in the profound sky continent, they usually had the storage space of a few cubic meters, which made it fundamentally impossible to store the flame dragon's corpse. However, inside the sky poison pearl was an unlimited amount of space. Even if the flame dragon's corpse was 10 times larger, he would still be able to effortlessly store it inside. Seeing that Yani had finished cleaning up the flame dragon's corpse, Jasmine said with a serious tone, "Within the next month, you are not to leave the Scarlet Dragon mountain range." "In this Scarlet Mountain mountain range, you are required to kill at least five common beasts of the ninth rank or a nent profound beast of the first rank every single day. Furthermore, do not try to attempt another breakthrough during this time period, but instead maximally stabilize your current profound power. Yes, Yani nodded. To suddenly jump from the fourth rank of the elementary profound realm to the first rank of the nent profound realm, he indeed required some time to adjust and stabilize the spike in profound power. Speaking of which, did you say that you'll teach me profound skills? With your current profound power, there is only one profound skill this princess can teach you. What is it? Star god's broken shadow. Jasmine slowly set out the name. This is a profound movement skill, and its primary stage can be activated with the least amount of profound energy. Profound movement skill. Yani was somewhat disappointed. Are there no profound skills for attacking? Out of all the profound attacking skills in this princess possession, there is not one the current you is capable of learning. Even though Star God's Broken Shadow is only a profound movement skill, you definitely shouldn't look down on it. If Star God's Broken Shadow is put to use, your speed will instantaneously explode and become so fast that even your after image wouldn't have enough time to fade away. If you are able to master the primary stage of Star God Broken Shadow, then you wouldn't lose when facing against two opponents of the same rank. If you can achieve the pinnacle of this skill, even if the opponents are over three or five levels higher than you, they still wouldn't be able to easily defeat you. Jasmine's last sentence instantly made Yan Cheese blood boil. Also, it is this princess one and only profound movement skill. What was Jasmine's current level? The strength of her one and only profound movement skill was obvious. Yani immediately nodded, "Yes, I'll learn. Um, let's<unk>t start right away." Jasmine did not refuse and faintly stated, "If your perception is high enough, you can learn Star God's Broken Shadow in 3 months. But if your perception is insufficient, you will not be able to learn it in your entire lifetime. Whether or not you are able to master it and to what extent shall be up to your own power of understanding." Now, this princess spiritual health is poor and must quickly return to the sky poison pearl to recover. This princess will first tell you how to activate Star God's Broken Shadow and explain its main aspects. After that, it will be up to you. Yes. Yi earnestly nodded. He in place and and began to earnestly listen to Jasmine's every word. The nearby residents and the profound beasts of this area did not dare approach the flame dragon cave, and those people from the Burning Heaven clan had already been scared out of their wits, and it was even more impossible for them to return. Therefore, Yani did not have to worry about being disturbed in this place. Star God's Broken Shadow. This was the very first profound skill Yani would learn in this world. Only the current hymn was completely unaware of what the two words, Star God, truly implied. Scarlet Dragon Mountain Range one month later. It had just recently rained. The atmosphere was fresh and moist. Droplets of water still hung on the leaves and branches. At this moment, the stirring of the underbrush scared away the birds on the ground. As the bushes parted, an ash gray wolf as tall as a man appeared with ferocious eyes and slowly moved about. It was a nent, profound beast of the first rank. In the scarlet dragon mountain range, it was considered a menace, and elementary profound beasts did not dare to enter its territory. Suddenly, a prey appeared in its line of sight. It was a youth dressed in black. He continued to walk towards this direction with a smile on his face as if he was completely unaware of the gaze of those dreadful eyes. Step by step, he drew closer and closer. Woo! The grey wolf silhouette shot out from the bush like lightning. Its explosive speed was truly frightening. Even if it were a profound practitioner in the true profound realm, it was nearly impossible to evade the grey wolf surprise attack. As its target came closer and closer to the grey wolf's line of sight, its teeth were already aimed at its targets throat and prepared to ferociously bite down. Bang. However, what caught the grey wolf offguard was the fact that although it definitely reached the human's body and was about to pin him down on the floor to bite at the throat. Instead, its own body passed through the youth's body and slammed into the ground. Only then did the image of the youth disappear. Then a fist filled with profound energy struck from the right side of the grey wolf and ruthlessly smashed the top of its head. It died with a blood curdling screech as blood oozing out of its orififices. With not even a single glance at the reckless grey wolf, Yani dusted his hands and continued to walk forward. Jasmine could not help but state. To unexpectedly complete the first stage of the star god's broken shadow within this span of just one month. Your previous 16 years of being a was truly a waste of your comprehension. She had originally thought that it would take Yan Chi at least 3 months to somewhat master the first stage, but never would have thought that he would completely perfect the first stage within just 1 month and was even able to freely utilize it. New Moon City located in the central eastern area of the Blue Wind Empire with a scale more than 10 times larger than Floating Cloud City. Small sects and clans were established throughout the city like trees in a forest. The Blue Wind Imperial family had also set up an Imperial Profound Government here, and even XYO sect and burning heaven clan had branch sex in this location. Thus, countless young profound practitioners rushed in from every direction in hopes of the fortunate possibility that they may join the major sects while pursuing the way of the profound. On this day, from the eastern side of the New Moon City gate, a youth dressed in black attire slowly walked up. He appeared to only be 16 or 17, and there was still some immaturity left on his features. However, his gaze was weighty and profound, and his complexion carried a resolute determination and indifference that was incompatible with his age. His progressive strides were very slow, and every step left a shallow print onto the solid ground along with a stream of startling sweat drops. The distance between Cyan Forest Town and New Moon City was a total of 350 km, and Yani had been walking for over a month. It wasn't because he did not want to arrive sooner, but because he simply could not walk any faster. On the day that he set off from Cyan Forest Town, Jasmine had asked him to find a heavy object that was more than 200 kg. But Yani was even more brutal on himself. He spent all of his remaining yellow profound coins and directly bought a chunk of pig iron that weighed 330 kg from the smithy in San Forest Town. Afterwards, Yani prepared rations and departed Cyan Forest Town. He didn't buy a profound horse, but rather traveled by foot. With this chunk of pig iron weighing 330 kilos strapped onto his back. If it was for a profound practitioner at the true profound realm, this weight wasn't considered to be much. However, for a profound practitioner at the naent profound realm, this was definitely not a weight that could be easily ignored. The first day that Yani had carried the pig iron, every single step he took would consume a large amount of profound energy. At the same time, his shoulders would be in unbearable pain, and his spine seemed like it would at break any time. After walking for 400 steps, all of his profound energy would be completely expended. His entire body would be pressed onto the ground by the pig iron. And he would also be unable to stand back up for a long time. But after a slight recovery, he continued to march onwards and carried that chunk of pig iron without the slightest intention of stopping. Just like that, Yani walked the entire 350 km. For food, he had his unchanging dried rations and the low-level profound recovering pellets he made. while his drink was the water he prepared at the waterfall from the Scarlet Dragon mountain range. The sweat drops he left behind during this entire journey, if merged, was enough to form into a decently sized stream. Yani's frightening willpower astonished Jasmine yet again. It was because throughout the entire journey, Yani had not put down the pig iron on his back even once. Even if he was completely exhausted and his back bled, his expression did not reveal the slightest hint of resignation, nor did he let out any sounds of painful suffering. Instead, he remained incomparably composed. 350 km from the difficult initial step to the gradual adaption later on after the process of exhausting and recovering again and again. For thousands of times, Yani's profound energy in his profound veins became even more thicker and richer. so much that there was an indication of another possible breakthrough half a month ago. However, Yani forcefully suppressed his profound powers breakthrough. Since the earlier increase of his profound strength was too fierce, it was necessary for him to adequately stabilize the profound energy while also allowing his body to completely adapt and control his profound power. On this day, New Moon City gate finally appeared in his line of sight. Finally arrived. As Yani strolled onward, the corner of his mouth formed a smile. The current you can undoubtedly achieve a perfect victory against any profound beasts of the same level. But in the end, profound beasts only have low intelligence and have very singular and boring attack patterns. If you want to become a legitimately strong practitioner, you'll need to battle more with people. Then let us start with this new moon city," Jasmine said as if she was an experienced elderly person. "Yes," as Yani nodded his head. His gaze contained no fear at all, but instead possessed an indistinct excitement and expectation. "Now put down the pig iron on your body. Your current body should be completely used to the huge growth spike of profound power. No, even if it had spiked up a few more levels, your body should still be able to endure it." Yani released the pig iron and dropped it down, causing it to smash a deep dent into the surface of the ground. At that instant, Yani felt that his body was so light that it seemed as if it didn't exist. He slightly channeled some energy and kicked under his foot. From this jump, he actually leapt over 16 straight meters. After firmly landing onto the ground, he swung his right hand. A crimson colored flame fiercely ignited from his right hand, then quickly extinguished, reignited, and extinguished again. He controlled it freely to his heart's content without any resistance. I'll tell you some good news. With your current body, you can barely endure the first stage of the evil gods seven gates. Which means you can now attempt to open the first gate when you meet an opponent that you can't defeat. I can open the first gate already. Yani's face was full of astonishment. Only barely. As a last resort, you can try to open it. With your current profound power and physique, it shouldn't cause any major danger to your life. However, I am unsure about whether or not it would cause any permanent damage. Before reaching the seventh level of nent profound realm, it's best to not use it recklessly. Jasmine spoke with warning words. Yani originally wanted to try to feel the sensation of opening the first gate and at the same time wanted to see how powerful the profound skills would be with the gate open. But after listening to Jasmine's words, he could only obediently put down that thought. If by chance his body couldn't endure and was injured permanently, that would certainly be a huge loss. As he walked closer to New Moon City, the thick and majestic city wall appeared in front of Yanchi with a wave of extremely oppressing force. Endless people flowed in and out under the towering city gate, displaying a bustle that would almost never occur in floating Cloud City. If one entered the streets of New Moon City and looked around, different styles of buildings and storefronts sprawled on without end. As crowds moved together, the waves of clamor were like the tide. It was exceedingly lively and bustling. In addition, regardless of gender or age, nearly everyone carried varied levels of profound energy. This is a large city after all. In comparison, Floating Cloud City only resembled a slightly large town. Yani sighed. Hello, the uncle over there. If I may ask, where is the location of the Black Moon Merchant Guild? Yani stopped a middle-aged man who looked to be relatively good-natured and politely asked him. Black Moon Merchant Guild? The man assessed Yani from head to toe. Although his ordinary attire and his overly young age made him a bit skeptical, he still extended his hand and pointed. Head west straight from here after crossing about seven streets. Turn right and keep walking. Then you'll arrive. However, young man, for a place like Black Moon Merchant Guild, no matter buying or selling, it is necessary to have a considerable capital. Yani nodded, said his thanks, and walked toward the direction he pointed to. After passing seven extremely long streets, he took a right turn. After continuously walking for another half a quarter of an hour, the flow of people suddenly decreased. Even the atmosphere had become quite different. A huge plaque embedded with a black waning moon appeared in Yanchi's line of sight. The four words black moon merchant guild were lined horizontally below the black moon. Although they were only four words, they carried an inexplicable deterrent force. It was different from the bustling and liveless on other streets. Not only were the amount of people that passes through very few, most of them also walked with hurried footsteps and with their mouths tightly closed, let alone being bustling, there weren't even anyone that spoke loudly, as if they were afraid to disturb something. This Black Moon Merchant Guild is really just as grandfather had described. Yani quietly muttered to himself. Black Moon Merchant Guild's headquarters was located in the greatest country in the profound sky continent, the Divine Phoenix Empire. Its branch guilds had reached every country and major city and was reputed to be the biggest merchant guild chain in the profound sky continent. Of course, the black moon merchant guild wasn't as simple as just a merchant guild. To make the black moon merchant guild dominate all of profound sky continent, one could imagine the degree of influence behind its back. When Xio li had talked about the Black Moon merchant guild earlier, he had very seriously mentioned that even the four major sects would never dare to be rash in the Black Moon merchant guild. The Black Moon merchant guild system was extremely stringent in transactions. They could almost achieve absolute fairness and would never be biased against anyone's side. However, the Black Moon Merchant Guild usually only deal in merchandise with a high enough grade and would never take even a glance at goods of a lower quality. After confirming the position of the Black Moon merchant guild, Yani went into a corner with no one around. He then took out a small bottle of medicinal powder he had refined earlier and quickly smeared it on his face. "What are you doing?" Jasmine curiously asked. Yani did not answer. After he lifted up his face again, the immature features had already disappeared, and what replaced it was the resolute and stern face of a middle-aged person. Even his gaze was filled with the vicissitude of life. He also rubbed small amounts of the medicinal powder onto his hands, which made them appear somewhat shriveled. Then he took out a cloak that appeared to be slightly worn out, switched out the black clothing he was wearing before, and took out a bamboo hat that covered a half of his face after being worn. You even know how to disguise? Jasmine yelled out in astonishment. For a doctor of miracles, being able to disguise is nothing. Yani had on a proud smile. Soon after, his entire face became stiff and ice cold, and even his voice turned horse. No matter where Black Moon merchant guild appears, it would always be the magnate of the merchant guilds in the area, unmatched by anyone. If it is a high enough grade, Black Moon Merchant Guild would buy and sell anything. There may even be pretty clothing for girls. Let's go in and take a look. As he mentioned the words pretty clothing for girls, Yani clearly heard Jasmine let out the faint chirp sound of bird. For commoners, they would all hold a sense of deep reverence toward the Black Moon merchant guild. When they passed by this place, they would all quickly walk past and did not dare to make any movements that could possibly offend the Black Moon merchant guild. Yani's bizarre appearance had attracted many people's attention. But when they saw him calmly and readily walk into the Black Moon Merchant Guild, their gazes that looked at Yani also filled with a little bit of reverence. To have the capital to trade inside Black Moon Merchant Guild, one would undoubtedly be a person of great importance. The interior of the Black Moon Merchant Guild was very spacious, and its silence carried a kind of looming pressure. If normal people walked inside, they would all be constrained by the atmosphere to the point of not being able to breath. A top the enormous cargo shelves, there was a dazzling assortment of merchandise. Medicinal ingredients, pellets, weapons, armors, gems, lowrank profound beast cores, and even low rank profound skills. It had everything, but unquestionably none of the things being sold here were inexpensive. Some may be impossible for a regular family to purchase, even with a lifetime's worth of savings. There was a 30-something yearear-old man standing behind the counter inside the Black Moon merchant guild. Even though Yani had entered with this strange disguise, he only glanced at him and asked, "Buying or selling?" Yani went straight to the point, raising his right hand to place three scarlet-colored pills on top of the counter. He coldly said, "Three fire spirit pills. Make an offer." These three fire spirit pills were made by refining the fire spirit grass Yani had collected from the flame dragon's cave. Fire spirit pill. The clerk's rigid face finally made a small expression as he picked up one of the pills and lightly stroked it. Suddenly, his complexion changed and was barely able to let out his voice. 10 10th rank fire spirit pill. In order to synthesize a medicine pill, it had to pass through the required harvesting of ingredients, looking through the storage, selecting the correct refining tools, proper heat control, and a crucial refining skill. So, it was normal for the potency of the medicinal power to be reduced during this whole process. During the refining process, even for an high-level pharmacist, it was practically impossible to avoid losing some of the medicinal power. Therefore, a pill of the sixth rank was already considered a top grade item. A pill of the seventh or eighth rank was rare and was already considered to be the highest quality. A top-notch pharmacist belonging to one of the major sects might be able to produce a pill of the ninth rank, but it would be considered a peerless item. As for a 10th ranked pill, even for a first rate pharmacist, to come across one would be one in a 10,000. The higher the potency of the medicine pill, the higher the price and the faster the body would be able to naturally refine it. The price of an eight ranked pill would be double of the price of a seventh ranked pill. But for a ninth ranked pill, it would almost be impossible to be found on the market. These were usually kept by the major sex for use for their core disciples or used to offer tribute. As for a 10th ranked pill, it was also rarely seen even in the profound sky continent's black moon merchant guild. If only one of the pills was 10th ranked, it would be nothing much. But the clerk stared with wide eyes when he realized that all three of the fire spirit pills were of the 10th rank. Fire spirit grass was already hard to find, but it was also very difficult to refine it into a fire spirit pill. As for it being of the 10th rank, he had never even heard of one before. He could only imagine what would happen if a profound practitioner practicing in the fire arts were to set their eyes on these three fire spirit pills. They would most likely covet it with eyes popping out. "Make an offer," Yani coldly said again. The clerk finally snapped out of it and quickly brought out a black wooden box and placed the three fire spirit pills into it to prevent the medicinal energy from dispersing. His expression was now a bit more respectful as he faced Yani. These were three fire spirit pills of the 10th rank and were actually brought out to be sold for money. Black moon merchant guild usually had an air of arrogance, but anyone would be able to tell that this person was definitely of great importance. The clerk courteously said, "These three fire spirit pills of the 10th rank are the best of the best. As for the price, I will give you a 100 purple profound coins each. Therefore, how about 300 purple profound coins total?" Yani was silent for a while. Since Yani was silent for quite some time, the clerk began to panic in fear. He carefully took note of the situation. If the price was not satisfactory, he would not hesitate to increase it. These three fire spirit pills of the 10th rank, each one would without a doubt obtain a sky-high price. If sold to any one of those major sects of the profound sky continent that practiced in the fire attribute, how was he supposed to know Yani was silent? Not because of the low ball offer, but was immediately taken aback by the offered price. 300 purple profound coins. Holy crap. That was a whole 3 million yellow profound coins. It was equivalent to a century's worth of income from an average family. On the Azure cloud continent during the times he followed his master around, his master refined medicine to save lives, and never once did he charge a single coin. After the death of his master, he had only used the sky poison pearl to refine medicine pills for himself to use in order to increase his strength. Therefore, he had no concept of the actual market price or value of each medicinal pill. He had originally thought selling a fire spirit pill for one purple profound coin would have already been pretty good. After selling three, he would have enough to live extravagantly for a short while. But he never expected he would be offered 300 purple profound coins. He was stupified. These medicine pills were unexpectedly quite valuable. On the profound sky continent, good medicinal pills were ridiculously expensive because high-grade medicine pills were used for profound cultivation. It was a shortcut to increase one's profound energy. Many painstakingly years of cultivation could not compare with just being able to intake a medicinal pill. His continued silence made the clerk nervously state, "If you are still unsatisfied with the price, then before even letting him finish, Yani exclaimed, "Deal." For his offer to be immediately accepted, the clerk could not hide his delight. Because even if one was priced to be sold for a thousand purple profound coins, any of those major sex would easily fight over it. He quickly gathered the fire spirit pills and turned around. After a while, he brought out a shiny violet card presented to Yani and stated, "This is your profound currency card. Please accept it. If you require anything else, you are always welcomed at our Black Moon merchant guild." This violet profound currency card held the coins inside it. Yani decided to inspect its content and found not a single coin less. It was exactly 300 purple profound coins. Yani has never had this much money in his entire life. His entire savings for the past 16 years could only amount to a little more than a thousand yellow profound coins. 300 purple profound coins. How long would it take to spend all of it? If little aunt saw this, she would definitely be shocked. After putting the profound currency card away, Yani did not immediately leave. He used his right hand to again put something on the counter and coldly said, "A profound core, your offer." After placing the scarlet-colored profound core on the counter, Yani heard Jasmine's questioning voice in his head. "What are you doing? You want to sell it? Are you crazy?" Yani promptly replied, "No, no, of course I'm not selling it. You don't have to worry. I just want to scare them a little so that in the future it would be more convenient for me to do business here." Jasmine did not respond. Profound core. The clerk suspiciously picked it up. Members of the Black Moon merchant guild, even of the lowest rank, still had the ability to be an astonishing person. However, he was still unable to determine which beast this profound beast core came from. He picked up the profound core and gently caressed it. Soon after, his complexion suddenly changed. His eyes opened wide as he raised both trembling hands. This, this, this, this, this, dragon, dragon core. Not only that, it's an emperor profound dragon core. Humph fussing over nothing. Quickly make an offer, Yani said impatiently. The clerk placed the profound core back onto the counter, afraid to pick it up again. His view of Yani had completely changed from before. It was a difference of heaven and earth. He politely said, "Esteemed customer, please, please wait a moment. For such an important matter, this little one here does not have the authority to make the decision." At this point, he turned around and shouted towards the floor above. "Elder Puh, come quickly. It's an important business matter. Quick. Not long after, a petite elderly man appeared at top the staircase and slowly walked down. Even though the staircase was made of wood, his steps did not make the typical creaking noise one would make. His pair of eyes were gentle yet full of vitality. His name was Puhi, known to everyone in New Moon City as the manager of this Black Moon merchant guild branch. Important business matter. Puhi calmly yet proudly walked over and subtly glanced at Yani. Elder Puh, come, come look. The clerk picked up the profound core with trembling hands and presented it to Puhi. Puhi glared at him and displeasingly said, "Humph, get a hold of yourself. How can you let such a small profound core put you in this state? Could it be that this is a sky profound core? Look at you. People will start to think that our black moon merchant guild is lacking." Puh he lectured with an icy glare as he took the profound core. In that instant, he suddenly stopped talking as his hands slightly trembled. He quickly brought it closer to his eyes and carefully used a bit of his profound energy to examine it. His body trembled as his beard perked up and cried out with a voice an octave higher than the clerks. Emperor Profound Dragon core. The clerk secretly gave him a look. Just a moment ago, you lectured me, but you yelled out louder than I did. Humph. A mere emperor profound core has already gotten you guys to cause such a fuss. Black Moon Merchant Guild is truly promising. Puh he was extremely shocked when he heard this statement said by a cold husky voice. He promptly hid his expression, looked at Yanqi, and earnestly sized him up. He carefully placed the flame dragon's core back onto the counter and respectfully asked. Esteemed customer, would it be possible to tell us your honorable name? When he first came down, he had only glanced at Yani. Upon seeing the zombie-like face, he had only snorted in disdain because who in New Moon City would dare to be cocky in his Black Moon merchant guild. But now, Puhi thought the way Yani looked was perfectly normal. A person who was capable of obtaining an emperor profound dragon core, what kind of existence was he? What use would he have for a small town's Black Moon merchant guild? When he studied this middle-aged man earlier, he had been shocked because this person possessed extremely sharp and keen eyes. With such eyes, it would be impossible to hide anything in front of this man. Yani squinted his eyes with a cold demeanor. Asked, "Your Black Moon merchant guild just conducts business transactions. When did it add on a new rule of asking for someone's name?" In that split second, Pu he felt a hint of killing intent. Although it was only for a brief moment, it still made all the hair on his body stand up. He himself had killed many people in this lifetime and had been through many near-death experiences as well. So he was very easily able to understand and sense killing intent. But in his entire life, he had never felt such a terrifying killing intent from a moment ago. He could not even image how many people one would have to kill to obtain such a terrifying killing aura. 10,000. 100,000 or possibly. A number that would scare even ghosts. A million. Perhaps the killing intent of a hell user in legends would not possibly compare to this. Puhi's heart rate jumped up as he broke out in a cold sweat. Of all the years he had been in New Moon City, this was the very first time he'd ever broken out in cold sweat. A deathly pale face with a terrifying murderous aura. He was even able to take out an emperor profound core as if it was nothing. Exactly what realm was this person in? This murderous aura perhaps killing people was something he casually did. Then if someone were to annoy him at this point, Puhi's back was soaked with cold sweat. He lowered his head and respectfully answered, "No, no, please don't mind Puhi. In the presence of one who is able to kill an emperor profound beast, nevertheless an emperor profound true dragon, one can only be admired and be unrivaled. Puh he couldn't hold back his admiration and let his tongue slip. He really wanted to know the rank of this terrifying person. But even if he was given even more courage, he would still not dare to test Yanchi's level of profound power." "Humph!" Yani coldly snorted. After the murderous aura had dispersed, Pui was finally able to let out a sigh of relief and politely asked, "An emperor profound core is an immeasurable treasure, not to mention New Moon City. Even in all of Blue Wind Empire, one would only appear once in a century. Why would our esteemed customer would want such a treasure to be sold?" "It's useless to me," Yani nonchalantly stated. "Useless to him." Puhi<unk>s heart skipped a beat. Even an emperor profound core was easily dismissible. Exactly what realm was this person in? Puh he bitterly smiled and said, "Esteemed customer, although this pooh greatly desires this emperor profound dragon core, I do not want to hide the fact that this is an extremely valuable item. So its value is simply incalculable. Even if this pooh offered you the value of this black moon merchant guild's branch, it may still only be worth 1if of this emperor profound dragon's core. However, if a steamed customer is set on selling it, it would be better to go to our Black Moon merchant guild branch located in Blue Wind Imperial City. They will definitely be able to offer you a price that is to your satisfaction, stated Puhi as he carefully picked up the Emperor Profound Dragon core and placed it in front of Yani. Yani silently took back the profound core without the slightest change in facial expression. He did not leave immediately but suddenly asked, "What kind of person is Sikkong Han?" This question startled Puhi, but he politely replied, "In New Moon City, this Puh only knows of one called Sikkong Han. He is the great elder of the New Moon profound palace appointed here by the imperial family. He is an upright individual with a very high standing in New Moon City. Is there some kind of relationship between esteemed customer and Sikong Han? Humph. Yani just snorted without even a reply, turned and started to leave. At this moment, Jasmine suddenly voiced out mentally, "Don't leave. This princess wants that red one. Buy it. Buy it. Buy it." Yan Chi stopped in his tracks, turned back around, and looked in the direction of what Jasmine was talking about. Towards the top left of the enormous shelf full of goods, he saw a dark red dress. It was a small yet exquisite dress that was clearly made for a young lady. He pointed at the dress and asked with oblique eyes, "How much?" Yani, stopping and suddenly coming back, startled Puhi. He promptly looked at the dress and politely answered, "Esteemed customer. You may not know this, but this smoky red fairy dress is made for girls under 14 years of age. It is rather small and may not be suitable for your wife." Yani rolled his eyes and coldly replied, "Daughter, Jasmine, number%," Pui promptly explained. This smoky red fairy dress was made with heavenly silk chiffon and embroidered with 81 blood red crystal tassels. Not only is its luster breathtaking, it can ward off evil spirits and is quite delicate to the touch. In the entire New Moon City, this is the one and only available. Therefore, it is somewhat expensively priced at 500 purple profound coins. Yani's outer appearance remained quite calm, but his heart felt like it had just been trampled by a few thousand galloping mudgrass horses. Of course, Yani knew what blood red crystals were. Not only were their color radiant, when worn on the body, it could help regulate blood flow and ward off evil spirits. Therefore, it was quite expensive. But this fairy dress had rows of glistening tassels, and all of them were blood red crystals, all 81 of them. and its value was unexpectedly priced as high as 500 purple profound coins. At first, getting a hold of 300 purple profound coins was like getting rich overnight for Yanqi, and he hadn't even thought about how he would spend it. Who would have thought that he could not even afford to buy a single girl's dress? This shrewd Black Moon merchant guild, when it came to selling, they were definitely not playing around. Before coming to New Moon City, he had already promised Jasmine multiple times that he would buy her the finest of clothes. But the very first piece that caught her attention was this. Seeing Yani's predicament, Pui did not even hesitate as he reached for the smoky red fairy dress, placed it in front of Yani, and said while smiling, "When esteemed customer brought the emperor profound dragon core here, "You had already been quite considerate of us. But this Pooh's little store's financials were truly lacking and has inconvenienced you. this smoky red fairy dress. Please accept this gift as an apology and pu he swallowed and cautiously said, "Take this chance to become friends." Even for this small branch of the Black Moon merchant guild, 500 purple profound coins was by no means a small amount. But if they were able to make a good impression on this great individual and create even a small favorable relationship, it would absolutely be worth it. Yani was silent for a moment, then picked up the smoky red fairy dress and slowly turned to leave as he made a short statement. I will remember this favor. As Yani disappeared from his line of sight, Puh he finally let out a sigh of relief as he subconsciously wiped the sweat off his forehead. The clerk who did not dare to make a single sound finally walked over and whispered, "Elder Puh, when did New Moon City have such a person of this magnitude? He even had an emperor profound core. This this earlier when I realized it was an emperor profound core, my heart almost stopped from the shock. If news of the emperor profound dragon core was to spread, the entirety of New Moon City, no experts from all over would flock here to New Moon City. And after speaking to this point, the clerk just shuddered. You fool. Pui glared at him. How can that person be from New Moon City? If there was such a person here in New Moon City, wouldn't we know? Furthermore, he has an emperor profound dragon core and wanted to sell it. It's obvious it means nothing to him. This person's profound realm should be beyond the scope of our understanding. Do you really think he would be afraid of those who would come after his emperor profound dragon core? But when he first came in and I probed his profound strength, how come I only sensed that he was only at the first rank of the nent profound realm? You're still too young, Puh. He patted him on the shoulder and earnestly said, "A person who is able to kill an emperor profound beast, there's no way you would be able to sense what profound realm he was in. Once you're at his level, one can easily hide their profound aura, not to mention lowering it to the nent profound realm. It wouldn't be odd if they lowered it to the elementary profound realm. So, the next time you come across someone who seems to be of a lower profound realm, especially if they're not young, you absolutely cannot be hottie because they might actually be in top-notch expert. Ooh. The clerk nodded and brought out the black wooden box used to hold the fire spirit pills and said, "Elder Puh, I almost forgot, but before he brought out the profound core, there were these three fire spirit pills. Also, these three fire spirit pills are all of the 10th rank. What?" the startled Puh. He immediately picked up the three fire spirit pills and spoke with a trembling voice. To be able to create 10th ranked medicine pills, only those first rate pharmacists from the top major sects are able to accomplish it. This person must be from a place at the same level of the sanctuary or the ocean palace. No wonder he had such a terrifying killing aura. When recalling the killing intent that made all of his hair stand up, Pui shuddered. He was quite relieved that the previous situation was handled properly. On top of that, they had actually gained a bit of favor. After Yani left the Black Moon merchant guild, he walked a considerable distance before finding an uninhabited area. He quickly changed his clothes, removed the disguise on his face, and leisurely walked out in a different direction in which he came from. Then came the angry voice of Jasmine in his head. You dare say that this princess is your daughter? I had no other choice. Was I supposed to say I was buying it for my master? Yeah, that wouldn't do. Humph, I'll let it pass this time because this piece of clothing is really not bad. But if you ever dare to speak nonsense about this princess again, I'll definitely not show you any mercy. 