“Sure! I agree,” Taoist Reverend finally replied with his deep voice. His voice easily drowned out the noise all over the place.

“Taoist Reverend, you can’t fight. You can’t just fight any Tom, Dick, or Harry who challenges you.”

“If you do that, aren’t you telling the world that what he said was true? We, Quanzhen members, are never scared of death. If we were to die together, so be it.”

The disciples of Quanzhen were worried, and people of all sects of Taoism frowned. They didn’t want Taoist Reverend to fight, but they were afraid that their temple would be destroyed as well. After Li Zhu revealed the truth in the past, people’s image of the Taoist Reverend had been shaken.

They were the people who were most eager to know the truth and to investigate the truth. However, the time was not now. Taoist Reverend was a figure standing at the top of the demon descendants community. Such an existence, even if the evidence is confirmed, must be tested again and again.

Which country’s head of state could be easily impeached and removed from power by just a few words?

However, Taoist Reverend compromised. For the sake of the foundation of the Quanzhen Sect, he compromised with Li Zhu’s demands. Since the Taoist Reverend made a choice, they didn’t say much.

Li Peiyun grinned and suddenly jumped into the air. The light from the sword of qi even suppressed the sun in the sky.

A simple sword slipped out of Taoist Reverend’s sleeve. Just after the tip of the sword was revealed, it stopped. Instead, a tortoiseshell in the sleeve slipped out. The dark brown tortoiseshell was suspended in the middle of the air, which created a huge energy shield to protect Taoist Reverend and hundreds of audience around him.

The sword of qi kept the light shield deformed, and the shield was on the brink of breaking.

Taoist Reverend frowned. “Everyone, withdraw.”

The scene was in a moment of chaos, and the crowd rushed to escape from the audience.

Li Peiyun… How could he fight with the Taoist Reverend, who had already reached half-step Gokudo?!

Everyone was shocked by the result. Although they knew that Li Zhu had come here well prepared, the audience still felt inconceivable after seeing it with their own eyes. Li Peiyun’s accomplishments were not logical at all.

However, now was not the time to feel surprised. It was important to evacuate from the scene. The confrontation between the two sides can easily affect the surroundings. If they were to stay at the scene, they would only become innocent victims.

Li Xianyu almost peed his pants when he saw this scene. What the hell? Not bad, brother. You can already play around with Taoist Reverend. You’re the real cheater.

Suddenly there was the illusion that Li Peiyun was the main character and he was the villain. Every time he saw Li Peiyun, his accomplishments soared greater. Wasn’t that supposed to be the plot armor unique to the protagonist? Supporting actors had to go through step by step training, and only the protagonist’s abilities could soar like the rocket.

The shield was blown away and shattered like glass. The sword flew up into the sky, and the Taiji symbol appeared in the sky above the entire Conference venue.

Li Peiyun spun his body in the air and summoned his strength. His light sword collided with the Taoist Reverend’s sword!

Boom! The sound boomed as the Taiji symbol exploded together with the sword of qi in a blinding flash. The audience seemed to have experienced an earthquake as they squat down with their heads in their arms, screaming and crying, and the scene was a mess.

A moment ago, they were still happily watching the drama unfold. Now they just want to escape. No one wanted to be cannon fodder.

The flash blinded Li Xianyu and his eardrum seemed to have burst. It was hard for him to even breathe in that aftershock.

“Let’s go!” The black wings appeared behind Hua Yang. She first pulled up Li Xianyu, before bringing along his harem.

Hua Yang had the ability to fly because she was originally not a physical entity. She only gained her physical form by using Li Xianyu’s qi, but that did not change her ability to fly.

Li Xianyu was held by his mother in an embrace and is very comfortable. He looked around. All the demon descendants who can fly had taken flight and were watching the battle in the air. Those who couldn’t have all ran away into the distance.

Most of Baoze’s employees were in the mid-air. It was not that there were many people who could fly, but that most of those who can fly had some others hanging onto them.

He looked at his side again. There were many people hanging on Mother Hua Yang as well. The Thunderbolt Battle Lady was on her back, and Cuihua was on Thunderbolt Battle Lady’s back. Right now, Cuihua turned into her original form, which was more stable.

On Hua Yang’s left leg, You Mengyu dangled, and her right leg was tightly clenched onto by Xia Xiaoxue.

“Mother Hua Yang… It must have been hard for you.” Li Xianyu’s lips twitched.

Hua Yang had no choice.

At times like this, the ability to fly by controlling other objects, such as the skills possessed by the Chen Family, displayed its full advantage.

“Great-Grandma is still down there!” Li Xianyu said.

Great-Grandma was the only bossy one who didn’t even flinch. She continued to enjoy the show. As the shockwaves dissipated a few feet away from her.

At this time, the force of the Unparalleled War Spirit truly stood out.

Li Xianyu glanced around. He saw Aoki Yui, who met-up with the Aoki family. He also saw Victoria and the others of the Association of Superpowered Beings. He saw Miyamoto Hideki, who was excited to watch the fight. Then, he saw Dan Chenzi and Jie Se standing on a floating sword together. He also saw people from big families, independent demon descendants not belonging to any factions, and foreign friends.

“Eh, isn’t that the quarterfinal guy from Canada, was he injured? Why is he covering his face? ” Li Xianyu curiously muttered.

