<strong>Chapter 355 - Suppressing with power</strong>


    Huang Yu and Nanmen Tianhai were stunned at Venerable meless’s words as they stared at him.


    At first, both elders thought that Venerable meless was just trying to test Nie Li’s strength. They never thought that Ye Chong would actually want to kill Nie Li. It was a little too much. However, neither of them were in a position to expose the matter. Although they were Elders of the Divine Feathers Sect, Venerable meless was still Hierarch Skycloud’s disciple. In terms of position, Venerable meless ranked higher than the two of them.


    No matter what, Huang Yu and Nanmen Tianhai couldn’t just stand by and witness Nie Li being killed before their eyes!


    Venerable meless coldly snorted and said in a loud voice, “Ye Chong acted by himself and was too heavy with his attacks during the battle. Someone, drag him down and lock him up. He’ll be handled by the Enforcement Hall!”


    Several people jumped up onto the stage like wolves and tigers. They detained Ye Chong and took him away.


    Huang Yu immediately tried to stop Venerable meless. “Venerable meless, this situation doesn’t seem too good. Although Ye Chong was a little heavy with his attacks, he didn’t injure Nie Li very much!” Huang Yu vaguely guessed Venerable meless’s intentions; this man was trying to destroy the bridge after he’d crossed the river. Venerable meless’s methods were indeed ruthless!


    “Ye Chong disobeyed orders and took his own initiatives. Luckily, Nie Li wasn’t hurt too badly. If that’d happened, his offence would be simply unforgivable!” Venerable meless coldly snorted in raged.


    “Since we’ve alreadye this far, let this teste to an end!” Nanmen Tianhai said. Even if they had to sacrifice Ye Chong, they absolutely couldn’t sacrifice Nie Li!


    “How is this eptable?” Venerable meless overruled him on the spot. “Earlier on, the two Elders already said that you’d arrange two tests for Nie Li. How could you go back on your word?”


    Gu Bei, Lu Piao, and the rest all heard their conversation and understood what was going on. So this Venerable meless was trying to harm Nie Li!


    They had no idea how Nie Li had offended Venerable meless!


    Li Xingyun stood out and said in a loud voice, “Venerable meless, ording to the rules, neer disciples can pick their own opponents. There has never been a case like this, where their opponents were arranged for them! Even if it’s allowed, isn’t arranging an opponent like Ye Chong at the get-go a little too much?”


    Venerable meless coldly snorted at Li Xingyun’s words. “Ignorant kid. I’m talking to Huang Yu and Nanmen Tianhai, the two Elders. How is there any room for you to interrupt?’


    Venerable meless was being overbearing as Li Xingyun said indignantly, “Is Venerable meless going to suppress others with power?”


    “As a member of the East District, you’re disrespecting your elders? How dare you say that I’m suppressing others with power?! I wonder what your teachers are teaching you?” Venerable meless’s cold and severe expression swept over the few teachers of the East District. Those teachers all shifted their eyes away.


    Venerable meless was Hierarch Skycloud’s disciple. How could they dare to say anything?


    Li Xingyun felt indignant within his heart. There was no way he could say anything more. He racked his brains for a way to save Nie Li.


    By now, all the students of the East District understood what was going on. So everything had been arranged by Venerable meless. Every one of them was extremely intelligent; therefore, they could tell that Venerable meless was definitely trying to suppress Nie Li! It seemed that Nie Li have somehow offended Venerable meless!


    Since Ye Chong had been dragged away, they could tell that Venerable meless wasn’t trying to teach Nie Li a lesson; he was trying to kill Nie Li and push all the me onto Ye Chong! They all sighed in their hearts. Venerable meless was simply too ruthless.


    Luckily, Nie Li possessed the Bloodwing Saint Jiao-dragon. Otherwise, he would’ve died in grievance on the stage!


    Some of the East District’s students weren’t too bothered about it, since it was none of their business, while some students felt indignant; after all, with Venerable meless’s identity, suppressing a neer genius was too inappropriate.


