Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 275 – Practice

In the Martial Saint Pavilion, it was quiet. Martial Saint Jiang Zushi's gaze was sharp as he swept across the many elderly men with white hair, and he couldn't suppress his anger.

With the appearance of the extraordinary treasure in the Feiyun Valley, there must be many young people who wanted to join in the fun. How could there be so many old men coming to join in the fun?

There were definitely people manipulating this sudden appearance of so many elderly people!

"Have you found out?"

Jiang Zushi beckoned the leader of the Ming family from the next generation, and said in a low voice, "Why did these old men leave their homes and come to the Feiyun Valley?"

The Ming family was also a prominent family in the Cloud Capital, and they were well-informed. This time, the spiritual weapon was taken away by the Feiyun Valley's treasure bottle, and many young members of the Ming family had their spiritual tools taken away and their clothes stripped, resulting in heavy losses. Therefore, the Ming family was most concerned about finding the culprit.

The leader of the Ming family, Ming Zhuoyang, said in a low voice, "We found out. The reason is that there are rumors in the city that there is a treasure in the Feiyun Valley's treasure bottle that can replenish the kidneys."

"Replenish the kidneys?"

Jiang Zushi was stunned for a moment, feeling somewhat annoyed. He lowered his voice and shouted, "Just because of this, these old men went there?"

Ming Zhuoyang hesitated for a moment and said, "There are also rumors that there are spiritual medicines in the Feiyun Valley that can restore youth. Some people claim to have found the spiritual medicine and after taking it, even the elderly become energetic and even visit brothels..."

Jiang Zushi felt dizzy and leaned against the wall. His voice was hoarse as he said, "Investigate..."

He raised his spirits and said coldly, "Bring these disrespectful old men down and investigate their backgrounds thoroughly!"

He couldn't accept this in his heart. He gritted his teeth and said, "When he committed the crime, all of you and I were standing in the sky. He couldn't have escaped from the Feiyun Valley. He must be among these people! To dare to commit a crime in the Cloud Capital, to dare to commit a crime under the eyes of the Holy Emperor, it's lawlessness! I cannot tolerate it!"

The Great Qin Dynasty was flourishing, and it was an extraordinary era for great achievements and territorial expansion. However, someone had stirred up trouble right under his nose. Especially since Jiang Zushi had personally taken action and was still being played by that person, he couldn't tolerate it even more.

Ming Zhuoyang hesitated and said, "Martial Saint, these old men are already at the end of their lives. If they die in prison..."

Jiang Zushi glanced at him.

Ming Zhuoyang shivered and bowed, waving his hand to order his men to take these elderly people away.

Suddenly, an old voice shouted, "I'm not an old man! My hair is naturally gray. I am an envoy from Yuanshuo. You can't arrest me!"

Jiang Zushi's gaze swept over a group of elderly men who were about to die, and then fell on Xing Jiangmu beside them. His gaze shifted slightly and landed on Su Yun.

Su Yun took out the token of the Deputy Historian of the Supervisory Office and was explaining.

Jiang Zushi walked over and waved his hand, saying, "Let him go."

The crowd released Xing Jiangmu, and he quickly bowed to Jiang Zushi to express his gratitude.

Jiang Zushi ignored him and looked at Su Yun. Su Yun smiled back, while Zuo Songyan, who had regained his youth, was very excited and curious about everything.

"Is the Deputy Historian of Yuanshuo here to watch the excitement?"

Jiang Zushi glanced at Zuo Songyan, feeling disgusted, and said unhappily, "The Martial Saint Pavilion is a sacred place of the Sword Pavilion. Outsiders are not welcome. Leave!"

Su Yun slightly bowed and smiled, "Mr. Jiang, I am here to attend class."

"Attend class?"

Jiang Zushi frowned. He couldn't drive him away easily and thought to himself, "This kid has received guidance from a master and entered the Sword Pavilion to study. On his first day, he came to my Martial Saint Pavilion to study. It seems that he knows that he can't achieve unification with just Qiu Shuijing and Yue Liuxi's methods. He still needs the knowledge of my Martial Saint Pavilion! The person who guided him should be Yue Liuxi..."

He felt a pang in his heart. "Liuxi, Liuxi, you actually sided with an outsider. But do you think I will teach him anything just because of Shuijing's face? You're wrong. I won't teach him anything!"

He didn't pay much attention to Zuo Songyan by Su Yun's side, thinking that Zuo Songyan, like Su Yun, was a scholar who came to study from Yuanshuo.

