crophone and started to sing. As the beautiful melody spread, she slowly turned her body. When they saw her delicate face, the audience who were taking pictures were instantly struck dumb, falling sil...Thinking about this, Zheng Yiheng followed the direction of Gu Yu's finger and looked over. When he saw the large characters on Ye Bufan and the others' chests, a disdainful glint flashed in his eyes.

His uncle is the Grand Elder of the Tianluo State Lingxiao Academy branch. He naturally knows everything that happened at the Lingxiao Academy in the Tiānfēng Empire.

A bottom-ranked empire, a branch that was almost completely destroyed, with only Nascent Soul cultivators... how could he, this high and mighty second young master, possibly take them seriously.

At the same time, there was also a trace of doubt in his heart. With the cultivation of someone like Gu Yu, how could they possibly be robbed by cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage

But now there's no time for that, what matters is getting the flying apparatus into my hands.

Zheng Yiheng lifted his chin high, looking down at Ye Bufan and the others with his nose in the air, and asked, "Are you from Lingxiao Academy of the Tianfeng Empire"

"That's right!" Jiang Fangzhou puffed out his chest and pointed at Ye Bufan, "This is our dean!"

He now idolized Brother Ye to an extreme, while Zheng Yiheng simply snorted disdainfully.

It seems that Lingxiao Academy has truly fallen to its lowest point. Not only are they all at the Nascent Soul stage, but they even let such a low-cultivation young man be the headmaster.

As a student of the Lingxiao Academy, to snatch someone else's belongings for no reason is no different from a bandit.

Zheng Yiheng, brimming with confidence and arrogance, bellowed, "I order you to immediately surrender the stolen goods, and that flying artifact as well. Place it in my possession for safekeeping."

Seeing this, Gu Yu's face broke into a cunning smile. He had mentioned the existence of flying spirit artifacts just now with two purposes in mind.

If I didn't say it like this, Zheng Yiheng might not necessarily help me.

Secondly, it was to cause some trouble for Ye Bufan and the others. Even if he couldn't obtain that flying spirit artifact himself, he wouldn't allow them to continue possessing it.

Given Zheng Yiheng's greed and ambition, he will surely find a way to get the flying device for himself.

It seems to be working out as planned, my two-birds-with-one-stone strategy has succeeded.

Ye Bufan looked up at the self-righteous guy in front of him, "You command me Who do you think you are"

"You..."

Zheng Yiheng was about to explode, but then he thought that the other party didn't know his identity yet, so he suppressed his anger.

"Let me introduce myself. I'm Lingxiao from the Lingxiao Academy of the Haofeng Empire, and I'm the captain for this newcomer ranking match."

My father is the dean of the academy, and my uncle is the Great Elder of the Tianluo State Lingxiao Branch.

Having finished speaking, he adopted a proud expression once more. In his mind, the other party would immediately bow down and flatter him upon learning his identity, after all, his status and background were unparalleled in Lingxiao Academy.

"I said, how amazing. Turns out he's the dean's son and the great elder's nephew."

Ye Bufan sneered, he didn't have a good impression of Lingxiao Academy in his heart.

Judging from Zheng Yihe's appearance, the dean and the elder aren't doing much better either.

But these he no longer cared about. When he learned that the Tianluo Prefecture branch of Lingxiao Academy had abandoned those in need back then, he had already drawn a line in the sand with them in his heart.

Zheng Yiheng didn't notice the sarcasm in the other person's smile and said arrogantly, "Now you know who I am, quickly return the things to me."

Ye Bufan sneered and said, "If I don't retaliate, how will it be"

"Not returning"

Zheng Yiheng didn't expect the other party to know his identity and still have this attitude. A surge of anger rose in his heart.

"Well, then I'll represent the Lingxiao Academy and cleanse this place!"

He spoke with confidence, believing himself to be the most outstanding martial arts prodigy of his generation. In his eyes, this guy in front of him was no match for him whatsoever.

After he spoke, the aura of a late-stage Void Refinement expert erupted suddenly.

But just then, his heart suddenly skipped a beat, and a sense of overwhelming crisis washed over him.

Zheng Yihe looked up and saw that the Tiebei Xiaotian Beast, which had been circling above his head, suddenly fell from the sky for some unknown reason.

This startled him. Although the Iron-backed Howling Sky Beast was only a third-order monster, its attack power wasn't strong.

But this guy is way too big, almost like a small airplane. It weighs dozens of tons.

Adding to that, falling from such a great height directly, the immense impact was no less than a full-strength strike from a Void Refinement Realm expert. It was far beyond what he could withstand.

The incident happened so suddenly that he didn't have time to think, and instinctively prepared to dodge. But for some reason, a tremendous force suddenly struck him, immobilizing him right where he was.

Although the binding force wasn't very strong and only lasted for a second or two, he managed to break free from it.

But this time was simply too dire, in just a couple of seconds, the gigantic Iron-backed Howling Beast had already descended from the sky. There was no time to dodge at this point.

With a deafening roar, the imposing form of the Tiebei Xiaotian Beast slammed into the ground like a mountain, creating a pit a meter deep.

While Zheng Yiheng was even more pitiful, being smashed directly into the bottom of the pit, his entire body was embedded in the ground.

Everyone present was stunned, especially Gu Yu and the people from the Hao Feng Empire. They all stared in surprise, their mouths agape. No one had expected the usually steadfast Ironback Howling Sky Beast to suddenly fall down.

Only Lu Xueman and Hu Yaya's people, one by one, were laughing with joy.

Ye Bufan's mouth also twitched into a playful smile. Just now, all of this was not accidental, it was all orchestrated by him.

The Ironback Skyhowler suddenly fell because Xiaoqing, according to his request, secretly released a wisp of the pressure from an eighth-order monster.

A third-order demonic beast, before an eighth-order demonic beast, would have no resistance whatsoever. In a panic, the Ironback Howling Sky Beast fell without any resistance.

And Ye Bufan secretly activated the Divine Court's Binding Art at this moment. With his current spiritual power, the power of the Binding Art he unleashed was naturally not very strong.

But the attack came suddenly, and Zheng Yihe's mind was momentarily lost. It took a second or two to hold him down, which was enough.

After a brief moment of shock, the crowd rushed forward and pulled the Ironback Howling Sky Beast to the side, rescuing the young master of the Zheng family from the pit.

Zheng Yihe now had no trace of his previous arrogance. His white robe was stained with mud, and his face was bruised and swollen.

If he hadn't had the protective true qi of a late-stage Refining Void realm expert, he would have died from this blow.

He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with dirt, roaring furiously: "You little punk, you dare to betray me!"

Although he didn't know what happened to the Iron-backed Howling Sky Beast, he knew the subsequent binding force must have been caused by the other party.

"Young Master Zheng, you're joking! Everyone is watching. I haven't moved at all."

Ye Bufan let out a playful smile, spread his hands innocently, and said, "They say that pretending to be cool attracts lightning. You're so arrogant that even the monsters can't stand it. What does that have to do with me"

"You're asking for it!"

At this moment, Zheng Yihe was so furious that he was almost driven mad. He didn't care about anything else anymore and raised his hand to strike a palm blow.u. Why are you hurting my child""Because you stole the man I loved most..." Changsun Qiu Lan was hit with seven needles of soul-binding technique, her expression vacant as she began to speak.It turned...
