Identity Revealed

Xiang Tian suddenly felt tired. He had no desire to play with them anymore. In this world, people without a background were always at the mercy of others.

Ning Rong was stunned when she heard Xiang Tian's words, her beautiful eyes widening. "What, are you referring to Changning Immortal King? I hope you understand that Changning Immortal King valuing you doesn't mean he'll protect you forever."

"I'll say this one last time. Whether it's Sky Crystal or a magic treasure, just say the word, and we'll be even. I don't want to lay hands on a girl."

This was Xiang Tian's last bit of tolerance, but Ning Rong only felt that Xiang Tian's previous words were meant to scare her.

Did she lack these things called Sky Crystals and magic treasures? In his eyes, these items were like plain food and coarse tea, failing to pique even the slightest interest in her.

Ning Rong drew her sword and pointed it at Xiang Tian. "Since you're like this, I'll have to take action myself!"

Since Ning Rong was being stubborn, Xiang Tian decided not to hold back any longer. Facing the attacking Ning Rong, Xiang Tian didn't even bother to dodge.

The students watching from the sidelines were engrossed in the drama, while Qiu Changfeng and the other instructors were so anxious they were scratching their heads, wishing they could break through the barrier with their foreheads.

It was clear that this barrier was brought by Ning Rong from the Jade Pool. Even the strongest among them, Qiu Changfeng, who was only at the True Immortal realm, couldn't break it.

Everyone held their breath. Although they didn't know what feud existed between Xiang Tian and Ning Rong, the very fact that these two were fighting was an opportunity that rarely presented itself. They couldn't help but focus their attention.

However, no one saw how Xiang Tian did it. In an instant, he had changed positions, and Ning Rong was directly grabbed by the neck and lifted up.

Her originally delicate and beautiful face instantly turned pale. Ning Rong couldn't comprehend how Xiang Tian had done it. One moment he was in front of her, and the next he was holding her up.

She had a momentary illusion, as if she were stretching her neck out for Xiang Tian to grab.

Xiang Tian's face seemed to be covered in frost. Ning Rong was still struggling, and she discovered in terror that she couldn't mobilize her spiritual energy at all, as if she had been sealed.

"You... you let me go quickly."

She was already struggling to breathe. Xiang Tian suddenly swung his left arm, and the barrier Ning Rong had set up with her magic treasure shattered.

Immediately, the exclamations and noise from the students outside rushed in. In fact, they had already exploded the moment Xiang Tian subdued Ning Rong.

"Is Xiang Tian crazy? Ning Rong is a descendant of the Queen Mother of the West!"

"Look at his expression, he's probably lost his temper. I wonder what's going on between those two."

"Student Sinan Yao is really unlucky. Look, he was directly knocked unconscious by Xiang Tian's swing just now."

Below, there was a cacophony of voices. Qiu Changfeng, however, was trembling with fear. He went straight onto the stage and looked at Xiang Tian. Both of them were individuals who could not afford even the slightest mistake.

"Student Xiang Tian, please calm down. If Ning Rong has made a mistake, we can discuss it together and mediate properly."

Even though Ning Rong was in Xiang Tian's hands, she became even more furious upon hearing Qiu Changfeng say she had made a mistake, and directly screamed, "Why is it my fault? This guy was clearly in the wrong first!"

The entire venue fell silent. Everyone wanted to understand the reason behind it.

But Xiang Tian directly slammed her down in front of everyone.

"Ah!"

With a pained cry, Xiang Tian showed no mercy and smashed her directly onto the ground, causing cracks to appear on the surface.

Everyone's hearts were in their throats, including Qiu Changfeng.

Had this Xiang Tian truly gone mad? Not to mention the deterrence of the Jade Pool, but could you really be so ruthless to a beauty like Ning Rong?

Xiang Tian's eyes already held a murderous intent. At this moment, Ning Rong suddenly felt afraid.

"I've given you many chances. I was in the wrong first, and I accidentally saw half of your body. What compensation do you want? I can give it to you."