Because of the incident in the Feiyun Valley, the Martial Saint Pavilion, the sacred place of the Sword Pavilion, was also in chaos. A group of white-haired old men were crying and shouting, and the scholars who came to the Martial Saint Pavilion to attend class were also confused. They were all asking around, causing a commotion.

Su Yun took the opportunity to observe the Martial Saint Pavilion, with Xing Jiangmu and Zuo Songyan following behind him.

Su Yun looked up and saw a huge object in the center of the Martial Saint Pavilion, covered in white cloth. He didn't know what it was, but there were chains tied around it.

Su Yun gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "You're so bold! How dare you do such a big thing!"

Xing Jiangmu didn't understand what he meant. At this moment, the short and stout young man beside him walked up and said in an old-fashioned manner, "Su Shangshi has become Su Shaoshi, and he's getting more and more like an old man. You better not cause trouble in the Cloud Capital of the Great Qin Dynasty, otherwise, I'll have to cover for you."

Xing Jiangmu blinked and didn't say anything.

Su Yun looked at the white cloth and sensed the demonic aura. He felt a chill in his heart and said in a low voice, "You'll cover for me? I can cover for you too."

Zuo Songyan puffed up his cheeks, but he was still young and didn't have a beard to puff up.

Su Yun sneered, "I taught you the Great Unification Technique in Shuofang City. It can only be used in the Foundation Establishment Realm. You can only rely on the Great Unification Technique in the Foundation Establishment Realm and the eight kinds of divine demons on the Ascending Heaven Terrace to maintain your youthful appearance. It probably won't last long, right?"

Zuo Songyan felt a chill in his heart and turned to look at Jiang Zushi. He saw that Jiang Zushi was still in the Martial Saint Pavilion, his gaze sharp as he scanned the surroundings.

Now, he didn't dare to leave directly. If he left directly, he would definitely be suspected.

"How long can you hold on? If you can't hold on, you will revert to your old appearance, and then you will be caught red-handed!"

Su Yun sneered, "I will teach you the Great Unification Technique of the Foundation Establishment and Beginning Movement Realms..."

Just then, a voice filled with shock and anger suddenly sounded, "It's him! The Deputy Historian of Yuanshuo who beat us!"Su Yun turned around when he heard the words, only to see a scholar from the Sword Pavilion pointing at him and shouting, "It's this guy from Yuanshuo, very arrogant! He beat us on Lanling Street and took away our spiritual weapons and clothes. He even stripped Senior Sister's clothes and asked us to come again!"

As soon as these words came out, the Martial Saint Pavilion became lively again, with many scholars from the Sword Pavilion surrounding them, filled with righteous indignation.

The Martial Saint Pavilion was a highly ranked academy among the thirty-six academies of the Sword Pavilion. There were many scholars here who studied physical divine abilities and the mysteries of gods and demons.

Su Yun smiled and his mind moved slightly, sending Ying Ying out of the Spirit Realm and giving her to Zuo Songyan. He looked at the scholar and indeed recognized him, smiling and saying, "I remember you, you are... right, what's your name? I remember you didn't introduce yourself and were knocked out by me."

The scholar was filled with grief and indignation. "Listen carefully, my name is..."

Su Yun turned his head to look at the other scholars, surprised and delighted, and said with a smile, "Wait a moment, I see a few scholars I have beaten before."

Su Yun waved to the crowd, and those scholars were filled with anger and shouted, "Yuanshuo barbarian, dare to come to our Martial Saint Pavilion!"

"I came here for class," Su Yun explained with a smile.

"You won't be able to leave the Martial Saint Pavilion today!"

Someone couldn't contain their anger and shouted, "Either crawl out or be carried out!"

.

Su Yun didn't care.

Someone else shouted, "Yuanshuo barbarian, are you here to learn our Great Qin's supreme arts?"

Su Yun laughed it off.

At the same time, Ying Ying flew into Zuo Songyan's Spirit Realm and quickly said, "Old Piaozi, let me first teach you the unified techniques of Yulin and Beginning Movement. You must practice hard and not reveal any flaws!"

Zuo Songyan also stopped his playful and smiling face and became serious.

The crowd became even more grief-stricken. In the midst of the commotion, Cang Jiuhua pushed through the crowd and swept his gaze with majesty, instantly silencing the crowd.

Cang Jiuhua walked forward and bowed, saying, "Su Shao Shi, we meet again after parting in the Eastern Capital."

