How come the celestial technique I stole is so powerful?!

Chapter 564: Chapter 563: Light Cloud Leaves the Valley, Gone from the World
This is definitely not the stance of hiding one’s identity.
What he wants is for the upper echelons of Luanyun Heaven to know, the one who stirred Kun Cang into chaos has returned!
He needs to attract the attention of one person.
This person is Dawa!
Dawa means “Moon” in Tibetan.
Yes, this moon was once shrouded in “Qing Yan,” perhaps even today, like “Qing Yan,” remains unfathomable in the Qianlong King’s understanding.
But Lin Xiaosu wants to meet her.
He wants to know if the mist over this moon has dissipated.
A former Nirvana of Nine Headed Snake wouldn’t warrant such effort, but Dawa is an exception!
What she did that day brought him some warmth.
Out of that warmth, he must give her a chance…
Time passed minute by minute.
Noon arrived.
Suddenly, in the north of Luanyun City, in the direction of Two Realms Mountain, the aura changed.
Clouds rose, the wind flew, in an instant, the grass and trees in the mountains moved together.
Clouds swirled, a uniquely elegant umbrella appeared amidst the clouds, spun, and landed atop the cliff in the north of the city.
Everyone in the city looked up, staring at the umbrella and the person beneath it.
Feng Ji on the bed suddenly opened her eyes and stepped onto the balcony.
Her fierce gaze penetrated through ten miles of air, fixating on the person atop the northern cliff.
“Did you see the words on the umbrella? ‘Light clouds emerging from the valley,’ no one in the world!” Feng Ji said, “Leng Qingquan’s son, Leng Feiyun!”
Lin Xiaosu laughed, “Holding an umbrella in clear weather, appearing atop a cliff, he’s either sick or a show-off!”
“He’s just giving the whole city a chance to worship him,” Feng Ji said.
“Worship him? Is he worthy of worship?”
“Perhaps he thinks he is…”
In the restaurants below, countless people opened windows, looking at the elegant umbrella appearing atop the cliff in clear weather.
The umbrella moved, clouds rose, the wind flew, the person beneath stepped off the hundred-foot cliff.
In the restaurants, everyone focused on this umbrella gasped.
Amid the gasps, Leng Feiyun floated to the ground, with a step, traversed over treetops, a patch of grass, over the city wall, landed on the long street, step by step approaching.
From the brothel on both sides, screams echoed.
In the restaurants, there were also women’s screams.
“Young Master Feiyun!”
“Young Master Feiyun has arrived…”
“I personally think…” Feng Ji said, “Such a show-off deserves a beating, but killing him outright seems inappropriate.”
Lin Xiaosu laughed, reached out, picked up a teacup, and refilled it.
Amid the girls’ screams, Leng Feiyun approached step by step, with a swish, eight figures flew up from the restaurant, landed before Leng Feiyun, simultaneously bowed, “Young Master!”
Leng Feiyun did not spare a glance at these eight Jianghu experts, his gaze slowly lifted.
He looked towards the balcony on the third floor of the restaurant, where Lin Xiaosu was.
Lin Xiaosu leaned against the chair, holding the teacup, surveyed him from above.
“Outsider, Lin Xiaosu?”
Leng Feiyun said seven words.
The seven words were not particularly loud, yet they covered half the city.
The entire city was taken aback simultaneously.
“Outsider? Lin Xiaosu? Is it really him?” someone exclaimed.
“It’s him! When he sealed off Kun Cang, I was in Li City, I saw him personally, the image left by the array, was this annoying expression.” someone said.
“If it’s him, there will be a good show; Young Master Feiyun once swore a venomous oath to slaughter the Lin family completely clean…”
“I doubt whether this person is really Lin Xiaosu, if it were him, how would he dare enter Luanyun Heaven? Isn’t that madness…”
For a while, the whole city was in chaos.
Chaos caused by the name Lin Xiaosu.
Chaos caused by the massive storm he created when sealing off Kun Cang.
Is this person really Lin Xiaosu?
Lin Xiaosu holding the teacup, leaned on the railing, looked down, “Yes!”
It’s actually him!
The whole city seemed like a shockwave swept across it…
Leng Feiyun spoke, “Do you know who I am?”
“Sir, with your ostentatious entry from the cliff, the effect you’ve aimed for is achieved, amidst the city’s commotion, I recognize you, Leng Qingquan’s son, Leng Feiyun! Right?” Lin Xiaosu said.
At the mention of Leng Qingquan, the umbrella in Leng Feiyun’s hand suddenly remained motionless, the swirling clouds around instantly like rolling waves, his voice emerged from the waves, filled with killing intent, “Lin Xiaosu, is the vengeance for a father’s death due?”
Vengeance for a father’s death, is it due?
These seven words, no matter the occasion, portend boundless storm.
At this moment from Leng Feiyun’s mouth, the entire Luanyun City seemed like a storm brewing.
Winds and clouds swept, a step from spring to winter.
Yet, atop the tall building, it still seemed like spring is bright.
Lin Xiaosu calmly said, “You want to avenge your father’s death, you must first understand why your father died.”
“Why?” two words like a sword, pointed directly at the high building, as if to pierce the sky.
Lin Xiaosu said, “Because he was stupid!”
As the four words fell, the swirling clouds around the umbrella suddenly seemed completely solidified.
Leng Feiyun’s flowing hair also suddenly became motionless.
Everyone in the city who heard these four words felt a simultaneous sinking in their hearts.
Because the utterance of these four words marks an unending battle between the two sides.
