Li Yunqing was a little puzzled by Yuan Yao's behavior and asked softly: "Yuan Yao, what's wrong with you?"
"I just remembered that the other party was a strong man who had perfected the Nirvana realm, and I was a little scared. We killed a strong man who had perfected the Nirvana realm." Yuan Yao said with a trembling voice.
Although she was scared, Yuan Yao was more excited.
"Don't tell anyone about this matter, including Shi Chen and Qin Chen. Our current strength is too weak and we cannot withstand Jin Lingshan's torment." Li Yuan ordered.
"Not even Shi Chen? I still want to go back and show off to him." Yuan Yao accidentally said what was in her heart.
Li Yuan raised his legs and walked forward, and said at the same time: "I'm not worried about Shi Chen and Qin Chen, but this matter is a bit involved, so take precautions before it happens."
"Where are Miss Mu and the others?" Li Yunqing and Li Yuan walked side by side.
"They don't need to worry. Diao Zhiyuan's status in the sect is not low.
"If word spreads about this today, Jin Lingshan will definitely remember Diao Zhiyuan's death on them." Li Yuan responded.
A cool breeze blew by, ashes danced on the ground, and scattered flames danced.
Li Yuan and the others walked over slowly, looking at everything around them at the same time.
"Xiao Yuan, that person is not dead yet?"
On the ground in front, Diao Zhiyuan's body was intact, but his clothes were slightly damaged and his body was covered in blood scabs. Yuan Yao immediately hid behind Li Yuan.
Li Yuan shook his head and said: "He is already dead, there is no life left in him."
Li Yunqing and Yuan Yao stayed where they were.
Li Yuan slowly stepped forward, holding the hidden blade in his hand, and slashed at Diao Zhiyuan's body on the ground. In an instant, the body and head were separated.
Although he was sure that the opponent had no chance of survival and took precautions before it happened, Li Yuan still chopped off his head.
"This is?"
Seeing a small dark golden shield on the ground, which was intact, his eyes widened a little. He raised his left hand slightly and took the small shield into his hand.
Li Yunqing walked up to Li Yuan, stared at the small shield on the latter's left hand, and speculated softly: "Is this the thing that preserved his body?"
"I think so." Li Yuan nodded in response, "Diao Zhiyuan was seriously injured and his energy was exhausted, so he shouldn't be able to activate much of this thing's power.
"But relying on the defensive capabilities of this object, the impact of the three explosive bombs killed him, but did not destroy him.
"It can be seen that this object should also be a mysterious treasure, but I don't know what grade it is."
"Let me see!" Yuan Yao snatched the small dark golden shield from Li Yuan's hand from behind and touched it with her little hand.
"It's a good thing, but it doesn't quite fit."
After watching for a while, she shook her head and sighed, then threw the small shield to Li Yuan.
Taking the small shield, Li Yuan and Li Yunqing looked at each other and smiled.
Li Yuan put away the hidden blade, then took away the golden Yun ring from Diao Zhiyuan's finger, looked around, took a deep breath, and showed a wry smile on his face.
Diao Zhiyuan had been beaten to death by Zhu Jingxuan and others, but they could not kill him. In the end, they had to use three explosive bombs. After all, the disparity in strength was too great.
This time, there was no danger. Not only did he kill Diao Zhiyuan, but he also got a mysterious weapon, a mysterious treasure, and a golden Yun Ring.
There are many things in the Yun Jie of an elder from Jinlingshan.
With Diao Zhiyuan out of the way, Li Yuan felt much more relaxed and could deal with the next three duels with peace of mind.
He was determined to win all three matches and not delay it until the second round to avoid any mishaps.
After Xia Lin wins the championship, he will probably go to the Qingmu Palace with Mu Yuting, enter the Wood Spirit Valley, and hit Nirvana.
After withdrawing his thoughts, he put the corpse on the ground into the Yun Ring so that no one else could find it, and he would deal with it later.
"Little aunt, little Yaoyao, let's go."
The three of them jumped into the air and flew towards the location of Mu Yuting and others.
