Qingyang King

"Clang!"

The sound of a clear and bright sword rang out!

As the true qi flowed in, a faint golden energy thread appeared at the tip of the sword!

Su Zhan held the sword, swinging it casually, feeling the various runes and sword materials, and a satisfied expression appeared on his face.

This sword was much stronger than the Extreme Yang Sword.

Furthermore, after activating the "Gigantification" rune inside it, its length could reach five meters.

In the future, if he got tired, he could ride the sword while lying down—it was very spacious.

"I will keep this sword. Actually, you didn't need to come. I have no intention towards you."

Su Zhan threw the True Martial Sword into his storage ring and said to Xia Qitian.

"It's my own inner turmoil! It has nothing to do with you, Master Su!" Xia Qitian finally breathed a sigh of relief and showed a sincere expression.

"Well, let's leave it at that. There's no need to mention it again."

Su Zhan nodded and looked towards Li Qingyang, saying, "Don't stay here. You will scare others. Just find a resting place on the mountaintop and wait for me below Baiyun Peak tomorrow."

Upon hearing Su Zhan's commanding tone, Li Qingyang felt annoyed and clenched his fist.

But when he thought about Su Zhan's strength just now, he relaxed his fist and answered, "Okay."

With everything settled, Su Zhan walked towards Baiyun Peak.

Seeing Su Zhan leave, Xia Qitian finally let go of his worries completely.

"Brother, did you hear that?"

Xia Qihai smiled and said, "I told you, Brother Su is generous. Even if you didn't give him the True Martial Sword, he wouldn't have come looking for you. Now, do you regret it?"

"Regret?" Xia Qitian shook his head repeatedly. "I would only regret it if I didn't come! With the power Su Zhan displayed today, even if I gave him ten True Martial Swords just to directly obtain his forgiveness, I wouldn't regret it!

A fierce man who can even kill a God Transformation Realm expert... Ninth Brother, if you offend someone like that and don't get his forgiveness directly, can you sleep at night?"

"Well, that's true..." Xia Qihai looked at Su Zhan walking into the distance and nodded.

"Let's go! Let's inform Father about today's events. From now on, our royal family's attitude towards the Yuntian Sword Sect may have to change!"

As Xia Qitian spoke, he left with Xia Qihai.

At this moment, Su Zhan had just arrived on the stone path in front of Baiyun Peak.

"Senior Brother Su is so handsome!"

"Senior Brother Su is so strong!"

"Senior Brother Su, look at me, look at me!"

...

Countless disciples of the Yuntian Sword Sect rushed towards him like a tide, their expressions filled with excitement. Some female disciples even blushed with fanaticism, showing passionate madness.

Seeing the female disciples almost stripping their clothes due to their fanaticism, Su Zhan quickened his pace, lightly stepped on his toes, and ascended Baiyun Peak.

This is frightening.

So many female disciples... even the Mentality Halo will have a hard time enduring!

Shortly after he returned to Cave Mansion No. 17, Chen Changfeng arrived.

"Su Zhan, this is the treasure brought by the four major factions for peace negotiations. Some processed items, like medicinal seeds, have been handed over to the elders responsible for our sect's affairs. The rest is here!"

Su Zhan shook his head. "Since this is the treasure for reconciliation with the Sword Sect, it should belong to the Sword Sect!"

"Su Zhan, don't refuse. If it weren't for you, would they have sought reconciliation? We have been in a life-and-death struggle with the Yuntian Sword Sect for a long time! You deserve it!" Chen Changfeng smiled. "Besides, you have completed the sword technique from the previous generation of Sect Masters, which is already a great contribution to the sect. You deserve it."

"Alright, I will accept it."

Su Zhan didn't refuse any further.

After chatting for a while, Chen Changfeng left, and Su Zhan's gaze fell on the treasure.

The first item was the secret technique from the Zhengyang Sect— Zhengyang True Body!

Su Zhan curiously took the jade slip and glanced at it, then lost interest.

This lousy secret technique actually required sacrificing lifespan to use, and after using it, one would fall into an extreme period of weakness for a long time.