500 purple profound coins. If I added up the value of all the clothes I had worn in two lifetimes, it still wouldn't add up to the value of a piece of this dress. Yani barked back. This princess granted you new profound veins and even became your master. To this day, I've only wanted this 500 purple profound coins worth of an item, and you're already complaining. Yani was speechless. You really were too bold earlier and went as far as letting them get a hold of the profound core. Aren't you afraid that they would kill you for it? This princess can't even use a bit of her profound energy right now. If they decided to act, not only would we lose the profound core, we'd lose our lives as well. Jasmine coldly exclaimed. No, it's the opposite. Yani laughed. The more arbitrarily I leave the profound core in their hands, the more afraid they'll be to try anything devious. Even if they did sense my profound strength, it would only cause them to become more cautious. As for whether they'd spread this information, that's their own business, and I could care less. But if I had to guess, there's a 90% chance that they won't. Today, this princess has finally seen what false bravado was. However, by doing this, what are you really up to? In the entire profound sky continent, the one with the most resources and connections is the Black Moon merchant guild. As for the truly good items, they will inflate the price and only sell them to the major sects. For a person like me, even if I was wealthy, they still wouldn't sell to me. Therefore, I had to make a strong impression and establish myself in their eyes. In any case, having this emperor profound dragon core along with my disguise, I could easily accomplish this. like this, it'll be more convenient to deal with the Black Moon merchant guild in the future. Oh. Oh, not even speaking of the future. Didn't it already work just earlier? Everyone in the Black Moon merchant guild is quite arrogant. If I hadn't scared them just now, would they have eagerly taken the initiative to gift this smoky red fairy dress to me? Oh, right. The Udumbara flower and even the purple veined god crystals that you need. The Black Moon merchant guild also has the highest probability of having it. Jasmine was silent for a while before suddenly asking, "Earlier in the Black Moon merchant guild, what's with the murderous aura that came from you?" That split second of killing intent had even shocked Jasmine. It was a kind of murderous aura that could almost solidify and was not a bit inferior to her own murderous aura. This kind of murderous aura could not be cultivated, nor could it be faked. Only through taking innumerable number of lives would one slowly accumulate it. But a murderous aura to be at this bone chilling level, at least hundreds of thousands or even millions of lives had to to be taken. That split second of killing intent had even caused enough fear for Puhi, who was at the earth profound realm to suffocate. Otherwise, for people of Puhi<unk>s level, with their years of experience and keen eyes, it wouldn't be guaranteed that they wouldn't doubt Yani. Yani paused for a while and spoke with melancholy. If I told you, you definitely wouldn't believe me. But we are truly alike. Aside from the Imperial capital in Blue Wind Imperial City, there was a total of 72 other cities with profound palaces appointed by the Imperial family. New Moon City was one of those cities, and its New Moon profound palace was ranked among the best. In addition, the requirement to get accepted into the palace wasn't considered high, or at least was much lower than those slightly famous middle-leveled sects. Therefore, countless profound practitioners tried to seek admittance every year. The new moon profound palace in New Moon City had established the profound department, medicine department, literature department, music department, art department, etc. for a total of 13 departments. So, it was only natural the area that the palace occupied would be huge. Sikong Han, whom Yani was searching for, was also the head elder of the New Moon Profound Palace, and his position was second only to the three palace chiefs. However, even Xio was not aware of Sikong Han's identity in New Moon City. After asking around, Yani quickly arrived at New Moon Profound Palace's location. As he was hesitating on whether or not he should enter, an exaggerated voice suddenly came from his left. BBB, brother-in-law. This voice stunned Yani for a moment. He turned around and bewilderedly looked at the imposing man in front of him. Ano, it was a youth. When seeing his figure, no one would believe that he was only a youth of 15. With a height of over 2 m and 20 or 30 cm, his entire body was even more shockingly burly. Blocks of muscles were stacked up high. And just by standing there, he looked like a small mountain. "You, why are you here?" Yani said with a completely astonished face. This astonishingly burly youth was actually Zia King<unk>s little brother and his only best friend from a young age, Zeia Yuanba, brother-in-law, it really is you. Seeing Yani's face, Zia Yuanba's voice grew somewhat louder as he rushed over with a face that brimmed with surprise and joy. As he ran over, even the ground slightly quivered. If one saw Zia Yuan's posture, it looked as if he may be coming in for a bare hug. Yani could not help but feel his scalp go numb and unconsciously took two steps back. If he was hugged like this, suffering a bone fracture would be considered as getting off light. "Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop!" Yani quickly waved his hands, stopping the excited Zia Yuan, who'd almost hugged him. He then looked at him from head to toe and asked again, "Yuana, why are you here in this place? I should be the one asking brother-in-law this question." Zia Yuanba's face flushed with excitement. Half a year ago, I heard you were driven out of your clan. I searched for you for many days, but I still failed to find you. Few, it's really good that you're all right. I thought that something had happened to you and couldn't sleep peacefully at all during these past 6 months. Zia Yuanba's surprise and concern came entirely from the bottom of his heart. In this world, apart from Xoli and Xolini, the only person who cared about him was his childhood friend Zia Yuan. With his heart greatly moved, Yani stepped forward and patted his robust arm. Rest assured, my life is awfully tough. How could anything happen to me? Being driven out of the Xyro clan was actually a good thing. The outside world is much more wonderful than the floating cloud city that we spent 10 or so years of our lives in. These past 6 months, I've been continuously walking west from floating cloud city. And it was only today that I arrived at New Moon City. For you to be here, don't tell me. Yani looked to the side and glanced at New Moon Profound Palace's large and eye-catching signboard. He he brother-in-law really is smart. I've currently entered the New Moon Profound Palace. As he spoke about the New Moon Profound Palace, Yuan's face expressed a hint of pride. I had already came here 6 months ago and I've also entered the profound department's class 1. Class one. Is it hard to enter this class? Listening to Zia Yuan's tone, this class one seemed to be very amazing. Of course, Zia Yuanba nodded and boastfully said, "Class one is taught by profound departments great elder himself. The requirements to enter the class one is the highest. You must either have enough talent or he he have sufficient connections." Yani remembered that 6 months ago, Zia Yuanbo was at the fourth level of elementary profound realm. At this age, that level could only be regarded as mediocre and not even a dime of good enough talent, which meant that it could only be the latter. Yani asked with a face full of suspicion. Your family has a relationship with the New Moon Profound Palace. Zia Yua answered with an embarrassed laugh. Oh, as a matter of fact, when my grandfather was young, he would often visit New Moon City and made a really good friend here. That friend later became one of the vice chiefs of New Moon Profound Palace. Therefore, not only did I not take the test to get into New Moon Profound Palace, but I also got into class one. Let's not talk about these things. Brother-in-law, were you always by yourself? Did you find a place to stay in New Moon City yet? What are you going to do from now on? Zia Yua asked in a somewhat anxious tone. His deep feelings of concern was exhibited through this question. He understood Yani all too well. Physique was only so, had never stepped outside a floating cloud city before reaching 16. And the most crucial point was that with his profound vain disability, it was fundamentally impossible for him to have the ability to defend himself. It was hard to not worry about him. Yani did not answer Zia Yua's question, but instead asked as he raised his head. The great elder you talked about that supervises class one. Is he called Sikong Han? His figure was not considered short, but standing in front of Zia Yuan, he almost felt like that he had just walked out of a Liipuchian nation. Hey, that's right. That's exactly Elder Sikkong. Brother-in-law, didn't you just arrive at New Moon City? How do you know about Elder Sikkong? Zia Yua asked whilst rubbing his head. He and my grandfather had a relationship. Before I left floating Cloud City, grandfather told me to come and find him. Yani said when he heard what Yani had said, Zia Yuan's eyes immediately brightened as he excitedly replied. That's great. Elder Sikong<unk>s prestige is very high in New Moon City, and he also treats others very nicely. If he and grandfather Xyro knows each other, perhaps he can arrange a place for you to stay. MN, it would be even better if he could arrange a place inside New Moon Profound Palace. Yani started to smile. Then take me to find him. Actually, Yani did not intend to stay in New Moon City for long because beneath the heavens, everywhere was his training ground. Only he was unwilling to abandon his grandfather's painstaking wish and also wanted to see if he could get some sort of opportunity from Sikong Han. Oh, okay. Zia Yuanba immediately nodded. Then his expression suddenly paused a bit as he reached out his hand to scratch his ears. But it's not definite that you'll be able to see him today because today just happens to be the new palace chief's appointment day and there's still a congratulatory feast in the evening. I heard that all of New Moon City's well-known sects and clans with influence will all be there. Elder Sikong should be busy preparing for it. Yani thought for a bit and said, "So, it's like this. Let's still go and visit him. It's best if we can get to see him, and if we couldn't manage see him, then we<unk>ll put it off for tomorrow." "Oh, okay." Immediately, Zia Yuana brought Yani and walked toward the New Moon Profound Palace's main entrance. At the main entrance, the two were stopped. The young gatekeeper held out his arm in front of Yani and blocked him. "Non-disciples of the palace are not allowed to enter." Zia Yuanba quickly said, "Senior brotherh, he is my brother-in-law and has business with Elder Sikkong." The person that Yuanba called, "Senior brotherh had a solemn complexion and respectfully said, "Usually a palace disciple can bring one person inside, but not today. This evening is the congratulatory feast for the new palace chief's appointment. The elders are currently busy with many affairs, and it's inconvenient to meet guests. If you have any business, come back tomorrow." this. Zia Yuanba could only helplessly look at Yani. Yani deliberately took out the wooden tablet that grandfather had given him and said, "I wonder if this wooden tablet could possibly let me enter and see Elder Sikong right now." Senior Brotherhan casually glanced at the wooden tablet. As he was about to speak, his gaze suddenly snapped back onto the wooden tablet again and answered while knitting his brow. This is Elder Sukong Seven Profound Tablet. Oh, should have taken that out earlier. Please enter. When he finished speaking, he withdrew his extended arm, took a step back, and signaled Yani and Zia Yuana to come in. Yani only wanted to try it, but he didn't expect that it would actually succeed. After entering New Moon Profound Palace, Zia Yuanba said with an astonished face, "Brother, how do you have Elder Sikkong's seven profound tablet? Only the seven people closest to the elder have this. And with this tablet, you could be considered a person of the new moon profound palace and can freely enter the new moon profound palace as well. Sikong Han gave it to grandfather back then when they were young. Perhaps it's to help grandfather to find him with ease in the new moon profound palace. Yani interpreted. He then thought Sikong Han actually gave such a tablet to grandfather. It seems that back in those days, grandfather didn't grant him just any small kindness. Now, Zia Yuana brought Yani and directly walked toward the elders hall in New Moon Profound Palace. Along the way, he introduced New Moon Profound Palace and what he had experienced in the past 6 months to Yani. At this moment, Yani suddenly heard Jasmine's somewhat peculiar voice in his mind. This person is your friend. Yes. Are there any problems for Jasmine to actually ask about Zia Yuan? Y's heart bursted with surprise. How old? 15 and 1/2. 15 and 1/2 years old. Jasmine pondered for a second, then said with a low voice. This person actually possesses the tyrannical emperor's divine veins. Tyrannical emperors. Divine veins? Yani's footsteps paused, frowning. What do you mean? His profound veins are very special. His vein width is more than twice that of ordinary people. And even the structure is quite different. These profound veins are known as the tyrannical emperor's divine veins. Even in the divine well, in short, it is an extremely rare profound vein. If it were in the place where I was born, people who have this profound vein would inevitably dominate a region and be appointed as an emperor. But for it to have appeared in this kind of place, what a wasted vein. The reason why his veins are excessively large is also because of his tyrannical emperor's divine veins. with these veins. While it's not obvious at the elementary profound realm, once he steps into the naent profound realm and his profound power matures, he would have to put in at least 10 times the effort of ordinary people for every level after. Also, throughout his entire lifetime, he can only progress up to nent profound realm and will never break through into true profound realm. Yani, brother-in-law, we're here. Even though Yani wanted to continue to question, Zia Yuanba had already pulled him in front of the elders hall. I'll go see if Elder Sikong is here. As Zia Yuanba was just about to knock, the door suddenly opened by itself and a man that looked to be 40some years old who wore a dark-coled robe walked out. When seeing him, Zia Yuan quickly greeted him. Elder Sikkong, you're actually here. That's wonderful. This person was exactly the Sikong Han Yani was looking for even though he looked a bit younger than what Yani had imagined. After seeing Zia Yuan, he smiled gently. Oh, Yuanba, do you need anything from me? It's my brother-in-law. He has some business with you. Zia Yuan shifted his body, revealing Yani, who was completely blocked by his huge body earlier, to Sikong Han. Yani walked up and politely spoke. Elder Sikkong, Junior Yani came from floating Cloud City in the east. I wonder if Elder Sikong is still able to recall an old friend from floating cloud city named Xoli. Xoli? You said Xoli? Hearing this name, a reaction that exceeded Yani's expectations came from Sikong Han. In one fast step, he walked over and grabbed Yani's shoulder with both of his hands. Where is he? Could it be that he has come to New Moon City? Yani shook his head. No, right now, Grandfather is still in floating cloud city. I'm here to find you in accordance to grandfather's wish. After finished speaking, Yani took out the seven profound tablet and brought it in front of Sikong Han's eyes. Sigong Han picked up the tablet and let out a soft sad sigh. It's already been 7 years. These past years, I had always wanted to visit him in floating Cloud City, but I could never do so. I hope that this time I could at least slightly pay back his past kindness. After leading Yani and Zia Yuan into Elders Hall, Sikong Han sat down and carefully examined Yani. without the air of arrogance that a profound palace's great elder appointed by the imperial family should have. He instead asked with a look of concern, "You say your elder brother Xio<unk>'s grandson, yet how come your family name is Yan?" "That's right. That's right, brother-in-law. How come you referred to yourself as Yani? Is it possible that after you were able to locate your biological parents after being expelled from Xio Clan?" Zia Yuan hurriedly asked. Yani replied, "Junior is actually not grandfather's biological grandson. However, grandfather has raised me like one of his own for the past 16 years. Half a year ago, I was expelled from the Xio clan. And upon my departure, grandfather informed me that my family name was actually Yan." "So that's why" Sikgang Han slowly nodded and said, "Actually, I had already heard about this." Yani lifted his head with a face full of surprise. Sikong Han audibly sighed and continued. Half a year ago, the son of the Xio sex master, I remember his name, was Xioangjian, was on route from floating cloud city. They would, after all, have to come through New Moon City. Therefore, our new moon profound palace had to have paid a little bit of attention to this. Afterwards, we found out a bit of information. Now, this small bit of information would be irrelevant to most, but as it was related to elder brother Xio, I had to further investigate it. At once I found out he had been punished by his own clan to spend 15 years in the rear mountains and his grandson had also been expelled as well. There were numerous times I wanted to go and help elder brother Xio. It's just that as the great elder of New Moon Profound Palace, I couldn't just leave for a long period of time. Therefore, alas, there's no need for Elder Sikong to blame himself. If grandfather knew you had this sort of intention, I believe he would have certainly appreciated it. Yani courteously replied. Even though Sikong Han had not been able to take any sort of action, one could see he was sincerely worried about Xio Li's situation. That said, how did Elder Sikong meet grandfather in the past? Yani asked. He he. It was 7 years ago. I was on a trip to Floating Cloud City for a work-related matter and brought my 12-year-old son along, but an enemy of mine had found out and waited in ambush there. I was ambushed just when I was able to enter the city. I used all of my strength just to defend myself and had no time to attend to my son. Just when my son was about to be killed, elder brother Xio had appeared and saved my son's life. This Sikong Han only has one son, and if it wasn't for elder brother Xio, my family line would have ended right there with me. After all these years, I have never forgotten this kindness, nor have I found a way to repay it. Remembering this past event, Sikong Han sighed endlessly. He looked at Yani and praised. Speaking of which, you are truly worthy of being elder brother Xio<unk>'s grandson. To actually have broken through the elementary profound realm into the naent profound realm at such a young age. This kind of innate ability even in New Moon City would be considered first class. Your grandfather is floating Cloud City's number one expert and your future accomplishments would surely not lose to your grandfathers. What? The Zia Yua to the side asked with wide eyes. Elder Sikong, did you just say that my brother-in-law is already in the nent profound realm? This this Elder Sang, are you sure you're not mistaken? My brother-in-law had his profound veins crippled since childhood and had never been able to pass the first level of the elementary profound realm. How could he possibly be in the nent profound realm? Oh, Sikang Han's face revealed his puzzlement because he had sensed that Yani's profound aura was clearly at first level of the nent profound realm. Yani gently replied, "This is actually a long story, but I am indeed at first level of the naent profound realm. I wonder if my current profound strength would make me eligible to enter the profound department." As he spoke, Yani inconspicuously poked Zia Yuanba. The Zia Yuan who was about to speak out immediately shut his mouth, but nevertheless stared with a pair of enormous eyes as his heart cried out in alarm, "Good heavens! Brother-in-law is actually already in the nent profound realm. How could that be? How is this possible? Seeing Yani and Zia Yuana act in this way, Sikong Han knew there was more to this. But Yani did not want to elaborate and had deliberately avoided the subject. Sigong Han did not pry any further, but asked while chuckling, Yani, how old are you? 16 years old. Yani answered truthfully. At the same time, his heart took a small sigh of relief. 16 years old. A look of surprise appeared on Sikong Han's face as he stood up from his chair. I originally thought you were already 17 or 18, but you're actually only 16 years old. To actually be in the nent profound realm at the age of 16, even in the entire new moon profound palace, there should not be more than 10 individuals. If you had been born in a higher level sect, you would without a doubt greatly exceed the current you. Zia Yuanba continued to listen blankly as he held back the multiple times he had wanted to speak out. You flatter me, Elder Cong. Yani modestly replied, "If Sikong Han knew that it had only taken him half a year to break through into first level of the nent profound realm, he would have immediately fallen out of his chair from the shock. Come, let me check your innate ability." See, Kong Han waved him over. Yani took two steps forward and stood in front of Siong Han. Just as Sikong Han was about to use his hands to check his veins, he quickly held his breath and forcibly used his profound energy to block 38 of his 54 profound entrances that were all opened, leaving only 16 of his profound entrances open. However, this degree of concealment would only work against the simplest of exams. If the examiner was to probe just a little bit more, it would easily be seen through. However, for those who wanted to join New Moon Profound Palace, everyone would try to display the best of their ability. Sikong Han never would have guessed that there would be someone who would intentionally conceal their ability. So therefore, he did not spend a great deal of energy during this examination. Sikang Han gently placed his hand on Yani's wrist for a brief moment and then admirably nodded. No wonder to actually have an innate amount of 16 open profound entrances. This is without a doubt the level of a genius. This is also a talent that our profound department greatly desires. At this point, Sikong Han was already somewhat excited. Originally, he had wanted to repay Xoli<unk>'s kindness by accepting Yani into New Moon Profound Palace to let him have a place to stay. However, now that he was aware of Yani's innate talent, don't even mention the relationship with Xio li. Even if he had to disregard his face, he would definitely try to keep Yani here in Born with 16 profound entrances opened. With this kind of innate talent, one could easily ascend to the top of New Moon City and receive preferential treatment. Not only that, those high tier sects and clans resources and influence far outweighed that of New Moon Profound Palace. Yani's arrival was simply a treasure sent for New Moon Profound Palace. As of now, there were only seven individuals in New Moon Profound Palace who had an inborn amount of 16 open profound entrances, and there would only be at most an additional one or two every year. Generally, those who had this sort of innate talent would go and join those great sects or clans. Yani, do you really want to join our new moon profound palace? Sikong Han asked with luminous eyes. If you really want to join, all entrance exams will be foregone, and I will directly admit you. Zia Yuana's mouth opened wide as his brain shortcircuited. Is it possible to join class 1? Yani asked. Of course, there's no problem. Sikong Han slapped the table. Given your current profound strength and your innate talent, you're completely qualified to be part of class 1. Yani pondered for a moment and then humbly nodded. Okay. Sikong Hanss hands frantically scrambled about on the table. This rapid action conveyed his fear that Yani would run away. After a little while, he slapped a silver badge on Yanchi's shoulder and said, "So from now on, you're a disciple of my new moon profound palace's profound department. This will identify you as so. And here's the key to your quarters. Today just happens to be the appointment day of the new palace chief. The matters of this evening celebration for the newly appointed currently has my hands tied, so I won't keep you guys any longer. Yuanba, take Yani to settle down in his quarters or perhaps even introduce him to his future senior apprentices. "Oh, by the way, Yani, are you interested in attending the banquet this evening?" Sikong Han suddenly asked. "I'm allowed to participate," Yani asked in astonishment. "The appointment of a new palace chief is considered a sensational major event in New Moon City. We've sent invitations to all sects who have sufficient enough prestige and influence in New Moon City. They'll definitely gather to give the newly appointed palace chief face. When that time comes, there will be an assembly of talented individuals present. Generally speaking, for these kind of events, only the core disciples of our profound department would be allowed to attend. Even though you've only joined our profound department today, given your innate ability, you barely qualify to attend. It'll give you the chance to become knowledgeable of the top sects of New Moon City. As you'll be staying in New Moon City, this knowledge will be quite beneficial for you. Yanqi immediately understood. It was mainly due to the kindness owed to his grandfather that thereby gave him a newly joined disciple the allowance to attend this major banquet. And this special attention was also to let him quickly understand the distribution of power in New Moon City. He immediately replied with gratitude. Thank you, Elder Sikong. I'll certainly attend, but may I bring you Amber along? Sikong Han slightly hesitated for a bit, but then smiled and nodded. That's fine, Yuan. You come along as well. Yani has just joined New Moon Profound Palace and is unfamiliar with many things. You can be his guide. I'll arrange for an extra seat for you. After leaving the elders hall, Zia Yuan was still confused about this situation. Only when they had walked for a distance did he take a deep breath and said with his eyes wide open, "Brother, what's going on? Are you really at the nent profound realm? BB. But aren't your profound veins crippled? Even if your profound veins have been healed, there's no way to become this formidable so suddenly. You're even more formidable than my older sister. This Yani pondered for a long time, but still did not know how he should explain it to him since he was unwilling to deceive him. The only option was to be vague about it. Yuan, this is a secret. So when the time is right in the future, I'll tell you about it. But the fact that my profound veins had been crippled before, it's best not to tell anyone about it, otherwise it might invite negative inclination. Ah, ooh. Zia Yuanba scratched his head in puzzlement. Then his eyes suddenly lit up and said, "Brother, I suddenly understand it now. You've been pretending this whole time, right? Otherwise, how could it be possible to all of a sudden enter the nent profound realm? This has to be it. Brother-in-law, you're so crafty to have fooled all of us." Haha. Yani shrugged his shoulder and let Zia Yua dwell on his own theory. He changed his line of sight to gaze upon New Moon Profound Palace and his heart stirred. "How long are you planning to stay here?" Jasmine suddenly asked mentally. "We<unk>ll see. If this place is beneficial to me, I'll stay longer, but if not, I'll leave immediately. The main reason why I'm staying here is so that I can learn some profound skills. After all, all the profound skills that you know are too highleled and I can't learn them yet. Therefore, this is the only method I can think of. Jasmine spoke no further. New moon profound palace occupied a vast expanse with a magnificent main hall at its center and innumerable architecture that stretched as far as the eye could see. Yanqi followed Zia Yuan towards his living accommodations. Along the way, he met many new moon profound palace disciples, all of whom were under the age of 20. There was the occasional 15 and 16year-old, and of those in this age group, most were of the elementary profound realm. Along the way, there were many people that greeted them. After all, between his age and size, even if they wanted to ignore him, it would be hard. "How many disciples are there in New Moon Profound Palace right now?" Yani asked. "The last time I checked, there were more than 3,000 disciples." Zia Yuamba thoughtfully said, "New Moon Profound Palace recruits disciples within the age of 15 to 18. Most of them generally stay until they reach 20 years old before departing. An awful lot of them will join Blue Winds official force in the future." "However, brother-in-law, do you really plan on participating in tonight's banquet?" Zia Yuan asked somewhat worriedly. to have the opportunity of possibly being able to catch a glimpse of almost all of New Moon City's top powers all in one go. Of course, I have to go. Yani took a sideways