Chapter 2490 - 2490 Provocation in Front of the Palace

2490 Provocation in Front of the Palace

The Yan Yang Immortal Kingdom.

More than ten cultivators stood in front of the palace, all of them Heaven Immortals.

“Prince Qingcheng, we’re already here. Who else are we waiting for?” In the crowd, a Grade 9 Heaven Immortal asked.

“There’s no hurry. You’ll know when the time comes.” Xie Qingcheng smiled gently and beat around the bush.

Another Grade 8 Heaven Immortal hesitated for a moment and whispered, “Prince Qingcheng, I heard that there are a few people in the top ten of the Heaven Ranking Prediction this time round. The few of us have no chance of winning against them.”

“We’re just taking part casually. I heard that there are many treasures in the Asura Battlefield as well. Let’s just try our luck. Who knows, we might obtain some inheritance.” Another person said.

“It’s said that Fellow Daoist Yue Ying has just obtained a secret skill inheritance and his combat strength has increased exponentially. With the help of the Asura Battlefield this time round, he has a chance to charge into the Heaven Ranking Prediction.”

A few cultivators looked at a young man in the crowd at the same time.

A smug look flashed through the eyes of the young man named Yue Ying as he smiled gently. “It’s just a chance. It’s not certain yet.”

When Xie Qingcheng saw that everyone did not bear any hope for him to s.n.a.t.c.h the seal, he smiled. “Everyone, don’t be discouraged. Although we don’t have many people, with this expert I invited, we’re definitely not weak!”

“What expert? Could he be from the Heaven Ranking Prediction?”

Everyone’s eyes lit up.

Xie Qingcheng smiled without saying anything.

Before long, a green-robed scholar strode over from afar. Although he seemed slow, he arrived in the blink of an eye and cupped his fists towards Xie Qingcheng, greeting.

“This is…”

Some cultivators frowned slightly in confusion.

One of the cultivators who had been to the 10,000 Year Meet recognized him and whispered, “Su Zimo of Heaven and Earth Academy!”

It was him!

A look of surprise flashed through everyone’s eyes.

Although many people had never seen Su Zimo before, they had heard of that name.

The impact of the battle in Absolute Thunder City was way too great!

Furthermore, the Heaven Ranking Prediction had already been released for more than a year. Although Su Zimo only had two battle records, he was ranked highly and was naturally memorable.

Yue Ying frowned slightly.

If it was anyone else on the Heaven Ranking Prediction, he would have nothing to say.

However, in the past year, rumors about Su Zimo spread everywhere.

Many people said that his ranking on the Heaven Ranking Prediction was largely exaggerated.

Furthermore, for the past year, Su Zimo chose to avoid all challengers, further verifying those rumors.

“Let me introduce him.”

Xie Qingcheng said, “I’m sure everyone has heard of him before. This is Heaven and Earth Academy’s Su Zimo who is ranked 24 on the Heaven Ranking Prediction!”

For the past year, Su Zimo avoided all challengers. As a result, the evaluation of him on the Heaven Ranking Prediction dropped as well, causing his ranking to drop from 17 to 24.

Apart from Yue Ying, the other cultivators cupped their fists.

No matter what the rumors were, Su Zimo was someone on the Heaven Ranking Prediction after all—they could not even touch the edges of the Heaven Ranking Prediction!

“This is Yue Ying. He is also strong enough to be ranked in the Heaven Ranking Prediction.”

Xie Qingcheng introduced the Heaven Immortals behind him to Su Zimo one after another.

Su Zimo cupped his fists and nodded as a form of greeting.

“Su Zimo of Heaven and Earth Academy. I’ve truly heard a lot about you in recent years!”

Yue Ying smiled. “Fellow Daoist Su, I heard that you did not dare to accept challenges from anyone for the past year. I’m truly surprised that you chose to take part in the Asura Battlefield today.”

Although Yue Ying looked polite with a smile on his face, his words were laced with sarcasm.

Su Zimo had an indifferent expression and did not even look at that person.

After all, this was someone on Xie Qingcheng’s side at the end of the day—he could not be bothered.

“Yue Ying!”

Xie Qingcheng frowned slightly and reminded softly.

