Chapter 27: The Overbearing Master's Love?
Chapter 27: The Overbearing Master's Love?
Qi Yuan stood on the platform, his sleeves fluttering in the wind, creating a dramatic effect.
Could it be... that I'm too handsome?
Had his opponent surrendered due to his stunning appearance?
Qi Yuan looked at Duan Tianjiao, who had conceded defeat. She was a woman.
It was only natural for her to be captivated by his good looks.
As for the gazes of the others directed at Qi Yuan, he seemed to be oblivious to them.
"This match, Qi Yuan wins!"
Qi Yuan calmly accepted the result.
He stepped down from the platform.
Other cultivators took their turns, engaging in martial displays and duels, thoroughly enjoying themselves.
Qi Yuan sat upright among the crowd, feeling drowsy from watching.
Duke Changshan stroked his beard, a smile on his face. "Little Brother Qi, with the First Rank Foundation Establishment Spirit Treasure, the Golden Flower Fruit, your future is promising."
Qi Yuan was puzzled. "The duels aren't over yet. How do you know I'll be the first to succeed?"
Duke Changshan smiled but remained silent.
Time flew by.
It was Qi Yuan's turn again.
This time, Qi Yuan faced a sword cultivator from Floating Mountain.
Sword cultivators were quite rare in the Great Shang Kingdom.
Qi Yuan took this seriously.
He was curious to see the sword cultivator's sword control technique, whether it involved flying on a sword or transforming into sword light.
Of course, he knew that a mere Qi Condensation cultivator wouldn't be able to fly on a sword.
"Please give me guidance!"
The sword was a gentleman's weapon, and Qi Yuan, facing the stern-eyed youth, remained humble and polite.
The sword cultivator from Floating Mountain held an iron sword, its cold light flickering. He pointed the sword at Qi Yuan.
Qi Yuan extended his finger, transforming it into a sword finger.
In the game world, his weapon was a Great Treasure Sword.
The way of the sword.
A thrilling and exhilarating battle of sword techniques between men was about to unfold.
However, at this critical moment, the sword cultivator's face turned pale in an instant, and he clutched his stomach. "Such an overbearing technique, harming without a trace!
Senior Brother... I concede!"
Indeed, the youth conceded and stepped down from the platform.
Qi Yuan was stunned.
This scene seemed a bit too coincidental. Could it be that his looks had even captivated men?
Thinking about this, Qi Yuan decided it was best to stay indoors.
After another victory, Qi Yuan stepped down, squinting as he suddenly looked towards Seven-Colored Peak.
The peak towered majestically, with clouds weaving between its peaks, and a white jade palace could be vaguely seen.
His master.
Qi Yuan pondered, recalling that unruly woman.
Perhaps, in the entire Divine Light Sect, only she would have the audacity to do something like this," he thought.
"Little Brother Qi, is the Golden Flower Fruit already in your possession?" Duke Changshan's eyes sparkled with laughter. "To have such a master is a blessing in this lifetime."
After the appearance of the First Rank Foundation Establishment Spirit Treasure, the Golden Flower Fruit, these cultivators from prominent sects were indeed quite excited, eager for a chance.
Unfortunately, the Peak Master of Seven-Colored Peak had sent a flying pigeon to other sects.
There were no enticements, only coercion, and some favors.
These prominent sect members felt helpless and unwilling, but they had no choice but to endure.
After all, such an audacious cultivator was rare, and their strength was formidable.
They had to respect the Peak Master's face.
So, they had come here and put on this show.
Of course, other Qi Condensation disciples would still do their best to duel when they met.
Foundation Establishment Spirit Treasures weren't limited to the Golden Flower Fruit.
Qi Yuan looked at Duke Changshan and said, "Is my master's influence that great?"
"It's not just about influence, but also strength," Duke Changshan replied with a nostalgic expression. "Thirty years ago, the Demon Desire Sect had grand ambitions, aiming to unify the Great Shang Kingdom and become the leader of the Immortal Dao.
Do you know what happened after that?"
The Mysterious Lady of Seven-Colored Peak
Qi Yuan's curiosity grew, and he listened intently.
To be honest, he had only been in this world for half a year.
