"You, a mere mortal, can be a Master to the Taiyin Body? You'll be a laughingstock if you say that."
Yunyang let out a cold laugh. Then, he spread his legs, pointed below his crotch, and said with a sinister grin, "Come on, crawl through here, and I'll spare your life."
The next moment, Yunyang was sent flying backward, crashing heavily to the ground.
"You're asking for death!"
Yunyang, clutching his swollen face, stood up and glared at Li Zhōujūn with bloodshot eyes. "I'm going to kill you!"
Just as Yunyang was about to unleash his Foundation Establishment aura, he was stopped by his father, the Golden Sun Holy Lord.
The Golden Sun Holy Lord looked at Li Zhōujūn, his eyes narrowed. "Your Excellency, beating my son in front of me is perhaps not appropriate."
"What's not appropriate?" Li Zhōujūn smiled. "You're not disciplining him properly, so I'll discipline your son for you. Any problem? No problem."
"Hmph, hmph." The Golden Sun Holy Lord let out a few cold laughs but didn't rush to attack.
This was because he couldn't see through the young man at all. It was highly possible that this young man's cultivation was also at the Integration Stage.
"Your Excellency, I, Yun, will definitely take this woman away today. If you intend to stop me, don't blame me for being impolite," the Golden Sun Holy Lord, Yun Lietian, said to Li Zhōujūn.
"Heh heh." Li Zhōujūn let out a light, carefree laugh.
"It seems a battle is unavoidable today," the Golden Sun Holy Lord said, unleashing an extremely powerful pressure that poured down on Li Zhōujūn like a storm.
As the Golden Sun Holy Lord's pressure spread, the pedestrians by the river could no longer withstand it and fled.
At the same time, Li Zhōujūn's green shirt fluttered in the wind under the oppressive aura.
Yet, he remained calm, like a mountain standing firm against the waves.
Lu Zhining silently took in the scene, her heart filled with emotion. She hadn't expected Li Zhōujūn to be willing to offend a mighty Integration Stage cultivator for her.
"Father, kill him!"
Beside them, Yunyang, with his swollen face, shouted at his father, the Golden Sun Holy Lord.
The Golden Sun Holy Lord remained silent, merely watching Li Zhōujūn, who appeared completely unfazed.
"Make your move," Li Zhōujūn said.
Without further ado, the Golden Sun Holy Lord unleashed his signature technique, the Blazing Sun Fist.
With a punch, he unleashed rolling waves of heat, as if transforming into a small sun, charging towards Li Zhōujūn. The terrifying power actually evaporated more than half of the river water.
Seeing this, Li Zhōujūn, while protecting Lu Zhining, raised one hand...
A dull thud echoed.
Li Zhōujūn had effortlessly caught the Golden Sun Holy Lord's punch.
"How is this possible?!"
The Golden Sun Holy Lord gasped in disbelief.
The power of his punch was such that even cultivators at the same Integration Stage wouldn't dare to face it head-on. Yet, this young man in the green shirt had caught it with a raised hand. Just what was this young man's cultivation level?
In a mere moment.
Thousands of thoughts flashed through the Golden Sun Holy Lord's mind.
"I wonder who Your Excellency is. With your strength, you should have long been famous throughout Qingzhou," the Golden Sun Holy Lord retracted his fist and looked at Li Zhōujūn cautiously, asking.
"Dao Tian Sect, Cloud Dwelling Mountain Lord, Li Zhōujūn," Li Zhōujūn, too lazy to play coy, directly revealed his name.
"Cloud Dwelling Mountain Lord?!"
Upon hearing this, the Golden Sun Holy Lord's eyes widened instantly.
Could this young man be the one who had killed the Integration Stage perfect realm Crimson Eyed Demon Lord, Chu Fan, with a single punch a while ago? The one hailed as the youngest Tribulation Stage cultivator of the Dao Tian Sect?
