Chapter 1278 - He’s Ruler Ming
Chapter 1278: He’s Ruler Ming
On the Spiritual Herbs Mountain, many outer sect disciples looked at Ou Yangming gloatingly.
“He actually admitted it!”
“So what if he doesn’t admit it? A lot of people heard it just now. As long as Steward Mo asks, he’ll be exposed right away.”
When Steward Mo saw Ou Yangming admit it decisively, a few cold lights flashed in his eyes.
This matter was neither big nor small. It mainly depended on how Steward Mo would deal with it. If it was a normal situation, he could just treat it as a slip of the tongue and let him off the hook. However, at this moment, he happened to have been provoked by Ou Yangming for nothing. He was very unhappy with the young fellow.
If a small outer sect disciple made the steward unhappy, he would be in trouble.
“What are your intentions? How dare you curse our sect leader!” Steward Mo’s voice was cold.
Hearing this, everyone knew that Steward Mo was about to get angry.
“Ou Yangming, hurry up and apologize to Steward Mo!” Song Qingshan said anxiously. As he spoke, he signaled Ou Yangming.
In the outer sect of the Mystic Sky Sect, offending a steward was the most unwise thing to do.
Ou Yangming smiled slightly, thanking Song Qingshan for his kind reminder. He looked at the sky and said, “Why should I apologize? I’m just telling the truth.”
In the sky, the sect leader of the Mystic Sky Sect was gradually showing signs of defeat. It seemed that he would not be able to hold on for long.
Nonetheless, the other people present couldn’t see it at all.
“Nonsense!”
Steward Mo’s eyes were as cold as ice. He shouted coldly, “Where are the disciples of the Law Enforcement Division?”
With that, 6 disciples in grey robes walked out from the crowd. They carried thin swords on their backs and had fierce and murderous auras.
“Capture this arrogant b*stard and give him 300 lashes. Then, he’ll be sent to the Firewood Mountain,” Steward Mo shouted.
The Bai brothers looked at each other, and their eyes were filled with surprise and joy. They had finally succeeded. This b*stard would never be able to make a comeback.
300 lashes! Even a top-grade Spiritualist would be crippled after taking so many lashes. If they were sent to the Firewood Mountain again, they would probably be finished for the rest of their lives.
A few disciples from the Law Enforcement Division surrounded Ou Yangming.
It was then when there was a loud explosion, and a figure fell from the sky.
Following that, there were a few crazy roars.
“Hahaha! The leader of the Mystic Sky Sect is just so-so. I’ll let you off this time. I hope you can take care of yourself.” Ruler Ying laughed maniacally in the sky.
There was only one person left in the sky. The result was self-evident. Their leader had been defeated.
“How’s this possible…”
The outer sect disciples could not believe it. The god-like existence in their hearts had been defeated.
“Ou Yangming was actually right.”
“What a joke. He must be guessing randomly.”
The outer sect disciples did not expect Ou Yangming to be right. The disciples of the Law Enforcement Division looked even colder.
As for the direct disciples and elders, they did not look too good either, but they were not always optimistic. The sect leader was very powerful, but that young man called Ruler Ying was not someone to be trifled with.
Countless people looked at the sky.
Ruler Ying was too mighty. Was there anyone in this world who could stop him?
The Ruler looked down at everyone. He announced, “My next target is Ruler Ming. The location is Starlight City. If you have nothing to do, you can come and take a look.”
“Ruler Ming’s reputation has just spread here. I didn’t expect him to be targeted by Ruler Ying. It seems that he really intends to challenge all the almighty powerhouses in the Great Wide World.”
The elders of the Mystic Sky Sect were all shocked.
A few school masters hurriedly went to look for Mystic Sky. The situation was still acceptable. He was heavily injured, but his origin was not damaged. He could recover after cultivating in seclusion for a period.
Hearing Ruler Ying’s words, Ou Yangming’s expression suddenly changed.
It was not because the other party had set his target on him, but because the other party would find him. This was within Ou Yangming’s expectations, but he also did not expect that the other party had figured out his movements long ago. Furthermore, he had chosen Starlight City.
Ou Yangming’s family members were all there. Ruler Ying had probably investigated everything clearly.
“What are you waiting for? Hurry up and take him down.”
Steward Mo shouted loudly. The outer sect disciples did not know who Ruler Ming was, so they did not need to care about him. After all, he was an existence that they would never be able to come into contact with.
“Your expression has finally changed, right? I thought you could keep pretending?”
Seeing the change in Ou Yangming’s expression, the Bai brothers said mockingly. They thought that he was afraid of the Law Enforcement Division disciples.
A few Law Enforcement Division disciples gradually approached. Just as they were about to reach out to grab Ou Yangming, the young fellow suddenly disappeared.
The disciples caught nothing. They were stunned.
“Where is he?”
“Why did he suddenly disappear?”
The outer sect disciples who were paying attention to this side were all dumbfounded.
“How did Ou Yangming disappear? He was clearly here just now.”
“He’s in the sky!” Someone suddenly exclaimed.
Everyone raised their heads and saw Ou Yangming again. The young fellow, who had been standing there just now, had flown into the sky.
“How can he fly?”
In the Great Wide World, only Venerable Ones could fly. ‘Could it be that he has broken through to a Venerable One?’
“How could he be so fast?”
At this moment, Ou Yangming’s figure was 10 kilometers away from them. Even if he was a Venerable One, it was impossible for him to disappear in front of their eyes in an instant and go to such a faraway place.
Just now, Ou Yangming had disappeared without any warning.
Steward Mo was also shocked.
