Chapter 51

The area before the Dimensional Martial Arts Conference was silent, not a single person dared to make any noise.

Xiaoran was also stunned by the beauty of the two Misty Flower Palace mistresses. Even though he had experienced many worlds and seen countless beauties on Earth, he was still amazed!

"Perhaps, the Bright Jade Art has a charm that bewitches people!

However, they are too cold. Little Palace Mistress Lianxing is a bit better, but Great Palace Mistress Yaoyue is as cold as ice, not like a human at all!"

With guests arriving, it was natural to show hospitality.

Currently, Xiaoyu and Ping'er were in charge of welcoming guests. Ping'er was clearly stunned by the reputation and beauty of the Misty Flower Palace mistresses, not knowing how to act, but Xiaoyu seemed unaffected, smiling and stepping forward: "Greetings to the two Palace Mistresses, thank you for gracing the Dimensional Martial Arts Conference with your presence!"

Yaoyue looked at Xiaoyu's face, though it was covered with scars, it was still exceptionally handsome, reminiscent of Jiang Feng from long ago.

Thinking of Jiang Feng, Yaoyue's heart felt as if it were being gnawed by a venomous snake, causing her great pain!

She endured the heartache and said coolly, "You are Jiang Xiaoyu!?"

Xiaoyu replied nonchalantly, "That's me. If you want Hua Wuxie to kill me, how could you not recognize me? Truly strange!"

Yaoyue still said coolly, "That is your destiny, you were born to live only one of you!"

Hearing this, Xiaoyu's anger flared up instantly. He had spent a lot of time with Hua Wuxie, and they got along well. Now, someone was using the word 'destiny' to make them fight to the death. How could he not be angry!

The angrier Xiaoyu became, the more he smiled, "If it's destiny, then it must have nothing to do with me, but rather with my dead father!

I once heard that my dead father died at your hands!

It's said that although my dead father's martial arts were decent and he had some wealth, these things probably didn't interest you two Palace Mistresses enough to make you kill him.

But my dead father, though he had many flaws, had one thing that no one could match—his stunning good looks. No woman who saw him could help but fall in love with him!

Could it be that you two fell in love with my father back then, but when your love was unrequited, you harbored hatred and killed him..."

"Shut up!"

It was Yaoyue, the Palace Mistress, who shouted in anger and attacked!

Xiaoyu was just trying to anger the Misty Flower Palace Mistress, but he provoked Yaoyue's fury.

In the past twenty to thirty years in the martial world, no one had dared to speak to Yaoyue like this, let alone that Xiaoyu, though he was just making things up, hit on her deepest hatred!

Originally, Yaoyue came to pay respects and congratulate.

Because she had also benefited greatly from Xiaoran's martial arts essentials. In terms of emotions, she was no different from ordinary women, but in martial arts, she was a grandmaster with a grandmaster's demeanor!

Having received benefits from Xiaoran, she naturally wanted to show her gratitude.

But she didn't expect to be provoked by Xiaoyu's words and attack rashly. She didn't want to kill Xiaoyu; if she did, all her efforts would be in vain!

So, her attack was just a light punishment.

But Xiaoyu, though her attack was fast, seemed to have anticipated it, and his body retreated abruptly, slippery like a fish!

"A grain of sand can also shine!"

Yaoyue snorted lightly. With her status, if her first attack missed, she wouldn't be embarrassed to attack again!

But halfway through her attack, a powerful suction force suddenly emerged around her, as if the world itself were collapsing towards her!

These martial artists had heard of techniques like controlling cranes and capturing dragons, but those techniques could only grab distant weapons. How could they compare to the Misty Flower Palace Mistress, who could influence the surrounding world!

Xiaoyu, caught off guard, was actually sucked towards her, about to fall into Yaoyue's hands!

At that moment, a strong whistling sound broke the air. Yaoyue's expression changed, and she flicked her finger, hitting the steel ball Xiaoran had shot out!

Boom...

The steel ball, hit by Yaoyue's finger, which was like white jade, immediately twisted wildly, cracking like an earthquake, and then exploded in the air!

Yaoyue frowned. She had intended to return the steel ball using the Misty Flower Jade Technique, but Xiaoran's finger technique was so skillful that the force couldn't be dissipated, causing the steel ball to shatter!

Xiaoran's heart trembled. This wasn't a pebble but a steel ball, and it was shattered by Yaoyue's single finger. Her strength was even more terrifying than he imagined!

Xiaoran came to Xiaoyu's rescue, using his finger technique to save him, then said to Yaoyue, "Great Palace Mistress Yaoyue, why bother with a mere child!

