My Master Knows It All
Chapter 51 - 51 47 Sorry I'm just trying to scam you_1

51: Chapter 47 Sorry, I’m just trying to scam you_1 51: Chapter 47 Sorry, I’m just trying to scam you_1 The mound of earth was not too large, emitting a strong and chaotic Five Elements Energy.

Ordinary cultivators couldn’t understand how to organize this Five Elements Power, to establish rules to break it, and to rescue the person trapped within.

A divine weapon, broken into more than a dozen pieces of scrap iron, lay scattered across the platform.

Those who came for the examination, to watch the excitement, and those who were members of the examination team, all stood stunned, staring at the platform for a long while, unable to speak.

That Yan Yourong won was certainly surprising, but what truly shocked them was her effortless shattering of the divine weapon with a wave of her hand and burying the team leader with a stomp of her foot.

Was this the real strength of someone with an Ancient Immortal Body when fighting against peers of the same level?

Lyu Yifeng was trapped under the mound of Five Elements Earth and tried several times to break free, only to find that the Five Elements Seal Power within the mound continued to cycle endlessly.

It would not dissipate anytime soon, and all his mana was sealed; he simply could not break free.

Several members of the “Heaven’s Decree Team” responsible for the examination noticed Lyu Yifeng’s predicament and hurried forward to try to use spells to help him break free.

But this was a Divine Skill, ah!

And it was the Great Five Elements inherent in a saintly body that had released the Great Five Elements Divine Technique!

How could several people, whose cultivation bases were even lower than Lyu Yifeng’s, possibly unravel such advanced Divine Skills?

Their spells had just been cast and had not yet landed on the mound of Five Elements Earth when they were absorbed by the chaotic Five Elements Energy and converted back into Five Elements Power.

“Stop it, stop it,” Lyu Yifeng said, feeling the mound of Five Elements Earth becoming heavier after absorbing the spells from several people, pressing down on every bone in his body as if they were about to break from the pain.

The people attempting the rescue were thrown into a panic, at a loss for what to do for a moment, and kept stealing glances at Yan Yourong, who was walking down from the platform.

Yan Yourong, sensing that someone was watching her, casually explained before stepping down from the platform, “This Five Elements Mountain will suppress him for three days.

After three days, the Divine Skills will naturally dissipate, and then he will be able to come out…”

Before her voice had faded away, a bolt of lightning struck down from the sky, hitting the Five Elements Mountain directly.

The disordered Five Elements Power was shattered by the lightning strike and dissipated, and the Great Five Elements Divine Technique, the Five Elements Seal nestled within the mound, was also shattered by the roaring lightning.

Lyu Yifeng felt the power restraining him vanish, his hands fiercely pushed against the ground, and several Thunder Dao Divine Skills blew the earth burying him into dust.

He flipped twice in the air before falling back to the ground amidst the downpour of earth.

High above, a man stood on a huge Talisman, his hands clasped behind his back as he slowly descended, with remnants of unvanished lightning around the Talisman.

Cao Zhen saw that the descending figure was a handsome, bald, middle-aged man cloaked in the standard-length robe of the Hundred Peaks Sect, the unique apparel of the Hundred Peaks Sect’s patrolling officials.

“This is the Hundred Peaks Sect ‘Heaven’s Decree Team’s’ examination site,” the man said on landing, putting away the Talisman into his sleeve, his hands still clasped behind his back as he spoke to Cao Zhen, “Don’t think you can disrupt the examination site and disturb the order of the examination just because you have the support of a Peak Master.”

Ever since Cao Zhen had crossed over to the Hundred Peaks Sect, he had been living a life devoted to cultivation.

Hearing someone speak bureaucratically in the world of immortal cultivation, he suddenly felt like he was back on Earth during his 996 work-life days.

“Master Uncle…” Lyu Yifeng stood up and ran toward the bald man, but upon noticing the man’s stern gaze, he hurriedly corrected himself, “Qi Officer, you must stand up for me!”

Qi Degang withdrew his stern gaze from Lyu Yifeng and donned the appearance of an impartial law enforcer as he looked at Cao Zhen, though he was filled with discontent inside.