Yue Ying shrugged his shoulders gently and said nothing more.

Initially, he had the highest status among this group of people.

Now that Su Zimo had replaced him, he was naturally displeased.

“My!”

Right then, a chuckle sounded not far away. “Isn’t that Brother Qingcheng? Why? You want to enter the Asura Battlefield as well?”

When Xie Qingcheng heard that voice, he could already guess who it was without turning back.

A group of cultivators sped over and there were exactly 101 of them. Their leader was a rotund man in yellow robes—it was Prince Yi Qiu of the Yan Yang Immortal Kingdom, a Grade 8 Heaven Immortal!

“Hahahaha!”

In the blink of an eye, Prince Yi Qiu arrived with a group of Heaven Immortal experts under his lead. When he saw the 18 cultivators on Xie Qingcheng’s side, he could not help but burst into laughter brazenly.

“My dear younger brother, you’ve only gathered so few people and you still want to enter the Asura battlefield to s.n.a.t.c.h the seal?”

Prince Yi Qiu burst into laughter. “In my opinion, you should hurry home. With the few people you brought, you’ll have to die inside before you can even catch sight of the Spirit Cloud Seal!

“Holy f*ck!”

When Prince Yi Qiu’s gaze landed on Su Zimo, he widened his eyes and said in an exaggerated manner, “No way. You’ve only recruited these few Heaven Immortals and there’s even a Grade 6 Heaven Immortal among them?! Is he here to make up the numbers?!”

“Haha!”

A series of laughter broke out from the crowd behind Prince Yi Qiu.

Among the Heaven Immortals behind Prince Yi Qiu, the weakest were Grade 8 Heaven Immortals while the rest were Grade 9 Heaven Immortals.

In everyone’s opinion, even a Grade 7 Heaven Immortal was not qualified to take part in a fight of this level, let alone a Grade 6 Heaven Immortal!

Su Zimo had a calm expression.

However, Xie Qingcheng and the others had ugly expressions. They were naturally indignant at being mocked and looked down on.

However, the other party had the advantage in numbers and they did not dare to say anything.

Yue Ying harrumphed coldly. “Although he’s a Grade 6 Heaven Immortal, he’s a paragon expert ranked 24 on the Heaven Ranking Prediction. This is Su Zimo of Heaven and Earth Academy!”

At the mention of Su Zimo, the mocking laughter on the other end gradually subsided.

Many cultivators looked at Su Zimo with surprise and caution.

Only a cold-faced man beside Prince Yi Qiu suddenly raised his head. Two cold beams of light burst forth from his eyes and he did not conceal the hostility in them!

“It’s him!”

Recognizing that person’s background, Yue Ying’s heart skipped a beat.

Rank 67 of the Heaven Ranking Prediction, Flying Immortal Sect’s Sword Immortal Pi Han!

Sword Immortal Pi Han said slowly, “It is clearly stated on the Heaven Ranking Prediction. Su Zimo only has two battle records. The reason why he’s ranked so highly is because his escape techniques are not bad.”

A few more scoffs sounded from the crowd. However, they were much more restrained than the brazen mockery from before.

No matter what, the battle of Absolute Thunder City was still an extremely powerful deterrent for most cultivators!

Prince Yi Qiu asked intentionally, “How is he compared to you, Fellow Daoist Pi Han?”

“If we’re talking about fleeing for our lives, I’ll naturally have to admit defeat.”

Sword Immortal Pi Han said, “However, if we’re talking about a normal fight to the death, I’ll consider him capable if he can even withstand ten of my sword strikes!”

Prince Yi Qiu clapped and declared loudly, “Brother Qingcheng, how about it? Shall we let the two of them spar before entering the Asura battlefield?”

Xie Qingcheng took a deep breath and suppressed the rage in his heart. “There will naturally be a chance to fight after we enter the Asura battlefield.”

“Haha!”

Prince Yi Qiu burst into laughter. “I expected that you wouldn’t dare to! Your mother is a lowlife who ascended from the lower worlds. Even if half of the bloodline that flows through your body belongs to father, it won’t change the lowlife cowardice in your mother’s bones!”
