"Someone must have contacted him in advance?"

Yu Xueru is not really a fool, it’s just that she has always been arrogant and her thinking habits are different from those of ordinary people.

Considering that Cao Ze was in the county town, which was An Changlin's territory, it was normal that she did not receive the news.

kill him!

The next moment, Yu Xueru had made a decision in her heart. A flash of murderous intent flashed across her eyes, and even the air around her became a little colder.

If she can't get it, no one else can either.

However, before she could take action, the sky darkened and she could faintly see stars twinkling among the clouds.

A splash of cold water woke Yu Xueru up instantly.

This is An Changlin’s territory!
The stars flashed and the sky became bright again.

Yu Xueru's back was already soaked with cold sweat, and she knew that An Changlin was warning her.

If she was not the king's woman, she would have been a corpse just now.

Swish!
With a flash of her figure, Yu Xueru ran straight out of the county city, not daring to stay in Donghai County City any longer.

Back on the island of the Iron Hat Group, in the main hall, Yu Xueru was a little dazed for a moment. She didn't understand why someone would travel thousands of miles just to recruit a little guy at the Grandmaster level.

Even if this little guy has great potential, does he deserve such treatment?

Moreover, he offered the little guy the treatment of a dusi-level official, but he showed no sign of being interested. So, did the person who recruited him offer him a price higher than that of a dusi-level official?

how is this possible.

The talent he displayed was not even up to the commander level.

Who on earth is doing such a mess?

Chu Xuanzhong looked at Yu Xueru, who was sitting on the main seat in the hall, and reminded her, "It is better to report this matter to King Cheng. Whether it is to continue to increase the bargaining chips to win him over or to strangle him in the cradle, it is no longer a decision we can make, nor is it something we can do."

"Report?"

Yu Xueru woke up from her trance, repeated the sentence, and then her eyes immediately became sharp.

If I report it, wouldn't it be equivalent to admitting my mistake in front of King Cheng?
So when will I be able to return to King Cheng?

As long as it is not reported, no one will know about this matter. He is just a little guy who may achieve the Dharmakaya. Not to mention that he is a grandmaster, even if he really breaks through to the Dharmakaya, His Royal Highness King Cheng will not take it seriously at all.

King Cheng would not pay any attention to such an ant, so naturally he would not blame himself.

So it must not be reported!
The look she gave Chu Xuanzhong became increasingly fierce and cold.

Only the two of them knew about this matter. If Chu Xuanzhong died accidentally, then this matter would be unknown to anyone.

Chu Xuanzhong felt a chill on his back, as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake, and his hair stood on end.

He guessed Yu Xueru's idea at the first moment, and was startled. He quickly clasped his fists and said, "This matter is entirely up to Lord Yu to arrange. I will take my leave first."

Yu Xueru did not stop her, but just had a sneer in her eyes.

run?
Can you run?

……

At Qingming Peak, cheers suddenly erupted in Fifth Senior Sister’s spiritual herb garden.

Yun Danyao and Chen Tianyi were dancing with joy, so excited that they couldn't control themselves. They hugged and kissed each other to express their joy in this way.

They succeeded!
The method that my junior brother mentioned can really be realized!

They transplanted the cold-resistant substance produced by the Tianshan Ice Lotus into the Blood Phoenix Flower. As a result, a Blood Phoenix Flower that could survive in a normal environment actually grew, and its medicinal properties were no different from those of a normal Blood Phoenix Flower!

Of course, even such a simple attempt took the two nearly a year and they failed countless times.

But this success undoubtedly confirmed the feasibility of the junior brother's hypothesis. They may really be able to create a Xuanling Tianqiong that is hundreds or even thousands of years old!

Not only Xuanling Tianqiong, this technology will cause a storm in the spiritual plant world!
This is epoch-making technology!
My junior brother is truly a genius!
After celebrating for a while, they suddenly realized that their celebration seemed a bit rude. They became reserved again and the atmosphere became ambiguous.

After this incident, the window paper between the two was finally broken.

Swish!
Just then, a stream of light flew in.

It's a communication talisman.

After reading the information from the communication talisman, the two of them finally learned about what had happened recently in Donghai County City. They couldn't help but look at each other, feeling a huge shock in each other's eyes.

My junior brother is growing up so fast!
It has only been such a short time and he has already defeated the ninth place on the Tianjiao List!

But soon, their eyes fell on a few blood phoenix flowers in front of them.

With Junior Brother's talent, it seems normal for him to do these things.

With this in mind, the two of them stopped thinking about it, squatted down, and continued to study the trait transplantation.

“Senior Brother Cao is too strong. Even Chu Feng, who is ranked ninth on the Tianjiao Ranking, is no match for him!”