The side effects were too severe, and judging from Yun Hengtian's example, this secret technique was not impressive either.

With that in mind, Su Zhan continued to inspect the other treasures.

The second item was the Qingyun Pill, which could quickly enhance a cultivator's cultivation in the Core Yuan Realm.

Su Zhan had heard of such pills, which were extremely rare. With his current cultivation, if he refined this pill and cultivated for a few more days, he might be able to reach the middle stage of the Core Yuan Realm.

The third item was a red bracelet named Xuanhuo Bracelet.

It could unleash raging flames to injure enemies.

After inspecting the three treasures, Su Zhan ate, bathed, and rested briefly in the courtyard.

When night fell, he began to cultivate.

The miniatur spiritual vein pearl was activated, instantly increasing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in his cave mansion tenfold!

He swallowed the Qingyun Pill.

Starlight scattered from the sky, merging into his body.

In this situation, his cultivation advanced rapidly.

The next day.

The Qingyun Pill was completely refined, and Su Zhan's cultivation already very close reached the middle stage of the Core Yuan Realm!

Descending from Baiyun Peak, Li Qingyang was already waiting there.

After a brief exchange, Li Qingyang flew away.

Su Zhan stepped onto the Divine Wind Boat and followed, heading towards the Qingyang Kingdom.

...

Qingyang Kingdom.

Royal Palace.

As one of the top four powers among the fifteen southern countries.

The royal palace of the Qingyang Kingdom is even larger than the Xia Nation, filled with intricate formations and hidden experts!

Inside the grand hall of the palace.

The Qingyang King, who has reached the Half-Step God Transformation Realm in cultivation, is reading a report.

"Your Majesty! Senior Li has returned!"

At that moment, the chief steward, who has reached the Core Yuan Realm, entered the hall and knelt respectfully.

"Oh? So fast? I thought Senior Li would take some time to wander and have fun!"

The Qingyang King smiled and then said, "Now that Senior Li has returned, Su Zhan from the Xia Nation might already be dead. Amazing! A genius like him should have died for the comfort of our Qingyang Kingdom from the beginning!"

"Your Majesty, this humble servant took a glance and saw a young man following Senior Li. It seems to be the recently famous Su Zhan with his divine body!"

"Did Senior Li bring him back?"

The Qingyang King paused for a moment and said, "Could it be that Senior Li likes this young man's talent and has accepted him as a disciple?"

"I'm not sure, but it's very possible. Otherwise, how can we explain that Su Zhan is still alive in this world?"

The chief steward chuckled and said, "But in any case, this is the fortune of our Qingyang Kingdom! Su Zhan is truly divine body, recognized as the most talented genius among the fifteen countries in Tiannan! If he serves our Qingyang Kingdom in the future, he will be a great asset to Your Majesty!"

"That's right!"

The Qingyang King laughed heartily. "If that's the case, why should Qingyang worry about not prospering? Let's go! Let's go and welcome Senior Li!"

"Yes!"

The two of them walked out of the grand hall.

Soon, they met Li Qingyang and Su Zhan in a square.

The Qingyang King bowed respectfully. "Senior Li!"

"Mmm."

Li Qingyang responded.

Su Zhan's gaze fell on the Qingyang King's royal robe as he spoke, "You must be the Qingyang King? I heard Li Qingyang say that I need a special key from you to understand the Qingyang Sacred Diagram. If that's the case, lead the way!"

The Qingyang King was momentarily stunned. He looked at Su Zhan and suddenly became angry. He said, "How dare you! Even if you have become Senior Li's disciple, you have no right to disrespect me, but how dare you address Senior Li by name? You don't know what's good for you! Apologize to Senior Li immediately!"

As these words were spoken, Li Qingyang, who was still relatively calm, suddenly felt shocked.

He realized the terrifying consequences of Su Zhan's anger and shivered down his spine!

"Slap!"

Li Qingyang, in anger, slapped the face of the Qingyang King, whose status was second only to his own in the Qingyang Kingdom. In a state of confusion, Li Qingyang angrily shouted:

"Who do you think you are? How dare you speak to Young Master Su like that! You are the disrespectful one!!!"
