Chapter 532: Chapter 518 Lin Feng

The status within Taiyi Holy Palace is strictly hierarchical, and whether one is an Elder or a Disciple, they are ranked according to their strength—the stronger the ability, the higher their status in the Holy Palace.

And among the Disciples, those from the Main Hall undoubtedly have the highest status.

They possess frightening aptitude and even more terrifying strength. Apart from the Palace Master of the Holy Palace, they dismiss the Emperor Realm powerhouses of the Four Main Halls with contempt.

This is determined by their talent, as they have a great chance to break through to the Emperor Realm, easily and simply surpassing the Emperor Realm Elders of the Four Main Halls.

Moreover, the devilish disciples of the Main Hall, even while in the King Martial Realm, can stand equal to the Emperor Realm Elders and even defeat them, creating an immortal legend.

For example, the once number one fiend of the Main Hall, a person of extraordinary influence, known as a genius of Taiyi Holy Palace that comes only once in a hundred years - Jun Shitian!

At the moment, within the Taiyi Holy Palace, a wretched figure was speeding through the air.

If Xiao Ye were here, he would definitely recognize that this figure was the outstanding disciple of the Xuanzi Hall, Fan Li!

"Xiao Ye, you made me lose face in front of the disciples and Elders of the Four Main Halls. I will make sure you suffer for this!" Fan Li clenched his fists tightly, his eyes flashing with intense hatred.

Just thinking about being defeated by Xiao Ye in front of so many people with a single move, his anger became uncontrollable.

Fuelled by the grievances accumulated in the other two assessments in Earth Hall, his hatred for Xiao Ye reached its peak, which is why he left upon obtaining the qualification to enter Earth Hall and flew towards the depths of Taiyi Holy Palace.

His goal was simple: he wanted Xiao Ye to die a gruesome death!

With all ten Law Enforcement Elders of Earth Hall favoring Xiao Ye, he had to seek help from someone who could disregard the Earth Hall Elders.

"Hmph, Xiao Ye, for having offended me, you will surely pay a painful price!" After a quarter of an hour, Fan Li suddenly stopped his movement, looked up at a palace floating above Heaven, and revealed a cold smile on his face.

Swish!

Afterward, Fan Li stomped the ground and, like an arrow released from the string, he flew towards the palace floating above Heaven.

Boom!

Fan Li formed his hands into a Seal Technique, and then the palace gates opened with a sound, evidently, he was permitted by the owner of the palace.

Inside, the palace seemed empty and not much was placed there, but the decoration was incredibly refined, many times more exquisite than the living quarters of the disciples of Earth Hall, showcasing the owner’s status, naturally revered as well.

After stepping into the palace, Fan Li did not even dare to breathe loudly, let alone look around.

"Subordinate Fan Li, greets Senior Brother Lin." After entering, Fan Li immediately knelt down on one knee with a face full of respect and spoke with cupped hands.

In the very center of this palace, there sat a figure in a grey robe, long hair as white as snow, with a tall and lean stature, sitting with his back to him.

This person did not emit any power fluctuations, but just casually sitting there, he brought a tremendous sense of oppression to Fan Li, almost to the point of suffocation.

"Hmm, how did it go with the task?" At this time, the figure sitting with his back to Fan Li spoke.

Though his words seemed light and breezy, they caused Fan Li’s expression to stiffen. Then, suppressing the fear in his heart, he bowed to the figure and said, "I’m sorry, Senior Brother Lin, I have let you down."

"That Xiao Ye is too monstrous. In the assessments of Earth Hall, he was always a step ahead of me, and I even lost to him in the final strength competition."

"So about that Ferocious Beast that Senior Brother Lin wanted. I’m afraid I’m unable to help you with that."

Fan Li said with a bitter smile on his face, not offering much in the way of explanation, because failure was failure after all. He came here seeking an opportunity for revenge.

"Oh?" A surprised voice emanated from the shadowy figure, "It seems that the new disciple Xiao Ye is indeed not ordinary, to have beaten you within about a year of entry."

"But let it be, after all, it’s just a Ferocious Beast with Emperor Vein, it’s nothing serious. The Red Robed Gentlemen revealed such a thirst for it; it’s truly embarrassing for us, the Main Hall Disciples."

What, let it be?

Hearing the other party’s words, Fan Li’s eyes widened in disbelief.

During the assessment in Earth Hall, he deliberately approached Xiao Ye and got close to him, following the instruction of that devilish disciple surnamed Lin, intending to use a gentler method to take Little White from Xiao Ye.

But now, the tone of the other party clearly showed that he didn’t value Little White, so why send him to get close? Could it be that there was some sort of grudge between him and Xiao Ye?

For a moment, all sorts of thoughts and guesses arose in Fan Li’s mind.

"Heh heh..." As if sensing Fan Li’s confusion, the shadowy figure suddenly chuckled, the laughter filled with an air of arrogance.

"I, Lin Feng, why would I care about a mere Ferocious Beast with Emperor Vein?"

"Fan Li, I see that you still have some use to me, so I might as well tell you. The reason I asked you to approach Xiao Ye is that he intrigued me and I merely wanted to probe him."

"Probe? Intrigued?" Upon hearing this, Fan Li grew even more puzzled.

A noble Devilish Disciple of the Main Hall, why would he be interested in a new disciple?

Even though he had to admit that Xiao Ye’s talents were impressive, they certainly hadn’t reached the level to pique the interest of the devilish figure before him.

"Do you find it odd?" The Devilish Disciple, still with his back to Fan Li, asked in a calm voice.

Fan Li unconsciously nodded.

"Because he... once killed an Avatar of my brother, Lin Feng!" The Devilish Disciple spoke slowly, emphasizing each word.

Boom!

Fan Li’s expression changed dramatically upon hearing this statement. There was only one person in the entire Taiyi Palace who could be referred to as a brother by Lin Feng and have such a status.

Jun Shitian!

That once-in-a-century peerless genius of Taiyi Palace, Jun Shitian!

"Alright, that’s all I can tell you for now. Go back to Earth Hall and help me keep an eye on this disciple. I will strike at the right moment to avenge my brother’s destroyed Avatar," said the Devilish Disciple coldly.

"Yes... Yes!" Those words forcefully pulled Fan Li back to reality, his head buzzing as he exited the palace.

"So many years have passed, and there is news of Jun Shitian again, and he even has a connection to Senior Brother Lin Feng. Could it be that, before long, Jun Shitian will return to the Taiyi Palace?" The shock was evident on Fan Li’s face.

Although Jun Shitian once broke the palace rules and was forcibly expelled by the Holy Palace Master, those with clear sight knew that the Holy Palace Master valued talent and did not rescind the latter’s disciple status.

So strictly speaking, Jun Shitian was still a disciple of the Holy Palace!

"Xiao Ye, you actually dared to provoke Jun Shitian, and together with Senior Brother Lin Feng, you are definitely doomed this time. In the entire Holy Palace, no one can save you!" A cold smile spread across Fan Li’s face as he left and hurried towards the Earth Hall area.
