Chapter 0848: The Undefeated Venerable

The guests were very pleased with the spectacle they had just witnessed. Although this was just a battle between their juniors, they had utilized the power of Dukes thanks to the effects of Harmony.

At the same time, they were secretly shocked by the results. These were indeed the young talents from a Heavenly Emperor Bloodline—their potential was endless.

Originally, they had thought that the battle between Qin Yi and Li Qingfeng would be the highlight of the event. After all, those two were the cream of the crop amongst the younger generation of two Heavenly Emperor forces.

None of them had expected Li Luo to emerge victorious.

In addition, Li Jingtao from the Dragon's Fang Lineage had also gotten much attention. After all, his strength was indisputable if he could stop an all-out attack from Li Qingfeng.

Even though the gap between their strength had narrowed due to the effects of Harmony, a win was still considered a win.

On the other side, Qin Yi landed in front of the Fire Lotus Camp amidst the hustle and bustle. She tilted her head slightly, and her hair fell onto her beautiful, jade-white cheeks. Her crystal-like nose was as high as a mountain, making her facial features more distinct and delicate.

She bit her red lips lightly. There was some disappointment in her expression due to the loss she had just experienced. Many of the men present felt heartache for her when they saw her touching countenance. Some of the Fire Lotus Camp squad leaders who had a better relationship with her even came forward to comfort her.

In response, Qin Yi simply smiled and calmed herself down. She then glanced towards Li Luo, who was not far away. Surrounded by the cheers of the Green Nether Banner, he was even more dazzling than ever. She blinked a little, but no one really knew what was on her mind.

Following this, she walked past the crowd and headed towards Qin Lian.

She bowed and greeted Qin Zhiming first. "Respected Elder, I have failed. I am sorry for the disappointment."

Qin Zhiming merely laughed in response and waved his hands in the air. He was not really bothered by it. "Your performance was pretty good. There's no need to brood over such a small loss. There will be other chances in the future."

His eyes clearly expressed his love for Qin Yi.

Qin Yi nodded in acknowledgement. After saying a few more words to Qin Zhiming, she walked towards the back, where Qin Lian was seated, without much of an expression.

Qin Lian looked at Qin Yi and coughed with a little dissatisfaction before she angrily said, "It's okay to lose, but why did you have to lose to that little brat?"

Helpless, Qin Yi replied, "I did not hold back against him. However, Li Luo is really quite capable."

"How capable can he possibly be? After all's been said and done, he's just using the power of Harmony to bridge the gap in actual strength," Qin Lian said coldly. She was clearly not open to any complimentary phrases or words about Li Luo.

"You should have been more decisive. Even if you had to give up trapping everyone in the water palace, you should have given it your all to finish him off."

Qin Yi was completely helpless before her mother’s reprimanding words. After all, the instruction to showcase the power of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qing and entrap the entirety of the Heavenly Dragon's Five Lineages’ representatives using the water palace had come from Qin Lian. She had actually pulled it off successfully. Who would have expected Li Luo's final move to have been aggressive beyond her imagination? Even her Invincible Water Jade Armor could not withstand his attack.

Although Qin Yi was quite confident in her own strength, they were really underestimating the talents of the Heavenly Dragon's Five Lineages if they thought she could keep them down with just her power alone.

"Qin Lian, don't be so harsh on Little Yi. She has displayed her prowess by keeping Li Qingfeng and the rest trapped in the water palace for a very long time. All the guests present saw this for themselves. If she fought with all her strength in a one-on-one, not even Li Luo would be able to rival her. Actually, you were a little too greedy today. Initially, I just wanted Little Yi to get the Golden Dragon Pillar. Instead, you wanted her to reveal her true strength and go up against all the other talents of her age. Did you think Li Qingfeng and the rest would be completely useless?" Qin Zhiming's voice came out slowly at this point.

Hearing his words, Qin Lian's expression changed instantly. Despite her strong and fiery personality, she did not dare to raise any objections against Qin Zhiming, the Respected Elder from her direct bloodline. She simply kept quiet sullenly.

