HEAVENLY DAO RANK: I WAS EXPOSED AS A SWORD GOD
Chapter 39: Ye Qiu's Resurrection Shocks Everyone
"That's right. My master is a hidden expert. Also thanks to his guidance I was able to reach my current cultivation.
“However, he has always been self-effacing and does not often live in our Great Xia Dynasty. This time, I did not expect him to secretly attack as well.
“That day, I just casually told him about the current situation of the Great Xia Dynasty. I didn't think he would help us so much! Zhu Xiaotian lied with a flat face.
After learning of the events of the day, he decided to take the praise of this mysterious expert for himself and the Zhu family.
No one knew who the mysterious expert was. Moreover, he quietly attacked and disappeared after that.
He probably didn't want anyone to know his true identity.
Therefore, even though he lied, no one knew.
This way, he could use the credit to make the Murong family owe him a debt of gratitude.
That would allow his father and the Zhu family to gain more power and status in the dynasty and strengthen their influence while deterring hostile factions.
Of course, he could also mend his relationship with the Crown Prince. After all, Murong Xingqiao must be hoping to gain the support of this mysterious expert.
“So so. I did not expect that unknown expert to be Young Master Zhu. I'd like to know if you can take me to say thank you to your master? Murong Xingqiao looked surprised, but she hesitated inside. After all, he would not listen to just one side of the story to determine the truth of the matter.
Of course, he had not denied that possibility. What if Zhu Xiaotian did not lie?
“My master prefers peace and quiet, and he doesn't want to be disturbed. Moreover, he had already secluded himself ever since he suffered the injuries of the Netherworld Demon Sect! I hope Your Majesty can keep this a secret for me. Better not tell anyone! Zhu Xiaotian replied with a serious expression.
“Mm, that's normal. Then, I must ask Young Master Zhu to thank your master on behalf of my father and the citizens of the Great Xia Dynasty. In the future, if he needs the help of the Great Xia Dynasty, we will definitely not refuse!” murong Xingqiao said.
Immediately, the lies that Zhu Xiaotian had so painstakingly woven into were spread deliberately.
News spread in the imperial palace of the Great Xia Dynasty, and even various subordinate families had heard of it.
At first, there may be some skeptics, but when this thing spreads, it sounds like the truth.
Everyone would rather believe than not. People became more afraid of the Zhu family, especially those on the side of the Grand Commander and were enemies of the prime minister.
The Zhu family was already strong. With experts backing them, nothing could damage their influence now.
Those who understood the situation began to take sides. Many of them visited the Prime Minister's lands and the Zhu family's residence.
For a while, the Zhu family was bustling and bustling.
Of course, this news also reached the Ye family.
“Haha, I never expected that Zhu Xiaotian of the Zhu family would take Li Yu as its master. It's catchy. In that case, my son has become Zhu Xiaotian's martial uncle!” Ye Guxiong laughed.
“Yes, even Zhu Xiaotian has joined the Qingyun Sect. It seems Qiu'er did not choose wrong!” Yang Shengnan did not think too much about it.
After all, they are innocent people. How could they know Zhu Xiaotian's wishful thinking?
Meanwhile, there was another version of the identity of an unknown expert circulating in the community.
The mysterious expert was the Patriarch of the Five Elements Sect, who had disappeared for many years. He had returned from the mystic realm.
It was he who killed the Wolf King and eliminated the Netherworld Demon Sect.
“This is actually the lost Patriarch of the Five Elements Sect!”
"really that? I heard that a peerless genius had once appeared in the history of the Five Elements Sect. He helped the Five Elements Sect shine for a while, and at its peak, even surpassed the Pure Dao Jade Sect.
“However, not long after becoming a sect master, he mysteriously disappeared. This happened five to six hundred years ago, yet he was still alive!”
“He might increase his lifespan after breaking through during his time in the mystic realm. In fact, many people doubted the credibility of their claims at the beginning. Even the Jade Pure Dao Sect and the Great Sky Dao Sect thought there was something fishy about this.
