Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 1709: Chapter 1709: Call Yi Xiao Over

If it were any other Heavenly Talent, Xiao Yi would not dare to make such a bold statement.

But he was incredibly familiar with each and every figure here.

They had fought together and grown together. Naturally, Xiao Yi believed in his own judgment and was full of expectations.

”Hmm?”

At this moment, Xiao Yi suddenly furrowed his brow slightly.

His scanning gaze finally fixed on Ye Ming.

Because, among the surrounding Heavenly Talents, Ye Ming was actually the weakest, with his cultivation only at the Third Layer of Saint King Realm.

Ye Ming, obviously, also noticed Xiao Yi’s gaze and his frown.

Ye Ming couldn’t help but give a wry smile and said, ”Junior Brother Xiao Yi, why are you looking at me like that?”

”Uh.” Xiao Yi hesitated for a moment.

Beside him, Senior Swordswoman chuckled and said, ”Xiao Yi, the brat, just scanned everyone with his gaze, probably sensing everyone’s cultivation.”

”Yet when his gaze landed on you, it lingered, and he frowned.”

”Naturally, he was frowning at your cultivation, Ye Ming, which is the lowest.”

Senior Swordswoman, in fact, had always been incredibly clever, and she instantly saw through Xiao Yi’s thoughts.

”Ha.” Ye Ming couldn’t help but laugh at himself, ”Actually, I’m already quite happy to be here.”

”Originally, with my talent, Senior Swordswoman logically shouldn’t have brought me...”

”Ye Ming, you are quite honest.” Senior Swordswoman nodded without hesitation.

”Logically, with your talents, you indeed don’t have the qualifications to come with me.”

Back then, the Flame Martial Palace Master’s intention was for Senior Swordswoman to bring along the hopes of the Eastern Domain, the most outstanding Heavenly Talents, to set off together to the Central Region.

Ye Ming’s talent was obviously not very high.

”However.” Senior Swordswoman smiled, ”I saw how well you were getting along with Xiao Yi, and back then, while following him, your cultivation didn’t fall behind too much. Instead, your cultivation surpassed most Heavenly Talents.”

”So I brought you along as well.”

”Now that I think about it, I should probably just hand you back to Xiao Yi.”

”Uh.” Hearing this, Ye Ming’s face was full of embarrassment.

Xiao Yi also chuckled.

”I must say, Xiao Yi, you’ve done quite well these past years.”

With the crisis gone, Senior Swordswoman returned to her usual lazy and playful self.

”Your name, Xiao Yi the little thief, is quite renowned indeed.”

The group was particularly low-key, so Xiao Yi didn’t know them.

But now, throughout the Central Region, who doesn’t know Xiao Yi?

Naturally, Senior Swordswoman and the others were aware of his reputation.

And at this moment, Senior Swordswoman playfully uttered the term ’little thief.’

”Heh.” Xiao Yi chuckled.

”Those two kids, you recognize them, right?” Senior Swordswoman pointed to the Vice Dean and then to Chengfeng.

At this time, since they weren’t discussing matters related to the Eastern Domain, Xiao Yi had long since dispersed the surrounding barriers.

In the high sky, Chengfeng, obviously noticing Senior Swordswoman’s gesture and hearing the conversation, couldn’t help but twitch his face.

”Hey, I say...” Senior Swordswoman was about to say something, while affectionately placing an arm around Xiao Yi’s shoulder.

”Hmm?” Xiao Yi frowned slightly, subconsciously shrugging his shoulder.

With his current strength, he could easily defeat a peerless martial artist, so this subconscious shrug was more than Senior Swordswoman could withstand.

Therefore, before Senior Swordswoman could finish her words, she was already bumped back a few steps.

”Uh... Senior Swordswoman, I’m sorry.” Xiao Yi promptly apologized.

It was a completely subconscious action by him just now.

In the past, while in the Eastern Domain, whenever Senior Swordswoman placed a hand on his shoulder, he would reflexively shrug it off.

The reason was to prevent strong figures like Senior Swordswoman from investigating him.

After all, at that time, Senior Swordswoman was notoriously unpredictable.

However, he forgot that back in the Eastern Domain, Senior Swordswoman’s strength far exceeded his.

So when he shrugged her off back then, it didn’t matter much.

But now, his strength far exceeded hers.

His subconscious shrug naturally pushed Senior Swordswoman back quite a bit.

”What do you mean by this?” Senior Swordswoman steadied herself after being pushed back a few steps, her face instantly cold like frost.

”Senior Swordswoman, I didn’t mean to...” Xiao Yi wanted to explain something.

Senior Swordswoman interrupted, ”Tsk tsk, well, young man, you’ve grown some skills now, and there’s no longer a need to pay me any mind.”

Senior Swordswoman clearly looked youthful, and her features were breathtakingly beautiful, stunning and breathtaking.

So when she used the words ’me, the elder,’ although she was serious, it seemed she was joking.

But Xiao Yi knew very well that at this moment, Senior Swordswoman was genuinely angry.

You would think, after just reuniting, speaking briefly, he ’rudely’ pushed her away; such a ’distant’ action was bound to anger Senior Swordswoman.

”What? Do you think I’m trying to take advantage of you?” Senior Swordswoman spoke coldly.

