Sword Qi to the Sky

Chapter 402 A person's greatest virtue is self-awareness.

Today, the Holy Son of the Great Li Sect and the prodigies of various families challenged Bai Yujing. In their first battle, Yue Yunxiao, the top sword cultivator of Lingxiao Pavilion, was crushed by the number one disciple of Bai Yujing.

However, this is not surprising, after all, that is Xiao Lü, and there is only one Xiao Lü in Baiyujing. If Lingxiao Pavilion wants to defeat Xiao Lü, it will probably take Jiang Tai'a to come in a few years.

This battle also calmed down the other geniuses who were seeking enlightenment, and they still had to have some respect for Bai Yujing.

The students of Baiyujing Academy looked over there, awaiting the challenge from these chosen ones.

At this moment, a blinding golden beam of light flashed in the crowd, accompanied by a violent aura that swept out. Everyone looked in that direction and saw a figure bathed in golden divine light standing there like a divine general.

“Yun Tiansheng, the Holy Son of Tiandu Palace.” The disciple of Baiyujing Academy looked at that person. The turmoil in Yujing City today was caused by the former Holy Son of Tiandu Palace.

Now, the new Holy Son of the Heavenly Capital Palace has also set foot in Baiyujing.

"I have a question." Yun Tiansheng's eyes seemed to turn golden as he looked at the people of Baiyujing Academy and asked, "My former Holy Son of Tiandu Palace died in Yujing City, not far from Baiyujing Academy. What kind of place is Baiyujing Academy? How could we let the other party escape under our noses? Since you have activated the great formation, why did you not capture the murderer?"

Hearing this, everyone felt a stir in their hearts. This was also a question in the minds of many. Given the major events that happened in Yujing City that day, it shouldn't have been difficult for Baiyujing Academy to capture Wen Ruyu.

Everyone's gaze turned to Yan Chong, and Yun Tiansheng's eyes also looked in that direction. Yan Chong, however, stood there calmly, glanced at Yun Tiansheng indifferently, and said, "Are you questioning Baiyujing Academy?"

The calm voice seemed to carry an invisible pressure, instantly suppressing the aura emanating from Yun Tiansheng. However, his eyes remained sharp as he said, "I just don't understand and would like to ask for your guidance."

"What does the murder of your Heavenly Capital Palace's Holy Son have to do with my White Jade Capital Academy? Why should we be required to apprehend the murderer for you? Is your Heavenly Capital Palace so arrogant?"

Yan Chong's voice suddenly turned cold, and an invisible pressure swept over him as he said, "Go back and ask your Palace Master of Tiandu Palace if he dares to speak like that in Baiyujing."

The immense pressure caused Yun Tiansheng to take a step back, his face stiffening and looking awkward. Those around him looked at him with pity.

This young holy son seemed to have forgotten where he was. Everyone who came here was a top genius, and naturally, they were all proud and arrogant. Yun Tiansheng was no exception.

However, this is Baiyujing.

Bai Yujing has never lacked geniuses.

"But the princess is among them." Yun Tiansheng stared intently at Yan Chong without flinching. Yan Chong's aura grew even colder. Was he using the imperial court to pressure Bai Yujing?
"presumptuous."

A shout came from behind the crowd. When everyone turned around, they saw several figures coming towards them. The one who shouted was none other than Ye Yunke, the prince of Dali.

Ye Yunke and Liu Qingwu from Tianji Pavilion also arrived here, but they were not here to seek knowledge, but merely to pay a visit. Given their status, Baiyujing Academy naturally did not stop them.

"Baiyujing Academy is the number one cultivation holy land in our Great Li, nurturing countless geniuses. Not to mention a princess, even if a prince were to perish, one must act in accordance with the academy's own will. How can we allow you to speak so arrogantly?" Ye Yunke stepped forward, staring at Yun Tiansheng.

Yun Tiansheng's expression became even more awkward. He had already offended Baiyujing Academy, and now the Prince of Dali was also scolding him, but he could not refute it. Otherwise, he would offend both sides.

His eyes twitched, and his fists clenched. As the Holy Son of the Heavenly Capital Palace, he had been humiliated repeatedly on this day.

He was insulted by Li Fan when he asked the question, and now he has been repeatedly reprimanded, losing all face.

Everyone looked at him with sympathy; Yun Tiansheng was truly in a terrible state today.

"Clown." A soft voice came from behind him. Qi Zhanyun glanced at him with disdain, stood with his arms crossed, and his eyes revealed a hint of contempt.

"Ye Yunke greets you, sir." Ye Yunke stepped forward and bowed to Yan Chong, who returned the bow, saying, "Your Highness is too kind."

Ye Yunke then looked at Mu Changqing beside Yan Chong, glanced at him, and smiled, "This must be the legendary Mr. Mu, right?"

Mu Changqing nodded slightly to Ye Yunke in response.

