Chapter 195
“I admit defeat!!! I admit defeat…” Luo Yan cried out in pain. If Xiao Yuelan stepped on him again, he would definitely die.
Elder Luo’s gaze could kill, glaring at Xiao Yue Lan.
After the flag array was withdrawn, an elder from Eastern Palace hastily entered the fighting arena and stood in front of Xiao Yuelan. This elder was the third elder of the Eastern Palace. Shui Yi Hui, Qin Yun remembered him.
“Old Luo, save your grandson first!” Shui Yi Hui said while protecting Xiao Yue Lan.
Elder Luo gave an angry humph and quickly went to check on Luo Yan’s injuries. With an ugly expression, he said coldly, “internal force and Martial Spirit were both severely damaged, almost broken!”
If Xiao Yuelan were to kick again, even if he didn’t die, he would still be crippled.
Elder Luo was a martial arts expert after all, he could stabilize Luo Yan’s injuries in time.
“Did he not plan on crippling me just now? Why am I not allowed to hit him like this? Then what’s the point of this competition?”
Xiao Yuelan was not afraid in the slightest and ridiculed Elder Luo: “This guy, he doesn’t have any ability, but he’s rather good at pretending and he’s always acting like he’s the best in the world.”
Elder Luo instantly flew into a rage, angrily yelling: “Stupid girl, shut up!”
Xiao Yanglong was also very angry but he did not say much. After all, Xiao Yuelan was Qin Yun’s wife and Qin Long was watching him from the side.
“Old Luo, Xiao Yue Lan has a cultivation base at the ninth level Martial Body. Your grandson is indeed far inferior to her! She showed mercy just now. Otherwise, your grandson would have died a long time ago.” Shui Yi Hui smiled.
Xiao Yuelan had actually already stepped into the ninth level Martial Body realm!
Everyone was quietly gasping for breath. Xiao Yuelan was only seventeen or eighteen years old and was already at the ninth level Martial Body realm. Her talent was much more terrifying than Yang Shiyue’s. She might step into the Martial Dao Realm in a year or two.
A twenty year old martial dao practitioner, just thinking about it was terrifying!
Qin Yun looked at Xiao Yuelan in disbelief. He never expected her to hide it so well. He was also worried that he would be completely suppressed by her in the future.
Xiao Yanglong also had an incredulous expression as he stared at Xiao Yuelan with wide eyes. He could not help but break out in a cold sweat! This was because Xiao Yuelan’s cultivation was about to catch up to him; at that time, she would definitely settle the score.
“Who else from your Blue Spirit Star Palace wants to challenge me? If you defeat me, you can marry me. If I don’t win, I will kill myself.”
Xiao Yuelan’s ice-cold eyes were filled with killing intent and arrogance as they swept over the young men in blue robes.
Xiao Yuelan had already escaped from the Tian Xiao Empire and the elders of the Eastern Palace could ignore Xiao Yanglong and the others and protect her. Thus, the other Star Palaces could not do much now.
The other powers were secretly glad that they didn’t suffer any losses.
As for Elder Luo from the Western Palace, he suffered a huge loss. First, he lost 450 million crystal coins to Qin Yun, then he suffered a heavy injury to his grandson. This caused the other three Star Palaces to secretly gloat over his misfortune.
Tian Xuan Martial Academy’s Guo Cheng walked out and said, “Since the marriage between Qin Yun and Xiao Yuelan has been decided, let’s talk about something else!”
“Although it was an accident that Qin Yun was cast into the forbidden zone, he has still been with the Soul Refining Demon for many days. He might have been recognized by the Soul Refining Demon and obtain the Soul Refining Art! That is a very vicious demonic art!”
Emperor Tian Qi also hurriedly said, “Back then, this Soul Refining Demon almost caused the destruction of our Qi Empire. It was very scary! We may be at the edge of the Martial Desolate Land but we’re all decent martial artists. Let’s take advantage of the fact that Blue Spirit Star Palace is here and settle this matter.”
“What do you mean? Are you saying that my son cultivates an evil technique?” Qin Long sneered.
“He’s just suspicious!” Emperor Tianqi was also a bit afraid of Qin Long because he had the Dragon King Spear in his hand. That is a very terrifying Xuan Artifact.
Qin Long shouted, “Then we’ll wait for you to confirm, find the evidence and come out to talk about this. Otherwise, don’t stay here and fart!”
Shui Yi Hui said, “I have long heard of the techniques to refine the soul as well! From the legends, this was indeed a very terrifying demonic technique but it was not something that could be mastered in a short period of time. Furthermore, in order to cultivate such an evil art, one must possess a strong Martial Spirit. Furthermore, Qin Yun does not have a Martial Spirit or inner yuan energy at the moment, so everyone need not worry too much about this matter.”
Qin Yun looked coldly at Guo Cheng. This vice principal of the Tian Xuan Martial School had targeted him many times!
Xiao Yuelan also looked at Guo Cheng with killing intent, causing Guo Cheng to feel incomparably furious in his heart. He was of the Martial Dao Realm and moreover, was the vice principal of a Xuan Level Martial Arts Academy.
With Qin Long here, he could not do anything to Qin Yun without solid evidence.
“Qin Yun, are you willing to come to our Blue Spirit Northern Palace? I can give you very generous terms! ”
An old man from the Northern Palace walked over with a smile. “You just entered the Star Xuan Wu Academy not long ago, right? You don’t have to stay in there anymore, you can come straight to the Northern Palace to cultivate.”
Although the Blue Spirit Nangong had been on good terms with the Ye family, they also valued Qin Yun’s Heavenly Lion totem very highly, an old woman came over and said, “Qin Yun, the conditions of our Nangong family will definitely be better than those of the Northern Palace.”