”Or do you think you’ve become so impressive that I need to curry favor with you?”

”Senior Swordswoman, you’ve misunderstood, I don’t mean it like that...” Xiao Yi hastily explained.

But on the face of the Senior Swordswoman, there was still the look of Cold Frost.

”Master, Junior Brother Xiao Yi, she...”

”Senior Swordswoman, Junior Brother Xiao Yi didn’t do it intentionally, you...”

Beside them, Bai Bingxue and Ye Ming quickly spoke up.

”No need to speak for him.” Senior Swordswoman said coldly, ”Alright, within ten breaths, immediately leave this ship, the farther the better.”

”Uh, this...” Xiao Yi’s face showed embarrassment.

In the high sky, the surrounding Main Hall Masters saw this and couldn’t help but chuckle coldly.

Especially having seen Xiao Yi, who was so formidable and intimidating earlier, now being scolded without daring to retort, they involuntarily sneered.

”Internal strife? That’s good too.” Bai Yue coldly laughed.

Chengfeng Hall Master saw this, but frowned slightly, ”This woman, so overbearing? With Xiao Yi’s character, he actually doesn’t retort?”

Below.

Xiao Yi nodded slightly and said, ”Alright then, as Senior Swordswoman is injured, let’s not anger her. I’ll leave.”

Feeling he was at fault, Xiao Yi didn’t explain further.

Xiao Yi gave a salute and turned to leave.

Just at this moment, a cold laugh sounded from the high sky above.

”Leaving? Now thinking you can leave?” A Main Hall Master snorted coldly, ”You killed the Heavenly Mechanism Hall Main Hall Master Jin Juexuan publicly, and now you want to leave casually?”

”Xiao Yi, you’re too arrogant.”

”Let me tell you.” Jiang Liuhuo’s voice was cold, ”Didn’t you just want to ask us the reason for the wanted poster from the other Five Halls?”

”It’s simple. We suspect that the group behind you who are wanted, are Evil Cultivators.”

”Eight Palace Martial Artists are destroying Evil Cultivators, yet you hinder us. Even if you are the Vice Hall Master of Wind Shattering Hall, don’t think you can escape.”

”Evil Cultivators?” Xiao Yi frowned slightly, then coldly laughed, ”Ridiculous.”

Whether they were Evil Cultivators, he would not know? Simply ridiculous.

”If you think you’re capable of stopping me, go ahead and try.”

”Once I’ve dealt with Mo Youh’s matters, I’ll come back for you.”

Xiao Yi’s voice was chilling to the extreme, once more filled with murderous intent.

”Furthermore.” Xiao Yi glanced at the Chengfeng Hall Master, ”From today, I don’t want to see any task from Wind Shattering Hall or Asura Hall related to Black Cloud Academy.”

”And no task shall reach the Black Cloud Academy’s hands.”

”Otherwise, I will immediately relinquish my identity in Wind Shattering Hall and Asura Hall.”

”What do you amount to?” From afar, Elder Chen shouted coldly.

”Xiao Yi, do you think yourself the Master of the Main Hall of the Two Halls? By what right can you prohibit tasks to Black Cloud Academy?”

For the Black Cloud Academy, these hall tasks are their sole means of tempering and assessing their disciples.

It is the academe’s utmost priority, naturally not tolerating loss.

”Fine.” Unexpectedly, Chengfeng Hall Master looked at Xiao Yi and nodded seriously.

”His words are equivalent to the intentions of the General Hall Masters of the Wind Shattering and Asura Halls.”

”What?” The surrounding Main Hall Masters changed their expressions drastically at these words.

”His words are equivalent to the intentions of the two General Hall Masters of Wind Shattering and Asura Halls, does that mean he...”

There’s only one possibility for having such authority.

It is that Xiao Yi is already the successor of the two General Hall Masters of Wind Shattering and Asura Halls.

While the two halls have not announced the next successor to the world, Chengfeng Hall Master’s words represented it all.

Everyone suddenly understood, no wonder Chengfeng Hall Master and Hengtian Palace Master had been protecting Xiao Yi.

”Successor of the Two Hall General Masters...” The surrounding Hall Masters’ expressions changed considerably, becoming extremely fearful.

”Chengfeng Hall Master.” Xiao Yi looked at Chengfeng Hall Master, saluted, and said, ”I entrust my friends and seniors to your care.”

”Rest assured.” Chengfeng Hall Master nodded.

Xiao Yi turned around, looked at Senior Swordswoman, cupped his hands and said, ”Senior Swordswoman, please calm down.”

”Mo Youh is a disciple of Heavenly Hidden Academy, I’m going to seek justice, then I’ll return.”

”No need.” Senior Swordswoman said coldly.

”Who said we need you to seek justice for us?”

”Uh, this...” Xiao Yi frowned slightly.

Senior Swordswoman coldly said, ”You came here with Yi Xiao, you should have some means of communicating with each other?”

”Yes.” Xiao Yi instinctively nodded.

”Then that’s fine.” Senior Swordswoman waved her hand, ”You call Yi Xiao over, you don’t need to come back.”

”Yi Xiao?” In the high sky, Chengfeng Hall Master frowned.

The surrounding Hall Masters were again surprised, ”Yi Xiao? Could it be...”
