Chapter 60: Not a Single Worthy Opponent!

 

Observing the Divine Clarity Avatar!

The avatar behind Ye Tianming was completely dark gold in color, formed from countless ‘dark laws’, emitting a terrifying aura of authority.

This avatar represents the dark side of the Divine Clarity Law!

And in today’s world, unlawful matters are endless, which means that ‘dark laws’ are endless, and with ‘dark laws’ being endless, this avatar of his has no upper limit, unless there are no more unlawful matters discovered in the world.

Fu Cang looked at the Divine Clarity Avatar in silence.

She realized that she had still underestimated this man.

A night passed.

The next day.

Li Zheng and Gu Qi arrived at the Celestial Treasure Pavilion. When they saw Ye Tianming, they were somewhat surprised. Li Zheng looked Ye Tianming over and said with surprise: “Brother Ye, you seem different somehow.”

Ye Tianming smiled: “How am I different?”

Li Zheng smiled: “I can’t quite put my finger on it, but you just feel a bit different.”

Gu Qi said: “You’ve become more handsome.”

“Haha!”

All three of them laughed.

On the way, Ye Tianming asked, “Brother Li, where are we going now?”

Li Zheng said: “The National Scholar Banquet.”

Ye Tianming was curious, “National Scholar Banquet?”

Li Zheng nodded, “It’s hosted by the Young Master’s think tank, the White Robe Pavilion, to invite young scholars from various states. The purpose is to prepare for tomorrow’s Divine Clarity Debate.”

Ye Tianming asked: “Will An Yan be there?”

Li Zheng smiled: “Of course. This Brother An of yours now holds a position in the White Robe Pavilion second only to the Commoner Minister, Bai Ci.”

Ye Tianming frowned slightly, “Bai Ci?”

Gu Qi suddenly said: “Brother Ye may not know, this Bai Ci is a legendary figure. He entered the Hanlin Academy at nine years old, becoming the youngest scholar in the academy’s history. In less than a year, when he was ten, he became a Grand Scholar of the Hanlin Academy. By then, no one in the entire Hanlin Academy could teach him anymore. Just when everyone thought he would enter the Outer Cabinet, he was suddenly assigned to the Young Master’s side, becoming the Young Master’s study companion.”

Li Zheng nodded slightly, “Indeed a legendary figure. When the Young Master was thirteen, they founded the White Robe Pavilion together. The White Robe Pavilion is filled with the most talented young scholars from the Divine Clarity Academy. They assist the Young Master, and although they have no real power, they can influence the Inner Cabinet’s decisions. Plus, he comes from a very, very ordinary family, so this Bai Ci is known to the world as the Commoner Prime Minister.”

Ye Tianming asked: “Will he personally participate this time?”

Li Zheng replied: “We don’t know yet, we only know that An Yan will personally participate.”

An Yan!

Ye Tianming smiled, it had been a long time indeed.

Soon, they arrived at the Celestial Treasure Pavilion. After entering the hall, they came to a teleportation array where an old man immediately approached them, “Young Master Li, Young Master Gu, I’m sorry, but this Young Master Ye cannot enter.”

Upon hearing this, Li Zheng’s expression instantly changed, while Gu Qi jumped up, “Damn it, what the hell did you just say?”

The old man dared not offend the two, and immediately said respectfully: “Young Masters, I just received news that this Young Master Ye is suspected of killing members of the Celestial Treasure Pavilion. He has now been blacklisted by our Pavilion and is not allowed to enter any Celestial Treasure Pavilion venues.”

Li Zheng stared at the old man, “Is the Xiao family behind this?”

The old man smiled bitterly, “Young Master Li, I’m just a doorkeeper.”

Gu Qi suddenly raged: “Damn the Xiao family’s ancestors! Damn it, playing such dirty tricks!”

The old man glanced at Gu Qi, then lowered his head without speaking.

Li Zheng’s face was as dark as water.

Ye Tianming suddenly smiled: “Brother Li, Brother Gu, you two go ahead. Senior Sister and I will go look around elsewhere.”

“No way!”

Gu Qi rolled up his sleeves, “Brother Ye, don’t leave yet. What nonsense is this? I don’t believe the Xiao family can cover the sky with one hand. Brother Li, call for backup, get all our brothers here. Today we’re going to fight the Xiao family.”

Li Zheng didn’t waste words and immediately crushed a sound transmission talisman. In less than a quarter hour, dozens of people rushed in from outside.

