Lu Xuan defeated Wan Jianfei. This was a situation that no one expected. In the direct disciple battle, Leng Qingqiu and Zhao Bing`er never took action. So now, Lu Xuan had fought all the way from the direct disciple battle to the highest level of battle. Even now, there was no one who could match him!
This kind of situation had never appeared in the Profound Ice Pavilion's many years of direct disciple battles. Even when Leng Qingqiu and Zhao Bing`er debuted, they were defeated.
At this moment, the dark golden elemental armor on Lu Xuan's body still did not dissipate. He wanted to give people the impression that he still had enough spirit energy and could completely withstand the consumption of the elemental armor.
Many disciples looked at Lu Xuan with incomparably complicated gazes. They recalled how they ridiculed and belittled Lu Xuan before, but now, Lu Xuan used the truth to slap them in the face. The current Lu Xuan completely needed them to look up to him. It was not because of Zhao Ying's glory, nor because of Zhao Bing`er's halo, but because of his own powerful strength!
However, they had a tacit understanding not to mention what they had said before. It was better to pretend that they had never said it.
"Hehe, as expected, heroes come from the young. Martial Nephew Lu's strength really surprised me. My Profound Ice Pavilion has such a talent, why worry that the sect won't prosper!" Su Chuanan laughed out loud. His words were not false. He really did not expect Lu Xuan to be able to do this. He simply relied on his own strength to overturn Nangong Shuo's entire sect.
Because of Lu Xuan's actions, Nangong Shuo's prestige would definitely be greatly affected. Ever since Nangong Shuo became the Great Elder, he had never suffered such a major provocation. Although a direct disciple battle could not shake Nangong Shuo's position, the impact on him was unavoidable.
Su Chuanan became more and more regretful. He only hated that Lu Xuan was not his disciple. If he had a talent like Lu Xuan under him, he would be able to officially provoke Nangong Shuo from this moment on. But now, he could at most use Lu Xuan's strength to attack Nangong Shuo's faction.
Thinking of this, Su Chuanan could not help but look at Nangong Shuo. He wanted to see what this old fox would say. Even Wan Jianfei was defeated by Lu Xuan. Nangong Shuo no longer had anyone he could use. He could not really send Leng Qingqiu up. If that was the case, even if he won, he would be cursed.
Nangong Shuo had already withdrawn his sharp gaze, as if Wan Jianfei's defeat had nothing to do with him at all. He was still lying on his chair, completely unperturbed. When everyone's gazes were focused on him, Nangong Shuo coughed lightly and slowly said, "Martial Nephew Lu's defensive martial skill is not bad. I've lived for a long time, but this is the first time I've seen such a strong defensive martial skill. If we can popularize it, it will be a matter of boundless virtue. Our Profound Ice Pavilion will definitely be able to become the leader of the fourth rank sects."
Hearing this, everyone was slightly startled. They did not expect that Nangong Shuo did not mention Wan Jianfei's defeat or Lu Xuan's battle results. Instead, he picked up Lu Xuan's defensive martial skill and made a fuss about it.
However, many of them were tempted by Lu Xuan's move, but they did not say anything. To be honest, they were very covetous of Lu Xuan's defensive martial art skill. It was an armor that could withstand Wan Jianfei's strongest attack. If they could learn it, their combat prowess would be more than doubled. What was the thing that martial artists feared the most? It was encountering danger when they were out in the world. If they had such a powerful defensive martial art skill, their chances of survival would be doubled.
Lu Xuan smirked coldly in his heart. How could he not know what Nangong Shuo was trying to do? It was obvious that Nangong Shuo wanted to force him to hand over this martial technique. This would undoubtedly deal a great blow to Lu Xuan, and the advantage of Lu Xuan's strongest trump card would be completely gone.
It had to be said that Nangong Shuo was very astute. However, it was a pity that he was wrong about one thing. The reason why Lu Xuan could have such a strong defensive ability was not just because of the Elemental Armor, but also because of the two great Divine Imprints. More importantly, Lu Xuan's Elemental Armor was an improved version of the Ice Crystal Armor. The basic cultivation technique was still the Ice Crystal Armor, but without the Taiyi Regression Technique, no one would be able to practice it.
Seeing that Lu Xuan didn't reply, Nangong Shuo had no choice but to open his mouth again. "Martial Nephew Lu, why don't we discuss this? For the sake of the sect's development, why don't you hand over this defensive martial skill, and you can choose any of the other cultivation techniques in the sect?"
"Elder Nangong, what a good plan. Using a Secret Technique to exchange for a few martial techniques that everyone in the sect knows about." Zhao Ying indifferently spoke. As Lu Xuan's master, how could Zhao Ying not stand up for Lu Xuan?
Nangong Shuo had long expected that Zhao Ying would object. He calmly and unhurriedly said, "Elder Zhao's words are wrong. As the Great Elder of the sect, I have the responsibility to contribute to the development of the sect. Why should I be selfish? If this defensive martial skill can be spread out, the sect would lose a lot of disciples every year. This is a matter of boundless virtue."
However, before Zhao Ying could say anything, Su Chuanan said with a smile, "Elder Nangong's words are well spoken. For the sake of the sect's development, Elder Nangong is indeed doing his best. You are truly a role model for us."
Nangong Shuo was somewhat baffled. Su Chuanan had always been at odds with him. Why did he suddenly agree with him? Could it be that he had taken a fancy to Lu Xuan's martial skill?