"Since I have come here to ask the question, I should have the right to do so, shouldn't I?" A voice interrupted them. They looked at Yun Tiansheng, who stood proudly with golden light shining on him. He had come here to ask the question, so what if he offended everyone?
"Ask away if you want to ask. Who do you want to find?" Yan Chong replied bluntly. He was a guest, but he wouldn't tolerate someone who came to question him.

Yun Tiansheng looked at the people from Baiyujing Academy, then shifted his gaze to a figure not far from him.

Li Fan seemed to sense something and turned around to look, only to see Yun Tiansheng's sharp eyes and howling fighting spirit.

Li Fan: "?"

"Before that, there is one more matter to attend to," Yun Tiansheng said. "Yun Tiansheng, the Holy Son of Tiandu Palace, will escort you back."

As soon as he finished speaking, he arched his back and soared into the sky. Floating high in the air, Yun Tiansheng looked down and saw the Great Dao Wheel appear, its countless patterns lighting up like divine generals, seemingly ready to emerge at any moment.

"Let's settle our matter first," Yun Tiansheng said, staring at Li Fan.

"Does he think you're easier to bully?" Qi Zhanyun asked Li Fan beside him.

"Shouldn't you be easier to bully?" Li Fan replied.

Qi Zhanyun: "?"

Look down on people?

However, what he said seems to make some sense?

"Be careful. Without the array's restrictions, Yun Tiansheng's Daoist attacks should be very powerful," Qi Zhanyun warned.

“You said it yourself, he’s just a clown. I’ll be right back,” Li Fan said, then he flicked his sleeve and rose straight into the sky.

"That's arrogant enough." Qi Zhanyun was stunned, staring at Li Fan's figure in astonishment.

He was just saying it; did Li Fan really take it seriously?

Everyone turned their gazes toward the sky. Yun Tiansheng had been humiliated time and again, and he must be feeling deeply resentful. He was probably looking for someone to vent his anger on.

"If you're going to fight, be careful not to damage my academy buildings," Yan Chong said calmly, reminding them that a battle fought with full force by someone at the Dao Body Realm could be quite noisy.

Xiao Lu and An Zhiyao also arrived at Yan Chong's side at this time. Xiao Lu and An Zhiyao greeted Mu Changqing and Ye Yunke, saying, "Young Master, Your Highness."

Mu Changqing returned the greeting politely, and Ye Yunke smiled and said, "I have long heard of Xiao and An's names, and seeing them today, their charm is even more impressive than I imagined."

"Your Highness is too kind," Xiao Lu replied, then looked at An Zhiyao and asked, "Did these two have a conflict when you asked?"

“There was a conflict.” An Zhiyao nodded and looked towards Li Fan.

"Who will win?" Xiao Lu asked.

“The former Holy Son of Tiandu Palace was killed. Yun Tiansheng is eager to prove himself, but he has chosen the wrong opponent.” An Zhiyao said softly, “He will undoubtedly lose, and he will suffer a crushing defeat.”

"Tiandu Palace suffered a terrible defeat this time," Ye Yunke said with a smile.

"Oh?" Xiao Lu asked curiously, "Why do you say that?"

"When that person was going through the last step of the stairs, he and two women passed through in an instant using their agility," An Zhiyao said. Xiao Lu was taken aback, then looked at Li Fan with a more serious expression.

He was naturally familiar with the Heavenly Ladder Pass and could pass through it in an instant.
This cannot be achieved simply through movement techniques.

Ye Yunke listened quietly. If An Zhiyao gave such an evaluation, then Li Fan must have extraordinary abilities.

Mu Changqing also looked up in that direction, thinking to himself that there were really a lot of geniuses in Dali.

Li Fan's figure soared into the air, and an extremely strong sense of oppression swept over him. Above him, Yun Tiansheng's Dharma Image was awe-inspiring, and the Great Dao Wheel revealed the images of all living beings. Within that Dharma Image, a huge divine general appeared and stood behind him.

Then, one after another, the figures of gods appeared, lined up in a row, looking down at the land below, a terrifying scene.

"The Divine Pagoda of Tiandu Palace, Yun Tiansheng has achieved great success in his cultivation." Everyone thought to themselves as they saw the scene before them. Divine might descended, and brilliant golden divine light pierced through heaven and earth. The row of divine generals raised their spears.

"You dare to question me?" A voice resounded through the sky, like the voice of a god. All the gods simultaneously thrust out their divine spears, golden light piercing through the sky. All that could be seen were huge golden spears piercing through, trying to pin Li Fan to the ground.

"Boom..." A golden beam of light shot into the sky, and a loud dragon roar shook the heavens. Li Fan's terrifying aura soared into the clouds, and the Spear of the Gods fell, piercing the body of the golden dragon.

The golden dragon enveloped Li Fan's body, as if it had become one with him.

Li Fan looked up at Yun Tiansheng, the golden dragon carrying his body upwards. He looked at Yun Tiansheng with disdain: "A person should know their own limitations, but you seem to lack them."