………
Zhu Jingxuan, Meng Yi and Hui Xingshou were seriously injured, while Mu Yuting's injury was relatively better, but not serious.
Therefore, Mu Yuting and others did not return to Xiayang City with Li Yuan, but went deeper into the Donglin Mountains to recuperate.
When they parted, Mu Yuting reminded Li Yuan.
Among the eight disciples, the strongest one is not Lao Sisi from Yuzhi Sect, nor Zuo Yuchen from Bihai Pavilion, nor Zhuo Chunjing from Leiyin Valley, but Wo Lancheng from their Aoki Temple.
The information Mu Yuting revealed to Li Yuan shocked him extremely.
He had always thought that Lao Sisi was the strongest, and he regarded this woman as an obstacle on his way to leadership.
Although Wo Lancheng was somewhat famous, he was not outstanding among the eight disciples.
The opponents in the first five games are of average strength, but the next three games are the key.
I originally thought that there was Lao Sisi and Zhuo Chunjing in Mingze Courtyard, which was already great, but I never imagined that there was also Wo Lancheng.
In this way, the strength of this hospital is terrifyingly strong.
There was no duel at Yunjun Academy today, and Li Yuan and others did not rush back to Xia Lin Academy immediately.
After walking and stopping all the way, it was already dusk when we arrived at Yunjun Courtyard.
As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the small courtyard, they saw Du Danlu and Shi Chen standing there, looking slightly anxious.
Li Yuan and others were not there, and they were worried that something would happen to them, so Du Danlu and Shi Chen did not go to Xia Lin Yuandao.
When Yuan Yao saw the big guy, he immediately became more energetic and wanted to show off the battle in the morning.
As soon as the idea appeared, Li Yuan noticed it and stopped it immediately.
Wherever he went that day, Li Yuan casually found an excuse to excuse himself.
Seeing that they were safe and sound, Du Danlu didn't wait long and rushed to Xia Lin Yuandao.
Now I can watch the final showdown in the past.
Shi Chen, on the other hand, chose to stay in the small courtyard and did not go with Du Danlu.
After returning to the room, Yuan Yao fell asleep.
After Li Yuan and Li Yunqing freshened up, they entered a state of cultivation.
………
At the second watch, the small courtyard is bustling.
Qin Chen and others who came back from Xia Lin Yuandao entered the small courtyard and went directly to the main room.
Li Yuan and Li Yunqing immediately exited the cultivation state and went downstairs.
Everyone is gathered here, not for anything else, but for tomorrow's showdown.
Tomorrow they will face Chen Huayuan, their most powerful opponent since participating in Xia Lin's championship.
Fan Hongtao first told Li Yuan about today's duel.
There are three duels today. The first scene is between Shen Court and Chen Hua Court.
Jingshenyuan is vulnerable to the powerful Chenhuayuan.
Before Chen Hua Yuan made much effort, Jing Shen Yuan immediately admitted defeat.
It's not that they don't want to give it a try, but the disparity in strength between the two sides is too great and there is no chance to affect the outcome of the duel.
The members of the Yunjun Courtyard did not have high expectations for exploring the Chenhua Courtyard.
As expected, Chenhuayuan did not field the strongest lineup.
Since losing to Mingze Academy last time, they have won the last three matches in a row, and the call for winning the championship follows Yunjun and Mingze Academy.
The second matchup was between Mingzeyuan and Qiyaoyuan.
Mingze Academy's paper strength is the strongest among the Ninth Academy, and of course its real strength is also the same.
From the beginning, their voices for winning the championship were the highest.
Of course, Yunjun Academy's five consecutive wins really stole the spotlight from Mingze Academy.
Yunjun Academy was originally more popular than Mingze Academy for winning the championship. It did not appear in the duel for two consecutive days, and the popularity dropped.
Mingzeyuan had a duel these two days. Yesterday they defeated Hao Yi, and today they defeated Qiyao.
Changing the previous decline of losing to Haoxi, he kept pace with Yunjun.
The last one is the showdown between Shusei-in and Yui-in.