The previous bet between Starshine Peak and Four Treasures Peak had cost many people dearly.

Qi Degang was one of them.

When his nephew suddenly came to request the examination of Cao Zhen’s disciples from Four Treasures Peak and it involved a bet, he thought he saw an opportunity to turn the tables!

Qi Degang knew about Lyu Yifeng and Yan Yourong.

As long as Lyu Yifeng wanted to win, then Yan Yourong wouldn’t be able to withstand a single move!

The only variable was whether Four Treasures Peak’s Cao Zhen would forcibly transfer his power to Yan Yourong, allowing her to temporarily possess a cultivation base and combat strength beyond her usual limits.

But this transferred power could not truly help Yan Yourong break through; it could only stay in her body for a short time, whereas the person transferring the power would truly be harmed.

Qi Degang thought that, no matter how crazy, Cao Zhen would not transfer enough power to elevate Yan Yourong to the Immortal Bridge Realm; the damage to him as a Peak Master would be too great.

At best, he would only transfer enough for her to reach the power level of the Nine Taoist Platforms.

Therefore, if Lyu Yifeng just held the divine weapon, he could still defeat Yan Yourong and also make the power Cao Zhen transferred be wasted.

Qi Degang bet all he had left through Lyu Yifeng, wagering that Yan Yourong was bound to lose!

In this way, he hoped to get revenge for the previous gambling loss and recover some of the money.

Last night, after Qi Degang had arranged everything, he felt like a great person who controlled everything behind the scenes, turning his hand for the clouds and covering his hand for the rain.

Today, Qi Degang had intended to hide and enjoy the show secretly.

But as the divine weapon shattered and Lyu Yifeng was suppressed, he couldn’t sit still!

If Cao Zhen and the others were to get away, then both the divine weapon and his own coffin book would really be gone!

As Yan Yourong mentioned suppressing someone for three days, Qi Degang found his opportunity!

As long as he could pin the blame for disrupting the assessment on them, this competition would be invalidated!

He could still reclaim his coffin book!

And that damaged divine weapon!

He would force the other party to…

no!

Pay double the compensation!

“I’m not asserting authority on your behalf, I’m upholding the rules of the Hundred Peaks Sect,” Qi Degang said as he looked at Cao Zhen, “A seal suppresses the platform for three days, is this platform owned by your Four Treasures Peak?

It’s enough to determine a winner in combat.

To suppress someone for three days, do you know that ‘Heaven’s Decree Team’ had missions arranged for him during these three days?

How many more assessments are there on this platform in the next three days?”

Ling Xi had never experienced such a situation and immediately became anxious, nervously looking towards her master.

If they truly broke the rules of the Hundred Peaks Sect, Four Treasures Peak might be in big trouble.

Cao Zhen did not look at Ling Xi, but instead placed his hand on Yan Yourong’s, which was on the hilt of her sword.

Compared to Ling Xi, it was Yan Yourong – who was always quick to suggest killing and burying people – that truly needed to be controlled in advance.

“In that case…” Cao Zhen knew it was pointless to argue with this kind of official who deliberately sought trouble, so he simply grabbed Yan Yourong’s wrist and said, “Let’s go to the Law Enforcement Immortal Palace and turn ourselves in.”

Turn themselves in?

Qi Degang was dumbfounded on the spot.

Based on past situations, once he pinned a big hat on them, the other party would usually choose to fight back for the sake of face.

In the ensuing stubborn exchange, they would indeed violate the rules of the Hundred Peaks Sect!

Qi Degang was very familiar with this process.

He knew how to harness the other party’s anger and gradually lead them into actually breaking the rules.

“Cao Zhen, wait a moment…” Qi Degang called out urgently.

Qi Degang, we are taking ourselves to the Law Enforcement Immortal Palace,” said Cao Zhen without looking back, leading his disciples straight to the Immortal Cloud Carriage.

He knew that if he stopped to talk, he risked getting pulled into this old bureaucrat’s trap, and could lose the high ground even though he was initially in the right.

Seeing Cao Zhen leaving quickly, Qi Degang knew that if Cao Zhen really left, all his previous plans would be wasted.

He immediately mobilized his power to chase after them while shouting, “People of Four Treasures Peak, are you attempting to escape from your crimes?