    However, with Venerable meless’s identity and status, the others couldn’t say anything. Even if they did, it’d be useless.


    Huang Yu and Nanmen Tianhai were both a little enraged. Venerable meless was suppressing others with his power, but even as Elders, there was nothing they could do. Venerable meless had already imed that he wasn’t the one who ordered Ye Chong to kill Nie Li; therefore, there was nothing they could do. However, they absolutely wouldn’t allow Nie Li to suffer another round. If they allowed that to happen, Venerable meless would definitely arrange an opponent that Nie Li would be unable to win against.


    Nie Li looked at Venerable meless, Huang Yu and Nanmen Tianhai, who were arguing with one another. Venerable meless’s intentions were very obvious. Nie Li felt rather touched that the two elders, Huang Yu and Nanmen Tianhai, were speaking up on his behalf. He nced at Venerable meless. Since he’d already disyed his Bloodwing Saint Jiao-dragon, Venerable meless was probably even more desperate to get rid of him!


    However, even if Hierarch Skycloud didn’t know of the situation right now, he’d still learn about it sooner orter. When that time came, it’d be even harder for Venerable meless to obtain Hierarch Skycloud’s trust!


    Nie Li knew everything about Venerable meless from Venerable Redsoul. Venerable meless’s father had once saved Hierarch Skycloud’s life. Perhaps Hierarch Skycloud probably would not do anything to Venerable meless; however, what Venerable meless sought would probably move even further from his grasp.


    As for the [Skycloud] cultivation technique, Nie Li wasn’t interested in it in the slightest. Although the [Skycloud] cultivation technique was indeed powerful, it was still inferior to his [Heavenly God] cultivation technique!


    Although Nie Li knew that he’d have even more enemies in the future and that one of his trump cards, the Bloodwing Saint Jiao-dragon, was already revealed, his only options was to battle!


    He couldn’t back down now!


    He wanted to charge into the Central District and be one of the Sect Master’s sessor candidates. Only then would he have more time. Therefore, he had to charge forward!


    The next battle was probably unavoidable. Nie Li immediately consumed several elixirs, readjusted his cultivation, and recovered his injuries. After experiencing that huge battle, his cultivation seemed to have improved and was approaching 5-fate. The fifth fate soul was also slowly being formed.


    If he could reach 5-fate, then he’d have an even better chance of winning!


    Nie Li madly mobilised the Heavenly Energy within his body and as the Myriad Miles Rivers and Mountains Painting continued revolving within his soul realm. An endless river of Heavenly Energy flowed out from it. It only took a brief moment to fill up Nie Li’s soul realm. He felt the wounds on his body recover and his strength had also increased.


    However, trying to break through to 5-fate was still too difficult.


    Venerable meless nced at Nie Li, who was focusing on healing while seated, and snorted. He looked at Huang Yu and Nanmen Tianhai, and said, “ Nie Li is my Junior Brother. As his Senior Brother, it’s absolutely normal for me to try and understand his strength. I’ve already chosen an opponent for him. There’s no need for more words!”


    “Venerable meless, aren’t you being a little too much?” Huang Yu said with his brows furrowed.


    “Too much? This is part of our Skycloud Hall’s internal matters. Isn’t it beyond the control of the two elders?” Venerable meless coldly snorted.


    Huang Yu and Nanmen Tianhai couldn’t be certain if Nie Li’s test really was arranged by Hierarch Skycloud. However, they could guarantee that Hierarch Skycloud definitely wouldn’ty a hand on Nie Li! They had to stop Venerable meless!


    Nanmen Tianhai solemnly said, “Venerable meless, if you insist on doing so, why don’t we go speak with Hierarch Skycloud?”


    Venerable meless coldly swept an eye over Haung Yu and Nanmen Tianhai. These two old farts really were pissing him off quite a bit. He contemptuously snorted, “These two elders don’t need to speak any further in my matters!” He nced at a East District student and said, “Guo Huai, go up and test Nie Li’s strength. Remember to be lenient!”
