Bai He watched Hong Ling walk into the Century-round Meridian he was in just now with a dark expression. A trace of anger flashed past his eyes. Up till now, this Hong Ling had never even looked at him seriously. She simply did not put him, a heaven's pride level expert of the Bai Family, in her eyes.

"Humph, since you are so arrogant, I want to see exactly how strong you are!" He aimed his gaze at the Century-round Meridian where Hong Ling's mirror image was located and stepped into it. However, just as he entered the Century-round Meridian s, a sword light flashed past, and directly knocked him flying before he could even react. Peng! He landed heavily on the ground, blood coming out from the corner of his mouth. Bai He's face was filled with terror, he had never imagined that someone of the same level would possess such a powerful attack. He did not even have time to clearly see the trajectory of the sword qi before it was sent flying by Hong Ling's Mirror Image.

Hong Ling faced the mirror image of the White River with a calm expression, neither happy nor sad. From what he could sense, the image of Bai He was pitifully weak, weaker than the image of Zhou Kuang and Zhang Huang. Hong Ling really couldn't think of what kind of mentality he had to make Bai He be so arrogant until now. The mirror image didn't say a word. A raging flame burned on the spear in its hand. As if sensing the extremely tyrannical Qi on Hong Ling's body, he immediately ran, his spear dragging out a long tail of flames. Hong Ling casually summoned out the Sorrow Spirit s, his longsword was covered by a layer of faint dark golden flames, the Heavenly Desolate Sacred Flame. Seeing that Hong Ling was not moving, the White River Mirror leaped up high and then fell down. It merged with the spear as one and like a shooting star, it fiercely smashed down towards Hong Ling.

Hong Ling looked at this extremely beautiful move, and a cold smile flashed past his eyes. Almost all of these mirror-like battle techniques were based on the original body of the mirror. This indirectly showed that this Bai He had the strength of his body, but his moves were always extremely gaudy. He didn't dodge. Instead, he stepped on the ground and soared into the sky. Man and sword as one, crashed into that falling star. Boom! * The sound of impact resounded within the Century-round Meridian like the clap of thunder. The Sacred Flame of Eternity and the flames created by the mirror image of the white river clashed with each other, instantly devouring the mirror image of the white river and burning it into nothingness. Hong Ling landed gracefully, casually took the purple gold holy order and walked out of the Century-round Meridian.

Bai He stared fixedly at the Century-round Meridian that was his mirror image and watched as the meridian wheel slowly disappeared. His eyes were filled with disbelief.

"How is this possible? How could he defeat my Mirror in such a short amount of time? He must have cheated!" However, Hong Ling did not even give him a glance. Instead, he found a random Century-round Meridian and entered once more.

"How dare he ignore me! How dare he ignore me! "

Bai He tightly clenched his fists, his nails digging into his flesh without even realizing it. After a long while, he bitterly snorted, took the God Transforming Pellet and the Yellow Ranked Spirit Weapon from Fang Qian, and walked out of the City Lord's Mansion without even looking back. At this point, staying here was completely meaningless. The journey of his Heaven Assembly had already come to an end.

Fang Qian stared at Hong Ling's figure, nodding his head in satisfaction. Among all the young cultivators, this youth was the fastest to obtain the Purple Gold Divine Token. Even when he was young, he couldn't be as casual as Hong Ling. Hong Ling had once said that he and Jixia Academy were fated, and he didn't know if it was true or not. If he could stay in Jixia Academy, how good would it be! Fang Qian thought, but very quickly he felt that the possibility of that happening was close to zero. Heaven Assembly was a gathering with the highest quality Great Chu Empire. At that time, all the underworld clans and the super powers of the Great Chu would appear to snatch these heaven's pride level experts. He, Jixia Academy, truly did not have much resources to invest.

Fang Qian was in a trance when he saw Hong Ling walking out from within the Century-round Meridian. Behind the youth's back, the Century-round Meridian slowly dispersed, disappearing without a trace. Fang Qian's eyes almost popped out. This brat, how did he do it, he's such a monster.

"Phew, there are still four pieces left!" Hong Ling looked at the purple gold holy order on his waist and spat out a white Turbid Air, "Hehe, looks like it's not that difficult to gather the purple gold holy order!"

Fang Qian heard him mumbling to himself and was immediately stunned. This guy, could it be that he didn't know that when he said those words, many people wanted to beat him up? He wondered what would happen to this white-clothed youth after he entered Jixia Academy and fought those evildoers who had learned their way to the palace. One had to know that the monsters in the academy were also no pushovers. Furthermore, his talent seemed to be in no way inferior to this young man's. As Fang Qian thought about this, he stared at Hong Ling with shining eyes, causing goosebumps to instantly rise all over his body. When he saw Fang Qian looking at him with a beaming smile, he immediately shuddered and quickly fled into the midst of a Century-round Meridian.

This action of his caused Fang Qian to instantly be at a loss of what to do. Even the master of the Tianhuang City, even Cheng Lie, was stunned. The two of them looked at each other and bitterly smiled.

"Junior brother Lian Cheng, I never thought that your Tianhuang City would actually hide such a Unique Aristocrat, it's truly a cause for celebration!" Fang Qian joked to Lian Cheng Lie.

Even Cheng Lie himself felt that it was inconceivable. To be fair, his own control over Tianhuang City was unspeakable. However, there was actually such a heaven's pride level expert hidden right under his nose. This was something he had never expected. However, he did not remember that the Tianhuang City really did have the Hong family surname. Great Chu Empire, the Hong family were all imperial families. Even if it were some stray royal family members, the family established by them was an illustrious existence. His Tianhuang City, definitely did not possess such a power. Moreover, the Tianhuang City was located at the edge of the Shiwan Mountain, so in the eyes of those large clans, the environment was extremely vile, and wasn't even suitable for cultivation.

