I Fabricated the Techniques, but My Disciple Really Mastered Them?

“Could they really be coming for me?”

Li Xuan muttered to himself, suddenly becoming intrigued.

“Let’s see how you make your move.”

Li Xuan acted as if he hadn’t noticed anything, silently waiting.

Before long, Ping Qiu and Emperor Da Yue arrived.

This was at Ping Qiu’s request. After learning about the miraculous effects of the Formation and the Pill, he pleaded with Emperor Da Yue to meet Fang Hao and Su Lingxiu in person to purchase the Array Plate and Pills.

The goal was naturally to strengthen the defenses of Broken Dawn Mountain and to guard against attacks from Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow.

Emperor Da Yue pondered for a moment and didn’t want to snub Ping Qiu—after all, he was an Immortal Heavenly Venerable and he represented Broken Dawn Mountain with good intentions.

So, he personally accompanied Ping Qiu for the visit.

Feng Yan asked with a puzzled face.

“Feng Yan? Since you’re also here, that’s even better. Say a few good words for me. I’m here to buy the Array Plate and Pills and to visit Brother Fang Hao and Miss Su Lingxiu.”

Ping Qiu was slightly surprised, then said joyfully.

He hoped Feng Yan would say a good word for him, considering their shared status as Immortals of the Nine Mountain Realm, which would help him smoothly purchase the Array Plate and Pills.

“No problem, as long as you can afford the treasures,”

Feng Yan nodded.

Whether praised or not, that didn’t matter. As long as Ping Qiu could afford the treasures, he would naturally be able to purchase the desired items.

Fang Hao and Su Lingxiu only cared about the treasures when selling the Array Plate and Pills.

Neither Emperor Da Yue nor Feng Yan suspected Ping Qiu, as it had already been confirmed over the past days that Ping Qiu was trustworthy.

If he were an attacker, why would he reveal the plans of Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow outright?

“It’s time to make a move.”

Li Xuan glanced at that Immortal Heavenly Venerable in the clouds, who had subtly moved closer, maintaining a clever distance that wouldn’t be noticed by Emperor Da Yue but could unleash a destructive strike in an instant.

One could tell he was an experienced assassin.

Fang Hao and Su Lingxiu came forward, Ping Qiu was taking out treasures, discussing with them the purchase of the Array Plate and Pills, and understanding their usage.

He showed no intention of attacking.

Even though they were so close, he had no thought of taking any action.

After all, with Emperor Da Yue and Feng Yan nearby, even if he attacked suddenly, he might not necessarily kill his targets.

Moreover, there was also an unknown, mysterious powerful presence.

“The alert Formation you asked for, this set is the most suitable. It covers a wide range, and once someone intrudes, it will trigger an alarm and activate the Formation’s power…”

Fang Hao took out a set of Array Plates, explaining their function to Ping Qiu.

Boom!

Suddenly, a terrifying aura descended swiftly and overwhelmingly. As soon as the aura appeared, a powerful attack had already arrived.

“Watch out!”

Ping Qiu suddenly changed, his aura surging as he launched a fierce strike, as if trying to fend off the incoming attack.

In response, Emperor Da Yue’s expression changed, and his halberd instantly struck out, thunderously attacking the Immortal Heavenly Venerable who had suddenly descended from the clouds.

“Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow?!”

Emperor Da Yue was furiously shocked in his heart. An Immortal Heavenly Venerable had infiltrated and he had completely failed to notice. How had the enemy managed it?

The terrifying Domain Power poured down at that moment. The attacker had launched a brutal strike, not aimed at him or Feng Yan, but at Fang Hao and Su Lingxiu.

The power of the strike was immensely broad, hiding a true killing intent within. If they couldn’t completely defend against it, even a slight residual wave could kill anyone below a True King Heavenly Venerable.

“How audacious!”

Feng Yan roared in anger. A layer of rock-like power emerged from him, and with a thunderous sound, the rock-like defense instantly expanded, shielding both Su Lingxiu and Fang Hao.

Pfft!

A cold light suddenly stabbed at his defense, and with a pfft, it seemed as if the rock was punctured.

Feng Yan’s face changed, his aura surged, and he punched out with a powerful demolition force, rising to the sky, attacking the incoming assailant.

This immense force of demolition caused even Emperor Da Yue to startle. Feng Yan actually possessed such formidable Martial Arts?

In terms of sheer overpowering force alone, Feng Yan’s punch was much more violent than his Halberd.

