chapter 5514: what is there to be proud of?
although they had no problem and actually welcomed li qiyeâs presence, they still became uncomfortable with his negative remark. moreover, he had no evidence or reason.
âi do believe that this is not a trivial claim.â an older disciple said.
âif you say that we have only learned the bare surface, tell us what true mastery should be like.â a lively disciple shouted.
âtell us!â others raised their voice. all eyes were on li qiye, awaiting a response.
qin baifengâs brows furrowed. she could control the crowd but this wasnât a favorable development for li qiye.
she turned toward the goddess who still had a smile on her face, seemingly in no rush to do anything.
as for shaoyun, he was glad to have the support of the crowd and became bolder: âif you canât give us a reasonable answer, we will take your words as malicious insults and potentially a treacherous scheme, punishable ranging from kicking you out or even death!â
âsenior brother.â the goddessâ smile disappeared after seeing his aggression.
mu shaoyun no longer cared for the only thing on his mind was to remove li qiye from the valley. with that done, he could easily crush the guy like an ant.
he arched his chest and said: âjunior sister, am i wrong here? he came to our home and spewed insults, just removing him is already merciful enough.â
her expression turned to anger after her words fell upon deaf ears.
âso you take pride in your accomplishment with the scripture?â li qiye smiled.
âi believe i have its essence within my grasp. if you are capable, then give me a pointer or two, but if you canât articulate anything insightful, then punishments are justified.â shaoyun said, wanting to get rid of this potential threat.
âessence is certainly the wrong word here.â li qiye smirked.
the crowd members found his statement offensive. after all, mu shaoyun could be the third strongest cultivator in the valley. they believed that he had a strong grasp of the scripture, only losing to their senior sisters.
âsenior brother, show him your mastery!â one disciple shouted.n-(0velb1n
âright, broaden his horizon and make him stop thinking that weâre all incapable!â another joined in.
their support emboldened him, causing him to challenge: âletâs see what you can do then. you can only blame yourself if you fail to back up your claim.â
âgo for it.â li qiye smiled.
âvery well, activate!â he roared and became resplendent.
rays of light exuded along with auspicious energy, culminating in the image of a boundless sunset.
this was a world brimming with energy, capable of crushing anyone standing too close to him.
âbuzz.â runes manifested into reality and seemed powerful enough to lift the heaven. they connected and turned into thick dao laws resembling heavenly waterfalls with a red glow coiling downward.
sunset glow goddess and qin baifeng used their grand dao power to prevent anyone else from being suppressed.
âincredible, itâs taking on the form of an independent world, thatâs grand completion, right?â one disciple shouted.
âitâs more than just grand completion.â a senior disciple said: âfirst brother is a dragon lord with perfect mastery over the scripture. this is as good as it gets, enough to surpass the previous generation.â
all in all, everyone had nothing but praise for his accomplishment.
âwhat do you have to say now, brat?!â shaoyun shouted at li qiye.
the crowd thought that his technique was impeccable. it would be impossible to point out a flaw.
âthereâs nothing to be proud of, you donât even understand where you stand.â li qiye shook his head after one glance at the visual phenomenon.
âyou speak boldly but iâm still waiting to hear an actual response. otherwise, i will end your dog life as punishment for insulting our sect!â the furious shaoyun bellowed.
âcanât he see that this is a perfect manifestation of the scripture?â one disciple said.
âright, thereâs no flaw to speak of.â another agreed.
âyoung noble, please guide us away from ignorance.â the goddess, on the other hand, showed no sign of doubt.
qin baifeng remained curious, wondering if li qiye could actually spot any flaw in their scripture itself, not this manifestation from shaoyun.