The Western Palace wanted to kill him too and their conflict with Qin Yun was too great. No matter what, Qin Yun would not join them.
Elder Luo from the Western Palace sneered: “You guys are in such a hurry to state your conditions, are you sure that his Heavenly Lion Totem is alive? What if it is dead? It’ll be too late for all of you to regret it!”
He looked at Qin Yun with eyes filled with disgust. “Although he has comprehended a totem martial art from it, that does not mean that the Heavenly Lion Totem is alive, it still needs to be inspected.”
The old lady from Nangong quickly nodded and said, “That’s right, let’s check first!”
Shui Yi Hui said to Qin Yun, “The most important part of the totem inheritance is the totem soul within it. If you do not have the totem soul, then this totem is dead. This is not a good thing. It will greatly affect your future! For example, it will devour your soul force, making it hard for your soul to improve.”
Elder Luo said, “If it is a Dead Totem, you will constantly lose control of this arm. You might become a soulless madman because of this Dead Totem.”
“How do we check?” Qin Yun was also alarmed by Elder Luo’s words. He hurriedly asked Shui Yihui.
“Very simple, use the Soul Assessing Stone!” Shui Yi Hui took out an octagonal, transparent stone and placed it on Qin Yun’s shoulder. He said, “If you have a totem soul within your Celestial Lion totem, the stone will emit light.”
After sticking the octagonal crystal onto it for a long time, there was no reaction.
Everyone stared at the stone and saw no reaction. At the same time, they were secretly astonished and delighted. That was because the Heavenly Lion totem that Qin Yun possessed was not alive!
“No response! Hahaha, it’s dead!” Elder Luo said happily.
The old woman from before hurriedly took out an octagonal Soul Assessing Stone and stuck it onto the Heavenly Lion totem on Qin Yun’s arm. However, it remained unresponsive.
Soon after, the old man from the Northern Palace also took out the Soul Assessing Stone to test it out. The results were the same.
“The Heavenly Lion Totem is dead.” Shui Yi Hui frowned.
“This… Qin Yun, you should cultivate in the Star Xuan Wu Academy first! If you wish to enter our Nangong, you must pass the examination.” the old woman said. Her tone turned colder as she distanced herself from Qin Yun.
“Qin Yun, what a pity. Take care of yourself.” After the old man from the Northern Palace finished speaking, he slipped into the crowd.
Just a moment ago, he had been so cordial. Yet, in the blink of an eye, he had turned cold. It made Qin Yun feel extremely unhappy.
Everyone felt that this was normal. The dead Heavenly Lion Totem was not of much value and would cause Qin Yun to go crazy. That was why Nangong and the elders of the Northern Palace immediately turned hostile.
“Qin Yun, you can come to our Eastern Palace. However, I can’t give you any good conditions.” Shui Yi Hui said.
Qin Yun asked, “Elder Shui, I heard that your Eastern Palace has an inscription Gate, right? Can I enter the Inscription Gate?”
Hearing the words of the Inscription Gate, Shui Yi Hui’s complexion changed. The other people from Blue Spirit Star Palace were also slightly surprised.
Xiao Yuelan said anxiously, “Qin Yun, do you want me to become a widow? You definitely can’t go to the Inscription Gate, it’s too dangerous!”
Yang Shiyue also said: “The Eastern Palace’s Inscription Gate is known as the Genius Hell, whoever goes dies. Although there are many powerful inscriptions in the gate, over the years, no one has passed the test!”
Shui Yi Hui sighed and said, “To be honest, there’s no one in the East Palace’s inscription sect anymore. There’s only an outer elder who’s responsible for cleaning the gate. If you want to enter the Inscription Gate, that’s not something I can decide. Even if you can pass the assessment and enter the Inscription Gate, no one can guide you in cultivation because if you can pass the assessment, you are the only disciple and master of the inscription sect and also the only master of the Inscription Gate!”
Elder Luo sneered, “The leader of the Inscription Sect has a status similar to that of the leaders of the four palaces. For this reason, many geniuses have gone forward to take the test but after entering the gate, they have never come out.”
“Qin Yun, stop thinking about this matter. Be honest and come to the East Palace. I guarantee that no one in the East Palace will dare bully you!” Xiao Yuelan looked sternly at Qin Yun.
Everyone in the hall wanted to laugh. Qin Yun, as a man, was actually protected by his wife.
Qin Yun forced a smile and said, “About this…I intend to stay at the Star Xuan Wu Academy first! My current situation is rather complicated, so I plan to first learn the essence of Mental Energy cultivation from Teacher Du Gui.”
Most of all, he didn’t want go to the Eastern Palace to be a disciple to be watched by Xiao Yuelan constantly, it wasn’t a good thing. As a man, he couldn’t let others feel that he was very afraid of his wife and also needed to be protected by her.
Shui Yi Hui said, “Qin Yun, you had best solve the problem with the Heavenly Lion Totem before you step into the Martial Dao Realm! The Martial Dao Realm cultivators focus on the soul. At that time, your Heavenly Lion Totem will have a great impact on you.”
Xiao Yuelan suddenly said, “Qin Yun, bring me to a secret location. I’ll tell you the secret of the Immortal Graveyard Diagram!”
“Yue Lan, you…” Xiao Yanglong was extremely anxious but there was nothing he could do. He had failed to reap any benefits from Xiao Yuelan marrying Qin Yun.
If he married her to the Blue Spirit Star Palace, he would be able to obtain generous rewards. He would no longer have to worry about the cultivation resources in the future.
The higher his cultivation, the more cultivation resources he would need. He was a person who urgently needed to make good progress, so he did not care about anything else in order to obtain resources.
After he took control of the Tian Xiao Empire, he took away all the crystal coins in the treasury and used them for his own cultivation.
