Chi Jiuyu's Little Prank

It was no wonder True Monarch Purple Universe hesitated; after all, it had taken only a few seconds from the moment that Dao Integration Old Devil let out a scream to his aura vanishing entirely.

This was a Dao Integration expert, a figure who could be considered a pillar of strength even within the Immortal Sect.

At this moment, True Monarch Purple Universe suddenly recalled the words True Person Xiaoning had used to persuade him—words he had originally refused to believe.

Could this ancient cultivator who had just come out of seclusion... truly be one of the four great elders of the Sword Sect or some supreme-level old monster?

But if he were truly an old monster of that caliber, how could that Dao Integration Old Devil have escaped from his hands?

He still had to go and see.

With a flash of purple light, True Monarch Purple Universe vanished from above the clouds.

He was acting according to the rules; even if it were a sword-cultivating old monster of that level, would he really lay a hand on him?

At Xuanyue Tower, the young master and his two subordinates walked out the front door.

They were preparing to turn themselves in. What the three of them had done was not inherently serious; at most, they would be thrown into the dungeon.

Besides, with the mitigating factor of a voluntary surrender, they might even get a few days shaved off their sentence.

Sigh.

He hoped that after getting out of the Law Enforcement Hall's dungeon, he would have a bit more luck.

"Three little devil spawn, you managed to fool me before."

Within a faint wisp of purple energy, the figure of True Monarch Purple Universe emerged.

No way?

Again!

Will this ever end!

The young master wailed in his heart, but his actions were extremely decisive, not caring whether there were people around.

Thump!

As he knelt, he spoke rapidly: "Senior, spare our lives! The three of us have already been taught a lesson and are currently on our way to the Law Enforcement Hall to surrender!"

Already taught a lesson?

True Monarch Purple Universe's heart stirred. "Which fellow Daoist did you encounter earlier?"

"It was..." The young master just wanted to say it, but his mind suddenly went blank.

In his memory, only two blurry figures remained; he could not remember who they were or what had happened at all.

"I don't remember."

Hm?

Vast soul power condensed into fine threads, probing directly into the souls of the three people before him to search their memories.

After a search, he found miscellaneous things like simulated soul cultivation and refining swords with resentment, but the images he actually wanted to see were not there.

Their memories had been tampered with.

"You may go."

Although these three were of the demonic path, they had not yet committed any heinous acts, and True Monarch Purple Universe did not intend to make things difficult for three Nascent Soul juniors.

After the three left, True Monarch Purple Universe took a step forward, and as a purple light flared, he entered the massive laboratory beneath Xuanyue Tower.

A few minutes later, having gained nothing, True Monarch Purple Universe returned to the surface and transformed into a streak of purple light, fleeing toward the horizon.

Meanwhile, inside the school.

Zhang Yunlu finally welcomed her opponent once again—Fang Lin, who was clutching a black battle saber.

"I admit I underestimated you before. You are indeed not comparable to those students who are as fragile as lambs."

His voice was not quiet, and many students heard him, glaring at him with anger.

Fang Lin drew his battle saber, tossing the scabbard directly off the arena; the pitch-black blade appeared exceptionally heavy.

"Therefore, I will use my full strength to defeat you."

Zhang Yunlu blinked, feeling a bit confused. Why did this person start spouting inexplicable nonsense the moment he arrived?

"So much chatter. If it were me, I would have just slashed at him immediately!" In the spectator stands, Chi Jiuyu was also complaining.

Talking big before even winning—either he had a hole in his head, or he couldn't recognize his own standing.

"Almost forgot!" She slapped her forehead and hurriedly took her phone out of her pocket.

[You have 5 unread messages]

The person who sent the messages was 'My Most Respected Master'. She had just set it to silent mode, so she hadn't heard them.

"How did you run into a Dao Integration expert again?"

"Your martial uncle should have discovered it; wait where you are for a moment."

The next message came half a minute later.

"How is it? Has your Martial Uncle arrived yet?"

"Answer me quickly!"

"/Angry"

Chi Jiuyu: "..."

