Chapter 828 Embarrassment
The situation was on the verge of breaking out. Xin Gugu and Liu Changqing had already anticipated the battle that might break out next.
But the two of them were clearly only at the cultivation level of a âMaster (stage)â, yet at this moment, they forcefully stepped forward and did not retreat even half a step. âStep back!â
He understood the intentions of the two of them. Even if they were exposed in the end, they would not let him, Young Master Xu, die.
However, with his words, if Yu Lingdi still dared to provoke the Demi-Saint faction, capture and kill people in front of him in the name of a false âsuspicionâ⌠That would be a complete offense!
Xu Xiaoshou was certain that Yu Lingdi wouldnât make a move. If he wanted to make a move, there were people above him who could stop him. Of course, at this time, he couldnât let Xin Gugu and Liu Changqing, the two guardians, expose their identities. The two guardians werenât stupid either.
They held on for a moment. After they intended to protect Demi-Saint Young Master Xu and were reprimanded, they had no choice but to retreat several hundred feet away. These reactions were extremely normal in Yu Lingdiâs eyes.
After all, it would be suspicious if the guardian chosen by the Demi-Saint descendant was a coward.
Yu Lingdiâs gaze didnât shift away from Xu Xiaoshou at all. Instead, he slowly raised his right hand and pointed in the air.
The water element in the world gathered crazily. In an instant, heavy rain poured down.
In front of Yu Lingdiâs finger, when a bit of golden water gathered together, the heavy rain that filled the sky seemed to be frozen in time.
âIf thatâs the case, then you can go to hell,â Yu Lingdiâs eyes were not arrogant at all, as if he was telling a plain truth. Then, his fingertip bent slightly. At this instant, Xu Xiaoshouâs heart pounded wildly. A life and death threat caused all the pores on his body to explode.
âLocked-on, Passive Points +1.â
âThreatened, Passive Points, +1.â âAmbushed, Passive Points +1.â
He did not make a single move, but it was judged as a covert attack by the system.
One could imagine just how terrifying Yu Lingdiâs golden water finger was.
Xin Gugu, who had retreated, instantly tensed
At this distance, he could guarantee that the moment Yu Lingdi made his move, he could instantly break the seal and receive this attack for Xu Xiaoshou at a speed close to teleportation.
As for Liu Changqing, he had never expected that Young Master Xu would help him to such an extent even though they had only met by chance!
His hands and fingers were hidden in his sleeves, and the mysteries of the Divine Secret were secretly emerging. He was also certain that he could use the Divine Secret technique to change Young Master Xuâs position the moment Yu Lingdi attacked.

At this critical momentâŚ
A delicate voice came from afar.
At the same time, the rain that filled the sky evaporated into thin air and vaporized on the spot.
That familiar heatwave, that faint sound that lingered in the nightmare every midnight, that white flame that suddenly bloomed in the voidâŚ
At the first moment, it made Yu Lingdiâs soul tremble. It was as if he had returned to the nightmare battle in the Eighth Palace.
âInfernal White Flame?â
Yu Lingdi did not even dare to delay the slightest bit of time. He looked back at the person who had spoken behind him as if he was facing a great enemy. She was dressed in black.
âTrial officer?â Yu Lingdi was stunned.
At an instant, he even thought that the Saint Servantâs Sleeveless had returned.
But when he turned around, he saw a young girl carrying a huge cauldron. Her face was filled with anger.
She had a huge strength that did not match her graceful figure. She also had a fiery temper that was similar to that of the Infernal White Flame. As soon as she landed, she frowned and scolded.
âWhere are you from?â âHow dare you come to my place? Iâm in charge of the inner area. Who gave you the order to cross the border?â
Xu Xiaoshou secretly heaved a sigh of relief after the life-and-death crisis was resolved. He looked around but did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Hua Ying⌠Why did this little girl come? And why did she become a trial officer?
Yu Lingdiâs brows furrowed deeply.
