Battle Through the Heavens: Taking advantage of Xun'er's naivety, trick her into becoming

Chapter 44 Yunyun vs. Yunshan: Times Have Changed

"How arrogant Xiao Bai is!"

"As expected of a seventh-grade alchemist, this level of confidence doesn't even put a Dou Zong in their eyes!"

"Yun Shan is now a Dou Zong, the only Dou Zong expert in the Jia Ma Empire. If Xiao Bai doesn't give him face, it might cause more trouble!"

As everyone discussed, the majestic aura emanating from the depths of Yunlan Mountain grew stronger and stronger, until finally, a clear whistle suddenly soared into the sky.

Under the watchful eyes of countless people, a white figure suddenly emerged from the depths of Yunlan Mountain, then stepped into the void and slowly approached the Yunlan Sect Square.

The white figure did not summon wings of battle qi, but its speed in walking through the void was no slower than that of Jia Xingtian and the others. Every time it stepped down, ripples would spread across the void. When the ripples dissipated, the figure would have already appeared a hundred meters away, which was extremely mysterious.

After taking several such steps, in just a short while, the figure appeared atop the stone platform.

He was dressed in a very simple white robe. A gentle breeze blew, and the robe billowed, giving him an air of otherworldly elegance. He didn't look very old; his face didn't have the wrinkles that old people usually have. Instead, he looked like a piece of warm jade radiating a soft glow.

Her long, snow-white hair cascaded down her back, making her look extraordinary!

The person who came was none other than Yun Shan, the previous sect master of Yunlan Sect!

He fixed his gaze on Xiao Bai and said calmly, "Today, there are indeed some things that need your attention."

"No!"

Xiao Bai retorted without hesitation, his attitude incredibly firm.

A mere Dou Zong dares to cause trouble here.

If he keeps whining, Xiao Bai wouldn't mind taking his anger out on him like a punching bag.

You can't use a trial card on Queen Medusa, but you can't even use it on a minor boss like yourself?

Yunshan narrowed his eyes slightly, his face showing no emotion. After sighing, he said, "The Yunlan Sect needs pillars of talent like you, but that doesn't mean you can be so arrogant."

"Little Bai~ This is my master, can you please communicate with him properly..." Yun Yun said with some difficulty, her red lips slightly parted.

"He is no longer your master."

Xiao Bai gazed at the cloud-covered mountains before him and said indifferently.

According to the novel, Yunshan collaborated with the Soul Hall in order to break through to the Dou Zong realm, but his soul was tampered with by the Soul Hall. Influenced by the Soul Hall, Yunshan's personality changed drastically, transforming him from someone who loved quiet cultivation into someone ambitious.

In the context of cultivation, this is called "going into demonic possession"!

"What! How is this possible?"

Yun Yun's beautiful eyes flickered slightly as she looked at Yun Shan to the side in disbelief.

Both his aura and appearance are indeed those of her master.

But Xiao Bai is definitely not someone who likes to talk nonsense.

What exactly happened?

Yunshan chuckled and said calmly, "If I am not her master, then who in the world is qualified to be her master?"

Such an overbearing tone silenced many people in the room.

After all, given the state of the Dou Qi Continent, there are countless individuals who surpass the Dou Zong level, so how could there be no one qualified to be Yun Yun's master?

However, now that Yunshan has broken through to the Dou Zong level, no one dares to oppose him with such power.

"Do you really think that a mere lackey of the Soul Hall could have any good way to help you break through to the Dou Zong realm?" Xiao Bai said calmly.

Hearing the chilling name uttered lightly from Xiao Bai's lips, Yun Shan's pupils constricted sharply, and his voice became hoarse and sinister.

"You actually know about the Soul Palace? And you even know about Protector Wu's existence?"

The Soul Palace is a behemoth standing tall in the Central Plains!

A young man from a remote town not only knew about the existence of the Soul Palace, but also knew who was behind his breakthrough to the Dou Zong realm!

How could he not be surprised?!

The people around them were completely bewildered.

Because nobody actually knows what the Soul Palace is.

However, old foxes like Jia Xingtian and Nalan Jie keenly sensed from Xiao Bai's words that there was more to Yun Shan's breakthrough to Dou Zong than met the eye!

"Protector Wu, that ant-like thing is probably hiding in some corner right now, waiting for me to refine the pill you need so that you can steal my soul, right?"

Xiao Bai glanced at Yun Shan with disdain, then calmly sat down on the sect leader's throne, picked up the cool tea in front of him, and continued to drink.

"You truly are extraordinary!"

Yunshan looked at Xiao Bai, who was calm and collected, and a look of surprise flashed across his face.

He initially planned to use his identity to trick Xiao Bai into refining several Rank 7 pills for him, and then have Protector Wu steal Xiao Bai's soul, while also taking a share of Xiao Bai's treasures!

I never expected Xiao Bai to know so much.

The feeling of being seen through at a glance filled him with both terror and immense anger.

"Master, you have disappointed me greatly!"

Yun Yun's red lips trembled as she couldn't help but shout angrily.

Her jade-like hand gripped the long sword tightly, blocking Xiao Bai's path, and she watched Yun Shan warily, ready to strike at any moment.

She would not allow anyone to harm Xiao Bai!

"I didn't expect you to have already broken through to the Nine-Star Dou Huang realm. Unfortunately, that's not enough!"

Yun Shan glanced coldly at Yun Yun, then with a flick of his sleeve, a surge of powerful, deep blue battle qi erupted from his body.

He unleashed a punch at lightning speed, causing the space around him to tremble continuously.

The powerful figures from the surrounding Empire, witnessing this scene, became extremely solemn. A Dou Zong expert was indeed terrifying.

However, Yun Yun calmly gripped her sword and slashed horizontally. The terrifying wind-based battle aura transformed into a forbidden zone in front of her, forcefully blocking Yun Shan from entering.

"How can you be so strong?"

Yunshan's pupils suddenly contracted, and he stared at Yunyun with great surprise.

Although Yun Yun had not broken through to the Dou Zong level, her strength was in no way weaker than his!

"You're too weak."

Xiao Bai took a sip of tea and spoke calmly.

Those who are forcibly promoted to the Dou Zong level through unorthodox methods are inherently weaker than ordinary Dou Zong.

Yun Yun possesses Heaven-rank cultivation techniques and Heaven-rank combat skills, making her combat power far exceed that of an ordinary nine-star Dou Huang. With one rising and the other falling, the difference is naturally not significant.

Moreover, Xiao Bai felt that Yun Yun defeating Yun Shan was not a problem.

"You're talking nonsense!"

"Our sect will show you with facts that before a Dou Zong expert, a Dou Huang is nothing but an ant, utterly vulnerable!"

Yunshan was furious, his face contorted with rage, and the deep blue energy around him became even more intense.

In the blink of an eye, Yun Yun and Yun Shan collided in the sky, and immediately, thunderous energy explosions and ripples of energy resounded and appeared in the sky.

Xiao Bai, however, remained calm and composed as he sipped his tea.

Jia Xingtian, Fa Ma, and the others had already gathered around Xiao Bai.

"Young friend Xiao Bai, since there are powerful figures lurking in the shadows, you must be extra careful!"

Jia Xingtian was on high alert, his eyes scanning his surroundings intently.

He understood that only by protecting Xiao Bai could the Jia Ma Empire have any hope; otherwise, if Yun Shan gained power, the Jia Ma Empire would surely be doomed!
