Chapter 427: I am Definitely Not Mad Southern Ye’s Match!

Dragon Tiger Mountain!

It was where Chinese Taoism originated from, and it was named one of the four sacred mountains of Taoism!

It was said that the patriarch of Dragon Tiger Mountain, Zhang Daoling, who founded the sect, had refined the Nine-day Divine Pill on Yunjin Mountain. It took three years to be completed. There was a dragon-tiger phenomenon in the sky the day when the medicinal pill was refined. Zhang Daoling had ascended into the sky after consuming the medicinal pill, so the descendants then changed the name of Yunjin Mountain to Dragon Tiger Mountain.

Meanwhile, Zhang Daoling became a Celestial Master.

The Dragon Tiger Mountain had been passed down since the end of the Han dynasty. It had been 2,000 years. The sect leaders had always been someone with the family name Zhang. The Dragon Tiger Mountain remained standing tall even after Maoshan and Laoshan came in.

One could determine its status in the spell world judging by that.

The crowd that was initially noisy quieted down after they heard that Celestial Master Zhang from Dragon Tiger Mountain had arrived. All of them could not help but turn their heads to look.

A high-spirited old man with white hair wearing a blue Taoist robe walked in slowly while holding a fly-whisk. He looked like an immortal. Compared to Master Xiegu’s cool appearance, the old man seemed low-profiled.

Although that was the case, the people dared not underestimate him. They let out a path by instinct with dense admiration on their faces, including Yuan Qitai and the rest.

After all, he was Dragon Tiger Mountain’s sect leader of the generation. He was also the Spell Association’s president, Zhang Kedi, who had the Taoist name Xuanqing. That was how he got his name Zhang Xuanqing. He ruled Dragon Tiger Mountain, as well all Spell Masters in the China spell world!

Due to his extraordinary methods and honorable status, together with Hong Kong’s Southern Sect leader, Shen Tiannan, they were known as the powerhouses who were closest to Origin Energy. He was the legend of the spell world!

“Greetings, Celestial Master Zhang!”

Everyone bowed sincerely when Zhang Xuanqing got closer. They greeted him so loudly as if there was a tsunami.

Zhang Xuanqing nodded lightly and walked 243 steps on his own. Eventually, he stopped when he arrived at the gigantic cow-headed Shennong Yan Emperor sculpture at the heaven altar. He lifted his eyes to look at the crowd and said, “Isn’t Shen Tiannan here yet?”

“Celestial Master, we haven’t seen Shen Tiannan yet!” Master Xiegu, who was in the crowd, smirked.

“Forget it. We’ll start the convention since he’s late!” Zhang Xuanqing shook his head lightly and said, “I hereby announce that the Longmen Convention will officially begin. Those who won the first three places will come into my Dragon Tiger Mountain to visit the Scripture Pavilion. You’re welcome to access all of the books.”

The people could not help but feel excited, and they began breathing heavily. As an ancient sect that had been passed down for 2,000 years, Dragon Tiger Mountain must have many books. Their cultivation would have a significant improvement if they managed to read the books.

Zhang Xuanqing spoke again in the next second, “I believe all of you are aware of the rules. Only sparring is allowed. No killing is permitted. If anyone dares to go against that, don’t blame me for not showing mercy!”

The people said in unison, “We understand, Celestial Master!”

After their voices faded, Master Xiegu leaped onto the heaven altar first and said in a condescending manner, “I, Xiegu, would think that I rank No. 1 in Tiannan when it comes to spelling. Is there anyone who’s willing to spar with me?”

Many of them, who had been excited to go, froze after hearing what he said. The burning desire within them dimmed, and they had fear written all over their faces.

Xiegu had an Illuminating God cultivation base at the very least. Would it not be a joke for anyone to fight an Illuminating God powerhouse like him?

Many were secretly criticizing Master Xiegu for being so shameless. ‘Shouldn’t an expert like you only show off at the end?’

However, there was someone who was fearless of him. An old man from the Wu family of Lingnan smirked and said, “Xiegu, what great feat have you accomplished that you dare to call yourself No. 1 in Tiannan?”

“What, Wu Yan? If it’s not me, do you think you’re No. 1?” Master Xiegu’s smile thined and he retorted with an eerie grin.

“Unlike you, I know my limitations!” Wu Yan chuckled. “However, I know there’s someone in Tiannan who is more powerful than you in spells. You can’t catch up with him even if you’re riding on a horse.”

Many people secretly laughed as they watched both of them arguing. They looked like they were watching a show. After all, they knew that the Wu family from Lingnan and Master Xiegu of Southern Xinjiang hated each other.

