Night, eventually, would pass.

The morning sun shone through the trees, casting a mottled light and shadow on the ground.

For a moment, Yang Xiaotian felt the illusion of being back on Earth.

But soon, the roar of beasts near his ear pulled Yang Xiaotian back to reality.

Yang Xiaotian ceased his cultivation technique, stood up, and stretched his limbs.

A series of crackling sounds followed.

Although it had only been a few months since his Martial Soul Awakening, he had recently grown quite a bit taller.

At this time, Xiao Jin also stopped cultivating.

Having recently cultivated the Heavenly Beast Art, Xiao Jin’s scales gleamed even more golden.

Yang Xiaotian always felt that Xiao Jin was undergoing a transformation; even

Luo Qing had the same feeling.

The group drank a few sips of fine wine and ate some roasted meat before continuing on their way.

Another two days passed.

As they drew closer to the Heavenly Tribulation Cave, they encountered more and more fierce beasts.

When confronted with fierce beasts, Xiao Jin would sweep them away with a big swish of its tail.

Yang Xiaotian, on the other hand, used his sword.

Sometimes it was the Phantom Sword Technique, sometimes the Vast Sea Sword Technique, sometimes the Spirit Snake Sword Technique, and sometimes even the Heaven-Penetrating Sword Technique.

After two days, Yang Xiaotian’s mastery over the various sword techniques had improved significantly.

One day, as Yang Xiaotian and his companions were moving forward, suddenly, they heard cries for help coming from up ahead.

Among the cries for help, there seemed to be the voices of children as well.

“Let’s go and check it out!” said Yang Xiaotian, Luo Qing, and Xiao Jin, rushing in the direction of the cries for help.

Soon, they arrived at the scene.

There, they saw several fierce beasts encircling and attacking a group of students from Divine Sea Academy.

On the ground in the distance, there were already several corpses of Divine Sea Academy students lying there.

Even though Yang Xiaotian had a conflict with Divine Sea Academy more than a month ago during the freshman exchange, Divine Sword Academy and Divine Sea Academy traditionally had a good relationship. Seeing the situation, Yang Xiaotian did not hesitate to instruct Luo Qing and Xiao Jin to take action.

With Luo Qing and Xiao Jin stepping in, the fierce beasts were quickly slain.

“Yang Xiaotian!” At this moment, one of the rescued Divine Sea Academy students saw Yang Xiaotian and exclaimed in surprise.

Yang Xiaotian found the voice familiar and turned to see that it was actually Su Li.

Having had his back to him just now, Yang Xiaotian had not recognized the other person.

He had not expected that Su Li would be among the rescued students from Divine Sea Academy.

Just as Yang Xiaotian was about to speak, suddenly, the sound of tearing through the air approached, and he saw two teachers from Divine Sea Academy speeding towards them.

The two teachers from Divine Sea Academy arrived at the scene, and upon seeing the corpses of several Divine Sea Academy students in the distance, their faces turned ashen.

Among the dead students was the son of a duke from Divine Sea Country.

They would certainly face punishment upon their return.

“Who allowed you to leave the group without permission?!” Liu Guodong roared angrily at Su Li and the others.

He was responsible for this academic expedition.

Now that such an incident had occurred, how was he to explain this to the dean upon his return!

At this, Su Li suddenly pointed at Yang Xiaotian, “Elder Liu, it was him, Yang Xiaotian! During the last freshman exchange, I interrupted his contemplation of the Stone Sword, and he has held a grudge in his heart ever since. Just now, he deliberately lured the fierce beasts to attack us.”

“If it weren’t for Yang Xiaotian luring the fierce beasts to attack us, Feng Zhao and the others wouldn’t have died!”

Yang Xiaotian was stunned, then his eyes turned cold as he glared at Su Li.

He saved Su Li and the others, only for Su Li to falsely accuse him of bringing

the fierce beasts!

