Chapter 1547 - Work From Inside and Out

If he can’t rush back in time, then… 

“All the Xuan Masters stay behind. The rest, move back first,” commanded Nan Suhuai.

Once he said this, the crowd had no objections and immediately complied. Perhaps because their core was back, everyone felt much more at ease.

Seeing that all the elders acted according to Nan Suhuai’s instructions, Yi Wenzhuo felt indignant. He knew that these people actually believed in Nan Suhuai and respected him genuinely. That was also the reason why many people chose to stay in Ling Xiao Academy as they took him into consideration.

1

This could be seen by how peaceful the academy was when Nan Suhuai wasn’t around the past few years.

However, these people’s attitudes were greatly different toward him, the vice-director.

Yi Wenzhuo knew that everyone respectfully called him ‘vice-director’ on the surface, but in actual fact, not many of them actually cared about him. This was also one of the reasons why he was filled with so much vengeance.

1

He was Nan Suhuai’s senior brother. In terms of skills and status, he was better in both. But at the end of the day, all the good reputation and benefits were left for Nan Suhuai alone!

Everyone knew that Ling Xiao Academy’s director Nan Suhuai was extremely talented and outstanding. However, how many people remembered him?

Yi Wenzhuo took a deep breath in and turned around to look at Million Wine Mountain. There isn’t much meaning in thinking about this now. I want to see how Nan Suhuai and the rest plan on surviving this ordeal! The Heaven-Locking Formation collapsing… It isn’t that easy to repair it! 

…

Whoosh!

After all the Xuan Masters went to their places around Million Wine Mountain, Nan Suhuai’s figure moved and rushed toward the center.

His movement techniques were agile, and his movements were light. In the blink of an eye, he was already standing in the sky.

His feet were pointing to the fountain on the peak of Million Wine Mountain!

Nan Suhuai looked down.

At this point, the Heaven-Locking Formation’s strength had already gradually left the surroundings of the fountain.

The surroundings were brilliant. Only this middle position was still gray and dark.

The night sky was dark, and there were no stars or moon. From here, one could see light flickering on the fountain in a dark and mysterious manner.

Those two people’s auras seemed to be isolated, and they couldn’t investigate it.

Nan Suhuai’s expression turned solemn, and he raised both his hands.

They were a pair of extremely white and smooth hands that glowed with a faint light, like intricately engraved, superior, and clear jade.

His feet moved slightly, and his palms moved.

Countless rays of light rapidly formed before him as his fingers moved! Very quickly, an outline of a Xuan formation was formed!

As time passed, increasingly more rays of light gathered from all directions and continuously filled that Xuan formation, causing it to be more complicated and perfect!

Nan Suhuai’s expression was nonchalant, and his actions were light. It was as if he casually took a small portion of Heaven and Earth force and easily converted it into his own strength, forming the Xuan formation in the end!

“Grandmaster!” When the surrounding elders saw this scene, they were taken aback.

To be able to merge the Heaven and Earth Force so perfectly and circulate the other forces to form such a complicated Xuan formation… This could only be done by a Grandmaster!

“Could it be that the director had been busy breaking through for the past few years outside?” Elder Bo Yan couldn’t help but mutter as shock flashed across his eyes.

Above a King Xuan Master were Great King Xuan Masters. Above that would be the Grandmasters.

On the surface, it seemed like it was just a level of difference between a Great King Xuan Master and a Grandmaster Xuan Master. But in actual fact, it was extremely, extremely difficult to take this step.

In Ling Xiao Academy, nobody had broken through to become a Grandmaster for the past hundreds of years. Even someone extremely talented like Nan Suhuai was stuck as a Great King Xuan Master for an extremely long time!

“That’s great!” At the side, Elder Ouyang and the others were elated.

“The director is now a Grandmaster. He should be more confident in handling this Heaven-Locking Formation!”

Upon hearing this, the crowd nodded respectively and felt much safer.

Yi Wenzhuo stood with one hand behind his back, stared at Nan Suhuai in mid-air tightly, and clenched his fists. His veins popped up. Nan Suhuai actually… beat me again! 

During this period of time, he faintly felt that he was going to break through to become a Grandmaster. But after much waiting and many attempts, he was still off by a little.

Originally, he didn’t care much about it because he was confident that he would break through sooner or later. But seeing that Nan Suhuai had beat him to it, he instantly felt extremely indignant!

However, such matters couldn’t be rushed. He could only hold it in temporarily.

I’ll see if Nan Suhuai and the rest can save Ling Xiao Academy now! If they can’t… Nan Suhuai will be a sinner for years to come! It won’t be too late for me to take action then! 

…

In no time, a gigantic Xuan formation appeared in front of Nan Suhuai.

Nan Suhuai’s expression was solemn as he pushed both his hands forward. “Jingshou formation!”

Such a large Xuan formation started to descend upon Million Wine Mountain slowly! There seemed to be the faint sound of tidal waves.

The distance between the two Xuan formations kept decreasing! The two parties’ forces started hitting each other and overlapping!

Light shone everywhere!

Even the surrounding space was crushed by the violent forces and collapsed inch by inch.

“Everyone, listen! Gather!” Nan Suhuai suddenly yelled!

The crowd was long prepared. When they heard this, they took action without hesitation!

Light shone brightly on the Jingshou formation!

From afar, the two Xuan formations looked like gigantic wheels that overlapped each other.

The Heaven-Locking Formation was urged by that strange force and hastened its speed. Yet, the Jingshou formation’s appearance was to slow it down again!

Even though the Jingshou formation’s level wasn’t as high as the Heaven-Locking Formation, it could fight against the latter after gathering the elders’ forces!

Slowly, the Heaven-Locking Formation’s speed indeed slowed down.

The silver lines which had left their original positions started to be affected by this force and returned to their original places.

Everything seemed orderly.

When the elders saw this, they all heaved a sigh of relief but still didn’t dare to relax.

Nothing much had happened for the past twenty-odd days, yet something happened on the last day, and it even occurred under their tight supervision!

The force suppressed under the fountain was clearly beyond their expectations. Hence, they could never truly relax until the last minute!

…

Everyone’s force was depleting crazily. Some of the elders’ faces started turning pale.

They were all relying on their willpower. But seeing that the situation on Million Wine Mountain was getting better, the stress in their hearts was relieved quite a bit.

“Listen! The knocks seem to have disappeared!” someone suddenly yelled in the silence.

The crowd recovered their senses and instinctively went to listen.

The knocks had indeed disappeared!

At this point, Nan Suhuai was confident! He looked at Million Wine Mountain and suddenly crushed the green jade plaque around his waist!

Bang!

The next moment, a figure suddenly rushed out from the middle of the fountain!
