Chapter 614 The Tenth on the Xuanhe Ranking, the Mysterious Elder Li!
Luo Cheng sheathed the Flame Jade Sword and changed his tone:

"Elder Shi Huang is absolutely right. We are all from the same sect. As long as Junior Brother Qi behaves himself, I will not hold it against him."

The other party was a Supreme Elder, a True Person level expert. If he really wanted to step in to protect Qi Feiyu, there was nothing he could do.

Compared to the five-star treasure, the Flame Jade Sword, Qi Feiyu's life is insignificant.

However, Luo Cheng's words were also ambiguous.

If Qi Feiyu knows his place in the future, that's fine. But if he doesn't and keeps courting death, then he can't blame Qi Feiyu for being ruthless.

Elder Shi Huang glanced at Luo Cheng, and a vortex of flame appeared behind him, about to suck him and Qi Feiyu into it.

"Shi Huang, are you really going to leave like this..." Elder Mingzong said in time.

Upon hearing this, Elder Shi Huang's lips twitched, and his expression turned somewhat unpleasant.

The Flame Jade Sword was given away anyway, since he couldn't use it. But the Thunder Flame Golden Crystal was extremely useful to him, and now he had no choice but to hand it over to someone else, who was none other than his mortal enemy, the Supreme Elder of the Ming Sect.

"Hmph! Mingzong, don't be so smug. Since you want to recruit them as disciples, we'll have another battle once they advance to the Four Extremes Secret Realm!"

With a cold snort, Elder Shi Huang waved his sleeve, and a stream of flames shot towards Elder Mingzong. He and Qi Feiyu disappeared into the vortex of flames.

boom!
The Supreme Elder of the Ming Sect grasped the Flowing Flame, which was the size of a fist and resembled a crystal. Flames and lightning intertwined within it, and the powerful and domineering fluctuations of Yuan Qi made him feel somewhat alarmed.

"Not bad!"

The Supreme Elder of Mingzong showed a look of joy. Winning against Lei Yan Jin Jing was secondary; what was rare was that he had managed to outmaneuver the Supreme Elder of Shi Huang and regain his pride.

dang dang...

Just as everyone was stunned, three chimes suddenly rang out from the inner gate square, their sound carrying far and wide.

This is a reminder that something major has happened within the inner circle.

As if struck by a thought, everyone turned to look at the Xuanhe Ranking in the inner gate square.

The enormous Xuanhe Ranking was now shining brightly, and Qi Feiyu's name, which was originally ranked tenth, had automatically moved to eleventh in the second row.

The vacant tenth place spot was marked with two bright and shining characters.

Luo Cheng!

Everyone was stunned by what they saw.

"Tenth on the Xuanhe Ranking, one of the top ten seed disciples!"

"Luo Cheng awakened a useless martial soul, and he's only been in the inner sect for a year, yet he's already become one of the top ten seed disciples! This is outrageous! It's unprecedented and will never be repeated!!"

“Look, all the elders are stunned.”

Everyone was deeply shocked when they saw Luo Cheng's name on the Xuanhe Ranking.

Before this battle, no one expected this outcome, given the vast difference in skill between the two.

Qi Feiyu, awakened a nine-star martial soul, one of the top ten seed disciples, and a disciple personally taught by the Supreme Elder, was so powerful and unstoppable.

In comparison, Luo Cheng, a newly promoted core disciple who had awakened a useless martial soul and was at the peak of the eighth level of the Awakening Meridian Realm, was as inconspicuous as a star next to the bright moon.

However, this once dim and dull star now bursts forth with a dazzling light like the sun, completely obscuring the bright moon!
Even though this happened right before their eyes, everyone still found it hard to believe, as if they were in a dream, and remained in shock for a long time.

"Is this the person Yun Mengli personally recommended...?"

High in the sky, Yuan Qingying stared at Luo Cheng, his brows slightly furrowed. His sharp gaze caused ripples to spread through the air.

Yuan Qianyu, standing to the side, clenched his fists tightly, his face contorted in a grimace: "Damn it, how could this piece of trash be so powerful!"