glance at him. Yuanba, it seems as if you don't want to go to this banquet. Is there a problem? Even though it's not exactly a problem, but but Zia Yuanba hesitated for a moment and then said with a bit of indignance, some time ago, I heard that when last generation's palace chief was newly appointed, they also sent out many invitations for a banquet. During that banquet, however, the invited disciples from the other sects used the excuse of exchanging pointers to challenge our disciples of the same age. There were 10 matches and we of New Moon profound palace lost all 10 times. Thus humiliating the old palace chief and turning the new one into a laughingstock for a long time. He that was obviously the minations of those sex to cause the newly appointed palace chief to lose prestige and let him know who was the real boss of New Moon City. Yani said while laughing. That's right. Zia Yuana nodded and helplessly said, "I heard the same thing happened to the palace chief from two generations ago as well. He could not avoid inviting them to the celebration. Otherwise, he would have been laughed at and ridiculed and lose every bit of face left. If we attend the banquet, chances are that we'll be challenged by them. Losing to them doesn't matter, but those people very often have malicious intent and use a heavy hand. The last time there were two senior brothers that were beaten until they couldn't fully recover from their injuries. And the palace chief had no other choice but to swallow his words and endure the humiliation. New Moon Profound Palace attracts a numerous amount of disciples every year. Is their strength really that bad? Yani asked as he knitted his brow. Of course, it's not that our New Moon Profound Palace's strength that's lacking. It's just just that those schools are just too strong. Even though new moon profound palace has the backing of the imperial family, those sects possess long history, many sect secrets, resources, and techniques that have been passed down for many generations. All of these are not something that New Moon profound palace can compare to. Even if they're recruiting for outer sect disciples, the cutoff threshold is much more higher than ours. Furthermore, people that enter into sex with the Imperial family's backing generally plan on giving their lives up to the Imperial family. After all, the establishment of the Imperial family sect was originally intended to attract talented people to join the Imperial Forces. However, those people with great talents are usually proud and arrogant. Their desire to join the large sex greatly overweigh that of joining the imperial forces. So the average power of the new moon profound palace's disciples when compared to the small and middlesized sects can be considered to be better but if compared to those large sects cannot even begin to match up to them. The situation explained by Zia yuan was in fact quite normal. Even Yani himself although added into the new moon profound palace for other reasons was merely looking for opportunities and had never once thought about serving the imperial family. He thought for a moment and then asked. In New Moon City, what are the sex that have more power than New Moon Profound Palace? Oh, let me think. Zia Yuanba seriously thought for a moment and then slowly answered. In total, there are seven. They are the profound heart sect, Cloudy Sunsect, Iron Spear Clan, Seven Deadly Sword Pavilion, and Stormy Profound Palace. After pausing for a moment, Zia Yuamba's voice became somewhat guarded. These five sects have a history of over 500 or even a thousand years. In New Moon City, their influence is deeply ingrained in the city and their overall strength is greater than that of New Moon Profound Palace. If not for the backing of the Imperial family, then perhaps we may have already been suppressed and forced out. In addition to these five, there are two more giants that not even the Imperial family would dare provoke. And they are the branches of Zyro sect and Burning Heaven Clan that are here in New Moon City. Although they're merely branches, they still have the backing of the Xyro sect and Burning Heaven Clan, making them the two immovable overlords of New Moon City. Branches of the Xyro sect and Burning Heaven Clan. Yani tapped his chin. He clearly knew in his heart that this was in name only. In reality, these disciples of the outer sect were those of the lowest talent that were not suitable to remain in the main sect and nothing more. However, when all said and done, they were still the official outer sect and were unlike the Xyro clan who had been completely abandoned. However, our New Moon Profound Palace is of course not so easily bullied. Xio Yuana patted his chest with a face full of unwillingness and said although new moon profound palace lost dignity during that banquet 5 years ago however that was 5 years ago our new moon profound palace now also have quite a lot of talents and definitely would not be below those of the other sects ah brother-in-law look that person over there is our senior brother Lee Wow he's 17 this year and has already reached the third level of the naent profound realm I heard he'd also inherited his family's profound arts and is very powerful. That person over there in white clothing is even more powerful. I believe he was called Sue Joran. He's only 18 years old and is already at the fifth rank of the naent profound realm. Those two are in our class one. However, the most formidable in our new moon profound palace are not them, but senior brother Murang and senior sister Zurio, who are publicly known as New Moon Profound Palace's two biggest geniuses. The elders will definitely bring them to tonight's banquet. With them, it definitely won't be a repeat of 5 years ago. As he spoke up to this point, Zia Yuanba's voice abruptly stopped because in front of them, a young man in a white robe and a girl dressed in snow white attire walked side by side in their direction. The man, who appeared to be 18 or 19, had a tall build, elegant features, and a fascinating charm like that of Jade. He was beautiful enough to make any sexually awakened girl who yearned for love become completely infatuated. And that girl beside him was even more so beautiful enough to make one's heart tremble. She seemed to also be 18 or 19 with a pair of beautiful sparkling eyes and cherry colored lips with the luster of a smooth sea shell. Her elegant eyebrows were crescentshaped as well. But the most touching was the light smile that graced her lips that was as heartwarming as the smell of incense in a gentle breeze. The two were like a perfect couple that had just stepped out of a painting. The moment they appeared, all the brilliance between heaven and earth was taken away. The youth continuously talked about something beside the girl and constantly watched her reaction from the side of his eyes. But the girl's reaction did not change. while maintaining a constant warm smile the whole time. She did not say anything in reply. Although she was only gently striding onward, it would make one believe that they had seen a fairy dancing in a white dress. Above all, her beautiful and slender snow white neck let her exude a noble and graceful aura that added to her charm, making one feel as if they were looking at an exalted princess that belonged in the Imperial family. "What a beautiful girl!" Yani admiringly exclaimed in his heart. Although her appearance was incomparable to Ziaingu's, it definitely was one in 10,000, a devastating beauty that could tip over cities and nations. Yet, the noble air that wrapped around her like an indistinct haze was not something that Zia Kingu could match. What amazed Yani the most was the touch of gentleness in her eyes and expression. Generally speaking, a girl that was beautiful to this extent would more or less carry a somewhat arrogant air. His wife, Zia Kingu, a prime example. Yet this girl had a gentle complexion. Her gaze was as soft as water, and there wasn't even the slightest hint of arrogance between her brows. The faint smile on the corner of her lips was sufficient enough to almost completely melt one's heart with just a single glance. Senior brother, Murang, senior sister, Zuri. At the same time that Yani was silently admiring this girl, Zia Yuan had actually pulled him up to greet them. Murang, Zuri, don't tell me that these two were the ones that Yuanba had just mentioned. Yani thought in his heart. Junior brother Zeia, are you going back to rest? Upon seeing Zeia Yuanba, the girl smiled and greeted him. When her voice sounded, Yani immediately felt a sort of warm current slowly flow from his ears to the center of his heart. Because this sound was extremely gentle and that beautiful. Just simply listening to this sound brought about a feeling of inexplicable pleasure. When coming into close proximity with her gaze, it was even more understandable how her soft gaze and smile could intoxicate one's heart. At this point, the girl's gaze fell upon Yani, and she curiously asked, "This is he." He Hei, "This is my brother-in-law. He just entered our profound department today. He's also in our class 1." Zia Yuan cheerfully said, "Brother, they're the senior brother Murang Yi and senior sister Lan Zuri that I had just mentioned earlier. They're this generation's strongest disciples within our new moon profound palace. Yani walked forward a step, his face wearing a polite smile. Greetings, senior brother and senior sister. This little brother is Yani, who has just entered the profound department. I request the two seniors to look after me in the future. Murang slightly nodded his head, which was barely considered to be a reply. His gaze stopped on Yani for a moment and then moved away as arrogance hung between his brows. There were also hidden traces of resentment as he was obviously unhappy that they had disturbed he and Zuru<unk>s twoperson world. Oh, you also joined our class one. Lan Zuru took a good look at Yanqi and laughed gleefully. You seem so young, yet you're already at the first level of the nent profound realm. No wonder Elder Sikkong snatched you into class one. If the beauties in the class find out that such a handsome little junior had just entered, they'll definitely be overjoyed. You need to be careful, little junior brother. Hey, that's not right. Junior brother, Zia seemed to have referred to you as brother-in-law. Don't tell me you're already married. Before Yani had the chance to reply, Zia Yuan already answered before him. That's right. My brother-in-law is only 16 this year, but he has already married my sister half a year ago. Oh, so little junior brother Yan is only 16 years old. to marry this early. It seems the bride must have been really beautiful. Lanzuro said smiling. Ahaha. Anyway, I'll be in senior brother and senior sister's care in the future. Yani awkwardly smiled. Then his gaze suddenly changed as he spoke while smiling at Lan Zuri. I'm guessing that senior sister Zuri is definitely not a native from around here. Is that right? Oh, how did you know? Lan Zuri asked as she blinked her beautiful eyes. Because the atmosphere in New Moon City is a bit restless and its spiritual aura is opaque. There should be no way that a graceful beauty like senior sister Zurio was born here. Lan Zurio was slightly stunned. Then her pink lips curved up and while raising her eyebrows, she said, "Not only is junior brother young, good-looking and talented, but is also a smooth talker, too. It's a pity that you're already married. Otherwise, senior sister here may he lan Zurua was clearly joking, but Murang Yi, who was standing by her side, fiercely glared at Yani. However, Yani appeared as if he didn't see that at all and instead smiled at Lan Zuri and said, "It doesn't matter. My wife had guaranteed this to me before. She definitely wouldn't object to me getting another wife." As soon as Yani let out those words, Zia Yuamba's mouth promptly opened wide, and even his eyes had almost bulged out from shock. Murang Yi eyes narrowed. The gaze that looked at Yani suddenly became ice cold and mocking, and even faintly let out a sneer. However, Lan Zuru didn't get angry in the slightest and sweetly smiled. What an interesting little junior. It seems like the following days won't be that boring anymore. Then senior sister here will stop chatting with you for now. I need to attend a banquet tonight and there may be a difficult battle awaiting. We need to head to the medicine department and prepare some medicine pills that may come in handy. Let's meet later. Okay. Goodbye, senior sister. Lan Zuru playfully winked her left eye and left with a faint smile while carrying away a receding gust of a faint fragrant wind. Although Yani<unk>s words had some frivolousness mixed in, it apparently didn't make Lan Zuru feel repulsed. Instead, her impression of Yani had deepened such that he won't be forgotten just by turning around. Yani turned to cast a sidelong glance and gazed steadily at her willowy figure seen from behind without concealing his thoughts of admiration at all. With a complexion that could tip over the world and a noble and elegant disposition, not only was she not arrogant, but instead was so warm and gentle to the heart. She truly was a girl that men could hardly resist. However, her identity and status must also not be that simple. A hand smacked onto Yani's shoulder in an extremely unfriendly manner. Yani turned back around and saw Murang Yi looking at him coldly and promptly said with a faint smile, "Senior brother Murang, what do you need from me? Speaking of which, weren't you together with senior sister Zurio? Lanzuru had already walked pretty far away, but still did not turn around to call for Murang Yi. It was as if she completely didn't realize that he wasn't with her. It seems the relationship between those two were very different from what Yani had first thought. It was probably more or less Mirang Yi<unk>s one-sided crush. Murang Yi<unk>s eyes narrowed, exposing a sneer full of contempt and disdain. His gaze was as if looking down on an insignificant, inferior human being. Your name is Yani, right? Little Junior Yan, although I don't know what method you used to sneak into our class one, but as your senior, there are a few things I need to remind you. Since you've entered class one, then obediently learn what you should do and what you shouldn't do, lest you blame me later for not reminding you after you've suffered the consequences. Also, remember it clearly. Stay further away from Lan Zuru hereafter. The further the better. If I see you speak with her like that again, don't forget that I have numerous ways to kick you out of New Moon Profound Palace. HMPH. After finished speaking, his gaze bitterly swept over Yani and Zia Yuan and quickly walked toward the direction that Lan Zuri had left in. He knew about Zia Yuan's background that he was only a merchants's child in a small remote city, which meant this brother-in-law of his would definitely be someone with a small role without much background. So, of course, he naturally did not hesitate in ridiculing him. Yani tilted his gaze and nonchalantly glanced behind him and coldly sneered. This person, his eyes has almost grown to the top of his head. T L E eyes on top of head is a way of saying someone is so arrogant that the eyes grew even higher to look down on people. He's always like this. I had already gotten used to it long ago. Zia Yuanba had a face of anger and helplessness at the same time. Normally when Murangi gave him different types of looks, he had never really minded. However, this time he was clearly threatening Yani, which made Fury rise from the inside of his heart. But as he thought about the opponent's strength and family background, there was fundamentally nothing he could do. It might have been okay if it was only him, since there was still the vice palace chief supporting him behind his back. But for Yani, it may really be impossible for him to continue to stay in New Moon Profound Palace. It seems this Murang Yi is not just any random kind of fodder, Yani murmured. Seeing that Yoni didn't appear to be angry, Zia Yuanbo was slightly reassured and said in a low voice, "His father is actually the governor of the new moon city." Not only that, his talent in the profound is also astounding. While only 19 this year, he had already reached the eighth level of naent profound realm. And rumors say that recently he'd almost broke into the ninth level of naent profound realm. In the entirety of New Moon Profound Palace, no one would ever dared to provoke him. the governor<unk>'s son. He I see. Yan Chi faintly expelled a laugh, then suddenly said, "He's trying to court Lanzuru, right? Mhm. Senior sister Lan Zuri is both beautiful and gentle. So, there are a lot of senior brothers that likes her. However, she and senior brother Murang is the generally acknowledged pair since essentially no one dares to compete with senior brother Murang and so the senior brothers that liked senior sister Zuru never dared to get too close to her." Zia Yuanba then added on with a bizarre tone. Brother-in-law is the first I've ever seen to dare speak to senior sister Zuru like that. Definitely be careful of this Murang Yi in the future. Although he's pretty formidable, he's also an extremely petty person. That's easy to see. Uh Chi shrugged his shoulders, but appeared to have not taken the advice into his heart at all and instead asked Yuan by this land. Zuri, where did she come from? I can tell that her family background is definitely not common. So why would she come to New Moon Profound Palace? Zia Yuanba shook his head. This I don't know either. I only know that she seemed to be Elder Sikkong<unk>s distant relative and she entered into the profound department during the orientation period half a year ago at the same time as me. About the location of her hometown, she had never mentioned it before. However, senior sister Zuruo is really amazing. She's only 18 this year, yet she's already at the eighth level of nent profound realm. She's the most talented person in this new moon profound palace and is even more amazing than senior brother Murang. Both were at the eighth level of naent profound realm. Murangi was 19 and Lan Zuru was 18. It was obvious that Lan Zuru surpassed Murangi in terms of talent. Xio Yulong who had reached the third level of naent profound realm at the age of 20 was already the strongest of Xio clan's young generation. Zia Kingu, who had reached the 10th level of elementary profound realm at the age of 16, was already a once- ina century genius in Floating Cloud City. But no matter Mirong Yi or Lan Zuri, either one of them had clearly far surpassed Ziaingu, let alone Xio Yulong. Also, youths of this level should not be a rarity in those big sects of New Moon City. In comparison, Floating Cloud City was worthy to be called a forgotten small city. The level of profound strength was honestly too different. Grandfather X Li was already considered the strongest in the floating cloud city at the 10th level of the spirit profound realm. But if he were to come to this new moon city, he would only probably be ranked in the upper levels when compared to those of the same age. But it was impossible to be at the top. Yuanba. Yani<unk>s expressions became solemn. There is a very serious matter that I have to discuss with you. Uh what is it? Looking at Yani's expression, Zia Yuanba suddenly became nervous. From now on, you aren't allowed to call me brother-in-law. Yani said as a matter of fact, "Why?" Zia Yuanba<unk>s eyes widened. Yani patted Zia Yuan's shoulder as his gaze swept into the distance and answered, hearing what senior sister Zuru had said. There are a lot of beauties in our class 1. No, about that. It seems to be true, but senior Zuru is still the prettiest of them all. Yani's eyebrows slightly shook and said with a tone full of righteousness, "Since there are a lot of beauties in class 1, if you keep on calling me brother-in-law, wouldn't that reveal the fact that I'm already married? How would I be able to flirt with those beautiful senior and junior sisters?" Zia Yuan opened his mouth as his brain froze for over 3 seconds. Then he finally spoke weakly. "But brother-in-law, you have my sister already. If you are with another girl, ooh, wouldn't that be a little?" "No, no." Yi swung his hand and said in deadly earnest, "When I told senior sister Zuru about how your sister wouldn't object me in finding another wife, that was really what your elder sister had promised me. Also, in this life, it's unknown whether or not I can ever meet your elder sister again." Yani looked to the far distance. Then his gaze became deep and profound. There are only two ultimate goals that a man pursues. One is to conquer the world. The other is to conquer women. To conquer the world is to reach a new height in life. But to conquer women is to embellish the scenery of life. If one isn't able to conquer the women that he wants, even if he conquered the entire world, he would still be at a lonely summit and experience loneliness everywhere. Yuan, don't you think that what I, your brother-in-law, just said is right? Zia Yuan didn't really understand what he had just said, but he still thought it sounded kind of amazing. Then if I don't call you brother-in-law, what should I call you? Because Yanqi and Ziaing Yu<unk>s marriage was already decided when they were still infants. Zia Yuanba had always called him brother-in-law since childhood. Other than brother-in-law, his brain that couldn't really make sharp turns simply could not think of anything else to call him in such a short notice. About this, you can call me big brother boss, big brother Yan, big brother Chi, big brother Yani, or just simply call me Yani, senior brother Yan. In short, just don't call me brother-in-law anymore. Oh. Oh, then I'll call you boss from now on. Is that good? That's fine. Boss. Boss. Boss. Oo. It still feels kind of weird. Ah, right. Earlier, senior sister Zuruo said she was heading to the medicine department for medicinal pills in order to deal with tonight's banquet. Should we go there, too? Since brother-in-law had just entered the profound department, it's possible to immediately receive a set of medicinal pills from the medicine department. You can get one set per month. Don't call me brother-in-law. Ah, I forgot. I'll definitely pay attention. Then, brother-in-law, should we head to the living quarters or the medicine department first? Number%. Yani followed Zia Yuan and received a set of medicinal pills. And these pellets were sure enough as Yani had expected. They were all the lowest levels of profound recovering pellets and profound opening pellets, and their potency were all around 40 or 50%. With supportive medicinal pellets of this degree, they were way worse in comparison the big sex. It was not surprising as to why the new moon profound palace's average strength had always remained stagnant. The living space that Sikang Han had arranged for Yani was adjacent to Ziauamba's. Although small, it was very elegant and had all the necessities, which was far better than what Yani had expected. Until now, Yani, who had wandered outside for half a year, finally had a place to settle down and sleep in. Emotions tumbled inside his heart. Laying on the small bed, Yani quickly fell asleep. This past half a year, he had always slept in the wilderness, never stayed in any ins and had not enjoyed the privilege of sleeping in a bed either. This time, he slept especially comfortably and steady from noon all the way till evening until he was woken up by Zia Yuan, who knocked on his door. Brother-in-law, are you awake yet? The banquet is almost about to start. Are we still going? Zia Yuan knew in his heart what may happen at this banquet, so he didn't really want Yani to attend it. This was in order for him to avoid being challenged and the definite possibility that he would be deliberately injured by the opponent. Yani opened his eyes and quickly got up from the bed. Of course, I'm going. Give me a minute. We'll go at once. The heart of New Moon profound palace was a wide area of a sparse emerald green bamboo forest and in it stood a huge palace that emitted a dignified atmosphere. This was the biggest and most extravagant building in the entirety of New Moon profound palace. Its name was very direct and was known as the main palace. All the important matters inside the palace are conducted in the main palace. And the banquet for the new palace chief's appointment would also be conducted here when Yan Chi and Zia Yuan walked into the main palace. There wasn't even half a quarter of an hour left until the start of the banquet. However, not even 1/5if of the seats were filled. Not only that, most of them were actually people of the profound department itself. It was obvious that it wasn't because those invited sects couldn't arrive any earlier, but instead they purposefully did not want to arrive early as a boast about their stature. At the same time, it was also a type of contempt against New Moon profound palace. As Yani and Zia Yuamba walked into the main hall and just happened to run into Mirang Yi, he glanced at them and said in an unfriendly manner, "What are the two of you doing here? Do you know what kind of banquet this is? Leave at once?" It was Elder Sikkong who allowed us to come. Zia Yuanba said whilst restraining his rage. Elder Sikkong allowed you too, Murang Yi said with a disdainful laugh. He let you two come to disgrace us. This is no ordinary banquet. In a little while, disciples of various schools will do battle. You two pieces of trash aren't even considered to be any good. What can you two do now that you've come here? HMPH. Fine. Since the elder has allowed you two to come, go inside. I'll be frank. If you cause our new moon profound palace to lose face, don't blame this senior for being too rough with your punishment. He had followed behind Lan Zuru for an entire afternoon. Even though Lan Zuru had always smiled and spoke in a gentle voice, she had not looked directly at him even once. This made him store up an entire stomach's full of unpleasantness. When he encountered Yani and Zia Yuan, it just so happened that he found an outlet for his anger. Even if Zia Yuanba had a better temperament, suddenly being verbally abused for no apparent reason would still stir up his anger. Yani tugged on his arm and spoke with an indifferent tone. "Let<unk>s enter." As they entered the main palace, they saw Sikkong Han waving at them and made them seat themselves on the pre-arranged seating. Both of their seats were set at the very back and very out of sight. However, although the place where they sat wasn't very noticeable with Zia Yuanba's figure placed there, it was impossible to not draw attention. Yan Chi Yuan, should any duels occur later. I want the two of you to pay close attention. It would be best if the two of you managed to learn something from the fight. It has only been a short while since you two had joined the profound department, so it's unlikely that anyone would challenge you two. Just stay in the back and watch safely. Sikong Han cautioned. Understood. Elder Sikong. Zia Yuamba nodded and then sat down obediently. Yani also slowly nodded. He looked around and noticed that around 30 disciples of the profound department were present. Unsurprisingly, every one of the 30 should be the elite disciples of New Moon Profound Palace. Out of the profound department's 3,000 disciples, only 30 came. Each of them, without a doubt, were the best of the best. Soon after, Yani had spotted Lanzuru. She astonishingly sat in the center of the first row of disciples. Her seating did not surprise Yanqi in the slightest. An 18-year-old at the eighth level of the naent profound realm and was even a girl that was considered to be a top talent even in the mid-upper level sects. As for Yanqi, he also caught the attention of quite a few of the profound departments disciples. All of those who were able to participate in this gathering were the elites of their sects, and the competition amongst them would be fierce. Those familiar with this sort of gathering were very surprised at Zia Yuanba's participation. Since Zia Yuanba's strength was only at the sixth level of the elementary profound realm, he was considered to be one of the weaker members within the profound department and thus did not have the qualifications to be here. And Yani that came together with him was a downright unfamiliar face. H are you a new disciple here? Don't think I've ever seen you around before. A girl in a fiery red attire who sat in front of Yani turned around and asked as her eyes blinked with curiosity. Greetings, senior sister. My name is Yani. I just joined the profound palace today. Yani slightly nodded as his face gave off an extremely alluring and lethal smile. For a split second, the girl felt as if she was shocked by an electric current. Her cheeks reened somewhat, and she lightly cried out, "Wow, to have already broken into the nent profound realm at such a young age. No wonder you've been allowed to attend this banquet on the very first day you've been admitted. He's my brother-in-law. Of course, he'd be awesome, Zia Yua proudly announced. He seemed to be more happy when others praised Yani instead of himself. Ah, brother-in-law. You're already married? asked the girl with pink lips as her eyes displayed obvious disappointment. With great difficulty, Yani managed to restrain himself from strangling Zia Yuan and replied with a tranquil expression. That's right. Senior sister being so beautiful definitely should also be married already, right? HMPH. I definitely won't be getting married so early. Ah, that's right. My name is Ehongling Profound Apartments Class 1,7 years old. If you have any problems in the future, just come find me, the girl said with an air of honor. The pleasure is mine, senior sister. Knowing that he made a mistake, Zia Yuana lowered his head, shrank, and did not dare to speak to Yani for a long time. At this time, the lead actor of the event, the newly appointed palace chief of New Moon, profound palace, Chin Wayu, had finally arrived. Chin Wayu looked to be about 60 in age. His face held an expression of a gentle and unflustered calm, and a deep wisdom could be seen in his clear eyes. He emanated an extraordinary aura. Chin Wu was originally one of the elders of the imperial capital's profound palace. He was specially assigned to New Moon Profound Palace as the palace chief, and his true strength was deep and unfathomable. Chin Wu had already arrived in New Moon Profound Palace a month ago, and today was merely the official day of the newly appointed banquet. In this short month, he had already bowled over each elder and disciple, and received their deepest respects. After taking the palace chief's seat, all the representatives of the large sects followed at his heels, as if they had planned it beforehand. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha Taihiang of Iron Spear clan brings his son Hangjun to respectfully congratulate Palace Chief Chin on his appointment. Following the voice of the hearty clear laughter, one could see a middle-aged man and seven disciples striding in. That's the current clan master of the Iron Spear clan. Zia Yuan whispered into Yani's ear. The one following directly behind him is his youngest son, Tai Henjan. Although he is young, he's also shockingly talented. According to the rumors, he's the top candidate who would become Iron Spear Clan's future clan master. Palace Chief Chin, I trust that you've been well since we last met. When I chanced upon you half a month ago, Palace Chief Chin's bearing had truly made a deep impression on me. Today, I especially brought my son to come before you. This is a meager gift to show my respect to you. Chin Wu personally rose from his seat and accepted the gift. Iron Spear Clans's clan master is really too polite. You personally came to give this old man face, so there should be no need to bring any gift. Your esteemed son is extraordinarily talented and the way he conducts himself is out of the ordinary. In the future, he will definitely be a dragon amongst men and perhaps he may even far surpass you, his father. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, come, please take a seat. Yuan, this situation seems to be overly harmonious. I can't sense any sort of fierce rivalry going on at all. Yani said as he rubbed his chin. This Iron Spear clan's reputation has always been good. Even though their overall strength and influence surpasses our profound palace, their relationship with us can be considered as not bad. The other clans, however, before finishing his sentence, the members of the Cloudy Sun sect had arrived. Cloudy Sunseeks head Elder Yanzai congratulates Palace Chief Chin on his appointment. Profound heart sect, seven deadly sword pavilion and stormy profound palace. All came one after the other after cloudy sun sect. Each clan brought along seven or eight disciples and Chin Wu personally welcomed them. Only until the banquet was about to officially begin Burning Heaven Clan slowly arrived. Burning Heaven Clan's sixth elder Fenhan congratulates Palace Chief Chin on his appointment. Burning Heaven Clan, or to be precise, Burning Heaven Clan's outer sect located in New Moon City. The one in the lead was an old man clad entirely in red. His robe was completely embroidered in a crimson red flame patterns. As he stepped into the main palace, everyone could clearly feel a blast of heat rush against their faces. After burning Heaven Clan's outer sect came Xyro sects branch sect, and they were the last to arrive. The one in front who led the way was a youth who looked no older than 17. Behind him was only a middle-aged man who looked to be in his 40s and six disciples no older than 20. Junior Xyro Lua Changang of Xyro sect meets palace chief Chin. As he entered the main palace, the youth calmly headed towards Chin Wu and followed the proper etiquette of a junior in a serene and refined manner. It was neither serval nor overbearing. However, as a junior who has come to pay respects to the opposite party, who was a palace chief of the imperial family's profound palace, not humbling himself was already a type of arrogance. It's<unk> X Lua Chang, Zia Yua drew in a sharp breath and immediately whispered in Yani<unk>s ear. Never thought he would come here. The first day I came to New Moon City, I'd already heard his name several times. He's also 16, the same age as brother-in-law, but he's already the young master of Xio sects branch sect. Not only that, he's also publicly recognized as the number one of New Moon City's younger generation. Number one, Yani quickly glanced a few more times at Xio Luang. Indeed, he looked pretty young, but there was a prominent maturity in his demeanor, and the place between his eyebrows was full of undisguised honor and pride. Those who saw him were filled with peculiar feelings of either astonishment, admiration, jealous envy, or perhaps even a shameful sense of inferiority. Right. In regards to innate talent, he is without a doubt number one. He's only 16, but has already reached the 10th level of the nent profound realm. I've heard that he's not far from breaking through into the true profound realm as well. Brother-in-law, do you believe that? 16 years old, 10th level of nent profound realm. Yani<unk>s face was a fluster of emotions. He unconsciously looked at Lan Zuri and discovered that a deep layer of seriousness had covered her face. He zouang. This old man has heard of this well-known name. I didn't expect that there would be a chance to meet the number one of New Moon City's young generation. Your esteemed father did not come today. Chin Wu asked as he laughed without worry. Palace Chief Chin<unk>s praise is too much. Even though father had very much wanted to come in person to congratulate palace chief Chin on his appointment, he is unwell and cannot attend today. Because of this, this junior is acting as his substitute. Please do not take offense to this. Xoluang<unk>s face was all smiles as he conversed with warm words. Ching Wu was one of the leaders of New Moon Profound Palace. So at his appointment banquet, each of the major sex leaders ought to have appeared in person to show the appropriate amount of respect. If not, then they should at least send a head elder. Of the seven major sects present, Iron Spear Clan, seven Deadly Sword Pavilion, and Stormy Profound Palaces sect masters had all personally arrived. As for Profound Heart Sect and Cloudy Sun sect, they came with a head elder. Although Burning Heaven Clans outer sect was arrogant, they had still sent a sixth elder. However, this Xio sects branch sect had actually sent a group of juniors. Although Xyro Lua Changeng was extremely courteous, as long as one was not a fool or blind, they could see that this was obviously a kind of naked contempt. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Chin Wu let out a hearty laugh as if he did not mind at all. Young master of Xiao Oct, what are you saying? I've heard many things about young master's elegant manners everyday. To finally be able to meet you today has already granted a wish of mine, so I am happy beyond words. Esteemed guests of the Xio sect, please be seated. At this point, all the guests who were invited had already arrived. Xio sects branch sect and burning heaven clan's outer sect were naturally seated near the top. They were followed by the other five major sects and was once again followed by New Moon City's governor Murang Hangs seat. However, he was not even a little bit dissatisfied about the arrangement. The Murang family may stir up any amount of trouble they wanted in New Moon City, but that was only in the face of the little common sects. Even if he was New Moon City's governor in the presence of these seven major sects, he had to obediently tuck his tail between his legs and did not dare to even slightly offend them. As for those medium-sized clans who were invited, they even more so trembled in fear and trepidation. Very rarely did they see a gathering of the seven major sects, let alone dare to offend any one of them. All the guests had finally arrived, and it was time for the banquet to begin. Chin Wu returned to his seat, held a cup of wine in his hands, and announced in a clear voice, "Just for the sake of this Chin's appointment matter, our esteemed guests have taken time out of their busy schedule in order to grace this Chin with their presence. This Chin is truly fortunate. Since it is this Chin's first time in New Moon City, this Chin's knowledge regarding the affairs of New Moon City is quite poor. From now on, this Chin hopes that all who are present will not be too stingy in bestowing this chin with their assistance. This wine cup is this Chin's first toast to you all. As he finished his speech, Chin Wu raised his wine cup and downed it in one gulp. One after another, the guests had also raised their cups to toast as well. Every kind of spoken blessing had also continuously came one after the other. Haha, Palace Chief Chin is too polite. If you ever need our Azure Dragon Group's assistance for anything in the future, please do not hesitate to call upon us. Hearing that Palace Chief Chin was formerly from the Imperial City's Blue Wind Profound Palace really incites feelings of aspiration in our hearts. With the appointment of Palace Chief Chin, I believe New Moon Profound Palace is definitely on the road to remarkable success. Palace Chief Chin's profound strength is deep and unmeasurable. I'm afraid he may already be over the fifth level of the Earth profound realm or even higher. It really makes us feel great respect for him and ashamed of ourselves. The atmosphere had become lively all of a sudden, and those who were sucking up to curry favor with the new palace chief were naturally from the medium and small sects. Members of the seven major sects had remained aloof and only occasionally said some words out of courtesy. As they continuously toasted, the gazes of the disciples of the seven major sects had been aimed in the direction of the disciples of New Moon Profound Palace. They were clearly selecting their opponents for the upcoming challenge battle. The disciples of New Moon Profound Palace each wore a heavy expression yet upheld an imposing manner that did not betray the slightest trace of weakness. A few great elders had repeatedly evaluated the average strength of the disciples of the seven major sects and could only sigh in succession in their hearts. Although each major sect had only a small number of disciples, it was clear that they had gone through a meticulous selection process. Each of them had astonishing innate talent and greatly surpassed the palace's elites of the same age. They originally thought that these years of growth in New Moon profound palace had already closed the gap in between. But when faced with the current situation, that sort of thinking had really just been an overindulgence of a fantasy. Even if new moon profound palace had land Zuri, she alone was not enough to turn this situation around. It seems that this time they had no choice but to follow the disastrous conclusion they faced 5 years ago. Ah, that's also something that couldn't be helped. The background and resources of the profound palace simply was incapable of being on par with the several hundred years of heritage that the great sects possessed. This atmosphere is indeed quite subtle. It seems like this princess will soon have a good show to watch. Jasmine said, "What do you think the outcome would be when New Moon Profound Palace's elite disciples spars with the seven major sects?" Yani probingly asked. In regards to those in the same age group, disciples of the seven major sex on average are higher by two to three levels than disciples of the new moon profound palace. Does this princess still need to tell you what the outcome will be? Jasmine replied in an indifferent tone. That drastic of a difference? Yani's eyebrows slightly sank. It was still possible to compete against those whose cultivation was higher by half a level, but it was fundamentally hopeless when against someone who was a level higher on average. As for those higher by two to three levels, if it were really like this, New Moon Profound Palace's desire to not repeat a past disastrous event was completely just a dream. It seemed that the newly appointed palace chief could only watch this show of power and see how much he could endure. HMPH, if only considering that Burning Heaven clan and Xyro sect, the average difference is closer to four or five levels, added Jasmine. I want to know how many levels higher are you in comparison to them. Yi asked pensively. Compared to them, are you insulting this princess? Jasmine's voice held a faint sound of anger. Cough, cough, there was completely no intention of that. I was merely asking on a whim. A 13-year-old super monster of a lowly who could rapidly dispatch a dragon of the emperor profound. What sect geniuses? What new moons number one of the young generation? In her presence, they couldn't even be regarded as poop. Even Yani himself felt that comparing Jasmine to them was indeed the same as insulting her honor. Chin Wu clearly had the ability to control large occasions. The wine had gone through three rounds, and the entire banquet's bustling atmosphere was extraordinary as all kinds of cheers, laughter, and talk unceasingly continued. Even Yani, who did not drink, was hardily enjoying himself on the feast that accompanied the wine. There was a longl lasting exchange of glances that passed between the disciples of the profound palace and disciples of the other sects. Following this exchange of glances, the atmosphere became increasingly hostile. Even a random spark could happen any moment and trigger an explosive reaction. At that moment, Profound Heart Sex head elder Kuan Duano stood up with his wine cup in hand and loudly announced, "This cup is this old man's toast to palace chief Chin on behalf of Profound Heart Sex wish that he may soon lead New Moon Profon Palace to send tremors throughout the four oceans." After finishing, Chua drained his cup in one gulp, put the cup down, and continued. However, the banquet up till now, even though there are many esteemed guests present, still feels as if it's lacking something. It just isn't lively enough. Since Palace Chief Chin has only been newly appointed, he ought to have not yet become familiar with New Moon Profound Palace, and in all likelihood would want to know the current strength of the palace's disciples. Actually, this old man has a suggestion. Why don't we let a few of our younger disciples of the same age range exchange pointers? It may even liven things up, deepen the relationship amongst them, and palace Chief Chin would get to gauge the current strength of the palace's disciples. Wouldn't it be like getting three birds with one stone? Right. Elder Shuan's suggestion is wonderful. What a great three birds with one stone. What a great idea. Then what are we waiting for? Let<unk>s begin right away. I believe Palace Chief Chin would certainly not be opposed to this. As Chuano<unk>s voice was about to drop, loud applause and cheers unceasingly came. one after another from the seven sect side. As for the great elders of New Moon Profound Palace, they sighed in their hearts. What is to come nevertheless must come. A new palace chief was appointed in New Moon Profound Palace every 5 years. And every time this took place, the seven sects would come to display their strength. It has already gotten to the point that this became the typical norm. The seven great sects all responded alike as their disciples all stood up while rubbing their hands, eager for battle. Even if Chin Wu wanted to oppose, there was no way he could. However, he was clearly calm and collected. He stood up to smile and nodded. Elder Chuan<unk>s suggestion is not bad. Then how should we go about in exchanging pointers? That's simple. Shuano laughed out loud and said, "Our little juniors are different from us as they are in the initial stages where a person's age determines their step towards heaven. Therefore, it's only fair to use age as the factor in these exchanging of pointers. Of course, a younger person may challenge an older person. Winning this way will only be even more brilliant. Haha. Shuana<unk>s last statement, coupled with his laughter, clearly meant one thing. Even if our side is younger, we will still be able to beat those who are older on your side. Since this idea was proposed by this old man, then we<unk>ll start with my profound heart sect. Shu, and you, you're up. Don't forget to state your age. Yes, elder. The youngster who was called out from the profound heart sect appeared to be 16 or 17 years old, and he was actually the youngest of the lot of profound hearts disciples that came. He had a thin but well- toned body. With a rush of energy, he leapt high from his seat onto the center of the hall. With both hands cuped behind his back, he then swept his defiant eyes towards the seated new moon profound palace disciples. This one is profound heart sex useless disciple Kuan Yu 16 years old who will come up and advise me. Once Kuan Yu entered stepped onto the stage all the elders from New Moon profound palace became silent. This Kuan Yu was only really only 16 years old but he was already at second level of the nent profound realm. Being elders of course they knew of their own internal strength. In new moon profound palace, the most powerful of the 16-year-olds were only at the first level of the naent profound realm. Moreover, these disciples from the seven sects had their own sects profound arts. Even if they were of the same rank, new moon profound palaces disciples basically had no chance of winning at all. Therefore, don't even bother to mention going against one with a lower rank. What was even harder to accept was that this Ku and Yu amongst all the seven sex disciples here today would only be considered mid-tier and absolutely not their top tier. Shu and Yu stood there for quite a while, but there was no response from New Moon Profound Palaces side at all. The smile on Shuan Yu<unk>s face had already changed into a sneer. The people from the Seven Sex also looked on with contempt. If the situation was to go on like this, there would not be even exchanging of pointers. But instead, New Moon Profound Palace would lose face to the utmost degree. Sigong Han waved his hand. Liha, you're up. Yes. Lihao, who was called out to action, leaped from the disciple seating area to stand in front of Chuan Yu resolutely said. New moon profound Palace classes Lihao, please advise me. He needed to say, I'll properly give you some advice. Shuan Yu laughed as he replied with obvious sarcasm. Since New Moon Profound Palace was oppressed by them, the disciples of the Seven Sex always felt superior than the disciples of New Moon Profound Palace. In turn, disciples of New Moon Profound Palace were able to be cocky in front of mid-tier sects. But in front of the seven sects, they could not even lift their heads. Humph, the contemptu angered Lihao as he roared. He concentrated profound energy into his right arm and smashed towards Kuan Yu<unk>s face with an ear-piercing sound. He he only at this level. Shuan Yu smirked as he brought up his right hand which suddenly flashed with a layer of purple light. Its profound heart sex profound art sun art. One of the elders of New Moon Profound Palace growled. New moon profound palace and the seven sex did not just have a disparity in profound strength but also in profound arts. The major sects spent centuries refining their profound arts which have also been passed down through the generations. These profound arts were all secrets of their respective sex and they would never be taught to an outsider. If the new moon profound palace wanted to teach their disciples profound arts, they would have to create it first. In addition, New Moon Profound Palace's profound skills were for the most part low tier definitely inferior to those of the seven sects. The purple energy in Kuan's palm boiled like hot water as he clasped his hand into a fist and struck straight towards Lihao<unk>s fist. Two simple fists with no one using a profound skill. As the two fists collided, a purple light burst forth and there was only a sound of kacha as Lihao<unk>s fist became dislocated. He revealed a painful expression as his upper body was pushed back from the force. Shuan Yu let out an insidious laugh as his left fist suddenly stuck out. It had the same purple layer of light and ruthlessly smashed towards Liha's abdomen. But this time, it was not just a simple fist, but rather profound heart sex most powerful profound skill, purple cloud palm. Bang! The purple colored fist severely smashed deep into Liha's abdomen. Liha's complexion immediately became incomparably pale, barely letting out a groan as he was sent flying. He flipped several times in the air and violently crashed onto the floor. The blood in his chest rolled about and with a poo sound, he finally vomited out an arrow of blood. He laid face down on the floor with both hands clutching his stomach and was already unable to stand back up. Lihao, junior brother Lee. Two disciples from the new moon profound palace quickly rushed out to help support the defeated Lihao back. All the disciples from the new moon profound palace felt perturbed in their hearts. Lihao and Shu and Yu were of similar ages. Their profound strengths only differed by one rank. Even if he could not win, he should have at least been able to hold out for a while. However, just after the two faced off, Lihao had been utterly crushed. When they heard what happened 5 years ago, when the disciples of the seven sects had beaten their senior brothers and sisters 10 times in a row, they were discontent and refused to accept it in their hearts. But after the end of this first exchange of pointers, they all felt a chill in their hearts. You let me win. Shuan Yu smiled. In that earlier fight, from start to finish, he had not wasted a single bit of energy. Moreover, he still had not left the stage, but rather just stood where he originally was. As he looked towards the disciples of the New Moon Profound Palace and said, "I wonder who would be the next friend from New Moon Profound Palace that's coming to exchange some pointers. This kid seems like he's addicted to being in the limelight." A disciple of the Seven Deadly Sword Pavilion scoffed. Alas, there's no meaning in oppressing these rookies. This is just playing around. Another person sneered. To be defeated this fiercely with only two maneuvers, it made all the 16 years old disciples of New Moon Profound Palace nervous in their hearts. None of them dared to take the stage. This was because Lihao was considered the most powerful out of the 16-year-olds in New Moon Profound Palace. If any other 16-year-old were to go up, they would only be inviting humiliation. Huh? What's going on? Don't tell me friends from the new moon profound palace are all a bunch of turtles. Shu and Yujered, but had a sudden change in his facial expression and lightly slapped his own face. Look at this mouth of mine. It really doesn't know what it's saying. This is the profound palace appointed by the magnificent imperial family. The disciples are supposed to be the best. How can they be turtles? It must be that it's beneath them to advise this little brother. Now, how should we handle this? Little brother here is going to be bold and pick someone to challenge. If I win, it's naturally due to luck. But if I lose, I will immediately leave this stage and everyone present won't have to hear my jokes anymore. The people from the seven sex side immediately all bursted into laughter without even waiting for a response from New Moon Profound Palace's side. Chuanu extended his hand to point at a single person. That big-framed senior brother over there, from the looks of it, you must be quite powerful. Please advise this little brother here for a bit. The person he had pointed to was none other than Zia Yuanba. As Lihao, the strongest 16-year-old in the profound department, got so easily beaten by an opponent of the same age, Zeia Yuanba vigorously gritted his teeth in secret. He hated how his profound strength was meager, let alone recover face for Lihao and New Moon profound palace. He didn't even have the qualifications to challenge Kuan Yu. But he had never thought that Shuan Yu would actually direct the spearhead at him. Looking at Shuan Yu<unk>s fingertips, Zia Yuan's eyes widened and instantly became stupified. Also, this Shuan Yu actually called him big-framed senior brother. All the gazes concentrated onto Yuan's body at once. All the elders in New Moon Profound Palace suddenly knitted their brows greatly, and the disciples were also struck dumb. None of them had expected that Kuan Yu would challenge Zia Yuanba, who was actually only 15 years old and only came to to spectate. Although with that astonishing figure of Zia Yuan, it really was impossible for people who wasn't familiar with him to know that he was only 15. Even mistaking him as being 18 or 19 would be normal. Sikong Han spoke up. This is my palace disciple Zia Yuan. However, you shouldn't call him senior brother. Although his build is excessively burly, he's still only 15 this year and is the youngest in my palace. 15 years old. Many people from the seven profound sex almost sprayed out the tea in their mouth. Shuan Yu had also immediately became flabbergasted. Yuan, since this profound heartsect disciple wants to spar with you, you should calmly accept the challenge. Sikong Han turned around and said, "You are younger in age, so there is no need to be ashamed. Even if you lose, just do your best." Yes, Elder. Zia Yua nodded and stood up. As the huge body that neared 2 m and 30 cm stood up, many people in the palace were immediately taken aback. Yani tapped him once and said in a low voice, "Be careful. Don't get injured." He he, "Don't [clears throat] worry. Even though my profound strength is no good, my body is still really tough." Zia Yuana tapped his chest with confidence and walked to the center of the main palace. He stood in front of Chuan Yu and spoke. My name is Zia Yuanba from profound department class 115 this year. Please give me your guidance. Shuanu clearly had wanted to challenge someone older to show off but didn't expect the giant he chose that looked 18 was actually only 15 years old. A 16-year-old fighting against a 15year-old. There wouldn't be any glory to talk about even if he had won. As he arbitrarily measured the opponent's profound power, the corner of his mouth instantly twitched a bit. only the sixth level of the elementary profound realm. Choosing an opponent like this, it was virtually degrading his social status. That fool, I knew something would happen if he attended this banquet. If we let others know about that, even someone at the sixth level of elementary profound realm could enter as an elite disciple. Wouldn't we become a huge laughingtock? Hmp, what a disgrace. A low, disdainful sneer filled with contempt slowly traveled into Yani's ears. Yani's gaze peered off to the side, apathetically glanced at Murang Yi. Then he retracted his gaze and concentrated onto Zia Yuanba's figure. Murang Yi, who had just shut his trap, suddenly felt a chill, and his entire body violently shook a bit. He panically turned around and checked the surroundings while his heart palpitated like crazy. Just a moment ago, he felt as if he suddenly dropped into an extremely cold ice hole and also felt as if a terrifying viper had locked him down with its eyes. But no matter where he looked, he couldn't find any abnormalities in his surroundings. The flash of that frightening feeling had also started to die down. Murang Yi touched the cold sweat on his forehead that had been formed who knows when, and genuinely thought that he was just being paranoid. Haha, cutting mountains, splitting boulders. Zia Yuanba struck first with both of his hands clenched into fists. His enormous body leaped up and violently crashed down. Adding his body together with that intangible sense of pressure. It really had some kind of resemblance to cutting mountains splitting boulders. He actually had the face to show off such a trashy profound skill. If Chuan Yu lets him use more than three moves before defeating him, he'll never have the face to meet anyone outside again. Sneered a senior disciple of profound heart sect. When faced with the enormous force of Zia Yuamba's attack, Shu and Yu didn't attempt to dodge at all and didn't even assume a profound skills pose. He simply raised his right arm horizontally while standing in place and plainly blocked toward Zia Yuamba's heavy strike that appeared to be extremely ferocious. The corner of his lips revealed a faint smile of disdain. With a dull sound, both of Xiaua's fists violently smashed onto Chuan Yu<unk>s arm. Shuan Yu<unk>s forearm sank a little, then suddenly flipped upwards like a snake that just had awoken and immediately locked both of Zia Yuan's robust arms between his forearm and upper arm. Then his profound energy abruptly flared up. Kacha Uwa Yuanba Yani immediately stood up. In the wake of Zia Yuan's scream of agony, both of his arms were dislocated in an instant. Shuan Yu swung out his arm and actually managed to throw Zia Yuanba's body that weighed over 175 kilos upwards for over a meter. Normally, a spar should have ended here. Zia Yuanba's defeat after a single move was a result that wasn't out of anyone's expectations. A powerful foundation, profound arts, and profound skills allowed Kuan Yu to defeat someone who was only one level lower with just two maneuvers. Not to mention Zia Yuanba, who was only at the sixth level of Elementary Profound Realm. However, when Zia Yuanba's body was still in the air and about to heavily fall to the ground, the corner of Kuan Yu<unk>s mouth suddenly formed into a shady grin as his right fist flashed with a purple light. Yani immediately detected Kuan Yu<unk>s intent and promptly shouted, "Stop!" But how would Kuan Yu listen to him? An unrestrained purple cloud palm violently smashed onto Zia's body. that was just about to hit the ground. The sound of at least three ribs breaking clearly resounded. Yuanba. Not caring about anything else, Yani jumped over next to Yuanba's body with a single leap and supported his falling body. As Zia Yuan touched the ground, his complexion had already become ghastly white. Blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth and his face was twisted because of the intense pain. Although Zia Yuanba's body appeared to be robust, his protective profound energy was still too weak. It was impossible for him to endure Shuan Yu<unk>s heavy strike. Yan Chi looked at Shuan Yu, his eyes filled with rage as he spoke with a livid face. This competition is only a sparring session. The match is finished when the victor is obvious. The victor was clear just now. Why would you still strike him that heavily? He Chuanu made a sneer of disdain. It's true that it was a spar, but swords are without eyes and fists are hard to restrain. This is a principle that anyone would know. There are even occasions where lives are lost because of the difficulty of holding back during spars. It's normal to receive a little bit of injury. How could I have known that your new moon profound palace's elite disciples were this fragile? Bones broke and spewing blood just from one or two moves. You guys aren't blaming yourselves for your uselessness, but instead criticize me. Haha. What junior brother Kuanu said is too right. During spars between our fellow apprentices, breaking a few bones is only a common occurrence. That's what you call a real spar. New moon profound palace can't even handle a little injury. No wonder it had always been incompetent tests. If I were to say little brother Kuan Yu was already merciful enough. If little brother Kuan Yu had used all of his strength with just that sixth level of elementary profound realms protective profound energy, would that brat even be alive right now? Earpiercing voices of mockery came from the seven sex side. New moon profound palaces elders could only shake their head and sigh helplessly. Yani's deep rage made him reveal a smile instead. He carried Zia Yuana next to Lan Zuri who was the closest to him. Senior Sister Zuri, may I trouble you to look after Yuanba? Okay. Lan Zurio hastily walked down, took out a pearl white medicinal pellet, and fed it into Zia Yuanba's mouth. As she raised her head, she discovered that Yani had already stood up and walked toward Chuan Yu. What a great swords are without eyes, and fists are hard to restrain. Yani stood in front of Chuan Yu, and his face had already become impeccably calm. He stared at this person who dared to maliciously injure Zia Yuan in front of him and spoke with an indifferent tone. You better remember this sentence you had just said. Next, I'll be your opponent. Yani, profound department class 1, 16 years old. Who is this youth? While only 16, he's already at first level of the naent profound realm. And the thickness of his profound energy is even a little higher than Lihao. Why haven't I seen him before? There's no need to think too much. He's definitely a disciple in our profound department. He is my old friend's grandson and had just joined us today at noon. Sikong Han explained to the other elders. However, his expression was full of concern. Although Yani's profound energy was slightly stronger than Lihao, it was only by a little bit and wouldn't make much of a difference. Lihao was heavily wounded facing Shuan Yu, which meant that there shouldn't be a different result with Yani. At most, he would be able to endure a few more rounds. If he let Yani be injured right as he joined the profound department, he wouldn't be able to face Xioi. However, in this kind of situation, the person being challenged must accept the challenge, and it's even harder to stop the challenger that stood out. He could only watch with open eyes and pray that Yani doesn't get too severe of an injury. "Brother, be careful. He He's too strong." Zia Yuanba said in a painful voice as he held onto his chest. Shuan Yu froze for a bit when he heard Yani's statement and then started laughing as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world. Don't tell me that you're trying to warn me. Threaten me. An eye for an eye. Haha. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. With just you had haha. Although Kuan Yu<unk>s laugh was unbridled and harsh to the ear, there were no one that felt his laugh was presumptuous and baseless. Only after laughing for a long while did he finally say with contempt, "Tusk Tusk, I didn't expect that in New Moon Profound Palaces 16-year-olds, there is actually someone that can be matched with Lihao. This kind of level in New Moon City is actually quite good, but it's too bad that you've met me today. Since you had the guts to challenge me, how about I give you an advantage?" Shuan Yu slowly extended five fingers and shook them in front of Yani. Five moves? If you can cross five moves with me, you'll be considered as the winner of this spar. How about it? Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Junior brother Chu and Yu. You're thinking too highly of him. A wave of laughter erupted from the side of profound heart sect. The main seat of this banquet. Chin Wu who didn't speak at all since the beginning of the exchange of pointers. Finally had some shifts in expression. He silently looked at Yani's gaze that didn't waver in the slightest under kua and use laughter and mocking and exclaimed in his heart. This little fellow is not simple by any means. Are you finished with your nonsense? Yani coldly spoke. Oh, your name was uh Yani, right? Don't just stand there. If you want to start, then come attack me anytime. At least you'll get to attack once that way. If I strike first, you may not even have a chance to strike anymore. Shuan Yu said with a grin as he crossed his arms in front of his chest. He Yani also laughed. He didn't say a word more. All of a sudden, his body lunged forward as his left hand extended forward and grabbed straight for Shuan Yu<unk>s neck. What? You don't even have any profound skills? Shuan Yu<unk>s laugh became even more mocking. His eyes half narrowed, and only until Yani<unk>s arm was just 2 ft away from his face did he start to move. His right hand shot out like a lightning grabbed toward Yanchi's left wrist and precisely caught his left hand in the palm of his hand. A trace of a shady grin flashed in the corner of Ku and Yu's mouth just as he was about to channel his profound energy to snap Yani's wrist. The palm of his hand that had clearly caught Yunch wrist instead felt empty. His five fingers passed through Yanchi's wrist and fiercely grabbed the empty space. As for Yoni's body, it had also disappeared as if turned into mist. At the same time, a strong gust of wind came from his right side, with his mind still boggled. How could he even react? Pa. A incomparably loud sound of a slap to the face resounded throughout every corner of the main palace. Everyone had clearly heard it. The sound was so distinctive, it was as if their own face had been slapped. The entirety of Chu and Yu was sent flying and finally heavily crashed onto the ground after spinning a full 1440° in midair. For this slap, Yani didn't holding back a single ounce of his strength. He rubbed the back of his hand that became a little red on his clothes with disgust and spoke indifferently. First move. This merciless slap to the face straight up dumbfounded Kuan Yu as well as everyone present. At first, they had expected that Yani would suffer a disastrous defeat or even get severely injured in just a few moves. None of them had thought that in their first round of exchange, Yani actually gave Kuan Yu a merciless slap to the face, and the sound of the slap couldn't be any louder either. All of the people from the seven major sects were completely stupified. New Moon Profound Palaces disciples and elders were also collectively flabbergasted. For a moment, their brain promptly froze and couldn't make any turns for a long time. Only until the words first move exited indifferently from Yani's mouth did they finally wake up as if they had been in a deep dream. After finally confirming what had happened was actually real, every one of them opened their eyes wide. Both Lihao and Zia Yuan suffered a crushing defeat. This together with Kuwan use endless provocation and mockery made new moon profound palace disciples hold a belly full of anger and humiliation. But they couldn't do anything at all to regain their face. Seeing this ruthless slap to the face by Yi soothed their entire body all the way down to their bone marrows. The delightfulness they experienced from head to toe couldn't even be described in words. If not out of concern of this banquet, they would have straight up shouted out to cheer. One after the other, the seven sects, especially the profound heart clan, looked at each other's faces in dismay. Shu and Yu, who was impressively at the second level of nent profound realm, who also carried the sects profound arts and skills, actually had gotten fiercely slapped in the face by a first ranker of the nent profound realm, who had absolutely no traces of any profound art on his body. Was this a joke earlier? That was a profound movement skill. Elder Sikkong, did you see his movements clearly? An elder of New Moon Profound Palace asked in a low voice. Completely did not. Moreover, I've never seen that movement skill before either. Sigang Han spoke with a quiet voice. His gaze that looked at Yani was now far different from before. Shuan Yu crawled back up from the ground while floundering. The entire right side of his face had already swelled up high and became as red as a monkeykey's buttocks. Just earlier, he was talking big, but in a blink of an eye, he was slapped in the face by someone during this kind of occasion. This could be said as a humiliation, Kuwan, you had never received in his entire lifetime. He furiously stared at Yanqi, his gaze impeccably pernicious. However, he managed to suppress it and didn't lose the basics of his demeanor. While forcing himself to smile, he said, "Good. Very good. I had deliberately left you an opening at first so you could at least exchange a few moves and not lose too much face. But since you couldn't tell what's good for you at all, get ready to face the consequences of angering me. Yani shook his right hand. Apathetically glanced at him and said with disdain, "Moron, you're courting death." Shuan Yu was completely enraged. With a low roar, he raised both of his hands and took the initiative to charge at Yani. At the same time, purple light flashed above both his left and right palm. Then both fists simultaneously extended and smashed toward Yani. Under the purple sun profound art, Chuan used two hands contained a force of at least 500 kilos. Junior brother Yan, be careful. Lan Zuru subconsciously cried out in shock. Since she sat in the frontmost row, it was enough for her to clearly feel how enormous of a power had been concentrated on Tukshu and Yu<unk>s hands at this moment. At the same time, the hearts of new moon profound palaces elders and disciple had also suspended. Shuan Yu<unk>s true strength was obvious. About that round just a moment ago, it was extremely possible that Shuan Yu had only been underestimating enemy and got careless against the Shuan Yu who was now enraged. Was it even possible for Yani to still handle him? Die. Kuan Yu<unk>s eyes glinted with maliciousness. The earlier humiliation made the intention to kill Yani rise from his heart. Although he didn't really dare to kill someone within New Moon profound palace, he still had the confidence that this strike was enough to Yan Chi for life. Under the enormous pressure, it was as if Yani couldn't move at all from the suppression, and there weren't any signs of a defensive posture. Shuan used two fists directly smashed onto Yani's chest without difficulty and then passed right through his body. Wh Shuan Yu<unk>s eyes suddenly bulged wide open as his body also tilted forward from the inertia. At this time, a sharp sound of wind came breaking through the air from his left side. PA. Another deafening slap to the face that couldn't be any louder, clearly resounded throughout the entire main palace. Yet again, Shuan Yu<unk>s body once more flew. After magnificently spinning four rotations in the air, he face planted onto the ground jaw first like a poop eating dog. The left side of his face had also increasingly swelled and became as red as blood. "Second move," Yani leisurely said as he gently blew on the back of his left hand. All of New Moon Profound Palace's disciples opened their eyes wide and two words collectively sounded in their heart. Holy If the first time was said to be because of carelessness, luck or coincidence, then the second time definitely could not be explained using words like careless, luck, or coincidence. The Lihao who was defeated by Kuan Yu had not left and was only carried to the back for treatment. As he watched Shuan Yu get slapped flying once more with open eyes, his entire face became thoroughly red from excitement to the point that he couldn't even feel the intense pain on his body anymore. He yelled out uncontrollably, "What a great hit." That hit was F-seeking refreshing. How stress relieving. He he the person currently treating Liha's injuries was Liha's cousin Lee Hayorin. As he heard Liha's speech, he laughed gleefully and leisurely spoke. "Little how, I can tell with just one glance that you're still lacking." Junior Brother Yun<unk>s hit was not only great, refreshing, stress relieving, but also extremely clever. Look at that Chuanu's face. First slap, his right cheek became a monkeykey's butt. Second hit, his left cheek became another monkeykey's butt. That color, that swollen shape, that position, and that height, it's exactly identical to the right side. And that's what you call symmetry. Look at Shu and use face again. It all of a sudden feels much more balanced than before. These are not a mere two slaps to the face, but a perfected art of face slapping. The strength, position, and angle all requires extreme precision. It's definitely not something that just anyone could slap out. It really is too marvelous to express with words. PFT. Liorin's voice was not quiet at all, and more than half the people present within the palace heard it clearly. Many had lost it on the spot, and some profound department disciples held their stomach, trying hard not to laugh out loud as they raised their thumbs at Li Hayorin. Ha! Haha! Although his innards pained whenever he laughed, Lihao was laughing with extraordinary glee. "He as expected, cousin's level really is much higher. In any case, it doesn't matter whether junior brother Yan wins or loses. I'll definitely become friends with him." Shuan Yu awkwardly stumbled back up again and forcibly swallowed down three of his teeth along with his blood. He fixed his bulging eyes at Yani, wishing that he could rip him apart just by his gaze alone. At the same time, he was also astonished inside his heart. Just now, how did he appear on my left? His body was obviously still at that original spot. Twice I had clearly struck him, yet how did I hit empty space instead? Did something go wrong with my eyes? Or was it a profound movement skill? But how could such a profound movement skill exist? Jasmine had told Yani before, "If Star God's Broken Shadow was only cultivated to the first realm, he could already hold his ground against two opponents of the same level simultaneously. When cultivated to the third realm, even if he was facing against an opponent that's five levels higher, he would still be able to retreat uninjured. Star gods Broken Shadows had eight realms in total. Jasmine has currently cultivated it to the sixth realm and could break into six phantoms that were difficult to distinguish real from fake. The current Yani had mastered the first realm and could only break into one after image. However, although it was only the first realm, it's still a profound skill that came from Jasmine. How could it be compared to normal movement profound skills? Let alone Kuan Yu who was at the nent profound realm. Even the palace chiefs at the spirit profound realm and earth profound realm was basically unable to clearly see Yanchi's movement. The bewilderment in their heart far surpassed those of the young disciples. How do your teeth taste? Yani narrowed his eyes and mercilessly ridiculed him. He he he shuanu wiped the corner of his mouth and instead laughed. Yani to force me into such an embarrassed state. You can be considered the first and so you will die miserably, very miserably. Before Kuan Yu had even finished speaking his malicious words, Yani's silhouette suddenly swayed in his vision and already dashed in his direction. Shuan Yu<unk>s expression sank as both of his arms abruptly drew a half circle toward his front. This time, he had learned his lesson and directly used the purple sun arts to envelop the three directions of the front, left, and right side. No matter which position Yanqi suddenly moved to, if he touched the purple sun profound energy, he would instantly receive his powerful counterattack. He was confident in that one move. With just a single move, he would be able to pound Yani onto the ground to the point of not even being able to crawl back up. Yani's silhouette disappeared just like before as he came in contact with the purple sun profound energy in front of him. Shuan Yu<unk>s complexion darkened and instantly focused his concentration to his left and right side. However, this time the strong gust of wind actually whistled from above. Bang! Yani, who broke and shadowed into the air, ruthlessly kicked Akshu and Yu's right eye. His body back flipped in place, and he once more landed jaw first onto the ground as a bloody tooth flew out right away. When Yani landed on his feet, he nearly stepped on his head. As his vision swept downwards, he spoke languidly. Third move, you bastard. Ah, bang. Just as Kuan Yu was about to crawl back up, Yani's feet abruptly flew out and kicked Kuan Yu<unk>s left eye. His body that was half raised splendidly performed a backflip again as both his eyes suddenly became like that of a pandas. Did your master not teach you to stay concentrated in any situation? Fourth move. Uwa, I'll kill you. His entire face was impeccably red and swollen. Both of his eye sockets became black and blue. Shuan Yu's face that originally brimmed with heroic spirit had now become neither like a human nor a demon. It was miserable to the max. As he stood up, his face that was already terrifying became even more sinister. All of his profound energy frantically flowed out, and it was as if his entire person stood on the brink of insanity. Purple sun thousand phantom hands. Shuan Yu horsely roared and rushed at Yani. Under the purple sun arts, both of his arms had almost become completely purple. It's<unk> one of profound heart sex ultimate moves. Purple sun thousand phantom hands. Yani beware. Sikong Han instantly stood up as he yelled in shock. Shu and Yu<unk>s arms swung out quickly and launched countless purple shades of light that wildly enveloped in Yani's direction. Yani didn't retreat nor dodge. His eyes narrowed down into a slit as his right hand extended through the lines of purple light and smashed the place above Ku and Yu's elbow with just the right amount of force. This profound heart sex purple sun art uses the three veins purple sun, fu jang, and tian to consolidate energy while using the purple sun vein as core. If the purple sun vein is shaken, the purple sun art would immediately disintegrate and all the profound energy in the entire body would temporarily be in disorder. At the same time, when the purple sun art is activated, the position 2 in above his chest that connects to the purple sun vein would flood all the protective profound energy into the purple sun vein. That place then can be considered as completely defenseless. This was what Jasmine had informed him just a moment ago. The place that Yuan Chi heavily smashed was exactly Kuan Yu's purple sun vein. Immediately, Shuan Yu<unk>s entire arm was paralyzed. All of the purple energy instantaneously vanished as the profound energy in his entire body went into a state of chaos, making Kuan Yu's body freeze for a brief period of time. And in this exact brief moment, that Yani stepped forward and fiercely smashed his elbow onto the location slightly above the center of his chest. Crack. Chuan Yu's sternum was instantly shattered and dislocated. His entire body flew into the air like a dead leaf in the wind. As he flew backwards, he violently vomited a bloody arrow out from his mouth. After that, he fell onto the ground like a sandbag. His entire body convulsed twice and became incapable of getting back up. Fifth move. Tusk Tusk. This profound heart sex brother, you really kept to his words. He previously said that he'd let me win after five moves, and it really took five moves for me to win, not one more and not one less. Brother Chuan Yu<unk>s promises are truly admirable. You Shuan Yu extended his hand and pointed at Yani as his entire body trembled. But after just saying the one word, "You." His eyes rolled backwards until only the whites of the eyes could be seen. His head tilted at an angle and he immediately passed out. No one knew whether he had fainted due to the injury or due to anger. Chu and Yu, profound heartsect disciples were all startled. Two people hastily stepped up to pick up Chu and Yu<unk>s body that fell to the ground and consecutively fed him three medicinal pellets into his mouth. One of them looked up, glared at Yani, and furiously spoke. During this exchange of pointers amongst those of the same age, you actually acted this viciously. If anything happens to Chu and Yu, my profound heart sect will definitely not let you off. Oh, I don't understand what you're saying, Yani replied with a sneer. Yes, we were exchanging pointers, but swords are without eyes, and fists are hard to restrain. While exchanging pointers, there are even occasions where lives are lost because of the difficulty of holding back during spars. It's normal to receive a little bit of injury. How was I supposed to know that your profound heart sex disciple was this fragile? Bones breaking and coughing up blood just from five moves? Why aren't you blaming your useless disciple instead of trying to criticize me? The arrogant words that Kuan Yu had originally said after inflicting wounds upon Lihao and Zia Yuana earlier, Yani sent them back word by word. And not only was it merely his words that were returned, but it was even more so a resounding slap to the face. Yani's words made the hearts of New Moon profound palace disciples feel incomparably refreshed. Lihao<unk>s injuries had already stabilized as he straightened his back, clenched his fist tightly, and watched the pitiful scenery of Ku and Yu that passed out on the floor. Never in his life had he vented so much anger. He felt extremely grateful towards Yani because he knew that if it wasn't for Yani, he would never in this lifetime have the chance to pay back this debt to Shu and Yu, let alone pay it back in folds. Five moves to win. The first two were two slaps on the face. The second two was a pair of panda eyes, and the final one was an immediate knockout. How was this an exchange of pointers? This was a humiliation comparable to being skinned alive. When cursing, one shouldn't pinpoint shortcomings, and when striking, one shouldn't strike the face. However, Yani took it all out on Kuan Yu's face. It was not because Yani had vicious intentions. It was due to Kuan Yu's malicious intentions which severely injured Zia Yuamba, that stirred his true fury. As disciples of the profound heart sect, how could they still keep a steady face when their hearts overflowed with rage when they've been ridiculed by a disciple of new moon profound palace whom they had always looked down upon? One amongst them abruptly stood up and spoke while facing Chin Wu. Palace Chief Chin, today is your appointment date, and us profound heart sect came here in good faith to sincerely congratulate you. Our disciples exchanging pointers was also just to liven things up. But not only did your disciple act viciously, he even insulted my profound heart sex disciples. If I may ask, is this how your new moon profound palace shows hospitality? Chin Wu had not even replied yet. Yani had actually started to laugh heartily. I really don't know how thick the skin on your face has to be to actually dare say such a thing. Your profound heart sect disciple Chuan, you seriously injured two of our new moon profound palace disciples in a row. You'd have to be blind to not have seen him maliciously injure them on purpose. Furthermore, he even mocked and ridiculed our new moon profound palace. But no one from your sect stopped him and instead laughed and jeered on. So, is this the sincerity your profound heart sect was talking about? Such a joke is even worse than a load of bull. Chin Wu intended to get up, but after hearing Yani's retort, he sat back down with a smile. He sat as motionless as a mountain, but was secretly surprised. this kid. You, the person from Profound Heart Sect, never would have thought that a young disciple from New Moon Profound Palace would actually dare to point at his nose and condemn him. In addition, every single sentence hit the vitals and left him with no rebuttal. At the moment, I've only just injured one of your disciples, and you guys started to jumped out to question our palace chief Chin. In that case, when Chu and you injured our disciples earlier, where were you guys then? Were your eyes all blind? Or is it that this is your profound heart sex style all along? Yani insidiously continued and didn't stop as he was ahead. For a long time now, New Moon profound palace disciples had always felt a sense of inferiority when confronted with the seven sects. Even if the seven sects openly or covertly suppressed them, they had no choice but to endure because they were unwilling to spark conflict with any one of the seven sects. Not mentioning the disciples, even the elders would not dare to berate the seven sects in this way. But Yani had just joined the profound palace and was only a 16-year-old disciple. Nevertheless, in the presence of profound hearts head elder, he had pointed at the profound heart sex disciple and scolded him until his entire body trembled all over. The rest of the people from profound heartsect were livid. Satisfaction. Genuine satisfaction. The people from profound heart sect had unsightly looks as if they had just eaten a pile of dung. Whereas the new moon profound palace disciples hearts were satisfied to the point that their bodies had almost floated away. New moon profound palace was completely reasonable in this matter. Shuan Yu maliciously injuring people was plain for all to see. Even though it was so, excluding Yani, no one else dared to berate and mock profound heart sect in this way. But Yani dared to. He had yelled out what they had not dared to yell out. And he had condemned the people they had not dared to condemn. Ah, it really is a newborn calf who's not afraid of a tiger, stated a middle-aged man from the Xioex outer sect. His imposing manner is not bad, and his innate ability is passable for New Moon profound palace to produce a disciple like this is rather rare. X Luang held onto a cup of wine as he squinted his eyes to appreciate the small ripples at the center and appeared as if he wasn't concerned about what had just happened in the main palace. Unfortunately, he is a little insolent and foolish to dare to offend profound heart sect in this way. Does he really believe that New Moon Profound Palace is capable of protecting him? The complexion of New Moon Profound Palace elders fluctuated. Yani defeating Chuan Yu allowed New Moon Profound Palace to let out a huge breath of relief. What he had said after that had let them feel even more refreshed at heart. But this had put profound heart sect on the spot. Profound heart sect was one of the seven major sects of New Moon City. And for them a colossus in this city to be offended by a mere 16 years old this way. Even New Moon profound palace may not be able to guarantee his safety. The gaze of the profound heartsect that looked toward Yani became solemn. Yet Yani appeared as if he was oblivious to this. He slightly turned his body, looked at everyone present, and proudly stated, "Our New Moon Profound Palace is appointed by the Imperial family, but naturally cannot compare to the resources and heritage of your long-standing sects." However, our new moon profound palace disciples will never consider themselves inferior to anyone whatsoever and definitely will not stand being bullied or humiliated. One that humiliates will in turn be humiliated for profound heart sex and you to maliciously injure my senior and junior in front of my eyes. As a new moon profound palace disciple, there's no reason for me to treat him with courtesy. Otherwise, wouldn't New Moon City ridicule New Moon profound palace disciples as cowards who can only submit even after being bullied and humiliated? If you're discontent and is incapable of accepting this, you can come up and give me some guidance. I've heard that there are quite a number of talents in New Moon City's seven major sects. Since I am just an ordinary disciple from New Moon Profound Palace, I really want to know how many people would you need to make me step down from here. These words violently stirred the expressions of everyone in the main palace. If the preceding parts of this statement was an impassioned speech, then the last sentence was complete arrogance. Complete arrogance to the extreme. Because hidden meaning within these words meant that an ordinary disciple of New Moon profound palace was unexpectedly challenging the seven major sects in contempt. What a complete fool. Mirangi snorted from his nose and said while sneering. Even if Junior brother Yan was bathing in the limelight just now, this is too arrogant and reckless. That was what the majority of New Moon profound palace disciples thought in their hearts. Especially the disciples who have been in New Moon City for a long time. They clearly knew the astonishing strength the seven major sects possessed. Although Yani defeated Kuan Yu, he was still only at the first level of the nent profound realm. any one talent from the seven major sects of the same age group could completely oppress him. Not only were his words ridiculing it also humiliated himself. This this this Sikong Han's face was full of anxiety as his body trembled. He could not help himself from wanting to get up to stop Yanqi. But in this kind of situation, it was fundamentally impossible for him to say something to stop him. Apparently, calling him foolish is still thinking too highly of him. He's a total X Luang put down the cup of wine as he laughed in disdain. A 16-year-old breaking into the first level of the naent profound of realm was indeed considered a pretty good innate talent. Even in the seven major sexs, he would be classified as top tier. However, to lean on this one fact and dare be this arrogant, it was practically the same as a little clown's animated performance. While also at the age of 16, Xio Luang was already the number one in this generation of youths in New Moon City. And this was because he was already at the 10th level of the nent profound realm. He nearly surpassed Yani by an entire realm. Considering his level, when faced with Yani's current attitude and words, it indeed was like a genuinely strong practitioner looking at an arrogant little clown. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, you're killing me. The fact that a loser at the first level of the nent profound realm who luckily defeated profound heart sex shu and you with a profound movement skill would actually dare be this arrogant. He truly can't tell the differences between heaven and earth. Watch your daddy come teach you a lesson. Following this voice full of ridicule, a lone person leapt high in the air and landed in front of Yani. A youngster provocatively stared at him with disdain. Once he appeared, quite a few people from New Moon Profound Palace immediately yelled out his name. It's Cloudy Sun Sex Yanming. It said that his innate talent is ranked in the top five of Cloudy Sun sects younger generation. Only 16 years old and is already a third ranker of the nent profound realm, who has even mastered a bit of the burning sun art. Yanming raised his palm, and after a poof sounded from the hollow of his palm, a red colored flame rose to about half a foot high. Yanming, cloudy sun sect, 16 years and 7 months old. Remember this uncle's name because this uncle is about to teach you how to behave. He really faced with Yanming<unk>s fire attribute profound art. Yani undauntingly sneered. I'm afraid that in the end you're the one who's going to be taught how to behave. He thought to himself, playing with fire in front of me. That's simply dying without even knowing how you died. Seems like you're only full of words. Hey, properly use that profound movement skill from earlier because that'll only let you hold out for a little while longer. Come run along in the wake of my flame and let all these people see your fleeting figure. Haha. Cloudy sun chain. Amidst his wild laughter, both of Yan Ming<unk>s hands suddenly lashed out. Within a split second, two waves of scorching energy with the thickness of an arm each shot out from his palms as two flaming chains ferociously crossed a few meters to wrap toward Yanchi's body. Cloudy sun chain. He actually used Cloudy Sunseek signature skill. Yanming is only at the third level of the nent profound realm. Yet, he's already able to use such a frightening fire attribute profound skill. That's simply unbelievable. New moon profound palaces class 2 elder said in alarm. With this level of cloudy sun chain, it would even be hard for those in the sixth level of the naent profound realm to resist Yanqi this time. I hope his profound movement skill will be able to keep him from getting a severe injury, sighed another elder, using cloudy sun chain to deal with an arrogant kid at the first level of the nent profound realm. That's as overkill as killing a chicken with a butcher knife meant for bulls. an 18-year-old disciple from Cloudy Sun, sect said as he curled his lips. Two whips of Cloudy Sun chains danced about like ferocious flame dragons as they emitted a temperature that could make one suffocate. Yani quickly dodged by moving three paces to the side, but it was as if the two chains had eyes. They suddenly changed directions and coiled towards Yani with an even faster speed. It appeared as if Yani couldn't dodge it anymore, for he actually reached out with his hands and directly grabbed at the chains. Fck. Does he not want his hands anymore? He must have been scared silly and completely lost his mind. With this, unless Yanming lets him go, the meridians in his arms will burn and he could be considered to be crippled for life. Seeing Yani's course of action, Yanming laughed in his heart. To actually attempt to grab my cloudy sun chains with your right hand. Ha. Everyone can clearly see that this was what you've brought upon yourself, and when your hand is crippled, it wouldn't be my fault at all. Many from New Moon Profound Palace's side cried out in shock. But in this brief flash of time, it was simply impossible for anyone to react, as Yani's hand had already tightly grabbed onto the two cloudy sun chains. Everyone from New Moon Profound Palace collectively held their breaths, and some of the female disciples had already shut their eyes, unable to bear to watch what was about to unfold. However, there was no sound of being burnt, nor did Yani's palm emit any smoke, nor did his palm catch on fire. In the instant Yani had seized the two chains, the cloudy sun chains were like two noodles that could snap with just a slight tug and immediately broke apart in Yanchi's hands. Wh what? As they watched the terrifying cloudy sun chains unexpectedly break just like that in Yani's hands, everyone's face had an expression of shock. Yanming<unk>s eyes opened even wider as he simply didn't dare to believe his own eyes. How? How is that possible? That was one of Cloudy Sunseeks ultimate moves. The chain of fire that was consolidated using profound energy has a temperature that even surpasses real flames. And it also possesses a strong devouring nature. How did it break just from one touch of Yanchi's hands? An elder of the new moon profound palace said in bewilderment. The elders on Cloudy Sunseeks side were even more so blown away that they turned pale and lost their composure. Head Elder Yanziz abruptly stood up and almost believed that something went wrong with his own eyes. The disciple by his side quickly stated, "Eldder, there is no need to panic. After all, junior brother Yanming is only at the third level of nent profound realm. It's still a little bit far-fetched for him to control the cloudy sun chain. Therefore, the chain may have snapped because of insufficient profound strength. HMPH purposefully showing off while not even having sufficient profound energy. It's as if he's asking to be scoffed at. Yanzai coldly snorted. The situation before his eyes could only be explained in this way. It was impossible for him to believe that Yani, who was only at the first level of naent profound realm, could sever the cloudy sun chains with his bare hands, and furthermore have his entire hand remain unscathed. Yani clapped his hands and spoke while laughing heartily. Brother Yanming is really impressive at circus acts. With your skills from earlier, Tusk Tusk, it's really a waste to not go perform on the streets. This This is impossible. Yanming<unk>s heart was filled dismay. Others couldn't tell, but he clearly understood that his cloudy sun chain from before was released and executed with great success. It should have been completely enough to burn Yani's palm into a crisp as soon as it got in contact with his hands. There shouldn't be any reason for it to break so abruptly. Yani's mockery drove Yanming into a fit of rage. He spoke with a menacing expression. Don't get full of yourself. Just now, I was simply just casually probing your strength. I'll let you experience the real cloudy sun chain from my cloudy sun sect right this instant. Although firm words came out of his mouth, the previous failure made him lose his confidence. He no longer dared to simultaneously channel two cloudy sun chains in both hands, but rather growled lowly as a thick and strong chain of fire abruptly swung out from his right palm towards Yani like a dancing fire snake. This time, Yani didn't even move. The cloudy sun chain quickly approached and then wrapped around his body in a flash. Yanming immediately felt a wave of joy in his heart. Just as he was about to detonate the fire profound energy, he suddenly saw the wrapped cloudy sun chain break apart into several segments like a rotten hemp rope under Yi's incredibly nonchalant tug. Afterwards, it completely extinguished. Yani had already become angry. He patted his clothes that were touched by the cloudy sun chain and furiously spoke. We came here to exchange pointers, but you're actually showing me circus tricks. This is simply a waste of everyone's time. I should just kick you off this stage sooner. With a low shout, Yani instantly appeared at Yanming<unk>s right with a star god's broken shadow and struck straight for his face with a fist concentrated in profound energy. Yanming, whose cloudy sun chain broke once again, was helplessly overwhelmed with shock and dismay. Due to his mind that was in state of panic, his reaction speed slowed down by half a beat. He didn't have enough time to counter or block and could only hastily retreat backwards. However, he was still struck solidly on the center of his chest by Yani's fist. Yanming<unk>s protective profound energy wavered. Although Yungi's profound strength was two ranks below him, getting hit by a heavy frontal strike all of a sudden was definitely unpleasant. Rage and embarrassment mingled in his heart, and with a shout of scorching fire fist, both his fists became concentrated in fire as he punched towards Yani. Yani slightly tilted his body and dodged Yanming<unk>s fists that burned with fire. He then suddenly raised his right hand and pressed onto Yanming<unk>s right arm that had swung out. The corner of his mouth drew back and faintly formed a cold smile. Aha! A dying pig's scream of agony resounded through the main palace. The Yanming who had just swung out the scorching fire fists kneelled on the ground amidst his blood curdling screech. As his left and right arms frantically lashed about, the flames on both of his hands had already vanished. However, there were actually wisps of rising black smoke above his five fingers, and a pungent burnt smell gradually spread inside the palace. Yanzi was greatly startled. In a flash, he dashed in front of Yanming. as if they were lightning. Both his hands pinched Yanming<unk>s pair of hands and quickly guided out the flame energy that permeated inside his hands. Yanming<unk>s expression of agony had finally somewhat lessened, but both of his hands were already less than half burnt. His five fingers exaggeratedly spread out and were twisted to such an extent that it would scare a person. Lines of black smoke still slowly permeated out of the burnt flesh on his hands. to actually let the flame energy rebound back to yourself. Did your cultivation during these few years all turn to dog Yanzai looked at Yanming and furiously bellowed with a livid face with not a care for where they were at this current occasion. As a disciple with a talent that ranked in the top five of the Cloudy Sun sects younger generation, not only did his Cloudy Sun chains break twice, he actually exhibited such a low-level and laughable mistake in front of everyone. He had virtually lost all of Cloudy Sun's sex prestige. Fire attribute profound arts could enable profound practitioners to consolidate fire using profound energy. But by no means did it mean that they themselves were invulnerable to fire. For instance, when Yanming condensed fire onto his hands earlier, there was also a layer of protective profound energy in between his hand and the flame. The embarrassing state that Yanming showed after using the scorching flame fist clearly seemed as if he wasn't able to adequately control the flame energy. The flame energy consolidated by profound energy was not entirely released outside. A part of it formed into the flames on his hands and another portion directly exploded inside his palms and scorched himself. But this kind of mistake would usually only happen within the first half year of practicing this fire attribute profound art. Also, the power of this fire was weak during this period of time. So, even if there was a mistake, it wouldn't do too much harm. After some time, controlling fire using profound energy would become as easy as controlling one's own hands and feet. This kind of joke-like mistake should fundamentally not occur. Of course, it was impossible for Yanzai to expect that during the split second Yani touched Yanming<unk>s arm, he had guided the fire