Chapter 274: The people of the Transcendent Spiritual Sect, the decisive battle is coming

Cui Huayu leaned in the arms of the maid, looking weak and frail, with a sickly blush appearing occasionally on her pale face. She patted Emperor Zheng's shoulder with one hand.

"What's going on with this Tianjiao Battle? I heard about it when I was playing in Luozhou, so I came here to join in the fun."

"It's like this..."

Emperor Zheng hurriedly told the whole story in detail.

Including Xu Yan's sudden rise, the destruction of the Dai family, the Duanyu Divine Sect, and the sudden emergence of a mysterious force of independent cultivators.

"Master Cui, do you want to intervene and suppress the independent cultivators?"

Emperor Zheng finally asked.

"This Xu Yan is quite interesting. As for the independent cultivator forces, they can't accomplish anything big, so they can just bully the Jade God Sect, a piece of crap.

“I have always believed that a useless spiritual sect like the Jade God Sect should not be called a spiritual sect.

“Forget it, the rules of the Spirit Realm have already been set, there’s no point in changing them, and I don’t have the time or mood for that.

"That kid Lu Xinting is still quite capable. Let's see if he will be beaten to death this time. If he is, it will be bad for the Chi Ming Sect."

Cui Huayu looked like he was enjoying the fun.

Emperor Zheng also breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. The State of Zheng has always maintained a position of not interfering in martial arts disputes, and would not get involved no matter how the fight unfolded.

Just wait for the orders of Chaoran Lingzong.

And Chaoran Lingzong would not issue an order to let Zheng State participate in the dispute.

What he feared most was Cui Huayu, this moody person. If he got hot-headed and asked Zheng Guo to take action, that would be a bit uncomfortable.

Zheng State did not dare to disobey, after all, this was the order of Chaoran Lingzong.

"Old Zheng, what do you think are Xu Yan's chances of winning?"

Cui Huayu asked.

Emperor Zheng was confused and didn't know what Cui Huayu meant. Did he hope Xu Yan would win or lose?

"Based on my judgment, Xu Yan's strength is not bad either. Let's call it a fifty-fifty match."

He said after a moment's hesitation.

“It’s a bit low.”

Cui Huayu stroked his chin, turned around and looked at a maid beside him, and said, "Where's the sword? Take it out."

"Yes, Master!"

The maid took out a sword from her storage bag.

Cui Huayu threw the sword to Zheng Huang and said, "This is a top-grade spiritual weapon. Xu Yan is just a casual cultivator and may not have a good sword. He will be at a disadvantage against Lu Xinting.

"Give him this sword and ask him to do his best to kill Lu Xinting."

Emperor Zheng was a little confused. That was not right. Cui Huayu was the true disciple of Lingzong, and one of the true disciples of Chaoran Lingzong's Yuling Mansion. He should stand on Lu Xinting's side.

After all, he belongs to the Lingzong camp.

Why did they support Xu Yan, a casual cultivator? His behavior was really unpredictable!

"Yes, yes, I will have someone deliver the sword!"

Emperor Zheng hurriedly agreed.

"Um!"

Cui Huayu nodded, a smile on her face, "This spiritual realm is not lively enough. If Lu Xinting is killed by a random cultivator, it should be more lively, right? "Hey, I just like to join in the fun!"

Cui Huayu's face was full of anticipation.

"Master Cui, if you have no other instructions, I will make arrangements right away and find a way to send the sword to Xu Yan."

Emperor Zheng was getting anxious and asked.

"Well, go ahead!"

Cui Huayu waved her hand.

Emperor Zheng was as if he had been pardoned. He bowed in haste and left. He then ordered his son to go and serve Cui Huayu well. His son's face turned green.

If you are not careful while serving Mr. Cui, your life may be in danger!

"Remember, if you serve well and gain the favor of Master Cui, you should understand the benefits. Although the risks are great, the rewards are also great!"