"Senior Brother Fang Qian, in fact, I did not expect Hong Ling to appear. Not only him, even that servant of his did not receive any useful information! " Fang Qian said as he gave a bitter laugh, "Even to the point of saying, I don't even know when this brat appeared at my Tianhuang City. All I know is that he suddenly appeared before this Heavenly Desolate Martial Meet. It was also said that Yu'er had invited him into the palace because he had used the Sword Manipulation to scare the Zhou family's second young master, Zhou Ao. Moreover, at that time, he was only at the early stage of Essence Refinement into Qi. "

"Early stage of the Essence Refinement into Qi? You mean to tell me that in just a year or so, this kid went from the early stage of Essence Refinement into Qi to the early stage of Qi Cultivating Stage? " Fang Qian's eyes almost popped out as he stared straight at Lian Cheng Lie. "This is really weird, where did this brat come from?"

"Senior Brother, how would I know!" Lian Chenglie had an innocent look on his face as he replied, "You know that I was drinking wine with you in the imperial capital when the Empyrean Terminus Martial Arts Conference was held!"

"Hush, hush, what do you mean drink flower wine? Is that drinking flower wine? That's making friends with old friends, making friends with old friends!" Fang Qian glared at him, seemingly having the urge to beat him up while he was drinking.

Lian Chenglie was instantly speechless. So what if he drank flower wine? His own wife died too early, so he didn't continue the song. And this Senior Brother Fang in front of him was more or less the same. Jixia Academy almost didn't have anyone that needed his guidance, so he naturally had the time to drink flower wine. Everyone in the imperial capital knew about this. How could he know that Fang Qian was afraid of this? If it scared Hong Ling so much that he would run away, he would really lose everything.

Two powerful cultivators like him were currently shamelessly conversing with each other. During this period of time, he had still let out one or two lowly laughter, causing everyone to feel a chill down their spines. Everyone didn't know that these two seniors, who could sweep the world, were currently discussing some interesting matters that weren't suitable for children. Lian Chengyu had just walked out of a Century-round Meridian and successfully obtained a purple gold holy order badge, and seeing that they were happily chatting away, he eagerly walked over, wanting to join in on the conversation, obviously this was not the first time. He did not expect that his father, Lian Chenglie, would directly kick a Century-round Meridian. On the other hand, when Zhihuo saw that the two old fellows actually dared to kick Lian Chengyu, he scoffed, scaring the two old seniors quite a bit.

When Zhihuo finally entered the group of Century-round Meridian, Lian Chenglie and Fang Qian, the two wretched senior brothers, wiped the cold sweat off their foreheads. In the entire City Lord's Mansion, the person they were most afraid of, was definitely Zhihuo. Although Zhihuo was Lian Chengyu's maid, the two of them did not dare to think like that. Furthermore, when the news of Lian Cheng taking Zhihuo as his goddaughter spread, Fang Qian almost made a move to kill him.

Hong Ling quickly obtained three of the four purple gold holy orders. Adding the one he had, there was only one more remaining. However, Hong Ling was not in a hurry now. It was good enough as long as he could get his hands on the nine purple gold holy order anyways. He saw Fang Qian and Lian Cheng chatting about something and was curious, so he wanted to go over. Fang Qian's expression instantly changed, and he stopped Lian Chenglie who wanted to say something. The originally wretched appearance of the two instantly turned incomparably solemn, this huge difference made Hong Ling unable to regain his senses.

"Hong Ling, why are you here?" In fact, he had a good impression of Hong Ling. After all, his niece, Lian Chengyue, had taken a fancy to this youth, and she could not be wrong. Furthermore, after Lian Chengyue had returned from the Shiwan Mountain, his entire demeanor and cultivation had undergone a tremendous change. In private, Lian Chengyue had once directly shattered a crystal used to test talent in front of him.

Maybe he still hadn't grown up yet. However, once his strength reached the level of Spirit Refinement or even higher, the old fellows would only be able to look up to him.

"I wonder what the two seniors are talking about that they are so happy? I am very curious and would like to join you two, is that alright?" Hong Ling said with a face full of smiles.

Fang Qian and Lian Cheng Lie looked at each other with weird expressions on their faces. But he quickly laughed and sent Hong Ling away. What a joke! Such a vulgar topic that was unsuitable for children, how could he poison such a promising young man at this time? Even if he wanted to poison, he would have to wait until he reached the imperial capital and entered Jixia Academy's residence to do so, thought Fang Qian.

Do you want to, Fang Qian? "Fang Qian asked with a grin," Hong Ling, you should go ahead and take the examination first, as long as you pass the trial, at that time, I will tell you what we can discuss! "

Fang Qian smiled benevolently at the youth, and with a casual wave of his hand, Hong Ling's body was swept into a Century-round Meridian by the gale he created. When Fang Qian came back to his senses, he realized that he had thrown Hong Ling into Huang Tao's Century-round Meridian. It was only then that he remembered that Huang Tao seemed to be the only one other than Lian Chengyu and Zhihuo who possessed the talent of the seventh stage.

"This is good, this kid won't lose, right?" Fang Qian rubbed his nose, glared at Lian Cheng Lie, and anger rose from his heart. Lian Chenglie, what are you laughing at? Do you want to get beaten up? "
