Before Xuan Dong was defeated, he managed to unleash a fireball and Yu Nianzhen couldn’t ignore it.
He used a sword intent barrier and barely managed to block it.
However, soon after he defeated Xuan Dong, he saw soone flying onto the stage.
At first, the person was just a blur on the horizon but the pressure they exuded was more than any he had ever encountered.
[Azhen...] Jiang Yue suddenly transmitted.
His voice was full of panic and Yu Nianzhen was instantly awakened to his situation.
[Stay calm.] Yu Nianzhen transmitted and removed a jade card from his storage ring.
On instinct, he injected a strand of qi into the jade card and threw it towards the oncoming palm.
A mont later, an extrely hot fire erupted from the jade card and flew toward the palm.
When the two impacted, an incredible force erupted and Yu Nianzhen could not avoid the countershock.
His body flew backwards and the platform beneath his feet broke into small pieces.
’The attack of a nascent soul realm cultivator is not easy to handle.’ Yu Nianzhen thought and spat a mouthful of blood.
His insides were on fire and he placed his hands on his stomach, trying to relieve the pain from his internal injuries.
"What did I just see?" Soone in the audience couldn’t believe their eyes.
"The Ice Palace master attacked fellow Daoist Yu."
"I don’t care about the Ice Palace master. What I care about is the weapon fellow Daoist Yu used." Another person said and the hairs at the back of his neck trembled in lingering fear.
"Even the palace master couldn’t resist it." Soone comnted and his voice filled with schadenfreude.
As the audience watched a good show, so elders of the Ice Palace sect flew toward the palace master.
They didn’t know what Yu Nianzhen used but its power was more than the palace master’s palm.
At the mont when the two t, the palace master’s palm was torn apart and the residue power attacked the palace master.
Shui Qingqing was at the mid-level of the nascent soul realm.
Although her cultivation couldn’t be compared to the ancestor of the Great Zhu empire and so other monsters, it was beyond the reach of ordinary cultivators.
However, such a powerhouse was critically injured by the attack of an origin tempering realm cultivator.
The current situation could best be described by the phrase, ’lost his wife and the army.’
When Yu Nianzhen defeated Xuan Dong, Shui Qingqing switched off the image stones.
While everyone was in a daze, she attacked Yu Nianzhen and wanted to kill him with one blow.
Although it was a shaless thing to do, Shui Qingqing couldn’t manage too much.
She felt that killing Yu Nianzhen would lose the face of the Ice Palace sect but the alternative was more unbearable.
As such, she chose the shaless thing and planned to justify herself after the fact.
Unexpectedly, Yu Nianzhen used the jade card of a peak nascent soul realm cultivator to block her attack.
The result was that Shui Qingqing was heavily injured.
If she didn’t react at the last mont, her life would have been ended by a re origin-tempering realm cultivator.
When she thought of this, Shui Qingqing was not reconciled.
An angry storm brewed in her belly and rust-flavoured liquid clogged her throat until she was about to suffocate.
"Ancestor." A sect disciple called worriedly.
Shui Qingqing looked at the people around her and opened her mouth to say sothing.
However, what ca out of her mouth was a stream of blood which poured all over her white clothes.
"Take a pill first." An elder called and hurriedly placed a pill in the palace master’s mouth.
At the sa ti, another elder rushed to where Yu Nianzhen had fallen and raised her hand aggressively.
"You ruthless boy, I will let you pay for what you have done." She scread.
Knowing he was not in a favourable situation, Yu Nianzhen had already taken so pills and a large amount of spiritual water.
More importantly, the leaves of the tree of life had already activated and his body was more than half recovered.
Unfortunately, his sword intent was still in a state of depletion and couldn’t be used.
"So what? Did you expect him to stand there and take the attack?" A voice ca from the audience and a figure flew towards Yu Nianzhen.
"Bing Lan, you dare to collude with an outsider to harm our ancestor?"