“After all, the Five Elements Sect took out the head of the Wolf King Tharman, which was the real thing. Even General Ye Guxiong, who had fought with Tharman many times, had justified it.
“Add again, they said that the Five Elements Sect even took out the ultimate technique manual of the Netherworld Demon Sect and some magic treasures to prove it!”
"Then, it really is the deeds of the Five Elements Sect Patriarch!"
"Should. Otherwise, who would have the ability to destroy the Netherworld Demon Sect!?”
“But I heard this was also done by teacher Zhu Xiaotian. Could it be that his master is the Patriarch of the Five Elements Sect?!”
“I don't know about that. Maybe became a student recently.”
“No wonder the Zhu family frequented the Five Elements Sect these few days!”
“Secte Five Elements will rise this time. With this incident, the status and influence of the Five Elements Sect would increase greatly!”
"That's right. It was said that His Majesty also rewarded the Five Elements Sect with ten thousand gold! Lately, the disciples of the Five Elements Sect were treated well wherever they went. Officials from all over the world treat them as honored guests and give them all sorts of privileges!”
“It looks like the Five Elements Sect will definitely shine in the Hundred Sect Recruiting Assembly in a moment!”
"Indeed!" In the restaurant of Nan'an City, a group of martial artists discussed excitedly.
As these people had said, the Five Elements Sect had garnered countless praise, and their reputation skyrocketed. It's just that everything is built on lies.
The Zhu family, who had also fabricated lies, had reached a certain agreement with the Five Elements Sect and cooperated secretly.
Both appear for the benefit of each so that this falsehood is more convincing.
Hence, this matter spread like wildfire in the Great Xia Dynasty, The reputation of the Zhu family and the Five Elements Sect could be said to have reached unprecedented heights.
This coincided with the five-yearly Hundred Sect Recruitment Meeting about to begin.
Many young people, especially teenagers filled with admiration for the mysterious hero, had changed their initial thoughts and decided to enter the Five Elements Sect.
…
On the other hand, waves of joyous cheers echoed from within the Qingyun Sect in the Nine-Tailed Mountain.
“I succeeded, I succeeded! Master, Senior Brother, I succeeded! I have entered the realm of Golden Body!”
Shouted Ye Qiu as he rushed into the main hall. He was so excited that his voice shook.
After that day, Li Qingyun gave him pointers according to Ye Qiu's cultivation process.
It greatly benefited Ye Qiu and even made him discover some mistakes in his cultivation.
Furthermore, Li Qingyun had also taught him a body forging cultivation technique that was said to be at an immortal level. It was called the Brahma Saint True Demon Art.
Even though he only had the first half, it still allowed Ye Qiu's cultivation to progress quickly.
Li Qingyun's cultivation had been crippled, and her memories of the Holy Horizon Holy Land's foundation technique had also been erased.
However, during his journey in the world, he broke through various mystic realms and eternal abode and found many opportunities. He obtained many of the best cultivation techniques in the process.
This Brahma Saint True Demon Art was only one of them.
Although it was a demonic art, the demon path had superior body refinement techniques, and this Brahma Saint True Demon Art was the best of all.
He knew that Ye Qiu had great potential for body forging, and he had heard that the Ye family was straight and honest, with his heart set on the people.
Ye Qiu was also a good child with good manners and a straight heart.
Therefore, he taught Ye Qiu the True Demon Art of Brahma Saint, a cultivation technique that would make many body cultivators infatuated.
In addition, Li Yu also gave some precious body supplement pills and spirit herbs that she obtained from the Netherworld Demon Sect to Ye Qiu to help her cultivation.
Ye Qiu's talent was indeed extraordinary. In less than five days, he had advanced from the final stage of the Tempering Body Realm to the Golden Body Realm!
If this were to spread, it would actually make the jaw drop.
However, Li Yu and Ye Qiu did not know that at this moment, many people in the Great Xia Dynasty were agape.

When Ye Qiu's cultivation broke through, his rank in Hidden Dragon Rankings surpassed Zhu Xiaotian and became second at the same time.
In a short period of time, many people in the Great Xia Dynasty were shocked and in an uproar.
