Chapter 1329 - Chapter 1329 Chapter 621 Xu Pings Insight

Chapter 1329: Chapter 621: Xu Ping’s Insight Chapter 1329: Chapter 621: Xu Ping’s Insight Nanji Grandmaster Xu You, naturally intelligent, had demonstrated exceptional martial arts talent from a young age.

At fourteen, he broke through to the Mortal Realm and directly awakened the fifth-grade Qingmu bloodline, transforming completely.

Wood fuels fire; Xu You greatly enhanced the power of the mundane Xu Clan’s Profound Grade technique Danyang Blazing True Skill.

In just a few years, he defeated all the Mortal Realm warriors throughout Nanji, making him the most famous progeny of Jiangyang City.

After achieving unity of spirit and intent, he even entered Wuji Mansion as an external disciple for several years. Everyone thought Xu You would next enter Wuji Mansion’s inner gate, but instead, he gave up the opportunity for promotion, left Wuji Mansion, and returned to the Xu Clan.

Just like other outstanding youth from Xiehe, Xu You quickly earned the clan’s recognition by showcasing astonishing combat capabilities upon his return to Jiangyang City; relying on the broadened horizons he developed during his years at Wuji Mansion, he reformed the Danyang Blazing True Skill.

The rise of a clan’s technique often depends on a prodigy with exceptional abilities rather than on slow meticulous research by a group of ordinary researchers.

Under Xu You’s leadership, the Xu Clan’s moderately powerful fire technique quickly became a fearsome Profound Skill discussed fearfully among Nanji’s warriors.

After the reforms, the combat prowess of the Xu Family warriors soared, making even their combined attacks extremely vicious.

Despite making a significant contribution, Xu You remained humble and continued focusing on improving his bloodline technique, fading from the eyes of Nanji’s warriors.

It wasn’t until he was thirty-three that he broke through to the Fierce Realm and effortlessly defeated several Martial Ancestors from the Xu Clan during a sparring session, becoming the strongest in the Xu Clan.

Everyone expected such a gifted individual to declare himself king almost immediately, but perhaps the reform of his bloodline technique had drained too much of Xu You’s energy. This highly anticipated strong candidate spent a full fifty years at the peak of the Fierce Realm just to glimpse the Grandmaster’s realm and then another twenty years to complete the Spirit Qualification of his body.

Looking back suddenly, Jiangyang’s pride was now an old man with gray beard, and even though he reached Grandmaster level, he could no longer see further paths forward.

Realizing this in his heart, Xu You let go of his unrealistic desire to declare himself king and continued to focus on refining his bloodline technique, as if to elevate the Danyang Blazing True Skill to an Earth Level technique on his own!

Here was a man who had dedicated his life to his maternal clan; to the Xu Clan, Xu You was an almost sacred figure, and the audacity of a mere youth challenging such a formidable warrior could almost be seen as an affront to all of Nanji!

“Is this Longxi’s Pride truly so arrogant?”

Family head Xu Yang, after hearing the challenge message brought by the clan’s Martial Ancestors, couldn’t help but show a blue-black expression on his face, and asked in a deep voice,

“Correct.”

The severely injured Martial Ancestor Xu Ping said bitterly, “This person disregards everyone, not putting even our Grandmasters in his eyes, and has explicitly said he will visit Nanji early next spring for a duel!”

Although Xu Yang was a warrior of the Fierce Realm, being diligent in clan affairs meant that his understanding of martial combat prowess was not very clear. Upon hearing such a confident message, and recalling rumors that this Longxi’s Pride had briefly engaged Yanyun Grandmaster in Chaochang City, he felt quite uneasy.

“In your opinion, how would this Longxi’s Pride fare against the old Grandmaster in a spar?”

Frowning, Xu Yang asked Xu Ping in a deep voice.

“Is that even a question, the old Grandmaster must prevail!”

Xu Ping replied loudly without thinking, but seeing the Family Head’s somewhat dissatisfied look, he added an explanation, “Xu Ping understands the Family Head’s concern; it’s solely because this Tang Luo had briefly contended with the Yanyun Grandmaster in Chaochang and managed to injure three clan Martial Ancestors in just a few moves, which made his prowess seem earth-shattering. This, however, is a huge misconception!”

“Tang Luo, naturally gifted with a Dao body and extraordinary cultivation in body arts, also awakened an astonishing bloodline, pushing his combat strength to the peak of the Fierce Realm. Naturally, he can easily overpower ordinary Martial Ancestors, but this does not mean he could fight evenly or even defeat a Grandmaster!”

Though defeated by Tang Luo in just three moves, Xu Ping, being of Martial Ancestor level, still possessed insight. He analyzed his opponent thoroughly in just a few exchanges: “Tang Luo’s proudly refined body arts would be ineffective in front of the old Grandmaster’s Dan Flame Spirit Body, and size transformation would only make him a live target, always needing to be cautious of getting scorched by the old Grandmaster’s alien fire.”