How come you're never this concerned about me usually?

"Martial Uncle, does Master not know about our situation here?"

"Hmm, my current state is somewhat special, so your Senior Sister cannot divine my location, and you are affected by extension."

Oh!!

So that was it.

Chi Jiuyu's eyes lit up; no wonder Master kept sending messages over.

Seizing the rare opportunity, she hurriedly typed.

"I'm still being hunted, Master."

The message had barely gone through when a reply came immediately from the other side.

"Bullshit! Those two small fries can hunt you? Besides, I can't see your situation, so your Martial Uncle must be right by your side. You dare lie to me? It sounds like your skin is itching for a beating."

Her typing speed was terrifying.

Ah... this, this, this!

She had been exposed directly. Chi Jiuyu felt her scalp tingle; when Master said she would beat her, she meant it!

If she had known, she wouldn't have been so cheeky.

"Let me speak to your Senior Sister." Xu Xing took the phone from her hand. "You focus on watching the test."

"I was just joking earlier, Martial Uncle, you must help me explain it to Master!"

"Rest assured."

I will certainly say it, but whether she listens or not is another matter entirely.

Hearing Xu Xing's promise, Chi Jiuyu finally felt a bit more at ease.

Looking up at the central arena, Zhang Yunlu had already begun exchanging blows with Fang Lin.

Because of what Fang Lin had said at the start, she had been quite cautious, but after testing him with two moves, she realized... it seemed he was just so-so?

Compared to the previous challengers, he was naturally a bit stronger, and his blade technique was quite sharp, but he couldn't compare to those phantoms in the trials at all!

Hmm...

Forget it, I'll just knock him off quickly. If this drags on, I'm afraid this arena will give some nasty commentary.

Zhang Yunlu really couldn't trust this arena with its honey-coated mouth.

"As expected, you are different from the others! But this is where it ends!" Fang Lin let out a low roar.

He leaned forward slightly, gripping his blade with both hands.

Step! Strike!

A white radiance surged from the blade's edge, heading straight for Zhang Yunlu.

Blade Aura!

Since he was young, he had always been number one.

On the Starry Sky Battlefield, he had famous masters to teach him, could fight captured alien creatures to hone his blade techniques, and never lacked for all kinds of medicinal pills!

This time, he should be number one as well!

This Zhang Yunlu was nothing more than a stepping stone for him to climb to greater heights!

Watching the incoming Blade Aura, Zhang Yunlu tilted her body slightly, dodging it in an extremely narrow fashion.

"It's not over yet!"

Two more streaks of Blade Aura tore through the air!

Three streaks of Blade Aura, the blade technique had reached minor completion!

Fang Lin's figure rushed toward Zhang Yunlu along with those two streaks of Blade Aura; clearly, he wanted to decide the outcome with this move.

Zhang Yunlu did not dodge or evade, raising her sword to meet him; the blade vanished the moment she swung it.

When it reappeared, two streaks of Sword Aura collided with the Blade Aura, dissipating into nothingness, while the remaining five streaks of Sword Aura headed straight for Fang Lin.

Seven streaks of Sword Aura, the sword technique had reached perfection!

This was a strike with her full effort. In the trials, she had died several times due to carelessness, so she knew quite well that holding back was being irresponsible toward her own life!

The Sword Aura drew closer and closer; Fang Lin was unable to dodge.

Soon, a white light filled his vision. When his sight recovered, he found that he was already standing outside the arena.

Lost?

Fang Lin's expression was somewhat dazed.

In the spectator stands, Chi Jiuyu let out a yawn.

That sword technique was actually quite decent, rather insidious, especially that sudden disappearance.

[Defender, rated as Excellent]

That was truly simple; is it because they've said it too many times and run out of words?

[Challenger, despite being piled high with resources, is smug over a minor-success blade technique; truly a frog in a well, a clown jumping on a beam]

This time, the insult wasn't too excessive; after all, his performance was indeed better than the others.

Fang Lin listened in a stupor, and it was only after a long while that he slowly stepped forward, retrieved his scabbard, and retreated in silence.
