to get a glimpse of it. Perhaps there is a chance to reach the Upper Realm, and perhaps it will create another opportunity at that time. 。"Some groundless rumors, you bring them up to tell Lu Dao-you...What bothered Luo Ze even more was the slight disdain in Su Qing's tone.

Lu XiaTian was even more furious. Besides Luo Ze's hysteria, there was also his ignorance towards Su Qing, this young girl, or perhaps a deliberate provocation. Although this woman's beauty was unparalleled in his life, he couldn't feel the slightest bit of fondness for her.

"I want you dead!"

Lu Qian wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes bloodshot. He reached out and patted his storage bag. A purple spear that flashed with lightning bolts flew out again, hovering above his head. Lu Xia Tian was all too familiar with the terrifying aura emanating from the spear—it was a thunder-attribute magic weapon!

This kid's gone mad, hasn't he Lu Xiaotian couldn't help but feel quite troubled at this moment. Once Luo Qian used his weapon, even though Luo Qian was already severely injured, he would have to use the Binding Demon Rope or else his life would be in danger. With his strength, he couldn't withstand the full force of a lightning-type weapon attack. But once the Binding Demon Rope came out, his true identity would soon be exposed.

Su Qing looked at Lu Xia Tian with curious eyes, wanting to see what kind of moves he would use to deal with Luo Ze's weapon, the thunder spear. As soon as the spear appeared, Zhang Tao and his group retreated in fear, for fear that Luo Qian, after losing his composure, might unleash his anger on them. But although Lu Xia Tian's face was not good-looking, he was far from as afraid as Zhang Tao and the others. Her curiosity about Lu Xia Tian grew stronger and stronger. She had no idea that at this moment, Lu Xia Tian already hated her to death in his heart.

“Stop!” Just as Lu XiaTian was hesitating, a stern voice rang out.

A giant black hand, spanning several feet, shot down from the sky. It directly captured Luo Qian's weapon, the Lei Spear, in its grasp.

Lu Xiaoteng looked up and was slightly surprised. The two leaped down from the air. A thin old man jumped down from the air. His face was chiseled, and there was a sense of rigidity and severity through him. It was Zhao Zhong whom he had met in望月城. This was the first time he saw a Foundation Establishment cultivator make a move. With a casual wave, he could capture the magic weapon of a Qi Refining cultivator into his hand. The difference between Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining cultivators, just two words apart, was like a chasm. The other person was a black-bearded old man about Zhao Zhong's age.

“Master Zhao, Master Zhao, Uncle Qi,” Zhang Tao and the others’ faces turned pale. They inwardly cried out in despair, their luck was so terrible that they ran into Master Zhao, who was known for his strictness.

"You have such audacity! Not only did you fight privately within the palace gates, but you even dared to use magic artifacts. Do you intend to kill someone" Zhao Zhong rebuked, his hair standing on end, his anger immeasurable.

“Zhao, Master Zhao, it was Lu Xia Tian from Qinglian Peak who provoked first, then injured Senior Brother Luo. Several of us couldn't stand by and watched, so we stopped him.” Zhang Tao hurriedly shifted the blame, turning around to falsely accuse Lu Xia Tian.

"Could this be true" Zhao Zhong stared at Lu Xiaotian again, feeling that Lu Xiaotian looked familiar, but he couldn't remember who he was for a moment. After all, there were tens of thousands of disciples in Lingxiao Palace, and some had the same names, which was normal. Besides, he saw Lu Xiaotian still in Wangyue City, with nearly seven years between them. Lu Xiaotian's height and appearance had changed a lot, and he was no longer the naive boy from before.

“Lord Lin Zhao, Uncle Qi, this junior passed by Ling Tian Peak. Is it true that a lone individual would provoke several of Brother Luo's men Lord Lin Zhao, if you don’t believe me, separate Brother Luo and his men and ask each one individually how I provoked him. See if their stories match up to determine if they are lying.”

