ETERNAL MARTIAL EMPEROR, VOLUME 8 - Season 22 Episode 80

The cultivators below were alarmed and looked up instinctively.

An auspicious cloud floated above everyone’s heads and seven to eight figures stood on it. There were men and women with jade sect badges hung on their waists that fluttered slightly.

The expressions of the cultivators changed.

Nobody below realized when the auspicious cloud above their heads had floated over.

Judging from the jade sect badges on their waists, these cultivators on the auspicious cloud were legacy disciples!

Legacy disciples of the academy had appeared!

Under normal circumstances, outer sect disciples of the academy would not have the chance to come into contact with legacy disciples, let alone look up at them at such a close distance.

On the auspicious cloud, a man in a moon-colored white robe stood with his hands behind his back. His black hair fluttered and he had an indifferent expression, looking carefree and independent.

The other cultivators stood behind him like stars surrounding the moon.

The white-robed man’s body was tall and straight. Just by standing casually on the auspicious cloud, he was like an unsheathed sword that could slice the firmaments into two!

Many cultivators had complicated expressions in their eyes—there was respect, envy, fear and excitement…

Nobody noticed that Su Zimo, who was on the Sword Discourse Arena, averted his gaze instinctively and lowered his head slightly when he saw that person.

Many outer sect disciples did not recognize who the legacy disciples on the auspicious cloud were.

However, Su Zimo recognized the white-robed man leading them.

Sword Immortal Yue Hua!

Back then, a Pure Yang Spirit Treasure appeared on the Dragon Abyss Star and attracted three Perfected Immortals. One of them was Sword Immortal Yue Hua who was on the auspicious cloud!

At that time, Su Zimo was only a mere Black Immortal and Sword Immortal Yue Hua might not remember him.

However, he remembered Sword Immortal Yue Hua!

Initially, the reason why Su Zimo did not want to join Heaven and Earth Academy was because he was worried that something might happen if they interacted.

He had not expected to encounter Sword Immortal Yue Hua again after joining the academy for less than a thousand years.

When Yang Ruoxu saw Sword Immortal Yue Hua in the lead, a look of worry flashed through his eyes.

On the other side, Fang Qingyun’s lips curled.

On the auspicious cloud, Sword Immortal Yue Hua had not been looking over the entire time.

He stood on the cloud and looked into the distance, as though he was not interested no matter how lively the outer sect was.

A man walked down from the auspicious cloud.

Elder Jian hurried forward and cupped his fists. “Greetings, Senior Brother Xiao.”

Although he was a Perfected Immortal, he was only at the Convergence realm and his cultivation realm could not compare to the person before him—Xiao Li.

Furthermore, although inner sect Disciplinary Elders possessed immense authority, they could not control legacy disciples.

Therefore, almost all the legacy disciples in the academy had a higher status than the inner sect Disciplinary Elders.

“What’s going on? Why are there so many people?”

Xiao Li asked.

Just as Elder Jian was about to speak, Fang Qingyun, Tang Peng and Yan Bingying welcomed him and bowed. “Greetings, Senior Brother Xiao!”

“Oh, Qingyun. It’s you guys,”

Xiao Li seemed to be extremely familiar with Fang Qingyun and the others. He nodded slightly and smiled. “You guys have to cultivate well and condense your Dao Fruits as soon as possible to become Perfected Immortals. We’re waiting for you guys in the academy.”

Su Zimo had once heard from Princess Scarlet Rainbow that be it the outer or inner sect, neither was the true academy of Heaven and Earth Academy.

The true academy was where legacy disciples cultivated—that was the true paradise!

When Su Zimo saw how familiar Fang Qingyun and the other two were with Xiao Li, he knew that things would not go well.

Upon hearing Xiao Li’s words, Fang Qingyun smiled and nodded as well. “Don’t worry, Senior Brother Xiao. Once I obtain the number one of the Heaven Ranking for the academy at the Divine Firmament Immortal Meet, I’ll definitely condense a Dao Fruit and break through to the Perfected Immortal realm! At that time, I’ll have to seek your guidance, Senior Brother Xiao.”

“My cultivation is not enough,”

Xiao Li shook his head and looked in the direction of the auspicious cloud with a smile. “If you guys become legacy disciples, Senior Brother Yue Hua will naturally be the one to guide you.”

Fang Qingyun, Tang Peng, Yan Bingying and the others were delighted.

Right then, Fang Qingyun sighed and shook his head. “Unfortunately, Junior Brother Pang can no longer join us.”

“Junior Brother Pang?”

Xiao Li frowned slightly.

“Junior Brother Pang Yu!”

Gritting his teeth, Tang Peng glared at Yang Ruoxu and said hatefully, “Junior Brother Pang was killed by that lowlife Yang Ruoxu on the Sword Discourse Arena!”

“Yang Ruoxu!”

When he heard that name, Xiao Li’s expression changed and a cold glint flashed through his eyes.

Instinctively, he looked at Sword Immortal Yue Hua on the auspicious cloud.

Sword Immortal Yue Hua did not turn around still. However, the sharpness on his body seemed to have intensified and turned colder!

Xiao Li understood and turned to look at Yang Ruoxu, saying coldly, “Since you killed someone on the Sword Discourse Arena, you naturally have to pay with your life!”

The moment he said that, Yang Ruoxu felt a chilling intent envelop him.

It was as though a calamity was about to descend on him the next moment!

He was already targeted by the killing intent of a Perfected Immortal expert!

…

“Cough, cough!”

Gulping, Elder Jian coughed and probed carefully, “Senior Brother Xiao, there’s actually more to this matter. The reason is…”

“I don’t care if there’s anything more to things!”

Xiao Li waved his hand and said in a deep voice, “All I know is that Junior Brother Pang Yu was killed by this person on the Sword Discourse Arena. I have to seek redress for Junior Brother Pang!”

After saying that, the killing intent in Xiao Li’s eyes had already accumulated to its peak and he could attack at any moment!

Su Zimo had a grim expression and clenched his fists.

Pang Yu was killed by his Fleeting Moment.

Yang Ruoxu was taking the blame for him for this matter!

Yang Ruoxu had cultivated in the academy for many years and definitely knew about the many situations in the academy. He only told Su Zimo not to admit it because he expected this to happen.

But now that Yang Ruoxu was about to die in Xiao Li’s hands, Su Zimo could no longer hold it in.

He could not let Yang Ruoxu die for him!

…

Su Zimo strode forward and said in a deep voice, “Pang Yu…”

“Silence!”

Su Zimo had just said two words when Yang Ruoxu’s voice sounded in his consciousness. It was vast and righteous, causing his head to buzz and he could not finish his sentence.

Yang Ruoxu shifted slightly and blocked Su Zimo behind him. He looked at Xiao Li who was in midair fearlessly and shouted.

“Senior Brother Xiao, Junior Brother Pang did die on the Sword Discourse Arena. However, he tried to kill his fellow sect mates first. You disregarded the academy’s rules and wanted to kill me right away without uncovering the truth beforehand. Aren’t you afraid of the academy punishing you?!”

“What a glib tongue!”

Xiao Li’s expression was cold as he said icily, “How dare a lowlife who is a mere inner sect disciple threaten me! Let’s see who in the academy can punish me for killing you today!”

With that said, Xiao Li released a tremendous spirit consciousness pressure and descended, locking onto Yang Ruoxu’s figure to prevent him from teleporting away.

At the same time, Xiao Li extended his palm and True Essence condensed.

A gigantic True Essence palm materialized and slapped down in Yang Ruoxu’s direction mercilessly with a terrifying might!