Chu Qing, who hadn’t said a word this whole time, smiled lightly and said, "Teacher, Junior Sister actually did a really good job today. Li Luo only managed to get a lucky victory thanks to the assistance from Harmony. If he had to rely on his own strength, we don't even need to talk about him beating Junior Sister. I am afraid he wouldn't even win against half of the people in the Twenty Banners."

Qin Lian let out a gloomy sigh after hearing this. "Do you think I don't know about all these things? I just can't stand watching that little brat win. Looking at his face reminds me of that irritating woman, Tan Tailan!"

Qin Yi shook her head, lost for words. She had heard so much criticism regarding Tan Tailan from Qin Lian over the years that she had grown numb to it.

"Mother, Li Luo will be in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent for the foreseeable future. There is still a lot of time. There will be many opportunities to face him in the future. We don't need to brood over this small loss. Besides, today is the birthday celebration of the Lineage Chief of the Dragon's Blood Lineage. If we act too out of line, there will be some dissatisfaction towards us," Qin Yi stated softly.

Qin Lian only nodded after hearing this. In a low and cold voice, she told her daughter, "Remember what you said today. When the chance arises in the future, I don't want to hear any excuses. There must be no more accidents. I want you to completely annihilate Li Luo and crush his fighting spirit. I want everyone in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent to know that Li Taixuan and Tan Tailan’s offspring is no match for the daughter of Qin Lian. You all know about the past enmity between Li Taixuan, Tan Tailan, and I. Li Taixuan broke off our engagement and caused me to lose face. Tan Tailan killed my brother. This blood debt must be paid. As my daughter, there are some things that you cannot avoid.

"We do not know if Li Taixuan and Tan Tailan are dead or alive now. Since Li Jingzhe spoke in his favor, I will naturally not step out personally against a junior. However, if those two return in the future, I will definitely settle this debt with them."

Hearing her mother's words, Qin Yi lowered her eyes a little and nodded silently.

In contrast to the scolding over at Qin Yi's side, Li Luo's side was bustling with celebration. With all these gazes of admiration from the Green Nether Banner members, he was feeling a little smug.

Of course, his greatest joy was the rich harvest from the dragonbreath pool.

Seven strands of Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath would be more than enough to fill up the huge gap in his triple resonances even after giving one strand to the Three-tailed Heavenly Wolf. With this, he would finally be able to accomplish his goal of using 35,000 strands of abstruse fiend light to break into the Fiend Body Tier.

Once he stepped into the Fiend Body Tier, the gap between his individual strength and that of the top talents such as Li Qingfeng and Lu Qingmei would narrow considerably.

A peal of laughter came from behind Li Luo at this point. When he turned around, he saw Li Jingtao coming over. "Haha! Third Brother, you've really stunned everyone today. Seven strands of Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath—this is exceptional even when you consider the entire history of the dragonbreath pool battles."

Li Luo smiled and replied, "Eldest Brother, you did well for yourself too. You shocked everyone with your skill today."

Li Jingtao responded with a bitter face, "I would rather that not be the case. Actually, I'm really not that good. I just have a rough and thick skin, so I can take a bit of a beating. Compared to the other Banner Leaders, I'm still lagging far behind."

Hearing this, the corner of Li Luo's mouth twitched a little. “Eldest Brother, your defensive art was really impressive. If you really put your mind into resisting, even Li Qingfeng would be held down by you.

“You're unable to defeat your opponent... but your opponent can't knock you out either.”

"Eldest Brother, don't belittle yourself. Your defensive art will give many of the top talents in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent a headache in the future. Perhaps you will be the last person they will want to fight against."

Rubbing his chin, Li Luo smiled and continued, "Eldest Brother, I have a feeling that you will get a nickname in the future."

"What nickname?" Li Jingtao asked curiously.

The Undefeated Venerable, Li Jingtao!" Li Luo said seriously.

Li Jingtao blinked, and a harmless smile appeared on his slightly chubby face.

"It sounds nice, but let's not fight if possible. I like to treat people kindly," he responded.

A cold voice came from behind Li Jingtao at this moment. "Oh? The Undefeated Venerable? Sounds pretty good."

Hearing this familiar voice, the smile on Li Jingtao's face froze a little.