Among these dozens of people, Ye Tianming saw a familiar face—it was Pei Buleng, the woman from the Sword Sect he had met before.

She was looking at him too, and nodded as a greeting.

Ye Tianming nodded back.

A fat man suddenly stepped forward, “Brother Li, Brother Gu, I hear the Xiao family is being very arrogant, bullying people with their power?”

Beside Ye Tianming, Gu Qi introduced: “This fat guy is from the Tuoba family, called Tuoba Fei (Fat).”

Ye Tianming: “……”

Tuoba Fei walked over with large strides, his gaze immediately falling on Ye Tianming, “You’re Ye Tianming?”

Ye Tianming nodded, “Brother Fei, pleased to meet you.”

Tuoba Fei stared at Ye Tianming, “My name is Tuoba Fei (Bandit), not Tuoba Fei (Fat).”

Ye Tianming turned to look at Gu Qi in shock. Damn, brother, you set me up.

Gu Qi burst into laughter, “It’s all the same. Ah Fei, I heard your Tuoba family has strong connections in the Celestial Treasure Pavilion. Come help solve this problem. The Xiao family is being too damn inhuman, not only bullying people with their power but also using their connections to blacklist someone. It’s absolutely disgraceful.”

He was clearly speaking loudly on purpose, so that everyone in the hall could hear clearly.

“Who’s gossiping behind our backs?”

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from not far away.

Everyone turned to look. In the distance, a group of people walked over, led by a man in a cyan robe.

“Well, well!”

Gu Qi suddenly smiled, “So it’s Xiao Ping from the Xiao family! Let me tell you, I’m not gossiping behind your back. I’m cursing your Xiao family to your face. Your Xiao family is nothing but trash. Damn your mother! Damn all your mothers!”

Everyone: “……”

The man named Xiao Ping’s face instantly became ferocious, “Gu Qi, this isn’t your Farshore Civilization!”

Gu Qi pointed at Xiao Ping, “Don’t change the subject with me. I just want to damn your mother.”

How could Xiao Ping endure this? He was about to make a move, but just then, a man beside him suddenly stopped him. That man smiled and said: “So this is the quality of the Farshore Civilization?”

Gu Qi looked at that man, “I damn your mother too!”

Everyone: “……”

That man stared at Gu Qi, “I heard your ancestor was once a scholar, a true great Confucian. I never expected his descendant to be so crude and unbearable. I disdain to speak with you.”

Gu Qi smiled: “The Xiao family’s actions are known to all. To snatch my Brother Ye’s special recruitment spot, they resorted to forceful seizure and even threatened Brother Ye’s family. They can stoop to such despicable means, yet they fear being cursed?”

The man didn’t directly respond to this question, but changed the subject, “The Celestial Treasure Pavilion not allowing this Ye Tianming to enter has nothing to do with the Xiao family. Gu Qi, isn’t your Gu family very powerful? Why don’t you go fight the Celestial Treasure Pavilion!”

Gu Qi said: “Who doesn’t know the Xiao family is pulling strings behind the scenes? Chai Yun, don’t play these games with me. You just want to be the Xiao family’s dog, right? Let me tell you, if you want to be a dog, you should find a good master, understand? The Xiao family is such a stupid family, you go to them to be your master, do you have a brain? Honestly, you’d be better off being my dog. I have much more class than the Xiao family.”

Everyone: “……”

The man named Chai Yun’s face immediately darkened. Just as he was about to speak, Tuoba Fei suddenly stepped forward, “Alright, alright, all this arguing is meaningless. We’re all civilized people, we don’t just talk trash, let’s just have a damn fight!”

“Fine!”

Xiao Ping sneered, “I really want to see what the Farshore Civilization…”

As he spoke, he suddenly changed his tone and turned to look at Ye Tianming, “Isn’t this the so-called Ye Tianming with the potential of a Great Emperor? Tsk tsk, I really want to see…”

Just then, his pupils suddenly contracted as he saw Fu Cang had somehow already rushed in front of him.

Bang!

Before Xiao Ping could react, his head was directly blown apart by a punch, splattering blood everywhere.

Fu Cang shook her hand, her eyebrows furrowing, “What garbage creature, so weak yet talks so much, shameless.”

Everyone: “……”

Fu Cang looked at the crowd, “Not a single one worth fighting.”

Everyone: “……”

Ye Tianming pulled at Fu Cang’s sleeve, whispering: “Senior Sister, we have our own people here.”

Fu Cang looked at him, “I didn’t say anything untrue.”

Ye Tianming: “……”

Everyone: “……”
