Heavenly Dao Rankings: I Am Exposed As The Sword God

Chapter 62: Cultivator Li, Please Accept Our Bow

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

In the Jade Pure Dao Sect. After Perfected Yu Hua knew of Perfected Yan Ji’s death from the Heavenly Dao Rankings, he quickly sent someone to the Five Elements Sect to check on the situation.

“Maybe Perfected Yan Ji realized that his lie had been exposed and felt that his reputation had been swept to the ground? He probably committed suicide out of shame!” Elder Taiwu scoffed.

“It’s true that there’s such a possibility. If I fabricated such a lie and got exposed, I couldn’t bear to live in this world anymore due to shame!” Another elder commented.

“Hmph, if you ask me, he deserves it. He’s blinded by the benefits and committed such immoral things! This sort of person isn’t fit to be the master of a sect, nor is he fit to declare himself a part of the orthodox path. He has embarrassed us orthodox sects!” The few elders discussed animatedly.

As they spoke, they saw who was in seventh place.

“The Sky Water Sword! The Sky Water Sword is in Li Yu’s hand too!” Perfected Yu Hua was shocked again.

Although Li Yu had been on the list several times, Perfected Yu Hua did not expect the Sky Water Sword to be in Li Yu’s hands.

“In that case, the demon child was also killed by the Qingyun Sect! No wonder he suddenly disappeared!”

“The Qingyun Sect has really done a lot for our Great Xia Dynasty!”

“After today, the reputation of Qingyun Sect will definitely soar. With the robust foundation accumulated by the Netherworld Demon Sect, it won’t be long before their sect enters the first tier of our Great Xia!”

“Hmm, this is also a blessing for our Great Xia Dynasty. With the rise of such a powerful sect, our Great Xia orthodox sects will prosper, and the sinister devils shall retreat. Our Great Xia Dynasty will have a bright future again!”

“That’s right. If the Qingyun Sect did not help our Great Xia Dynasty eliminate the Netherworld Demon Sect and the demon child, I’m afraid that all of us orthodox sects would have suffered!”

“Taiwu, after the Divine Weapon Rankings finished its announcement, follow me to visit the Qingyun Sect!” Perfected Yu Hua requested.

He was well aware the Qingyun Sect was an orthodox sect that genuinely cared about the world, and it shared the same ideals as the Jade Pure Dao Sect.

They naturally had to build a good relationship with them and assist each other in the future. Together, they would safeguard the peace of the Great Xia Dynasty.

On the Dao Seeking Square, the shock in the hearts of Elder Cang Shan, Elder Qingxuan, and the others could not be any greater.

“The demon child was really killed by Li Yu. What Ye Qiu said is true!”

“Li Yu is truly the hero of our Great Xia Dynasty!”

“We all owe our lives to Li Yu!”

The various large sects knew inside that if Li Yu had not acted in time to kill that demon child, it was a matter of time they would be slaughtered by the demon child.

The miserable state of the Heavenly Water Pavilion was still fresh in their minds.

The fear that the demon child gave them still sent chills down their spines.

Now that they confirmed that the demon child was really killed, they could finally feel at ease.

“Ye Qiu, where is Cultivator Li?” Elder Cang Shan asked.

“Yeah. Why can’t we see Cultivator Li around? We must thank him in person!” Elder Qingxuan added.

“Indeed, we all owe Cultivator Li a thank you!” The elders of the other sects echoed.

They were grateful to Li Yu from the bottom of their hearts, and some even felt guilty.

It could be said that without Li Yu, their various sects would still be oppressed by the fiend sects and the various demons.

Yet, they had previously suspected that Ye Qiu was lying and was unwilling to believe that Li Yu was that mysterious expert.

In hindsight, they were too narrow-minded and inexperienced after all.

On the other hand, Li Yu had silently done so much for the Great Xia Dynasty, but he had never asked for credit from anyone.

They were truly ashamed of their inferiority compared to Li Yu.

