Chapter 131: I'm Just a Poor Student 1
“Old monster?”
Lu Rang felt it peculiar but he couldn’t be bothered to explain further, saying:
“Since you all consider me an elder predecessor, then I’ll teach this youngster how to behave. What’s wrong, not convinced?”
Upon hearing this, the two Old Immortals were left speechless.
“This place is guarded by the Four Great Alliances altogether. You’re taking advantage of your seniority by taking action against a junior. You’ll bear all the consequences yourself!”
They threatened coldly.
“Enough talk, if you’ve got the guts, try to strike, otherwise beat it.”
Lu Rang was utterly disdainful.
From beginning to end, these people had repeatedly insulted them, and they were no pushovers.
“Very well, very well!”Yet the two Old Immortals dared not make a move and turned to leave.
“And you, young man, you’re really asking for it.”
Lu Rang then turned to look at Duanmu Yang.
Since he had already taken action, he was ready to teach a harsh lesson and let the opponent know what cruelty meant!
“You… what do you want to do? I am from the Duanmu Family, if you dare to lay a hand on me, our Celestial Immortals will never let you off!”
Duanmu Yang’s face suddenly became very ugly!
He had not expected that these two seemingly country bumpkins were actually old monsters?
The key point was, he had now offended them to death.
“Duanmu Family? Old Heavenly Immortal?”
Lu Rang said, “Even if a Golden Immortal were here, your grandfather wouldn’t be scared!”
With that, he slapped out with his hand!
“Alt—”
Duanmu Yang was sent flying miserably.
“Bang!”
He crashed heavily onto the ground, breaking dozens of ribs.
The crowd all had complex expressions.
This person was too bold and arrogant.
Although they were seniors, one must know that the Duanmu Family was a household of Heavenly Immortals. Who would dare provoke them normally?
Let alone the fact that he had also beaten Ning Tianhao’s direct grandson, the Alliance Hierarch of Earth Wind Alliance!
“You!”
“Your Excellency’s actions, our Duanmu Family will remember this!”
The two Old Immortals who had come to protect Duanmu Yang also appeared extremely shocked and angered.
But they too did not dare to take action and instead hastily helped Duanmu Yang up and fed him a Miraculous Elixir. Instantly, Duanmu Yang’s breath slowly recovered.
On the other side, Ning Zhaoran was also being helped up, similarly in the midst of healing!
“Anyone who’s not convinced can come and try again.”
Lu Rang was very straightforward.
All those present frowned, not daring to say much else.
“Are you two old monsters?”
Xia Yao, who had been following them, also asked with some daze.
Upon hearing this, Lu Rang immediately said:
“Miss Xia Yao, please don’t misunderstand, we’re certainly not any old monsters, we are young men as graceful as Jade Trees!”
“Ugh!”
Xia Yao made a face at him.
However, next to Xia Yao, Qing Lan’s beautiful eyes revealed a trace of contemplation.
“Senior Ji from Yellow Sky State has arrived!”
At this moment, a loud call came.
Everyone turned to look and saw Ji Yuanqing and a group of elders already approaching.
This included the Sect Master Yin Yuanchen from Dark Moon Sect and several old Profound Immortals from the Four Great Alliances!
“Has everyone arrived?”
Ji Yuanqing enquired.
“Reporting to the elders, everyone has arrived and we can now begin,” one of the Old Immortal stepped forward and continued, “However, someone has caused trouble at the scene!”
He pointed at Lu Rang and said:
“This man, clearly already a True Immortal in cultivation level, is posing as a young person and causing chaos here. He has beaten Ning Zhaoran and Duanmu Yang successively!”
Upon hearing this, several Old Heavenly Immortals immediately turned their gaze to Lu Rang!
Their expressions were quite unfriendly.
“What do you mean by this, Your Excellency? As a senior figure, you took action against a member of my Duanmu Family, is this bullying the younger?”
