CHAPTER 464: FOUR HUNDRED AND SIXTY-FOUR, TOO MUCH BULLYING!

Bang!

"Pfft!"

After dozens of exchanges, a loud noise erupted, followed by a figure sent flying backwards, already spurting a mouthful of fresh blood mid-air, but who else could it be than Xue Gong, the Jade Pot Sect disciple?

Sigh...

Chang Qing’s eyes and hands were quick, catching Xue Gong before he could hit the ground to avoid a second injury, but feeling the latter’s wilting breath, he couldn’t help but let out a silent sigh.

To be honest, Chang Qing had always looked down on Xue Gong, considering his senior brother hypocritical and narrow-minded, but at this moment, he couldn’t help but feel a bit of admiration.

"Tsk tsk, with such strength, daring to say you’re upholding the Sect’s dignity, it’s truly laughable enough to make others lose their teeth!"

Atop the stone platform, Mu Xuan from the Qingshan Sect, who had just won, his gaze flickered as he spoke arrogantly, his words causing all disciples of the Jade Pot Sect to glare angrily.

"Is there anyone else who wishes to uphold the dignity of the Jade Pot Sect?"

Mu Xuan paid no mind to these angry stares; after his words, the entire Jade Pot Sect fell silent, for among them, there was no one stronger than Xue Gong.

"If only Yun Xiao were here!"

For some reason, at this very moment, when the dignity of the Jade Pot Sect was greatly challenged, the image of a young man in simple clothing involuntarily surfaced in the minds of all Inner Sect disciples.

Back then, on the Spiritual Chick Battle List, Yun Xiao had successively defeated Yin Huan, Xue Gong, and Bi Luo, and in the final battle, he overcame the incomparably arrogant master brother of the Poison Vein, Yue Qi, to rightfully become the number one figure in the Jade Pot Sect.

Since that battle, no one saw Yun Xiao as just a disciple who had joined the Sect for a little over a year. He had reached the peak of the Sect’s younger generation, a height that others could only look up to.

It was just a pity that all hopes were in vain—after the end of the Spiritual Chick Battle List, Yun Xiao had disappeared without a trace, not even Sect Master Yu Shu knew more than that he had gone to the Lingtian Empire, with no precise information.

To pin all hopes on a person who was nowhere to be found was bizarre to everyone, but at this time, who else was there to stand up and uphold the dignity of the Jade Pot Sect?

"It seems no one dares to come up!"

After waiting a bit longer, Mu Xuan spread his hands, smiled helplessly in the direction of Li Yue, and eventually hopped off the platform. Following his departure, another figure leapt up onto the platform.

"I am Fei Yan from the Qingshan Sect, at the early stage of the Meridian Union Realm. My strength is far inferior to Senior Brother Li Yue and Senior Brother Mu Xuan. Are there any brothers from the Jade Pot Sect willing to step up and enlighten me?"

The newly ascended figure, calling himself Fei Yan, appeared quite polite. However, his insinuation was clear: the Jade Pot Sect only bullied the weak and feared the strong, daring not to face Mu Xuan or Li Yue, who were at the middle and late stages of Meridian Union Realm. Surely they wouldn’t shy away from his challenge, would they?

"Outrageous!"

Such tactfully veiled provocation finally infuriated the members of the Jade Pot Sect. A loud shout followed, and Chang Qing had already released Xue Gong, leaping directly onto the stone platform.

Chang Qing, who had just broken through to the early stage of Meridian Union Realm, believed that while he might not be able to defeat Mu Xuan at the Mid Stage of Meridian Union Realm, he should at least be able to match Fei Yan who was at the same early stage, right?

But what Chang Qing failed to see, as he leaped onto the platform full of confidence, was the look exchanged between Qingshan Sect’s Li Yan and Mu Xuan, an unabashed and mocking gaze.

"I admire Senior Brother Chang Qing’s courage!"

Fei Yan said with a polite smile, but as they were both at the early stage of Meridian Union Realm, such condescending tone made Chang Qing extremely uncomfortable. After all, within the Jade Pot Sect, he was always respectfully addressed as a senior brother.

"Less nonsense, let’s fight!"

Chang Qing’s voice dropped, his hands moving in swift motion, and on his left and right hands, a faint Light Seal emerged, the intermediate level Meridian Technique of the Spiritual Rank called Lightless Seal.

Although Chang Qing, who had just broken through to the early stage of Meridian Union Realm, hadn’t yet cultivated this Lightless Seal to a stage where the absence of light outshone the presence of it, its power had increased more than twofold since the time of the Spiritual Chick Battle List.

"Take my Seal!"

With another loud shout, two faint Light Seals burst forth from his palms, seemingly dim but power within not to be underestimated by anyone present.

However, this did not include Fei Yan. Seeing the two Light Seals coming at him, he didn’t dodge or evade, but directly thrust out his fists, aiming to blast through the two Light Seals.

Seeing this, Chang Qing couldn’t help but sneer. This was an intermediate level Meridian Technique of the Spiritual Rank; if hit directly, even a fifth rank low level Vein Demon might not be able to walk away unscathed, right?

Boom! Boom!

But what happened next made Chang Qing’s eyes bulge with disbelief, as if he couldn’t trust what he was seeing. Fei Yan’s fists actually managed to explode the two Light Seals directly.