"You think your body is precious and insist that I gouge out my eyes? But who gave you the courage? Just a small Jade Pool? Let alone seeing your body, do you believe me if I say I'll strip you naked and assault you right now, and the Jade Pool won't dare to say a single word?"

The entire place was so quiet you could hear a pin drop, with only the sound of slight breathing. No one dared to discuss it further, simply because Xiang Tian's words were too shocking.

Xiang Tian accidentally saw Ning Rong's body?

Fine, they had this juicy gossip. And Xiang Tian actually claimed that even if he assaulted Ning Rong, the Jade Pool wouldn't dare to do anything to him?

He wasn't afraid of the Queen Mother of the West, a dignified Immortal King. What was this Xiang Tian's identity?

In fact, Qiu Changfeng was also startled by these words. The Immortal King had vaguely revealed to him that Xiang Tian's identity was unusual, but he hadn't expected him to be so powerful that he wasn't afraid of the Jade Pool.

Ning Rong's eyes widened, her head buzzing. How could this man utter such shameless words?

Isn't a girl's purity important? Was she in the wrong?

She wasn't wrong, and Xiang Tian wasn't wrong. She wanted to protect her purity, while Xiang Tian just wanted to save his eyes.

"Xiang Tian, you must calm down. Listen to the Dean."

Qiu Changfeng still tried his best to persuade him.

Xiang Tian glanced at Ning Rong again. "If you're not convinced, feel free to let your Jade Pool people come. If one comes, they'll die. If a pair comes, they'll both die!"

After speaking, he waved his sleeve, and Ning Rong was sent flying out. Fortunately, an instructor quickly intervened and caught her.

The matter was hastily concluded, and the entire academy was once again shrouded in an inexplicable atmosphere.

In the office, Qiu Changfeng looked somewhat haggard. The events of today were completely unexpected. These two incidents were enough to push the entire Changning Immortal Academy to the forefront.

Suddenly, a flash of light appeared, and Changning Immortal King reappeared. His expression remained calm, as if at his level, nothing could cause his emotions to fluctuate.

Seeing the Immortal King's sudden arrival, Qiu Changfeng quickly bowed in greeting.

"I know everything that happened today, so don't overthink it."

The Immortal King smiled slightly and sat down.

Qiu Changfeng stood respectfully beside him and bowed again, "I have disappointed you, Immortal King."

Changning Immortal King, upon hearing this, simply shook his head. He didn't respond to Qiu Changfeng's words but continued on his own, "You know, my cultivation aptitude wasn't very good. At twenty years old, I was only at the Foundation Establishment stage. In the Heavenly Realm, cultivators at twenty would commonly be Nascent Soul or Golden Core, and even many were at the Soul Transformation stage. At that time, my path to the Great Dao seemed bleak..."

Qiu Changfeng was puzzled, not understanding why the Immortal King would tell him these things.

The Immortal King's expression seemed filled with nostalgia. "It was one afternoon, the weather was beautiful. I was exploring a canyon when I encountered a woman being persecuted. I acted chivalrously and intervened, but unfortunately, I was no match and was beaten half to death."

"At that moment, I thought I was going to die. But suddenly, a traveling young woman saw me. It was she who killed the assailant and saved the woman. She merely pointed at me casually and then floated away."

"As for me, it was like a sudden enlightenment. From then on, I encountered one fortunate encounter after another, and my cultivation progressed smoothly, leading me to where I am today."

After listening, Qiu Changfeng was completely stunned. The world of cultivators was not short of fortunate encounters, but the Immortal King's experience was truly astonishing. To be able to improve cultivation aptitude with just a casual gesture was utterly unbelievable!

"A while ago, my benefactor suddenly appeared and said she wanted her younger brother to study here. Upon meeting her again, I realized I still couldn't see through her realm or cultivation."

As soon as Changning Immortal King finished speaking, Qiu Changfeng understood everything.

Xiang Tian's identity remained a mystery, but a very clear message had been conveyed to him: Changning Immortal King would always stand behind Xiang Tian, and the one behind Xiang Tian was even more terrifying.
