Chapter 384 Steady
Many outer disciples were also dissatisfied:
"Yes, Senior Brother Yuan, the sword did collide head-on with the cold iron dart but remained unscathed. What Shi Yan said is true!"
"Shouldn't Master Xiao explain what's going on with the sword in his hand?"
"It's one thing for Miss Yun to be very powerful, but it's another thing for her to secretly help break the fairness in the competition! If this matter is not made clear, we will not accept it!"
"Shut up!" Yuan Si said with a cold face, annoyed.
"Master Xiao's swordsmanship is exquisite, and none of his swords collided head-on with the cold iron dart! If you were more powerful, you would not have made a mistake in seeing where the tip of his sword landed, it was always on the handle of the dart!"
"Hiss..." All the outer disciples widened their eyes.
"Is this still possible?"
"Is this... something an ordinary person can do?"
"Since Senior Brother Yuan said so, it can't be wrong..."
"Don't doubt it. Look carefully at the brothers and elders in the inner sect. Why don't they have any doubts?"
"Oh my god... If that's true, then he would be stronger than many of our outer disciples just by his martial arts skills!"
"Be more confident, you are stronger than most outer disciples... Well, work hard at training!"
Yun Qingqing curled her lips coldly, not surprised by this result.
Even if Xiao Changheng is just an ordinary person, he is still a top fighter among ordinary people!
On the other hand, in today's world where spiritual energy is depleted, cultivators in the Qi Refining stage are no longer as strong as they used to be. Although Xiao Changheng has no natural physique, his physique is no worse than that of a Qi Refining stage cultivator. Challenging the next level is nothing for him.
Even if Shi Yan was placed in the outer sect, he would just be a mediocre guy. However, he relied on his insignificant Xuanmen status to suppress ordinary people. He deserved the humiliation he brought upon himself.
"Impossible! No...Puff!!!" Shi Yan was devastated. He refused to accept the truth. His blood boiled and he vomited blood.
Yun Qingqing was too lazy to look at him anymore, she just looked at Yuan Si and said calmly:
"It seems that he is unwilling to accept reality. Then the matter of apologizing and expelling him from the Seven Stars Hall will be left to you to carry out."
"Yes." Yuan Si responded respectfully.
Xiao Changheng turned around and walked towards Yun Qingqing.
Shi Yan finally realized that what was more terrifying than being defeated miserably by an ordinary person in public was that he actually had to kneel at the highest point of the mountain gate to apologize to that person!
And he will be expelled from the Seven Stars Palace!
He bit his teeth until they bled, and his eyes were filled with madness. He suddenly took a deep breath, jumped up and rushed towards Xiao Changheng.
"You jerk! Why should I apologize to you? Never!!!"
"Let's die together!"
Xiao Changheng turned around suddenly and saw that Shi Yan's face was distorted. He was very familiar with this scene and reacted immediately.
This man couldn't bear the blow and wanted to blow himself up and take him to death with him!
The elders and many inner disciples present also reacted and cried out in surprise!
"No! Stop him!"
"He is only at the Qi Refining stage, how can he know how to self-destruct?"
"Stay away!"
"My Lord!"
"Ancestor, please save them!"
In the chaos, I don't know which elder shouted "Master", but it was drowned out by the noise and no one noticed.
Everything happened in a flash. Xiao Changheng only felt two figures suddenly flash in front of him, and the next moment he heard Yun Qingqing's angry shout.
"court death!"
A formation appeared out of nowhere and held Shi Yan tightly. After a moment, there was a loud bang like muffled thunder, and a dazzling light shot out from the formation, causing everyone present to close their eyes.
When she opened her eyes again, she saw the golden light in front of Yun Qingqing disappear, and there was nothing left except a dark mark on the ground.
The disciples were in an uproar.
Behind Yun Qingqing and in front of Xiao Changheng, stood Yuan Si, who was still trying to make hand gestures but had no time to perform any of them.
Everyone was shocked, but also breathed a sigh of relief.
The Great Elder's eyes were filled with tears, thinking that he was worthy of being the master. If he had been there today, there would have been no way he could have stopped the self-destructing beast so easily, and there would have been casualties.
Yun Qingqing turned and walked towards the elders, her eyes cold:
"There is something wrong with Shi Yan's soul. His evil thoughts have been amplified. Someone must have tampered with his soul."
The incident happened suddenly and others didn't react at all, but Yun Qingqing saw it clearly.
At the moment when the smoke from Shi Yan's self-explosion dissipated, a wisp of black gas clearly overflowed from between his eyebrows and disappeared in a moment.
"What!" The great elders and others were shocked.
"Someone actually attacked our sect's disciples! Investigate! We must investigate thoroughly!"
Yun Qingqing was not vague and said directly:
"It's not a brilliant trick, it's just hidden in the dark and not easy to detect. Everyone from top to bottom will go through the Conscience Bureau, and there will be no omissions."
"Yes!" Several elders bowed in agreement and immediately began to arrange follow-up matters.
Yun Qingqing slowly breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to take Xiao Changheng back to the villa first.
But he heard that among the crowd of outer disciples, the topic gradually shifted from the self-destruction incident to Xiao Changheng.
“Then again, Young Master Xiao hasn’t even drawn Qi into his body, yet he has such strength… He actually has no aptitude for cultivation, which is really a pity!”
"What a pity! One's physique determines the upper limit of one's cultivation. Without physique, even if one is the best among ordinary people, one will still be useless in the end. This is fate!"
There were also many outer sect female disciples who sighed quietly:
"To be honest, this Mr. Xiao has a really excellent appearance and temperament. Although his talent is a bit useless, he is able to suppress the Qi Refining Stage with his martial arts, which is actually not bad."
"Really? I can understand why Miss Yun chose him as her husband..."
"Anyway, ordinary people can't be Taoist companions, and their life span is short, so it's okay to make do with them before choosing a Taoist companion..."
Yun Qingqing frowned and turned to look at Xiao Changheng. Sure enough, she saw him standing there with his eyes downcast, expressionless, as if he was unaware of the discussions around him.
But how is that possible? This person has the sharpest hearing!
Yun Qingqing summoned Dawn and threw it into the air, then pulled up Xiao Changheng:
"Come back with me!"
After saying that, he took him onto the sword and flew directly into the air towards the villa in the back mountain.
After flying for a while, she always felt a little awkward.
After thinking about it for a while, she realized that Xiao Changheng behind her was just pulling at the corner of her clothes vaguely, and he was as far away from her as possible in the limited space.
She felt unhappy and said coldly:
"Hold it steady, or it will affect my flying sword."
The man behind him didn't move.
Yun Qingqing gritted her teeth in annoyance and suddenly stopped in mid-air.
Even though Xiao Changheng was extremely powerful and had an excellent sense of balance, he still couldn't keep his balance and his chest hit her back directly.
Yun Qingqing took his hand and placed it on her waist and reiterated:
"Hold it steady."
Realizing that the man had finally obeyed, she resumed flying forward on her sword.
But not long after, a man's deep voice suddenly rang in my ears, accompanied by warm breath:
"Can we... go to Wanling Pond first?"
Yun Qingqing frowned, hesitated for a moment, and then asked carefully:
"Why did you go to find the spiritual pond alone today?"
Xiao Changheng was silent for a moment and whispered:
"You've already guessed it, haven't you?"
