Even a Fart Makes a Sound, but You Old Fellow Didn't Make a Peep

"Roll!"

Upon hearing Qin Han's response, Dai Tianfeng's face darkened slightly, but he did not show it too obviously.

But if you look closely into the depths of his eyes, you will see a chilling aura that sends shivers down your spine.

Tell him to get out in front of so many people.

This is a blatant slap in the face to him.

If he knew the other party's identity, he would never allow them any possibility of entering the secret realm.

However, at this moment, there were still some concerns.

The other party's identity and strength.

Although he felt that such a thing was almost impossible, as a sword cultivator with a talent for swordsmanship, he could sense that the situation just now was not real.

Only those who cultivate the sword truly understand its power. If the opponent has truly reached that level, whether or not to make a move absolutely requires careful consideration.

To become the top of the Ten Great Prodigies is not something that can be achieved simply by possessing strength.

Dai Tianfeng neither made a move nor responded further.

This situation, however, made everyone understand.

"The commotion this person just caused was probably all real."

"This is unbelievable! Has Dai Tianfeng chickened out? It shouldn't be like this. He dared to tell him to get lost, but instead of taking action and teaching him a lesson, he just attacked directly?"

"For Dai Tianfeng to be so wary, the threat posed by this opponent must far exceed our expectations. Could it truly be at the level of a legendary Sword Master?"

Everyone was lost in thought, but they mostly kept their thoughts to themselves or communicated with each other through telepathy.

While it's fine to watch the excitement, this kind of thing shouldn't be discussed openly. Just because the person who told him to "get lost" isn't afraid of Dai Tianfeng doesn't mean they dare to disregard him.

Meanwhile, above Zither Sound Valley.

Gu Qingyang slowly opened his eyes. Two sharp sword lights flashed in the depths of his eyes, and then an excited expression appeared on his face.

"Derivative Sword Heart truly lives up to his reputation. At his original speed, it would have taken him who knows how long to take this step. But with the things Changzhi Zhili gave him, he took this step so easily."

After speaking, Gu Qingyang noticed the expressions of the elders around him and asked in confusion:

"Your reaction seems a bit strange. Did something unexpected happen during your breakthrough?"

After he finished speaking, an old ancestor looked over and said:

"Old Gu, you're really something else. When others break through, they make all sorts of noise, making it hard to ignore. But you, you haven't made a sound at all. Are you really planning to break through quietly behind everyone's back?"

"That's right." Another elder nodded in agreement.

"Even a fart needs to make a sound, but you old man, you don't make a sound at all. With such methods, are you going to secretly remain silent when you break through to the Saint Realm?"

Their words left Gu Qingyang completely bewildered. He said:

"What are you talking about? When I took that step out of the Sword Master's stance just now, it didn't make a sound?"

"There's a photo stone here, take a look for yourself."

An old ancestor flicked the image stone with his finger.

Gu Qingyang took it and probed into it with his mind.

Soon, the scenes recorded within it appeared one by one.

It was quiet and still until I opened my eyes and it ended.

"Huh?" Gu Qingyang's face showed deep confusion.

"That shouldn't be. Stepping into the Sword King caused quite a commotion, so how could the Sword Master be gone? And I could still feel it just now, how could this be?"

As he spoke, Gu Qingyang's expression shifted, and he looked at the group of people who had just spoken, saying:

"I see, you all teamed up to deceive me. You changed the content of the recording stone so quickly. Whose skills improved so fast?"

As Gu Qingyang spoke, the faces of all the elders around him revealed an expression that said, "Go on, I'll just watch you pretend."

"Clap clap clap." Thirty-eight raised his hand and clapped.

"What a brilliant move to turn the tables! After all these years, your acting skills haven't diminished at all. Your reaction just now was flawless."

"It's a pity." Thirty-eight paused.

"Even a thousand plans can go wrong, Qingyang. Next time you hide, remember to hide further away. You've given yourself away so easily, it's practically showing your hand in front of everyone. Your hiding was such a failure."

"What are you talking about?" Gu Qingyang's face was full of confusion.

"Alright, alright, that's enough, stop pretending." Another elder waved his hand.

"Teach everyone how you figured out this method when you have the chance, don't keep it to yourself."

Gu Qingyang looked at this and that, then looked helpless:

"I've only just broken through, and you're already trying to play riddles with me."

As soon as he finished speaking, another recording stone flew over, showing Gu Qingyang the commotion that had just occurred in the Zither Sound Valley below.

"What kind of method is this?!" Gu Qingyang was incredulous.

How come all the special effects I created are going to the other side?

Unheard of! Absolutely unheard of!

The final, resounding sword cry convinced him that the power originated from him.

The fluctuations I caused somehow ended up affecting someone else.

Gu Qingyang was thinking to himself when he suddenly remembered something.

"If the tribulation lightning could also be directed at others..."

Upon having this thought, Gu Qingyang felt a jolt in his mind.

He would break through to the next level, then redirect the Lightning Tribulation to his enemies, letting them benefit while he enjoyed the good fortune.

This is absolutely fantastic!

"But..." A thoughtful look appeared between Gu Qingyang's brows.

How exactly did this situation occur?

"Could it be Changzhi?"

For some reason, if it were in the past, he might have directly dismissed this guess.

But now, he found this speculation somewhat plausible.

After all, based on experience, it seems like there's nothing that Changzhi isn't capable of.

While the elders of the Five Symbols Sect were conversing above, the Zither Sound Valley below also became a bit more lively.

Of course, this is only in comparison to the eerie silence that had just occurred.

Qin Han did not choose to leave, even though Hua Yunfan reminded him that he should go, otherwise if things were exposed, it might cause trouble. However, he had finally gotten such an opportunity, and even though he hadn't achieved his goal, he still had to think of a way.

Hua Yunfan didn't say anything more about this.

Stubborn people can't be persuaded.

What just happened, in her opinion, was a very irrational act.

This guy always says "I won't offend others unless they offend me," but now, because of a woman's setback, he actually tells Dai Tianfeng to get lost.

It's true, they won't pick the soft persimmon, they insist on choosing the hard one, which happens to be one with thorns.

Luckily, I had intimidated them enough to make them wary, otherwise I would be cleaning up their mess now.

Fortunately, barring any unforeseen circumstances, they should be able to leave safely thanks to the deterrent effect.

On the other hand, everyone knew that even Dai Tianfeng's questioning had resulted in a scolding, so they didn't want to invite trouble upon themselves.

For a moment, my attention began to shift.

Of course, the main conversation revolved around the scene they had just witnessed.

Zither Sound Valley, located on the outer perimeter.

Liu Qingyan recovered from the shock of the Sword Intent. With her strength, even though the Sword Intent had dissipated for quite some time, it was still breathtaking, making people breathe rapidly as if they were facing a great crisis, their chests heaving violently.

Her impressive assets rippled beneath her tight, concealing clothing.

This immediately caused those nearby to stop their discussion and cast their intense gazes.

Feeling the man's gaze, Liu Qingyan stopped thinking about the Sword Intent from before, and instead sat up straight, placing her hands on the long zither in front of her.

Keep playing the piano!

She wanted to continue enjoying the attention and being the center of attention.