Although Shuxingyuan had a day off yesterday, they had lost the qualification to compete for the top spot and were at the bottom, so they had no intention of fighting.
Yuiyuan only participated in four duels in the past few days, and his mentality was relatively good.
What's more, Yuyiyuan still has a chance to compete for the top spot, and he can win a match as he wishes in front of Shuxingyuan, a weak opponent.
It has been eight days since Xia Lin won the championship, and the strength of each house has basically been displayed.
Yunjun Academy won five out of five matches, Mingze Academy won five out of six matches, and Chenhua Academy won four out of five matches.
Judging from the current record, there is not much problem for these three houses to enter the next round.
However, Yunjun Academy has not yet lost and still has a chance to win the first round.
Both Mingzeyuan and Chenhuayuan are Li Yuan's opponents in the next three games.
Haoxiyuan has three wins in four games, and it should not be underestimated. Yunjunyuan's opponent is the day after tomorrow.
As for the fifth academy that has already played against Yunjun Academy, the situation is not very good.
Haoyi Court has one win in five games, Xiuxing Court has one win in six games, Jingshen Court has one win in six games, Yuyi Court has two wins in five games, and Qiyao Court has two wins in six games.
Qiyao, Jingshen, Xiuxing and Haoyi Fourth Academy all withdrew from the competition for the leadership.
In the duel between them in the next few days, they just need to ensure that they don't finish last.
As for Yuiyuan, he won the next three duels and has a chance to advance to the next round.
However, in addition to weak depth of field, the other two opponents in these three games are Chen Hua and Mingze, so their prospects are not very good.
Only by winning five matches will you be eligible to advance to the next round.
Once Yuyi loses a match, he will also be disqualified.
Of course, since Yunjunyuan won the next three games, there was no talk of the next round.
After analyzing the current situation, Li Yuan made arrangements for Yuan Zhe who will play tomorrow.
Chenhuayuan will definitely send out its strongest lineup tomorrow and will not retain any strength. There is no doubt about this.
Because they had already fought against Mingze and Haoxi, they had no worries.
Although the opponent at the back, Yuiyuan, was strong, there was obviously a big gap in strength between the two sides.
Tomorrow Li Yuan will play, Shi Chen and Qin Chen will also continue to play, and Li Yunqing will appear in Xia Lin Yuandao Duel Square for the first time.
The opponent in the last game is Mingzeyuan, and he still has to retain some strength.
The remaining position in the next game is assigned to Meng Xingyu.
Yuan Yao looks like a little girl and has not shown any strength outside, so Li Yunqing is the best choice to play.
The five Yuan Dan realms have reached their peak. This is the strongest lineup sent by Yunjun Academy so far.
Li Yuan finally told Fan Hongtao and Du Danlu that there was no need to come here to discuss it tomorrow night.
For the showdown with Hao Xiyuan the day after tomorrow, he will use tomorrow's lineup unless something unexpected happens on the court.
Everyone dispersed, and it was the third watch.
………
The next day in the afternoon.
Yunjun Yuan participated in the duel in the small courtyard where Yuan Zhe lived, and there was no sign of Yuan Zhe going to Xia Lin Yuandao.
Today's first game is the showdown between Jingshen Academy and Yuyi Academy. Both agencies have already fought each other, so there is no need to pay attention.
Although Yuyiyuan still has a chance to advance to the next round, Li Yuan does not think they have this chance.
Mingzeyuan and Chenhuayuan will not give them this opportunity.
What's more, Li Yuan had no intention of delaying it to the next round.
Their duel with Chenhuayuan was the second one today. It started at Youcai, so it was still early.
Li Yuan planned to practice for a while, but was disturbed by the chatter downstairs.
After a while, Li Yunqing went upstairs to inform him that Qin Yongtian, the head of the Qin family, was visiting. He seemed to have something important and needed to communicate with Li Yuan in person.
There were only Shi Chen, Qin Chen and Qin Yongtian downstairs.
"Haha, Master Qin, I don't know why you are here."
Li Yuan followed Li Yunqing downstairs and smiled broadly at Qin Yongtian.