Today's guests are here to celebrate, I don't want any trouble!

You have already broken through the ninth level of the Bright Jade Art, pushing it to an unprecedented level.

You have evolved the Bright Jade Art's absorption and devouring power into a true qi field similar to the Heavenly Demon Technique, truly remarkable!

But I, Xiaoran, will not stand by and let my disciple be bullied!"

After saying this, he turned to Xiaoyu, "You must be angry that I didn't tell you that secret, but you actually set up a trap to make me act.

Though you risked your life to do it, this behavior cannot be encouraged. You will have to face the wall for seven days!"

Xiaoyu exclaimed, "Master, why won't you tell me!?"

"That's because you shouldn't be told!"

Hearing their conversation, Yaoyue and the others' faces changed. Yaoyue asked Xiaoran, "You know?

What do you know? How could you possibly know?

Even if you saw that my Bright Jade Art is complete, you couldn't possibly know that thing!"

Xiaoran smiled lightly, "You know what I know! You already believe it, otherwise you wouldn't ask me like this!"

Yaoyue's body surged with a mad killing intent, her long hair and clothes fluttering wildly. She said hatefully, "I can't let you live!

Originally, I was grateful to you because I broke through the Bright Jade Art thanks to your martial arts essentials.

But now that you know this, you must die!

I thought you were at least a fourth or fifth-level qi practitioner, but your finger technique just exposed your true strength!

Your true qi can't attach to objects or be released externally, it's just brute force.

You are only a second-level qi practitioner, yet you dare to meddle in my affairs!"

Xiaoran laughed, "In this world, I can only use the strength of a second-level qi practitioner, but realm is not equal to combat power. Let me give you a lesson!"

Xiaoran exaggerated a bit, adding a layer of mystery to himself, which would greatly benefit the development of the Dimensional Martial Arts Conference!

The advanced participants in the Dimensional Martial Arts Conference, all great experts, couldn't help but hear what was happening outside. Hearing the conflict between the Misty Flower Palace Mistress and Xiaoran, they all rushed out.

Such a great showdown was rare in the martial world!

Then they all heard Xiaoran admit that he was only a second-level qi practitioner, and they were all shocked.

Whether it was Xiaoran's teachings or his achievements in killing Wei Wuya and escaping the Evil Valley, people had always overestimated his strength!

But to think he was only a second-level qi practitioner, capable of unblocking the Ren and Du meridians, which made him a skilled martial artist in the martial world, but not an outstanding one!

Xiaoyu's face changed even more. If his master was really only a second-level qi practitioner, by provoking him to act, he might have endangered him!

On the side, Su Ying noticed another word, "this world?"

Could it be that Master isn't from this world!?

In ancient times, the belief in ghosts and gods was deeply rooted, and ancient people easily accepted such things!

She could think of it, and others could too. If this were true, it would make sense, otherwise, how could such a great expert like Xiaoran suddenly appear in the martial world?

Even if a bird flew by, it would leave a feather. Xiaoran's martial arts had no trace in history, and he possessed such advanced martial arts theory. It wasn't impossible to believe he came from the celestial realm!

Yaoyue, of course, could think of these things. As a martial grandmaster, she had no reverence for ghosts and gods. She said proudly, "Playing god, are you really not from this world?"

Xiaoran smiled, "You hit the nail on the head. There's no point in talking more. Come at me together!"

Xiaoran's fighting spirit burned fiercely. He truly wanted to see what the real Misty Flower Jade Technique and Bright Jade Art were like!

Outside the Dimensional Martial Arts Conference, it was deathly silent. A second-level qi practitioner dared to challenge two fourth-level qi practitioners, and they were great experts like the Misty Flower Palace mistresses!

Where did Xiaoran get such confidence!?

Could the difference between a true martial artist and those who have taken the wrong path in their training be so great!?

At that moment, a hoarse voice sounded, "Xiaoran, let this battle be mine!"

Yaoyue, without turning her head, said, "Yan Nantian? In today's martial world, only you could approach me within a hundred steps without being detected.

I didn't expect the rumors to be true, not only are you not dead, but your strength has greatly increased!"

Not far behind the two Misty Flower Palace mistresses, an odd figure appeared. He was extremely tall but had little flesh, looking like a skeleton, but anyone who had seen Yan Nantian would recognize him immediately!

This was Yan Nantian, the great hero who had been absent from the martial world for many years!

Yan Nantian, the Misty Flower Palace mistresses, and Xiaoran, the four greatest experts in the current martial world, had all gathered at the Dimensional Martial Arts Conference! (Please vote, all kinds of votes!)
