The Battle Through Heaven
Elder He
Xiao Yan's face was cold and indifferent. The greenish purple lotus in his hand ruthlessly smashed into Lei Na's shocked and horrified face. From the looks of the ferocious power, it was clear that/it was the first one had no intention of showing mercy.
”Stop!”
However, just as the fire lotus was only about two feet away from Lei Na, a low cry was suddenly transmitted from a distance. As the Dou Qi strength contained in the shout was strong, it resulted in the eardrums of the students in this area being shaken until they felt pain.
Xiao Yan's face changed slightly when he heard that shout. A thought quickly flashed in his heart. Xiao Yan forcefully stopped his ferocious hand in midair. Although this was the case, the high temperature on the fire lotus still burned Lei Na's hair into a pile of ashes in an instant.
’’ Chi! ’’
The moment Xiao Yan's palm stopped, an extremely powerful force suddenly flashed from the air. However, it was not directed at Xiao Yan. Instead, it deeply shot into Lei Na's body. Immediately, under this ferocious power, Lei Na's body was like a kite with its string broken off. He rolled several times in the air before crashing into the wall. Immediately, he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, dying the dark black floor a dark red color.
With Lei Na, who was in front of him, sent flying with a single blow, Xiao Yan had lost his target. He could only slowly straighten his body while his palm dragged a greenish purple lotus as big as a palm. He followed the gazes of everyone present and turned towards the source of the shout.
At the end of the bright hallway, several human figures appeared. The person in front was clearly an old man. Speed fast. Everyone only saw his body make a few leaps and flashes when he appeared in this place where the incident happened.
’’ Elder He! Why is he disturbed? He even came out? ’
Looking at the appearance of this old man whose body was slightly bent, some expressions from the observing students involuntarily changed. They screamed unconsciously. This tower guard elder had a very high position within the Inner Academy. They would usually not show themselves in a situation where a fight occurred between students. It was completely unexpected that/it was the tallest person in charge in the third level would actually make an appearance today. This caused these students to subconsciously feel a shock.
Not long after the old man appeared and appeared, four to five human figures quickly appeared after him. Some of them were instructors inside the tower. They rushed over as they both sensed the frightening energy fluctuations here.
” What are you doing? ” The sharp gaze of the somewhat stooped old man looked around him as he coldly shouted.
The surrounding students all shut their mouths tightly when they heard the old man's question. The prestige that these Elders had within the Inner Academy was something that could not be broken. Someone will suffer if someone offends them.
’’ Elder He, why are we bothering your elderly self? There is just a regular debate going on here. ” Beautiful sweet voice breaks the silence. It was actually Lui Fei who quickly walked forward and spoke with a smile towards Elder He.
’’ Regular fight? If I come a little longer, I'm afraid life might be gone! ’’ Elder He coldly denounced. He shifted his gaze and stopped her in Xiao Yan's body. When his gaze swept towards the purple-green fire lotus in Xiao Yan's hand, his eyes suddenly shrank. He could sense the terrifying energy contained within that fire lotus.
’Little friend, can you finish the fire lotus in your hands? I will uphold justice for the incident here. ” Elder He took one step towards Xiao Yan before he stopped. Within this range, he would be able to instantly come to his rescue in case of an unexpected situation.
’’ I'll do as Elder's command. ’’ Xiao Yan hesitated for a moment after hearing Elder He's words. After that, he nodded. He clearly knew the power that the Elders had within the Inner Academy. Of course, he did not want to offend them so easily.
Xiao Yan's right hand covered the greenish-purple fire lotus hanging on his palm. Spiritual Strength came surging out and overran the flame, breaking the close connection of the fire energy within. With the great increase in his current strength, Xiao Yan's control over this ‘Angry Buddha Lotus Flame’ had also reached a higher level of proficiency. It used to be that he couldn't even grasp the merging part, but he now had the ability to pull and release it as he pleased.
The erosion produced by the Spiritual Strength caused the green-purple flames to form an intense undulation. Upon seeing those flame fluctuations, Elder He's face immediately became much more worried. His wrinkled hands were slightly curved like eagle claws and a sharp Dou Qi was partially visible in his palms, ready to act at any moment.
However, fortunately the worst-case scenario that Elder He had expected did not appear. After the green-purple flames fluctuated slightly, they gradually became illusory. A moment later, they disappeared into thin air in Xiao Yan's palm.
Seeing the terrifying flames finally vanish, Elder He quietly sighed in relief. His tense body also slowly became more relaxed.
” Little boy, you are Xiao Yan, right? ” On top of sighing in relief, Elder He looked up and down and measured Xiao Yan. He recalled the terrifying fire lotus from before and shock flashed in his eyes as he asked Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan was slightly surprised. He did not expect that/it was even this Elder He had heard his name. Immediately, he hurriedly nodded. ’’This little one, Xiao Yan, greets Elder He.’
’’ To To. ’’ Elder He smiled and nodded. The cold and sharp expression of Elder He became much softer when facing Xiao Yan. He asked, ’’ What happened here? ’’
He had trained at the third level for a long period of time, therefore, Liu Fei and Elder He had met several times before. Moreover, due to the beauty of the former, Elder He was extremely warm towards her when they talked to each other once in a while. He naturally had some intention of having Elder He punish Xiao Yan now that/that he had opened his mouth to speak first.