“I’d like to know who that is,” Master Xiegu said while smiling instead of being mad.

Wu Yan took a deep breath and said, “You must’ve forgotten about Master Ye, who can control lightning. He appeared in Lin City, Tiannan earlier!”

At first, the people were stunned, then they snapped back to their senses. They could not help but secretly inhale sharply. Clearly, they had heard of Master Ye before.

“You must be talking about Mad Southern Ye who ranks No. 1 on the Heaven Leaderboard!” Master Xiegu’s expression changed slightly and he said in slight fear, “Mad Southern Ye is an ancient martial artist. I admit that he has a powerful ability. He deserves to be China’s No. 1 with his cultivation base as an ancient martial artist, but I don’t think he’s a Spell Master!”

Many people had heard that Mad Southern Ye was the same Master Ye who could control lightning.

He glanced at the people as he thought to this point. Then, he proceeded to speak, “Guys, think about it. We’ve heard of ancient martial artists and Spell Masters since the beginning of time. When have we ever heard of a double cultivator? To me, it was purely a rumor to say that Mad Southern Ye can control lightning!”

Everyone nodded by instinct, agreeing with what he said, including Zhang Xuanqing from Dragon Tiger Mountain.

Indeed, the path of cultivation was difficult. It was as hard as reaching the sky no matter whether it was ancient martial arts or cultivating. Regular people could not comprehend one of them throughout their entire life, let alone being a double cultivator.

As Master Xiegu glanced coldly at Wu Yan, he could not help but laugh out loud. “Wu Yan, I’ll let you know that I can suppress Mad Southern Ye with the back of my hand if he dares to compete in spells with me!”

Wu Yan was speechless, and he could only scoff.

He had tried to attack Master Xiegu using Mad Southern Ye’s name earlier because he hated him. In reality, even he did not believe that Mad Southern Ye was a genius who cultivated both paths. After all, what Master Xiegu said was right.

Among the crowd, Yu Lian could not help but ask Yuan Qitai as she watched the duo fighting, “Master Yuan, who exactly is this Mad Southern Ye? Why does everyone have such a big reaction?”

“Yeah, who is he?” Zhizhi was curious too.

Deng Chan said to them in disdain before Yuan Qitai could speak, “You guys aren’t from the spell world or ancient martial arts world. You guys won’t understand even if we told you.”

“How would we understand if you don’t tell us?” Yu Lian argued.

Yuan Qitai said with fear on his face after noticing that they were going to fight, “You guys only need to know that Mad Southern Ye is the genius that’s hard to come by in China. It’s not an exaggeration to call him the No. 1 in China’s ancient martial world.”

“Master Yuan, are you his match then?” Yu Lian’s eyes lit up, and she looked like a busybody. After experiencing what happened earlier, she had a new perspective of the world. She realized that there were many extraordinary people in this world. Since this Mad Southern Ye was named No. 1 of China’s ancient martial arts world, he must be powerful!

Yuan Qitai shook his head lightly facing her question. He was in between tears and laughter. “How would I be his match? I wouldn’t dare to fight such a man!”

“Even you aren’t his match?” Yu Lian exclaimed as shock filled her beautiful eyes. One must know that she had witnessed Yuan Qitai’s technique earlier. It was not an exaggeration to describe him as a god. However, this Mad Southern Ye was even more powerful than he was!

“Hmph!” Deng Chan said in arrogance, “Master, Mad Southern Ye is from the ancient martial arts world and you’re from the spell world. How can you compare it with him? Master Xiegu was right. If Mad Southern Ye dares to compare spells with you, he mustn’t be your match!”

“You silly girl!” Yuan Qitai said with a stern expression, “No matter whether it’s the ancient martial arts world or the spell world, we’re the same after all. Our goal is to break through the shackles of our bodies to become more powerful. If we were to fight your master, I’m definitely not Mad Southern Ye’s match!”

Deng Chan fell into silence.

Yu Lian blinked and said softly, “Mad Southern Ye, Mad Southern. The name alone is meant to be a hero. It’s no wonder that he’s No. 1 in the ancient martial arts world!”

She noticed that Yu Lei was absent-minded when she was thinking to herself. He seemed to be in deep thought, so she could not help but pat his shoulder. “What are you thinking about, brother?”

“I’m thinking about Sir Ye. If I had managed to grab him earlier, he might not have…” Yu Lei lamented in regret.

“Why are you talking about him again?” Yu Lian’s expression turned grim. “I’ve told you that he’s dead. His death has nothing to do with us. Since you have so much time on your hands, you should learn about the powerhouses of the world such as Mad Southern Ye!”