Emperor Zheng said seriously.

"Yes, Father!"

He gritted his teeth, bowed and went into his father's bedroom to serve Cui Huayu.

…

The outside world was in an uproar because of the battle between the geniuses, and countless warriors were ready to watch this battle.

As for the outcome, influenced by the inherent concept, most people believed that Lu Xinting would win and Xu Yan would lose! However, outside the capital of Zheng State, in a manor that no one had discovered, there was no tense atmosphere at all.

Xu Yan was comprehending and practicing martial arts as usual.

Su Lingxiu is making elixir.

Meng Chong and Fang Hao were discussing the matter of refining the sword.

No one took the battle of Tianjiao seriously, as Lu Xinting was already a dying man.

“Junior brother, I have to refine a sword that can be large or small. You know, if I use the Six-foot Golden Body, and the sword doesn’t change accordingly, I will have no sword to use.

"If you have a knife in your hand and practice swordsmanship, your strength will be stronger."

Meng Chong spoke up.

"Second Brother, I understand your request. It's just a simple size. This is easy, but it's obviously not suitable for Second Brother.

"I'll think about how to make a stronger sword instead of just a sword that can simply change size."

Fang Hao nodded.

"Then I'll trouble you, Junior Brother."

Meng Chong nodded. The knife was of no use as it only changed in size.

"Tomorrow is the day of the decisive battle, Senior Brother, how many swords do you think it will take to kill Lu Xinting?"

That night, the four brothers and sisters gathered together, and Su Lingxiu asked curiously.

"I didn't see anyone, so I don't know."

Xu Yan shook his head.

Lu Xinting is only at the peak of the Great Celestial Being realm. In terms of realm, he is one realm higher than him.

He is another famous genius from the Spirit Realm and a true disciple of the Red Ming Sect. His strength must be quite good. Xu Yan is confident that he can defeat him. As for how many strikes it will take, he is unable to make a judgment since he has not seen him yet.

If Lu Xinting was a celestial being who refined his spirit, this battle would probably be even more intense. Xu Yan would not take a mere celestial being, even if he was a genius in the spiritual realm or a disciple of a top spiritual sect, seriously.

"I wonder how many spiritual masters there will be. I'm afraid the spiritual masters of Yuzhou and the spiritual masters of the noble families are all eyeing us covetously, right?"

Fang Hao sneered.

"It's a small matter. He's just in the early stage of Spirit Refining. If we join forces, we can kill three or four of them."

Meng Chong said indifferently.

With his current strength, it is not difficult for him to kill ordinary warriors in the early stage of the Divine Refining Realm.

His Immortal Golden Body is so powerful that even a warrior in the early stage of refining the spirit cannot hurt him at all.

Fang Hao nodded.

The next day, the battle of Tianjiao will be held today.

Xu Yan and his companions were just about to set off when Yu Gao and Wen Yong came in a hurry.

"What happened?"

Fang Hao looked at the two of them with excited expressions and couldn't help but frown and asked.

"Emperor Zheng asked someone to find one of our bases and entrusted us to deliver something to Brother Xu."

Wen Yong said solemnly.

It was not surprising that Emperor Zheng knew about the base of the Wanshi Alliance in the capital of Zheng State. However, it was unexpected that the other party actually entrusted Xu Yan to deliver something.

Could it be that the Zheng royal family wants to participate in this battle of Tianjiao? "What is that?"

Xu Yan said in surprise.

Yu Gao took down a box and opened it, revealing a sword inside.

He looked strange and said, "Emperor Zheng sent a message saying that a nobleman gave a sword to Master Xu... and also told Master Xu to kill Lu Xinting!"

Xu Yan and the others were all stunned. What did that mean? Kill Lu Xinting? Was he afraid that Xu Yan would suffer a loss in weapons, so he deliberately sent a sword to help Xu Yan? "Does Emperor Zheng have a grudge against Lu Xinting? Or, does he have a grudge against the Chi Ming Sect?"