This was precisely the secret Divine Skill Feng Yan had arduously cultivated—the Great Demolition Fist.

“Die!”

The Immortal Heavenly Venerable attacked. At this moment, a chilling aura surged around him. His aura became violent, and in that instant, he used a costly secret technique.

“Together, block him!”

Ping Qiu roared furiously, his aura erupting, his eyes red with apparent hatred for the attacker.

Boom!

He made his move, a powerful strike directed towards the sky. His figure shifted, seemingly wanting to soar into the heavens to intercept the assailant.

However, in the blink of an eye, Ping Qiu suddenly shifted his stance. Taking advantage of the moment Feng Yan’s defenses were breached, he tore through the rock-like defenses and, raising his hand, struck towards Fang Hao and Su Lingxiu!

This sudden turn of events was completely unexpected by Emperor Da Yue and Feng Yan.

Ping Qiu had already earned their trust.

Moreover, he had just made a great effort to fend off an assassination attempt.

They had no idea that he was the true assassin!

“Ping Qiu!”

Emperor Da Yue was unable to restrain his fury, yet at this moment, he was unable to turn back to help.

Feng Yan’s face turned red with anger, and with a roar, he let the attacks from above pour down upon him, his body clad in rock-like armor. He hurried to shield Fang Hao and Su Lingxiu with his own body, using the greatest speed he had ever mustered.

“I won’t die! As long as I don’t die, it’s worth it!”

Feng Yan gritted his teeth in determination.

Li Xuan’s mouth twitched. Feng Yan, the old fool, was really pushing his limits to show off. But, in the presence of his superior, did it seem right for a disciple to use his body as a shield to block attacks? Where did that put the face of his superior?

He had been watching all along, waiting to see how Ping Qiu would coordinate with that assailant, and whether the attack would come for him. But the moment the attacker in the sky made his move, Li Xuan knew the target wasn’t him.

It was Fang Hao and Su Lingxiu.

“Is this to provoke me by killing my disciples, thus infuriating me into creating chaos in the Divine Realm? Interesting!”

Li Xuan instantly understood the opposition’s intention.

Moreover, he could almost be sure that the Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow had infiltrated the ranks of many powerful factions in the Divine Realm, including some revered Immortal Heavenly Venerables.

To annihilate an Immortal Heavenly Venerable, to some extent, would mean making enemies of the major powers.

“Humph!”

Li Xuan let out a light hum, which, like thunder, trembled the spirit of the Immortal Heavenly Venerable.

Before Ping Qiu’s attack could reach Fang Hao and Su Lingxiu, and before Feng Yan could use the attack from above to accelerate and block the incoming attack for Fang Hao and Su Lingxiu, a Vajra Giant Hand, wrapped in furious thunder and unmatched in dominance, suddenly emerged.

With the appearance of the Vajra Giant Hand, all attacks seemed to dissipate like mist. The thunder rumbled as though it could destroy worlds.

With one grasp of the Vajra Giant Hand, it directly caught Ping Qiu. No matter how he struggled or frantically attacked, it was all in vain.

Thunder roared and the domineering grip of the hand silenced Ping Qiu’s screams before they could even escape, reducing him to ash.

The Vajra Giant Hand reached into the sky and grabbed the attacking Immortal Heavenly Venerable, whose expression was one of utter terror. Despite exerting all his strength and using some secret techniques, he could not escape at all.

“Dare to play tricks in my presence, you mere ants?”

A voice of supreme authority resounded, and with one grip of the Vajra hand wrapped in thunder, the assailant was reduced to nothing.

All attacks, all of the violent power of the Immortal Heavenly Venerable, were smoothed over in that moment.

From the beginning of the assassination to Ping Qiu’s sneak attack, it all happened in a mere instant. Moon Changming and the others didn’t even have time to react; everything calmed under the thunderous Vajra Giant Hand.

The aftermath of the battle involving the Immortal Heavenly Venerable hadn’t even had time to spread before it was smoothed over.

It was as if nothing had happened, as if the attack from the Immortal Heavenly Venerable had been just an illusion!

Only Emperor Da Yue and Feng Yan were deeply shocked.

The superior was truly unfathomable.

“In the presence of the superior, Ping Qiu’s sneak attack was nothing but a joke. The superior had already seen through everything, merely watching the play unfold.”

Emperor Da Yue sighed inwardly.

Yet Feng Yan was immensely frustrated: “I’m so dull! How did I not realize that Ping Qiu was the real assassin? If only I had used my body to block his attack, what an opportunity to prove myself wasted!”