If this happens at ordinary times and involves an ordinary student, Elder He might give the former a redress on account that/that a man should not argue with a woman. However, the culprit today was Xiao Yan. The First Elder had mentioned this person's name and wanted them all to take care of this student. Therefore, Liu Fei's expectations would obviously disappoint her.
Sure enough, after hearing Liu Fei's narrative, Elder He simply rolled his eyelids slightly and ignored her. He simply swept his gaze towards Xiao Yan and smiled as he said, ‘’Xiao Yan, why don't you describe what happened.’
Seeing that/it Elder He completely ignored him, that/it was Liu Fei involuntarily shocked and immediately stepped back bitterly. He clearly knew the strength of these Elders. If it was the elder's cousin here personally, the Elder might still give him a little face. However, with his ability and talent in training.
Xiao Yan glanced indifferently at Liu Fei, the evil person who was the first to swing the charge. A cold smile that he did not hide drew past his face. He cupped his hands towards Elder Liu and explained everything that had happened before in detail from start to finish. Since there were many spectators, Xiao Yan did not exaggerate anything, but merely told the truth of the story.
Elder He's expression unintentionally became a little ugly when Xiao Yan told the story. He turned his head slightly, and coldly looked at Lei Na who was climbing her feet in the corner of the wall. This gaze of his caused Lei Na's originally somewhat anxious expression to become much paler.
Liu Fei at the side also heard Xiao Yan reveal his involvement. Her beautiful face involuntarily became ugly once again.
’’ Lei Na, as a senior, you actually failed to follow the rules of the tower. You will be fined thirty days from ‘Energi Api’ which you must pay within three days. Otherwise, you will be punished by being banned from entering ‘The Shimmering Heaven Qi Refining Tower’ for one month. ’’After Xiao Yan revealed the whole story, Elder He nodded. Under the observation of the many gazes, he turned his gaze towards Lei Na and spoke coldly.
After hearing the punishment coming out from Elder He's mouth, the surrounding students couldn't help but be surprised. Immediately, they turned their pitiful gazes towards the pale-faced Lei Na. Fello iniw will be very bloody this time.
” Liu Fei, even though you are not the main culprit, you have a mistake as the instigator and will be fined ten days ‘Fire’ Energy. You must pay within three days, or you will be punished as mentioned earlier. ” A cold gaze once again turned towards Liu Fei. That shout, however, caused Liu Fei to become a little dull. He did not expect that/that Elder Liu would also punish him.
” Xiao Yan, even though you have a strong reason, your attack is too ferocious. You will be fined five days from ‘Energi Api’ as a warning. ” Elder He finally turned his gaze towards Xiao Yan and gently shouted.
Hearing that/it was the punishment that Elder He Xiao Yan gave was insignificant, the people around were once again shocked. They're facing each other. Soon, they seemed to have understood something and remained silent. According to the rules, using a fatal attack during a sparring will receive a very severe punishment. Some unlucky ones will even be allowed to enter ‘ Sky Refining’ Purification Tower to practice for one to two months. Compared to Xiao Yan who was fine for five days from ‘Energy Fire’, naturally the difference between Heaven and Earth …
No one had expected Xiao Yan to have such support. Liu Fei and Lei Na could be considered kicking the metal plate this time around.
’’ Elder He, isn't your punishment for Xiao Yan a little too light? Someone who uses a fatal move temporarily will not be allowed to enter ‘Tower Refining Sky Blazing Sky!’ ’’ Liu Fei's face is green and her voice becomes much sharper.
” If you are dissatisfied with my judgment, you can go and find the First Elder or Headmaster .. ” Elder Liu glanced at Liu Fei before speaking indifferently.
Liu Fei was furious when she heard this. This First Elder rarely appeared, where would he go and look for him? As for the Headmaster, he had not even seen this mysterious Headmaster since he entered the Inner Academy, not to mention finding him to seek redress for injustice.
” Alright, today's problem will end here. If there is anyone who does not obey the rules of the tower in the future, do not blame me for giving a severe punishment. ’Elder He looked around him. The people who came into contact with his gaze hurriedly lowered their heads.
Elder He glanced at Xiao Yan before turning around and walking back to the street from where he came from.
’Little friend, next time you argue with someone, don't come out like this. It is good that/it You want to show your strength, but someone will not achieve what he wants if anything is excessive.. ” Xiao Yan observes Elder He leaving. He was just about to bow and send the latter away respectfully as a low old voice echoed softly by the side of his ear. Xiao Yan was startled when he heard this voice before he nodded slowly.
As Elder He left, this area once again descended into a shameful silence. There was additional respect and fear present in the gaze that looked at Xiao Yan. They were not formed from Elder He covering up his actions, but were formed due to the terrifying fire lotus that Xiao Yan had displayed. A person with sharp eyes would be able to see that/it if Xiao Yan's attack did not stop and Elder He did not appear, the current Lei Na might have become a corpse by now.
Xiao Yan did not care about the gazes around him. He once again turned around and walked into the high-class training room. When he passed Liu Fei, he stopped his steps and said weakly, ” I didn't hit you just because you're a woman. If you are a man, your ending will not be much better than Lei Na... ‘’
As soon as he said this, Xiao Yan brushed his sleeves and walked into the training room, leaving Liu Fei's green face clenching her silver teeth. If you find any errors (broken links, non-standard content, etc.), please let us know so that we can fix them as soon as possible.