Lu Xia Tian politely bowed to Zhao Zhong. Facing Zhang Tao's mindless accusation, he almost laughed out loud. If he were to be held back by such trivial matters, he wouldn't have survived to this day

"Is that so You started the trouble and then slandered me afterwards. When did Lingtian Peak Domain produce such a vile disciple If this is true, Palace rules must be enforced!" Zhao Zhong narrowed his eyes and looked again at Zhang Tao, whose face was as pale as earth. He didn't need to ask any further. Just from the expressions of these people, he could tell that what Zhang Tao had just said was not entirely true.

“Zhao, Master Zhao, we, we didn't say anything. It was just Zhang Tao talking nonsense.” The others trembled in fear and quickly denied everything, immediately distancing themselves from Zhang Tao.

“Very well, you truly treat the palace rules as mere decorations. This old man will personally lead you to the Hall of Punishment!” Zhao Zhong roared.

Zhang Tao let out a cry and immediately knelt on the ground in fright.

“Alright, Zhao senior brother, don't scare the children. Although Zhang Tao has a bad character, it's understandable that a young man might make some small mistakes. Besides, Luo family's boy is still injured, why don't you let him treat his wounds first And with Su Shibo's granddaughter here, considering Su Shibo's upbringing, this fight should just be normal sparring. No need to investigate further.” The black-bearded elder who had remained silent until now chimed in with a conciliatory tone.

"Su Qing greeted Zhao Shishu and Qi Shishu." Su Qing politely bowed to the two of them.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Well, well, it's been a few months, hasn't it Su girl is becoming more and more obedient and sensible." The elderly man surnamed Qi nodded repeatedly. Zhao Zhong wasn't as good at saving face as the elderly man surnamed Qi; he grunted once and said nothing more.

"The young man is quite good. He can focus on cultivation and even defeated Luo Qian, that's not ordinary. No matter who makes the first move, private fights are ultimately wrong. You have suffered losses, so let Luo Qian be responsible for compensation. You are all from the same sect, this matter should just end here. What do you think"

The elderly man surnamed Qi looked at Lu Xiaodao again. He had a good relationship with Luo Qian's father, and this incident was clearly instigated by Luo Qian, who even used magic weapons. If it were just him, he could have forcefully suppressed the matter. However, it was unfortunately that Zhao Zhong, that stubborn and rigid fellow, happened to be traveling the same path. To quell the situation, he had to make a breakthrough from Lu Xiaodao.

“Come now, brother, if we always just smooth things over, what will happen Won't everyone be able to treat the palace rules as a joke in the future” Zhao Zhong frowned and said.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Lu Xia Tian heard the elder surnamed Qi explain Luo Qian's wrongdoing in a few words, and then asked him, seemingly asking, but as a cultivator of qi refinement, he had no bottom line to refuse. An honest old man like Zhao Zhong was okay, he wouldn't have any bad intentions, an elder surnamed Qi with such a kind face, if he really wanted to trouble him, it would be troublesome. Moreover, if he really wanted to use Zhao Zhong's strictness to discipline Luo Qian and others, it would definitely delay time, and this time the auction in Chifeng Town would not be made in time. So he nodded and said, "What Senior Qi said is right. Brother Luo and I originally had just a little friction, and I didn't suffer any losses, so there is no need for compensation. Now that Brother Luo is injured, it is better to treat him as soon as possible."

“Haha, the young man has a good sense of propriety. Not bad.” Uncle Qi smiled heartily, very satisfied with Lu Xiaitian’s understanding. Such a young man who knew how to advance and retreat would not be a real troublemaker. He just needed to consider Zhao Zhong’s face, so Uncle Qi turned to Zhao Zhong and said, “Brother Zhao, it’s just children playing around and sparring with each other. There’s no need to involve the palace rules. However, that Zhang Tao kid, he dared to deceive his seniors in his words, and deserves severe punishment. What do you think, brother”

Zhao Zhong glared at Lu Xia Tian, displeasure evident in his voice. "Since that's the case, then do as you say." With that, he swept his sleeve and left.

Zhang Tao was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, stammering. He had become the scapegoat for this incident, and Lu Xia Tian gave him a cold smile. "Serves you right," he said with a curt bow before leaving.ssed before, if you bring enough Lingjing and treasures, we can exchange them now.” 。"Refreshing, although I still want to have a great battle with Daoist Lu, regarding Daoist Lu's character, this poo...
