The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 296: Chapter 296 Sun Xiao Came Chapter 296: Chapter 296 Sun Xiao Came Sun Xiao’s face showed little change, but his heart was somewhat annoyed.

He was well aware that Qian Bo did not respect him much, yet he was powerless to do anything about it.

Qian Bo’s elder brother had once instructed him to take good care of Qian Bo in the Outer Court.

If it weren’t for this reason, he would not bother with Qian Bo, the scoundrel.

Nevertheless, he still had to look after Qian Bo.

Now that Qian Bo had been taught a lesson, it was his duty to retrieve the situation, otherwise he would be unable to explain himself to Qian Bo’s elder brother, Qian Zhen.

“Look quickly!”

“It’s Senior Brother Sun Xiao!”

“Senior Brother Sun Xiao has come to Setting Sun Valley, is he going to enter the High-level Cultivation Pool to cultivate?”

After Qian Bo and Sun Xiao entered the Setting Sun Valley, the Martial Artists in the valley immediately recognized Sun Xiao.

Ranking eighth on the War God List, his fame was naturally immense.

Likely, more than ninety percent of the Martial Artists in the Outer Court of Dao Yi Academy recognized Sun Xiao.

“Among you, did anyone see Zhang Min entering the valley with a young Martial Artist?” Sun Xiao paused slightly, sweeping his gaze over the numerous Martial Artists as he spoke.

Actually, Sun Xiao did not know Zhang Min, and he wasn’t aware of this person until recently when he heard the name from Qian Bo.

“I saw it, Senior Sister Zhang Min indeed entered the valley with a young Martial Artist,” said a nervous voice from a Low-level Student.

Sun Xiao glanced at the Low-level Student and then, along with Qian Bo, hastened towards the depths of the valley.

“What does Senior Brother Sun Xiao want with Zhang Min?”

“It seems like it’s not anything good!”

“Let’s go, let’s see…”

Most people loved a spectacle.

Although they still did not know the reason Sun Xiao was looking for Zhang Min, they all saw that Sun Xiao’s expression was very serious; most likely it was not anything good, perhaps to make trouble for Zhang Min.

Furthermore, Qian Bo was also following Sun Xiao, and many students knew Qian Bo as a villain.

In front of the High-level Cultivation Pool’s entrance, Jing Yan embedded Zhang Min’s Identity Token into the slot.

“Click!

Click!”

As the vibration traveled, a grinding sound followed.

The heavy stone doors slowly moved to each side.

A thick Primordial Energy surged from inside, making one’s every pore seem to relax.

The effects of the High-level Cultivation Pool were indeed impressive.

Jing Yan squinted, also contemplating whether he should enter the High-level Cultivation Pool to cultivate for some time.

However, after lending Zhang Min three thousand Points, he was left with only seven thousand Points.

This only sufficed for seven days of cultivation in the High-level Cultivation Pool—too brief a period.

Better to wait until he gathered more Points.

Even without lending Zhang Min three thousand Points, Jing Yan only had ten thousand Points, enough for only ten days in the High-level Cultivation Pool, which was clearly far from enough to elevate Jing Yan to the Peak of Innate.

“Senior Sister, please go ahead and cultivate,” Jing Yan stepped aside, turned slightly, and said to Zhang Min.

Zhang Min, her face flushed with excitement, looked like an enticing apple.

She had never cultivated in the High-level Cultivation Pool before, and now, she needed only to step forward to enter.

“Jing Yan, perhaps you should go ahead and cultivate,” said Zhang Min.

Although she was very eager to enter the High-level Cultivation Pool, she still had some reluctance.

She didn’t like owing favors, especially since it was a full three thousand Points.

“Senior Sister, the Cultivation Pool is already open; by wasting time like this, you are wasting Points,” Jing Yan shook his head, regretfully said.

“Ha ha, Zhang Min, what is your relationship with this youngster, huh?

Tsk tsk, the two of you are even being polite before the High-level Cultivation Pool.

If that’s the case, how about you let me have the High-level Cultivation Pool?” a rugged-looking Martial Artist shouted up at Jing Yan and Zhang Min as he leaped up from below.

He was also an Intermediate Student and seemed to know Zhang Min as well.

“An Hu, it’s none of your business!” Zhang Min glanced at him and frowned, speaking in a low tone.

“Ha ha, Zhang Min, how could you possibly have so many Points to use the High-level Cultivation Pool?

The Points must have been provided by this youngster, right?

This youngster really is quite wealthy.

Tell me, what exactly is your relationship with him?

Hey hey, you don’t have to say it; I can guess.

This youngster must have taken a liking to you, using the High-level Cultivation Pool to curry favor with you, huh?

Normally you seem so proper, but I didn’t expect you to… tsk tsk!” An Hu’s words were unpleasant.

In fact, he was just jealous.

He too was an Intermediate Student and had never used the High-level Cultivation Pool.

He was indeed familiar with Zhang Min, also residing within Green Sun Garden, and knew her quite well.

He knew that Zhang Min didn’t have any significant background, and it was even less likely that she could accumulate enough Points to squander in the High-level Cultivation Pool.

Thus, he naturally guessed that the Points were provided by Jing Yan.