Lin Xiaosu slowly stood up, “Kun Cang within the world, a mere speck! The so-called giants of Kun Cang, those who follow the heavens and aid the world are respected by all, yet those who seek personal gain and wreak havoc upon the world, are no better than ants blocking a chariot, courting their own doom!”
These words like thunder, descended from the void.
Everyone in the city felt their hearts pounding.
For the first time in their lives, they experienced the toughness of Lin.
Even though he was in an away match, he displayed the charm of a home ground.
Though everyone felt that this young man was a bit domineering, adhering firmly without yielding an inch, they couldn’t deny the righteousness in his words.
Feng Ji stood on the balcony, looking at his half-profile, listening to this strong declaration, feeling a bit captivated and bewildered at the same time.
Captivated by his magnificence; even in an away arena, he remained passionate and inspiring. It was indeed more moving than the deliberate elegance of Leng Feiyun.
Bewildered by: were these words really meant for Leng Feiyun?
Or perhaps… were they meant for Chi Lian?
Entering Luanyun Heaven, theoretically, his life dangled in Chi Lian’s hand, yet he spoke publicly. It could be an explanation for Leng Qingquan’s death, or a warning to Chi Lian.
Isn’t this a bit over the top for a starting point?
“Lin Xiaosu! You speak of courting death, today I will make you understand what courting death truly means!” Leng Feiyun’s voice fell, and the umbrella spun suddenly.
As the umbrella spun, the seven large characters on its surface changed myriadly.
Gentle clouds arise in the world no more!
At this moment, he was the rare and elusive flowing cloud of the world!
Sss!
The flowing cloud rose through the air, flying over five zhang high!
Far above Lin Xiaosu’s position on the third-floor balcony.
Swish!
Under the umbrella, a sword was drawn!
As the sword emerged, clouds floated across the sky.
“A single sword that disturbs the heavens’ clouds, his Flowing Cloud Sword Way must not be inferior to his father’s!” someone exclaimed.
“Exactly, the swordsmanship of Young Master Feiyun is inherently his strongest Dao; he merely lags behind his father in terms of Enlightenment Realm Cultivation!”
The exclamations echoed throughout the city.
This sword, accompanied by flowing clouds, crossed over the street above to the top of the tavern, with a poof, rolled into the flowing clouds, turned into a flying waterfall.
“So beautiful…” Inside the brothel, a woman almost fainted.
Just as the sky full of clouds approached the third floor of the tavern, Lin Xiaosu raised his hand, suddenly a long sword appeared in his palm.
As the long sword appeared, the sky changed suddenly.
The city in bright daylight transformed instantly into Misty Rain Jiangnan!
The tavern was enveloped in mist and rain.
A hundred flowers bloomed!
The flowing cloud and blossoms collided, and the flowers instantly filled the sky.
The people below were all dumbfounded.
What kind of swordsmanship is this?
Why is it so beautiful?
Far more beautiful than the sword technique exhibited by Leng Feiyun just now!
If Sword Dao could be judged by beauty, Lin Xiaosu’s Li Ren Tears would completely overpower Leng Feiyun’s Flowing Cloud Waterfall style.
However, Sword Dao is not a beauty pageant…
Leng Feiyun shook his hand, dividing the flowing cloud, and a sword emerged from it. This sword moved with unparalleled speed, almost a miraculous creation within Sword Dao.
This was indeed a Slaughtering Sword.
The Slaughtering Sword pierced through, instantly annihilating one hundred and seven out of the one hundred and eight large flowers in Lin Xiaosu’s Li Ren Tears.
However, the final flower soared through the air…
As all flowers wither one takes flight, henceforth in the human world, style no more!
Poof!
This remaining flower pierced through Leng Feiyun’s Dantian.
Blood splattered, drop by drop like Li Ren’s Tears.
Leng Feiyun’s eyes widened; on his face, horror, pain, disbelief flooded through every expression for an instant, a heart-rending scream broke out as he fell…
The people below widened their eyes, none could believe their eyes.
Leng Feiyun, at the pinnacle of Observing Heaven, even claimed invincible among the Enlightenment Realm (regardless of other sects’ opinions, at least everyone in Luanyun Heaven believed so).
He came out to avenge his father, to highlight the Leng Family’s name, putting on a great show, theoretically capable of defeating anyone except giants of the Enlightenment Realm.
Yet, this outsider, obviously not from the Enlightenment Realm, with just one move, shattered Leng Feiyun’s Qi Sea Dantian.
Is this possible?
How did he accomplish this?
How dare he do this?
Leng Feiyun, the son of the late giant Leng Qingquan, is currently the son-in-law of Luanyun Heaven’s sole leader Chi Lian!
An outsider comes to Luanyun Heaven, cripples the absolute leader’s son-in-law here, aren’t you courting death?
No matter how much disbelief there was, facts remained facts.
No matter how unwilling Leng Feiyun was, losing his cultivation, falling from high above, was irretrievable…
Suddenly, a palm appeared from the direction of Two Realms Mountain!
The palm emerged with a sound of thunder!
With a thunderous boom, this palm covered Luanyun City, a flip of a palm seemed to overturn heaven and earth.
As the palm steadied, Leng Feiyun landed upon it.
A figure a hundred zhang tall appeared in the void over Luanyun City.
This man, with a head of red hair, commanded respect without anger.
At this moment, he was angry!
An overwhelming oppression shrouded the entire city.
“Sect Master Chi!”
Countless people in the northeast knelt down.
“Sect Master!” Countless people in the southeast knelt down.
On every street in the city, in every tavern, everyone stood up…
Bowed.
Chi Lian seemed to ignore everything in the city; he only looked at one person.
The person on the balcony.
Lin Xiaosu.
