Myth Beyond Heaven Chapter 780 Sunlight Banquet (3)

Nantian Jiyou thought for a moment and said. “I can confirm this. The demise of Tianqi Zongwei was indeed caused by them.”

The elders glanced at each other in astonishment. From what they knew, Tianqi Zongwei was an unparalleled existence, the legendary ninth-level of the Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm. Such a pinnacle of existence had actually fallen in the Poison Valley’s hand!

Yun Lintian glanced at Nantian Jiyou in surprise. Although Jue Kong could not be counted as the Poison Valley member, there was indeed a connection between them. It seemed the Divine Phoenix Palace’s intelligence network could not be underestimated in the slightest… No wonder she could figure out my identity in a short time.

Zhou Chong took a deep breath and said. “I’ll contact other city lords after this. We should prepare for the worst scenario.”

“Since Elder Nantian said this, we shall prepare, too.” Situ Wuyou nodded in agreement. “However, we should pay attention to Heaven Vault Island’s matter first.”

Situ Wuyou looked at everyone and said calmly. “I believe everyone in this place has the same goal. That is, to find out the culprit. With this, cooperation between everyone is inevitable. I have a suggestion; why don’t we let our younger disciples exchange pointers? It may even liven things up and deepen the relationship amongst them. What do you think?”

Everyone turned to look at Situ Wuyou with a thoughtful expression. Only a fool could not see the hidden agenda in Situ Wuyou’s words. The Great Earth Sect was well-known for its domineering attitude. He probably wanted to establish prestige among the younger generations.

“Elder Situ’s suggestion is wonderful.” Xue Suzhu was the first to agree.

Even though she had a high status, her playful personality hadn’t faded in the slightest. She would love to see a good show. And when she spoke this, she inadvertently glanced at Yun Lintian. Evidently, she was looking forward to seeing his performance.

Meanwhile, Wen Zizai and Tong Wanyu didn’t express their opinions. They were fine with anything at the moment.

“What do you think, Elder Nantian?” Situ Wuyou pressed forward.

Nantian Jiyou revealed a faint smile. “I think it’s a good idea. My disciples always lack good sparring partners. They could use this chance to learn from others.”

“Alright!” Situ Wuyou said loudly. He turned to Zhou Chong and said. “I’ll have to trouble Old City Lord Zhou.”

Zhou Chong stroked his beard and said with a kind smile. “No problem.”

He sent a signal to a middle-aged man behind him, and the latter quickly jumped onto the stage.

Boom!

The stage shuddered shortly, and a thick transparent barrier instantly appeared around it. Judging from its look, this barrier should be able to withstand a Monarch’s power with no problem.

The middle-aged man, Qin Ao, retreated to the side and said respectfully.” Since it is a sparring match, we will adopt a universal rule. First of all, killing is not allowed here. When the opponent admits defeat, the attacker should stop immediately. Leaving the stage will be counted as a forfeit. Are we clear?” He paused for a moment and continued. “The stage is ready. We can start the battle at any time.”

The elders nodded their heads, indicating they acknowledged it.

“Hehe. Since I was the one who suggested this, I shall send one of my disciples out first.” Situ Wuyou glanced at a young man with a massive build. “Situ Yu, you go up.”

“Yes, First Elder!” The young man, Situ Yu, replied loudly and jumped onto the stage.

He swept his gaze over the younger disciples in the hall and asked. “Great Earth Sect’s Situ Yu. Is there anyone who wants to advise me?”

The younger disciples glanced at each other and waited for their elders to pick them up.

Nantian Jiyou looked at the scene and turned to a young woman who looked seventeen years old. “Liuli, do you want to go up?”

The young woman, Nantian Luili, nodded with a confident smile. “Yes, Second Elder.”

Nantian Jiyou said softly. “Don’t worry about the result.”

Compared to Situ Yu, who was at the peak of the Ruler Profound Realm, Nantian Liuli was far inferior, as she was at the eighth level of the Ruler Profound Realm. And she was the youngest disciple among the Divine Phoenix Palace’s disciples here.

Nantian Liuli bowed her head slightly and flew onto the stage. She opened her hand and said calmly. “Nantian Luili, please advise me.”

Situ Yu cupped his fists and said. “Please.”

Qin Ao looked at the two and said. “Let the fight begins.”

“Hah!” As Qin Ao’s voice fell, Situ Yu let out a battle cry, and his body was immediately covered with thick earth armor.

Nantian Luili’s brows pricked up slightly. A fiery red flame instantly appeared around her, forming a phoenix shape.

Situ Yu stared at Nantian Luili with a grin. “I’ll start now!”

Swoosh!

As he spoke, Situ Yu’s figure disappeared on the spot and reappeared in front of Nantian Liuli. He didn’t hesitate to swing his fist, which carried a mighty force on the latter’s head.

“Die!” Situ Yu shouted loudly.

Nantian Liuli’s face turned grim as a terrifying force enveloped her body from all directions. The fiery phoenix around her let out a screeching sound, and the flame instantly expanded out, forming into a tornado of flame with Nantian Liuli at the center.

Situ Yu ignored the high temperature. His fist tore the tornado’s wall and arrived at Nantian Liuli’s face with an ear-piercing sound.

“Watch out!” Below the stage, Nantian Lingyan’s expression changed drastically. She could see that Situ Yu intended to severely injure Nantian Liuli without holding back.

Before Nantian Liuli could control the phoenix flame to protect her, Situ Yu’s fist had already arrived at her cheek.

Bang!

Nantian Liuli was sent flying to the side, blood spurting out her mouth like a fountain. At this moment, she felt her skull was breaking all over the place, and her mind went blank before landing heavily on the ground.

“Junior Sister Liuli!” Nantian Lingyan flew onto the stage and quickly channeled her profound energy to stabilize Nantian Liuli’s injury while glaring at Situ Yu.

“Are you trying to kill her?” Nantian Lingyan said coldly.

Situ Yu shrugged his shoulders and said casually. “Please don’t slander me, Fairy Nantian. Who would have thought that she would be this weak? You can’t blame me for this, right?”

The hall fell into a deadly silence instantly…
