"This is the true pride of the heavens! Judging from his talent, Shen Yuanming's previous arrogance doesn't seem so annoying anymore, "someone said while looking at the rain of swords falling from the sky.
"I'm afraid Yang Li won't be able to withstand this attack. After all, this attack has touched the level of the Half-Law Realm. It's not something that ordinary people can withstand."
"If Yang Li admits defeat now, Old Man Sun might be able to save his life. If he insists on resisting, I'm afraid that serious injuries are inevitable."
The onlookers cast doubtful and worried gazes at Yang Li. Even Old Man Sun looked at Yang Li worriedly and said, "Yang Li, if you admit defeat now, I can still help you block it! Don't be impulsive! "
Yang Li waved his hand gently. His eyes were full of light as he looked at Shen Yuanming and said, "How can I disappoint you? I, Yang Li, will take this move of yours! "
"Crouching Phoenix Dance!"
The long spear in Yang Li's hand suddenly erupted with an extremely intense radiance. The entire spear soared into the sky, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a red ball. It was like the setting sun, blazing and dazzling.
When the rain of swords in the sky approached, everyone suddenly heard a shrill cry. A golden phoenix suddenly drilled out from the sphere formed by the long spear. Its eyes were bright, and its whole body was emitting terrifying fluctuations. It danced in the air, and all the attacks of the swords were devoured by the phoenix.
When all the swords disappeared, the phoenix let out another cry. Then, it spread its wings in front of its body and slowly dissipated.
As the phoenix's flames dissipated, the light of the Crouching Phoenix Lance also dimmed, and it fell from the sky. Yang Li stretched out his right hand and caught the Crouching Phoenix Lance firmly. He looked at Shen Yuanming again and said calmly.
"You've lost."
However, Shen Yuanming could no longer hear it. After using that move, he fainted from exhaustion. Yang Li was not in a good state at this time. The offensive formation of the Crouching Phoenix Lance could indeed launch an attack of the Half-Law Realm, but it also required the supply of his spiritual power. His spiritual power was now depleted, and his state knowledge was only slightly better than Shen Yuanming's.
At this time, there was still a long time before the Blood Explosion Spell automatically ended. Yang Li also quickly stopped the Blood Explosion Spell, and then his body shook violently, almost collapsing to the ground. Fortunately, the Crouching Phoenix Lance was supporting him, or else he would have fainted like Shen Yuanming.
Yang Li turned his head to look at Sun Sheng and said with a forced smile, "Senior Sun, fortunately, I didn't disappoint you and defeated the opponent."
After that, Yang Li slowly walked in the direction of Sun Sheng. His body was swaying, and Sun Yao was very distressed. She quickly went to support him.
Sun Sheng's eyes also burst into a very bright light, and he laughed and said, "Good, good, good. You are worthy of being the person that I, Sun Sheng, value. You really didn't let me down! Yao Yao, quickly help Yang Li back to rest! "
Yang Li smiled faintly when he heard Sun Sheng's words, but it was not because of the praise, but because he had repaid a part of the life-saving grace. It was too difficult to repay a debt of gratitude, and it was better to pay it back as much as possible.
Yao Yao glared at Sun Sheng and said, "Grandpa! Can't you lower your voice! "
Sun Sheng laughed dryly, and then immediately arranged for the surrounding disciples to go in the direction of Shen Yuanming, planning to send him to a room to rest. At this time, a figure appeared beside Shen Yuanming.
It was a middle-aged man, tall and straight, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. He was extremely handsome, and wore a white robe, exuding a scholarly aura.
The man cupped his hands at Sun Sheng and said, "Old Man Sun, this young man, Gu Xiu, greets you. My disciple took advantage of this young man's unpreparedness to challenge the Sun family, and affected the Sun family's reputation. This young man is deeply sorry, please forgive me."
Sun Sheng was stunned when he heard this, but with his breadth of mind, he naturally wouldn't be too calculative. After all, in the end, Yang Li won, and the Sun family's reputation would instead soar. So he said, "It's fine, it's understandable that you're young and impetuous."
Gu Xiu smiled when he heard this, "Then many thanks for Old Man Sun's understanding. I'll take my disciple away now. I've also heard of what my disciple said. When my disciple finishes his apprenticeship, I'll definitely send him to protect the Sun family for ten years. I hope that Senior will accept him when the time comes."
After Gu Xiu finished speaking, he waved his sleeve and disappeared, leaving the surrounding people looking at each other. Even Sun Sheng was a little surprised. He wasn't an idiot, and he could see that Shen Yuanming had definitely come to challenge Gu Xiu, but in the end, he still agreed to Gu Xiu protect the Sun family for ten years, which surprised him.
And Gu Xiu, who had left, had a smile on his face as he thought, "I originally planned that no matter who the Sun family sent, Ming 'er would lose, but I didn't think that there would actually be someone who could defeat Ming' er. Also, it seems that the Sun family's relationship with him is very good. It seems that the Sun family will definitely become stronger in the future.
A few decades ago, his parents were both poisoned, and he brought them to the Sun family to seek medical treatment. Although the Sun family accepted his parents, the result was very different. His father was saved, but he only lived for ten years, and his mother died on the spot.
This also made him feel grateful and resentful towards the Sun family, so he arranged such a farce, letting Shen Yuanming suppress the opposing young cultivator, and then joining the Sun family to protect the reputation of the Sun family. But this method inevitably made people not know whether to laugh or cry.