“My Senior Brother just went to chat with the Crown Prince. He should be at the side of the Dao Seeking Square!” Ye Qiu replied.

“Alright, we’ll express our gratitude to Cultivator Li at once!” Elder Cang Shan suggested.

Everyone agreed, and then they marched out of the square to where the Crown Prince was.

At the same time, a new name appeared on the Divine Weapon Rankings.

Divine Weapon Ranking # 6: Tianwen Sword

Current Owner: Murong Cang

Origin: Emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty

Reward: Heaven-tier divine power, Azure Lotus Sword Art. Natural Spirit Herb—Three Soul Grass

“The Three Soul Grass! This is great! This is wonderful! Father can be saved!” Murong Xingqiao was absolutely thrilled when she saw the rewards for the Heavenly Dao Rankings.

Ten years ago, Murong Cang caught a strange illness. His body became weaker by the day, and he was dispirited. No one in the country could diagnose the condition.

Murong Cang was a Nascent Soul realm cultivator. With his cultivation and strength, it was nearly impossible to fall ill.

It was not until last year, when he was fortunate enough to invite an elder from the Clear Void Holy Land who specialized in medicine, that Murong Cang was confirmed to be inflicted with an extremely peculiar poison of a curse.

This poison was hard to discover. It would slowly corrode the soul until the poisoned person’s soul dissipated.

If Murong Cang was not a Nascent Soul realm expert, and without a powerful soul and a strong will, he would probably be long dead.

Unfortunately, although he had confirmed that Murong Cang was poisoned by the curse, that expert could not remove the poison for Murong Cang.

However, he mentioned that the Three Soul Grass had an excellent suppressive effect on this cursed poison. Although he was unsure if it could be cured, it would definitely provide good treatment and relief.

Still, the Three Soul Grass was extremely rare, and it was a priceless treasure that could only be encountered by chance.

In the past year, the Great Xia Dynasty had searched everywhere but did not find any Three Soul Grass.

She did not expect the Heavenly Dao Rankings would reward her father with a Three Soul Grass.

If her father could obtain a Three Soul Grass every month from the Heavenly Dao Rankings in the future, even if his poison could not be removed entirely, he should be able to live on for many more years.

Li Yu stared at Murong Xingqiao in astonishment.

Don’t the princes in those drama series all hope that their father would die soon so they could ascend the throne as early as possible?

I guess Murong Xingqiao isn’t interested in power at all.

Since she doesn’t want to be the emperor, I might as well trick her into becoming a disciple of our Qingyun Sect.

Now that I have Ye Qiu and Ji Qinglan, if I can recruit Murong Xingqiao into the Qingyun Sect, I would have completed three out of ten talented disciples.

As Li Yu’s imagination ran wild, a commotion broke out in the square.

Following that, the nearby guards yelled, “Stop! What are you doing!”

“We wish to pay our respects to Cultivator Li Yu. Is he here?” someone asked.

Li Yu and Murong Xingqiao heard the noise outside and walked out of the carriage with curiosity.

A vast group of people poured over from the square.

At a glance, there were probably ten thousand people. It was really like a human tide. The visual impact was stunning.

At the front of the crowd were the elders of the various large sects as well as Ye Qiu and Su Mu.

Everyone’s burning gazes converged on Li Yu when they saw him walk out of the carriage.

Elder Cang Shan stepped forward, cupped his hands, and shouted, “Cultivator Li, please accept our bow!”

After saying that, he bowed and cupped his hands. The ten thousand people behind him responded in unison and bowed as well, shouting in unison, “Cultivator Li, please accept our bow!”

The ten thousand people shouted in unison.

It seemed to converge into an incomparably solemn impetus that reverberated through the heavens and the earth, anyone who heard it would be moved.

Murong Xingqiao, who was used to being kowtowed by everyone, was struck by the scene in front of her.

As for Li Yu, he got goosebumps all over his body.

Be it in his previous life or this one, he had never witnessed such a scene.
