The Prodigies War

Yuncui Pavilion.

A magnificent golden glow bathed the pavilion and many figures could be seen inside.

Wu Yunlian and other Heavenly Sound Pavilion younger generation experts were politely accompanying the distinguished guests from the Imperial Jintian Clan.

Nature-like music flowed in the air as beautiful dancers spryly danced along with the beat.

Wu Yunlian had a smug smile on her face.

Earlier, she had deliberately mentioned that there was a disciple named Liu Qingyan among their Heavenly Sound Pavilion younger generation, who was as beautiful as a poem and as graceful as a painting.

Together with her superb musical talent, she was known as the fairy of their generation.

This naturally aroused the Jintian Clan guests’ interest.

Hence, Wu Yunlian struck while the iron was hot and immediately sent an invite to Liu Qingyan.

Wu Yunlian leisurely thought to herself, "That bitch won’t be able to refuse this time. Once she shows up, it won't be easy for her to leave..."

She was jealous of Liu Qingyan’s beauty, character, and cultivation.

Her biggest crime, however, was that she had caught the fancy of the Primordial Dao Court disciple, Kong Yu, who Wu Yunlian had originally regarded as the perfect dao companion!

This fanned the flames of jealousy in Wu Yunlian’s heart and made her wish she could destroy Liu Qingyan.

Suddenly, a silver-robed man frowned slightly and asked, "Why isn’t Miss Qingyan here yet?"

The festive atmosphere suddenly froze as many gazes shifted toward Wu Yunlian.

She inwardly trembled and hurriedly said, "Young Master, please be patient. I will immediately send someone to hurry her."

The silver-robed man was named Jintian Qi. He was a pure-blooded descendant of the Jintian Clan with extremely high status and was viewed as a leader by the other Jintian Clan members present.

Wu Yunlian would never dare to slight such a distinguished guest.

Before she could proceed, she saw Yu Jun returning alone with a gloomy expression.

Wu Yunlian asked, "Teacher-Uncle, where is Junior Sister Liu Qingyan?"

Yu Jun gnashed his teeth and answered, "I was blocked by that Yu fellow."

"How dare that Yu Xuan?!"

Wu Yunlian loudly slapped the table and stood up as iciness flashed in her eyes. "Teacher-Uncle, why didn’t you use force?"

The atmosphere grew silent.

The silver-robed man and the others frowned. How dare a disciple of Heavenly Sound Pavilion refuse to meet them?!

Yu Jun's expression fluctuated indeterminately. "There was an array in the courtyard that I couldn't fully gauge. That’s why I didn’t immediately take action."

Wu Yunlian's pretty face turned increasingly frosty. "This is our Whirlwind Ship. How dare Yu Xuan set up something like that without permission? Preposterous."

Slightly annoyed, Jintian Qi showed his displeasure. "I don't care about who this Yu Xuan is. I only ask if our Jintian Clan isn’t good enough to invite Miss Qingyan."

They had been scolded by their ancestor, Sword Emperor Brave Gale, earlier today and weren’t in the best of moods.

Which was why they had gathered in Yuncui Pavilion to drink away their frustrations.

Who could have thought that they would end up encountering such an unpleasant matter?

Never mind if their ancestor scolded them but to think that a Heavenly Sound Pavilion disciple dared to refuse to meet them. It was clear that she had little respect for them!

Upon hearing this Wu Yunlian shuddered and quickly said, "Teacher-Uncle Yu Jun, please go and invite Junior Sister Qingyan here. It doesn’t matter what methods you use!"

She heavenly emphasized the word ‘invite.’

Yu Jun could also tell that Jintian Qi and the other guests weren’t happy. Hence, he didn’t dare to waste a second longer and hurriedly left.

Wu Yunlian picked up a cup and smiled charmingly, "Here’s a toast to everyone. I hope you can quell your anger and not lower yourselves to Junior Sister Qingyan’s level."

Jintian Qi remained stony-faced. "If Liu Qingyan doesn't come, we won't drink."

The atmosphere suddenly became stifling.

Wu Yunlian was left hanging, appearing awkward and stiff. Inside, she was furious. Liu Qingyan, you bitch. There will be suffering when you arrive!

……

Guest Welcome Mountain.

Yu Jun and a group of people menacingly approached, drawing the attention of countless gazes along the way.

The hemp-clothed youth climbed onto the wall and excitedly muttered, "The show is about to begin."

The old woman merely smiled and paid no attention to the disturbance.

At another corner, an old man continued to drink, appearing completely oblivious to the commotion.

In front of the courtyard at the foot of the mountain, Dukong’s eyes remained closed. He was as still as a statue from start to end.

When they arrived, Yu Jun immediately ordered, "Old Du, remove the courtyard’s qi replenishing array."

The ship was covered in numerous arrays, which included a qi replenishing array for every courtyard on Guest Welcome Mountain.

Old Du was the Heavenly Sound Pavilion Elder overseeing the management of these arrays.

The thin elder took out a tortoise-shell-shaped formation plate and gently waved it.

Omm~

With a slight rumble, the array covering Lin Xun’s courtyard was removed, leaving only the Galaxy Restriction Array he had set up.

