Chapter 4107 - Feng Qing Yang Is Under Attack

Yang Yu Chen fell silent upon hearing the old man’s words. After a moment, he said, “Academy Master, just tell me… What do you want me to do? Just so you know, I won’t do things that are too difficult. I don’t mind exerting more effort to keep an eye on my junior brother. Don’t forget that I’m not a native of a Realm of Gods. Even if I can’t personally watch over him, I still have my doppelgangers.”

In Yang Yu Chen’s opinion, the Academy Master would not offer to help him without wanting something in exchange.

“Brat, is that the kind of person you think I am?” The old man shook his head and smiled helplessly as he said, “What if I say I want to help your junior brother because I value prodigies?”

Yang Yu Chen looked at the old man suspiciously. “Then, if you don’t want anything from me, you must want something from my junior brother. What are you going to ask from him in exchange for your help?”

The old man shook his head again and said with a smile, “What could I possibly want from him? You’re smart, but sometimes, you’re too smart for your own good. Don’t worry. I have no intention of asking him for anything in return. If you really insist on knowing my purpose, then just consider it as me wanting to do him a favor. If I protect him, he’ll remember this kind gesture. In the future, if I ask him for help, he won’t refuse me.”

Yang Yu Chen was stunned by these words. However, outwardly, he asked calmly, “Academy Master, are you so optimistic about my junior brother?”

After all, for the Academy Master of the Myriad Laws Academy wanting Duan Ling Tian to owe him a favor implied that he thought Duan Ling Tian had a bright future ahead of him. There was no guarantee that Duan Ling Tian would live up to his potential. Even prodigies could die prematurely.

Perhaps, if Duan Ling Tian had a supreme powerhouse watching over him, he would be guaranteed to soar to great heights in the future. Even then, he would have to stay by the supreme powerhouse’s side forever. How could that be possible?

Duan Ling Tian was highly talented, but he had no background or strong support.

Why would the Academy Master of the Myriad Laws Academy go to such lengths for Duan Ling Tian?

The old man replied with a smile, “I trust your judgment. Moreover, there’s no harm in taking this small and negligible risk.”

Yang Yu Chen did not comment on those words. Instead, he said, “Academy Master, you don’t just trust my judgment, right? I’m sure you’ve already learned about my junior brother’s past, right?”

The old man said calmly, “Is that important? No matter how talented he is or what kind of miraculous feats he achieved, there’s no such thing as a 100% guarantee. In any case, like I said earlier, I’m merely taking a small risk by helping him.”

Yang Yu Chen remained silent. He could hear the truth in the old man’s words.

The old man did not speak again as he waited for Yang Yu Chen’s reply.

About fifteen minutes later, Yang Yu Chen finally said, “Academy Master, how about this? Why don’t I do something for you in exchange for you helping my junior brother?”

Upon hearing these words, a bright smile appeared on the old man’s face before he said, “Alright. Why don’t you leave the Inner Palace faction and join the Legacy faction?”

Yang Yu Chen was slightly startled by this request. Then, he said with a bitter smile, “Academy Master, you know this is impossible. If I do that, my Eldest Senior Sister won’t let me off the hook. At that time, not only will I be in trouble, but you’ll also be in trouble.”

Upon hearing this, the old man smiled unnaturally and said, “I was just kidding, I was just kidding… Even if I want you to join the Legacy faction, I won’t ask you to leave the Inner Palace faction.”

A hint of envy could be seen in the old man’s eyes. It was as though he envied the ‘Eldest Senior Sister’ whom Yang Yu Chen mentioned.

Yang Yu Chen said seriously, “Academy Master, I can’t decide on this matter. I’d rather use my doppelganger to protect him. I can’t agree to this on his behalf.”

“I’ve already expected you to say this. Forget it. I’ll wait for him to come out and speak to him.” the old man said with a sigh before he left, vanishing into thin air.

After the old man left, Yang Yu Chen muttered to himself with a skeptical expression on his face, “This old man isn’t one to do something unless he’s completely confident. It seems like he’s very optimistic about junior brother’s future. How strange. Does he know something I don’t?”

At this moment, Yang Yu Chen suddenly recalled a rumor. It was said that since its founding, the Myriad Laws Academy possessed an artifact called the Divine Scrying Mirror. It could be used to look into the past and future of anyone from the lower realms and the Realms of Gods. He could not help but wonder if the Academy Master had seen something in the Divine Scrying Mirror.