Thinking of this, the Golden Sun Holy Lord's expression darkened. He had actually offended this esteemed individual. But didn't he usually travel in a Nine Dragon Chariot?
At the same time, Lu Zhining's eyes widened in disbelief.
Her Master was actually the Cloud Dwelling Mountain Lord of the Dao Tian Sect?!
Lu Zhining naturally knew of the Dao Tian Sect.
It was the foremost sect in Qingzhou.
Furthermore, the name of the Cloud Dwelling Mountain Lord had long been known to all. As the saying went, "Nine Dragon Wind Riding Chariot, Green Shirt Free and Easy Robe," many people in Qingzhou could recite this line.
And she had inexplicably become a disciple of the Cloud Dwelling Mountain Lord. Thinking of this, Lu Zhining's breathing quickened.
"Cloud Dwelling Mountain Lord?!"
At this moment, Yunyang, whose face was swollen like a bun, also turned pale. He too knew of the Cloud Dwelling Mountain Lord's deeds. He looked at Li Zhōujūn in disbelief and said, "How could the Cloud Dwelling Mountain Lord be here?! Also, the Cloud Dwelling Mountain Lord usually travels in a Nine Dragon Chariot. How dare you impersonate the Cloud Dwelling Mountain Lord, aren't you afraid of being executed by the experts of the Dao Tian Sect?!"
Li Zhōujūn's mouth twitched. This foolish child, did he expect him to prove he was himself?
"Yunyang, do not be disrespectful!" the Golden Sun Holy Lord said sternly.
He knew that the person before him was not lying and was likely the true Cloud Dwelling Mountain Lord.
"Mountain Lord, I have failed to discipline my son. I beg for your forgiveness. I will educate my son properly when we return," the Golden Sun Holy Lord cupped his fists towards Li Zhōujūn.
After speaking, the Golden Sun Holy Lord berated Yunyang, "Why aren't you coming forward to apologize to the Mountain Lord and the Direct Disciple?!"
Yunyang felt a little unwilling when he heard this.
But seeing his father's stern expression, he also knew that this young man was most likely the real Cloud Dwelling Mountain Lord.
Thinking that he had offended the youngest Tribulation Stage cultivator in Qingzhou, Yunyang's face turned pale.
After all, rumors said the Cloud Dwelling Mountain Lord had cultivated to the Tribulation Stage at just forty years old.
But even with another thirty years, he might not be able to cultivate to the Void Immortal stage.
Therefore, Yunyang looked at Li Zhōujūn and Lu Zhining with some trepidation and said, "Mountain Lord, and Direct Disciple Lu, I'm sorry, I was wrong."
"Alright, I can consider today's events a farce and let it end here. But from now on, you must promise me one thing," Li Zhōujūn said.
"Okay," the Golden Sun Holy Lord agreed without hesitation.
He might die if he refused.
But if he didn't agree and angered this Cloud Dwelling Mountain Lord, he might die right now.
"You can leave now," Li Zhōujūn waved his hand.
"Cloud Dwelling Mountain Lord, farewell," the Golden Sun Holy Lord said, relieved.
Then, he took his son and left the place dejectedly.
"Thank you, Master, for your intervention," Lu Zhining said to Li Zhōujūn with reverence.
Li Zhōujūn smiled, "There's no need to be so polite with your Master. By the way, you have an elder martial sister. You two should get along well when we get back."
"This disciple understands," Lu Zhining nodded.
"It seems we can't continue our outing today. Those father and son from the Golden Sun Sect are such a buzzkill," Li Zhōujūn said helplessly, looking at the empty riverside.
"Go back and say your goodbyes to your family today. We'll return to the Dao Tian Sect tomorrow," Li Zhōujūn told Lu Zhining.
"Okay," Lu Zhining replied softly, feeling a little reluctant. But if her grandfather, father, and mother knew that her Master was the Cloud Dwelling Mountain Lord of the Dao Tian Sect, they should be very happy, right?
