C25 Stubborn confrontation
The battle had happened too fast for anyone to react.
Seeing that Zhao Feng was about to lose his life at the hands of Gao Zhi, a figure suddenly appeared in the sky and shouted, "Stop!"
The elderly man who was guarding the first level of Meridian appeared. With a wave of her long sleeve, she directly swept Zhao Feng away, escaping from Gao Zhi's attack range.
His body was like a fierce tiger, directly pouncing onto Zhao Feng's body. Both of his hands formed claws and fiercely clawed at Zhao Feng's body, with a ripping sound, the clothes in front of Zhao Feng's chest were torn apart, and under the ten slender lines of blood on his chest, his sternum was revealed.
"What guts, why aren't you stopping!"
The elderly man who was protecting the Meridian was furious and sent Gao Zhi flying with a sudden burst of energy.
Zhao Feng clenched his teeth in pain, he managed to sit up with great difficulty, and beads of perspiration trickled down his forehead. However, when he thought about how he was actually injured by a child, and a child whose cultivation level was much lower than his, he felt both angry and ashamed.
Seeing the newcomer, the disciples who were watching from all directions did not dare to say a single word. They just stood there quietly.
Gao Zhi moved his body, he twisted his neck and spat out a mouthful of blood. He then looked coldly at the old man, "You attacked me, give me a reason."
"Who do you think you are? Do I need to give you a reason? "
The elder protecting the Meridian raised her eyebrows and snorted.
"Give me a reason."
Gao Zhi took a big step towards the old man, and said with a low voice.
"You are merely a normal disciple, yet you dare to act so arrogantly towards me? Even your Master wouldn't dare to do this to me. "
The old man's face darkened as a cold glint flashed across his eyes.
"Give me a reason!"
Gao Zhi took another step forward with his imposing manner.
"Impudent!" If you leave now, I won't bother with you. "
The old man frowned, thinking about the crowd of Heaven Gate disciples around him, he forcefully suppressed his anger.
"Give me a reason!"
Gao Zhi bellowed, his small face tensed up as he looked at the white tiger on the dao diagram.
The old man was startled, then snorted coldly, walked to Zhao Feng's side and pulled him up, then turned and left.
"Give me a reason!"
It was still the same sentence. Gao Zhi clenched his fists tightly and spoke with an irrefutable tone. A faint aura of a Conqueror was being released, causing one's heart to palpitate.
The old man's heart trembled. He subconsciously said, "Disciples are forbidden from killing each other in the Heaven Gate. You just crossed the border."
After saying this, the old man was confused. What was going on with him? How could he be distracted by a child?
"Then what were you doing when he injured me?"
Gao Zhi raised his small face and stared coldly at the other party.
The old man's expression kept changing. Finally, he flicked his sleeves and said, "I'll find your master and tell him about this later. You better leave and reflect on it."
The surrounding disciples all shook their heads and sighed. Gao Zhi did not know the identity of the old man so they naturally knew something.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? "What happened?" A hurried voice came out from the crowd, after that, Wu Bupang and Liang Li squeezed into the crowd. When they saw Gao Zhi, they were startled, but when they saw Zhao Feng and the old man, their expressions changed slightly.
In next to no time, the two of them understood the gist of the matter from the disciples that were spectating from the side.
"Forget it, Xiao Zhi, let's go back first."
Liang Kui quickly walked to Gao Zhi's side and said in a low voice, "That old man is Zhao Feng's grandfather. Zhao Liangyi, we cannot afford to offend him."
The old man was powerful, so naturally, he had heard Liang Chi's words. He only coldly glanced at the two of them. In his heart, he believed that this time, the other party should have tactfully left.
"Leave his life behind for me. I will not care about the fact that you've injured me."
Gao Zhi pondered for a long time before speaking slowly. In his opinion, this was already a very magnanimous method. However, when everyone heard this, they all had the same thought. This kid was crazy!
At this point, everyone was ignoring the most important matter. That was, a cultivator of the first stage of Dao Accomplishment Realm was actually heavily injured, and could even kill a cultivator of Dao Resisting Realm Nine Heavens. This in itself represented a type of combat strength, an extreme talent in cultivation.
"How dare you!"
The old man was enraged and shouted, "You are not allowed to be so impudent in this Heaven Gate. You actually want to kill your fellow sect members? Today, I will teach you a lesson on behalf of your Master. "
The old man was furious. He grabbed Zhao Feng's left hand and struck out with his right hand, releasing a burst of berserk Dao Energy. Even though he did not use his full strength, his might was still not to be underestimated.
"Elder Zhao, what's the point of this?"
A scholarly middle-aged man appeared in front of Gao Zhi, and casually blocked Zhao Liangyi's attack. No one present could clearly see how he had appeared.
"Lu Xian?"
Zhao Liangyi squinted, and said coldly: "Is this the disciple you were teaching?"
"Not really."
The one who came was Lu Xian, and upon hearing that, he shook his head and laughed: "Although he is not my disciple, but he cannot be bullied by anyone else."
"Bullying? Are you saying that I bullied a child? "
Zhao Liangyi sneered, his tone was extremely unfriendly.
