You're Telling Me You're an Ordinary Cultivator??

On the plain, the afternoon wind blew gently, and the withered yellow grass surged into the distance in layers, making a soft rustling sound.

The sky was a clear blue, with a few thick, fluffy white clouds hanging lazily on the horizon.

The faint smell of blood in the air was blown away by the wind and gradually disappeared without a trace, as if nothing had happened.

But the shock in Xiao Changli's heart had not yet dissipated.

He originally only planned to escort his junior disciple Mu Yunxue home for the New Year, but as soon as he flew out of the Golden Sun Mountain Range, he sensed two fluctuations of Spiritual Qi.

Both were at the Golden Core level.

Moreover, each one is quite formidable!

One of them had an aura similar to his own, while the other even made him instinctively feel a deadly threat.

Most importantly, he had never seen either of these fluctuations before.

As an elder of the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect, he naturally couldn't ignore the sudden appearance of two Golden Core experts of unknown origin at the sect's entrance.

Fortunately, this was at the entrance to his own mountain, so Xiao Changli wasn't worried about safety.

If anything happens, the sect's support can arrive at any time.

So he brought Mu Yunxue with him and quietly approached.

Then he saw what had happened before.

There are quite a few Golden Core Lineage under the rule of the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect, and he naturally knew about the Li Household.

The Li Household patriarch was an old man at the Peak Golden Core, but it seemed he didn't have much lifespan left.

However, he had never seen this younger member of the Li Household before.

Upon seeing that the younger generation of the Li Household were outside leading a group to try and kill their fellow disciples, Xiao Changli frowned and decided to punish them.

But what happened next was completely beyond his expectations.

The rather handsome young man, seemingly imbued with the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, gently raised his hand and swung his sword.

This sword strike instantly sent chills down his spine.

It's not about how powerful this sword strike was.

For Xiao Changli, who Peak Golden Core, that pale golden sword light was like a child playing house; it couldn't even scratch his protective aura.

What truly shocked him was the Law Technique Lu Yang used.

Heavy Sword Technique!

The Golden Rainbow Sword Sect's introductory Law Technique!

Furthermore, the Cultivation Method fluctuations emanating from his body clearly indicated the Heavy Sword Instruction, a fundamental Cultivation Method within the sect!

As Golden Core elder of the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect, he was naturally familiar with Heavy Sword Technique and Heavy Sword Instruction.

The problem is, the Heavy Sword Technique and Heavy Sword Instruction this little guy uses are far more powerful than he imagined!

Under normal circumstances, even if one had mastered the Heavy Sword Technique and Heavy Sword Instruction to perfection, their power should not be this great!

With Xiao Changli's discerning eye, he could naturally see that this little guy possessed several Supreme-Grade Law Artifacts, which would provide a certain boost to his Metal Dao and Sword Dao.

Even so, the power after the enhancement is still too unreasonable!

Xiao Changli squinted and carefully examined the sword technique for a while before finally noticing something amiss: the Heavy Sword Technique and Heavy Sword Instruction used by this young man seemed to be different from the versions used in the sect.

The trajectory of the Sword Intent is more refined, the conversion efficiency of Spiritual Qi is higher, and even the way the sword light resonates with the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi when it strikes down has undergone subtle changes.

Xiao Changli's heart skipped a beat.

He quickly realized what this meant.

This young man has probably cultivated these two Cultivation Method Law Technique to a level that even their creators haven't reached!

He actually improved the sect's long-standing cultivation Cultivation Method!

What Xiao Changli found most absurd was that he sensed a faint aura of the Metal Dao Principle from this young man, and even a hint of the Sword Dao Principle.

He simply couldn't imagine how a Mid-stage Qi Refining kid could have done that!

What terrifying comprehension and profound understanding of the Great Dao must one possess to touch the threshold of the Principle at the Qi Refining Realm?!

He glanced subconsciously at Mu Yunxue beside him.

Even Mu Yunxue, her junior disciple, is probably far inferior to this little guy in terms of comprehension.

While his mind was still in a state of confusion, the young man below had already calmly and efficiently dealt with all the Rogue Cultivators, each strike swift and decisive.

Only the last member of the Li Household remained.

Xiao Changli to his senses and hesitated whether to stop the little guy from attacking the younger generation of the Li Household.

The younger generation of the Li Household attacked and killed this little guy first, so the little guy was in the right.

However, the two were from the same sect, and fighting between fellow disciples violated the sect's rules.

In the end, he decided to stop the kid first and let the sect's law Law Enforcement Hall handle the matter.

However, just as he was about to stop the little guy, he was simultaneously locked onto by two terrifying Divine Senses.

Xiao Changli stiffened slightly.

Then he realized that the two terrifying Golden Core Realm cultivators he had sensed earlier were not there by chance, but were the little guy's protectors!

