Chereads / Single Punch Man in a Cultivation World / Chapter 26 - The Two Successors

Chapter 26 - The Two Successors

The wind and clouds changed in an instant under Lan Yun'er's shout.

The cloudless sunny day was suddenly covered with dark clouds.

There was a faint surge of lightning, making the people at the scene scared.

That was only the strength of an unrecognized registered disciple?

Even the few elders of the main seat couldn't sit still when they saw that.

Hong Lie would die without a doubt once that technique struck on him!

Although they knew that there were a few disciples with good aptitude among the unrecognized registered disciples and one of them was Lan Yun'er.

But Lan Yun'er was just a disciple who had just learned the Qi-Refining Technique a year ago.

Not a single elder knew that she had such a tremendous change in just a year.

Such talent, such perseverance, and such hard work were utterly amazing.

However.

It was not the time to pay attention to this matter.

Lan Yun'er was a disciple, and Hong Lie was also a disciple.

Both of them were important.

Hong Lie's temperament had already been affected by the Blood Asura Technique, and he did not know how to retreat at all.

Unexpectedly, he leaped when the elders' attention was attracted by Lan Yun'er.

Hong Lie could not fly on his sword at this time, let alone control his Qi.

That move of his was by using the force of the physical strength of the Blood Asura!

The dark clouds in the sky churned and were ready to move in the next moment.

Boom!

Boom!

Two explosions of thunder sounded.

A bolt of lightning accurately descended from the sky and struck Lan Yun'er's thin sword.

The thin sword absorbed this bolt of lightning and wrapped the power of the lightning around the sword.

This thin sword emitted a blinding light that made it impossible for the naked eye to look straight at it in a second!

The arena that was covered by dark clouds appeared slightly dark.

But it was as bright as day!

It was all because of that bolt of lightning!

It was all because of that sword!

It was all because of that disciple!

Hong Lie was about to arrive in front of Lan Yun'er in just a while.

And although Lan Yun'er's face had turned pale, the killing intent in her eyes had already appeared.

One of them would lose their life if the match continued.

And that person would most likely be Hong Lie!

"Save him!"

Chen Xuanfeng did not hesitate at all and immediately roared in a low voice.

The few elders instantly disappeared from the main seat's viewing platform.

The next moment.

The two people who were about to collide in the air had disappeared at the same time!

The disciples below looked around, looking for traces of the two people.

Some of the timid female disciples had already covered their eyes and could not bear to look anymore. But they were also curious at that moment.

Where did these two people go?

Countless disciples looked around, but one of them slightly turned his gaze and looked at the distance.

...

There were two figures, one young and one old, floating in the distant sky. They were as tiny as mosquitoes.

One would not be able to notice them if they didn't look carefully.

The two people there were Lan Yun'er and Chen Xuanfeng.

The reason Chen Xuanfeng brought Lan Yun'er out of the arena was that he was worried that Lan Yun'er would not be able to control her power of summoning from heaven.

It was likely that the strength of lightning would pour onto the arena below if her target suddenly disappeared.

Not to mention that the buildings of the Heavenly Sword Sect would suffer. Countless people in the crowd of disciples would suffer from injury or die!

As for Hong Lie, he was pushed to the ground by several elders in the same direction. He was unable to move at that moment.

It was not that the few elders were biased towards Lan Yun'er.

The main reason was that Hong Lie's mind had been affected by the Blood Asura. Simply pulling him away would not be able to stop him.

He would only attack Lan Yun'er recklessly like a wild beast.

An elder extended his palm and struck the back of Hong Lie's neck.

Hong Lie fainted. The skin on his body was no longer red. However, the blood that had seeped out earlier still stained his body. It looked somewhat terrifying.

Lan Yun'er, who was in the sky, had her thin sword snatched away by Chen Xuanfeng.

Lan Yun'er took a light breath and looked at Chen Xuanfeng with a pale face. She did not say anything.

Although Chen Xuanfeng felt happy to see Lan Yun'er had such an aptitude, he still scolded her a little.

"How can disciples under the same sect use such a powerful technique when battling against each other? What if you hurt the lives of your fellow seniors and juniors?"

Lan Yun'er pursed her lips slightly and forced herself to remain silent.

Chen Xuanfeng sighed, and his tone became slightly gentle as he said, "However, I didn't expect that you would be able to improve so much within a year. I am happy to see that."

"I will reward you today regardless of the outcome. You must continue to work hard in the future and set a good example for your fellow juniors."

Chen Xuanfeng condemned before he praised.

Although Lan Yun'er's talent was extremely high, she had only been cultivating. How could she understand his intention?

A trace of unnoticeable joy appeared between her brows upon hearing Chen Xuanfeng's words.

She cupped her hands and said in a low voice, "Disciple Lan Yun'er, thank you, sect leader."

Chen Xuanfeng nodded his head in satisfaction.

Lan Yun'er's aptitude was excellent. Perhaps she could be taken in as the personal disciple and be groomed into the next sect leader.

Speaking of aptitude...

Chen Xuanfeng's expression suddenly changed. He subconsciously thought of a certain bald head.

"That brat." Chen Xuanfeng thought of Huangfu Longdou extorting his Dragon-Seeking Ruler and couldn't help but scolded him in a low voice.

Although Lan Yun'er was more suitable to be brought up as the successor, Chen Xuanfeng was inexplicably interested in Huangfu Longdou.

He thought of the past and was a little absent-minded.

"Sect Master, what did you just say?" Lan Yun 'er did not hear Chen Xuanfeng scolding and asked in puzzlement.

"Ah... nothing, I said we should go back."

Chen Xuanfeng extended his right hand to block his nose and mouth. He cleared his throat and changed the topic.

...

The elders announced the winner of this competition after they brought Lan Yun'er and Hong Lie.

Although Hong Lie and Lan Yun'er did not directly determine the winner, the elders unanimously believed that Lan Yun'er won this round.

The disciples did not have any objections.

Although the elders might be biased in judging who won and who lost, it wouldn't be a problem if everyone had the same opinion.

After all, Hong Lie would probably have died on the spot if it hadn't been for the elders' interference.

It was likely that Hong Lie wouldn't have any complaints after he woke up.

The second match was about to begin after the Heavenly Sword Sect's doctors to was arranged to treat Hong Lie.

"The second match will be between Su Chen and Zhang Fan."

Everyone's attention was drawn to the next match instantly.

No one discussed the results of the previous match.

Huangfu Longdou was also preparing to continue watching the match.

But a beautiful figure dressed in white suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking his view right at that moment.

Huangfu Longdou raised his head slightly and met Lan Yun'er's gaze.

The two young elites in the arena bowed to each other and prepared to fight.

The disciples around the arena cheered for the two of them.

And in that corner.

A man and a woman, one sitting and one standing, as they looked at each other.
