As the Universe Turns - Chapter 46

Chapter 46 Conflict
“Liu Chengfeng …”

Fu Ling’s gaze also sharpened. He still remembered that three years ago, when Cangfeng Valley came to “salute”, Liu Chengfeng’s arrogant gaze had not changed at all.

Six people slowly walked up. The arrogant youth at the front was Liu Chengfeng. He was also Cangfeng Valley’s most talented disciple in the past hundred years. He was accepted as a closed-door disciple by Cangfeng Valley Valley Master Liu Xuanyin.

Seeing that the atmosphere was frozen, Ye Runian walked forward with a smile on his face and bowed to his eyebrows, “Senior Sister Mei, long time no see.”

Xiao Yichen nodded slightly. However, the atmosphere at the scene did not ease because of their courtesy. At this moment, Liu Chengfeng’s eyes were like sharp unsheathed swords. He stared at Xiao Yichen’s face, and Xiao Yichen only looked at him indifferently. He recalled the scene of “snatching jade” three years ago.

The entire square gradually quieted down. Everyone looked over. The atmosphere became more and more solidified. Naturally, they knew that although there were four great sects now, apart from the Xuanqing Sect taking the lead, Cangfeng Valley had also developed like the sun in recent years. It was faintly comparable to the Xuanqing Sect.

“Hey! Why are you suddenly silent? Could it be that a hero sees a hero and feels grateful?”

While it was quiet, a man in gray suddenly appeared from nowhere. However, looking at that man, he was thin and had an ugly appearance. His ears were breezy, and his nose and mouth were wide open. He had actually rushed between Yichen and Liu Chengfeng to make fun of him.

Suddenly, such an ugly monster appeared. The atmosphere in the surroundings finally eased a little. However, Liu Chengfeng’s expression remained unchanged. He looked at Xiao Yichen and sneered, “I haven’t seen you for three years. I thought how capable you were. Now, it seems like you’re just a disciple waiting for the test.”

His words did not evoke much reaction, because no one knew Xiao Yichen here. However, the next sentence caused the entire audience to stir up excitement.

“I think a dignified disciple from ExcellencyYaoguang is nothing more than that.”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked. They all looked at Xiao Yichen with incredulous eyes. “What? Is he the disciple that Fairy Miaoyin accepted six years ago?”

At this moment, the entire plaza seemed to explode. Everyone present was shocked. When they heard that Qianyu Nichang was not a disciple of Fairy Miaoyin, they were already very shocked. Could it be that even someone with exceptional talent like Ni Shang could not enter Fairy Miaoyin’s eyes? The disciple that Fairy Miaoyin accepted must be a peerless genius that was rarely seen in a thousand years, but why was he such a disciple waiting for the examination?

Thinking back to how stunning Fairy Miaoyin was back then, just one person on the stage was an invincible opponent, but now her disciple was only a disciple waiting for the examination. This was truly ridiculous! Who could believe it?

The crowd couldn’t calm down for a long time. Liu Chengfeng smiled coldly. He was just about to leave when he didn’t want the ugly man to suddenly start laughing again. “Ah, ah, ah, no, no! You’re wrong, you’re wrong!”

Everyone pricked up their ears to hear what the ugly man was going to say, ‘”Fairy Miaoyin is Fairy Miaoyin, Fairy Miaoyin’s disciple is Fairy Miaoyin’s disciple, no one has any rules. Back then, Fairy Miaoyin beat you so hard that you couldn’t get up, so Fairy Miaoyin’s disciple also beat you so hard that you couldn’t get up,” he said solemnly, stroking a few sparse and uneven beards.

“You!”

Ye Runian’s junior brothers were instantly enraged. However, Ye Runian stretched out his hand and walked forward. He cupped his hands and bowed towards the ugly man. He smiled and said, “Senior Ghost, long time no see.”

“Aiyo! Little brother, do you recognize me?”

The ugly man tilted his body and raised his leg. He made a funny gesture and looked at him. Ye Runian smiled and said, “The world is famous for distinguishing ghosts from ghosts. Who in the world doesn’t know? Who in Jianghu doesn’t know?”

The stalemate was resolved just like that. The two elders on the platform exchanged glances and shook their heads with bitter smiles. One of them looked at the ugly man and said, “Ghost Three Terrace, Elder Qianyuan told you to go down the mountain the day before yesterday, so you can’t come up again. Why did you come up again today? Hurry up and go, don’t mess around here.”

“Aiyo! No, no!”

The ugly man said, “Elder Qianyuan asked me to go down the mountain the day before yesterday. The day before yesterday was the day before yesterday, but today is today. How can I be generalized? Besides, Elder Qianyuan asked me to go down the mountain, but the two writing elders did not say that I was not allowed to come up.”

The surroundings burst into laughter. It turned out that this person was Gui San Tai, who was called the “Ghost Debate Under Heaven”. To argue, no one in the world could argue with him. He could even talk about dead people alive.

Everyone on this side noticed Gui San Tai’s body, while on the other side, Xiao Yichen and the others had already left at an unknown time.

In the next few days, the official martial artists would need to enter the Profound Cave Realm to participate in the trial. Yichen, as a disciple waiting for the test, had nothing to do all day long. He could simply find a quiet place to cultivate. Since Mount Tiantai was the location of the Immortal Alliance, spiritual energy could be compared to other places. Although it was only a few days, it would be very beneficial for him to cultivate in another place.

