Protect Our Clan Leader

It's not easy to break through from the Purple Abode to the Divine Power Territory. First, the minimum bloodline talent required is Grade D for Great Heavenly Proud, and secondly, you need divine skills inheritance that matches your bloodline.

And the latter is a very crucial and scarce resource; each inheritance is worth five million immortal crystals, and often it's priced but unavailable for sale.

"So she is Master Binglan." Wang Ying Xuan sighed deeply, "I remember seeing her elder once when I was young. I heard she was the master of our Old Ancestor Longyan. I never thought she has already reached the Divine Power Territory. However, I remember our Lingyun Holy Ground doesn't have places of spiritual inheritance for ice magic."

"I'm not sure either. I'm not very familiar with her elder." Wang Licui whispered, "As soon as I entered the Academic Palace, I went on a training journey with Master Yunyang, so I haven't spent much time at Longzuo Academy."

As the two were discussing, True Monarch Shuang Ran was both surprised and delighted, and paid little mind to the impoliteness of Enlightened Binglan: "Not being the Principal of the Academy, doesn't that mean our human race has an extra Divine Power Territory?"

Reaching the Divine Power Territory already means becoming the backbone of the human race; naturally, the more such talents, the better.

For the nine states of the Immortal Dynasty, each state will have a Sacred Land, while each Sacred Land will set up an Academic Palace in various counties to select and cultivate elite disciples, thereby guarding the world.

Under normal circumstances, each Sacred Land will be guarded by someone in the Void Realm, while each Academic Palace will be led by someone from the Divine Power Territory as the Principal.

"Only in the Divine Power Territory?" Enlightened Binglan sneered and then took off her face veil, revealing a stunning, cold and exquisite face that even the disciples rarely saw.

She looked past True Monarch Shuang Ran, speaking coldly, "Yuyao Senior Brother, do you still recognize me?"

Yuyao Senior Brother?

The crowd was taken aback, subconsciously turning to look at the current head of the Ice Soul Peak, Enlightened Yuyao.

This Enlightened Yuyao is a middle-aged man with a noble appearance, quite young among many in the Divine Power Territory, almost considered youthful.

His age is not significant and he is a rising star in the Ji Ice Holy Land.

Enlightened Yuyao evidently didn't expect to be named, and after a moment of daze, he carefully studied Enlightened Binglan, his expression changing dramatically: "Qinglan Junior Sister, how can it be you! Weren't you back then already..."

Wow! Big scandal!

Wang Licui and Wang Ying Xuan were instantly energized, each grabbing a chair and barbecue, finding a "prime spot" in the corner to sit and enjoy the unfolding drama.

"Yuyao, do you recognize her?" True Monarch Shuang Ran's face darkened slightly.

Given his age, he could see today's events were not simple.

Enlightened Yuyao's face flushed red, his expression grew complex as he paid respect: "Reporting to the Sacred Master, this is Qinglan Junior Sister, who is from the same hometown as me in Suiyun state, and also a core disciple of the Ice Soul Peak lineage."

Among various Sacred Lands, those who become core disciples are certainly Sky Pride. But for people like True Monarch Shuang Ran, the master of the Sacred Land, a mere Sky Pride wouldn't draw much attention unless they were a Great Heavenly Proud.

"Just the same hometown and relationship of senior brother and junior sister?" Enlightened Binglan sneered repeatedly, "Yuyao, if you don't speak the truth today, I'll ensure Ji Ice Holy Land knows no peace for eternity!"

Truth?

Everyone could see, there seemed to be deep grudges between Enlightened Yuyao of Ice Soul Peak and this female Enlightened One.

"Really stimulating." Wang Ying Xuan's gossiping heart burned fiercely, imagination running wild.

"This…" In the gaze of the crowd, Enlightened Yuyao's face turned somewhat pale, he had no choice but to say, "This was five hundred years ago. The divine skills inheritance of Ice Soul Peak back then had just accumulated enough energy for one inheritance."

"And during that time, Ice Soul Peak didn't have a Great Heavenly Proud direct disciple, so we at Ice Soul Peak began the direct disciple selection as usual. Both Qinglan and I had Tianjiao Rating A in bloodline, both wanting to win the final competition, the reward being a Heavenly Vein Holy Pill, and then relying on it to step into the ranks of Great Heavenly Proud. But in the end..."

The result speaks for itself.

In the end, Enlightened Yuyao won, obtaining the magical power inheritance!

It seemed like nothing was wrong, but Wang Licui and Ying Xuan, siding inwardly with Enlightened Binglan, felt it couldn't be so simple.

Enlightened Binglan was the master of Old Ancestor Longyan and had vigorously protected the Old Ancestor and the Wang family. Such a person, would she bear grudge merely for losing a competition?

"Indeed." Enlightened Binglan smirked coldly, "Yuyao Senior Brother is still as hypocritical as ever from back then. Have you forgotten how you secretly drugged me to make me perform abnormally during the competition scene back then?"

Upon these words, the scene erupted with surprise, some were shocked, others were incredulous.

Enlightened Yuyao after all was famous for being a gentleman, usually showing great elegance… most people's first thought was disbelief.

Only Wang Licui and Wang Ying Xuan were filled with indignation, cursed outright: "Too despicable and shameless."

"Qinglan Junior Sister, such slanderous words, if you have no evidence, please refrain from making baseless accusations." Enlightened Yuyao turned red with anger, rebuking sternly, "I am your fellow disciple and same hometown, how could I poison you? Moreover, I even helped you seek opportunities in the North Ice Wasteland, it was you who accidentally fell off Hail Cliff."