from his hands into the interior of his palm. Even if Yani openly declared the truth right now, Yzi still wouldn't have believed him. Elder Eye, shut the hell up. Haven't<unk> you lost enough face? Why haven't you already gone off for treatment? Yanzi said with an angry tone of voice. Yanming obediently shut his mouth, drooped both his burnt hands, and walked back with his head down. He glanced at Yani and violently clenched his teeth. He instinctively felt that the shattering of cloudy sun chain and the rebounding of his profound fire had something to do with Yani. since it was impossible for him to make this kind of mistake otherwise. But even if he assumed that it had something to do with Yani, he simply couldn't find any justification for his reasoning. Yani was only at the first level of nent profound realm. How was it possible for him to have broken his cloudy sun chain with only bare hands, and it was even more impossible for him to cause the rebound of the profound fire? Heh, this brat, his luck isn't too bad. He actually met such an idiot. I had thought he'd already be paying the price for his arrogance from before. A middle-aged man in Xio sect snorted. He wouldn't be able to pass the next person. Xio Luang dispassionately smiled. New Moon Profound Palace's elders and disciples had also let out a long breath of relief. They had thought that Yani would definitely suffer a miserable defeat and may even be covered in burn injuries. They didn't expect that the opponent would make such a low-level mistake when using his sex profound art, which instead made it Yani's victory. Like this, Yani with his profound strength at the first level of the nent profound realm had now consecutively defeated one at the second level of the nent profound realm and another at the third level of the nent profound realm. This was definitely an impressive achievement that New Moon profound palace could be proud of. Yani crossed his arms in front of his chest. His face that seeped with a hint of immature aura currently had pride written all over it. That's already two. Who will be the third? This arrogant tone instigated a wave of snears from disciples of the seven sects. This who has no idea about the differences between heaven and earth and thinks too highly of his own abilities. Couldn't he see that the previous victory was only due to Yanming<unk>s low-level mistake that injured himself? Just as Yani's figure landed directly to his front, the disciple that appeared to be the youngest stood up from the Stormy Profound Palace's seats. Feng Guangi from Stormy Profound Palace 16 years old. This youth's build was not that tall, and his features were nothing special to look at either. He was also only 16, and of course, he also possessed the lofty aura that naturally came from being sought after by countless people while being only 16. He looked at Yani with an extremely disdainful gaze and said in an indifferent manner, "I originally didn't want to bother with you because you're not even worthy to be my opponent. It's just that I simply couldn't stand your arrogance anymore. You only won by luck against a second rate shu and you and even more luckily won against a joke of the cloudy son sect. Do you seriously think that you're someone important now? Unfortunately, in my eyes, you're also just a joke." Nicely said, "Kick him off." Did he really think that our seven sex don't have anyone else? MN although this Fangg Guangi had just become 16, he has already reached the third level of nent profound realm a few months ago. Rumors say that he's about to break through to the fourth level of nent profound realm. His innate talent definitely surpasses Yanming. It has also been said that his sense of perception is extremely high. And he has already cultivated his sex profound art, storm-piercing arts to its third stage, which even shocked the grand elders who had underwent closed door training for many years. I would guess that this arrogant Yani wouldn't even be able to cross 10 moves with him. 10 moves? You're thinking too highly of him. Five moves maximum and he'll be kicked off. Fangg Guangi<unk>s sarcastic speech was very irritating to the ear. Yet Yani didn't get angry in the slightest and replied to him with an even more sarcastic gaze and tone. Who will be the real joke in the end? You'll find out very soon. HMPH. Fangg Guangi sneered. If I can't make you roll off the stage in 10 moves, my name wouldn't be Fangg Guangi anymore. As he spoke, Fangg Guangi completely opened his half- narrowed eyes. All of a sudden, the clothing on his entire body started to flutter and made sounds as if they were being blown by a fierce wind. And around his body there indeed swirled a powerful whirlwind. Fangg Guang Yi raised up his gaze and disdainfully spoke. Brady Little Yani, remember this well. The profound skill that will make you roll off the stage is my stormy profound sex storm of nine forms. As his voice fell, Fangg Guangi<unk>s body ferociously charged toward Yani like a howling gale. During his extremely fast movements, his body was also continuously shifting directions, sometimes to the left and sometimes to the right. As the speed of his movements further increased, a large mass of an unidentifiable shadow appeared before Yani's eyes along with many circles of terrifying whirlwinds. First form, fierce wind form. With a loud shout, four strands of vicious, profound energy simultaneously flew toward Yani like were four gusts of fierce wind. As Yani knitted his brow, his silhouette quickly flashed and dodged three of the four. However, he was unable to avoid the fourth. His profound energy quickly welled up and constructed protective profound energy in front of his body with full force. Bang! As Yani took three consecutive steps backwards, his blood churned inside the center of his chest. Directly defending against profound energy of the third level of nent profound realm with the protective profound energy of the first level of nent profound realm was as expected a bit too far-fetched. Once was still doable, but if he was struck again, he would definitely be harmed. Second form, wind shadow form. The whirlwind blew even more viciously and fully filled Yani's ears with the howling of the wind. Fangg Guangi's speed had also increased to his limit. Yani's surroundings were entirely filled with Fangg Guangi's shadows. At this moment, a silhouette rushed toward his back like a violent storm. And as for Yani, he also turned around at nearly the same instant. The speed of Yani's reaction was completely out of Fangg Guangi<unk>s expectations. However, he was only slightly shocked for a little bit since he believed that even if Yani managed to react, it was impossible for him to dodge an attack with his maximum speed. His heavy blow violently smashed toward Yanchi's neck. However, during the instant that Yani turned around, his right fist also fiercely exploded out to meet Fangg Guanti's fist in a straight trajectory. What has he gone insane to actually go against Feng Guangi headon? If he had tried to protect himself with all of his profound energy, maybe he wouldn't get too severe of an injury. But Fangg Guangi is at the later third level of the nent profound realm. He's only at the first level of nent profound realm. Yet, he actually dares to go at him headon. He truly doesn't know the differences between heaven and earth. As the people from the palace saw this scene, they all knew that Yani was finished. If their fists collide, getting his wrist dislocated would be considered as getting off light, for it may even be directly shattered. Not only did Fangg Guangi's fist possess a strength that's two ranks above Yanchi's, it also carried the stormy, profound palac's powerful, profound art, but how could Yani possibly be this arrogant in his actions and speech without anything to back it up? In the instant before both Fangg Guangi<unk>s fist and his fist collided, a radiance suddenly flashed across his eyes. Inside his profound veins, amongst the big dipper-shaped gates that had always been closed, the first one quietly opened. Evil gods, seven realms, first realm, evil soul, open. In the instant the first gate opened, Yani faintly heard a quiet muffled sound from his profound veins. Right after, the profound energy inside the profound veins all of a sudden inflated. This inflation was not just a pure expansion. Even the density dramatically surged up to an astonishing degree. Volume and density skyrocketing up at the same time was a state that was completely against common sense. Yet at this moment, the fact that this state was occurring inside Yani's profound veins was the impeccable truth. And accompanying it was the complete berserking of Yanchi's profound energy. Jasmine had told Yi before, "The ability of evil god arts was precisely berserk. The profound energy would become crazily berserk. The ballistic profound energy flooded out from all 54 profound veins and instantly instilled into every corner of Yani's body. A terrifying feeling that his profound veins and body would possibly explode came to him. However, it was only almost exploding. Not anything that his profound veins and body can't completely endure. Jasmine had said that the current hymn could barely activate the first realm evil soul. And as expected, it was somewhat strained. Bang. Fangg Guangi and Yani<unk>s fists solidly clashed together and gave out a deafening dull sound of impact. This was a direct showdown of pure profound energy without any sort of trickery. Crack. The crisp sound of bones breaking reverberated. Everyone heard it clearly, and none were surprised. Subsequently, a incomparably shrill scream of agony resounded. Yet this scream made everyone become as dumbfounded as wooden chickens. because the one shrieking miserably was actually not Yan Chi, but Fangg Guangi. All four of his fingers except the thumb were shattered at the moment of the collision, and even his wrist was violently crunched backwards. However, Yani<unk>s fists did not stop here. After blowing away Fangg Guangi's fists, it continued onwards while carrying the berserking profound energy and harshly pounded onto his chest. Fangg Guangi's protective profound energy was shattered in an instant, as if it were as frail and thin as glass. He felt as if his chest was viciously smashed by an enormous boulder of over 15 tons. His entire body flew backwards like a falling leaf wrapped up in a fierce gale of wind as his back violently crashed into the supporting pillar in the center of the main palace. After bouncing a few meters off the pillar, he laid on the ground in a twisted posture with eyes that bulged wide open. He was incapable of standing up until quite a while. The main palace instantly became absolutely silent. Everyone present opened their mouths to an enormous length as they simply could not dare to believe the scene before their eyes. In a head-on match of pure profound power, a first ranker of nent profound realm had unexpectedly surpassed, had completely won against a third ranker of nent profound realm. Let alone those young disciples, even the elders that had experienced an innumerable amount of trials and hardships during their long lives, found it hard to believe. Yani slowly lowered his arms, concentrating his spirit and calming his energy. He shut the gate that was briefly opened. Instantly, the sharp swelling pain that covered his entire body and profound veins vanished along with it, and a faint feeling of exhaustion appeared. He took a few steps forward as he looking at Fangg Guangi whose gaze was full of shock, humiliation, and bewilderment. He indifferently spoke. I'm arrogant because I have enough strength that allows me to be arrogant. However, you acting arrogant in front of me is only asking to be disgraced. A dignified third ranker of nent profound realm actually lost this miserably in a battle of pure profound strength against a first ranker of nent profound realm. Do you know who's the real joke now? you. Fangg Guangi clenched his teeth and struggled to stand up. His right hand trembled under the extreme pain and his face was ghastly white. He knew clearly that from the exchange just now, he had sustained internal injuries that were not light at all. The main palace was still extremely quiet. The majority of the disciples of the seven sects were already thoroughly flabbergasted. Their sex had exchanged pointers often. So they were aware what kind of strength Fangg Guangi possessed, especially his storm of nine forms, which was enough to even force opponents two levels above him to become flustered. Yet he had only used his storm of nine forms to its second form and had already been utterly smashed into a battered condition by Yani's fist. Yani, you did you think you've really defeated me? Fangg Guangi became furious from embarrassment as his left hand tightly clenched. Earlier I was only careless and held back. Or else with only your first level of nent profound realm, how could you possibly be victorious against me? After finished speaking, he had already lifted his left hand and activated his profound art again, and circles of whirlwinds blew around his body. However, anyone could clearly see that the whirlwinds this time were nearly half as strong as before. It was evident that he had suffered some heavy injuries. Enough. The palace chief of stormy profound palace snorted coldly. Guang Yi, you've already lost. Hurry up and step down. Fangg Guang Yi<unk>s left hand tightened even more and said while clenching his teeth. Palace chief, this disciple didn't lose. I was only careless and underestimated the opponent. My storm of nine forms had only gotten to the second form. If I had completely casted it. Shut up. Stormy Profound Palace's palace chief had already became furious. That contest of pure profound strength earlier, unless one is blind, it was obvious whether or not you held back. A third ranker of nent profound realm lost against a first ranker of nent profound realm. Yet you're still looking for excuses. Do you think you haven't lost enough face for our stormy profound palace? Fangg Guangi's complexion suddenly darkened. He glared at Yani with eyes of hatred and walked back with his head lowered. Yani took out a low-level profound recovering pellet, swallowed it, and slowly recovered his profound energy. He then stood in the center of the main palace again, his eyes loftily swept toward the seven sex seedings as he aloofly said, "That's already three. The next one, who will it be?" He stood there like an arrogant king as he emitted a king's pride and shouted out a kingly declaration, "Who's next?" This was not only a prideful challenge, but also a taunt and slap to the face because he, a disciple that had just joined the new moon profound palace, actually had already consecutively defeated three disciples from their seven sects. Moreover, these three disciples were not just any common disciples. In the youth generation of New Moon City, they were famous and were all publicly recognized as geniuses. However, today they had fallen under this young cheese hands. Not only that, their opponent was merely at the first level of the nent profound realm. Everyone's gazes that looked at Yanqi all changed. His win against Chuan Yu could be because of him relying on that bizarre profound movement skill and catching the opponent offguard. His win against Yan Ming seemed to be because of the opponent's embarrassing beginner's mistake. However, his win against Fangg Guangi, everyone had witnessed clearly that it was an honest clash of profound strength without any fancy tricks, and it was a complete victory of his without the slightest discount in order to defeat a third ranker of the nent profound realm to that degree. It would at least require the profound strength of the fifth level or even the sixth level of the nent profound realm. Yet, a first ranker of nent profound realm actually released such a terrifying profound strength. What kind of notion was this? The only explanation was that he had always deliberately kept himself from breaking through and kept his rank of profound strength at a very low level, thereby allowing his profound energy to incomparably thicken under cultivation. If it's like this, even if his profound rank was only at the first level of nent profound realm, its power could perhaps even match those of the fifth or even the sixth level of nent profound realm. This was the only reasoning that anyone could think of. In other words, this Yanqi at the age of 16 possessed the true strength of one at the fifth level of the nent profound realm or higher. As they thought about this, everyone was violently moved. This was a devil's worth of innate talent and potential. This kind of innate talent was the finest, even within the seven major sects. Lanzio<unk>s eyes were filled with wonder as she couldn't help but exclaim, "Junior brother Zia, your brother-in-law was actually this formidable. Is he really the same as you who came from that floating cloud city in the east? Although her innate talent was excellent, if she was at the same age as Yanqi, it was absolutely impossible for her to reach that sort of level. This this ah MN compared to Lan Zuri, Zia Yuanbo was shocked to the point that he even forgot about the pain from his injuries. He knew Yani from the base of his root. As he looked at the current Yani show off such power, both of his big eyes had almost bulged out from staring too hard. He didn't know how many times he had already chanted in his heart. Brother-in-law was actually this amazing. Brother-in-law was actually this amazing. Brother-in-law was actually this amazing. The new moon profound palace elders who had their heart gripped, who were worried in various ways now smiled with joy one after another as their eyes glinted with an odd light. To win against Fangg Guangi, what Yani displayed was definitely an overwhelming strength without any kind of opportunistic tricks involved. He consecutively defeated three genius disciples that were famous throughout the entire city, deflated the pride of the seven sects, and made new moon profound palace stand tall with pride. The most crucial point was that this time such a talented disciple with powerful strength had actually emerged from New Moon Profound Palace. With Yani's current strength and potential that he had displayed, he may even reach the sky profound realm in the future. If that day really came to existence, then at that time the entirety of New Moon profound palace would bask in glory because of him. Elder Sikong, is he really our profound department's new recruit? asked two elders who sat beside Sikong Han almost at the same time. Although Yani had the new moon profound palaces insignia on his person, and even proclaimed himself as a new moon profound palace disciple. Even up to this moment, they still could not dare believe that this youth who possessed such an astonishing innate talent would actually enter their new moon profound palace. Sikong Han slowly nodded with a face that couldn't stop the upcoming laughter. He used his fingers to twirl the beard beneath his chin as he proudly spoke. "Right, he is the grandson of my longtime friend. He heard that I was here, so he came here to seek shelter." He aa this time Elder Sikong has recruited a genuine genius. The two elders exclaimed in succession. The insides of the new moon profound palace disciples hearts were already seething with passion as they watched Yani defeat three people consecutively and still continued his hotty taunting. For them who had always been oppressed, bullied, and mocked by the seven sects. The excitement and satisfaction they felt in their hearts were indescribable. Yani's name and his figure at this time were also deeply engraved inside their hearts. This little junior brother that had just joined the palace allowed them to raise their heads up in front of the seven sects for the first time. When confronted with Yanchi's challenge this time, no one who belonged in one of the seven sects jumped out. Amongst the disciples that the seven sex had brought with them this time, excluding the extremely abnormal Xiao Luang, the strongest in the 16-year-old age group would be at the pinnacle of the third level of the naent profound realm, which was around Fangg Guangi's current level. Yet, Fangg Guangi faced a disastrous defeat under Yani's hands in not even three moves. It would be difficult to expect a different result if someone with a similar strength went up to be defeated by a new moon profound palaces disciple of the same age. As disciples of the seven sects, how extreme of a humiliation was this. If word got out, it was not known how many people would mock them for it. No one would want to touch this kind of trouble. As for those who were older, they were even more unwilling to get on stage. Winning would be considered to be taking advantage of the weak. Not only would it not be glorious, they would instead be ridiculed by others. Losing now that would just be extremely ugly. As for Xio Lua, although he was also 16, everyone subconsciously didn't take him into consideration. As the young sect master of Xio sects branch sect, he had stepped into the 10th level of nent profound realm at the mere age of 16. Famous for being number one of the younger generation in this 250 km of New Moon City, his halo was unrivaled. Although the strength and talent that Yani displayed was extremely astonishing, no one would compare him with X Luang, for that would simply be an insult to X Luang. Xoluang calmly sat in place as his long, slender fingers lightly traced around the edge of his wine cup. The corner of his mouth had a trace of an iniccernable, indifferent smile, as if he had absolutely no interest in the events that were currently taking place within the palace hall. Over 10 breaths of time had passed since Yani issued the challenge, but no one from the seven sects gave a response. It was incomparably embarrassing. Yani's gaze gradually became more mocking. At this moment, a youngster from the Burning Heaven Clan's outer sect was unable to hold back and stood up, but was then pulled back by the person next to him who whispered, "What are you doing? There's not much difference in strength between you and Fangg Guangi. Are you trying to lose face for our heaven burning clan? Damn, that kid is too arrogant." The youngster clenched his teeth. If young clan master Xyluan was here right now, he'd beat him to the point that even his own mother wouldn't recognize him. The Xyluan he was talking about was their heaven burning clan outer sect master's son. A genius of the younger generation. Even though he cannot be compared to Xyro Luang at the age of 16, he was already seventh level of the naent profound realm and was a step away from the eighth level of the naent profound realm. Amongst the younger generation within New Moon City, he was second only to Xio Luachang. At this moment, a resolute-l lookinging youngster from the Iron Spear clan slowly walked out. He was about the same age as Yoni, yet he did not give off a bit of immaturity and instead possessed a composure that was inconsistent with his age. He stood in front of Yoni, slightly nodded and calmly stated, "Iron Spear Clans Taihangjan, 17 years old this year. I'm not eligible to challenge you, but watching you defeat one foe after another with such a hotty and regal demeanor, there's admiration in my heart. Therefore, I'd like to exchange pointers with you. It's just because I admire you. There are no other intentions. If you feel I am too old and is not eligible to spar with you, you can refuse and I will definitely not pursue any further. Wo, that's the Iron Spear clan's young clan master. It's actually him that has stepped up this time. I heard 3 months ago he was already at the fourth rank of nent profound realm. Also, his ability with the spear had already reached perfection. It wouldn't be difficult at all for him to defeat someone whose one or two ranks higher. Once Taihangjan stepped out, apart from Yani, there was not a single disciple or elder present who did not recognize him. As the Iron Spear clan's young clan master, his reputation, influence, or even his position in New Moon City was not inferior to the governors, and there was no need to doubt his strength either. A 17 years old at the fourth level of the naent profound realm was considered top tier in the seven major sects. Although not considered the finest, Iron Spear clan's emphasis was not in profound strength, but in the study of the spear. Their profound strength may be ranked lowest amongst the seven major sects, but with their combined true strength, they ranked in the middle. For Taihan to actually come out, it should be a piece of cake for him to defeat Yanqi, but he's already 17 years old, so his victory would be natural and expected. This doesn't vent my anger at all. A disciple of profound heart sect stated, "It really is a bit unfair. Although, if he ends up cutting off his arms and legs or whatnot, he he that's not bad either. I really can't stand that Yani<unk>s arrogant face any longer, another person said with hatred. People from New Moon Profound Palace also thought that maybe Taihangjan was only using this exchange of pointers as an excuse to injure Yanqi so he would be unable to continue challenging others. After all, with his strength of being the Iron Spear clan's young clan master and a fourth ranker of the nent profound realm, he could certainly accomplish this. At this moment, a few new moon profound palace 17 years old disciples tensely grasped both hands, eager to use the age range as an excuse to go up and defeat Taihangjan. But after remembering who Taihangjan was and his strength in the end, none of these 17 years old disciples dared to step up. From Taihangjan<unk>s face and eyes, Yani could see his eagerness and sincerity and no other ulterior motives. His heart was slightly startled as he realized not all the disciples of the seven major sects were arrogant trash. This Taihangjan was young in years but was already this steadfast. His entire body had a seldomly seen heir of righteousness. He was also proud but his proudness was an unyielding character a man should have and was not a wild arrogance. Yani's earlier performance made admiration surface in his heart. At the same time, it made his heart itch, and he genuinely wanted to exchange pointers with Yani. At once, Yani smiled slightly and said, "Brother Tai, what are you saying? You're the young master of Iron Spear Clan. For you to challenge this nobody in front of all these people, you're already thinking too highly of me. I would be extremely honored to have a match with Brother Tai. So, let us begin." With that, Yani took half a step back and raised his right arm. Taihangjan stared blankly. Never would he have expected that Yani, who was clearly arrogant without bounds until now, would actually treat him in this way. His heart immediately warmed as he also revealed a slight smile on his face. Since it's like this, younger brother Yan and I shall have a proper exchange of pointers. Younger brother Yan, you've already fought three consecutive rounds, so it's inevitable that your profound energy has been spent to an extent. Although winning or losing doesn't matter in an exchange of pointers, if we were to start right away, it wouldn't be fair for you. How about no need? Yani shook his head and smiled. I am grateful for brother Tai's consideration, but you can be at ease. Even though I fought in three consecutive rounds, all three were finished in the blink of an eye. I had barely used up any of my profound energy. Therefore, there's no need for me to rest for my spar with brother Tai. I will naturally have to give it my best. Taihangjan did not persist and nodded as he reached out to touch his spatial ring. A silver spear as long as his height appeared in his hand. He pointed it downward at an angle. This spear is called Piercing Cloud, a true profound tool and a heirloom. I consider this precious spear as a part of my own life, and it has never left my side. I'll be using piercing cloud for this exchange with younger brother Yan. Younger brother Yan, show your weapon. Yani slightly shook his head. There's no need. I'll be using my hands to spar with brother Tai. Tai Hangjun was taken aback for a moment, then nodded. As expected, younger brother Yan is hotty since it's this way. Don't misunderstand, Brother Tai. Yani immediately said, "It's not that I don't think Brother Tai isn't worthy of me using a weapon, but rather that I've never used weapons before. The only weapons I've ever used are my hands. If I were to use one now, it would just bind me, and I wouldn't know what to do with it." Yan Cheese Heart had always believed in this. If someone showed him a bit of respect, he would return the respect 10fold. If someone wronged him by an inch, he would pay it back with a smack of a stick. If someone wrongs him dearly, he will immediately torture them to death. This was Yani's nature. Taihangjan was genuinely respectful towards him, so it was only natural for him to show Taihangjan courtesy and due respect. Taihangjan seriously looked at Yani, then let out a hearty laugh. Haha, great. So, younger brother Yan Chi isn't one of those arrogant and hotty people after all. Looks like I'll get to enjoy this exchange to my heart's content. Then, younger brother Yan should take care. My piercing cloud spear has never lost to one who's younger than me. Brother Tai will also need to take care. Yani slowly extended his hand, and evil god Arts first realm, evil soul immediately opened, facing Taihangjan, who was far better than Fangg Guangi and Yan Ming. It was necessary for him to sustain this state of evil soul or he would definitely not have a chance at defeating him. At the same time, this was a kind of respect for Taihangjan. In that case, receive this spear. Taihangjan roared as his entire body released profound energy. Piercing cloud fiercely shot out towards Yani. His movement did not appear to be fast, but the spear point seemed to be like lightning striking out of a cloud. It carried an immense might and appeared in front of Yani in an instant. Even the surrounding air was split apart and created a flash of ripples. Yunch's pupils slightly contracted as he quickly retreated backwards, leaned to one side, and barely dodged the attack. Just as he was about to counterattack, a dangerous gust of wind suddenly came from his left. Generally speaking, the more power a spear strike possessed, the slower the speed of retracting the spear and its openings would become bigger. However, as Taihangjan<unk>s piercing cloud struck the air, it suddenly swept across in a flash and greatly surprised Yani. He withdrew his hands as quick as lightning. He then folded his wrists to support his waist and forcibly blocked it. Bang! As his wrists blocked the body of the spear. A violent shock came from the spear, which caused him to take three consecutive steps back and almost ruptured the profound energy protecting his body. "Great spear power! Great spear technique!" Yani couldn't help but exclaim. Even though Taihangjuns was still young, his ability to handle a spear definitely could already be considered masterclass. Flood dragon breaking clouds. Taihangjan's piercing clouds swept across once again as the after images of the spear danced about and forced Yanqi to back off far away. The spear was the most oppressive amongst hundreds of the weapons. Its doineering force and power could not be compared with any other type of weapon. It was the most difficult to master, but once mastered, not to mention an enemy's counterattack, one would not even be able to get close. Flood dragon scouts the abyss. Flaming meteor roaring azure sea. Taihangjan roared every time he struck out with his spear. In a short time, everyone's eyes were filled with the after images of his spear. Its tyrannical strikes forced Yani back step by step. sweeping through a,000, Taihangjan leaped 15 meters as his piercing cloud swept across the air to attack Yani. Even from 15 meters away, the dominating force had already almost made Yani incapable of opening his eyes. Under Taihangjan<unk>s dozen or so spear strikes, Yani had already been forced to the edge of the hall. Since Yani was unable to dodge at this time, he howled as he faced upwards and unyieldingly struck out against Taihangjun<unk>s piercing cloud with his arm. ah new moon profound palace disciples cried out in shock. Yani's profound strength could thwart an opponent of naent profound realm of the third rank. However, Taihenjan<unk>s spear not only contained pure profound strength, but it also had an overbearing might of the spear. How could one forcefully try to block the highest level of a spear's attack with bare arms? However, as Taihangjan<unk>s spear and Yani's arms collided, the sound of collision wasn't very loud. In the split second that they met, Yani's arm offseted diagonally. He borrowed Piercing Cloud's force to completely change its trajectory and at the same time thoroughly negate the spear's force. Then he quickly attacked to directly strike at Taihangjan<unk>s chest. Taihenjan quickly retracted the spear, but was unable to regain his posture in time and was easily blown away by Yan Chi. However, he did not panic in the slightest and roared as piercing clouds magnificent silver shadow flashed again. It no longer had an overbearing force, but rather it struck upwards from an unconventional angle towards Yani's throat, as if it was an intelligent silver snake. Yani's breath paused as he bursted backwards, using Star God's broken shadow to dodge and heavily smashed down onto the spear at the same time, which then forced Taihangjan to take several steps back. separated at a distance, Taihangjan and Yani did not immediately clash again. The entire palace once again fell into an absolute silence. Even though only a dozen or so moves had been executed in this brief moment, Taihangjan<unk>s usage of the spear that was at times like a violent storm and at times like an intelligent snake, coupled with his astonishing control of his spear, were all extremely amazing. To think that this kind of skill of the spear was actually accomplished by a mere 17-year-old youngster. The disciples of the same age and rank were all shocked without exception. They had to admit that even though they may be of the same rank as Taihangjan, they were by no means his match. Even Taihangjan<unk>s father, Taihiang, continuously nodded in silence with a smile of satisfaction. And