Eternal Sacred King

2174 Sacrifice

On the Sword Discourse Arena.

When he heard Pang Yu’s words, Elder Teng’s Essence Spirit that was escaping suddenly paused.

First, his eyes were filled with confusion. Thereafter, as though he understood something, his face suddenly turned menacing and terrifying with a frenzied expression!

“The dignity of a Heaven Immortal is not to be humiliated!”

Suddenly, Elder Teng shrieked, “Su Zimo, I’ll fight you to the death!”

The moment he said that, a violent spirit consciousness fluctuation burst forth from the Sword Discourse Arena.

“Essence Spirit secret skill!”

The cultivators were shocked and exclaimed.

“How dare you!”

Yang Ruoxu’s expression changed starkly as he finally understood what Pang Yu meant by that.

He was reminding Elder Teng to fight with his life!

Apart from supreme divine powers, the strongest methods of Heaven Immortal experts were also Essence Spirit secret skills.

Yang Ruoxu wanted to save Su Zimo right away.

However, although his cultivation realm was high and he was strong, it was already too late by the time he realized it.

The speed at which Essence Spirit secret skills were condensed and released was so fast that bystanders could not interfere at all.

Even Su Zimo who was on the Sword Discourse Arena did not seem to be able to react to it, let alone the bystanders. He stood motionlessly in midair, rooted to the spot.

Elder Teng’s Essence Spirit secret skill transformed into a streak of light and arrived instantly, entering Su Zimo’s glabella!

“It’s over!”

Princess Scarlet Rainbow’s body swayed slightly with a pained expression.

Up till this point of her cultivation, she had encountered countless paragons and monster incarnates. However, Su Zimo gave her the most special feeling.

This was a man that she admired and was curious about.

Unfortunately, such a rare paragon and monster incarnate who dared to fight against Prince Yuan Zuo, the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom and Zither Immortal Meng Yao would die on the Sword Discourse Arena of Heaven and Earth Academy just like that.

In Heaven and Earth Academy, fellow sect mates were not allowed to fight to the death.

However, Su Zimo was now assaulted by a Heaven Immortal with an Essence Spirit secret skill.

For a paragon, such a death would be way too aggrieved and unfair.

It was as dazzling as a meteor, leaving a resplendent mark in the night sky but dying instantly.

“Sigh!”

A series of sighs sounded from the crowd.

The scene of Su Zimo destroying Elder Teng’s body consecutively earlier on was way too shocking for the outer sect disciples and caused their blood to boil.

To think that Su Zimo would end up in such a state in the blink of an eye.

“What a pity.”

“Given his talent, potential and methods, his future accomplishments are immeasurable. However…”

“It’s nothing much. Throughout history, there have been countless paragons and monster incarnates. Most of them died prematurely and he’s only one of them.”

Some felt pity, some were sad, some were cold and some were happy.

The fickleness of human nature was part of it.

“Pang Yu!”

Yang Ruoxu was enraged and shouted without addressing him as senior brother, “Aren’t you way too vicious?!”

“He has only joined the academy for a thousand years and hasn’t committed any mistakes. How dare you instruct a Heaven Immortal to kill him on the Sword Discourse Arena with an Essence Spirit secret skill. Are you still human?!”

Yang Ruoxu’s skin color was similar to bronze. In his rage, his blood qi surged and his entire face darkened, looking like an enraged Vajra that was extremely terrifying!

Although Elder Teng was the one who was trying to kill Su Zimo, Yang Ruoxu knew that the root of this matter was Pang Yu!

While Elder Teng might be alive right now, he was already a dead man.

According to the rules of the academy, it was a serious crime to use an Essence Spirit secret skill on the Sword Discourse Arena.

Furthermore, Elder Teng did it against a fellow sect mate!

Yang Ruoxu knew very well that the mastermind behind Su Zimo’s death was Pang Yu who seemed like he was not involved at all!

“Fufu,”

Pang Yu chuckled smugly.

The more enraged Yang Ruoxu was, the happier he was.

Pang Yu shrugged his shoulders slightly and gave a perfect guileless look. “Junior Brother Yang, there are some things that you can’t spout nonsense about.”

“When have I ever instructed Elder Teng to use any Essence Spirit secret skill to kill Su Zimo?”

Yang Ruoxu clenched his fists and grit his teeth. He did not say anything and merely glared at Pang Yu.

Pang Yu had a calm expression as he said leisurely, “Everyone witnessed the fight on the Sword Discourse Arena today. All the cultivators present can vouch for me.”

Yang Ruoxu was furious and even wanted to attack Pang Yu immediately.

However, he knew that there was no reason for him to attack.

Pang Yu was way too smart.

Earlier on, Pang Yu did not explicitly instruct Elder Teng to use his Essence Spirit secret skill or kill Su Zimo with his words.

Without leaving any stains on himself, he made use of Elder Teng to kill Su Zimo.

“Pang Yu!”

Yang Ruoxu grit his teeth and said coldly, “I know that some of you in the inner sect have always looked down on me and tried all means to suppress me.”

This was no secret.

Not only in the inner sect, even disciples of the outer sect could tell something was amiss.

Yang Ruoxu came from the lower worlds and was ostracized in the academy to begin with.

Furthermore, he was an upright person and did not know how to be tactful. Naturally, he was gradually isolated by many inner sect disciples.

However, Yang Ruoxu relied on his own hard work to grow in adversity and advance against the odds, gradually entering the top ten of the inner sect disciples.

Later on, he even represented the academy to head to Coiling Dragon Mountain Range to host the Immortal Sect Selections and recruit disciples.

Although this matter made him famous in the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain, he attracted even more hostility in the academy.

Under normal circumstances, Yang Ruoxu should not be the inner sect disciple representing the academy.

There were at least five people in the academy who were superior to Yang Ruoxu in terms of combat strength, status and background.

Pang Yu was included among the five of them.

It was easy to imagine the hostility that Yang Ruoxu received within the inner sect.

Although both parties had some conflicts and could not stand it, they were at Heaven and Earth Academy after all. At the very least, on the surface, things were still calm and they rarely fought or fell out.

It was only until a thousand years ago at the Immortal Sect Selection when some rumors about Fairy Mo Qing and Yang Ruoxu spread that the peace was broken.

Those rumors pushed Yang Ruoxu into the center of the storm!

For the past thousand years, Yang Ruoxu had sparred with inner sect disciples on the Sword Discourse Arena as well.

Su Zimo was also an important person in the Immortal Sect Selection a thousand years ago. He came from the lower worlds like Yang Ruoxu and was protected by the latter.

That was the reason why Pang Yu and the others shifted their gazes towards Su Zimo.

Pang Yu had once informed Elder Teng to find an opportunity to teach Su Zimo a lesson and it would be best if he could kick the latter out of the academy!

It could be said that Su Zimo was embroiled in this fight between inner sect disciples without knowing anything.

He was merely a sacrifice for this inner sect fight.

“I can accept your contempt and hostility!”

“However, Su Zimo is not related to me. Back then, he was just an ordinary cultivator and he is no different from the other disciples who joined the academy. Why are you guys targeting him?!”

Yang Ruoxu glared at Pang Yu and shouted, “He has nothing to do with our feud! He’s innocent! If you have any means, you can come at me directly!”