That is a mid-level Spiritual Rank Meridian Technique, and after Yun Xiao’s improvements, this particular Meridian Technique is much more powerful than the ones practiced by many Elders of the Jade Pot Sect.

Even Chang Qing’s mentor, Elder Li Shan, was amazed when he saw his disciple using this mid-level Spiritual Rank Meridian Technique, and he even wondered if he had taught him wrong.

But now, the formidable mid-level Spiritual Rank Lightless Seal, a Lightless Seal cultivated to an extremely high realm, was easily dissipated by Fei Yan of the Qingshan Sect with just two light punches. Is this guy’s fist made of iron?

"Wow, Junior Brother Fei Yan’s ’Mountain Lifting Arm’ is getting more and more formidable!"

Below the stone platform, Li Yue was also full of astonishment, and after he spoke, Mu Xuan next to him kept nodding. They knew very well that although Fei Yan had lower Meridian Qi Cultivation than them, his Physical Strength was in no sense inferior.

Qingshan Sect was best known for its Physical Strength cultivation, and Fei Yan, with his exceptional talents, was born with incredible strength, truly an anomaly within the Qingshan Sect.

However, limited by his Meridian Qi, Fei Yan was only ranked third in the Qingshan Sect. But in terms of combat power, even Mid Stage Meridian Union Realm cultivator Mu Xuan would not dare to claim sure victory.

"An eye for an eye is only fair, Senior Brother Chang Qing, take my punch too!"

Just as Chang Qing was shocked, Fei Yan’s body shot out like a cannonball, and in an instant he was in front of him. His speed seemed not to be affected at all by his massive Physical Strength.

"Not good!"

Fei Yan moved so quickly and unexpectedly, that Chang Qing’s complexion greatly changed. In that moment, he was too late to dodge and could only cross his arms in front of his chest, his Meridian Qi bursting forth in hopes of withstanding this powerful strike.

Crack!

Fei Yan’s Physical Strength was undoubtedly terrifying. Chang Qing’s strong defense couldn’t last even a moment before a crumbling sound was heard, and then his arms were caved inwards.

After smashing Chang Qing’s arms, Fei Yan, relentless in his advantage, poured all his ferocious power onto Chang Qing’s chest, blasting his figure off the stone platform like a broken kite.

It seems that Fei Yan too is ruthless, speaking politely but showing no mercy in his attacks. The injuries Chang Qing suffered from this blow were much more severe than those of Xue Gong just now.

"Senior Brother Chang Qing!"

A chubby figure leapt out quickly; it was Ling Wan, his face full of sorrow, but he managed to catch Chang Qing, preventing even more severe injuries.

"Fei Yan, we agreed to a friendly spar. Isn’t your blow a bit too brutal?"

Ling Wan looked at the now unconscious Chang Qing, his anger bursting forth as he yelled out loud. However, this accusation was only met with a cold laugh from Fei Yan.

"Sorry, I might have gone a bit too far, but... I did not expect Senior Brother Chang Qing to be so fragile. I only used half my strength!"

Fei Yan’s first half of the sentence sounded apologetic, but his latter words angered all the disciples of the Jade Pot Sect. This guy was shamelessly boasting even after getting the upper hand.

"It seems there’s no one left in the younger generation of the Jade Pot Sect!"

Fei Yan shook his head on the stone platform, his face full of emotive gestures. However, his gaze turned to Mo Qing, as if ready to challenge her.

Whoosh...

And as Fei Yan’s provocative gaze landed on Mo Qing, a chubby silhouette appeared on the stone platform—the same little fatty who had just spoken.

"Peak of Meridian Rushing Realm?"

Fei Yan was slightly taken aback but sensed the little fatty’s Cultivation in the next moment and shook his head, saying, "Junior Brother, I’m relentless with my strikes. You should step down, lest you overestimate yourself and lose your life!"

In Fei Yan’s view, even Chang Qing, at the Early Stage of Meridian Union, was no match for him. Was this little fatty asking to be killed by climbing onto the platform? What could possibly give this little fatty such immense courage to face him?

Didn’t he see what happened to Chang Qing just now? Such a strike, if suffered by a Peak Meridian Rushing Realm Cultivator, would likely result in death and the dissipation of their cultivation, right?

"Hmph, if Yun Xiao were here, he wouldn’t allow you jumping clowns to strut around like this."

Having decided to take action, Ling Wan calmed himself. He had learned a bit of talking back after following Yun Xiao for a while and was no longer the meek and obedient little fatty he used to be.

"Yun Xiao?"

Suddenly hearing this name, Fei Yan on the stage had not yet reacted, but Li Yue, the top disciple of the Qingshan Sect below the stage, flashed a venomous look in his eyes.

It seemed he had not completely forgotten the humiliation Yun Xiao gave him at the King’s birthday feast. He even came today with the desire to meet the legendary Yun Xiao.

With Li Yue’s information, of course, he knew that half a year ago, Yun Xiao had won the Spiritual Chick Battle List of the Jade Pot Sect. But the overly arrogant him only thought that the talents of the Jade Pot Sect were lacking. If Yun Xiao faced him, he would definitely beat him to the ground.