One of the old Profound Immortals from the Duanmu Family immediately stepped forward.
Lu Rang, however, was unabashed as he said:
“Stop slandering me already, I’m just twenty-one this year and preparing to find a wife. Calling me an old monster or senior left and right, how am I supposed to get by later on? If you ruin my reputation, how will you compensate?”
“Shameless!”
“Simply disgusting!”
Everyone was at a loss for words.
“Such audacity, does the Duanmu Family have no one left?”
The old Profound Immortal from the Duanmu Family was about to step forward for a battle.
But, at this moment, Ji Yuanqing frowned and said:
“Gentlemen, we should not resort to conflict at this site!”
“Moreover, do not forget the Edict of Xuan Tianzhou, peace is of utmost importance!”
Hearing this, the face of the old Profound Immortal from the Duanmu Family changed.
The more powerful a Cultivator’s realm, the more they dreaded that Edict from Xuan Tianzhou, and dared not transgress.
The old Profound Immortal said solemnly:
“He is provoking my Duanmu Family!”
Ji Yuanqing said, “No matter what, you must not start a dispute in this place!”
After speaking, he looked towards Lu Rang and said:
“In that case, since he insists on being part of the younger generation, let him come forward and sit on the white bone chair in front.”
Upon hearing this, everyone also shivered!
“Hehe, if a senior sits on it, death is certain!”
“Even several Heavenly Immortals have perished, a mere True Immortal will only face one way out—death!”
“Senior Ji’s method is good; if someone wants to pose as a member of the younger generation, let them face the consequences!”
The crowd sneered and jeered.
The many Old Heavenly Immortals from the Four Great Alliances also spoke up:
“If Your Excellency wishes to pose as the younger generation, then take a seat and see for yourself!”
“Please give it a try, Your Excellency!”
“As long as Your Excellency can come down alive from the white bone chair, we will let bygones be bygones; otherwise, if Your Excellency insists on provocation, don’t blame us for taking action!”
They were full of threats.
Lu Rang was also taken aback for a moment, looking toward the front.
Before them, there was a terrifying barrier.
And outside the barrier, there was a bone table and two bone chairs, on which chess pieces were arranged across the tabletop.
“Is this bone chair really that evil?”
He immediately went forward and, without any hesitation, sat down!
“He’s seeking death!”
“He’ll perish instantly…”
The crowd coldly jeered, all waiting to see the scene of Lu Rang’s demise.
But then, one second passed.
Two seconds.
Three seconds…
Lu Rang was still perfectly fine!
“What’s the matter? Is the chair supposed to be terrifying? Why hasn’t it turned me, an old man, to dust?”
Lu Rang sneered.
Seeing this, the onlookers were all dumbfounded.
“That shouldn’t be… countless people from the Four Great Alliances have tested it before: anyone over forty who sits there is certain to die!”
“Could it be that the rule figured out by the sacrifice of lives from the Four Great Alliances… was actually wrong…?”
“Impossible, the Four Great Alliances can’t be wrong!”
The crowd was extremely shocked.
And at this moment, an old Profound Immortal from the Duanmu Family was even more startled, exclaiming:
“This person… is he really under forty years old?”
Under forty!
This statement rendered everyone even more shocked to the extreme!
” What? A True Immortal under forty? Is this defying the heavens?”
“Impossible! Even within the Four Great Alliances, no one has achieved this!”
“To break through to the True Immortal Realm before forty, isn’t that something seen once in ten thousand years?!”
Everyone exclaimed in astonishment!
Under forty, becoming a True Immortal… this was simply inconceivable!
A monster, a genius, a once-in-an-era talent!
Those who came today were the true chosen ones from the states of the Heavenly Realm, but now in comparison to Lu Rang, they were like ants…
“Such formidable talent, such extraordinary qualifications!”
Even Ji Yuanqing couldn’t help but cry out!
At his side, the Dark Moon Sect Master Yin Yuanchen, with a stern face, suddenly had a flash of crimson light in his pupils, but no one saw it.
