2185 Name of the Academy
“Initially, I had no intention of stooping to your level. All you had to do was scram over obediently and apologize to my young master,”
The Xue Clan servant stepped on the middle-aged man’s palm and glared at the young man not far away coldly. “However, you’re a brat with a dirty mouth. How dare you scold me?”
“Exalted Immortal, please calm down,”
Enduring the sharp pain in his palm, the middle-aged man forced a smile. “We don’t want these Essence Spirit Stones anymore. Take that iron sword as a gift for Young Master Xue as an apology. Exalted Immortal, please show mercy.”
“Fufu.”
The Xue Clan servant smiled smugly and glared at the young man not far away, cursing, “Brat, hurry and kneel down! Slap yourself!”
The young man’s face was filled with rage and his swollen cheeks were filled with blood that had already turned purplish.
“Brat, you’re indignant?!”
The Xue Clan servant cursed as he stomped on the middle-aged man’s severed arm.
The middle-aged man trembled in pain but remained silent.
When he saw that, the young man’s eyes were filled with tears and he could no longer hold on. Closing his eyes, he bent his knees and knelt on the ground.
Suddenly!
Before the young man’s knees touched the ground, he felt a tremendous resistance lifting his body slowly.
The young man was stunned and looked over instinctively.
Unknowingly, someone had appeared beside him.
This person had moved to help him up.
The person had refined features and wore green robes. Although thousands of years had passed, the young man recognized him at a glance and exclaimed, “Brother Su, it’s you!”
Su Zimo nodded.
The two of them had not seen each other for thousands of years and Su Zimo’s appearance had not changed much.
However, Xu Xiaotian had already grown up.
Those two were the former City Lord of Dragon Abyss City, Xu Shi, and his child, Xu Xiaotian.
At that time, when Su Zimo left the Dragon Abyss Star for Green Cloud County, it was Xu Shi who pointed out the direction for him.
“Brother Su…”
Xu Shi turned to look at Su Zimo and a look of joy appeared on his pale face. Just as he said that, he realized something and changed his words hurriedly. “Exalted Immortal Su, it’s been a long time.”
“Take your feet away,”
Su Zimo looked at the servant of the Xue Clan and said coldly.
“Why? You think that you can threaten me just because your cultivation realm is two levels higher than mine?”
When the Xue Clan servant checked that Su Zimo was a Grade 8 Earth Immortal, he was not afraid at all and sneered, “Why don’t you open your eyes and see who you’re talking to? How dare you provoke someone from the Xue Clan…”
Suddenly!
A figure crossed a hundred feet and arrived before the Xue Clan servant in the blink of an eye.
The voice of the Xue Clan servant stopped abruptly.
Immediately after, the figure of the Xue Clan servant was sent flying. While he was in midair, his heart exploded and an arrow of blood spurted out from his chest as the sound of bones cracking could be heard from his body!
By the time the Xue Clan servant fell to the ground, his entire body was as soft as mud and his tendons and bones were shattered, turning his organs into a puddle of blood.
His entire body was severely injured and completely crippled!
It was only then that the surrounding crowd reacted and exclaimed.
Many cultivators of the Xue Clan were alerted and their palms landed on their storage bags, ready to summon their Dharmic treasures at any moment as they glared at Su Zimo with unfriendly expressions.
Young Master Xue who was protected by everyone from the Xue Clan frowned slightly as well and raised his head to look at Su Zimo.
His gaze landed on the sect badge on Su Zimo’s waist and paused for a moment.
Su Zimo helped Xu Shi up.
Xu Shi was not severely injured. Given his cultivation as an Earth Immortal, he would recover completely after recuperating for a while.
However, it was different for the Xue Clan servant. His body was crippled by Su Zimo, leaving only a frightened Essence Spirit. He ran to Young Master Xue and cried loudly.
“Exalted Immortal, be careful. The Xue Clan is powerful. Please don’t be implicated because of us,”
Xu Shi said softly with a worried expression.
He knew very well that even if everyone from his sect, Water Cloud Sword Sect, were here, they would not dare to offend Young Master Xue, let alone the fact that Su Zimo was a Grade 8 Earth Immortal.
A single sentence from Young Master Xue could raze the entire Water Cloud Sword Sect to the ground!
“Young master, you have to uphold justice for me!”
The Essence Spirit of the Xue Clan servant dimmed as he ran over and lamented, “Although I’m only a dog of the Xue Clan, those who want to attack me have to be wary of my masters! This person attacked me directly and disregarded your status! He’s simply looking down on the Xue Clan…”
Poof!
Before the person could finish, Young Master Xue suddenly waved the iron sword in his hands and sliced the person’s Essence Spirit into two.
The servant died on the spot with his Essence Spirit destroyed!
Even till his death, this person had not expected that he would die in the hands of his master.
“Greetings, Fellow Daoist. I’m Xue Yuan. My servant is blind and offended you, so I killed him for you. You don’t have to stoop to his level, Fellow Daoist,”
Young Master Xue cupped his fists towards Su Zimo and greeted with a smile, “How may I address you, Fellow Daoist?”
Xue Yuan’s attitude surprised Xu Shi and his son.
Xue Yuan was a Grade 9 Earth Immortal to begin with. Most of the Xue Clan cultivators around him were also Grade 8 or 9 Earth Immortals and were extremely strong.
Logically speaking, Xue Yuan should not show weakness.
Many cultivators watching were puzzled as well and discussed softly.
“What’s the background of this person to be able to make Young Master Xue back down?”
“The sect badge on that person’s waist looks familiar. It seems to be… Heaven and Earth Academy!” Someone exclaimed.
The moment those words were said, it was like a stone that caused a thousand levels of waves, causing a huge reaction in the crowd.
“Heaven and Earth Academy of the four immortal sects!”
“Disciples of the academy have appeared!”
Xu Shi and Xu Xiaotian were shocked.
Although they had heard of the four immortal sects, such sects were way beyond their reach!
Compared to Heaven and Earth Academy, the Water Cloud Sword Sect they were in was like an insignificant ant.
Back in Dragon Abyss City, Xu Shi could tell that Su Zimo had a lot of potential.
However, he could not imagine that after just a few thousand years, this scholarly man had already joined Heaven and Earth Academy, one of the four immortal sects!
Back in Dragon Abyss City, Xu Shi’s cultivation realm was even higher than Su Zimo’s.
But now, the difference between the two of them was like heaven and earth.
It was no wonder why Xue Yuan would have such an attitude.
Although the Xue Clan was a major immortal Dao clan with immense strength and a deep foundation, they were slightly inferior compared to Heaven and Earth Academy.
“Return that sword to them,”
Su Zimo did not reply to Xue Yuan’s question. Instead, he pointed to the iron sword in Xue Yuan’s hands.
Xue Yuan frowned slightly with a hesitant expression before saying with a smile, “Fellow Daoist, I spent Essence Spirit Stones to buy this sword. Even if you’re a disciple of the academy, you can’t snatch it by force, right?”
Naturally, the reason why he was here was to take part in the 10,000 Year Meet and fight for a spot on the Earth Ranking.
Given his methods and combat strength, he should be able to be ranked around 50 on the Earth Ranking.
Therefore, he was not afraid at all when he saw that Su Zimo was only a Grade 8 Earth Immortal.
More importantly, the Xue Clan had produced an even more powerful paragon in this generation that was right behind him!
The combat strength of this paragon could definitely be ranked in the top 20 of the Earth Ranking!
Two Earth Ranking experts—that was Xue Yuan’s confidence.
