The overlord of the gods is interrogating the alien female spy.

　Xi actually wanted to see the guy who had beaten her up.

　The Taoist priest was also beaten up.

　As she thought about it, her gaze swept around her surroundings.

　The eldest among the court officials, a terrible chess player and a terrible calligrapher.

　The raspy-voiced gong player and the smelly embroiderer were watching the spectacle from the sidelines, making all sorts of clanging noises.

　And there's also the short guy who'll probably come over later to bring them food.

　There are already eight of them here, just from the film. The fact that the real dragon can still sit still shows that he has extreme trust in his elder brother.

　Not to mention the unruly江湖人 (jianghu people) and all sorts of petty thieves and monsters.

　If this gets out of hand, that'll be quite a scene; the entire kitchen will be in complete chaos.

　Whether or not these people can be controlled now rests entirely on the shoulders of this old master.

　"What if something happens..."

　Nine-Colored Deer glanced at the Qilin beside her, whose face was full of amusement, and then at her friend who was humming and snickering with a beaming smile, seemingly having already avenged himself. She decided that it was better to place her hopes on herself.

　There are over a hundred senior Celestial Masters in the Celestial Master's Mansion, all of whom are capable of sparring with her. The remaining youngsters would only be a waste of her energy, and she might not even learn anything from them. It would be better to let them be obedient spectators; that way, she could at least learn a few moves.

　Of course, at this point, someone should act as an interpreter, explaining the moves used by both sides to the common people, officials, and lawbreakers, so that everyone doesn't just sit there watching for entertainment without knowing the specifics of the situation.

　"Wild geese fly far and wide, their light unable to reach; fish and dragons leap and dive, leaving patterns on the water. The one who will now fight the old Celestial Master is the 131st Celestial Master of the Celestial Master's Mansion, Lord Qingguang!"

　"A tiny flame ignites the vast spring, a mighty furnace illuminates the deep night. Before the Lord of Qingguang, there was the strongest Celestial Master in the history of the Celestial Master's Mansion, the Great Wisdom Master of the Golden Feathers and the Blazing Flame of the Soaring Sky!"

　...I've said it hundreds of times already, don't say that name of her so excitedly!

　She truly regretted her youthful arrogance in choosing such a Taoist name. Back then, she hadn't paid attention in history class, only listening to the battles between Yuanshi Tianzun and the ancient Celestial Masters, thinking that reciting poems and announcing one's name upon entering the world was some incredibly cool thing.

　Now that she's older, when she fights with the younger generation, just hearing their admiring voices as they announce their names makes her feel awkward.

　I really don't know how that guy managed to have his name sung about the moment he appeared, without feeling ashamed at all.

　She secretly glanced at the Qilin Celestial Venerable, who was practically bursting into laughter, then breathed a sigh of relief and looked at her nephew, whom she had been fighting for decades.

　Qingguangbo, you can tell what kind of magic he knows just by his name, but when it comes to light, Qiongniao has a brighter and hotter magic to suppress it.

　"Although the title is full of meaningless words, 'Fire Technique' is the most fitting. You brat, don't blame me for burning your beard off!"

　The battle is about to break out.

　"Uncle Qingguang immediately unleashed his signature move, the Golden Light Leap, a technique that allows one to travel a thousand miles a day with incredible speed. How could the Celestial Master possibly counter it? The Celestial Master's fist struck! Uncle Qingguang... uh... fell to the ground..."

　In the quiet venue, only the slightly embarrassed voice of the narrator echoed.

　Everyone was stunned.

　Suddenly, the old man opposite them turned into light, and then the golden-winged bird calmly swung its fist. The golden light exploded, and the old man fell to the ground.

　A1 flashed in and got instantly killed. Is this a fixed match?

　"The Celestial Master killed Qingguangbo in one move! The Celestial Master is invincible!"

　"The Celestial Master's power is undeniable!"

　"So exciting, so exciting!"

　Ordinary people might not understand, but others will create the atmosphere. And people have a herd mentality; when they hear someone shouting "amazing!" and describing how wonderful it is, some people, unwilling to be seen as clueless, will join in the cheering.

　"..."

　Looking at its hands, the golden-winged bird's eyes suddenly lit up.

　Her strength seemed to exceed her own imagination.

　"It's too slow to do it one by one."

　The golden-winged roc pointed one finger to the sky and one finger to the earth, shouting to everyone.

　"I want to hit ten!"

　Chapter Sixty-Nine: Qilin Battles Golden Roc

　seconds.

　One second is still a second, and ten seconds are still a second.

　However, compared to one person, facing ten people simultaneously, the special effects brought by ten spells are more numerous and larger than those of one person, making it more enjoyable to watch. The commentator's lips were almost worn out; if he hadn't been well-versed in poetry and literature, he would have been racking his brains until he was breathless just reciting each person's opening poem.

　With this thought in mind, she didn't knock them down with a single punch like she did at the beginning.

　But the move name...

　To be honest, at her level, it doesn't matter what move she calls out anymore. She could even make up a Great Wilderness Imprisoning Heaven Finger after she shoved someone into the ground with her thumb.

　But that would be a waste of time; it's better to shut up and get to work.

　The onlookers could only see special effects like wind, earth, water, and fire. Once the effects faded, only the winner remained standing on the field.

　Although no one knew what had happened, it was already quite enjoyable to see it, especially since the other party was of such high status. After someone shouted out, cheers rose and fell.

