Chapter 637: Chapter 340: The Challenge of the Azure Sea’s Proud Son, Xie Lingfeng’s Breakthrough

Yuntian Azure Sea City became noisy with the arrival of Xu Yan.

Atop a high tower of the City Lord’s Mansion, Fu Tianhai stood in the corridor, flanked to his left and right by Xie Tianheng and Fu Yun.

Originally, Fu Yun had planned to go and defuse the situation, but Fu Tianhai stopped him himself.

“Xu Yan is indeed impressive!” Xie Tianheng sighed.

Then, glancing at his father-in-law, he said, “See, you wouldn’t let anyone intervene, and now it’s the City Lord’s Mansion that’s losing face, right?”

Fu Tianhai’s face darkened. He put his hand on Xie Tianheng’s shoulder and, smiling, said, “Do you dare to question my decision? Where do you get the courage? Don’t think that just because you have the name ‘Sword King,’ you’re something special.

“In my eyes, you’re still not worth mentioning.”

Xie Tianheng grimaced, feeling as if a mountain was pressing down on him, almost falling apart. His father-in-law’s strength was truly overwhelming.

But he was not convinced and snorted, “If I were at the same realm as you, you would definitely not be my match!”

“Dominating by realm is also a matter of strength!” Fu Tianhai sneered.

“Heh, if I were your age, I would have surpassed your current realm long ago. Having access to so many cultivation resources and cultivating for such a long time to have only this much strength… If it were me, I would definitely feel ashamed.”

Xie Tianheng remained defiant.

Fu Tianhai clenched his fist and after a prolonged silence, said, “You’re being completely unfilial!”

Boom!

“Dammit! Bullying the young, aren’t you ashamed!”

“Father-in-law beating his son-in-law, what’s there to be ashamed of?”

Fu Yun looked on helplessly. When Xie Tianheng first arrived, he was quite humble, not at all haughty, obedient to his father-in-law, trying to please in every way.

It made her wonder if this was still the Xie Tianheng she once knew.

Had he changed his temperament?

As it turned out, once his strength increased, he finally reverted to his arrogant ways.

“Father, please go easy!”

On hearing this, Fu Tianhai hit even harder.

In the courtyard below, Xu Yan and Xie Lingfeng caught up with old times and then began to transmit the Divine Origin Realm Martial Arts Techniques to Xie Lingfeng, while taking out Pills to aid Xie Lingfeng’s cultivation.

“Brother Xie, you’ve been refining your Divine Intent Realm to perfection for a long time and have accumulated some foundational strength, but it’s still not enough. Accumulate a bit more foundation, and when you make the breakthrough, you can transform and ascend, entering the Divine Origin Realm with even greater strength,” Xu Yan instructed.

For the next half month, Xu Yan guided Xie Lingfeng in his cultivation and his Sword Dao.

It wasn’t until Xie Lingfeng had accumulated enough foundational strength and began his reclusive breakthrough to the Divine Origin Realm that Xu Yan finally saw the long-separated Xie Tianheng and Xie Lingfeng’s mother, the City Lord’s honored daughter, Fu Yun.

However, Xie Tianheng looked as though he had been thrashed, with a bruised and swollen face.

He couldn’t help but be curious—who had beaten up the Azure Sea Sword King?

“Do you have any Healing Pills? Give me one; that old man hit me too hard!” Xie Tianheng said, holding his face.

For several days, a force had enveloped his face, preventing him from healing.

With such a dignified appearance, naturally, he couldn’t venture outside, or wouldn’t that undermine the might of a Sword King?

Xu Yan realized then, so he had been beaten by his father-in-law.

He handed a bottle of Pills to Xie Tianheng.

After another round of catching up, Xie Tianheng introduced Fu Yun with great pride.

Having married Fu Yun, a woman of such esteemed status from the Spiritual Realm, back in the Inner Domain, he had viewed no one as his equal, which was also why he had seen everyone else in the Inner Domain as beneath him.

“My Sword Dao is somewhat at a standstill. I always feel like I’m just a bit away from a breakthrough,” Xie Tianheng sighed.

He had come to seek guidance on the Sword Dao from Xu Yan.

Naturally, Xu Yan then provided guidance on the Sword Dao to Xie Tianheng.

Just after Xu Yan finished guiding Xie Tianheng on the Sword Dao, a steward hurried over and said, “Miss, Li Shao from the Wanxing Martial Arts Institute has named Xu Yan, Young Master Xu, for a challenge!”

“Li Shao?”

Fu Yun was taken aback.

Xie Tianheng furrowed his brows, “Why is this guy challenging him?”

Xu Yan’s eyebrows raised with curiosity and he asked, “Li Shao, what’s his strength like?”

“Li Shao is hailed as the foremost prodigy of his generation at the Wanxing Martial Arts Institute, even known as the top prodigy of the Azure Sea. It is said that he has condensed the aura of three Heaven and Earth Laws.”

Fu Yun explained.

Xie Tianheng added, “There are rumors that Li Shao possesses a Spiritual Body.”

Xu Yan’s interest was piqued. He had always heard of Spirit Body Prodigies but had never had the chance to battle one. So, Li Shao was a Spirit Body Prodigy?

No wonder he had condensed the aura of three Heaven and Earth Laws.

Spiritual Bodies, being closer to the Domain Spirit Spark, more easily condense the Domain Spirit Spark and the aura of the Heaven and Earth Laws.

He looked at the steward and said, “Tell Li Shao that if he wants to challenge me, that’s fine, but he must defeat the Great Commander first. Otherwise, he is not qualified to challenge me!”

While curious about Spirit Body Prodigies, not just anyone was qualified to challenge him. If Li Shao managed to defeat the Great Commander, then he could challenge Xu Yan; if he couldn’t even beat the Great Commander, then there was no point in thinking about challenging him.

“This…”

The steward looked at Fu Yun, and with her approval, hurried off.

Shortly after, the steward hurried back.

“Miss, Haibo’er of the Sea Spirit Tribe has named Xu Yan, Young Master Xu, for a challenge!”

Fu Yun was surprised again.

“Haibo’er is the strongest prodigy of the current generation from the Sea Spirit Tribe, rumored to have an exceptional bloodline as the granddaughter of the current Sea Spirit Tribe leader. She is said to have condensed the aura of three Heaven and Earth Laws and is known alongside Li Shao as the Dual Prodigies of the Azure Sea.”

Fu Yun briefed them.

“The same rule applies—defeat the Great Commander, and then I’ll accept the challenge!” Xu Yan said, waving his hand dismissively.

Once again, the steward hurried off.

The Great Commander’s face turned dark as he looked at the aggressively approaching man and woman who came to challenge him, feeling like he was on the verge of coughing up blood.
