Chapter 492 Dust and Sand (2/2)
A head with disheveled golden hair draped over the top of his shoulders. Even though he did not have an indomitable and imposing body, but the natural vigor that was revealed by him was enough for him to look at all beings disdainfully from the corner of his eyes. His profound authority scattered to every corner of Diqiu, like the diffusing rays of the sun.
He looked around and the man chillingly hummed, ”All of you come to the morning audience now.”
Yinglong slowly returned to Wangcheng. During this moment, every aristocrat in Dongcheng hurriedly tidy up their apparels, got onto their luxurious cloud carriages and headed for Wangcheng.
At this time, Shen Lian slowly opened his eyes in the school. As he recalled the incidence, the person who pulled out his sword and the owner of the giant hand could fight with him for a while after they collaborated. As for Yinglong that appeared in Wangcheng afterward and the one on its spine who was most probably Emperor Xia was truly powerful beyond comprehension.
Shen Lian had experienced Chen Beidou's Unrivalled Sword and Yanxu's destructive magic. Both of them were considered as the strongest rivals in his entire life. Nonetheless, with the two people's pure power combined, they would still be at a disadvantage compared to Emperor Xia even though Emperor Xia had not really shown hand.
There were still some figures who were similar to the owner of the demonic blade in Diqiu. With his ability, he could mostly cause some commotion in Diqiu. Even if from today onwards, his Primordial Spirit had fully recovered, he would definitely not be able to fight against the entire Diqiu by himself.
Nonetheless, the ones whom Shen Lian feared the most were still the combination of Emperor Xia and Yinglong. With the dragon and the man being one and the combination of Qi from their body, their combat ability would be catching up to the level of Taiyi state.
Just now, if he were to hesitate even just for a bit, and without the independent world in the school to cover his tracks, there was a chance that he would come to grips with Emperor Xia on his home field.
Even though he really looked forward to coming to grips with Emperor Xia who was a powerhouse that chose another cultivation pathway, but it should not have been now. Before that, he needed to have a deeper understanding towards the bloodline of the Xia Clan.
It was not success or failure that Shen Lian was after, it was the exploration towards Dao and other cultivation methods that he cared most, as this exploration would allow him to proceed further on his path of obtaining Dao.
The ivy outside shaded the window. Lei Jing returned.
She entered Zhiwei Home and she looked at Shen Lian with a mixed expression. She said, ”That giant hand just now was my grandfather's.”
Shen Lian asked, ”What about it?”
Lei Jing sighed, ”What are you up to exactly? I am going to tell my grandfather and uncle about your existence for real.”
Shen Lian stared keenly at her as he lightly replied, ”I understand, that is why it would be appropriate for you to forget everything that had happened just now.”
Shen Lian rarely messed around with other people's memories but there were times when he was required to do so.
If he was someone who was indecisive or had a tender heart for the fairer sex, he would already have passed away before this.
Luckily, he was not.
Under Shen Lian's faze, Lei Jing suddenly had a trance. She recalled the matter that had happened before.
A while ago, she saw a flying mountaintop that came flying to Diqiu and her grandfather made a move. Following that, even the great commander of Wangcheng, Ming Luo's demonic blade appeared. All these had also startled her uncle in the end.
Diqiu had not been in a buzzle for many years and she was unclear of the person driving the mountaintop.
If that person was placed within Qi cultivators, he would most probably be the best amongst them.
Her teacher, Shen Lian, was plucking the qin on the couch. The sound of qin was light and elegant, like the flowing spring in the quiet mountains.
The teacher was most likely not the person who was driving the mountain. This was because he had just woken up from his sleep. She was really tired because she had spent the whole night pondering about the internal respiration of Daoism before she was startled by the incident in the morning. The lack of sleep must have caused her state of mind to be uncertain.
Lei Jing had forgotten why she had gotten out from the school when the mountain was flying into Diqiu and also the part where green clouds were seen flying out from Shen Lian. In the deep corners of her mind, she subconsciously separated Shen Lian from the Qi cultivator that drove the mountaintop and voluntarily trying to figure out all kinds of reasons to convince herself that Shen Lian would not do anything to go against Xia Kingdom.
