Jianjia was annoyed. She really had no way to prove that she knew Ruler Ming.
The young man saw Jianjia’s troubled look and became even more excited. “I knew you were bragging. How could Ruler Ming know a little girl like you!”
Jianjia was sharp-tongued. Usually, the youth was often attacked by her, but he finally found a chance to fight back this time.
“Who are you calling a little girl?” Jianjia rushed over and pretended to hit him but just when she raised her head, her eyes lit up. Not far away, a figure walked over. Who else could it be if not Ou Yangming?
“I’m not dreaming, am I?” Jianjia rubbed her eyes.
The person in her sight still did not disappear. Jianjia became excited and shouted to the other side, “Ruler Ming!”
“Ruler Ming?”
Hearing this voice, the others were stunned for a moment, then they laughed out loud.
“Jianjia, it’s useless for you to play such a small trick. Ruler Ming is now eating in the main hall with Sect Leader and the other elders. Don’t tell me a little girl like you can call him over here?” The young man was not going to let her go. He held the long spear in his hand and looked at Jianjia.
Jianjia did not pay attention to him. She took a step forward and pushed him away. Then, she ran forward.
“Ou Yangming, no, Ruler Ming!” Jianjia called out again.
At this time, Ou Yangming looked up and saw a strange little girl running toward him.
It had been 2 years, but Jianjia’s appearance had not changed at all. She looked exactly the same as when she was on the flying boat. Naturally, Ou Yangming recognized her at a glance.
“Jianjia.” Ou Yangming smiled and called out her name.
After hearing that, Jianjia’s eyes were filled with surprise. “You still remember my name.”
This was an unexpected surprise.
She did not expect that Ou Yangming would still remember her name even though they had only met once on the flying boat.
Jianjia’s smile was as beautiful as a flower. She was so happy that her eyes narrowed.
“Little girl, you’re saying that he’s Ruler Ming. Are you sure you’re not mistaken?”
The young man who imitated Ou Yangming just now looked at Ou Yangming, who was walking toward them, and asked.
‘This is the main peak of the Mystic Sky Sect. Not everyone could enter. Could this guy be a new direct disciple or a servant on the main peak?’
“Well, this guy really looks like Ruler Ming.”
The others also looked at Ou Yangming and discussed it among themselves.
“His figure is quite similar, but he’s too young. How could Ruler Ming be so young?”
Ou Yangming and Ruler Ying were fighting on the distant horizon. Moreover, the law powers around their bodies were spread out. Those who were not strong enough could not see their appearances clearly. At most, they could only see rough outlines of them.
In their impression, Ruler Ming was so mighty, so he should at least be a middle-aged man.
“You’re quite good at acting. Once I see through your identity later, I’ll teach you a lesson!”
The youth saw that Ou Yangming did not pay attention to him, so he grunted and was very unhappy.
“Lil’ Ye, don’t talk nonsense, be careful that Ruler Ming will teach you a lesson!”
The young man’s muttering was heard. Jianjia secretly glanced at Ou Yangming. Seeing that he did not care, she rolled her eyes at the young man and shouted.
Ye Wuque laughed and pointed at Ou Yangming, “Ruler Ming? I think he might not even be my match!”
“Yes, Lil’ Ye is a genius. He has broken through and become a Venerable One at the age of 14. Your friend is only a few years older than us. He might not be a match for Lil’ Ye.”
“We’ll know after a fight,” the others also said.
Jianjia looked at these people as if they were idiots. Asking Ruler Ming, who was more powerful than their sect leader, to fight with a kid who had not grown up was simply ridiculous.
“Do you dare!” Ye Wuque seemed to believe that Ou Yangming was a fake. His eyes were filled with fighting spirit.
Jianjia often bullied him. Now that he finally found an opportunity, it was time for him to rise in front of his other friends. As long as he defeated this person, he would be able to expose Jianjia’s lies. In the future, he could use this to fight back against her. This was simply killing two birds with one stone.
Looking at the young man’s high-spirited appearance, Ou Yangming felt that it was good to be young. He shook his head and said, “I won’t compete with you.”
Ye Wuque’s expression changed slightly. He looked at Ou Yangming with bulging eyes and said, “You’re afraid.”
“Afraid?” Ou Yangming almost laughed out loud.
He could destroy tens of thousands of such little fellows with one finger. How could he be afraid of the young man?
Ou Yangming just felt that this competition was meaningless and somewhat ridiculous.
“It seems that there’s still a need to prove that I’m myself.” Ou Yangming reached out his hand with his palm facing up.
Ye Wuque’s eyes flashed with vigilance and asked, “What do you want to do?”
“Lend me your weapon for a while,” Ou Yangming said gently.
Ye Wuque looked at Ou Yangming with a guarded look, not knowing why the young fellow wanted to use his weapon.
After a moment of hesitation, Jianjia could not help but say, “Stingy fella, it’s nothing to use your weapon. It’s your honor for Ruler Ming to use your weapon! After Ruler Ming uses it, the value of your High Grade magic tool will increase greatly. Why don’t you seize this good opportunity?”
