Chapter 162: Chapter 162: You Say He is a Bad Student?
Thudâ
In just an instant,
the incomparably strong finger force pierced through the Spiritual Power Palm Print.
And struck Nangong Xiaoyunâs chest.
Crackâ
The Heart Protection Mirror she wore shattered instantly, blocking the blow.
...
But the residual force still sent her flying several zhang away.
Always composed You Yunziâs face stiffened.
He flicked his sleeve and urgently dashed out to catch the falling Nangong Xiaoyun.
Nangong Xiaoyun clutched her aching chest.
Her eyes widened: âShe⊠she learned the Earth-level Finger Technique!â
You Yunzi was even more astonished than she was.
He looked at Jiang Fan in disbelief and murmured: âHow is this possible?â
âHe actually succeeded in teaching the Heavenly Ruined Finger to Liu Qingxian?â
âIn such a short time, how did he comprehend that technique to such an extent?â
The entire audience erupted into deafening shouts.
âSenior Sister Liu⊠won?â
âOur Green Cloud Sect won!â
âWe defeated the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion!â
The unexpected victory left them uncontrollably excited.
The disciples of the Green Cloud Sect defeating the first Prodigy of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion was an honor unheard of among the other Eight Sects!
The disciples were astonished by the victory.
Liu Wuchen and the elders were shocked by the Finger Technique Liu Qingxian had just displayed!
Feng Guchan couldnât believe it: âEarth-level Technique? How could it be an Earth-level Technique?â
âWhere did she get an Earth-level Technique?â
He couldnât help but look at Liu Wuchen,
suspecting it was him who taught it.
Who knew, Liu Wuchenâs expression was even more astonished than his.
âWhere did Qingxian get an Earth-level Technique?â
âWho taught it to her?â
At this moment,
You Yunzi walked over, his face quite sullen, and said: âSect Master Liu, you have nurtured your daughter well!â
âCongratulations!â
The first Prodigy of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion actually lost to a disciple of the Green Cloud Sect.
If the news got out, it would really damage the dignity of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.
If he had known, he should not have let Nangong Xiaoyun spar.
Liu Wuchen hastily returned the greeting: âMiss Nangong was just being kind.â
You Yunzi indeed felt a bit resentful.
He didnât think Nangong Xiaoyun lost to Liu Qingxian, but lost to Jiang Fan, that incredibly powerful elder!
Without his guidance, Liu Qingxian couldnât even break through to the Core Formation Realm.
Let alone defeat Nangong Xiaoyun?
âSect Master Liu, thereâs no need to be modest. Liu Qingxianâs victory is all due to your Elder Jiang.â You Yunzi sighed:
âHaving such an elder is a great fortune for your Green Cloud Sect!â
Hmm?
Liu Wuchen was stunned, puzzled: âElder Jiang?â
âVice Pavilion Master You, could you be mistaken?â
The Green Cloud Sect had nine elders, and none of them were surnamed Jiang.
Eh?
At this point, not only You Yunzi was dumbfounded.
Nangong Xiaoyun was also stunned.
How could it be wrong?
Jiang Fan was standing right next to Liu Wuchen, wasnât he?
What mistake was there to make?
Nangong Xiaoyun asked with a bewildered expression: âThen who is he?â
Could it be he wasnât actually named Jiang Fan, and his surname wasnât Jiang?
Following her pointed finger, Liu Wuchen looked at Jiang Fan in astonishment.
Although he didnât know why someone like Nangong Xiaoyun would care about a little disciple like Jiang Fan,
he quickly introduced: âThis is my unworthy disciple, Jiang Fan.â
âJiang Fan, come and pay respects to Miss Nangong.â
âShe is the first Prodigy of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, with extraordinary Martial Path talent and superb comprehension.â
âAny guidance from her will benefit you for a lifetime.â
Jiang Fan nodded.
He came before You Yunzi and Nangong Xiaoyun, cupped his fists, and said:
âVice Pavilion Master You, Miss Nangong.â
âJiang Fan of the Green Cloud Sect, greets you both.â
Although he had interacted with them before, this was the first formal introduction.
You Yunzi stared dumbfoundedly at Jiang Fan, his eyes vacant.
Nangong Xiaoyun, on the other hand, seemed to suffer a minor brain freeze.