Yuan Qingying let out a slight breath and said, "Don't worry. His sharp edge and lack of restraint will only lead to his own destruction. Putting aside others, Jin Min will definitely not let him continue to live in this world."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Qianyu asked worriedly, "Can Jin Min defeat him?"

Yuan Qingying nodded: "The ranking of the top ten seed disciples is no joke. The difference in strength between each of them is enormous. Especially the top three, they are a huge dividing line."

"Jin Min has the support of the royal family and the entire Crown Prince Hall, and his foundation is extraordinary. He possesses unique skills, and the royal family's Seven Secret Techniques are enough to offset the effects of ninety percent of the sword intent's nascent form. Luo Cheng can easily defeat Qi Feiyu, but if he wants to compete with Jin Min, he is far from enough and will only be instantly killed."

"Hehe, if Jin Min knew Luo Cheng was so arrogant, even defeating Qi Feiyu and becoming one of the top ten seed disciples, he'd probably want to tear him to pieces immediately!" Yuan Qianyu chuckled, glancing at Luo Cheng on the arena, and whispered:

"Keep being arrogant, let's see how long you can stay arrogant!"

At that moment, a majestic voice echoed down from the sky.

"Luo Cheng, from this day forward, you will be my last disciple. I look forward to seeing you at my Thunder Peak!"

The one speaking was none other than the Supreme Elder of the Ming Sect.

"Yes! Master!"

Luo Cheng bowed with his hands clasped in greeting.

He would naturally not refuse the kindness of a senior elder.

Moreover, he had a good impression of the Supreme Elder of the Ming Sect, who was a supporter of Yun Mengli and had helped him several times.

Elder Mingzong nodded, his body crackling with lightning, and prepared to leave with Elder Qingkui.

"Huh!?"

Elder Qingkui suddenly paused, looking in surprise at the southwest sky.

"what happened?"

The Supreme Elder of Mingzong asked curiously.

"Look who's there."

The Supreme Elder Qingkui pointed to the southwest without making a sound.

There, an inconspicuous white cloud floated.

The Supreme Elder of the Ming Sect narrowed his eyes, lightning flashing in his pupils, and then said in surprise:
"Elder Li? She actually came too."

In the void behind the clouds, an old woman with a hunched back, white hair, and an extremely aged appearance stood. If the two had not reached the True Person Realm and possessed powerful soul power, capable of discerning truth from falsehood, it would have been difficult for them to discover each other's whereabouts.

Elder Qingkui was equally surprised: "This is the first time in the past hundred years that I have seen Senior Li leave Emerald Jade Peak! She seems to be sizing up Luo Cheng. Could it be that she came for Luo Cheng?"

Elder Qingkui noticed that Elder Li's gaze remained fixed on Luo Cheng, lost in thought.

Elder Mingzong shook his head: "Let's not try to guess what she's thinking."

Despite being a supreme elder, the Mingzong Supreme Elder spoke of Elder Li with utmost respect.

The origins of this Elder Li were so mysterious that even he knew nothing about them.

The Supreme Elder of Mingzong only remembered that when he first entered Xuanyuan Sect, the other party was already guarding Cuiyu Peak.

More than two hundred years have passed, and he has gone from being a disciple to becoming a Supreme Elder, while the other party still guards Jade Peak.

Seemingly sensing their attention, Elder Li was enveloped in a cloud of purple energy and vanished instantly.

"Let's go!"

The Supreme Elder of Mingzong did not delve into the matter. The other party was elusive and rarely seen. Apart from knowing that the other party's surname was Li, he knew nothing else about him.

Crack!

Transforming into a bolt of lightning, the Supreme Elder of the Ming Sect shot towards the depths of the inner sect.

Elder Qingkui gave Luo Cheng one last look.

She felt that Elder Li's gaze towards Luo Cheng just now was somewhat complicated, and slightly different from the lifeless Elder Li of the past...

"Perhaps it's just my imagination."

Shaking his head, Elder Qingkui took a step forward and disappeared from the spot like a shadow.