“Moreover, he broke traditions and was adamant about choosing me as his successor… Did he really see something? Perhaps, he saw that I was best suited for the position compared to the other members of the Legacy faction?”

Yang Yu Chen was immersed in his thoughts. Although there were many things he had yet to figure out, he was not completely clueless either.

In fact, there was no rule prohibiting members of the Inner Palace faction from becoming the Academy Master of the Myriad Laws Academy. It was just that since the beginning, the Academy Masters were all from the Legacy faction. The current Academy Master was also the most outstanding member of the Legacy faction in the past.

…

Since the beginning of time, there had always been 18 Realms of Gods.

Apart from the Divine Offering Land, the Sanction Land, and the Profound Energy Land, there were another 15 Realms of Gods.

At this time, in a Realm of Gods.

A figure flew in the air and quickly hid in a valley, looking slightly flustered.

As soon as the figure hid away, many figures flew over.

One of them said, “Liu He, stay here and search this valley. That Feng Qing Yang might be hiding here…”

As the other figures flew away, Liu He’s eyes were bright as he muttered to himself, “Feng Qing Yang mastered the Sword Dao, the law of time, and the law of destruction… Some said that he obtained a legacy of a supreme powerhouse. Moreover, it’s said that anyone can access that place… As long as I find him, I’ll be able to force him to bring me there. Is he really hiding here? If I can find and capture him, I’ll hit the jackpot!”

The middle-aged man, Liu He, was a sectless cultivator and an advanced Lord of Gods. He had been asked by his friends to help them search for Feng Qing Yang.

At this time, Feng Qing Yang, who was hiding behind a tall cliff, wore a cold expression on his face. “An advanced Lord of Gods? My doppelganger was previously destroyed by an advanced Emperor of Gods, and now, a group of people is looking for trouble with me. If there weren’t two rudimentary Emperors of Gods among them, I wouldn’t have had to flee for thousands of miles.” Then, a contemptuous expression appeared on his face as he continued to murmur to himself, “Don’t they know that I’m not afraid of ordinary advanced Lords of Gods?”

After a moment, Feng Qing Yang flashed and reappeared near Liu He, the middle-aged man. He looked at Liu He coldly as though he was looking at a dead man.

When Liu He turned and saw Feng Qing Yang, his eyes lit up. “You’re here! It seems like I hit the jackpot!”

Liu He was worried that Feng Qing Yang would escape so he quickly released his Divine Energy. Even if Feng Qing Yang was just a rudimentary Lord of Gods, he did not dare to underestimate Feng Qing Yang. After all, there were talks about Feng Qing Yang killing several intermediate Lords of Gods. Nonetheless, he was still confident. He, as advanced Lord of Gods, was different from intermediate Lords of Gods, after all.

“Today, I’ll kill an advanced Lord of Gods for the first time,” Feng Qing Yang said in a glacial tone. He had yet to kill an advanced Lord of Gods before. Previously, among the intermediate Lords of Gods he killed, two of them were extraordinary intermediate Lords of Gods comparable to an ordinary advanced Lord of Gods. Moreover, when he killed those two people, he still had energy left.

Swoosh!

As soon as Liu He made a move, Feng Qing Yang did not hesitate. Sword rays shot out in all directions, and the air seemed to ripple. At the same time, his sword intent wreaked havoc in the valley and the cliff, leaving countless marks behind.

The marks Feng Qing Yang left behind were not intentional. He had just drawn his sword, but his sword intent was so powerful that it left marks behind. After coming to the Realm of Gods, his Sword Dao had improved again. It was due to his Sword Dao that planted the seeds of his current trouble. He was betrayed, and in the end, he had to flee from a group of sectless cultivators.

“You and I have no grudges. You can only blame your greed for your death today!” Feng Qing Yang said indifferently as he raised his sword.

Liu He scoffed when he heard Feng Qing Yang’s words. He, as an advanced Lord of Gods, naturally felt these words were ridiculous coming from a rudimentary Lord of Gods. However, in the next moment, his disdainful expression disappeared.

Swoosh!

Liu He found that Feng Qing Yang had easily deflected his attack with his sword. Even after he used his Divine Energy and attacked with all his might, Feng Qing Yang still deflected it.

‘H-how’s this possible? Is he really just a rudimentary Lord of Gods?! His sword intent and his Sword Dao are much more terrifying than they’re rumored to be! What kind of Sword Dao is this? How can it be so powerful?!’

Liu He was in shock and disbelief as his attacks were destroyed in just a few breaths. It did not take long before sword rays pierced his forehead, chest, and body.