While Jing Yan seemed to be a newcomer who had just joined the Dao Yi Academy, it wasn’t hard to understand why this newcomer had so many points.

Some newcomers from major families possess extensive resources, which could be exchanged for points in the treasure vault of the Dao Yi Academy.

Such individuals were not uncommon within the Academy.

Perhaps these people didn’t have great strength, but with their wealth and resources, they could obtain Academy points and use them freely.

Zhang Min’s expression soured as she looked at An Hu and then glanced at some Martial Artists gathering below.

She knew that she wasn’t the only one who thought like An Hu, likely the majority assumed Jing Yan had that kind of relationship with her.

“Are you called An Hu?” Jing Yan squinted at An Hu.

“Yes, I am An Hu.

Lad, what’s your name?” An Hu also stared at Jing Yan.

“What I am called is none of your business!

Now, I advise you to roll out of here quickly,” Jing Yan said with a smile, his voice indifferent.

“Hmm?” An Hu’s eyebrows suddenly tightened, a fierce light flickering in his eyes, “Lad, are you fucking seeking death?

Daring to speak to me that way?

Do you think Zhang Min can protect you?

Do you believe I could kill you right now?”

Killing Jing Yan was definitely something An Hu wouldn’t dare do.

However, giving Jing Yan a beating wasn’t a big deal.

“Scram!” A surge of Primordial Energy burst forth, rushing towards An Hu.

Jing Yan was too lazy to waste more words on An Hu.

An Hu’s complexion changed; he only felt an overwhelming force bearing down on him, then his body was slammed out.

He tried his best to wield his Primordial Energy to control his body, but it was to no avail.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he flew out beyond the platform in front of the Cultivation Pool and fell down below.

When he landed, he couldn’t even stabilize himself and staggered backward a few steps, nearly sitting down abruptly.

The shocked An Hu stared at Jing Yan as he landed; he still couldn’t determine what had happened.

It seemed that the lad with Zhang Min had struck him, but he hadn’t seen the lad make a move; from beginning to end, the lad seemed not even to have lifted his arms.

What exactly was going on?

An Hu was bewildered, and so were the others.

“An Hu, you’re really useless, huh?”

“That’s right, you got scared off just like that by that lad’s words?

Hahaha, you might as well have not gone up in the first place.”

“You’re regressing, getting scared by a newcomer like that?” The surrounding Martial Artists jeered at An Hu.

They didn’t realize that An Hu had been thrown out by a force; they thought he had jumped down himself.

Clearly, he had been scared down.

That lad had told him to scram, and he just scrammed back.

Hearing these mocking voices, An Hu’s face turned iron blue, yet he couldn’t refute.

What could he say?

Even he didn’t know what happened!

But one thing he was sure of, that lad was somewhat evil.

So, he dared not go back up again, at least for now it was better not to go up again, better to wait and see.

“It’s that lad!”

Just then, a furious roar came from behind.

Qian Bo and Sun Xiao rushed over quickly; that roar had come from Qian Bo, who had already spotted Zhang Min and Jing Yan in front of the cavern.

“Little bastard, did you think hiding here would mean I couldn’t find you?” Qian Bo sneered loudly, his gaze venomous as a viper.

In Green Sun Garden, Jing Yan had slapped him twice, and although some time had passed, his cheeks were still swollen.

Although he had used a Healing Potion, reducing the swelling would still take time.

This was a humiliation, and Qian Bo couldn’t wait to flay and debone Jing Yan.

“Senior Brother Qian Bo?”

“Senior Brother Sun Xiao?”

After Qian Bo and Sun Xiao arrived, the expressions of the nearby Martial Artists changed; most of them bowed to Qian Bo and Sun Xiao in greeting.

Qian Bo was a High-level Student, and Sun Xiao was not only a High-level Student but also the eighth-ranked fighter on the War God List.

Seeing Qian Bo furious, his neck swelling like a pig’s head, and hearing what Qian Bo said, they quickly realized he was there for trouble with Zhang Min and the lad in green clothes.

Moreover, it seemed mainly to be about the lad in green clothes.

However, nobody had seen this lad in green clothes before; he was almost certainly a newcomer who had just joined Dao Yi Academy.

How could a newcomer have offended Qian Bo?

Could it be that Qian Bo knew this lad in green clothes was extremely wealthy and wanted to extort a hefty sum in points?

But that didn’t make sense; even so, Senior Brother Sun Xiao shouldn’t have come along, should he?

Everyone pondered in their hearts.

“This is bad, Senior Brother Sun Xiao has come so quickly,” Zhang Min murmured, frowning.

“Is that the Sun Xiao from the War God List, ranked eighth?” Jing Yan glanced at the tall, thin Martial Artist next to Qian Bo and focused his gaze.

“Yes, that is Senior Brother Sun Xiao.

Jing Yan, what should we do now?

Maybe you should quickly enter the Cultivation Pool.

As long as you enter the Cultivation Pool, even Sun Xiao can’t disrupt the Cultivation Pool,” Zhang Min suggested, indicating that Jing Yan should find a place to hide.

It wasn’t that she thought Sun Xiao’s strength was greater than Jing Yan’s but rather that Sun Xiao’s identity as a member of the Criminal Punishment Hall was what made him frightening!