He was a top-grade Venerable One, yet he could not see how Ou Yangming had flown into the sky just now.
“What is he trying to do?” Someone exclaimed.
They saw Ou Yangming walking toward that young man in the sky.
That young man was the supreme expert who had defeated their sect leader just now. ‘Is he courting his death?’
No one knew what Ou Yangming was going to do.
Many inner sect disciples and elders of the Mystic Sky Sect did not know either. Ou Yangming had participated in the Big Demons Extermination Meet, but only Mystic Sky and Zhao Juefeng had seen his appearance in the Mystic Sky Sect.
“Which sect is that guy from? What does he want to do? If he infuriates Ruler Ying, it’s over,” an elder of the Mystic Sky Sect said in alarm.
Before Ruler Ying arrived, they had ordered each division to restrain their disciples. Unexpectedly, there was still trouble.
“It’s him!”
Jianjia clearly saw the appearance of the person in the sky. She screamed and stood up, covering her mouth.
“Jianjia, do you know who he is?” Wang Changfeng looked at the figure in the sky and asked with a slight frown.
“He’s the genius that Uncle Zhang and I met on the flying boat. He’s the one who defeated that evil dragon!”
Jianjia did not expect that he would meet Ou Yangming here.
“Ridiculous!” Wang Changfeng did not look good. He had heard Zhang Suixian mention the genius he met on the road.
That horned dragon was only in the law boundary at most. How could it compare to Ruler Ying? If the young fellow went out now, he would be courting death. It was very likely that he would implicate the Mystic Sky Sect.
Ou Yangming stepped on the void and slowly walked to a place not far from Ruler Ying. He said in a deep voice, “There’s no need to go to Starlight City. I see that you didn’t use up much energy just now. If you want to challenge me, just settle it here.”
His voice was not loud, but it strangely reached everyone’s ears.
Hearing this voice, everyone was dumbfounded.
“What did he say?”
“Settle it here?”
“He wants to settle it with that powerhouse. Could he be…”
Recalling the words of Ruler Ying just now, some people had guessed the answer, but they still found it hard to believe.
‘He’s Ruler Ming?’
The Ruler Ming who had single-handedly charged into 1,000 Phoenixes Mountain and fought with the great ancestor of the Phoenixes. Additionally, he had even left safely.
At this time, the disciples from the outer sect found this hard to believe the most.
They stared at the sky with their mouths agape. ‘Is Ou Yangming Ruler Ming? Is he the almighty powerhouse that the young man is going to challenge next?’
“Are you kidding me?”
Everyone felt that it was ridiculous, especially Song Qingshan, the Bai Brothers, and Steward Mo, who had interacted with Ou Yangming before.
2 years ago, Ou Yangming was just a small outer sect disciple. Now, he had transformed into an almighty powerhouse like their sect leader. No one wanted to believe this.
“It’s fake. It must be fake!” Bai Chi could not believe it.
“It must be fake! What’s Ou Yangming doing? Could it be that he hates the Mystic Sky Sect and wants to anger that guy to take revenge on us?” Someone thought evilly.
Even Steward Mo could not believe it. He felt that what that disciple said made sense. It must be to take revenge on them.
Having said that, what Ruler Ying said next made everyone give up.
Ruler Ying squinted his eyes and looked at Ou Yangming. He smiled and said, “I didn’t expect you to be in the Mystic Sky Sect. This is perfect. It’ll save me some trouble. Oh right, where have I seen you before?”
He rubbed his head.
“Outside the Zhenwu Continent, when you killed the son of the Ruler Yunzhong, I was watching you from the side,” Ou Yangming said indifferently.
Ruler Ying laughed. “I remember now. It was at that time. I didn’t expect that we’d be so fated.”
“Yes, we’re quite fated.” Ou Yangming stretched out his hand and grabbed the void. The Reincarnation Spear that had fused with the Meteorite and turned dark brown appeared in his hand.
“Come.”
Ruler Ying was excited again. He stuck out his tongue and licked his lips. Then, his body suddenly disappeared.
Upon hearing their conversation, Steward Mo was so frightened that he fell to the ground. His body went limp. It was impossible for Ruler Ying not to recognize a fake. In other words, the outer sect disciple was really the legendary Ruler Ming.
“Ou Yangming, Ruler Ming!” Steward Mo muttered to himself, his face ashen.
“How’s this possible? How’s this possible?” The Bai brothers were stupefied. Ou Yangming, who they had harmed twice, had become a top-tier mighty figure.
What kind of joke was this?
‘If he really is Ruler Ming, what we said just now…’ The two brothers were so frightened that they were paralyzed on the ground. Their expressions were dull.
The few disciples of the Law Enforcement Division who were just about to capture Ou Yangming felt a chill on their backs at this moment. A chill instantly shot up from under their feet to the top of their heads.
If Ou Yangming had not left just now and had just casually counterattacked…
The result…
Once again, the battle in the sky began.
In an instant, Ruler Ying’s body appeared behind Ou Yangming. The Red Tassel Spear in his hand stabbed toward the back of the young fellow’s head.
“Die!”
The long spear opened up a hole in the air. Ruler Ying did not manage to pierce through Ou Yangming as the young fellow suddenly disappeared.
“Interesting, interesting. You’re the first almighty powerhouse I’ve met who has grasped the power of a high-level law.”
Ruler Ying’s eyes were filled with excitement. He looked at Ou Yangming like a hungry wolf that had not eaten for 3 days and had discovered delicious food.
In the blink of an eye, the 2 of them had exchanged dozens of blows. Both of them were proficient in the power of the law of space, and neither of them had touched the other before.