Su Yun returned the gesture and smiled, "Cang Xiong left a mess for me when he left the Eastern Capital. After cleaning it up, I had no choice but to travel across the sea to Yun Capital to see if there are any messes here. If there aren't any..."

Cang Jiuhua smiled and asked, "Then?"

Su Yun smiled and said, "Then I'll have to create a mess for Cang Xiong to clean up."

Cang Jiuhua burst into laughter, and Su Yun laughed as well.

Suddenly, Cang Jiuhua moved to the side, saying, "Let me introduce you, this is Senior Sister Yushuang Yun."

A young girl walked out from behind him, with captivating eyes and a tall figure. Her eyes were very charming, seemingly hiding a piece of blue amber.

"Senior Sister Yushuang Yun is from the Yun family in Yun Capital. She usually follows our Great Qin's national teacher to cultivate. The national teacher has already reached the Original Realm. Su Shao Shi should have seen the divine sword in the sky during your journey across the sea, right? One of them is the national teacher's sword."

Cang Jiuhua introduced, "Senior Sister Yushuang Yun excels in swordsmanship and has come to the Martial Saint Pavilion for cultivation. She participated in the selection of the Tower Master of the Tongtian Pavilion last year."

Su Yun nodded slightly and smiled, "So did she win?"

Yushuang Yun's gaze fell on Su Yun and said, "Two wins and one loss. I don't know how the Tongtian Pavilion selects its Tower Master. If it's based on the recognition of the elders, I don't recognize the Tower Master from overseas."

Su Yun smiled, "That's why I came overseas. Do you have to defeat the defeated subordinates of these pseudo Tower Masters to have the qualifications to compete with them?"

Yushuang Yun's pupils contracted and said lightly, "Don't leave after school."

Many scholars from the Sword Pavilion shouted, "You dare not leave!"

Su Yun laughed heartily, "No need to wait until after school, we can do it during class."

At this moment, the bell for class rang, and many scholars from the Sword Pavilion sat up straight. Yue Liuxi walked in from outside, and for a moment, the scholars were in an uproar, not knowing why the Saint of the Sword Pavilion had come to the Martial Saint Pavilion.

In recent years, the Saint of the Sword Pavilion and the Martial Saint were not on good terms, which was well known. Could it be that Yue Liuxi intended to come to the Martial Saint Pavilion to teach?

Jiang Zushi was also surprised. He hadn't spoken to Yue Liuxi for two years. Yue Liuxi's proactive approach was beyond his expectations.

Yue Liuxi stepped onto the stage and looked around. The Martial Saint Pavilion fell silent.

"Today, a new teacher has come to the Martial Saint Pavilion."

Yue Liuxi smiled and said, "The first class today will be taught by the new teacher. If you have any questions, feel free to ask him."

Su Yun was about to stand up, but Zuo Songyan, who was sitting behind him, looked anxious and grabbed his clothes, whispering, "The Little Book Monster taught me a technique, but there are some parts I don't understand and can't cultivate..."

Su Yun broke free from his grip, and Zuo Songyan quickly grabbed him again, lowering his voice, "I'm about to break through!"

"Then watch carefully how I do it!"

Su Yun forcefully broke free from his hand, stood up, and walked towards the podium.

Zuo Songyan looked dazed.

Su Yun stood on the platform, bowed to Yue Liuxi, and Yue Liuxi returned the gesture.

Su Yun suddenly turned around, facing the many scholars below the platform, and said loudly, "Today, I will teach you all a lesson!"

"Boom!"

His aura shook, and behind him, the seventy-two heavenly realms opened simultaneously, distorting the space of the Martial Saint Pavilion. The seventy-two heavenly realms rotated, and the violent heaven and earth aura surged!

Inside the seventy-two heavenly realms, various gods and demons revolved around them, some fierce and ferocious, some cruel and cunning, some sacred and solemn.

Then, with a loud crack, the space behind him split open, revealing a heavenly abyss, which was the Deep Abyss that the spiritual masters at the Beginning Movement realm had to open.

The Deep Abyss was bottomless, and on its walls, gods and demons walked and transformed.

"As the saying goes, actions speak louder than words. In the first class, let me demonstrate it."

Behind Su Yun, gods and demons danced, and suddenly, Xiang Liu's nine heads appeared, poking out from behind him, with a fierce and ferocious appearance. They all said in unison, "Come, let's practice!"

Down below, Zuo Songyan was staring blankly, while Ying Ying quietly said in his spirit realm, "Xiang Liu is somewhat lecherous, look how much Su Shizi has learned from him, and you haven't."
