“Shut up!” With a stern face, Mingxiao Master cried, “He said that only because he lost his senses at the fit of anger! How can you take it seriously? You’re talking nonsense. Stop slandering him!”
“He lost his senses at the fit of anger?” With cold light in Shiao Chen’s eyes, he said, “Mingxiao Master, my relatives are not related to you. You can regard this matter as a misunderstanding, but I can’t. Also, I dare not to take that risk!”
“You!”
“Anyone with conscience will have been forced to take an axe to the one who threatened to hurt their families, but I only broke his Dantian. I’m kind enough to him. Does Mingxiao Master want to break the rules and to connive your disciple to harm the secular relatives of the cultivators like me, by virtue of Flaming Sect’s powerful strength?! The victim today is me, but in the long run, every fellow cultivators sitting around may become the victims!” Shiao Chen's voice was harsh and for a time, Mingxiao Master’s imposing manner was completely suppressed by it.
Hearing what Shiao Chen said, cultivators of all sects could not help but cloud their faces. Their eyes cast at Mingxiao Master also became unfriendly at that time.
“Stop talking nonsense, boy. When did Flaming Sect act like this?!” Mingxiao Master felt a panic in his heart that if Flaming Sect were to be convicted of this, they would be the enemy of the whole Beihua State. Even with Flaming Sect’s great strength, they would still not have a good ending.
“Whether it’s true or not, it can not be judged from what I said and what Mingxiao Master said. The friends present today have their own judgement.” Shiao Chen did not argue, he just sneered and said, “Moreover, in the midst of the struggles between our two sects today, magic power on the Immortal-welcoming Arena was merciless, and it is inevitable for us to be hurt. More than a dozen disciples of Luoyun Valley were hurt by Mingxiao Chenzhan continuously just now, but Mingxiao Master said nothing about that. Besides, we were threatened by your words that it was ok as long as not to take their lives. In the same way, I just broke his Dantian and his meridians and bones, instead of taking his life, which didn’t breach the covenants of our two sects. Mingxiao Master, I wonder why do you deal with them so differently?! Moreover, as a Gold Core cultivator, you kept interfering wantonly and repeatedly with me. Are you not afraid of being laughed at by the friends present for bullying a junior?”
“Shut up, little bastard!” Mingxiao Master’s old face turned as red as a pig's liver. His eyes became bloodshot instantly, and a brutal breath out broke from his body crazily.
“Kill him! Kill him! Kill him! Kill him! Kill him!” At the moment, he had only one idea, which was to slag Shiao Chen, and by that whose soul would be extracted and melted. He would make Shiao Chen doomed and never recover!
“Ha!” At this very moment, Tianji Taoist of Flaming Sect immediately shouted out loudly, “Younger brother Mingxiao, wake up quickly!” In this shouting, spells to keep down soul had been added in, and with the sound tide billowing, all cultivators inside the hall were shocked.
The tyrannous murderous intention of Mingxiao Master subsided instantly, and he hurried to calm down his soul, feeling feared. Just now he got carried away by fury. He had just made a breakthrough to Gold Core that his consolidation was still unstable, so that unexpectedly, he was clouded by the murderous intention. If it was not that Tianji Taoist called him back in time, at the very least, he would be weakened in spirit, and at the most extent, his cultivation would be disordered, even dropping to the former realm.

It was not easy to reach Gold Core Realm. If Mingxiao Master returned to the original form, supposedly, he would be pissed off on the spot.
“Brother, thank you for your help.” Mingxiao Master turned around and made a salute, after which he manged to calmed down.
Wearing a gloomy face, with a flash of light, Tianji Taoist fell on the Immortal-welcoming Arena and said coldly, “Chief Master Qingyun Taoist, as agreed, the Flaming Sect admitted being defeated in this Sect Contest between our two sects. Please send someone to master the sect within a year. We have so many things to prepare in the sect that we have to return now. See you!”
After that, with a flash of light, he went straight to the Spirit Beasts Pavilion.
Mingxiao Master glanced at Shiao Chen coldly and said in a low voice, “Don't go out alone, little bastard, or I'll make sure you never come back alive!”
After he finished speaking, he picked up Mingxiao Chenzhan, who was like rotten meat, and put up a spiritual shield, ready to leave.
But at that very moment, Mingxiao Chenzhan burst out laughing, which sounded like the cuckoo cried out blood, and like the old crow cawed sadly. It was dismal and full of vicissitudes, and more over, it was with the hatred that could not be thoroughly washed away even the heaven and earth were both destroyed.
“Ha ha ha ha, Shiao Chen, Shiao Chen, from today on, I will change the name Mingxiao Chenzhan into Mie Chen (Mie, means “kill”). One day, I will come back to fight with you! Wait for me! Wait for me!” When he was laughing, suddenly, tears of blood flowed out of his eyes, which looked terrible.
“I’ll wait for you.” Shiao Chen felt surprised to hear that at first, then he said lightly with a poker face.
Mingxiao Master felt some sadness in his heart. It was true that he had put so much effort into Mingxiao Chenzhan, his great-great-grandson, that he had not expected him to be completely destroyed today.
“Luoyun Valley, this matter is unfinished!” With the voice lingering in the air, the Flaming Sect had already been far away. The three odious toads, a giant and two small, all rose in the air with a roar of rage, and with the black clouds billowing, they went straight to the north.
“Qingyun Taoist and Alchemy Taoist, I also have to return now.” Xuanqing Taoist looked at Shiao Chen with mixed feelings, saluted with his hands in front of the chest, sighed slightly and turned to leave with his disciples .
In the next few hundred years, the Cultivation World of Beihua State will be the stage of this outstanding young man!”
“And Black Evil Sect will return now.” Master Ming Sha kept poker-faced and left with disciples after a slight salute. A moment later the centipede rose into the air, whose eyes, as big as lantern, glanced towards them, and it paused suddenly before it screamed with a wide mouth open, and then it turned quickly and fled.
On the Immortal-welcoming Arena, Shiao Chen smiled lightly. It seemed that the evil beast was at last afraid of what he had suffered last time.
Within half an hour, more than a hundred cultivators in Beihua State came forward to say farewells and left, which seemed more respectfully than before. After all, from today's situation, in the next hundred years, it was inevitable that Luoyun Valley would hold sway over Beihua State and they should naturally curry favor carefully.
When the crowd had been dispersed, only the cultivators of Luoyun Valley were left on the Immortal-welcoming Arena.
Qingyun Taoist and Alchemy Taoist looked at each other and nodded slightly with satisfaction, when the former rose and said to all, “Today it is Shiao Chen’s single brilliant feat that rescued the Luoyun Valley from a desperate situation and helped us turn the tables, which held the other sects in awe and expanded our prestige! Hereby I announce that, from today on, Shiao Chen has officially become the core disciple of Luoyun Valley and the Elder of the Elixir Pavilion, whose status is only beneath younger brother and me. Disciples, bow and express your thanks to Elder Shiao for his great achievements!”
“We pay respects to Uncle Master Shiao Chen!” The cultivators, at the moment, no matter his cultivation was high or low and how they thought in the heart, all turned around, bent over and gave Shiao Chen a big bow.
Shiao Chen felt a surge in his heart. Who had ever thought that the original nominal disciple would have such a turn in his life just one year later?