This made Xiao Changli's scalp tingle.

What is the background of this little guy?

There are actually two Golden Core Realm cultivators protecting you?

Moreover, one of the two protectors was at the Late Golden Core stage, which already made him feel extremely troubled.

The other one was at the Peak Golden Core, just like him, which posed an even greater threat to him!

These two fellow cultivators at the Golden Core Realm are both top experts in their respective levels!

Such a person, in theory, should be treated as a core member and nurtured by any faction.

They're actually protecting a Mid-stage Qi Refining kid at the same time?!

Xiao Changli couldn't understand it at all.

Even the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect wouldn't do such a thing.

He even thought that even the Immortal Sect Holy Lands wouldn't waste their talent like this, right?

Under the Divine Sense of the two Golden Core experts, Xiao Changli ultimately dared not make any rash moves.

He watched helplessly as one of his fellow Daoists, Wang Da, burned the younger generation of the Li Household and his protectors to death.

Xiao Changli did not feel angry or resentful about this.

Ultimately, it was the younger generation of the Li Household who were courting death.

How dare you provoke someone who has two top-tier Golden Core cultivators as protectors?

Aren't they afraid of dragging the Li Household into the abyss?

His original intention in stepping forward was merely to uphold the sect's rules.

But now it seems that the power behind this little guy, who has two protectors of this caliber, is probably even more terrifying than the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect.

The rules of the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect were naturally not a constraint for him.

If they were to provoke them, it might bring Golden Rainbow Sword Sect enormous trouble.

The only thing he couldn't understand was: why would this kid, with his monstrous talent and powerful background, choose to cultivate at their Golden Rainbow Sword Sect?

And yet he's remained unknown, just staying at the outer gate?

If he hadn't stumbled upon this today, he would have had no idea that such a person was hidden within the sect.

Is it a test of the heart in the mortal world?

But isn't that too early?

What kind of mind does a Qi Refining Realm cultivator cultivate?

Xiao Changli couldn't understand. After hesitating for a moment, he turned to Mu Yunxue beside him and asked in a low voice, "Junior Martial Niece Mu, that junior nephew down there probably has a very unusual background. We've already been discovered. Should we go down?"

Having protected Mu Yunxue all these days, Xiao Changli to know this prodigy junior disciple's personality to some extent.

Mu Yunxue has a pure heart and a very firm desire to pursue the Dao.

Her mind was always calm and undisturbed, as if nothing in the world could move her.

But even now, Xiao Changli could still sense her emotional fluctuations.

Clearly, the performance of the junior apprentice below made even this exceptionally talented junior apprentice somewhat unable to remain calm.

This is probably what it feels like when one extraordinary genius sees another extraordinary genius?

Mu Yunxue nodded slightly, a barely perceptible hint of surprise flashing in her clear, icy eyes. "Yes, let's go down and take a look."

So the two of them flew down on their swords and landed in front of Lu Yang.

After greeting the two powerful Dao of Alchemy cultivators, Xiao Changli turned his attention to the incredibly handsome young man in front of him.

Upon closer inspection, Xiao Changli became even more certain of his previous deduction.

The boy seemed to be naturally close to the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and earth; standing there, he exuded a sense of harmony, blending seamlessly with his surroundings.

"I never imagined that my Golden Rainbow Sword Sect would harbor such a exceptionally talented young master."

Lu Yang became more wary after hearing Xiao Changli's words.

He never expected to run into Mu Yunxue and her protector here.

Just now, Wang Da's Divine Sense transmission told him that this gray-haired old man was at the peak of the Peak Golden Core stage.

Judging from this, Mu Yunxue is indeed highly regarded within the sect, as her protector is surprisingly strong.

It's likely that the fluctuations in Spiritual Qi from Wang Da and Wang San earlier attracted the two of them here.

However, Lu Yang wasn't too panicked.

This isn't inside the Golden Sun Mountain Range, and Li Yao was the one who started the whole thing, so he's in the right no matter what.

Judging from the sect elder's expression and tone, he didn't seem to be there to interrogate anyone.

Having figured this out, Lu Yang smiled slightly, his tone humble and composed. "Senior, you flatter me. I am just an ordinary cultivator."

Xiao Changli's lips twitched slightly as he listened to Lu Yang's words.

He's lived for four hundred years and has seen pretentious people, but he's never seen anyone pretentious like this.

They improved the Heavy Sword Instruction and Heavy Sword Technique, pushing these two fundamental Cultivation Method and Law Technique to a level that even their creators had not achieved.

He even began to comprehend the laws of Metal Dao and Sword Dao Principle at the Mid-stage Qi Refining.

You're telling me you're just an ordinary cultivator?

This guy is just an ordinary cultivator? Then what is he?

Is he an old good-for-nothing who's lived for four hundred years?
