” Alright, Speak, Why did you come here?” Li Ming looked at Jun Tianyun and asked with a placid voice. But Jun Tianyun could feel her tone turned much softer than before.
” Answering Elder Li… I had some work here.” Jun Tianyun smiled. ” You know Jun Clan’s relationship with the Black Ghost Sect, right?”
” Those damned bastards.” Li Ming snorted. ” If we had the power, we would have eradicated long ago. Unfortunately…We can’t do that.”
” I don’t think you should worry about the Black Ghost Sect anymore.”
” Huh? What do you mean?” Li Ming glanced at Jun Tianyun.
” Nothing.” Jun Tianyun chuckled. ” Besides, I heard there is a big event in Great Emerald Mountain. I am eager to watch the yearly battle tournament of Great Emerald Mountain.”
” Hmph! It’s nothing more than a bunch of arrogant brats showing off their stunts.” Hua Wan’er snorted.
” Well? Are you saying you are older, Miss Hua?” Jun Tianyun raised his eyebrows. ” Wh-Who said that!?” Hua Wan’er blushed. ” I meant, I am much more mentally matured than them!”
” Besides, Stop calling me Miss Hua. It sounds so distant.” Hua Wan’er blushed. ” You can call me Wan’er.”
” Ahem…”
The dry cough of Li Ming made Hua Wan’er awkward. ” Well, I wonder if you want to join the tournament?”
” Me?” Jun Tianyun blinked. ” But I am an outsider.”
You helped Hua Wan’er a lot last time, even saving her life.” Li Ming spoke in a calm voice. ” Besides, the Dragon Saliva and Ten thousand-year-old Earth Milk are precious treasures of heaven and earth which you gave us.”
” Therefore, You aren’t an outsider here. Feel free here.” ” Haha, Thank you, Elder Li, For your consideration.” Jun Tianyun smiled lightly. ” However, I think it would be pretty unfair if I were to participate in the tournament.”
” Huh? Are you that confident?” Li Ming’s eyes narrowed as a powerful pressure pressure erupted from her body and weighed down on Jun Tianyun.
However, Jun Tianyun stood nonchalantly, as if he didn’t feel anything. Li Ming was shocked inwardly when she saw Jun Tianyun’s expression. ‘ This brat…He isn’t ordinary at all.’ Li Ming mumbled in her heart. She didn’t feel a trace of internal energy in Jun Tianyun’s body. But her years of experience in jianghu told her that Jun Tianyun is like a primordial fiend hiding in a mortal human’s body.
‘ Strange, How can a young man like him emit such pressure? I guess…Jun Family is simply filled with monsters.’
” Wan’er, you should go and prepare. I shall ask some servants to escort Jun Tianyun around the sect.”
” No need for that, Elder Li.” Jun Tianyun shook his head. ” I would rather explore on my own.”
” Very well. It’s not like you are a kid who would get lost.” Li Ming nodded. ” Just be careful and don’t go where you shouldn’t go.”
” Yes, Elder Li.”
Jun Tianyun cupped his fist and left. Hua Wan’er glanced at Li Ming. ” Master, Why did you send him away?”
” Girl, How can I not see how you head over heels for him.” Li Ming sighed. ” However, you better weigh all your pros and cons before making a decision.”
” What do you mean by that, Master?”
” Wu Chang is coming to propose to you, you know?” Li Ming glanced at Hua Wan’er. ” Sect Master wishes to make the bond between Great Emerald Mountain and Hundred Jade Pillar School stronger through the marriage.”
“Besides, Tianhai Group is pretty powerful in the outside world…”
” Master! Did I not tell you that I have no interest in marriage?” Hua Wan’er snorted. ” Besides, It’s like I am getting forced to marry him. I don’t want to marry someone who is weaker than me.”
Li Ming sighed. ” I understand, Hua Wan’er. I also don’t want to do that. But, the Azure Sky Grave is about to open. If Great Emerald Mountain and Hundred Jade Pillar School collaborate, we can harvest a lot of resources.”
” But…” She looked at Hua Wan’er. ” I won’t force you. After all, I am not like other elders. Whatever your decision shall be, I shall respect it.”
” After all, You are mine, Li Ming’s disciple.”
Hua Wan’er heart turned warm when she heard that. ” Thank you, Master. Disciple understands your words.”
” Well, Then do your best and win this competition.” Li Ming smiled.

” Hmm, The Great Emerald Sect is larger than the Qingyun Mountain Sect. However, the formations used here were somewhat less complex than Qinyun Mountain Sect’s formations.” Jun Tianyun chuckled.