He sensed the tyrannical aura of the Sovereign (stage) in the sky, and he could faintly feel that it had 80-90% of the power of his Sovereign (stage).
He then looked at the Infernal White Flame, which was burning with heaven and earth element, and made some guesses about the identity of this young girl. âHoly Palace, Infernal Lineage?â
Yu Lingdi only knew that a special envoy had come from the Holy Palace, but he did not know that this person had the same ability as the Saint Servant Sleeveless in his nightmare.
âMy name is Hua Ying.â
Hua Ying acted as if she did not know her Uncle Xu at all. She did not even glance at him as she stared at Yu Lingdi. âWhatâs your name? Youâre quite young? Youâre also a trial officer? Youâre a stowaway, arenât you? You donât even know Iâm in charge of this area? Evildoer, show your true identity!â
She was like a chatterbox. As she spoke, she put down the cauldron in her hand.
Yu Lingdi was slightly stunned. His expression quickly darkened as he said, âSince youâre a trial officer, you should know who has the right to randomly appear in this area youâre in charge of.â
Hua Ying was stunned but she quickly reacted. âOh, youâre the trial officerâs Chief Commander, the Spirit Division Chief, Yu Lingdi?â Yu Lingdiâs heart was filled with anger, and he had nowhere to vent it.
But he could also see that this girl was really stupid!
âYouâre so young?â Hua Ying was then surprised. She picked up the cauldron and jogged over, sizing him up. She then said curiously, âI thought the chief of the six divisions are all from the previous era. They are all old men, but youâre actually so young. Could it be⌠Ugh! I didnât say anything!â Yu Lingdiâs face darkened. After the surprise, Hua Ying was no longer hesitating. She glanced at her Uncle Xu and asked tentatively, âThen, Chief Commander, what brings you here?â âDidnât you see?â Yu Lingdi asked back with a cold tone. He was just one step away from confirming the truth.
Now, he was interrupted by this stupid girl. How could he not be angry? Hua Ying smiled thoughtlessly, âChief Commander, you also like Young Master Xu? Unfortunately, he is the one I liked first. Even if you want to test his ability, he has already been taken by me!â This time, she smiled brightly. Yu Lingdi was stunned before he reacted.
This girl was not really stupid. She could tell that he was testing Young Master Xuâs, as well as his guardiansâ abilities. In addition, Young Master Xu might be facing a death threat, so she stood out to protect him?
After Yu Lingdi reacted, he understood better.
The six divisions were subordinate organizations of the Holy Divine Palace.
Sword Deity Rao had indeed chosen Young Master Xu, and Yu Lingdi had also chosen him. They all wanted to pull him into the camp of the Holy Divine Palace.
But the Holy Palace had also chosen Young Master Xu.
The difference was that the Holy Divine Palace valued Young Master Xuâs aura, cultivation level, and ability to conduct alchemy. But what the Holy Palace valued was Young Master Xuâs status as a fourth-grade Sovereign (stage) of conducting alchemy!
âHe also has a sub-occupation of conducting alchemyâŚâ Yu Lingdi sighed in his heart. He had naturally forgotten about this matter. Only after a while did he remember. He was a little speechless. This person knew too many things, didnât he?
In essence. The status of the Holy Palace was equal to that of the Holy Divine Palace.
This time, Hua Yingâs sudden intention could be completely explained. She didnât come out by chance. She was competing with the Holy Divine Palace! With the Holy Divine Palaceâs bad impression given to him, what impression would Young Master Xu have of the two factions if she, the representative of the Holy Palace, came out to help?
Without a doubt, one was good and the other was bad!
According to Yu Lingdiâs plan, no matter how Young Master Xu angered him, he wouldnât hurt him. Even if he was forced to the last resort, he would only want to see how he resisted.
No matter how extreme he was, as long as he did not make a move, he would explain again after his validation.
This small problem between the two sides could be solved in an instant.