　"Tch... These old Dengs are really useless."

　When Xi saw the Golden-Winged Bird that could fight ten birds without flinching, a hint of disdain appeared on her little face.

　It seems that she, who can hold her own against her opponent for dozens of moves, is now in this era of...

　He can now act with impunity even in the Master's mansion.

　"Amazing."

　As the nine-colored deer was reflecting on this, it suddenly looked at the qilin beside it.

　"What's wrong, Lulu?"

　"What does Ah Xu think of this... uh, Miss Yue?"

　The Qilin Celestial Venerable beside him is the source of all Celestial Masters. What is the quality of the strongest Celestial Master in history in his eyes?

　"It's hot……"

　"what?"

　"I mean, her fire, the temperature is pretty good."

　It was more than just good; even standing there, she felt the residual heat was hotter than the sun in the sky, and her clothes, which covered her up completely, made her sweat a little.

　"Yes. But the seemingly fierce and turbulent flames only knocked those celestial masters unconscious. This Miss Yue is quite skilled in controlling her power."

　The Nine-Colored Deer is not good at fighting, but that does not hinder her understanding of magic.

　This roc's control over power is so meticulous; it truly deserves to be called the strongest celestial master.

　"It's so tempting to watch!"

　On the arena, the Golden-Winged Bird was already in a frenzy of fighting. The old people were being helped and carried away in groups of ten. With the help of these celestial masters, her reputation soared.

　Her existence might bring the Yan people a greater sense of security than a true dragon.

　"Who else?!"

　How many more have been taken down?

　She'd long since given up on counting.

　The man wasn't lying to her; it was truly a precious egg that, once swallowed, meant her fate was in her own hands, not in the heavens.

　Physical strength and power are both doubled from their original levels, and then doubled again.

　She felt that once she had fully adapted to the benefits brought by the golden pill, the beast would be fully resurrected and could be easily subdued.

　The only problem is...

　He glanced at the central government officials in the imperial court.

　How will the true dragon of the Great Yan Dynasty view her?

　However, she felt that instead of worrying about herself, she should think about how to deal with the even more difficult one, the returning Celestial Master, Yuanshi Tianzun.

　His own golden core was entirely bestowed upon him by the other party through enlightenment. Just how powerful was the other party in reality?

　If he harbored even the slightest aversion to the Great Yan, who could stop the Great Yan from changing its name and surname?

　"Old Celestial Master, please take it easy."

　The Taoist priest giving the explanation greeted her in a low voice.

　"Those from the Celestial Master's Mansion who could compete with you have all fallen."

　In other words, she really has the power to monopolize the Celestial Master's Mansion?

　"..."

　"How did she become so strong?"

　"Damn it! She's always been arrogant and domineering. If no one can stop her today, she'll probably empty our savings, which our ancestors have worked so hard to accumulate!"

　Several Qilin Celestial Masters who were still conscious looked at the Golden-Winged Bird on the arena, feeling extremely distressed.

　"If no one else comes, then today's competition will continue..."

　She held her head high, taking in the cheers of the crowd, the astonishment of the young men, and the awe of the spirits. With that, her mission in this battle was complete.

　"Wait a moment!"

　Just then, someone suddenly shouted and appeared from the crowd.

　"Who are you?!"

　The narrator first glanced at the man, then suddenly realized.

　He was a Qilin Celestial Master, but judging from his appearance, he was quite young. It seemed that he had been itching to test his skills after witnessing the divine power of the old Celestial Master.

　"Young man, I know you admire the Celestial Master's divine power, but this kind of competition is not child's play. Let's hone our skills for another two years before coming back!"

　He was about to stop the other person, but instead of retreating, the person simply lightly touched the tiptoe, floated into the air, and landed gracefully on the stage.

　"I have long heard of the Celestial Master's divine power and brilliance, and seeing it today, I can confirm that his reputation is well-deserved. I would like to ask the Celestial Master for some guidance, and I hope that the Celestial Master will grant me this opportunity."

　Give me a chance?

　Give her a chance to shatter the prestige she has just built up?

　Looking at the Qilin Celestial Venerable in front of her, she didn't quite understand.

　What exactly is this person up to?

　"Old Master?"

　The exorcist had no choice but to look to the person who could make the decision.

　"You should leave."

　"Did you hear that, young man? The old master said..."

　He felt a tap on his shoulder, and when he turned around, he saw an extremely serious face.

　"I mean, you better stay away."

　"what?"

　Although he didn't understand, he immediately stopped talking and left the area.

　"Please enlighten me."

　Hopefully, this time she won't be defeated in one move again.

　"My name is Chen Lingxu. Please."

　Seeing that the other party was signaling her to attack first, the Golden-Winged Bird did not hesitate. Its first full-force burst after obtaining the Golden Core caused the world to change color.

　Above the clear blue sky, a patch of sky suddenly appeared, tinged with a fiery red glow.

　"Well come."

　Chen Lingxu watched as she managed to acquire the 'golden pill' for her own use in such a short time, and a hint of admiration appeared in his eyes.

　"In that case, I will practice with you a little longer."

　The dark robes transformed into black clouds, yet they could not conceal the pale scales on the armor.

　With a few quick movements, the man transformed into a humanoid Qilin and engaged in a fierce battle with the Golden-Winged Bird.