most shocking of all, when faced with the power and technique of the spear, in addition to the difference of three ranks in profound strength, Yanqi unexpectedly didn't even suffer a single injury even after more than 10 moves. Moreover, he was almost evenly matched with Taihangjan. Everyone was shocked to the point of not being able to move. Some even had their mouth wide open and couldn't close them back for a long time. Looks like exchanging pointers with younger brother Yan was a choice that could not be more right. Tai Henjan swung piercing cloud with a look of excitement on his steadfast face. Same here. Same here. Yani faintly smiled and then his tone also carried a subtle warning. Then brother Tai about what's coming next. You'll need to be careful. Taihangjun<unk>s spear technique was practically invulnerable. It was difficult to find an opening in it. Since it was so the best method to defeat him in the shortest amount of time was to use an overwhelming force to forcibly break through his spear wielding posture. Yanqi narrowed his eyes slightly. Under the evil soul state, the berserking profound energy from his profound veins entered his arms without reservation. Haha, good. To be honest, I suddenly kind of wish that brother Yan will defeat me. Having said that, I definitely won't hold back. As Taihen let out a loud laugh, his gaze had already regained its former chill. He swung his silver spear across and roared. Receive this spear of mine, dragon of the rising sun. An enormous wave of pressure gathered upon the spear. As the piercing cloud spear danced, the people inside the palace actually heard the faint cries of a dragon as astonishment emerged on their faces one after another. And at this time, the piercing cloud spear had also horizontally swept toward Yani. This move could either thrust or sweep. Thrusting would pierce anything, and sweeping could sway thousands. Since Taihangjan chose to sweep, it clearly showed his understanding of this spear's power. If he had chosen to thrust, Yani may be gravely injured if he was unable to dodge under the oppression of the spear's imposing aura. But with a sweep, not only would it be easier to hit Yani, but it was also unlikely to cause any irreparable damage. As the silver spear fell, it carried an astonishing momentum like that of a seismic tsunami in the turbulent times of a raging storm. This shock caused by this spear definitely surpassed any single one of Taihangjan's earlier moves. However, what shocked Taihangjan as well as everyone else was that when faced with this frightening force, Yani didn't choose to dodge using his bizarre movement profound skill at all, but instead stood in place and raised his right arm to welcome the piercing cloud spear that horizontally swept in his direction. "CK! Is he crazy?" A large number of disciples in the palace straight up exclaimed out loud, "Dodge it quickly," roared all four of the New Moon Palace's elders. as strong masters that far surpassed these juniors. They could obviously see how alarming of a power was behind this spear of Taihangjan. However, Yani didn't listen at all. Instead, his arm sped up and violently collided onto the piercing cloud spear that carried such an immense power. Clang inside the main palace, the earpiercing sound of colliding metal sounded. The moment Yani's arm smashed onto the piercing cloud spear, Taihangjan had thought that this one spear would be able to sweep him flying for a few dozen meters. However, in that instant, his pupils suddenly contracted to the size of a needle. Because he felt as if his piercing cloud spear had swept into an indestructible and impeccably thick steel plate. As a massive wave of shock traveled back from the spear, Taihangjan suddenly felt nauseous inside his chest. He flew backwards with a single backflip and was only able to barely come to a stop after retreating another five or six steps back. His arms that held the spear also became slightly numb if not for his control with the spear that had already been embedded all the way into his bone marrows. The counter shock wave from earlier would have been enough to disarm the silver spear from his hands. Yet Yani only took two or three steps back to then already be firmly standing in place. He shook his arms that were also somewhat numb and faintly smiled. Wh what? Taihangjan<unk>s father, Iron Spear Clans's clan master, Taihiang, abruptly stood up. One of the seven major sex clan masters that could shake New Moon City was actually shocked enough by this scene to lose his composure. As clan master of the Iron Spear clan, he knew how frighteningly powerful the move Dragon of the Rising Sun was better than anyone. Even for opponents three ranks above Taihangjan in profound strength, they would not necessarily be able to receive it head-on. Yet, Yani, a mere first ranker of the naent profound realm, actually. Actually, since Taiang was already like this, there was even less of a point to mention anyone else. Iron Spear Clan's disciples jaws were almost shocked open to the point of touching the floor. And the eyeballs of New Moon Profound Palaces, four elders, were also about to burst out of their sockets. In this short period of time, Yani had already given them one shock after another. And this time, they were almost shaken up to the point of losing their integrity just so they could yell out on the spot. After defending against this spear, Yani's expression became even more calm because he knew that this battle would definitely still end in his victory. Although evil soul was only the first and the weakest realm of the evil god arts, the extent of its terrifying power still far surpassed his expectations. He looked at the Taihangjun who had a dumbfounded expression and spoke while smiling. Brother Tai, it's my turn to attack now. Yani took a step forward and closed in on Taihangjan<unk>s body in a blink of an eye like a roving dragon. Taihangjan<unk>s state of mind was as expected. It was incomparable to peers of the same age, for he immediately recovered from his bewilderment. The piercing cloud spear was raised up like lightning and swept toward Yani, who was already near. clang. As the piercing cloud spear slammed into Yani's right fist, the noise of metal colliding resounded again. Taihangjan<unk>s body leaned backwards. His hand numbed and almost dropped his spear. He was even surprised in his heart. His profound strength of the nent profound realm's fourth level coupled with the power of the spear was actually so easily blocked by a single fist. How could this strength possibly belong to a first ranker of the naent profound realm? Under the astonishment, Taihangjan fiercely brethed in and unreservedly released the profound energy inside his entire body. His control over the spear was displayed to his limit. Piercing cloud spear swung out after images that covered the sky and caged Yani's entire body within them. Clang, clang, clang, clang, clang. The cloud-piercing spear continued to collide a dozen more times with Yani's fists as it emitted the incredibly intense sounds of vibrating metal. At the final collision, Yani's gaze became solemn. Both of his fists simultaneously shot out and directly smashed into the cloud-piercing spear. Clang. Taihenjan let out a smothered groan and staggeringly retreated as if he was under the assault of an irresistible storm. Only after retreating more than dozen of steps did he finally finally come to a standstill. Both his hands, which held onto the cloud-piercing spear, trembled again and again. Yani lowered both hands and calmly looked in his direction, but did not continue to further attack. Taihangjan let out a long sigh of relief as he withdrew the cloud-piercing spear back into his spatial ring. After straightening his body, he revealed a grateful smile toward Yani and spoke, "Brother Yan, I lost, and I am sincerely convinced about my loss." Others wouldn't be able know, but Taihangjan had clearly understood that the last collision was completely over of his tolerance range. It was enough to knock the piercing cloud spear directly out of his hands. However, right before his cloud-piercing spear was about to leave his hands, the overbearing profound energy suddenly withdrew. Since the iron spear clan even used spear for its name, one could obviously see how importantly they view the spear. Before the battle, Taihangjan had also mentioned to Yani that the piercing cloud spear was his partner. It was seen to be as important as his own life and had never left his side. For these type of people to be disarmed of their weapons was a tremendous humiliation that would be even harder to accept than death. If it's<unk> possible, I truly wish to become friends with brother Yan, Taihangjan said. With those words of yours, we're already friends. Yani said while smiling. Taihangjan was stumped for words. Then he cuped a fist at Yani as he smiled sincerely and casually walked down. "Father, I lost. sincerely lost and conceited, yet also lost very happily. Taihenjan calmly stated as he arrived next to his father, Taihiangs sideigh. "What a splendid exchange of pointers," Taihiang sincerely exclaimed. "Your improvement made me both amazed and gratified. Although you lost, it's<unk> definitely not because you are weak. Instead, your progress has already surpassed my expectations. However, this child named Yani," he glanced at Yani with a profound gaze. This child will certainly become a true dragon amongst the clouds in the future. But this time, he provoked almost all of the new moon city's great sex at once. Even knowing what kind of calamity may befall him, are you still willing to become his friend? Taihangjan didn't even think about it and immediately nodded. Good. Now that's a real man that's truly the son of I, Taiqen. Taihianken gleefully laughed. Roars of clamor bursted within the main palace. He actually prevailed over that Taihenjan. My heavens, am I actually dreaming about this? Is he really in the first level of the nent profound realm? SSS? How could this be possible? Too frightening, too frightening. Taihangjan was a genius worthy of his title. But this Yani was simply just a monster for the Seven Sex sect masters and elders. It was difficult for their attention to not fall onto Yani's body at this time. The new moon profound palace that they had always looked down upon unexpectedly brought out this kind of character. defeating profound heart sex yu cloudy sun sex Yan Ming stormy profound palaces Fangg Guangi and even Iron Spear clans young clan master Taihangjan with only a profound strength of the first level nent profound realm if one didn't see it happen in person they would never believe it their former plan of playing rough with the newly appointed palace chief was thoroughly disrupted by Yanqi and instead turned into his one-man show in turn it also allowed New Moon profound palace to completely show off in their presence and even slapped them a few times in the face. Brother-in-law, is that really my brother-in-law? Zia Yua opened his eyes wide as he watched the all-inspiring figure that attracted everyone's gaze in the center of the main palace. He was unable to connect that figure with the crippled Yanqi, who had to suffer from all kinds of ridicule and contempt, who also needed his protection together. Every one of the new moon profound palac's male disciples tightly gripped their fists as their eyes shined with excitement since they didn't know how to express their current feelings. And the eyes of the female disciples who looked at Yani were already filled with stars. Especially Yihungaling who had spoke with Yani before. When thinking about how she actually told Yani, "If you have any problems, senior sister will help you before." She couldn't help but blush out of embarrassment at just how overreaching those big words were. Of course, among them were also people who were envious with jealous hate, such as Murang Yi. As the surrounding disciples cheered on Yani in their hearts, he had continuously snorted and had an extremely unpleasant feeling in his heart. It was because this time Yani had bathed inside the limelight for far too long and even allowed all disciples of New Moon Profound Palace to boldly stand tall. One could imagine how high of a popularity Yanqi would have in New Moon Profound Palace from now on. It may even far surpass him, who had always been the most popular inside the New Moon Profound Palace. When he looked at Lan Zurio, he discovered that she was staring unblinkingly at Yani with an abnormal luster in her eyes, one that she had never revealed to him. Instantly, the fire of jealousy crazily exploded inside his heart as his teeth also tightly clenched together. You're just a feral brat at the first level of naent profound realm who came from a remote little city. You have stolen the show enough. After today, I'll make you understand who's the real boss of New Moon Profound Palace. Counting Brother Thai, that makes four. Who shall be next? Yani stood in the middle of the main palace and faced the seven sects as he once again issued his challenge. Defeating a Fang Guangi had already frightened the 16-year-old age group enough that no one would dare to accept the challenge. Now he had also defeated Taihangjan. The 16-year-olds, even more so, did not dare to make a sound. Even after almost half a minute, no one from the seven sex had answered the challenge. And at this time, a voice full of disdain resounded. In the 16-year-old category, neither the number nor quality of the disciples we have brought are good. For the 16-year-old age group, this will count as our loss. He he do you dare to allow your profound palaces 17 and 18year-old disciples to come up and exchange pointers with us? As these words rang out, it immediately received positive responses from the seven sects. However, Yani made a cold laugh. Want to challenge our new moon profound palace disciples who are above 16 years old. That's fine. However, you should at least defeat me who is only 16, right? How else would you have the qualifications to challenge my senior brothers and sisters? Heck, this brother that spoke up, you seem to be around 18 or 19. How about you challenge me, a 16-year-old new moon profound palace disciple. If you win against me, you can challenge any of my senior brothers and sisters as you wish. However, if you can't even defeat a 16-year-old like me, he the crowd looked in the direction of the person who spoke up. As he lifted his head, everyone's gaze suddenly straightened. The disciples who were about to instantly shout all became quiet and even the elders of New Moon Profound Palace exhibited alarm in their eyes. This person, this person is this 18 or 19year-old had a slightly pale face. He glanced apathetically at Yani with his indifferent gaze that was like a pool of dead water and laughed with contempt as if he had heard some vulgar and uninteresting joke. You're saying that you want to challenge me? No, you're the one that's challenging me. This person's expression and eyes all revealed extreme disdain. Confronted with such an expression and attitude, Yani's eyebrows slightly raised as his eyebrows, as his gaze also became dangerous. The fact of who challenged whom were naturally two different concepts. Only the weak was supposed to challenge the strong. If one lost, it was just a defeat. But if one wins, then they would replace the strong. But for the strong against the weak, instead of calling that a challenge, it would just be taking an unfair advantage over another. With just a few words, they were already tit for tat. The atmosphere in the main hall quietly changed. He The person laughed indifferently, and with a strange movement while only taking a few steps, he easily moved a distance of a few dozen meters and appeared in front of Yani. The space between his narrowed eyes transmitted a cold light of indifference. In that case, I'll do as you've said. I've already thwarted countless geniuses, and it looks like I'll have to add one more today. Lu Lu Jannon. When he appeared in the middle of the main palace, many disciples immediately shouted out his name. That person, isn't he? Seven Deadly Sword Pavilions cold-blooded Louu. That's right. That's definitely him. Yani wants to have a match with him. HTTH this. Their strengths aren't even on the same level. Furthermore, that cold-blooded Louu nickname isn't just a sham to have a match with him. Does Yi not care about his life anymore? The palace was immediately filled with chaotic whisperings. Because for the two standing in the center of the palace right now, no one had ever expected them to fight against each other. It was because they were on two completely different plains of existence. Yanqi was 16, but Lu Jannon was already 18. After the age of 30, a few years of difference in age wouldn't be a problem at all because at that age, the profound powers accumulation would already become minor. And the key factor was innate talent. If one had enough innate talent, they would be able to break through the true profound realm or spirit profound realm. If one didn't have the talent, they may get stuck at the true profound realm bottleneck for life and never break through. However, the period before 20 years of age was exactly the critical period for the accumulation of profound strength. Not to mention one year of difference in age. Even half a year's difference would mean a large disparity in profound strength. For example, although 16year-olds at the first level of the nent profound realm were considered fine talents in New Moon City, they were still a dime a dozen. However, for 15year-olds at the first level of the naent profound realm, they would be considered a top-notch genius, and less than five people could be found in the entire new moon city. Before 20, it would definitely not be an exaggeration to say that one year of age was a difference between heaven and earth. Therefore, the matches between people who had not yet reached the age of 20 were generally held between those of the same age. It would be extremely unfair otherwise. Yanqi and this Lujian had a full two years of difference in age. In addition, Lujian's profound strength was also as high as the seventh level of nent profound realm. No matter the age or profound strength, they were considered to be people from two different realms. The fight between these two simply could not be referred to as a match. It could only be considered to be a complete one-sided domination. Because of the age gap, no matter how thick the skin on Lu Xan's face was, it would be impossible for him take the initiative and enter the stage. However, in this case, Yi was clearly the one actively challenging Lu Xanon, which made it an entirely different notion. If Lu Janan were to not accept the challenge, wouldn't it mean that he was scared of Yani? From everyone's viewpoint, Yani's victory against Chuan Yu, Yanming, and Fangg Guangi was already very impressive. Winning against Taihangjan was not just impressive but also made him an abnormality. But to challenge the 18-year-old Lu Jianan who was at the seventh rank of the naent profound realm that F-seeker is completely getting ahead of himself and is just asking to be abused. First ranker of the nent profound realm versus a seventh ranker of nent profound realm. That was a difference of more than half a profound realm. This was an enormous disparity that almost couldn't be compensated by any means. How could it be fought? Disciples from the seven sex side gloated one after another. To actively challenge Lujian, that's simply courting death. Lu Jannon's nickname was cold-blooded Lu because his heart was cold and ruthless. Anytime he fought, there was bound to be bloodshed. Yani losing while fighting him would actually be secondary, and having a mere arm or hand chopped off could even be considered as getting off light. All the elders of New Moon Profound Palace were already shocked to the point of turning pale. They were fully aware of this Lu Xians character. If Yani fought with him, there's an extremely high chance that he would be crippled by Lu Jannon and New Moon Profound Palace would inevitably lose and one in a century genius because of this. See Kong Han quickly gave Lanzio a meaningful glance. But before he even spoke up, Lanzurio had already stood up in advance. Took quick steps to Yani's front to block him and spoke. Junior brother Yan, leave this battle to me. He is 2 years older than you. It's simply not suitable for you two to exchange pointers. Yani, however, shook his head and said with a face full of confidence, there's no need against this kind of rubbish. There's no need for senior sister to fight yet. Although I'm 2 years younger than him, that's still completely enough. At first, when Lan Zuri stepped onto the stage, disciples from the seven sects were all shouting, "It's too bad," in their minds. If Yani had just left while going with the flow, no one would be able to object. Lan Zurua was 18, so it was ideal for her to battle against Lu Janon. But unexpectedly, this young was stubborn and actually persisted to want to fight against Lu Xian. This made quite a few of the seven sex disciples immediately spurt out in laughter. Lanzuo froze for a bit and then anxiously said, "Junior brother Yan, don't act on impulse. This person possesses a profound strength at the seventh level of nent profound realm and has a cruel mind. It's fundamentally not something that you can deal with. You had better leave this to me." However, Yani still shook his head and instead revealed a faint smile on his face. I thank Senior Sister for the concern, but Senior Sister does not need to worry. Since I've already become a disciple of New Moon Profound Palace, I definitely won't lose New Moon Profound Palace's face. Yani's smile carried a kind of inexplicable charisma since he was so persistent. Lan Zuru couldn't voice any more objections either. She could only deeply sigh in her heart and exhorted while looking at Yani with a complicated gaze. You wouldn't lose face for new moon profound palace even if you lost this match. So no matter what, you have to protect yourself. Well, this person's nickname is coldblooded. It's possible for him to kill even under the profound palace chief's nose. So you must be careful. If it comes down to it, it's not shameful even if you resign. Yani lightly nodded at Lanzuri. Lan Zuri took two steps back and reluctantly retreated back into the seedings. However, the entirety of Zia Yuanba's heart hung on a string. Even though only 6 months had passed since he entered New Moon City, he still had heard of the name cold-blooded Lu. I really appreciate your completely undisguised, insolent, and arrogant personality. Lujian spoke indifferently with a deep and cold voice. But what a pity. Your insolence is too overreaching. These kind of people usually die early. No need for any more nonsense. Just state your name. Yani expressionlessly spoke. name. Lujian slightly raised his head. His long and narrow eyes were filled with ice gold contempt and ridicule. You're not even worthy of knowing. All right, I take that back. Yani curled his lips. I already don't have the slightest interest in your name anymore because you're only one of the most mundane stepping stones in the road of my life. For a stepping stone, I certainly have no interest in its name. He he this may be the last self-confident words you can say in this lifetime. Lu Janan loftily smiled. He felt that this insolent youngster before his eyes was not only arrogant without bounds, but was also conceited and foolish to the extreme. Looks like this Yi brat can already be considered crippled. I can feel that this Lu Janon had already become belligerent. The middle-aged man of the Xio sex branch sect spoke while shaking his head. Lu Xanon was already ruthless in the first place. In addition to being provoked by him in many ways, how could he possibly not be merciless? Xyro Luang shook his head with a faint smile and said with a low voice after seeing him win against Taihangjan, I had originally wanted to go up and squash him down to make him know what a real genius is. But looking at it now, it seems like I won't be needed anymore. The middle-aged man hastily spoke up. What kind of strength and status does young sect master have? How could that insulent brat possibly be worthy for young sect master to personally dispose of? Xio Luichang faintly smiled and no longer spoke. I'll have to say your insulence has successfully given me a strong desire to destroy you. Properly enjoy the last few seconds of your intact body. He as Lu Jannon's right hand touched his left, a long sword of almost 4t long was already gripped in his hand. The corner of his mouth formed a vicious grin. From a standstill, his body suddenly bursted into a line of black phantoms in the center of the palace. In an instant, he closed the distance to be within three steps of Yanqi under a whistling similar to that of a violent storm. Seven deadly sword pavilions movement profound skill tempest style drifting clouds. Sheing accompanying the storm-like movement of Lujannon. The sword grasped in his right hand suddenly rang out a heart-chilling sound of its vibrating blade tip. In the next moment, Lujian's long sword suddenly thrusted out as if it was a strike of lightning. That flash of the sword was like the shine of a suddenly raging thunderbolt. It was so quick that one could only catch a glimpse of the glaring cold light that flashed by. "It's the flash of lightning." Senior brother Louu actually used this move right away. It seems like he wants to this insulent brat in one move. A young disciple of Seven Deadly Sword Pavilion exclaimed, "That's for certain. If senior brother Louu let this brat cross more than three moves with him, it wouldn't be senior brother Louu anymore. Another disciple of the seven deadly sword pavilion said, "As a matter of fact, this splendid thrust of a sword was at the pinnacle of swiftness, and the slim swords body was also infused with Lu Xan's powerful, profound energy. The momentum behind the sword was also strong to an inconceivable degree. This sword move could be said to be impeccably perfect. Seven Deadly Sword Pavilion was famous for thousands of miles as the swift sword. And on Lujian's body, the two words swift sword was exhibited perfectly. Reip ah. The earpiercing sound of air being torn apart resounded. The lightning-like sword directly went through Yani's silhouette amidst the screams of New Moon Profound Palace's disciples. Together, the man and the sword directly went through his body, but unfortunately, it was only an after image. He actually dodged it. How can that be possible? Seven deadly sword pavilions disciples yelled out in shock one after another. That flash of lightning move from Lu Xanon earlier could be said to have been executed perfectly. None of the disciples who had came here with him was confident enough to execute the move to his degree. That speed of the sword was almost worthy to shake the heavens and even make the gods cry. Even if one was prepared for it, it would still be extremely difficult to dodge. However, it was clearly Yani's first time fighting with a disciple of seven deadly sword pavilion. So, he ought to not be familiar with Seven Deadly Sword Pavilion sword moves. Under no preparations at all, he had actually managed to dodge it. It was actually dodged. New Moon profound palace elders were also surprised as two of them excitingly stood up from their seats. Not only was Yani's profound strength thick to the point of being impossible to comprehend, he also possessed a bizarre but fantastic profound movement skill. And even his reaction time was actually also this astonishing. So fast. Yani's brows slightly sank. If he had not already opened all of his profound veins and utilized the fastest speed of Star God's broken shadow, he might have not been able to avoid this lightning fast sword. the lightning sword strike that would have determined the victory had actually missed which also spoiled his plan of killing Yani in a single blow. Lu Xan was quite surprised in his heart. He quickly turned around without pause and the long sword swept straight toward Yani. The spear has a spear's advantage, so naturally the sword has its own advantages, too. A spear's oppression has no equal. Yet, a sword's swift fierceness was unmatched. Together with the sword's power, Lujannan carried the imposing aura of a turbulent storm. And as if it were a stream of light, the sword flew toward Yani's chest. Yan Cheese had an indifferent expression. His body casually leaned a small diagonal step backwards and easily dodged Lujian's second sword strike. Only a reup sound blared about. Like a silver shark that broke out of thin ice, a deep trench was carved out from the main palac's floor in the direction the sword pointed. The power behind this sword strike made quite a few disciples gasp. Lujan didn't hold back in the slightest. Moreover, both sword strikes were aimed at the vitals. He's obviously going in for the kill. To kill people inside the new moon profound palace, the only one who would dare to do so is probably this Lu Janon. However, if this happens, this Yi might really be finished here. Chin Wu sat on the main seat of the main palace as he watched the battle between Yani and Lu Jianan with a calm gaze. Although Sikong Han continued to shoot him meaningful glances in hope that he would use the palace chief's status to stop this unfair battle between two who were at completely different levels. It was as if Chin Wu had not noticed Sikong Han's intentions at all. He also did not have any intentions of stopping the battle which left Sikang Han with no choice but to only helplessly worry. As Chin Wu watched Yani, his heart was swayed for a long time. This youngster, he indeed only had the profound strength of the first level of naent profound realm. However, during the moment he struck, the huge surge of his profound power was extraordinary. What exactly is going on here? Is he hiding his true strength? Impossible. If I can't even see through the strength of a junior generation correctly, wouldn't the dozen of years I lived through have been for not? His strength was already enough to stir up an uproar in New Moon City when he had defeated Taihangjan with his age and condition. If he were to also win against this Lu Xanon, then this battle that I'm witnessing before my eyes may be the sudden rise of a future throne. TL someone at the Emperor Profound Realm in Blue Wind Empire. He appeared to be extremely arrogant right from the start and was even a bit overly presumptuous and super silious. But was that really his true nature? When he was facing against Taihangjan, he had a completely different attitude. Wildly arrogant people are usually impatient and restless, but both his aura and gaze had always been too tranquil. It was so calm that ought not to emerge from a 16-year-old youngster's body. As one who possessed this kind of gaze and aura, how could he possibly be a wildly arrogant person? Then the only explanation would be that the various arrogant stances and attitude from the start were all deliberately done. Even including the angering and provoking of the seven great sex, they were all intentional since he decided to enter this new moon profound palace while also deliberately provoking the seven great sex. Just what exactly was his goal? Ching Wu<unk>s thoughts continuously rotated. Yet his vision was firmly locked on Yani the whole time as he projected an admiration that was impossible to hide. The Yani at this time had already been drawn into the shadows of Lujians sword. Lujians sword became faster and faster. There was clearly only one sword in his hand, but it swung out as many as a few dozen of shadowy swords that covered the sky. One simply could not differentiate which sword shadow was real and which sword shadows were elucory. However, inside the terrifyingly dense sword shadows, Yani's body kept on swaying and shifting continuously. The sword was like a tempest, but it didn't leave the slightest trace of wound on Yani's body. This undoubtedly implied that Yanchi's speed of body movements were even faster than Lu Xians sword. All the disciples in the palace became stupified from watching this. When Lujian entered the stage, they had all thought that Yani was completely done for. Under hands of Lu Xanon, Yani's most likely outcome would be a 1-second defeat. Lujan didn't let anyone down either. Every sword strike that left his hand could all be considered as marvelous. Yet, up until now, he had almost consecutively struck out his sword for nearly 100 times, but still was incapable of even touching a corner of Yani's clothes. Every moment Lu Xian swung out his sword, Yani's body would immediately shift in the next. And every single time, Lu Xians sword could only stab into his after image. What Yani exhibited was the star god's broken shadows in a very tiny margin. With all 54 profound veins opened, it could be freely released instantaneously while keeping the consumption of profound energy very low. However, there was a prerequisite that's absolutely necessary. That was that Yanqi must have a sharp enough perceptive ability. He would need to be able to judge the sword's trajectory the instant Lu Jannon released his sword. The disciples in the palace were silent for a long time. What they had received after waiting was not Yani's miserable defeat, but rather another shock. After staring for a long time while dumbruck, Sikkong absent-mindedly muttered to himself, "No wonder he's actually using the air currents to perceive. However, in early periods of profound cultivation, the eyes should be the main method of perceiving. To be able to analyze and perceive using the profound energy's aura and air current, one would need to at least accumulate a dozen years of battle experience. One would at least need to be 25 or older to be able to accomplish this. Absolutely none of the young disciples that were present would be able to do this. Yanqi was clearly only 16 years old, but he could already accomplish it to such a degree. Furthermore, he had done so effortlessly. Even amidst the cage of sword shadows, he was still unruffled and dodged without the slightest margin of error. X lie. Exactly what method did he use to bring up such an anomalous grandchild? Line after line of sword flashes sliced toward his body. In the midst of Yi's swift dodges, he felt the faint pain of the sharp sword aura scrape his face and arms. At this