Among the crowd, a young man at this moment also had a very grim expression.
He was Xiao Yan from Green Rock City, Yellow Sky State!
At this moment, seeing Lu Rang, his eyes were filled with hostility.
“Kid, even in the Immortal Domain, a True Immortal under forty is a rare talent, this epoch has an adversary for you!”
The voice of the First Immortal General transmitted coldly inside him.
“I am the real protagonist, right, Elder Yang? You will help me to take him down!”
Xiao Yan spoke softly.
“Don’t worry, once you get what’s inside here, not even the strongest genius from the Immortal Domain can do anything to you,” said Yang Miechen indifferently.
The crowd was all in shock watching Lu Rang, their previous scorn and disdain swept away!
It turned out he was not some old monster, but a peerless genius.
“…You, you’re really under forty?”
Xia Yao’s mouth was agape, wide enough to fit an egg!
“Such a monstrous talent… he must come from some ancient, hidden family!” Qing Lan’s beautiful eyes were full of shock, and subconsciously, she glanced at
Dugu Yuqing.
With Lu Rang being so stunning, could Dugu Yuqing be the same kind of exceptional talent?
Lu Rang, enjoying the expressions of the crowd, felt a sense of satisfaction wash over him, thinking to himself, Heaven above, at last I feel a little sense of accomplishment.
Back in the village, his cultivation level was the worst among all his fellow disciples, so utterly inferior!
If these people knew that his most powerful sister had already broken through to the Celestial Immortal Realm, probably the entire Heavenly Realm would be shocked to the core!
He indulged in this vanity for a second, then said:
“Cough cough, actually, I’m just a poor student, the most rubbish one in our village…”
The complex expressions on everyone’s faces made them almost want to spurt blood.
That’s way too pretentious.
A peerless genius and still feigning humility here!
If that’s the most rubbish, what about the talents from the great alliances? Are they even human?
Lu Rang took the opportunity to continue:
“Cough cough, by the way, Saint Heirs and Saintesses of the great alliances, do you have any special hobbies?”
His gaze swept around, landing on a Saintess, his eyes lighting up as he said: “Miss, you are beautiful, how about coming back to my village to be a cook?” The Saintess immediately frowned and rebuked: “You brazen playboy!” “Never mind then,”
Lu Rang simply shouted out, “We’re recruiting in our village, planning to take people back to raise pigs, herd cattle, stuff like that. Any volunteers? Enrollment is open, but not for long.”
Before leaving, his master had also entrusted him to find some disciples while outside!
So, he was looking for candidates.
However, many of the young geniuses on site had ugly expressions on their faces.
“This is too much!”
” What does he take us for? To be insulted at will?”
“Does he really think that just because he’s a genius, he can demean us like this, disregard us entirely?”
Everyone was angry!
“Enough!”
At this point, the old Profound Immortal from the Duanmu Family couldn’t help but speak out in rebuke!
A genius indeed, but this arrogance was just too much.
Lu Rang turned to Ji Yuanqing and others, saying:
“Just now, you were all calling me an old monster, now, you’ve got nothing to say, right?”
The old Profound Immortal from the Duanmu Family and others were at a loss for words.
Ji Yuanqing took a deep breath and said, “Now, please step forward to break the formations!”
“According to the records of my Ji Family’s ancestors, this place was left with nine terrifying chess puzzles by our predecessors, only those of the younger generation who are destined can break through, and after breaking them, they may enter!”
– The news of Burial Immortal Mountain Range’s grand opening was spread to various states by Ji Yuanqing, and since his Ji Family had a deep study of this place, Ji Yuanqing had a very high say here, and even the Four Great Alliances had to respect him.
Upon hearing this, immediately, thousands of young disciples stepped forward! As they stepped forward, suddenly outside the barrier, one by one identical bone chess sets appeared!
All faced the same chess puzzle!