He hadn't spent much time with his Master, so he didn't know much about her, except for one thing—she was incredibly beautiful.
"Your Master, the Peak Master of Seven-Colored Peak, went alone to the Demon Desire Sect."
"She took a liking to their newly grown Ancient Guchi Chunmu tree."
At that time, the Demon Desire Sect was at its peak, and a confrontation was inevitable.
No one knew what happened, but somehow, your Master managed to transplant the Ancient Guchi Chunmu tree to Seven-Colored Peak."
Duke of Changshan smiled knowingly.
"Since then, the Demon Desire Sect has never brought it up again, and the matter of becoming the leader of the Great Shang's Immortal Sects was dropped."
Of course, due to this incident, the Peak Master of Seven-Colored Peak had earned the gratitude of the various Immortal Sects, which was why they were willing to give face and let her disciple obtain the First Rank Foundation Establishment Spirit Treasure.
Upon hearing this, Qi Yuan blurted out without thinking, "Is my Master in love with me?"
Duke of Changshan's smile faded as he said, "You, keep your voice down, don't drag me into this!"
Duke of Changshan was genuinely afraid of the Peak Master of Seven-Colored Peak.
Rumor had it that she was a powerful cultivator in the late Divine Infancy stage, and if not for her injury, she would have already entered the Purple Mansion Realm.
Qi Yuan's spell combat proceeded smoothly.
Each time he took the stage, his opponents conceded.
Perhaps they had been warned by their elders not to harm the beloved disciple of the Peak Master of Seven-Colored Peak.
However, as Qi Yuan entered the final round, an unexpected event occurred.
"Black Mountain Sect, Chu Yundong, please give me your guidance!" Chu Yundong, dressed in black, exuded a powerful aura of killing intent.
Instead of conceding immediately, he looked at Qi Yuan with utmost seriousness.
Qi Yuan was not surprised.
"Please give me your guidance."
He said, glancing at a uniquely shaped magical tool in Chu Yundong's hand.
It resembled a feather duster, covered in black feathers, densely packed and incredibly hard.
[This is a Foundation Establishment Magical Tool. When activated, the feathers scatter, capable of harming Foundation Establishment cultivators.]
The elders of the various sects in the audience were astonished by this sight, and some looked towards Chicken Worshipping Ancestor, deep in thought.
"Black Mountain Sect's ambitions are not small." Flying Flowers Elder from the Demon Desire Sect looked at Chicken Worshipping Ancestor.
Chicken Worshipping Ancestor smiled and said, "Foundation Establishment Spirit Treasures are available to all.
Otherwise, what's the point of holding a Foundation Establishment Gathering?"
"Even a Foundation Establishment Magical Tool is being used." Floating Mountain's Light-Splitting Sword Master narrowed his eyes, staring at Chicken Worshipping Ancestor, "Black Chicken Old Demon... his cultivation must have progressed further."
The others also looked at Chicken Worshipping Ancestor, hoping to learn more about the Black Chicken Old Demon.
No one believed that Black Mountain Sect's sudden challenge was without the Black Chicken Old Demon's involvement.
The Black Chicken Old Demon was at the mid-stage Divine Infancy, while the Peak Master of Seven-Colored Peak was rumored to be an injured late Divine Infancy cultivator.
Could it be... that the Black Chicken Old Demon had broken through to the late Divine Infancy stage? From this incident, the audience gleaned much information.
Chu Tian Xiong also smiled with satisfaction. Earlier, when Qi Yuan had predicted bloodlight calamity, he had wanted to get angry, but was stopped by the Old Ancestor. Now, witnessing this, he felt particularly pleased.
He wanted to see Chu Yundong use the Foundation Establishment Magical Tool to defeat Qi Yuan and take the First Rank Foundation Establishment Spirit Treasure.
The elders of the various sects on the stage stopped paying attention to the outcome and instead thought about how to relay this information back to their sects.
Only Duke of Changshan and Chu Tian Xiong remained focused on the arena.
Unfortunately, due to the rules, Duke of Changshan couldn't warn Qi Yuan about Chu Yundong's Foundation Establishment Magical Tool.