time, Jasmine's warning tone of voice suddenly came from his mind. You should end the battle quickly. It's your first time using evil soul and you actually fought consecutively. It's much too straining. You should also be feeling the burden on your body and profound veins. With your current condition, evil soul can at most be maintained for another 30 seconds. Any longer than that, your profound veins would have the possibility of being severely damaged. The inside of Yani's heart all of a sudden faintly trembled. You piece of trash. Do you only know how to dodge? Since more than 100 of his sword strikes didn't even injure a single strand Yan cheese hair, flustered and exasperated, Lu Jannon increasingly became nervous as he lowly roared. Under his irritation, Lujian's profound strength crazily swelled from his entire body as the power behind his sword became increasingly violent. Under the sweeping sword shadows, it was as if an extremely sharp gust of violent wind blew inside the main palace. The marble floor was continuously cut and shattered by the swords aura and was sent scattering by the sword's wind. It was as if Lu Xians words were effective. His next sword strike thrusted down at an angle, but Yani didn't choose to dodge using his impeccably bizarre movement skill again. Instead, he suddenly closed in to face the blade of his sword and forcibly attacked toward his body. Yani's actions made Lujian pleased beyond his belief as he lowly roared in his heart. Fool, you have a death wish. RIP Lujan's long sword viciously sliced at Yani's left arm, and the strike unquestionably splattered blood. However, when he saw the bloody laceration he had cut on Yani's arm, Lu Xian wasn't overjoyed, but was instead shocked because the sword strike filled with his profound energy of the sevens level of the nent profound realm, actually only cut a wound onto his body, let alone chopping his entire arm off. Even the bones had not been touched. The profound power in Yani's body was undoubtedly only at the first level of the nent profound realm. As Yani took his sword headon, his right fist that was filled with all his power also ferociously crashed onto Lu Xians chest. Bang. Was it possible for a profound strength at the first level of the nent profound realm to break through the protective profound energy of an opponent at the seventh level of the nent profound realm? Lujian was originally about to simply dismiss Yani's strike, but then his complexion abruptly changed greatly. His chest's protective profound energy didn't even last half a breath and was immediately shattered. Lujan felt as if his chest had been directly smashed by a heavy hammer that weighed 500 kg. His inards violently tumbled as he consecutively retreated seven or eight steps and almost plunged onto the ground. Impossible. He clearly had the mere profound strength of a first ranker at the nent profound realm. Even if his profound strength was much thicker than ones of the same level, it would at most be able to match the third or fourth level. However, I myself am over half a realm stronger. How was it possible for me to be embarrassed into such a state after one of his strikes when I couldn't even cut through his protective profound energy? His mind was in chaos as his intention to kill rose even higher. Just as he was about to use Seven Deadly Sword Pavilion's strongest ultimate skill, he suddenly saw Yani extend his right hand in his direction while revealing a bizarre smile on his face. First, Yanchi's five open fingers that faced Lu Jian suddenly grasp tightly as a muffled word leaked out from his mouth. Just as everyone was bewildered by his actions and the word he spoke, they suddenly heard a foosh sound come from Lujian's body. Right after Lu Jian's blood curling scream of agony resounded through the entire main palace. Uwa, a ball of flame suddenly soared out from Lu Xians chest, which also happened to be the spot where Yani had struck him. Flesh, bones, and even the nearby organs were all enveloped into the scorching flame. Lujian painfully tumbled on the ground as both of his hands desperately patted and slapped in an attempt to extinguish the demonic fire that came from who knows where. However, these flames were ignited from the profound energy that Yanqi had poured into the inside of his chest. Unless he tore open his own chest, there was simply no chance of it being extinguished. To even make someone with the nickname cold-blooded scream like this, one could imagine the pain he was bearing at this moment. Not to mention a fire ignited inside one's body. Being burned by fire was already difficult to endure for an ordinary person. The complexions of everyone within the main palace all changed. Some became ashen, some became ghastly, and some had even started to shiver from head to toe. It's fire. Fire attribute. Profound arts. He can actually also use profound arts of the fire attribute. My heavens, isn't this the remote ignition of the profound that can only be achieved within the higher realms of fire attribute profound arts. Not only does this Yani possess fire attribute profound arts, he unexpectedly had already reached this state. He's obviously only 16. How can this be possible? So that's why no wonder Yanming was so battered before. That wasn't some low-level mistake at all. It was because Yani also had fire attribute profound arts, and he was clearly much better at it than Yanming. For Yanming to play with fire against him, he was completely digging his own grave. As they watched the flame that exploded from Lu Xians chest, many had come back to their senses from the shock. And Yanming, who had been defeated by Yanqi earlier, became as dazed as a wooden chicken. The remote ignition of profound energy was an ability that could be achieved with his sects profound art only when one had cultivated it to the sixth realm. He didn't even dare to think about achieving it before the age of 30. However, Yani had done it and indisputably displayed it right before everyone's eyes. At this time, he thoroughly understood that his loss did not carry the slightest bit of injustice. to play with fire against an anomaly who could remotely ignite profound energy. It was virtually showing off one's skills of the axe in front of a master carpenter and asking to be humiliated after being struck. If only Lu Xan hadn't immediately nashed his teeth and reaccumulated his strength in order to regain his momentum, but instead immediately forced out Yani's profound energy that had been smashed into his body, the outcome would have been undeniably different. However, even though Lu Jannon was blown back with just a single hit from Yani's fist, he was still unwilling to recognize Yani's power. He even more so had not expected that Yani actually possessed such a powerful ability to control fire. Yani walked beside his feet, looked at him within gaze of pity, and spoke with an indifferent tone. Like I've said before, I don't have the slightest interest in your name anymore. Someone with the strength at the seventh level of the naent profound realm couldn't even defeat a first ranker of the nent profound realm. This kind of trash is not necessary for me to know at all. After he finished speaking, he lightly flicked his finger as he smiling disdainfully. The nightmarish fire on Lujian's chest was then finally extinguished. Against people he hated, Yani didn't mind adding insult to their injury at all. Moreover, this Lu Janon also had the intention of killing him if it wasn't under the watchful eyes of everyone inside this new moon profound palace's main palace. He never would have been kind enough to extinguish the fire on Lujannon's body. Lujan got up from the floor, battered and exhausted. His complexion was ghastly white, and a hole had already burned through the clothing on his chest, revealing his skin that was almost seared black. Under the protection of his profound energy, Yani's flame did not actually severely injure him. However, the pain that was brought by the fire that ignited inside his body was enough to make him remember it for a lifetime and also imprinted a very deep scar in the depths of his heart. At this moment, his gaze towards Yani was filled with horror. He lowered his head, dragged his sword, and walked back towards Seven Deadly Sword Pavilion without another word. He knew that today he had completely become the stepping stone Yani had spoke of. Thinking back now, the various ridicule and disdain he had toward Yani earlier were just like a pile of jokes that he slapped on his own face. Lujan actually lost. How terrifying. What kind of strength does Lu Jannon have? Even he was defeated by Yani. 16 years old, a first ranker of nent profound realm. Yet his profound strength was so alarmingly deep and thick. His movement skills were even more strange and unmeasurable. In addition, he still knew such a high-grade fire attribute profound art. The fire attribute profound art that he had displayed just now seems to be different from Cloudy Sunsect and Burning Heaven Clan. Yet, its level is so high that it's terrifying. He's clearly only 16 years old. This kind of talent, even though it can't be matched with Xio Lu Chang, the difference isn't too far away either. Perhaps it's enough to be on par with Fenzillan of Burning Heaven Clan. Amongst the younger generation inside New Moon City, his talent is enough to enter the top five. No, top three. From the disciples to the elders, everyone of the seven deadly sword pavilion all lost their spirit because they were the ones who understood Lu Xan's abilities the best. But with a strength like his, he actually was defeated by a 16-year-old disciple of New Moon Profound Palace. This kind of spiritual impact was far too great. So large that they couldn't believe the reality of what they saw. Shuan Yu, Yanming, and Fangg Guangi, who were previously defeated by Yani, stared for an even longer time as their throats became dry. When they were defeated by Yani, every single one of them refused to accept it in their hearts. But now they clearly understood that their loss was far from unjustified. When Yani had fought them, he clearly did not unleash all his strength. Perhaps he did not even use half of his actual strength. Otherwise, their loss would have been even quicker and more tragic. Thinking back now, their arrogance in front of Yani earlier was simply like an ignorant puppy barking furiously at a lion cub. This kind of talent is extremely rare, even in the seven sex with their strong and solid heritage. And such a disciple unexpectedly appeared in our new moon profound palace. Perhaps this new moon profound palace which had been silent for all these years may rise because of him. Sikang Han spoke as he emotionally sighed. The two elders beside him also slowly nodded their heads and deeply agreed with him. By no means were talents needed in excess, and they would never appear in surplus either. Being able to have one was enough to bring prestige to one's family. And with new moon profound palace being the one and only profound palace that was set up in the new moon city by the imperial family. Heaven knows how many years it had been since a top-notch genius who could be comparable to the seven sex talents had appeared. This was also the main reason why new moon profound palace were always been unable to raise their head in front of the seven sects. And this curse perhaps would be broken starting with the emergence of Yani. No, it has already been broken. This time solely because of Yanqi. New moon profound palace had finally stood up with pride and blew off their steam at the seven sects who came to show off their strength. This also made the seven sex disciples gazes, no longer contained the proudness and contempt they had when they first entered the main palace. Meanwhile, the disciples of New Moon profound palace were still all in shock. Facing the powerful Lu Janon Yanqi who was only 16 years old had won once again. The shock they received that was brought by this outcome was indescribable in words. A first ranker at the nent profound realm defeating a seventh ranker at the naent profound realm. What kind of horrifying talent must one possess to accomplish this? This was also the first time they knew that a first ranker at the naent profound realm could actually reach such a terrifying power. Round after round, almost every match was a victory that had far exceeded their predictions. It was as if they were inside a dream. I always thought my talent was already considered as a genius level, but compared to Junior Brother Yan Sad isn't even worth looking at. Within the seats, quite a few New Moon Profound Palaces disciples side to themselves to be able to attend this banquet today. No doubt were they the most elite disciples of New Moon Profound Palace and naturally would have self-ride inside their heart. However, after witnessing Yani's five battles in a row, the proudness inside their hearts had vanished without a trace. Their hearts were filled with respect and admiration towards this junior brother that had just joined the profound palace. Is this really my brother-in-law? It was not known how many hundred times had Zia Yua murmured this, his eyes staring wide open from the start to the end. He and Junior brother Yan similarly came from the same little floating cloud city located in the east. In that place, surely there wouldn't be any high-grade resources, and under such conditions, Junior brother Yan could actually reach such a realm. If he had been born in a major sect, his accomplishment now would certainly be even more universally shocking. Lan Zuru silently thought in her heart. He wasn't he the person I was looking for all along. TL Hook, line, and sinker. As she thought about this, Lan Zuru<unk>s charming eyes were in violent turmoil and released an incomparably touching radiance. Her gaze towards Yani also subtly changed all of a sudden. Yani clearly had consumed a great amount of energy after fighting five consecutives battles, even though he seemed to be undisturbed on the outside. His forehead was already been covered in beads of sweat, and his breathing had also obviously became hurried. On his left arm, the bloody gash was a ghastly sight to see, and the blood that flowed out had already dyed half of his sleeve a scarlet red. Lan Zuru immediately stood up. She took out all of the various kinds of ointments she carried, walked quickly towards the Yani's side, and asked with concern, "Junior Brother Yan, your arm is injured. How severe is the wound?" Yani smiled and replied, "It's fine. And it's just a scratch that didn't reach the bone. Furthermore, it had already stopped bleeding. I thank senior sister for the concern. Stop acting tough. Come, let senior sister take a look. Lan Zuruo stretched out her jade hands and lifted Yoni's arm carefully as she checked his wounds. Following that, her face revealed an expression of astonishment. Even though the wound on Yani's arm was very deep, but like he had said, it had indeed not reached his bones. That was undeniably a slash from Lujian. Yet, it only caused this kind of injury that could only be considered a minor wound. Not to mention the first level of naent profound realm. Even if a similar person at the seventh level of the naent profound realm received a strike from Lujian, they definitely wouldn't have only received such a light injury. As a first ranker of the nent profound realm, how was it possible for him to possess such a strong, protective, profound energy? As he saw the astonishment on Lanzuru<unk>s face, a proud look slowly appeared on Yani<unk>s face. Do you believe me now, senior sister? My body is made of iron. You know, how could I possibly be seriously wounded that easily? Lan Zuru laughed gently. How is your body made of iron when you look so white and tender? You look more like a standard boy toy. A boy toy? Yani raised his eyebrows for a moment. Then he looked at Lan Zuru<unk>s snow white face and happily laughed. Only men that are being kept and provided for by a beauty can be called a boy toy. And I don't even have a beauty to provide for me. How about senior sister keep me? PF, your mouth sure is naughty. A laugh escaped from Lan Zuru as she rolled her eyes at him. I'm still your senior sister, okay? If you dare to tease me any further, be careful of senior sister spreading the word about your marriage out. You wouldn't even be able to deceive a single girl after that. Yani's expression immediately became sullen. T L author said his face looked like Chinese letter seeing Lan Zuru take the initiative to approach Yani to show her concern and furthermore while chatting and laughing together. Both of them appeared to even show a hint of flirtation. Murang Yi<unk>s face turned green in an instant. His teeth nearly shattering in pieces from the grinding. He and Lan Zuru were publicly known as the golden couple of New Moon Profound Palace. Just one more step was needed before they would become a couple recognized by the masses. However, he clearly knew how difficult this one step was. At the very least, Lanzoro had never treated him the way she's currently treating Yani. That damn brat. Murang Yi gaze suddenly became more and more sinister. As if he had felt the gaze that was filled with jealousy and hatred. Yani<unk>s head slightly turned in Murangi's direction. The corner of his lips curled up into an unnoticeable curve. Clap clap clap clap. At this moment, a sharp and clear clapping sound rang out in the main palace and caused everyone to look towards the origin of the sound. The person who was clapping had already slowly stood up from their seat. Wonderful. Truly brilliant beyond comparison. I had originally come in my father'sstead to congratulate Palace Chief Chin, but unexpectedly I was able to enjoy one brilliant battle after another between tigers and dragons. I'm even more so in luck to see another brilliant star rise in our new moon city. While the young man started to speak, he also walked towards Yani as he cheerfully grinned from ear to ear. He looked quite young and had the appearance of a 16 or 17year-old. However, there weren't any signs of immaturity his face. Instead, he carried an intangible noble and proud aura. His voice was clear and gentle, yet it carried a pressure that made one suffocate. As they saw the young man who had slowly walked out, the palace immediately became completely silent. Xio Luang, the undeniable number one of the younger generation in New Moon City. When Xio Luang walked into the main palace, all the gazes were focused on him. However, after that, not many people kept their attention on him. Even when Yani had declared war at all the 16-year-olds of the seven sects, and no one from the seven sects responded, nobody had thought of him at all. This was because the level X Luang was, it had already far surpassed this little New Moon City. His terrifying talent was not something that the disciples of New Moon City or the seven sects could compare to. Taihangjan entered fourth level of the naent profound realm at age 17. Lujian entered seventh level of naent profound realm at age 18. They were all famous and top-notch genius in New Moon City. Yet Xyro Luang at the age of 16 was at the 10th level of the naent profound realm. Xyro Luang had never participated in the battles between the younger disciples of the new moon city sects because within the new moon city's younger generation, no one was qualified to be his opponent, and none were worthy for him to show his power either. Even though he was the young sect master of Xiao sects branch sect that was located in New Moon City, everyone knew that once he reached the age of 20, it would be unthinkable for him to remain in New Moon City. Instead, he would return to the main headquarters of Xyro sect. With his terrifying talent, he would be in a decently high position even inside Maine sect. Zyro sects main sect. That was a colossus that New Moon City didn't even have the right to look up at. It was a major sect that even Blue Winds Imperial family had to curry favor with. That was where X Luang should belong. For New Moon City was simply incapable of containing this exceptional genius known as Xio Luang. However, now not only did X Luang personally step up, he even walked towards Yani. Everyone's heart started to frantically beat. Is it possible that he's going to? Xyro Luang suddenly walking out was undoubtedly against everyone's expectations. Although Yungi had stolen the show by continuously defeating five people and shocked the entire audience, his glory still was incomparable to that of Xoluang. Everything that Yani had exhibited was enough for him step into the finest class of talents within New Moon City's young generation. However, Xoluang was a level of super genius that was enough to enter one of the four major sects. If Yani were to suddenly challenge Xio Luang, then it still wouldn't be that shocking. And at most he would be thought of as overestimating himself. But if Xyro Lua Chang took the initiative to step up on his own, it would be too thoughtprovoking. Could it be that he wanted to spar with Yani? No way. Absolutely impossible. Considering Xio Luengs status, pride, and strength, why would he intentionally lower himself to fight with a newly admitted disciple of New Moon Profound Palace? But if it wasn't to do this, then what exactly did he want to do? Not only did Zia Lua Chang walk out of his own accord, his gaze had also remained on him the entire time, which also caused some suspicion to rise in Yani's heart. He immediately put on a smile and said, "Young sect master XO must be joking. I am but an ordinary disciple of New Moon Profound Palace, so I am definitely unworthy of bearing the title of new star in New Moon City. The one with the qualifications to be called a star is you. Only you, young sect master Xio, is worthy of that title. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Xio Luachang started to laugh. The laughter carried an air of royalty that simply didn't seem like it came from a 16-year-old's mouth. Brother Yan is too modest. I believe that after today's sparring session, Brother Yan<unk>s name would undoubtedly reverberate throughout the entire New Moon City. As for your future accomplishments, they will definitely be immeasurable. The fact that I, Xio Lua Changeng, could come in person today can also be counted as a stroke of great fortune. Yani's face suddenly revealed an expression of being overwhelmed by flattery. He hurriedly said, "Young Master Xio<unk>'s words are really too flattering. My ability in front of young master Xio is akin to a small luminescence in front of the bright moon and is not worthy to even be mentioned. I don't know if young sect master XO has any advice. This Yi will definitely listen carefully. He he brother Yan doesn't need to be so modest. Whether you are a small luminescence or the bright moon, anyone present would naturally know in their heart. The reason why I presumptuously came forward was to ask Brother Yan for a favor. Just a moment ago, Brother Yan had admirably shown off strength and consecutively defeated five top disciples of the seven major sects. Aside from my amazement and admiration, my hands have also become itchy. So, I wanted to consult with Brother Yan a bit. I don't know if Brother Yan is willing," Xio Luang courteously asked while watching Yani with a smiling face. As soon as the words left X Luangs mouth, the main hall erupted in whispers, and even Yani was in a daysaze. Xyro Luang is actively challenging Yani. Ah, no, no. He's actively proposing to exchange pointers with Yani. This this is irrational. Even if Yani is extremely amazing and even if one called him New Moon profound Palace's finest disciple of the century, I can still believe that. But Zyro Lua Chang and Yani aren't even people of the same level. How could Xyro Lua Chang proposed to spar with him? No matter how you think about it, this doesn't make sense. Could it be that the seven sects defeat was so unsightly to behold that young sect master Zyro wanted to regain face for the seven sects and at the same time let Yani know what a true genius is like? Yani didn't immediately respond and stood there in a days as if he was stupified by Xoluangs words. However, during this time, his vision had never left Xro Lua eyes from beginning to end. At this moment, Xyro Lua was within five steps of his position. His calm, imposing manner carried an unconcealed aloofness. But Yani could sense that under his harmless exterior appearance, there existed a thick, profound energy and an intangible strength. His entire body was like a ferocious beast hidden in a deep abyss who remained motionless. If he moved, who knows how terrifying that would be. But these weren't important. What was important was that deep within his eyes, Yani could see an ice cold sinister aura. He was all too familiar with this type of aura. This Xoluang wants to destroy me. This was the answer Yi immediately arrived at as his mind also instantly cooled down. But why? He and I have never crossed paths before. And furthermore, we don't have any conflicting interests. Today was also the first time we've ever met. He clearly had no reason to do act this way. Is it merely to strangle an emerging talent, a new star who may became his future enemy? which means my performance today made him more or less a little afraid. If that's really true, then this harmless looking young sect master could be said to have the shrewdness and heart of a demon. As he thought to hear, Yani suddenly spoke in a somewhat terrified voice. Young sect master Zyro wants to exchange pointers with me. This is not me, Yani being modest. But even though I had only recently entered New Moon City, I've still heard that young sect master XO had already stepped half a foot in the true profound realm at such a young age. Compared to my minuscule amount of profound energy, young sect master Xio<unk>'s real strength is too far apart to be able to exchange pointers with young sect master Xio. I honestly cannot overcome that fear. But immediately his tone changed and straightforwardly said. However, since young sect master Xio sees so much in me, I of course cannot refuse. To be able to spar with young sect master Xio, whose name can even be heard 500 km away. This would be my Yani's greatest honor. Great. Xio Luang nodded in satisfaction and said with a smile. Since we are sparring, then we'll obviously have the fairest of conditions as the basic premise. Brother Yan has already fought five consecutive matches, so I presume that the exhaustion must be overwhelming. Moreover, you are wounded on the left arm. Before we spar, Brother Yan should rest a while. When Brother Yan<unk>s profound energy recovers, we will then have a fair sparring session. No, that's not necessary. Completely out of everyone's expectation. And in the face of X Lua Changs reasonable suggestion, which was also beneficial for him, Yani actually refused without the slightest bit of hesitation. Although I exhausted quite a lot of energy, I more or less still held on to some spare energy, which should be enough to spar with young Master Xio for a bit. As for the wound on my arm, it is but a light injury, which shouldn't be too serious. Furthermore, we are just sparring. It isn't a battle to the death. Since it doesn't matter whether it's fair or not, why should we waste everyone's time because I Yani exhausted a bit of energy and have a minor injury. The words that came from Yani completely stunned everyone within the hall because unless they were deaf from Yani's words, anyone could hear a kind of extreme self-confidence and arrogance. FCK, this Yi, what is he trying to do? What's this? More or less have some energy left, which should be enough to spar with young master Zo for a bit. Who does he think he is? Who does he think Xyro Luang is? Yan Chi is indeed a top genius. One have no choice but to acknowledge this. But to be so arrogant in front of Xyro Luang, he virtually doesn't know the limits of his own abilities. He simply asked to be humiliated. If he does battle against Xyro Luang, a mere foot may be enough to flatten him within minutes. Sai, forget it. He said so himself that he has just arrived in New Moon City. I estimate that he had only heard a little of Xio Lua Changengs fame and just does not understand how terrifying he is. I would bet that if he stayed at New Moon City for a month, even if given 10 times the amount of courage, he still would not dare to say such things. He he this will be interesting. I imagine after hearing these words, Xio Lua would also become angry. Perhaps he will be defeated in the most miserable of fashion. He he this will be a good show. Junior brother Yan Lan Zuru knitted her fine eyebrows and immediately reminded in a low voice, "Even though this Xio Lua Chang is the same age as you, his strength is completely different compared to the people you fought earlier. You can say that he's simply on another level. You mustn't. Rest assured, senior sister Yani had actually interrupted her and spoke without a care. My current state isn't as bad as you think. Furthermore, all I am doing is exchanging pointers with young sect master Xio. No matter the result, it wouldn't be that big of a deal. But Lanzurio still had more to say, but Yani gave her a very gentle and comforting look. After which, he turned to Xolo Luang and said, "Young sect master XO, let's<unk> begin right now. What do you say?" In fact, after the words Yani had said earlier, he was already unable to back down. Lanzuo could only sigh in her heart and silently sit down with a heart full of worry. Xoluang smiled, but anyone could see that his smile was a bit forced. This was perhaps the first time in Xoluangs entire life that he had met someone who dared to be so arrogant in his presence. He narrowed his eyes and slowly said, "If this is what Brother Yan insists, then I will naturally respect Brother Yan<unk>s decision. Only Brother Yan<unk>s current state is worrisome." When continuously fighting five matches and exhausting so much profound energy, the bodily protective energy would definitely be much weaker than before. So much so that it may collapse at any moment. If you were to suffer my strike at that time, there is the possibility of suffering severe injuries if that happened. Haha. Young Master Xyro thinks too much. Yani unknowingly smiled. When sparring, a situation where one cannot hold back is inevitable. It would be normal for light injuries or even heavy injuries to appear. Moreover, it was I who insisted on sparring with young sect master Xio in my current condition. Even if I were to actually suffer serious injuries, young sect master Xio would definitely not be blamed. Regarding this point, everyone present can act as a witness. Therefore, young Master Xio has no need to worry about holding back at all. Please let this person new to New Moon City open his eyes and experience the strength of the strongest within the young generation. As these words came out from Yanqi, the elders of New Moon profound palace were so startled that they almost fell off their seats. As for those on the seven sects side, especially those in Xyro sects outer sect, there were many who couldn't help but immediately laugh out loud. This motherfer is practically digging his own grave. Xyro Lua Changang looked deeply at Yani. That expression was as if he was looking at a But since we are speaking about this, if I, Yani, were to get lucky and accidentally injure young Master Xio. Then as soon as the words left Yani<unk>s mouth, the seven sex side instantly fell into laughter again. In spite of the current situation, a few people started to laugh wildly without the slightest restraint. Some even laughed so hard that they started to roll about on the ground while holding their stomach. It was as if they had heard the funniest joke in the world. But no one from New Moon Profound Palace's side could laugh, and anxiety was written on every one of their faces. If it was possible, they had an incomparable desire to make Yan Chi take back those words he had just said to Xio Luang. Of course, with the exception of Mirang Yi, he tightly clenched his teeth as his both cheeks quivered and was almost unable to control his laughter several times already. This actually dug himself a hole and intends to jump in it. There was actually someone this stupid. Xoluang, you must beat him until he's crippled. Beat him half to death. X Luang laughed loudly and said, "If I'm injured by Yanqi, then consider it my lack of skill. And of course, blame would not fall upon Brother Yan<unk>s head in the slightest. Everyone here can also be a witness." Right after Xoluangs voice faded, Cloudy Sun sex head elder Yanzai had already loudly shouted, "Both of you can rest assured with so many people here today and this many eyes watching, we will naturally be your most solid witnesses. If either of you is unfortunate enough to receive severe injuries while sparring, the opponent shall not be blamed. Otherwise, one would be a despicable person who can't keep to his word." After these words from Yan Zizai, every sect immediately agreed one after another. These words were obviously directed toward New Moon Profound Palace because there was simply no one who believed that Yani could even harm Xiao Luachang. When speaking about Yani, who had largely exhausted his profound energy and was even slightly injured, there wasn't even a chance that he could possibly be victorious. Sikong hands revealed a bitter face as his pleading eyes looked towards Chin Wu. But under the gaze of the seven sects, Chin Wu slowly nodded his head. "Good," Xio Luachen calmly said. Since this is the case, I hope to receive Brother Yan<unk>s guidance. I also request Brother Yan to be lenient on me. Be lenient on me? These four words that Xio Lua Chang had said were extremely irritating to the ear. Yan Chi faintly smiled and did not reply. His breathing became tranquil and he concentrated his gaze. The first gate of the profound veins opened again. According to Jasmine's warning, with his body's current condition, the first gate could only be opened one last time for a dozen or so seconds. Otherwise, his body and profound vein would inevitably be overburdened and suffer unforeseeable damage. But these dozen or so seconds are more than enough. From the depth of Yani's eyes, an extremely dangerous light flashed from within. I didn't bother you. Didn't provoke you. Yet you wish to destroy me. Since it's like this, I'll destroy you first.