The Elder Jiang who had once slain the Beast King with a single sword, unleashing a sky-shaking Sword Qi!
The Elder Jiang who could summon boundless Spiritual Energy at will, with an incredibly powerful Spirit Root!
The Elder Jiang with heavenly comprehension, who mastered an Earth-level Finger Technique in just a few hours and taught it to Liu Qingxian in half a day!
Youâre telling me,
he wasnât an elder at all,
but merely a disciple of the Green Cloud Sect,
and a⊠unworthy disciple at that!
Which familyâs unworthy disciple could be this extraordinary?
Something seemed stuck in You Yunziâs throat, and after stammering for a long time, he finally said: âSect Master Liu.â
âYou said⊠he is an unworthy disciple?â
Liu Wuchen felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.
He was extremely unwilling to be asked about Jiang Fan.
This disciple without a Spirit Root was simply his shame.
But since You Yunzi specifically asked, he had no choice but to brace himself and say: âHe is indeed an unworthy disciple, offending Vice Pavilion Master Youâs eyes.â
Nangong Xiaoyun stood dazed, unable to believe Liu Wuchenâs assessment.
Such an extraordinary disciple, he actually called him unworthy?
She swallowed hard and said: âSect Master Liu, could there be some misunderstanding?â
Misunderstanding?
Liu Wuchen looked embarrassed and sighed: âMiss Nangong doesnât know.â
âIt is not that I am belittling this disciple, but he truly is unworthy.â
âBecause, he is a disciple without a Spirit Root.â
What?
Without a Spirit Root?
The terrifying Spirit Root in the Martial Soul Hall that summoned Spiritual Energy from a radius of several miles, what was that then?
Nangong Xiaoyun opened her mouth to speak: âYou⊠Mmm mmm mmmâŠâ
You Yunzi, his gaze shifting, quickly covered her mouth to stop her from speaking further.
He said to Liu Wuchen: âSect Master Liu, having disturbed you for many days, we will take our leave now.â
âPlease act on the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilionâs notification as soon as possible.â
Liu Wuchen cupped his hands and watched as the two of them left on a flying crane.
They had left the Green Cloud Sect quite a distance.
Nangong Xiaoyun broke free from You Yunziâs grasp, struggling to catch her breath, she said: âAre you trying to suffocate me?â
âWhy didnât you let me speak?â
You Yunzi, now trembling with excitement, said: âTreasure! We discovered an invaluable treasure!â
âAn extraordinary Prodigy with an unparalleled Spirit Root, and Liu Wuchen has the eyes but fails to see, treating him as an unworthy disciple!â
UhâŠ
Nangong Xiaoyun began to understand why You Yunzi stopped her from questioning further.
âVice Pavilion Master, are you planning to recruit Jiang Fan under your command?â
You Yunzi exclaimed excitedly: âOf course!â
âOnce this Prodigy is nurtured, he will undoubtedly become a dominant figure in the future!â
âIt will benefit both me and the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion immensely!â
âAs soon as the Beast Tide is resolved, I will immediately find a way to bring him to the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion!â
Nangong Xiaoyun suddenly understood.
Then quickly asked with some doubt: âBut, what if someone else discovers his extraordinary nature?â
Who knows when the Beast Tide will end?
And Jiang Fan is so extraordinary, it would be hard for others not to notice his excellence.
In that case, it wouldnât necessarily go as You Yunzi wished.
Hearing this, You Yunzi also felt anxious, if this monstrous talent got snatched by someone else, he would be mad and shorten his life by three years!
âHumph! Whoever tries to snatch him, Iâll fight them to the death!â He said fiercely.
Nangong Xiaoyun then asked:
âBut, what if itâs Liu Wuchen who discovers him?â
Uhâ
You Yunzi was stunned.
Jiang Fan was their disciple, if Liu Wuchen suddenly realized Jiang Fanâs extraordinary nature,
of course, he wouldnât let go of this disciple.
After pondering for a while, You Yunzi snorted: âSo what if he discovers it?â
âJiang Fan has been treated as an unworthy disciple, what right does he have to continue being his master?â
Hearing that You Yunzi intended to snatch Jiang Fan by force,
Nangong Xiaoyun clicked her tongue.
When the time comes, she wondered how deeply Liu Wuchen would regret it.