It seems that Su Li took some people away without permission, fearing to be held responsible, and wanted to make a scapegoat out of him.

At the same time, to kill him with the help of the Divine Sea Academy’s teachers?

It really was killing two birds with one stone.

At this point, the other rescued students also pointed their anger at Yang Xiaotian.

“That’s right, it’s Yang Xiaotian, he’s the one who brought the fierce beasts!!”

The students of the Divine Sea Academy were all filled with righteous indignation.

Yang Xiaotian chuckled coldly.

Liu Guodong’s gaze fell on Yang Xiaotian, his face darkened, and he reprimanded Yang Xiaotian, “So you are Yang Xiaotian from the Divine Sword Academy? I didn’t expect you at such a young age to have such malicious intentions!

“Life for a life, since the fierce beasts were brought by you, then you must come back with us now!”

Clearly, he wanted to take Yang Xiaotian back to face the Duke’s justice.

Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaotian let out a cold laugh, “Go back with you? What if I don’t go back with you?”

Anyone with clear eyes could see the holes in Su Li’s story.

He refused to believe that Liu Guodong and his companion couldn’t see through Su Li’s lies.

However, knowing that Su Li was lying and still wanting to capture him clearly showed that they both wanted him to be the scapegoat as well.

“Not going back with us?” Liu Guodong’s eyes turned cold, “Yang Xiaotian, don’t think that just because you are a genius with Twin Super Martial Spirits, we wouldn’t dare to do anything to you, behind the Divine Sea Academy stands the Royal Family of Divine Sea Country!” “It represents His Majesty the King!”

“I advise you, it’s best not to resist!”

As he said this, Liu Guodong did not hide the killing intent in his eyes.

At this moment, Su Li shouted, “Yang Xiaotian killed our academy’s students, according to the academy’s rules, the killing of our students is a capital offense!”

Another teacher from the Divine Sea Academy suddenly leaped into the air, his claw aiming for Yang Xiaotian’s head, “What Su Li said is correct, killing our students is a capital crime, kill him, then we’ll report to His Majesty the King!”

The sudden attack was fast as lightning, just as one claw was about to strike Yang Xiaotian’s head, suddenly, an astonishing blade qi streaked across the sky, before anyone could react, it instantly sliced through the neck of the Divine Sea Academy teacher.

The Divine Sea Academy teacher’s body stiffened midair, then, his head soared into the air from the sky, rolling to the ground dozens of meters away.

Only then did his lower body crash heavily to the ground.

With a shocking thud.

The sudden turn of events left Su Li, Liu Guodong, and the others dumbfounded.

To serve as a teacher at one of the four great academies of Divine Sea Country, one must be at least in the Martial King Realm, and the teacher from the Divine Sea Academy who had just been killed was at the third level of the Martial King!

“Who are you!” Liu Guodong looked in astonishment at Luo Qing, who was standing beside Yang Xiaotian.

The one who had made the move was, in fact, Luo Qing.

Luo Qing stood next to Yang Xiaotian, his aura subdued, unremarkable.

Yet, it was such an unremarkable middle-aged man who had just cut down a third-level Martial King!

“Kill!” Yang Xiaotian commanded coldly.

No sooner had Yang Xiaotian spoken than Luo Qing leaped up, his great sword slashing through the air, sending several peerless blade qis slashing towards Liu Guodong with an unstoppable force.

Liu Guodong was horrified and rolled away in panic, blade qi slashing down, and where he had just stood, there was a thunderous roar, with dust flying up into the sky.

Although Liu Guodong managed to roll away, his shoulder was still struck by a blade qi, and one of his arms was cut off.

Wracked with intense pain, just as he was about to attack with his sword, a figure followed the blade to him, Luo Qing’s sword directly penetrating his throat.

Luo Qing looked coldly at his opponent, withdrawing the sword. Liu Guodong’s face was full of disbelief as his body collapsed with a boom..
