Tang Peng's words caused Fang Qingyun to be overjoyed.
The Patriarch of the academy had unparalleled wisdom and was omniscient. Almost every disciple of the academy was filled with respect for the Patriarch.
Tang Peng comparing him to the Patriarch meant that he was definitely qualified to be the Patriarch's disciple and become the Patriarch's personal disciple!
Of course, Fang Qingyun pretended to be calm on the surface and said humbly, "I'm far from the Patriarch's glory."
Yan Bingying's expression was strange as she hesitated to speak.
"What do you want to say, junior sister?"
Fang Qingyun asked with a smile as he noticed Yan Bingying's abnormality from the corner of his eye.
Yan Bingying hesitated for a moment before saying, "I feel that it's inappropriate to let outsiders kill fellow disciples of the academy."
Ever since she witnessed Su Zimo passing the Dao Heart Staircase trial and condensing rank 10 a thousand years ago, her impression of Su Zimo had changed significantly.
She continued, "Furthermore, we don't have any deep grudges with Senior Brother Su. Senior Brother Yuehua only asked us to deal with Yang Ruoxu. There's no need to …"
"Fufu …"
Suddenly, Fang Qingyun chuckled. "You're already calling him Senior Brother Su. Are you close to him, junior sister?"
"No."
Yan Bingying's expression changed slightly as she shook her head hurriedly.
Tang Peng frowned. "Senior Sister Yan, why are you speaking up for that servant? Don't forget that he was the one who killed Senior Brother Pang! "
"We haven't confirmed who killed Senior Brother Pang. The greatest possibility is still Yang Ruoxu," Yan Bingying said.
Tang Peng harrumphed coldly. "That has something to do with Su Zimo as well!"
"Stop arguing."
Fang Qingyun was a little impatient as he hollered, "Su Zimo has offended too many people. It has nothing to do with us if he dies outside."
"Senior Brother, I didn't make it the previous time. I can't miss it this time."
Tang Peng grit his teeth. "I'm going to Avici too. I want to see Su Zimo's fate with my own eyes. Only then will it be satisfying! Last time during the Dao Heart Staircase trial, it was this Su Zimo who made me lose face! "
After pausing for a short moment, Tang Peng was slightly worried and said, "Senior Brother, the Avici Hell is too dangerous. Wouldn't setting up an ambush there be too risky?"
Fang Qingyun smiled and said, "Why are you so stubborn? Our goal is to lure Su Zimo away from Godly Clouds Continent. If you want to fight, why do you have to do it in the Avici Hell? "
"I understand!"
Tang Peng was overjoyed.
"Senior Brother, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."
Yan Bingying felt a bit irritated. She cupped her hands and bid farewell to Fang Qingyun.
Fang Qingyun nodded and did not urge him to stay.
After Yan Bingying left, Tang Peng's face sank, and he asked in a low voice, "Senior Brother, Senior Sister Yan won't report this to the seniors of the sect, right?"
Fang Qingyun said indifferently, "Everything requires evidence. She doesn't have any evidence, so what can she report?"
"That's good."
Tang Peng nodded and said, "I feel that Senior Sister Yan has changed a lot over the years. She's not as close to us anymore."
"Ha …"
Fang Qingyun laughed mockingly and said, "Let's see what she chooses. If she chooses to stand on Su Zimo's side, it can only mean that she's a stupid woman."
"Senior Brother, nothing will go wrong this time, right?"
Tang Peng was a little worried and said, "That Su Zimo seems to be a little evil."
He was full of confidence during the Dao Heart Stairs incident, but in the end, he suffered a big setback.
A true disciple was crippled just like that. Even the nine elders of the academy and the Patriarch were alarmed!
Thinking about it now, he felt a lingering fear.
"This time, it's the Pang clan, the Great Jin Celestial Kingdom, the Flaming Sun Celestial Kingdom, and the Flying Celestial Sect."
Fang Qingyun said in a low voice, "Just Pang Yi, Duke Yuanzuo, Xie Tianhong, and Heavenly Immortal Gui Yuan, these four Stage Nine Heavenly Immortals can kill Su Zimo like stepping on an ant.