Qin Yongtian stood up and said with a smile: "Haha, Li Yuan, what's the matter? I'm not welcome."
"Where. It's just your sudden visit, there must be something big going on." Li Yuan waved his hand.
"It's no big deal. I'm really happy that you won five games in a row. Today is the sixth game, and I'm here to cheer you on." Qin Yongtian responded.
Li Yuan stood opposite Qin Yongtian and raised his hand to signal everyone to sit down and talk.
After Li Yunqing gave Li Yuan tea, he sat down next to him.
"Master Qin, there are no outsiders here. Let's not say polite words. If you have anything to say, just say it directly." Li Yuan said seriously.
Qin Yongtian picked up the teacup and took a sip, pondered for a moment, frowned and said: "Li Yuan, do you still remember Diao Zhiyuan from Jinlingshan?"
Hearing this, Li Yuan and Li Yunqing looked at each other sideways, but immediately returned to normal.
"Remember, remember." Nodding slightly, Li Yuan continued calmly, "That's Tao Dingyang's grandfather, the elder of Jinling Mountain. What? Do you have news about him?"
Qin Yongtian nodded, deliberately lowered his voice, and said: "Diao Zhiyuan arrived in Xia Yang City the evening before yesterday. This is the news from the palace.
"He stayed in the palace for more than an hour before leaving. No one knows where he went after that.
"At noon today, I received news from Lingfeng in the east of Jinling Mountain that Diao Zhiyuan has died."
Hearing this, Li Yuan and Li Yunqing were deliberately surprised at the same time.
Of course, Shi Chen and Qin Chen were really shocked.
Silence fell in the room.
After a while, Qin Chen asked: "Grandpa, is the news true.
"I remember you mentioned to me a few days ago that Diao Zhiyuan is a strong man who has achieved Nirvana and is ready to reach the peak of perfection. Everyone in Jinling Mountain knows about this."
"It should be true. The soul jade tablet placed in Jinling Mountain has been broken. I heard that it happened early yesterday morning, but it was not reported until today.
"This incident shocked the top management of Jinling Mountain. Diao Zhiyuan was vaguely heading towards the peak of perfection. He was originally going to return to the mountain to improve his cultivation, but he came to Xiayang City because of Tao Dingyang's death."
At this point, Qin Yongtian looked at Li Yuan, paused briefly, and then continued: "In the final analysis, Tao Dingyang's matter still originated from my Qin family."
Qin Chen defended Li Yuan and said: "Grandpa, Tao Dingyang's matter has nothing to do with Li Yuan, and Diao Zhiyuan's death has nothing to do with Li Yuan.
"Didn't you say that he defeated many powerful men who reached the peak of Nirvana in Jinling Mountain? From this point of view, it seems that it is difficult for a Yuan person under the Yuanshen realm to kill him.
"With such strength, if we look at the entire Qinggu Continent, there are probably no more than five hundred Yuan beings capable of killing him."
Qin Yongtian did not respond directly to Qin Chen, but thought for a moment and said: "Li Yuan, you should leave Xia Yang City first, it is best to find a way to leave Jin Lingshan's control.
"After all, this matter has alarmed the top management of Jinling Mountain and damaged an elder who has achieved nirvana. We will definitely investigate to the end."
Li Yuan touched his chin, feeling a little annoyed. Trouble came one after another.
He is just a small Yuan Dan state, how can he withstand the harassment of these Nirvana strong men in turn.
The tea cup he picked up in his hand was put to his mouth and then put back on the table. Li Yuan tapped his fingers on the table and asked: "Master Qin, have the strong men from Jinling Mountain arrived in Xia Yang City? "
"No." Qin Yongtian immediately shook his head, "This time not only Diao Zhiyuan died, but also two other Nirvana practitioners died in Jin Lingshan.
"It is said that he is the deacon of Dongling Peak, but I heard from Elder Feng Lin of Dongling Peak that he is actually the person Diao Zhiyuan placed in Dongling Peak. Involving these two people makes this matter a little more complicated."
When Li Yuan heard this, his eyes lit up and he immediately asked: "Why is it so complicated?"