“Hmph, let’s see what you’re up to.” Ye Wuque threw the long spear in his hand.
The long spear drew a beautiful arc in the air and landed steadily in Ou Yangming’s hand.
Ou Yangming held the long spear and walked a few steps toward the empty space in front of him. Everyone’s eyes were focused on him. Everyone wanted to know what this guy was up to.
“Watch carefully. That move just now wasn’t like yours.”
Ou Yangming imitated the young man’s action just now and suddenly pointed into the distance.
With a whoosh, the air seemed to be pierced through.
Everyone was shocked. This move looked very fierce, but they did not know how powerful it was.
The long spear stopped steadily in the air.
Everyone followed the direction of the long spear and looked at the big rock in the distance. The rock did not seem to have changed at all.
“What’s this? Strong on the outside but weak on the inside?”
Just now, when the others saw Ou Yangming waving his long spear in a vigorous manner, they thought that this move would have some extraordinary destructive power.
In the end, when they looked, even the dust on the ground did not change, and the big rock in the distance did not move at all. This move was far inferior to Ye Wuque’s move just now.
At any rate, Ye Wuque still poked up the sky full of dust but this time, there was no change at all.
“Hahaha!” Ye Wuque laughed until his stomach hurt.
The others burst into laughter as well. They were almost scared by this young fellow just now, but they did not expect that he was just a liar.
Jianjia looked a little anxious. How could there be no effect at all?
She looked at Ou Yangming worriedly. ‘Could it be that the battle just now made his injuries so severe that he can’t use any spiritual power now?’
“Are you looking at the wrong spot?” Ou Yangming suddenly asked.
What did he mean?
Everyone did not understand. They followed Ou Yangming’s gaze and looked over.
All of a sudden, there was a rumble.
A barren mountain tens of thousands of meters away from them exploded. A huge mushroom-shaped cloud rose from the ground and flew into the sky. Smoke and dust covered the sky and the sun. It looked like clouds and mist were lingering.
Due to the explosion, the barren mountain completely disappeared. If the smoke and dust in the sky had not dispersed, everyone would have thought that the mountain did not exist at all.
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. Bao hid behind Jianjia and was so scared that her face turned pale. Ye Wuque was even more dumbfounded and could not believe his eyes.
‘So strong!’ This was the common thought in everyone’s mind.
At this time, a person fell from the sky. Upon seeing him, the little fellow hurriedly saluted and said, “Greetings, Senior Ximen.”
The person who came was Ximen Kuang, the school master of the Saber School. He passed by and just happened to see the explosion of the barren mountain in the distance.
“Ruler Ming, what are you…”
Ximen Kuang did not pay attention to those juniors. He looked at Ou Yangming with curiosity in his eyes.
As he said this, the faces of all the little fellows present changed drastically.
There might have been a glimmer of hope that the young fellow was not Ruler Ming, but Ximen Kuang’s words seemed to be the final word.
“Ruler Ming, he really is Ruler Ming!”
All the little guys looked at Ou Yangming with fiery eyes.
It was actually true!
Everyone felt that it was very magical. They looked at Jianjia in shock. They did not think that what Jianjia said was true.
She was not lying. Jianjia and Ruler Ming had known each other for a long time.
Ou Yangming smiled and said, “It’s nothing. I just advised this junior just now.”
His gaze moved to Ye Wuque, then he smiled and asked, “Right, young fella?”
“Yes… Yes…”
Ye Wuque’s voice was trembling. He was scared out of his wits.
This was Ruler Ming, an existence on the same level as their sect leader. Just now, Ye Wuque even wanted to challenge him. How could he not be able to think things through? That was why he would do such a thing.
Ximen Kuang’s eyes carried a hint of a smile. His voice was rough as he said, “Ruler Ming’s advice isn’t something that an ordinary person can receive. All of you must work hard and not disappoint Ruler Ming.”
“Yes.”
The voices were a little uneven. It could be seen that everyone was still in a nervous state.
“I’ll return this to you.”
Ou Yangming returned the spear to Ye Wuque.
Ye Wuque’s hands were shaking with excitement. He looked at the spear in his hands, and his eyes were burning. This was a weapon that the Ruler had used before.
After doing all this, Ou Yangming said goodbye to everyone and left.
Ximen Kuang looked at the little ones thoughtfully and also went to do his own things.
“Lil’ Ye, I’ve always treated you well, right? Show me your long spear?”
“Big Brother Wuque, I’ll use 2 High Grade magic tools to exchange for your spear, okay?”
After Ou Yangming and Ximen Kuang left, a group of people surrounded Ye Wuque. Their eyes were glowing as they looked at the weapon in his hand.
“Go, go, go!” Ye Wuque rudely pushed everyone over.
“This is a weapon used by Ruler Ming. Do you think I’m an idiot?”
He held the spear in his hand tightly as if he was afraid of losing it. He quickly walked to Jianjia’s side and said, “Young Lady Jianjia, I apologize to you. I was wrong about you just now. You really know Ruler Ming!”
“Cheh…” Jianjia pouted. “You’re not sincere at all. However, I’m magnanimous, so I’ll reluctantly accept your apology.”.