Lu Xian smiled, and said calmly: "Is that not the case?"
"Lu Xian, don't go overboard."
Zhao Liangyi's tone became deeper and deeper, his heart completely filled with anger. Today, he was first mocked by a kid of the first stage of Dao Accomplishment Realm, and now, he was being questioned and looked down upon by a junior. How could he not be angry?
"Wrong, Elder Zhao, you went too far."
Lu Xian was neither impatient nor anxious, his expression was still very calm without any ripples.
"Lu, how could you look down on my grandfather's identity? Even in terms of seniority, you must still address him as "Senior Master". "
Zhao Feng shouted in indignation.
"Rules are rules. You have already violated the rules when you were trying to kill your peers."
Lu Xian looked at him and said slowly. Although he had just appeared, he seemed to know everything.
Zhao Liangyi's expression changed, and he snorted: What do you want?
"Seeing that Xiao Zhi isn't heavily injured, this matter is over. "However."
Lu Xian gave a bland laugh, and then said: "As an elder, you actually attacked a disciple who had just entered the sect, going against teacher. Furthermore, he was indifferent to the fact that his family members bullied the new disciples. Moreover, after the incident had occurred, he deliberately defended them. This was against morality. As the Clan Elder of Meridian, you should just withdraw. "
"Haha, with just you?"
Zhao Liangyi was so angry that he laughed instead. First, his grandson lost to an ordinary kid in a high realm, yet now, he was also treated like this by a junior?
The most important thing was that the other side was insulting the new disciples one by one. She did not mention that Gao Zhi had been rude to him and almost killed his grandson.
"Yes, on my own."
Lu Xian nodded, and from his face, not a single trace of respect could be seen.
Gao Zhi stood quietly behind Lu Xian. From the looks of it, Lu Xian was neither humble nor arrogant. However, Gao Zhi could clearly feel a strong conviction from his body, that this belief originated from his own strength.
Zhao Liangyi's face turned ugly, but in the end, he snorted and pulled Zhao Feng, and immediately left.
A huge battle did not occur. However, he had let others feel that Lu Xian's strength was something that made even Zhao Liangyi feel inferior in front of him, and didn't dare to say anything.
"Hey!"
Gao Zhi was about to speak, but he was stopped by a smiling Lu Xian, and said softly: "Please let him go, this is still a Heaven Gate, do you really want to kill him?"
His voice was calm, but it contained an unquestionable tone.
Gao Zhi pondered for a moment, then said with furrowed brows: "But the killing intent he had towards me was real. The old man said, such a person cannot be let go."
Lu Xian laughed, and then patted Gao Zhi's shoulder, "There are always exceptions, and some things, it's not bad to take a step back."
"Then you didn't back down just now."
Gao Zhi blinked his eyes, his words shocked others.
"Because there's no need." Lu Xian was still smiling, but there was a hint of coldness in his smile, making people unable to help but believe it. If Zhao Liangyi did not retreat, he might really make his move.
Because he was strong and because of his strength, there was no need for him to retreat.
"Huh? I think I understand. "
Gao Zhi nodded his head seriously, he did not look like he was putting on an act, and instead said those words seriously.
"It's good that you understand." Lu Xian smiled and nodded.
"Oh yeah, Senior Brother, didn't you say you were going into closed door cultivation?" Why are you out now? " At that time, Lu Xian said that he would go into closed door cultivation for a month, only a few days had passed.
"Although I am in closed-door training, I am not in a deathtrap. There are some things that I have comprehended, so I don't need to go into seclusion. "
Lu Xian laughed, and upon hearing that, a part of the people were shocked. One had to know that those who cultivated went into seclusion would encounter a bottleneck. The reason why Lu Xian had to go into seclusion was naturally because he had encountered a cultivation bottleneck, and what he had heard in the past month was also a feeling that he needed a month to be able to comprehend.
However, it actually only took a few days. This level of talent was absolutely astonishing.
The other thing was, the way Gao Zhi called Lu Xian, caused a portion of it to pop out of their eyes. Such an unfamiliar disciple was actually of the same generation as Lu Xian? However, only some of the disciples who had seen Gao Zhi walking together with the Elder Tianlong began to understand what was going on.
"Alright, go train."
Lu Xian turned around and left calmly, as if nothing important had happened to him and he could treat anything calmly.
"Are you okay?"
When Lu Xian left and the surrounding disciples also began to disperse, Wu Bupang and Liang Kuang asked with deep concern.
"It's nothing, just a small wound." Gao Zhi grinned, not minding at all.
"Why are you fighting with Zhao Feng? That fellow is so strong, I wonder how many times stronger he is compared to our senior apprentice-brother. " Wu Bupang said puzzledly, but at the same time, he was confused, "Furthermore, with your strength, it seems like Eldest Brother isn't your opponent."
"What do you think?" Gao Zhi shrugged his shoulders and laughed helplessly.
"He can't be …" Liang Ke was suddenly surprised as he thought of something else.
"What do you think?"
Gao Zhi laughed, turned and left, but he had another thought in his mind: It's time to find a place to practice the array formations.