Meng Chong was very surprised.

"It's the nobleman mentioned by Emperor Zheng. He didn't mention his identity..."

Yu Gao said in a deep voice.

"The so-called noble person may just be an excuse. Is he actually Emperor Zheng himself?"

Fang Hao guessed.

“That’s possible!”

Yu Gao nodded.

Xu Yan raised his hand and the sword in the box flew out.

"A top-grade spiritual weapon, you are quite generous in spending."

Fang Hao was even more surprised when he saw it.

Xu Yan took a look and threw the sword back into the box, saying, "Send it back. We don't need his spiritual weapon. Lu Xinting is courting death by challenging me. I will help him."

If I accept this spiritual weapon, wouldn't that mean I owe him a favor? "Okay!"

Yu Gao nodded and closed the box.

At this moment, Shen Haizhou also came.

Of course, he would not appear with Xu Yan and others. After all, his collusion with Xu Yan and others could not be known to others, otherwise he would be uncomfortable.

"Brother Shen, you've come just in time. Does Emperor Zheng have any grudge against Lu Xinting or the Chi Ming Sect?"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Xu Yan asked.

Shen Haizhou, the eldest son of the Lingzong family, naturally knew more about the affairs of the family.

"Why do you say that?"

Shen Haizhou asked doubtfully.

Xu Yan pointed to the box in Yu Gao's hand and explained the situation.

When Shen Haizhou heard this, his expression suddenly changed.

"My dear? This is... someone from the Chaoran Spiritual Sect has come to Yuzhou!"

"Why are you so sure that someone from the Transcendent Spiritual Sect will appear?"

Xu Yan said doubtfully.

Shen Haizhou took a deep breath and said, "Zheng State has a special status and is directly governed by the Chaoran Spiritual Sect. It only obeys the Chaoran Spiritual Sect. The only person who can be called a noble by the Emperor of Zheng is someone from the Chaoran Spiritual Sect!"

Xu Yan and his companions suddenly understood.

"I see. I am just a member of the Chaoran Ling Sect. Why did you give me a sword and ask me to kill Lu Xinting?"

Xu Yan became even more confused.

If the people of Chaoran Lingzong had a grudge against Chimingzong or Lu Xinting, they could just take action directly. Why would they need to use someone else's hands? Shen Haizhou was also puzzled. Chaoran Lingzong was high above, the real ruler of the spiritual realm. Although Chimingzong was a top-level spiritual sect, it was not worth mentioning compared to Chaoran Lingzong.

"I don't understand either, but I can be sure that someone from the Transcendent Spiritual Sect must have appeared."

Shen Haizhou said solemnly.

"Don't dwell on it. Send the sword back."

Xu Yan shook his head.

So what if he is a transcendent spiritual sect? He seems to be extremely powerful and high above everyone else, but compared to his master, he is nothing but trash. In terms of background, he is the strongest.

Shen Haizhou revealed all the intelligence he had obtained to Xu Yan and others, including the spirit refiner of the Lingzong family, and planned to surround and kill Meng Chong and others after he showed up.

After delivering the information, Shen Haizhou left in a hurry.

"Oh, surround and kill me?"

Meng Chong sneered.

"Let's go, the battle of the geniuses is about to begin!"

Xu Yan said calmly.

This battle was the beginning of Xu Yan's fame in the Spirit Realm after he entered the Spirit Realm.

Li Xuan sat on the back of the red cat. Shi Er, Zhou Ying and Meng Shushu were finally allowed to sit on the back of the red cat as well.

Xu Yan was in front, Su Lingxiu sat next to Li Xuan making tea, Meng Chong and Fang Hao followed closely behind Xu Yan, and the group did not hide their tracks at all and went straight to the place where the geniuses would fight.

Yu Gao and Wen Yong had already left.

In the imperial palace in the capital of Zheng State, Cui Huayu, supported by her maid, walked out of the Emperor Zheng's bedroom and prepared to go watch the excitement.