"Moreover, these people will bring many of their trusted aides. What can go wrong?"
After pausing for a while, Fang Qingyun continued, "Don't worry, these people have a deep grudge with Su Zimo. They want him dead more than we do! Even if they invite a Perfected Immortal, I won't be surprised. "
"Senior Brother, are you not going this time?"
Tang Peng asked.
"A group of Stage Nine Heavenly Immortals besieging a Stage One Heavenly Immortal. What's there to see? I'm not interested." Fang Qingyun shrugged slightly and pursed his lips.
"Heh! When the time comes, I'll go and join in the fun! "
Tang Peng grinned, his eyes filled with eagerness and anticipation.
…
In a cave abode, Su Zimo let out a long breath and opened his eyes.
After stepping into the Heavenly Essence realm, his cultivation speed had obviously slowed down.
For example, Princess Chi Hong, Liu Ping, and other disciples who joined the inner sect at the same time as him, and even some who joined the inner sect hundreds or thousands of years earlier, had not cultivated to the second level of the Heavenly Essence realm.
As for Su Zimo, with the help of Qinglian's true body, the Divine Dragon Pill, Essence Spirit Liquid, and other supreme-grade cultivation resources, he had already cultivated to the peak of Stage Two Heavenly Immortal!
Although the Stage Eleven Qinglian's true body absorbed the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi very quickly, the consumption of cultivation resources was also unimaginable.
If not for the large amount of cultivation resources he had, it would not even be enough for Qinglian's true body to cultivate for a thousand years.
Cultivating in the Heavenly Essence realm had obviously become much more difficult.
However, it was difficult to continuously break through multiple realms like before when he was in seclusion all year round.
Now, Su Zimo had reached the peak of Stage Two Heavenly Immortal but had encountered a bottleneck. He had been stuck at it for many years and had not succeeded in breaking through.
It was no wonder that even in a Sky-level sect like Heaven and Earth Academy, most of the inner sect disciples would never be able to step into the Perfected Immortal realm.
Cultivators who could become Perfected Immortals all had talent, opportunities, providence, perseverance, and other karma. None of them could be lacking. No one would have a smooth journey.
In the past few days, Liu Ping and Princess Chi Hong had come to his cave abode many times, as if something had happened.
Now, Liu Ping was loitering outside again.
Seeing that he could not break through the bottleneck in a short period of time, Su Zimo did not continue cultivating and prepared to go out to take a look.
"Junior Brother Liu, what's the matter?"
Su Zimo pushed open the door and asked softly.
As Liu Ping had inherited the body of a willow tree, even after a thousand years, he still looked like a child with a few emerald green braids on his head.
Liu Ping hesitated for a moment and said, "Senior Brother Su, something has happened to Senior Brother Yang!"
"Yang Ruoxu?"
Su Zimo's expression changed slightly.
In Heaven and Earth Academy, the only cultivator with the surname Yang that he knew was Yang Ruoxu.
"Yes."
Liu Ping said, "I heard that Senior Brother Yang was traveling outside. Because of some injustice, he got into a conflict with someone and was surrounded."
"Given Senior Brother Yang's means, who can hurt him?"
Su Zimo frowned and asked as he walked towards Yang Ruoxu's cave abode.
"I heard that there were experts from Flying Immortal Sect and Flaming Sun Immortal Kingdom."
Liu Ping said, "However, they were all Rank 9 Heavenly Immortals. Although they joined forces to attack him, they did not bully him. The academy could not say anything either."
"How are his injuries?"
Su Zimo asked again.
"He's severely injured! His Essence Spirit was severely injured. After the Patriarch took a look, he could not treat it either. He's most likely crippled from now on, sigh, "Liu Ping sighed.
Su Zimo's expression darkened and he did not say anything.
Back at the immortal sect selection, if Yang Ruoxu had not withstood the pressure and went against Zither Immortal Mengyao, he would have died long ago!
During the conflict in the outer sect of the academy, Yang Ruoxu had also stood up for him and endured a lot of pressure and hostility.
He was indebted to Yang Ruoxu. Now that he was in trouble, Su Zimo would definitely not sit by and do nothing!