This evening, Yichen was practicing Master’s Jade Light Heart Technique in a clear valley. and the profound arts passed down by Senior Monster, Over the years, He had long since understood that there was no separation between good and evil in this world, However, although the profound arts passed down by Senior Blame was somewhat different from the cultivation methods of the Xuanqing Righteous Dao Sect, they were not the kind of demonic arts that could drink human blood and devour human souls. On the contrary, they filled his internal energy much more than ordinary people. Therefore, he had always remembered the three things he had promised Senior Blame to cultivate this profound art.

The only thing he couldn’t figure out was, Sometimes late at night, When he cultivated the Mysterious Technique alone, he would occasionally feel an intense pain in his mind, and then some strange words would appear, vaguely controlling his cultivation direction. However, every time he woke up, he would never be able to remember what those words were. It was like a big dream, and this situation had become particularly obvious in the past year.

“Naturally, the Dao Art is the source, and it has thousands of changes, but its mind remains unchanged.” This was the only explanation he could give.

It was dusk outside. Yichen stood up and walked out of the cave. Today, he still had to go to Mei Jianyi’s place. In another three days, he would officially hold the Martial Meeting. I think those who officially participated in the Martial Meeting today should have also left the Cave’s Profound Realm.

Before they could get out of the valley, they heard noises coming from outside the valley. Yi Chen walked closer and saw more than a dozen figures outside the valley. Ten of them were men dressed in Cangfeng Valley’s clothes. The other three were Senior Sister Fu Ling and the other two Senior Sisters of Tianxuan Peak. They must have had a conflict with the people of Cangfeng Valley.

Yi Chen silently walked over. For some reason, there was a conflict between the two sides. At this moment, there was already tension between the two sides, and the dispute was getting more and more intense. However, Fu Ling and the other two were weak. Not to mention, they were also women. Obviously, they were going to suffer a loss. How could they possibly say anything more than Cangfeng Valley’s ten-odd mouths?

The two Senior Sisters of Skyjade Peak were already filled with anger as they coldly said, “There are different Dao Laws in the world. We have never said that Cangfeng Valley’s Dao Laws are inferior to ours. As for what happened, we will see for ourselves three days later. You won. Why are you still blocking our way now? Don’t bully others too much! I, Xuanqing Sect, am able to stand on the spot, not overnight!”

A purple-clothed man in Cangfeng Valley smiled and said, “Junior Sister, don’t misunderstand me. Since Junior Sister is unconvinced, why should we stop you?”

“You!”

Seeing that the two Senior Sisters of Tianxuan Peak were about to draw their swords, a faint voice suddenly came from not far away. “Cangfeng Valley is also a decent sect, not one of the righteous sects in Jianghu. Everyone should pay attention to your words and deeds and not lose the name of Valley Master Liu.”

“Junior Brother …”

Fu Ling looked in the direction where the voice came from. He couldn’t help but be slightly stunned. He didn’t expect that he would actually come out of this place these past few days. Didn’t he see everything outside just now? Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but blush. He lowered his head. He wasn’t good at learning, but every time he tried to force his way out, he would embarrass Xuanqing Sect.

“Heh, who is my Dao? So he is the only disciple of the famous Goddess Miaoyin?”

With the purple-clothed man as the leader, the other ten or so disciples of Cangfeng Valley began to laugh. Yi Chen ignored these people and walked straight to Fu Ling and the two senior sisters, “Let’s go.”

The three of them followed behind. For some reason, the other party was clearly Junior Brother, but the three of them were willing to listen to the little Junior Brother and no longer conflict with the people from Cangfeng Valley.

However, Shu Yu’s calm breeze did not stop. Before the four of them could move forward, the other party stopped them and smiled, “Why are you in such a hurry? They say that Fairy Miaoyin’s Dao Art is profound, but you don’t know if it’s useless. How about letting us experience it today?”

“You!”

Fu Ling was instantly enraged and was about to explode when he saw his junior apprentice-brother’s expression still cold, so he finally lowered his head and did not argue with these people.

“What? Don’t you dare? Ah, I forgot, you’re just a disciple waiting for the exam …”

Faced with repeated provocations, Yi Chen still turned a blind eye, because he remembered his master’s warning before he left that he couldn’t do anything outside. However, this made the other party even more inch by inch. The purple-clothed man smiled sinisterly and said, “No wonder he accepted such a handsome disciple. Even the ice-cold fairy in the sky, how could his heart be as still as water … Tsk tsk tsk.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the surroundings seemed to have entered a cold winter. Even Fu Ling couldn’t help but shiver. She could clearly feel the cold aura coming from her junior apprentice-brother.

“What? Do you want to make a move?”

Seeing Xiao Yi Chen suddenly stop, A dozen people immediately surrounded him. Fu Ling couldn’t help but tremble. He pulled his sleeve and shook it. In the Heavenly Gate, there was nothing wrong with sparring with each other. However, if they were to rise to the point where they fought ferociously, the consequences would be even more serious than in the Xuanqing Gate. Besides, Junior Brother, how could he be a match for these dozen people? He was afraid that he would suffer a loss.

“Senior Sister Fu Ling, take the two senior sisters to the side.”

Yi Chen finally turned around and looked at the purple-clothed man. At this moment, his gaze was like the frost in February. Even the air froze.