Yu Lingdi could even take advantage of the situation and express the Holy Divine Palaceâs approval and appreciation for Young Master Xuâs ability to remain calm in the face of danger.
The situation was bound to succeed!
People could be roped in, identities could be verified, and the mission could be completed!
Such an evil-minded girl had appeared out of nowhere, and Yu Lingdi no longer could act following what he had planned.
Along the way, she had also destroyed the good opportunity.
However, the timing of her appearance was just right. She had painted herself a picture of a good person.
In the name of the Holy Palace, she was snatching the person away from Yu Lingdi. For a moment, even Yu Lingdi, who had a good temperament, was angered to the point that smoke was coming out of his head by Hua Yingâs appearance.
He even had the intention to make a move!
However, could he kill the envoy of the Holy Palace?
âWhy are you looking at me this way?â
Hua Ying was glared at fiercely by Yu Lingdi. She was a little scared, but she said confidently, âI also have status. Iâm only here for fun as a trial officer. Iâm not afraid of youâŚâ
When she saw Yu Lingdiâs expression change, Hua Yingâs tone changed as well. âBut donât worry Chief Commander, thereâs no problem with the area Iâm in charge of, except you.â Yu Lingdi was furious.
This girl was not afraid of his status at all. She was just here to disgust people!
However, he did not make a move. He could only suffer and have nowhere to vent his anger.
If he made a move, the trial officer under him would transform into a special envoy of the Holy Palace with extraordinary status. He couldnât afford to offend her.
He was fought in between.
This anger was as if could crush his teeth and swallow his blood. But he had to endure it!
On the other side. Xu Xiaoshou didnât expect that Hua Ying would suddenly appear out of nowhere and directly rescue him. In the beginning, he was just speculating like Yu Lingdi. He felt that the timing of Hua Yingâs appearance was simply wonderful. The special envoy of the Holy Palace had gone head-on with the chief of the six divisions. He had stopped halfway because there was an important person of the Infernal Lineage. The reason was that she was a fourth-grade Sovereign (stage) in conducting alchemy. It was simply perfect!
But then he thought about itâŚ
Perhaps Miss Hua didnât have the brains to think so much. It was simply because she saw that her Uncle Xu was in trouble and had carried the cauldron out to shout around.
No matter what, Yu Lingdiâs aura had already been broken, and he could no longer make a move.
If he pulled a long face again, he would have to fight against the Holy Palace and Demi-Saint Xu Clan, the two giants. The scene suddenly became quiet. The atmosphere had reached its peak just now. One died and the other was injured.
But now it suddenly became so harmonious. Hua Ying was stunned too.
Seeing that everyone was silent, she looked left and right. Anyway, she did not know the reason, and she also wanted to be the peacemaker. Thus she said, âItâs fine now? Itâs fine⌠then itâs over?â
The corner of Yu Lingdiâs mouth twitched, and he clenched his fist slightly before releasing it again. Xu Xiaoshou secretly laughed in his heart. This time, he concluded that Hua Ying was really stupid and could not see anything.
However, he had to give face to the Chief of the Spirit Division. Xu Xiaoshou couldnât withstand the next wave of thorough investigations of the chief commander of the trial officer.
Therefore, he gave a way out. âIs it over, the chief commander of the trial officer?â Xu Xiaoshou chuckled as if the confrontation just now didnât exist at all. He said calmly, âIf you canât give evidence and want to forcefully test it, I can understand the situation.â
âHowever, you didnât ask me if I can explain your suspicions!â Xu Xiaoshou slightly raised his head, full of aura.
Yu Lingdiâs face darkened, and he turned his gaze over. Xu Xiaoshou pointed at Liu Changqing and said, âDivine Secret technique? Does the Chief Commander really think that in this world, only the Path Division of the six divisions can study the Divine Secret technique? And the others can only study the Way of Spirit Array, not even a little bit of the Divine Secret technique?â
Yu Lingdi sneered, âThatâs not the case. The timing, the character, and the location and ability of the guardians beside you cannot be explained! As long as there is doubt, we have the responsibility and obligation to solve it on the spot. As for you? How else can you explain it?â
Xu Xiaoshou sighed and shook his head, indicating that he still could not agree with the other partyâs words.
