Chapter 787 Storm (2/2)

Seeing Ye Bingling furious, many members of the Wind Pavilion also froze.

“Deputy pavilion master Ye, don’t get angry. They just couldn’t restrain their emotions. They naturally are full of respect for Lady Chi Jing. Who would dare insult her?” Jin Teng stepped forward and said calmly.

He swept a glance over Zhou Yuan on the platform. “But this matter is indeed a little strange. How can someone of the intermediate Divine Dwelling stage be qualified to become a deputy pavilion master?

“If this matter spreads to the ears of the people of the other three pavilions, our Wind Pavilion really will become a joke.

“We won’t be able to hold our heads high in the future.”

Yi Yan frowned. “Zhou Yuan is only at the intermediate Divine Dwelling stage, but he has defeated Mo Yuan, who is at the advanced Divine Dwelling stage, so his strength shouldn’t be judged by his cultivation level.”

Everyone’s eyes went wide and turned to look at Zhou Yuan, puzzled.

It was obvious that everyone present knew who Mo Yuan was. After all, he was ranked on the Divine Dwelling List, and although his ranking wasn’t high, he was stronger than the majority of people present.

Ye Bingling was similarly a little surprised.

He defeated Mo Yuan while he was still at the intermediate Divine Dwelling stage? Could it be that Zhou Yuan was indeed quite capable?

Jin Teng was taken aback at first; then he indifferently remarked, “Defeated Mo Yuan? That’s quite impressive.”

It was just that he seemed to have spoken in a slightly sarcastic tone.

“Mo Yuan’s strength is pretty good, but it’s not a benchmark. If he can become a deputy pavilion master just because he has defeated Mo Yuan, then there wouldn’t only be two deputy pavilion masters after all these years.”

Jin Teng was also ranked on the Divine Dwelling List, and he was ranked higher than Mo Yuan. Others might be shocked that Zhou Yuan had beaten Mo Yuan, but he wouldn’t be shaken by this.

Yi Yan’s face darkened seeing that Jin Teng was pestering endlessly. “Are you trying to go against Lady Chi Jing’s orders?”

“I don’t dare to. Why would I say so much if it weren’t for the sake of Lady Chi Jing’s prestige?” Jin Teng explained respectfully.

“All youngsters in the Wind Pavilion respect and admire Lady Chi Jing. We don’t want to see a mistake cause resentment in everybody’s heart. In the long run, it’s not beneficial to the development of the Wind Pavilion.”

Yi Yan opened his mouth and was about to speak when Zhou Yuan strode forward. Zhou Yuan looked Jin Teng directly in the eye and smiled. “What can I do to prove that I am qualified to be a deputy pavilion master?

He could already tell that Jin Teng was doing everything possible to prevent him from taking the position.

Jin Teng’s lips curved in a contemptuous smile when he saw that Zhou Yuan had finally come forward. “It’s simple, the people of the Wind Pavilion only focus on strength and not background.”

Zhou Yuan gently nodded. His expression suddenly turned cold the next moment.

Boom!

A powerful gush of Genesis Qi directly erupted from his body, and two muddle-colored Divine Dwelling halos appeared behind him.

Buzz!

He took a step forward.

A pair of mysterious light wings appeared around his body.

“Omega Saint Spirit Art!”

He swirled his palm, and a sword pill emerged.

“Devil Sweeping Sword Orb!”

Monstrous sword qi surged to the sky, causing many members of the Wind Pavilion to turn pale.

Buzz!

The sword qi stretched infinitely, enveloped the sword pill and turned into a sword of light.

Zhou Yuan still didn’t stop. He wiped his palm over the body of the sword, and World Subduing Heavenly Serpent Qi diffused and formed azure scales around the sword’s body!

Sword Qi flooded the world.

Zhou Yuan stared intently at Jin Teng like a sharp sword, and with a flick of his sleeve, that beam of sword light directly pierced the void under countless shocked gazes. It was aimed directly at Jin Teng!

At the same time, a cold and indifferent voice could be heard.