However, Su Chuanan's following words quickly shattered Nangong Shuo's thoughts. He only heard Su Chuanan say, "Elder Nangong's Blood Dripping Sword Art is an extremely strong martial skill. It seems to be extremely close to an Earth Ranked martial skill, right? I think it would be better to take it out and let everyone learn it. This way, with Lu Xuan's defensive martial skill and Elder Nangong's Blood Dripping Sword Art, why would the sect need to worry about not prospering? Elder Nangong, don't you think so? "
Nangong Shuo's tone became sluggish. He did not expect Su Chuanan to use his earlier words to attack him. He cursed in his heart. The Blood Dripping Sword Art was his strongest martial skill. In terms of attack power, it could be said to be the number one martial skill in the Profound Ice Pavilion. Out of so many disciples, he did not pass it down to anyone but Leng Qingqiu. Su Chuanan actually had his eyes on this martial skill.
If they really did as Su Chuanan said, then it would be a great loss for him. He would give up the Blood Dripping Sword Art, Lu Xuan would give up a protective martial technique, and the others would not have to pay anything. They would get two sets of powerful martial techniques for free.
Nangong Shuo said with a smile that did not reach his eyes, "Elder Su's words are wrong. I also want to take out the Blood Dripping Sword Art for everyone to learn, but I obtained this martial skill from a mysterious martial arts expert. When he passed it down to me, he instructed me that this martial skill can only be passed down to one person. I am not keeping it to myself."
Su Chuanan curled his lips, disapproving in his heart. It seemed that Nangong Shuo was also using this excuse to trick his disciples. Otherwise, if he only passed it down to Leng Qingqiu, there would definitely be disciples who would feel that it was unfair.
Su Chuanan no longer spoke to Nangong Shuo. Instead, he looked at Lu Xuan and said, "Martial Nephew Lu, then I assume that this martial skill of yours is also passed down to only one person, right?"
He was also hinting at Lu Xuan. Since Nangong Shuo could use this excuse to escape, he, Lu Xuan, could naturally do the same.
Zhao Ying said indifferently, "It doesn't matter if it's a single disciple or not, no one can have any ideas about my disciple."
Su Chuanan still had to worry about the impact, but Zhao Ying did not care about that. If she did not want to do something, no one could force her. With these words, it meant that she was determined to protect Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan's heart warmed, but he was not willing to make things difficult for Zhao Ying. He immediately said, "It's just a martial skill, it's not a big deal. It's the duty of us disciples to contribute to the sect."
Everyone was startled when they heard this. Was Lu Xuan's brain not working well? Su Chuanan and Zhao Ying, the two great elders, had stood up for him, yet he still had to give up his martial skill? They were all puzzled. Could it be that although Lu Xuan's martial strength was high, his EQ was not high? But they didn't think about it. If Lu Xuan's EQ wasn't high, how could he have gotten so many beauties?
Nangong Shuo was ecstatic when he heard this and quickly said, "Martial nephew Lu's awareness is indeed high. If you are able to promote this martial skill, you will definitely be a great contributor to the sect."
Lu Xuan laughed, "Elder Nangong, don't be anxious. Actually, this martial skill has always been in the Martial Skill Pavilion. If you want to learn it, you can head to the Martial Skill Pavilion yourself."
"What do you mean?"
"Elder Nangong, don't you think my armor looks familiar?"
Nangong Shuo was startled and immediately snorted, "Are you saying this is the Ice Crystal Armor? That's impossible. The color of the Ice Crystal Armor is too different from your armor. "
"Sigh, seems like I have overestimated Elder Nangong's eyesight. Who would have thought that as a peak stage Origin Realm martial artist, Elder Nangong could not even recognize this." Lu Xuan secretly mocked Nangong Shuo and continued, "For the sake of looking better, I purposely changed the color of the armor. Elder Nangong can take another look."
As he spoke, Lu Xuan quickly withdrew his Will of Wind and converted all of his Elemental Power into Ice Elemental Power. The dark golden elemental armor instantly turned into the light blue Ice Crystal Armor that everyone was very familiar with.
That change left everyone dumbfounded. They had seen it clearly just now, and other than the change in color, there was nothing different about it at all. It was not that they had not guessed that Lu Xuan's armor was the Ice Crystal Armor, but they firmly believed that the Ice Crystal Armor did not have such powerful defensive capabilities, which was why they firmly believed that it was another set of martial arts techniques.
Seeing Lu Xuan chatting with Nangong Shuo, Du Xiaomao couldn't help but chuckle. She knew the inside story and knew that Lu Xuan wasn't lying. Lu Xuan's armor was originally an improved version of the Ice Crystal Armor.
Zhao Ying also noticed the smile on Du Xiaomao's face and couldn't help but whisper, "Xiaomao, you know the inside story?"
Facing her master's inquiry, Du Xiaomao naturally didn't dare to hide anything and said, "I have been cultivating with Lu shidi for a month. I watched him successfully cultivate this set of martial skill. This is the Ice Crystal Armor, but Lu shidi made a small improvement. As for why it is so powerful, I don't know."
Zhao Ying revealed a smile on her face and said, "This kid really has some ideas. Nangong Shuo has made the wrong decision this time."
Thinking of this, Zhao Ying looked at Zhao Bing`er again and felt that it was a good idea to let Lu Xuan be with Zhao Bing`er. Lu Xuan wasn't someone who could be easily bullied. If anyone wanted to bully Zhao Bing`er in the future, it wouldn't be so easy. At least, the previous incident wouldn't happen again.