However, as he was enjoying the scenery, he was stopped by a group of people. Precisely, it was a young man with two buffed bodyguards standing behind him.
” Are you the one who tried to woo Hua Wan’er?”
Jun Tianyun stopped his steps as he looked at that young man. Wearing expensive clothes, he looked like he came from abroad. But Jun Tianyun remained silent as he gazed at him. ” What is it, you bastard? Can’t you hear? Our young master is asking you a question!” The bodyguard behind the young man snorted.
” I apologize.” Jun Tianyun nodded. ” I quite don’t understand the barkings of a dog.”
” Yo-You! Bastard! Do you know who am I?” The young man’s face turned red with anger as he pointed at Jun Tianyun.
” Wu Chang, Heir of Tianhai group and young master of Hundred Jade Pillar School.” Jun Tianyun spoke in a candid voice.
” Yo-You know me?” Wu Chang was dumbfounded. ” Fuck! And you dare to talk to me like that?”
” Keke, Brat, Since you know our young master’s identity, better kneel and apologize.” One of the bodyguards cackled. ” Our young master’s mood is pretty good today. He might spare you.”
” Well, I said I know your identity.” Jun Tianyun snickered. ” I never said I care about it. Tianhai Group and Hundred Jade Pillars School? I don’t care about ants like those.”
Wu Chang and his bodyguards dumbfounded when they heard Jun Tianyun’s tone. ” Bastard! You dare!!”
” What is happening here?”
Suddenly, Wu Chang and his bodyguards stopped as they saw an old man passing by. He wore the uniform of Great Mystic Mountain’s elder.
” I hope everyone will stay amicable, as today is an auspicious day.” The elder smiled.
” Yes, Elder.” Wu Chang cupped his fist and nodded Jun Tianyun only shrugged as he walked away. But he could feel Wu Chang’s venomous gaze from miles away.
‘ Brat, You better not fall in my hands.’ Jun Tianyun mumbled inwardly. But he chuckled when he thought about that. Because he knew, Wu Chang would definitely fuck up.
Soon, the martial arts tournament started as people gathered around the arena.
” Greetings, Everyone. Today, Is the auspicious day of our sect founding. So, on this day, our annual martial arts tournament is conducted.”
” After preliminary examination, more than 50 top martial artists of the younger generation have been selected for the main round.”
” Please, Applause for our young rising stars!”
Jun Tianyun sat in the audience seat as he saw all the participants. There are four arenas, and after drawing lots, the fight began.
” Interesting. I finally got the chance to see the power of the ancient martial arts heritage of Xia Country.” Jun Tianyun focused on each fight with his Eyes of Fortune.
He could see various distinct martial arts techniques of various sects and ancient families. For example, The Golden Shaolin Temple’s monks had a more robust physical body and their martial arts were of pure yang attribute. Meanwhile, The Wudang Sword Mountain and Southern Edge Sect are proficient in sword and saber arts.
Then, there are also Maoshan Mountain’s spirit techniques and Miao Mountain Tribe’s poison gu art.
So many exotic techniques made Jun Tianyun’s eyes dazzle with excitement.
He could see Wu Chang easily winning rounds after rounds with ease. However, looking deeply at him, Jun Tianyun chuckled.
“Fucking cheat. This bastard is getting itchy to get beaten up.”
Hua Wan’er was no pushover either. Her body was agile and fast. With her sharp and precise movements, she easily defeated many opponents. However, rather than two of them Jun Tianyun was more interested in the young man who is from the Miao Mountain Tribe. His poison art is simply deadly and exquisite.
If it was a life-and-death battle, that young man probably would have killed many of the participants.
‘ Hmm, Since Miao Mountain Tribe is so proficient in poison arts, they must have some information about the poison I got infected with during my childhood.’
‘ Although the Netherworld Cult poisoned me, that envoy bitch only knew the name of the poison. It’s called Yama Dark Poison.’ Jun Tianyun rubbed his chin.
” Alright, Fellow brothers and sisters. This match is going to be pretty interesting.” The announcer’s voice made everyone cheer. ” Hua Wan’er of Great Emerald Mountain with Wu Chang of Hundred Jade Pillar School.”
Wu Chang walked on the stage with a prideful face. When he looked at Hua Wan’er, he couldn’t help but salivate for her beauty.
” Miss Hua, Before the batter starts, I have something to say.” Wu Chang glanced at Hua Wan’er.
” Will you marry me?”