"But Senior Brother Cao was said to have been expelled from Qingming Peak."

"What do you know? That was just a protection for Senior Brother Cao. Didn't you see that Senior Brother Cao still considered himself a disciple of Xuanbao Pavilion? I heard..."

"That's great! Our Xuanbao Pavilion also has a disciple in the top ten of the Tianjiao Ranking!"

"It is such a pity that I have never met Senior Brother Cao before!"

At Shenmu Peak, Jiang Yuanbai, whose injuries had long since healed, was walking on the mountain path, listening to the discussions of the inner and outer sect disciples, and he was also sighing in his heart.

Who would have thought that more than a year ago, he almost competed with Cao Ze for a woman.

Thinking about it now, I really broke out in a cold sweat.

"Senior Brother Cao is truly a role model for my generation. It would be great if I could have such talent!"

However, when he arrived at the direct disciples area, Jiang Yuanbai discovered that even the direct disciples were discussing this matter.

"I don't know what Xuan Jingsi is thinking. They haven't changed the list yet."

For Cao Ze, defeating the ninth on the Tianjiao list was nothing more than winning a battle.

For others, it is explosive news and a topic they enjoy discussing after dinner.

……

Outside the city of Donghai County, in the cloudless sky, a gorgeous rainbow streaked across the sky and in the blink of an eye it was outside the city gate.

At this time, a rainbow light shot up from the top of the city wall, blocking the way ahead. "Donghai County ahead, anyone waiting is prohibited from flying!"

Ye Shijie, dressed in a white robe, stood in the air, stopping the rainbow light and revealing a middle-aged man with a pointed chin and monkey cheeks.

"I thought it was the little guy who defeated Chu Feng."

"How dare this unknown person block your grandfather's way?"

The middle-aged man grinned with a fierce look in his eyes.

However, the next moment, the sky turned dark, stars appeared, and tremendous pressure enveloped the middle-aged man.

Ye Shijie has not slacked off these days and has also broken through to the second level of Grandmaster. If it weren't for Cao Ze, he would definitely be the most dazzling existence of this generation in Xuanbao Pavilion.

Coupled with the Zhoutian Star Array set up by Donghai County City, he can exert the strength of a fourth-level grandmaster within the scope of Donghai County City!

The middle-aged man with a pointed chin and monkey-like face changed his expression, then he landed on the ground without hesitation and walked towards the city gate.

He naturally saw that Ye Shijie had borrowed the power of the formation, and naturally he was not convinced. As he entered the city, he said sarcastically, "No wonder Chu Feng couldn't beat you. It turns out that you used such a despicable method. Ugh!"

"What did you say?" A disciple guarding the city glared at the middle-aged man and questioned.

With the blood pool about to open, great masters from all over Daqian are flocking to the county, making Donghai County much more lively and chaotic than before.

Many Xuanbao Pavilion disciples were assigned to maintain order, and the one guarding the city was none other than an outer sect disciple from Xinghui Peak.

And now, Cao Ze, who defeated Chu Feng, who was ranked ninth on the Tianjiao List, has already become their idol.

Naturally, no one can be insulted.

“Senior Brother Cao defeated Chu Feng head-on, so stop slandering him!”

The middle-aged man with a pointed chin and monkey cheeks sneered and secretly memorized the appearance of this disciple. He was not a magnanimous person.

"Oh? If that's the case, then why didn't Xuan Jingsi update the Tianjiao Ranking?
How come your senior brother Cao is not on the list yet?
How did you defeat Chu Feng? Do you still need to ask?"

Even though he had already formed the intention to kill this disciple of Xuanbao Pavilion, he still did not spare him with his words.

"You... that's because..."

This disciple of Xuanbao Pavilion hesitated.

They were also wondering, now that it was time to update the Tianjiao list, why hadn't Xuan Jingsi updated the list yet?

Is it really like this person said, that Senior Brother Cao won unfairly?

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"What a shitty Xuanbao Pavilion. It doesn't even have a single person in the top 20 of the Tianjiao list. I would say it should just be disbanded to avoid being laughed at."

The middle-aged man with a pointed chin and monkey face walked into the city laughing.

Ye Shijie's face also became very ugly. The long sword in his hand flashed and trembled constantly, eager to try.

But he still resisted the urge to attack.

These guys who came to Donghai County are all powerful people, and he doesn't want to cause trouble for his master.

Before one wave subsides, another wave arises. The middle-aged man with a pointed chin and monkey face had just left when another long rainbow broke through the sky in the distance.

Ye Shijie sighed lightly and also turned into a long rainbow that soared into the sky.