"Aren’t you too shaless? The palace master attacked first. She can only bla herself for losing her husband and the army."
When Yu Nianzhen heard that, his lips twitched but he quickly controlled his expression.
"Most importantly, fellow Daoist Yu has won the martial contest.
As of now, Bing Lan belongs to Yang Xu. The Ice Palace sect should consider Bing Lan as water that has been poured out."
The elder was severely angered when she heard that.
She didn’t expect Bing Lan to disregard the life and death of the palace master.
Although the palace master was harsh on her in recent years, Bing Lan was still raised by her.
She shouldn’t turn her elbows out and ignore the grace of nurturing.
"You ungrateful thing." The elder roared and made to slap Bing Lan.
However, before the slap landed, an aggressive qi presence engulfed her and her movents stilled.
"Palace master, why did you stop ?" She asked.
"No matter what, Bing Lan is still the child I raised. If she fails in her manners, I will be the one to discipline her." The palace master said in a weak voice.
However, Bing Lan sneered under her veil.
’What child? Isn’t she just worried that the body will be destroyed if it endures the slap of a core formation realm cultivator?’ Bing Lan slandered.
"Palace master..."
"Look and see if Xuan Dong is still alive." Shui Qingqing reminded.
Since she failed the attack, the trend was gone.
Shui Qingqing was not ignorant.
Although the Sea Cloud sect and even Yang Xu did not co out to support Yu Nianzhen, a few elders of the sword sect were pressuring her from the side.
If not for that, she and the people from the Thunder God temple would have already taken more action.
"Yes, palace master." The elder acknowledged.
However, she did not forget to glare at Yu Nianzhen and Bing Lan before she walked away.
’It’s good she didn’t insist.’ Yu Nianzhen thought and heaved a small sigh of relief.
Although he was still in a precarious situation, danger was not imminent.
While observing his surroundings, he began to replenish his sword intent and Bing Lan stood beside him.
"How?" The palace master asked.
"He is still alive." The elder confird and the palace master heaved a sigh of relief.
She then ignored her injuries and stood up.
"ALan, everything that master does is for your own good." Shui Qingwing said and a helpless look appeared on her face.
Without waiting for Bing Lan’s reply, she sighed and her helplessness magnified.
"If you are really not willing to follow your mother’s guidance, your mother will give up."
Bing Lan shuddered when she heard that.
She instinctively wanted to take a step back but she forced herself to remain calm.
’What is she planning?’ Bing Lan wondered and millions of thoughts flashed in her mind.
However, her mind was not as deep as the palace master’s.
No matter how she thought about it, she couldn’t figure it out.
In that case, she could only take one step at a ti and react when a situation arose.
"ALan, will you think about it again? Even if everyone in the world harms you, your mother will never harm you?"
Bing Lan panicked a little with every word that ca out of Shui Qingqing’s mouth.
She hated this kind of situation where she didn’t know what ga the opponent was playing.
"Bing Lan has thought about it carefully. Since a long ti ago, Bing Lan was destined to form a Taoist contract with yang Xu."
"I see." Shui Qingqing said and a light flashed in her eyes.
The light was cruel and flashed quickly but several people saw it.
’As I thought, she is planning sothing.’ Bing Lan thought and her body tensed in preparation.
However, Shui Qingqing neither attacked nor reprimanded her.
"In that case, Alan should not bla for being ruthless." The palace master said aningfully before she continued.
"As of now, Bing Lan is no longer a disciple of my Ice Palace sect." She announced and the crowd was in uproar.
Most of the audience didn’t understand the implications but the shrewd ones did.
Bing Lan was an ice marrow physique which was an excellent yin furnace.
Without the protection of the Ice Palace sect, she would be hunted and her life would never be peaceful.
As if she hadn’t said sothing extraordinary, Shui Qingqing continued.
"As of now, Bing i, the disciple of the forr young palace master, will be the young palace master. In seven days, she will marry Xuan Dong, a young monk from the Thunder God Temple."