He spread his hands, palms facing upwards. His fingertips moved agilely like dancing. âThen what about this? Can this be explained?â The patterns of the Divine Array could be seen.
In Xu Xiaoshouâs hands, a small-scale Divine Array of path mechanisms was formed.
The surrounding space was modified. His face directly changed into Yu Lingdiâs appearance. Yu Lingdi was stunned.
Liu Changqing was also stunned.
âSuspected, Passive Points +3.â Xin Gugu was the only one present, looking at Xu Xiaoshouâs little trick, and felt a surge of admiration. Bringing out the Divine Secret technique at this time was truly amazing! Even he, who wasnât very smart, could see that for the Demi-Saint Xu Clan to have a guardian who had Divine Secret technique wasnât a problem at all.
How could Yu Lingdi still be suspicious? But the key point was⌠If it was someone else, this situation would be like a hole in the sky that couldnât be mended!
But how could Xu Xiaoshou know so much! Xin Gugu sighed silently, once again marveling at Xu Xiaoshouâs methods. This fellow knew too many things. Time and time again, he was able to make the fake into the real and the black into the pure white!
âHow is this possible?â Yu Lingdi was stunned. He looked at âhimselfâ in front of him and then the Divine Path Pattern on the hand of the âhimselfâ, he knew that this was undoubtedly the Divine Secret of the Path Division.
âThe Demi-Saint Xu Clan has the inheritance of Divine Secret?â Yu Lingdi asked in surprise. Xu Xiaoshou rolled his eyes and said directly, âNo, this Divine Secret was developed by me on my own. I call it the Weaving technique.â Yu Lingdi was speechless. He was about to collapse. He did not expect that the other party could directly provide the evidence on the and deny his suspicion on the spot. âYou should have said it earlierâŚâ Yu Lingdi stopped in the mid of his sentence.
Xu Xiaoshou was very vicious. Seeing that the atmosphere had calmed down, how could he not take a bite?
âDid you give me a chance to speak? Youâre so aggressive as if youâre rushing to be reincarnated!â he pursed his lips. Yu Lingdi was dumbfounded.
Xu Xiaoshou turned a blind eye to his dumbfounded expression and continued, âBesides, if she didnât turn up, and if I revealed my Divine Secret technique, how would I know that you wouldnât have a second excuse? You might say that two ghost beasts who mastered the Divine Secret technique had appeared in the Sky City, and one of them happened to have the same ability as mine?â he pointed at Hua Ying and said. Hua Ying smiled brightly. She thought to herself, âIâm really useful. Uncle Xu has given me his recognition. It was right that I showed up.â
Yu Lingdi was speechless.
This time, he was really embarrassed.
The Divine Secret was indeed not unique to the Path Division. It was just that the Path Division was specialized in it.
The legacy of the Divine Secret was scattered in the outside world, and there was no systematic way to cultivate it. Most of the wild Divine Secret Sorcerers were not proficient in it. They couldnât even be called a âDivine sorcererâ. It was considered good enough to be called a âDivine Manâ.
But the Demi-Saint family was different!
As long as one wanted to learn it, they were qualified to enter the Path Division.
Although the important parts of the Divine Secret technique of the Path Division could not be taught to outsiders, as long as after a few generations, there would be a small number of people who received the true inheritance and brought some of their abilities back to the clan. They would secretly cultivate some good seedlings in the clan who could resist the Divine Sorcerer.
It was just a tacit understanding.
It would not show up until the critical moment.
Yu Lingdi finally felt relieved.
It turned out that after fighting for a long time, they actually almost fought to the death in the end.
In the end, he was indeed wrongâŚ