“As for the famously feared Yin-Yang Grinding, it’s extremely effective against spirit bodies but can only serve as a sort of superior defensive Spirit Art against pure Five Elements Spiritual Power attacks. Even if he possesses the capability of Starshifting, how could he possibly harm the old Grandmaster?”

“All things considered, the only way Tang Luo could possibly injure the old Grandmaster is with the Great Dao Thunder Chanting Staff and an Innate Divine Sword bestowed by Martial Saint Mountain. But with just these abilities, where could he pose a threat to the old Grandmaster? Therefore, this young man is bound to be defeated without doubt!”

The more Xu Ping spoke, the more excited he became. By the end, he had even forgotten the lingering pain in his vitals, as if he had already seen Tang Luo defeated and prostrate before Grandmaster Xu You, his spirits soaring.

“Good, good, good!”

The head of the family, Xu Yang, praised thrice, his voice solemn, “The Longxi Alliance is now immensely powerful, and even the Evil King Palace fears it somewhat. With the Fire-Stealing Grandmaster Xiao Jinlin at the forefront and the unrivaled Longxi’s Pride following, given time, who can stand against them? Fortunately, heaven blesses the Xu Clan, presenting such an opportunity to me, the clan leader. To not utilize it would be to disgrace this gift from the heavens!”

Gratitude tinged with a chilling intent to kill made Xu Ping shiver, and he cautiously advised, “Clan leader, please be careful, Tang Luo has been recognized as kin by the Yuanzhou Xu Clan; he is untouchable!”

“An upright and just competition, no grudges in life or death!”

Xu Yang gave Xu Ping a sidelong glance, calmly saying, “How could the capacity of a sacred land of the Human Race be compared to these petty and despicable beings, even direct descendants of Swordsmen perish, can’t a kin of pride perish? Are you still worried that the Xu Clan will seek revenge on his behalf?”

After hearing the clan leader’s words, the Martial Ancestor Xu Ping scratched his head, feeling a bit cowardly about his earlier reaction and embarrassedly lowered his head.

“The master is severely injured; you should return to the medicinal hut to recuperate first.”

After sending away the Martial Ancestor Xu Ping, Xu Yang pondered in his heart, ‘There’s nothing to worry about with the Yuanzhou Xu Clan, but the reaction of the Longxi Alliance is a big problem.’

‘After this battle, Tang Luo will either die or his path will be destroyed. The Tang Clan that leads the Longxi Alliance will not stop at that; how to deal with it still requires careful planning…’

Aran Mountain Cultivation Chamber

It took who knows how long for Yun Xiu, who had struggled to subdue her Supreme Divine Soul, to open her eyes, and the first thing she saw was a burly man sitting cross-legged at the entrance, facing inward.

As soon as he saw her wake up, he came to the bedside like a flash, bringing a leather water pouch exuding a strange fragrance to her lips.

‘This is an extremely expensive treasured Spirit Liquid.’

Yun Xiu, with some medical knowledge, identified several treasured medicines from the fragrance, but what made her even happier was Tang Luo’s attitude.

He didn’t immediately ask about the condition of the Supreme Divine Soul, as if the result of his painstaking efforts wasn’t as important as one of her fingers.

Such a feeling of being treasured and held in the palm was something Yun Xiu had forgotten when last she felt it.

She obediently took small sips of the Spirit Liquid brought to her lips, warmth spreading down her throat into her heart, her eyes smiling.

In the past, she had thought this man was clueless about romance; perhaps she had misunderstood him.

“Enough, enough.”

Seeing the man’s intent to pour the whole jug of Spirit Liquid into her, Yun Xiu decisively called for a halt, and coquettishly scolded Tang Luo, “Are you in such a hurry to pour this into me because you can’t wait to know about the God-making plan?”

Women love to ask knowingly, even when they know a man is deeply in love with them; they still want to hear it from him directly. Miss Yun of the Yun Family was no exception.

But the man obviously misunderstood her intention, thinking he was being questioned and challenged, he retorted, “What a joke, how could the plan devised by this pride fail? I’m pouring Spirit Liquid only because I’m worried your True Spirit is too weak to subdue that Supreme Divine Soul, wasting all my hard work!”

Heh, I should have expected it; this guy only knows martial arts and understands nothing about romance!

Snatching the leather pouch, Yun Xiu threw back her head and closed her eyes, gulping down the liquid.

Such a bold gesture caught Tang Luo off guard: “What are you…”

“Burp!”

After swallowing the last drop of the precious Spirit Liquid, Yun Xiu let out a fragrant burp and then slammed the now-empty leather water pouch against the man’s chest.

“If my True Spirit is too weak, what’s wrong with drinking some Spirit Liquid, huh!”

“Drink then, no need to be so fierce.”

Holding the empty pouch, Tang Luo weakly muttered, feeling incredibly wronged.
