Pity the Poor Egg Raisers of the World
Xiang Clan.
As Xiao Ye's voice faded.
Xiang Zhou's expression suddenly changed, staring intently at the smiling man, his eyes filled with disbelief.
How did this kid know it was him?!
On that day, to avoid any unnecessary trouble, he also concealed his presence.
Given the other party's level of skill and strength, it would be absolutely impossible for them to recognize it.
And now, they've even called him by his name!
While Xiang Zhou was stunned, everyone around him was also curious about what Xiao Ye had said.
"Judging from this, it seems there's some hidden story we don't know about."
"Xiang Qing, I remember he was also a powerful figure from the Xiang Clan, right? Did he threaten this Kong Mu? Why? It seems Kong Mu has a purpose in coming here."
"I'm curious, why would they threaten Kong Mu? Could it be that they already knew Kong Mu's strength was extraordinary? But that doesn't seem likely. If they really knew, they certainly wouldn't have let Xiang Li fight him."
Those with quick wit glanced at Shen Wenxi in the direction of the Academy, their expressions subtly shifting:
"Could it be because of Shen Wenxi?"
On the other side, Xiang Ge, who was furious, immediately changed his expression after hearing Xiao Ye's words.
A distant source of water cannot quench a nearby fire.
Even though the Xiang Clan has two great Saint Emperor to rely on, they are still unable to resolve the current situation.
The Academy is doing everything it can to prevent him from interfering in this matter.
However, admitting defeat is not an option that either the Xiang Clan or Xiang Li can easily consider.
Once they admit defeat, it will not only damage the reputation of the Xiang Clan, but also pose a great threat to their future strength.
In this situation, the conversation suddenly shifted to Xiang Zhou's side...
At that moment, Xiang Ge directly transmitted his voice to Xiang Zhou, saying:
Apologize to him, and this fight ends here.
Although unwilling to accept it, given the current situation, if they were to endure another tribulation lightning strike, it could cause extremely profound damage.
Sacrificing the small to save the large is a last resort.
As for this debt, there will be plenty of time to settle it later.
Right now, we must prioritize Xiang Li.
Although Xiang Zhou apologized, he would lose face, but although he was Xiang Clan Xiang Zhou, he was not Xiang Clan.
Upon hearing Xiang Zhou took a deep breath. He understood the implications and, though unwilling, had no other choice at the moment.
At that moment, he looked at Xiao Ye and said in a deep voice:
"What happened before was indeed my fault."
Let's leave it at that for today.
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions became somewhat strange.
The way he apologized sounded rather confident.
Xiao Ye didn't say anything, but simply looked up at the sky and then glanced at Xiang Li.
Xiang Zhou's apology came so quickly that even he was somewhat surprised.
Next came the power of the seventh tribulation lightning.
It's really not appropriate to waste any more energy on this matter.
Although he was indeed able to control the tribulation lightning to some extent with the help of the cultivation techniques provided by the system and the Thunder Holy Physique.
But tribulation lightning is still tribulation lightning.
At that moment, Xiao Ye moved to the other side of the field.
At the same time, pages of books fluttered around him as he dealt with the tribulation lightning.
Boom!
The seventh bolt of tribulation lightning crashed down, almost entirely purple, accompanied by an aura of destruction that sent shivers down everyone's spines.
The instant the lightning struck, purple light instantly engulfed the entire arena.
On the arena, Xiang Li, who was near the edge, was kicked out of the arena as if he had been kicked out of thin air.
Xiang Ge and Murong Xi set off immediately to meet Xiang Li.
At this moment, no one's attention was on Xiang Li; everyone was staring in utter shock at the tribulation lightning and the tribulation clouds in the sky.
"Seven paths have already been cleared, and they show no signs of dissipating."
"Back then, Xiang Li's Saint Tribulation only had eight tribulations, right? Judging from the number alone, Kong Mu's tribulation lightning is no less than Xiang Li's."
"You're only right to say that when the two of them haven't fought. Don't forget that Kong Mu obtained the Saint Emperor's inheritance, and based on the strength and methods he just displayed, he's in no way inferior to Xiang Li."
"The power of this tribulation lightning is truly excessive. If it were me, I probably wouldn't know how to deal with it. I must say, Kong Mu is really fierce. While others quietly find a secluded place to undergo tribulation, afraid of being disturbed, he, on the contrary..."
As the group chatted and reflected, they shared their thoughts.
The light of the seventh tribulation lightning had begun to dissipate.
Xiao Ye remained standing on the arena.
Compared to before, there was a noticeable surge of blood energy around him, and at a glance, his entire body was significantly redder than before.
However, judging from the aura, there was no significant fluctuation; on the contrary, the aura was much more solid than at the beginning of the Lightning Tribulation.
Such a relaxed demeanor made all the prodigies from various factions present feel immense pressure.
The Saint Lightning Tribulation is a touchstone; it strengthens you when you are weak and weakens you when you are strong.
Seeing Kong Mu's current situation, and reflecting on my own past...
Honestly, there are some things I can't compare to.
On the other side.
Lu Changzhi was also paying close attention to Xiao Ye's condition under the tribulation lightning.
Defeating Xiang Li was just a minor skirmish; the Lightning Tribulation was the most important matter.
The tribulation lightning that Xiao Ye is currently experiencing is far more powerful than that of ordinary tribulation lightning.
If Xiao Ye were to swallow it whole, even he would inevitably experience stress and injury.
However, that's not the case.
Xiao Ye is not only using the tribulation lightning to try and strengthen himself, but he is also raising a dragon.
"The egg farmers of this world are truly pitiful."
Lu Changzhi gently shook his head.
Xiao Ye is now personally enduring the blows to secure resources for the Thunder Dragon.
In comparison, his own Black Tortoise egg was far less troublesome.
However, with the Thunder Dragon sharing the burden, there shouldn't be any major problems with this Saint Tribulation Lightning.
Lu Changzhi looked toward where Xiang Li was.
Beside Xiang Li, Murong Xi's face was filled with anger and hatred; it was clear at a glance that she was no easy opponent.
In comparison, even Xiang Ge's reaction seemed rather weak.
However, this was within his expectations, so it wasn't too surprising.
Just now, Ancestor Liang Si transmitted a message saying that all the important figures had come and were waiting for the right opportunity to appear.
Adding our own forces, the Huang Clan and Lu Yuan, that should be enough.
Of course, for now, we should wait for the Lightning Tribulation to end.
At this moment, within the clouds of calamity.
The eighth tribulation lightning bolt began to brew wildly.
Purple lightning filled the tribulation clouds, gathering wildly and finally condensing into a terrifying purple tribulation lightning bolt that suddenly crashed down.
Under the overwhelming power of the tribulation lightning, even with the intervention of powerful figures from the Academy, the sheer force of the lightning still caused most of those present to tremble with fear.
"That's the difference between people."
Some people looked at Xiao Ye, who appeared incredibly small under the lightning, and were filled with emotion.
Seeing is believing. Now that I have seen it with my own eyes, I know that there are indeed people in this world who are fearless in the face of Lightning Tribulation and deal with it accordingly.
The eighth bolt of tribulation lightning passed.
The calamity clouds above still hadn't dissipated.
Countless hearts skipped a beat.
Will breaking through to the Saint Realm attract nine tribulation lightning bolts?
It seems like this hasn't happened in a long time, has it?
However, upon further reflection, some people gently shook their heads.
"That's true. The Myriad Laws Saint Emperor's legacy has been unchallenged for so many years, yet he managed to obtain it. Nine tribulation lightning strikes don't seem like much of a problem."
