Chapter 8

Xuan Yi floated down from the stage and lifted Bai Weiwei up.

By doing so, he ignored the opinions of the people in his sect in front of outsiders.

It was no less than slapping their faces.

Seeing this, the elders on the stage looked gloomy. They were extremely unhappy with Xuan Yi.

“Hehe, so this is the genius elder of your Profound Sword Sect? He’s just so so.” Wang Ye smiled faintly. His eyes were filled with ridicule.

Li Changqing, who was sitting next to him, shook his head and said with contempt, “The Profound Sword Sect is in the decline. I’m afraid that in a few years, they will probably be ranked at the bottom of the top 100 sects in the south domain.”

“At the bottom? Sect Master Li, you’re too kind. I think it will be removed from the list,” Wang Ye said immediately.

“Hahaha…”

Hearing the ridiculing words from the sect masters of the Myriad Beasts Sect and the Heaven Array Sect, many people from the top 100 sects laughed out loud.

Obviously, they did not take the fierce sword sect seriously.

Qing Xuzi frowned and his expression changed from puzzled to hesitant and then doubtful.

He was beginning to wonder if handing over the leadership of the convention to Xuan Yi was the right decision.

Seeing the doubt on the face of the sect master, Elder Ma became excited.

Just now, Xuan Yi had ignored him and went to Bai Weiwei’s side. In front of him, Xuan Yi lifted up Bai Weiwei, whose family were enemies with Elder Ma.

He was angered by Xuan Yi’s ignorance!

When he saw that even the sect master did not understand Xuan Yi’s action, he decided to add fuel to the fire.

“Elder Xuan, I advise you not to interfere. This kind of responsibility is not something that you can shoulder. You can ignore me and others. But do you have no respect for the sect master? You should know that the sect’s interests are above anything else, right?”

Ma Wuliang’s words did not stir up any emotions in Xuan Yi because to him, Ma Wuliang was like a fly. If this fly annoyed him, he did not mind teaching it a lesson.

Xuan Yi released a powerful aura which contained all his cultivation strength.

With Xuan Yi as the center, a strong wind swirled and spread out.

The powerful aura made everyone present unable to breathe, especially Ma Wuliang, who was closest to Xuan Yi; he even felt suffocated.

He had thought that his cultivation strength at the first level of the Law Enforcement Realm was not much different from Xuan Yi’s. Even if there was some difference, he thought he had enough strength to protect himself. However, facing this kind of pressure, he could do nothing but submit!

One had to know that Xuan Yi’s cultivation strength was only one level higher than his, but he felt the other party’s power was no less than the sect leader’s.

This person was so powerful. Oh, no! To be able to make him feel this way despite the fact that they were in the same realm meant that Xuan Yi’s talent far exceeded his.

This person definitely had the ability to fight people with higher cultivation levels than his own!

He had known all along that Xuan Yi was highly talented in cultivation. After all, there were only a few twenty-year-old Law Enforcement Realm cultivators in the entire south domain!

However, he felt that he had still underestimated Xuan Yi. No wonder the sect master placed so much importance on him.

Ma Wuliang was filled with regret.

“Elder… Elder Xuan! It’s unfair to the other disciples! Any of them is better than Bai Weiwei!” Elder Ma braced himself and said.

“If Elder Xuan still wants to waste the resources of the sect on such a weakling, it’s unfair to the others!

“If you don’t give us an explanation, I’m sure the other disciples will be dissatisfied.”

Immediately, the disciples of the Black Sword Sect looked at Elder Ma with respect.

In their eyes, Elder Ma’s righteous words made him a real Law Enforcement Elder.

On the other hand, Xuan Yi’s behavior was just hard to understand!

Xuan Yi stood in the middle of the martial arts practice field. His white clothes rustled in the wind, and his eyes flashed with cold light.

“I don’t need to explain my actions to anyone!”

Xuan Yi’s words were firm and decisive.

His invisible aura soared again, and Ma Wuliang broke out in cold sweat.

Ma Liang was even more miserable, lying on the ground like a dead dog, not moving at all.

Xuan Yi didn’t want to kill him on the spot, otherwise, he would have been crushed into minced meat.

“Elder Xuan… Elder Xuan, please…stop…” Ma Wuliang could not hold on any longer and begged for mercy.

“Humph!”

Xuan Yi snorted coldly and a huge spirit pressure was exerted on Ma Wuliang, injuring him immediately. Clearly, he had got serious internal injuries.

Xuan Yi could see the sinister look in the latter’s eyes. He wouldn’t kill Ma Wuliang right here because he didn’t want to reveal his true strength in front of the other sect masters.

They were enemies now. This time, Xuan Yi only collected some interest.

On the stage, Qing Xuzi felt this powerful pressure, and the doubt in his eyes disappeared.

The reason was very simple. Three months ago, Qing Xuzi had seen that Xuan Yi was only at the first level of the Law Enforcement Realm.

But three months later, he broke through to the second level!

One had to know that every level of the Law Enforcement Realm required a long time to cultivate and accumulate. There were tens of thousands of cultivators in the world, and the vast majority of them were stuck in the Law Enforcement Realm for hundreds of years until they died of old age, unable to make a single step forward!

But Xuan Yi’s talent far surpassed his! He was an absolute genius!

With Xuan Yi’s talent, how could he be wrong? He must knew what he was doing.

Qing Xuzi’s face lit up with joy, and he knew his decision was right.

What he did not know was that Xuan Yi had just entered the Law Enforcement Realm when he stood out from the last Sword Worship Assembly. 

But after taking in Lin Yingxue as his disciple, he had soared by one level. After taking in Lin Hu, he had soared by another level.

Cultivation? Not at all. He only grew fish, flowers, and plants in the back mountain every day and became stronger whenever taking in a disciple…

At this moment…

The young girl in Xuan Yi’s arms stared at him without blinking. Her brain was short of oxygen, and she felt as if she was in a dream.

Her beautiful eyes instantly turned red-brimmed.

No one knew how hard the ten years of cultivation had been for her.

In her memories, she had always cultivated alone.

She had relied on her determination and strong will to stagger all the way to this day.

And now, when she was the weakest and most in need of protection, this strong and majestic man appeared by her side.

He had defended her and solved all her problems.

The obsession in her heart instantly disappeared because today she got all the rewards for her previous hard work.

When Xuan Yi saw Bai Weiwei looking at him with a burning gaze, he said in a gentle voice, “Am I good-looking?”

“Uh, Elder Xuan is…good-looking…” Bai Weiwei blushed and said without thinking.

“Oh? You still call me elder,” Xuan Yi said.

“Ah, master… Master…”

Bai Weiwei’s body stiffened as she realized that she was in Xuan Yi’s arms. She felt blood surge up into her brain.

Now that she had let go of her obsession, she began to feel the fatigue due to the energy depletion. As her blood surged up into her head, she fainted in Xuan Yi’s arms, feeling relieved.

Looking at the young girl in his arms, Xuan Yi felt somewhat helpless.

Now that he had taken in a disciple, there was no need for him to remain here.

He turned around and said to Qing Xuzi, “Sect master, if the sect objects to me taking in Bai Weiwei as my disciple, the sect can remove me from the Law Enforcement Elders!”

After saying this, he did not care about what others thought of him and rushed towards the back of the mountain with Bai Weiwei in his arms.

The corners of Qing Xuzi’s mouth twitched as he stood on the stage.

How could he do that? If he did not treasure the great genius and drove him out of the sect, then who’d help the sect rise up in the world?

A long-awaited voice came in Xuan Yi’s mind.