Emperor Zheng came running over with a box in his hand and a face full of cold sweat.

"Master Cui, Xu Yan did not accept the sword."

Emperor Zheng was trembling in his heart, fearing that Cui Huayu would think he was not doing his job well and would kill him.

“I have ambition!”

Cui Huayu smiled, without any blaming, and asked the maid to put the sword back.

Emperor Zheng breathed a sigh of relief.

Outside the capital of Zheng State, the place where the decisive battle took place.

There were crowds of people all around, all waiting for the battle of geniuses to begin.

On a big tree, Yue'er sat on a branch, swinging her legs, waiting for the Battle of the Pride to begin.

The old man stood silently on a branch nearby, his eyes fixed in the direction of the Zheng Palace.

A small palace flew out from the Zheng Palace and landed on a big tree next to the place of the decisive battle. It was the tallest tree around.

"Is it him?"

The old man was surprised.

Su Zheng and other spiritual warriors from the Lingzong family have surrounded the place of the decisive battle and are ready to take action at any time to form a siege. They are all waiting for the target to appear.

In addition to Meng Chong, the gods of the Wanshi Alliance are also their targets.

The Jade God Sect's leader has arrived, leading all the Jade God Sect's elders.

It was approaching noon.

Three figures came from the sky, one of them had a stern face, eyebrows like golden leaves, and held a golden halberd in his hand.

The true disciple of Chi Ming, Lu Xinting!

"This is the true teaching of Lingzong, so powerful!"

"What a glorious and precious body! Looking at it makes one want to worship it. Xu Yan is in danger!"

"I am also at the peak of the Great Celestial Being, but in front of the True Teachings of Scarlet Netherworld, I feel like an ant. How can a casual cultivator compete with a Spiritual Master?"

Among the warriors watching, there were many independent cultivators at the Great Heavenly Man Realm, and they all felt frustrated and shocked at this moment.

As soon as she saw Lu Xinting, she had no desire to resist at all.

The gap is too big.

"Find an opportunity to become a member of a spiritual family. A casual cultivator's counterattack is nothing but a joke."

"That's right. That so-called independent cultivator force is trying to be on par with the spiritual sect family. It's simply wishful thinking. No matter how strong Xu Yan is, he is just an independent cultivator. How can he compare with this true spiritual sect genius?"

Amidst the discussions, Lu Xinting had already arrived at the center of the decisive battle site.

"Xu Yan, come out and die!"

He held the halberd horizontally and spoke in a cold voice.

No one responded.

"Did Xu Yan back down?"

"Maybe. Seeing how powerful Lu Xinting is, he doesn't dare to fight."

There were mocking voices among the onlookers.

Lu Xinting frowned and asked in a cold voice: "Why, are you scared?"

Still no one answered.

He was secretly angry and was about to continue speaking when a clear female voice rang out, "Hey, it's not time yet, why are you in such a hurry?"

The place of the decisive battle suddenly became quiet.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound.

Lu Xinting's face turned blue and red, and he was secretly furious.

Yue'er's eyes flickered. She stood up, put her hands on her hips and said, "What are you looking at? Did I say something wrong? The decisive battle will be at noon. Didn't he say so himself? It's still a little while before noon!"

Everyone was a little surprised. Although the girl was right, it was still some time before noon, but she was openly embarrassing Lu Xinting.

Who is this girl? She is so bold, she is offending the true teachings of Chi Ming!

Moreover, judging from her attire, she seems to be a casual cultivator?

For a young girl who is just a casual cultivator, she is really too bold.

"Who are you Xu Yan? Capture her!"

Lu Xinting's eyes showed anger and he glared at Yue'er fiercely.

Zhu Liang observed the expression and immediately gave an order with a cold shout.

In an instant, two elders of the Jade God Sect moved and rushed towards Yue'er, trying to capture her.
