104: Master of both literature and swordsmanship! Liu Ran, a powerful figure from the Northern Territory

If possible, Wang Chongming, as a member of the Sect, would never want to do such a thing.

But, precisely because he stood in the camp of another Prodigy of Fengyun Sect, Zhao Qingrou!

In the past, it would have been fine.

But now that there was an opportunity to kill Yang Yucheng outside the Sect, how could he, an Elder in Zhao Qingrou's camp, let it slip?

Yang Yucheng ascending to a high position would not bring him much benefit.

Yang Yucheng belonged to the Sect Head's lineage. Besides that, he had good relations with Grand Elder, Fourth Elder, and Sixth Elder Xu Cheng, but his relationship with Third Master was not very close.

Therefore, Yang Yucheng's ascent did not bring him any great benefits.

Even if the other party obtained the Heavenly Phoenix Legacy, what did it have to do with him?

Instead, if the Prodigy he supported, Zhao Qingrou, took the position of Sect Head, relying on her Heavenly Secret Technique and with Second Elder as her backing, then even he, Third Master, would still be below Second Elder.

However, Second Elder already had a powerful background and had always taken a detached attitude towards Sect resources, not valuing them much. So,

when Zhao Qingrou took that position, most of Fengyun Sect's resources would undoubtedly be concentrated on him, Wang Chongming.

And at that moment, he, a Spirit Emperor Realm powerhouse, would have a chance to Breakthrough to the Spirit Venerable Realm, instead of being trapped in the Spirit Emperor Realm for life.

With such immense benefits before him,

any crazy thing could be done!

Inside the main hall, King of Zhenbei Ye Kaishan, at the head of the left side, had an expression of disbelief.

Even with his bold and uninhibited nature, his pupils now showed a hint of shock!

"Someone from Fengyun Sect wants to kill your Sect's peerless prodigy, who is also the acting Sect Head now?"

"If the current Grand Princess had not personally informed me by letter, I, this King, would never have believed it, nor would I have specifically come here!"

King of Zhenbei Ye Kaishan looked at Wang Chongming with disdain. How could he not know what the other party was planning?

Within a Sect, the struggle between Prodigies was largely similar to the struggle for the Emperor's throne within a Dynasty.

Although he could understand it, to disregard the Sect's future for such benefits, this kind of action had a hint of betrayal.

It was normal to be looked down upon!

Since Third Master Wang Chongming dared to take charge of this matter, and even actively stepped forward at this time without choosing a proxy, it meant that he had already prepared for such ridicule and contempt.

He deserved it!

"Third Master, your plan seems to have failed!"

Divine Monk Miaokong said.

He wore a yellow kasaya robe, and his voice was upright and gentle, calm and powerful, like an old tree with deep roots. His words unconsciously made people believe him more.

"No!"

Wang Chongming denied it immediately.

A mysterious smile suddenly appeared on his face.

Facing everyone's gaze, there was no trace of fear on his face.

Wang Chongming turned around and looked at the person from Xuantian Sword Sect beside King of Zhenbei, and spoke again.

"The next matter should be for Third Master Jian, Liu Ran, the dual supremacy of book and sword, to take action!"

"dual supremacy of book and sword, Liu Ran!!!"

King of Zhenbei Ye Kaishan was the closest.

His pupils widened in surprise, finding it truly hard to believe, "This time, Xuantian Sword Sect actually sent this person? An old powerhouse who has been deeply experienced in the Spirit Emperor Realm for many years!"

Liu Ran!

He was an anomaly in Xuantian Sword Sect.

Originally, he was a pure scholar.

However, due to repeatedly failing the imperial examinations, he could only hover before the Jinshi degree, having only obtained a Juren.

And as everyone knows, a Juren cannot become an official.

Although he had the qualification to be an official, if he didn't understand human relations and accidentally offended his superior, his official career would likely be hopeless.

And Liu Ran was such an unlucky person.

Finally, in a fit of pique, he joined Xuantian Sword Sect. Coupled with the fact that he already had some cultivation, he stumbled upon a Sword Cultivator path unique to himself.

Spanning decades, he reached his current level, a position where he could sit as equals with powerhouses from various forces.

"Understood!"

Liu Ran agreed.

Wang Chongming revealed a satisfied smile.

He spoke softly, his gaze deep as he looked into the distance, at the spirit boat where Yang Yucheng currently was, and said again.

"Then let us all wait and see, and congratulate Third Master Jian on his victorious return!"

"My Sect Master Martial Nephew, the Spirit King Realm couldn't kill him. The Spirit Emperor Realm is also a bit uncertain, but Third Master Jian can definitely do it."

Wang Chongming continued with inexplicable confidence.

Behind him.

King of Zhenbei Ye Kaishan, Liu Ran of Xuantian Sword Sect, and Divine Monk Miaokong of Fanyin Temple, all had somewhat obscure expressions.

Driven by self-interest.

All sense of stance and justice had completely vanished.

Even for them,

who were renowned powerhouses considered to be in the Righteous Path camp by the world, it was still like this... On the spirit boat!

Since the last time he killed all those in the Spirit King Realm, Yang Yucheng had been cultivating.

Inside the room, a small mountain of mid-grade spirit crystals and a few High Grade spirit crystals were placed.

With the assistance of the spirit gathering Formation originally built within the room,

dense Spiritual Qi surged forth!

Yang Yucheng circulated the Nirvana True Scripture within his body, continuously repairing his internal injuries.

It was also because the Upper Three Sects had regulations.

Top-grade spirit crystals were not allowed to appear in the Northern Region. Once traces of top-grade spirit crystals were found, especially top-grade spirit crystal veins, they would be taken into the Sect as its foundation and accumulation.

"It's a bit of a pity!"

Yang Yucheng opened his eyes, his deep gaze falling on the damaged injuries within his body. He couldn't help but shake his head, "If I had these top-grade spirit crystals, I imagine my current repair speed could be significantly faster."

"Sect Master Martial Nephew, someone requests an audience!"

"It's the Disciple Zhang Qianchou, who came to provide aid!"

Sixth Elder Xu Cheng's voice came from outside the room.

"Zhang Qianchou?"

Yang Yucheng pondered for a moment.

There were indeed some young Geniuses in the Ninth Hall. Although not a peerless prodigy like Yang Yucheng, they were well-known in Fengyun Sect, or rather, in the vast Northern Region.

And regarding this Zhang Qianchou!

Yang Yucheng did have some impression.

He was considered the most likely Prodigy to Breakthrough to the Spirit Emperor Realm in the Ninth Hall. Although he did not cultivate the Divine Fire Technique of Fengyun Sect, he found another path.

He used divine fire to temper his body, following the Body Refining path. By now, he had already Breakthrough to the Late Stage of the Spirit King Realm. Previously, he was once comparable to Yang Yucheng in the Ninth Hall.

Many people in the Ninth Hall even privately equated the two of them.

If it weren't for the original body's strong power and the fact that he cultivated the Sect Head's Cultivation Technique, Zhang Qianchou would likely have challenged his position.