Zhao Ding stood alone in the distance, looking very sad and helpless, weeping behind his face. It’s my turn, but who still remembers my round, who still remembers me? I just wanted to have a good fight with Jie Se. Lady Luck didn’t care for me. She raised her skirt to flirt with me on purpose. Then she spat on my face and said, “What an ugly toad, why don’t you look in the mirror?”

….

Li Peiyun lightly touched in between his forehead. Suddenly, he seemed to throw something out from his eyebrow.

Taoist Reverend held the sword in one hand, formed a hand seal with the other, and shouted, “Jin!”

Taoist Kujikiri, Jin Cut!

The Kujikiri was created by Taoism, but now many people regard the Nine Cuts as the unique skill of Buddhism. There was indeed such a technique in Buddhism. In the thousands of years of hostile and friendly exchanges, Taoism and Buddhism had influenced each other and shared some of their skills with each other.

Two huge mental forces collided in the middle of the air, and both of them disintegrated, forming a terrible mental storm.

The demon descendants who were watching the battle in the air fell to the ground as if they were stunned birds. Those watching the fight from the ground all held their heads in pain.

“Sword of Will…” Hua Yang propped up the mental barrier and blocked the violent mental energy for those hanging on her body. She was surprised and said, “Dan Chenzi also learned this.”

“Yes, that’s why I gave up. There’s no need to fight him to the end. I thought you would fight with Elder Huayu. Now that I think about it, it wasn’t worth forfeiting the match,” Li Xianyu said.

It was hard to believe that Dan Chenzi could also use the Sword of Will. When Li Xianyu saw it, his jaw almost fell out of place and almost thought that Dan Chenzi had something to do with Demonic Priest.

However, it seemed that Dan Chenzi could only execute the Sword of Will, not the other two techniques. Demonic Priest probably didn’t teach the Tri-Elements Sword Technique only to Second Child. It was not incomprehensible that there was a guy who could master one of the three sword techniques occasionally.

Li Peiyun’s face turned white and he was dizzy and nauseous. He could not match the Taoist Reverend in the mental confrontation. Even though he had achieved a preliminary mastery over the Tri-Elements Sword Technique, he overestimated himself about fighting the current Taoist Reverend in a competition of mental strength.

He was just a half-step Gokudo Path. His great-granddad could transfer him qi, but mental power was different and wasn’t something that could be just transferred.

Li Peiyun suppressed the negative effects of the mental concussion, as he withdrew his mental energy and turned more passive. Li Peiyun shook his hand, and the sword of qi retracted into his body. Then, his body became translucent, then disappeared. His aura completely vanished.

Taoist Reverend frowned and formed another Kujikiri with his left hand while holding his sword with his right hand.

Li Peiyun seemed to have really disappeared. There was only Taoist Reverend left on the stage. After a few moments, the Taoist priest turned sideways without any sign. The white sword light slid past his body and cut off his sleeve.

The sword of qi swept across again, and the Taoist priest pushed out his right arm. In the explosion with light and flames, the strength within the sword of qi blew the Taoist Reverend away.

Li Peiyun stomped onto the cracking ground, and his bones cracked in force. The strength was transferred to his fist as he launched a punch at Taoist Reverend’s chest.

The light shield of the tortoiseshell rose again. It deformed in the great force of the fist and exploded.

Bang!

With just one punch to the chest, the Taoist Reverend was hammered into the audience stand. The audience stand, made of normal concrete, collapsed right away in a cloud of dust.

“You are the first one to force me to use my superpower since I had gained my preliminary mastery over the Tri-Elements Sword Technique. As expected of the Taoist Reverend, my fist is really painful.” Li Peiyun grinned. Even Li Xianyu, that little guy from Shanghai, did not manage to force out any superpower from me.

Watching the battle, the audience was in an uproar. How could Taoist Reverend be defeated by Li Peiyun?

“This guy… his progress is too fast,” Jie Se spoke with a heavy voice.

“Can’t he see that his current cultivation has no substance, and his real combat power is not much different from ours?” Dan Chenzi didn’t care. There seemed to be nothing in the world that could make him nervous and scared. Even if Taoist Reverend was beaten, his expression would still be plain.

“But he understood about the Half-Step Gokudo path earlier than us, which means that he will step into this state earlier than us too,” Jie Se stated.

“What are you anxious about? It’s Li Xianyu who has to worry,” Dan Chenzi said with a smile. “Look at him, his face is white.”

Jie Se turned and gazed at a certain someone whose face was twitching while cuddling inside Elder Hua Yang’s embrace. He turned back and looked at Dan Chenzi.

In fact, even though Dan Chenzi seemed pretty indifferent on the surface, deep down he was pretty scheming.

I didn’t expect you to be like this, Dan Chenzi.

…

At the foot of Mount Emei, in a certain patch of the dense forest.

The man with narrow eyes took back his gaze, looked at the big man who was dressed in the aura isolation robe, shivering and squatting on the ground, and smiled. “He’s gone.”

Hearing this, God of War was relieved, but still did not dare to take off his robe. He gnashed his teeth. “If I knew, I would not have come.”

The man with narrow eyes said helplessly, “Do you really need to be so scared of him? At any rate, Li Peiyun had already reached the Half-Step Gokudo Path.”