Yu Jun spoke in a deep voice, "Yu Xuan, how long will your array continue to operate without a power source? If you obediently cooperate now, I will spare your life. Otherwise, the moment I break in will be your death!"

His sinister voice oozed with murder.

However, there was no response from the courtyard.

Lin Xun drank his wine while Liu Qingyan was blankly staring into space.

This made Yu Jun’s expression grow increasingly ugly. With a deep breath, he waved. "Do it. Break the array!"

Rumble!

The group's Saint-King experts immediately began bombarding the array.

However, the array easily dissipated the attacks as if they were being thrown into the ocean.

Yu Jun’s pupils shrank, realizing that the array was nowhere near as simple as he had imagined.

He shouted, "Continue, attack with all your power!"

If Liu Qingyan wasn’t brought to Yuncui Pavilion as soon as possible, who would be able to bear the consequences of angering their guests?

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Treasure lights and dao arts bombarded the array like a massive tsunami, producing deafening explosions.

The huge disturbance alarmed the many residents all over Guest Welcome Mountain, causing them to cast their spirit sense over.

“Haha, the defensive and binding abilities of that array are something that even a quasi-Emperor won’t be able to break through within a short time. Those idiots are really stupid.”

The hemp-clothed youth lying atop the wall laughed as he watched.

Meanwhile, Liu Qingyan couldn't help but worry. "Elder, if this continues, the commotion will grow too big and we will completely offend Heavenly Sound Pavilion."

Lin Xun thought for a moment and said, "That's true."

He stood up and waved his sleeve, causing an obvious ‘opening’ to appear in the Saint Galaxy Array.

After which, he clapped and said, "We’ll first lure the enemy in, then close the door and beat the dogs so there won’t be too big of a commotion."

Outside, one of the experts exclaimed in surprise, "It’s open!"

Murderous intent pulsed from Yu Jun as he waved his hand. "Charge in and kill that bastard Yu Xuan!"

"Go!”

All the Saint-King experts immediately rushed in.

Upon seeing Lin Xun standing in the courtyard, Yu Jun smiled sinisterly and said, "Take Qingyan to Yuncui Pavilion. I'll take care of this bastard!"

With that, he struck without hesitation.

He was genuinely pissed off and hated Yu Xuan to the point of insanity. How dare a mere Saint-King dare to go against him time and time again? Did he think he could do whatever he wanted because he had the backing of the Imperial Yu Clan?

How naive, childish, and ridiculous!

Yu Jun would show Yu Xuan what it meant to be minced to pieces and have your bones ground to dust!

Rumble!

Yu Jun’s palm swung with the power of a heavy mountain as light flared and rippled.

None of them noticed that the Saint Galaxy Array had returned to its original state...

Meanwhile, the rest of the Saint-Kings advanced toward Liu Qingyan with an attitude that said they wouldn’t hold back if she tried to resist.

However, Liu Qingyan seemed oblivious to her precarious situation because she was fully focused on Lin Xun’s side instead.

Upon seeing Yu Jun make his move, she grew so nervous that she forgot to breathe.

Elder Yu Jun is a true-blue supreme Saint-King. What can Elder Yu Xuan possibly do against such a foe?

However, an incredulous scene soon followed.

Lin Xun suddenly reached out and made a grabbing motion, causing Yu Jun’s palm force to scatter into light particles.

At the same time, he was grabbed by the neck as if he were a mere chicken!

The sudden and unexpected turn of events startled the Saint-Kings, causing them to stop in disbelief.

"You you you..."

Yu Jun’s mind went blank, leaving only a single thought: how could a Saint-King possess such power?

"I have been tolerant yet you guys continue to repeatedly provoke me. Are you so eager to die?"

Lin Xun sighed softly.

There was a sense of helplessness in his voice.

One of the Saint-Kings yelled, "What are you doing?! Hurry up and release Elder Yu Jun! Whirlwind Ship is the territory of Heavenly Sound Pavilion!"

Bang!

Yu Jun also tried to speak, but before he could open his mouth, Lin Xun exerted a dreadful force through his hand that rapidly plundered Yu Jun’s vital energy.

He shriveled and withered at a rate that could be seen by the naked eye and soon turned to dust.

This was the power of the Green Wood Dao Body!

Even a supreme Saint-King was effortlessly erased.

"You..."

The other Saint-Kings were left horrified and their faces turned pale with fear.

They had viewed Yu Xuan as worthless since he boarded the ship, and no one had expected his Saint-King cultivation to hide such a terrifying power!

Who...is he?

Liu Qingyan was also stunned.

"Everyone, I have been nothing but well-behaved since boarding the ship. So why do you guys keep looking down on me and targeting me?"

Lin Xun looked at the Saint-Kings with eyes that were as deep as an unfathomable abyss.

“Quick, escape!”

The Saint-Kings immediately tried to flee.

They were scared silly. After all, even supreme Saint-King Yu Jun had been exterminated in an instant.

How could Lin Xun possibly allow them to escape? He moved elegantly without any wasted movements, exuding a nonchalant aura as if he were dealing with a trivial manner.

Despite this, all of the Saint-King Elders were killed in a few blinks of the eye.

Their vitality was plundered, causing them to shrivel up and turn into dust. It made Lin Xun resemble a god who lorded over life and death!