"Donghai County City ahead, no flying allowed!"

The long rainbow dissipated and stopped in mid-air, revealing the young man in white robes.

The young man first glanced at Ye Shijie, then looked up at the sky.

"No-fly?"

"Then let's see what you can do!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he opened his red lips slightly, the long sword was already in his hand, and he chanted the sword formula, and circles of light blue energy fluctuations suddenly surrounded his body, like ripples in the deep sea, or the gentleness of the first light of dawn.

As he swung the long sword in his hand, the tip of the sword lightly touched the void, and suddenly, thousands of sword shadows were like phoenixes, reborn from the ashes, transformed into brilliant sword lights, rushing straight into the sky. Those sword lights intertwined and rotated in the air, and finally converged into a dazzling sword pillar.

Ye Shijie was shocked. This was not a method that could be used by a Grand Master at all!
It can't be stopped at all.

But he soon breathed a sigh of relief, because the sword column was not coming towards him, but straight towards the sky!

The stars were shining brightly, and the next moment, the clear sky suddenly turned dark, revealing a sky full of stars.

It was as if the dormant power was awakened at this moment. They flashed with dazzling light, and the majestic and vast pressure came overwhelming, giving people the illusion that the sky was falling.

However, Ling Xiaoyu did not retreat. His sword intent became more determined and the power contained in the sword column became more powerful.

At the moment when the two were about to collide, the whole world seemed to tremble.

The sword pillars intertwined with the stars, bursting out with dazzling light and deafening roar.

The scene was so spectacular that it made people's hearts race, as if they were witnessing a magnificent epic in the universe with their own eyes.

But soon, the sword pillar disappeared, like a stone sinking into the sea, without causing any ripples.

"The Star Sword is indeed worthy of its reputation!"

The young man muttered to himself, did not attack again, landed lightly on the ground, and walked into the city of Donghai County leisurely, leaving only a graceful back.

The stars in the sky also disappeared at this moment, and the sky became clear again.

"Feathered Ascension Sword Technique!"

“This is Ling Xiaoyu!”

It was not until this time that Ye Shijie recognized the young man.

Has he already created the Dharma body?

No, he is not yet a powerful Dharmakaya. Recalling the scene just now, Ye Shijie shook his head.

But even so, he was already able to challenge his master!
Ye Shijie was extremely shocked.

He has always believed that he is extremely talented, but first he encountered the monster Cao Ze, and now there is the evildoer Ling Xiaoyu. He couldn't help but feel a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart.

He felt that the gap between himself and these true geniuses was as huge as the difference between heaven and earth.

even……

Ye Shijie shook his head.

Even Cao Ze, whom he could only look up to, had a huge gap with Ling Xiaoyu.

He had heard from his master that Senior Brother Cao now possessed the strength of a seventh-level Grandmaster.

But this Ling Xiaoyu is already able to challenge the great powers in the Dharmakaya realm!
Worthy of being the top of the Tianjiao list!

At the city gate, the disciples of Xuanbao Pavilion were also whispering.

"Who is this person? How arrogant!"

"Being able to take a blow from the city lord means he has the capital to be arrogant."

"This person is so young, he must be someone on the Tianjiao Ranking!"

"He is wearing a white robe and has superb swordsmanship. Could he be Ling Xiaoyu, the Feathered Ascending Sword who is at the top of the Tianjiao Ranking?"

"No wonder!"

"Only Zhili County can produce such a genius. Our Donghai County has not had anyone in the top ten of the genius list for many years."

"Don't underestimate yourself. Didn't Senior Brother Cao defeat the ninth place on the Tianjiao list?"

"That's right. In Donghai County, only Senior Brother Cao can compete with these geniuses."

However, one of the disciples who had traveled abroad and was well-informed shook his head and said, "Although Senior Brother Cao is strong, there are still many geniuses like Senior Brother Cao in Zhili County. Senior Brother Cao is still a certain distance away from being a true genius, let alone a peerless monster like Ling Xiaoyu."

The other disciples were also silent for a moment. Although they didn't want to boost others' morale and destroy their own prestige, the reality was often so cruel.

"I'm afraid that the leader of the blood pool will fall to Ling Xiaoyu this time!"

The others also shook their heads and sighed.

The Blood Pool originally belonged to the treasured land of Donghai County. It was a place of opportunity that could only be opened once after Donghai County had put in twenty years of efforts and spent a huge price.

But over the years, the people who have gained the greatest benefits from the blood pool have never been the people of Donghai County.

Although Senior Brother Cao showed up this time, which gave them some hope, they became pessimistic again after seeing Ling Xiaoyu. (End of this chapter)