… …
One day later, in a wing of the Sun family.
After the battle with Shen Yuanming the day before yesterday, Sun Yao had sent Yang Li here. Yang Li took out the Qi Gathering Stone and the Spirit Transforming Praying Mat and entered into a state of cultivation, restoring his spirit power.
Originally, it would take two days and two nights for the self-recovery of the Blood Explosion Technique to pass, but Yang Li had interrupted the Blood Explosion Technique, allowing him to recover in just one day.
"It's time to go see Senior Sun and Yao Yao." After waking up, Yang Li checked his own condition, and after finding that there were no problems, he put away the two treasures and walked towards the door.
There were two guards outside the door, which were specially arranged by Sun Sheng to guard Yang Li, so that when Yang Li woke up, they would be the first to know, and at the same time to avoid some of the younger children of the Sun family who did not know better, and disturb Yang Li.
After the two guards heard the sound of the door being pushed open, they hurriedly gave a salute to Yang Li, and respectfully said, "Young Master Yang Li, why did you come out? If you need anything, you can just tell us directly. "
When Yang Li heard the two of them, he waved his hand and said, "I don't need anything. Bring me to see Old Man Sun."
"Alright, Young Master Yang Li, please follow me," one of the guards said respectfully.
One of the guards said respectfully. When the other guard heard that Yang Li was going to find Sun Sheng, he immediately took his leave and went to inform Sun Sheng.
As Yang Li walked, he sized up the environment of the Sun family, and the guard beside him kept introducing. The Sun family's mansion was huge, and there were rockery and trees everywhere. There was also a shallow stream, and there were countless pavilions and many wing rooms.
On the way, many people cast curious gazes at Yang Li, and some of the young people who had seen Yang Li fight with Shen Yuanming looked at him with respect.
In this world, strength was always respected. Yang Li had used his strength to subdue the proud Sun family children.
Not long after, the guard brought Yang Li to a small courtyard. The courtyard was a quadrangle, and in the middle was a stone pavilion. The material seemed to be extraordinary. Under the pavilion sat two people. One was Sun Sheng, and the other was Sun Yao.
When Sun Sheng and Sun Yao heard the footsteps, they turned to look. When they saw that it was Yang Li, Sun Sheng smiled and said, "Yang Li, come and sit. This time, you have greatly protected the reputation of the Sun family. This old man has to thank you properly!"
When Yang Li heard this, he smiled and said, "Senior Sun, you are too polite. To this little one, this is just a small matter. Furthermore, this little one has yet to repay you for saving this little one's life. How could I dare to let you thank me?"
"That is a different matter. Come and sit first. Let's have a good chat," said Sun Sheng with a smile.
When Sun Yao saw Yang Li, she became even more excited. Without waiting for Yang Li to enter the courtyard, she ran over and appeared beside Yang Li. She told the guard to leave, and her arms tightly hugged Yang Li as she walked toward the pavilion. This made Yang Li smile bitterly, but he couldn't do anything about it, so he let her go.
After Yang Li sat in the pavilion, the three chatted for a while. Sun Sheng asked Yang Li where he had been. Although Sun Sheng had saved Yang Li, Yang Li couldn't tell him where he had been. So, he made up a random place, and Sun Sheng didn't ask in detail.
"Then, where do you plan to go next?" After chatting for a while, Sun Sheng asked this question.
"When Yao Yao and I left the Secret Territory, Long Ci invited me to go to the Flood Dragon Clan. I don't know what it is, but I have nothing to do recently, so I plan to go and have a look," said Yang Li with a smile.
"It seems that you want to go to the Southern Dragon Territory. What a coincidence. My Sun family will definitely send people to the Southern Dragon Territory. Why don't you come with us?" said Sun Sheng with a smile.
"I wonder why the Sun family is going to the Southern Dragon Territory?" Yang Li was surprised. Logically speaking, people from the other three territories would rarely want to go to the Southern Dragon Territory. That was because the Southern Dragon Territory was basically a mountain range without a single plain. It was only suitable for demonic beasts to live in, not suitable for humans.
"It seems that you still don't know. Then, I'll tell you about it."
"Although the geographical environment of the Southern Dragon Territory isn't good, it is destined to be a place that produces a lot of ores and herbs. At the same time, because the environment of the Southern Dragon Territory is relatively quiet, there are very few people disturbing it. Therefore, many refiners and alchemists will choose to settle down in the Southern Dragon Territory."
"In another two months, it will be the grand meeting of all the alchemists and refiners in the Southern Dragon Territory. This grand meeting is also known as the Alchemy and Artifact Grand Meeting. Not only will there be a large number of refiners and alchemists, there will also be a competition. The prizes are also extremely generous."
"In addition, although the Alchemy and Artifact Grand Meeting is a grand meeting of the entire Southern Dragon Territory, it is actually a grand meeting of the alchemists and refiners of the entire Southern Dragon Territory. When the time comes, I'm afraid that 80% of the alchemists and refiners in the Southern Dragon Territory will go. My Sun family is a medical family, so there is no lack of alchemists. Naturally, we will not miss such a grand meeting."
Sun Sheng explained with a smile.
"So that's how it is. The time that I agreed with Long Ci is a month later. If there is nothing else after I go, I will go and observe. I believe that there will be many things that will be sold in this grand meeting. I can take this opportunity to find some things that will be helpful to me." Yang Li nodded thoughtfully.