Stop right there!”

Yan Yourong wanted to turn around but found her master’s grip very strong, so she could only keep moving forward with him.

Qi Degang hadn’t expected his call to stop them to fail, so he resorted to turning his spell into hundreds of Wind Blades slashing towards Cao Zhen from behind.

Cao Zhen’s hands firmly held on to Yan Yourong and Ling Xi, preventing them from counterattacking.

He mobilized a minimal amount of power to protect his vital points while simultaneously activating the Dragon and Tiger Golden Body to invisibly enhance his defense in a split second.

Bang, bang, bang…

The hundreds of Wind Blades struck like a storm, and in an instant, Cao Zhen’s clothes turned to shreds, his back spurted blood from numerous wounds, and he uncontrollably flew forward in the air, tumbling over a dozen meters before crashing heavily to the ground.

Yan Yourong caught Cao Zhen before he fell, exclaiming in shock, “Master…”

Qi Degang stood frozen, staring blankly at the severely injured Cao Zhen.

He couldn’t understand why Cao Zhen hadn’t dodged or why he hadn’t fought back or defended himself – isn’t that human instinct?

Qi Degang had expected that by intervening, Cao Zhen would have no choice but to counterattack or defend, and then he could bring him back into his own rhythm.

However, he didn’t expect Cao Zhen to refrain from counterattacking.

Now with this turn of events…

things just became troublesome!

Qi Degang suddenly felt overwhelmed.

Within the Hundred Peaks Sect, one cannot attack a fellow sect member without reason, and the other’s identity was that of a Peak Master!

And now he had injured the man…

if it wasn’t handled properly, his wrongdoing would be too great!

But his attack just now shouldn’t have been so heavy!

Qi Degang couldn’t understand.

He had clearly controlled his strength.

Five Immortal Bridges wouldn’t be hurt like this!

Could it be that Cao Zhen’s Five Immortal Bridges were fake?

On that day of the duel, did he use some special technique?

Making others believe he had Five Immortal Bridges?

Yan Yourong saw her master’s back covered in fresh blood, spitting more blood from his mouth, her eyes filled with murderous rage.

She wanted to hand her master to Ling Xi and then seek vengeance, but when she attempted to move, her arm was tightly gripped by her ‘unconscious’ master.

Then, Yan Yourong saw her master in her arms stealthily opening his eyes, and after that, she saw a mischievous smile in her master’s eyes.

Then she saw her master mouth words silently.

After several attempts to recognize, Yan Yourong finally made out what her master was saying: “Fly into a rage, accuse the other party of breaking the rules, but do not attack…

we’re going to scam a big one from him!

Master is fine…”

Yan Yourong’s worldview began to collapse in that moment.

Master…

was this considered fraud?

Master wasn’t seriously injured?

What did ‘scam’ mean?

Cao Zhen, lying in Yan Yourong’s arms, was about to laugh out loud.

The creation of Deception Pills had consumed a large amount of Spirit Stones from his possession.

He had been somewhat worried about whether he would need to auction pills to raise money, to create Deception Pills or similar pills for Ling Xi’s breakthrough.

He hadn’t expected someone to come to his door for a scam, should he not seize the opportunity quickly?

“Quick, get angry!

Staring at me isn’t going to make money!” Cao Zhen once again used mouth shapes to remind Yan Yourong.

To ensure his disciple caught on, he twisted her waist harshly, saying, “Remember!

Tell him, Officer Qi!

My master repeatedly expressed his desire to take us to the Law Enforcement Immortal Palace to turn ourselves in!

Everyone present is a witness!

Yet you attacked and injured someone!

What do you mean by this?”

Feeling the pain, Yan Yourong quickly came to her senses, handed her master over to Ling Xi, and immediately turned around, summoning the vision of ten giant Great Five Elements Taoist Platforms.

Her eyes blazed with murderous intent as she raised her hand and pointed at Qi Degang, reproaching him sharply, “Officer Qi!

My master repeatedly expressed his will to take us to the Law Enforcement Immortal Palace to turn ourselves in!

Everyone here is a witness!

Yet you attack and injure someone!

What are your intentions?”
